The next day, when Xia Kun woke up, he found that the place next to him had already been cold, and An Yu didn't know how long he had been up.
He got dressed and was about to go find An Yu, but saw her coming in with breakfast.
"I learned how to make pancakes from Sister Mu, and also cooked some preserved egg and lean meat porridge. How about you try it?"
An Yu got up early and didn't even comb his hair in order not to disturb Xia Kun while he rested. At this time, he went back to his room with his long hair and thin clothes.
Xia Kun took the dinner plate she was holding and shook her hand. It was indeed ice cold.
"I get up early every day and have breakfast outside. You don't have to prepare it for me."
"But..." An Yu wrung her fingers. "If you don't use me for anything, then what kind of Mrs. Xia am I?"
"You just need to be yourself." Xia Kun put the dinner plate on the table and set out the dishes. "Come and eat!"
"Brother Xia..." An Yu walked up to him, "You...do you have someone you like?"
Xia Kun: "..."
"I knew it, so you married me because you pitied me?" An Yu's face turned pale.
Xia Kun took a deep breath: "No."
"What?" An Yu looked at him.
"I don't have anyone I like." Xia Kun said.
When An Yu heard this, he felt a little happy.
However, she soon stopped laughing.
I don’t have anyone I like, so I don’t like her, is that what you mean?
Xia Kun noticed something was wrong in the atmosphere, but he couldn't figure out what was wrong.
The two of them ate breakfast quietly.
"Are the pancakes burnt?" An Yu asked.
Xia Kun took a big bite and said calmly: "No."
"Oh." An Yu stirred the porridge, feeling increasingly disappointed.
"I'll go check on that liar later. Go back and tell your mother not to worry." Xia Kun said, "If she bullies you again, just ignore her and I'll handle it."
An Yu looked at Xia Kun's mature face and felt as if he had taken a reassurance.
No matter what, he is very good to her now, and there is no one else better than him, and that's enough.
As for everything else, why force it?
Lu Yi was looking at the tax account books handed over by Wen Wensong.
As a county magistrate, he not only has to uphold justice for the people and be responsible for various cases, but also manages the economy, education, medical care, taxation, etc. of the entire Hubei City.
Fortunately, he had already assigned these tasks to his trustworthy subordinates, otherwise he would not have been able to do it even if he was exhausted.
Gao Yamen came in from outside and said to Lu Yi: "Master Lu, there are new clues in the case of the girl's disappearance, but the more I investigate, the more uneasy I am. My lord, do you really want to continue the investigation?"
Xia Kun happened to come in and handed the news to Lu Yi: "This is the news I got."
Before Lu Yi could speak, Gao Yamen took it and looked through it. The more he looked at it, the more frightened and uneasy he became.
"Your information is more comprehensive than mine, and you have even found out the evidence. But you have also seen that we cannot afford to offend this person!"
Xia Kun looked at Lu Yi: "What do you think we should do? If we don't care, this is not under our jurisdiction, and it would be nosy to come forward. Besides, we can't afford to offend that person. If we don't care, someone will appear every once in a while.
The girl disappeared, and those were living lives. The girl named Wang Xiuyue also spoke up, saying that they were locked up in a place and living a life worse than death, and that those were girls from good families."
"This is the first time I've heard you say so many words." Gao Yamen muttered.
Xia Kun kept looking at Lu Yi, as if he wanted to see into his heart through his eyes.
Lu Yi was very talented. The fact that he could reach his current position in such a short period of time also shows that he had the means. But that was before he was an official. Now that he is an official, does he dare to take this risk?
"Check." Lu Yi said calmly.
"Do you really want to investigate?" Gao Yamen asked, "If we don't do it right, not only will we not be able to save our lives, but our family members may also be affected."
"Wealth can be obtained through danger. How can we obtain it without taking risks?" Lu Yi said calmly, "Isn't every adventure an opportunity? Opportunities and adventures coexist. It all depends on how you do it."
"Okay, since I recognize you anyway, you can do whatever you say." Gao Yamen said.
"There is one more thing." Xia Kun took out another piece of information from his arms. "A liar has appeared recently. This person is very cunning. According to my investigation, he has deceived no less than ten people, all of whom are women of all ages.
"
"I'll leave this matter to you," Lu Yi said. "You can arrange whatever manpower you need."
Needless to say, Xia Kun's strength was more than enough to deal with a liar, this is what Lu Yi thought.
He now focuses on paying attention to the case of the missing girl.
As Xia Kun and Gao Yayi said, it was a bit risky for him to decide to take charge of this case. But now that he has decided, he cannot retreat. He must make sure nothing goes wrong.
Mu Siyu left in a hurry in the morning and forgot to bring the design drawing she had drawn overnight yesterday, but it was her who collected the thing. The two girls didn't know where they kept it, so they had to go there in person.
"Miss Li." Mu Siyu saw Li Hongshu at the county government office, with surprise flashing in her eyes.
Li Hongshu was exhausted and looked extremely haggard. In a short period of time, she seemed to have aged, and the aura in her eyes was gone and lifeless.
"Mrs. Lu." Li Hongshu nodded towards her and continued walking outside.
Mu Siyu watched her go out and asked the yamen officer who escorted her out: "What is she doing here?"
Considering the grievances between the Li family and their family, I am afraid that I will never want to step into the Lu family's territory in this life. Li Hongshu's appearance here is definitely not voluntary, there must be something going on.
"A liar has appeared recently and defrauded many women of their money. This Miss Li is one of the people who was deceived."
"So outrageous."
"No."
Maybe it was because of Li Hongshu, or maybe she wanted to know what happened to the liar. A few days later, Mu Siyu asked the liar what the follow-up was.
The liar is very smart and is good at disguise. In other words, the liar who has been deceived by more than a dozen women doesn't have the same face, so he is so confident.
It's just that the liar had calculated everything and underestimated Xia Kun's abilities.
It only took him one day to expose his disguise technique, and even caught the other party in disguise and brought him to justice.
Dr. Zhu's medical clinic was opened. Everyone in the Lu family, including Lu Yi, came to support it. When Mu Siyu pushed Mrs. Tong there, she saw a woman following Dr. Zhu. The woman was particularly attentive to Dr. Zhu.
"You are here." When Dr. Zhu saw everyone in the Lu family, his eyes stayed on Mrs. Tong.
Mrs. Tong's face looked unhappy and she said to Dr. Zhu, "Congratulations!"
Dr. Zhu smiled and said, "Thank you."
Mu Siyu looked at the woman: "Uncle Zhu, that is..."
Doctor Zhu looked back and knew who Mu Siyu was asking, and said with a headache: "The patient who was cured not long ago heard that I was opening a medical clinic in the city and insisted on coming to help."
