Yan Ning saluted Lin Xu solemnly and bowed to the ground!
...
After Yan Ning left excitedly, Xia Dahai walked in.
"Sir, Hu Guishan is still waiting outside!"
"Let him in!"
Lin Xu didn't want to give up on Hu Guishan completely yet. After waiting for him for so long, it was almost done.
"yes!"
Xia Dahai followed the order and quickly brought Hu Guishan over.
"Sir, I'm here to apologize!"
When he walked up to Lin Xu, Hu Guishan said this as the first sentence he spoke.
"What are you asking for?"
Lin Xu stared at him sharply, but his tone of voice was very calm.
"Today, my husband was ambushed by bandits in Heishuigou, but I failed to receive the news in time and reported it to my husband..."
While Hu Guishan was talking, he glanced at Lin Xu secretly. When he saw Lin Xu's eyes as cold as ice, he couldn't help but feel cold in his heart!
"Did you not receive the news, or did you deliberately fail to report it to me after receiving the news? Or was it even possible that you, Master Hu, was behind my ambush today?"
Lin Xu didn't hide it at all and said these words directly.
"I really didn't receive the news! My brother who was stationed in Heishuigou sent me a message afterwards. He said that Pei Tong and Deng Fei brought a large number of bandits down the mountain this time. They only said that they were going to collect another crop of grain.
Who knew they would actually come here to ambush Mr.!"
"My brother was also worried that Heishui Gou had another purpose, and even asked other bandits specifically. However, Heishui Gou was very secretive today. Except for a few leaders, no one else knew about their plan!"
"In addition, Heishui Gou seems to have realized that there may be some illegal activities in the cottage, so they have imposed martial law on the entire cottage and no one is allowed to go out casually!"
"So, I only found out about this after my husband was ambushed..."
"Sir, everything I say is true. If there is any falsehood, I will die badly! Let our Hu family have no descendants!"
When Hu Guishan said these words, Lin Xu had been looking at him coldly. Through Hu Guishan's eyes and the subtle expressions on his face, Lin Xu felt that Hu Guishan was not lying.
In addition, Hu Guishan did not hesitate to swear that the Hu family would have no descendants, which was considered cruel enough!
You know, people of this era have a deep-seated concept of carrying on the family lineage. This is a first-class event! If you fail to give birth to a son and pass on the incense, you will definitely die in peace!
As an emperor, if you don't have a son, the country will change hands.
As an ordinary person, if you do not have a son, the family property accumulated by your ancestors will be divided up by other clan members, which is the so-called "eating out the family"!
Therefore, after comprehensive analysis, Lin Xu finally decided to trust Hu Guishan again!
However, his tone was still cold: "You should know that I always value hard work and don't like to listen to empty talk! If you want to prove your innocence, then do it for me!"
"Excuse me, sir, what do you want me to do? Even if I go through fire and water, I won't hesitate!"
