The county magistrate has no time to save the world

Chapter 31 Sun Carpenter and a lot of money

"Why are you crazy?" Zheng Nian woke up and found Chen Xuan'er by his side.

Although the two are in the same house, they live in two wing rooms, which are not connected.

Chen Xuan'er was in a drowsy sleep so she scolded her, when she opened her eyes, Zheng Nian was already getting dressed.

Turned over and sat up, "Where is there someone who scolds people early in the morning!"

"What are you doing here?" Zheng Nian shook the dry uniform and put it on his body, adding three new patches last night.

"I..." Chen Xuan'er didn't make up what she was thinking, she lowered her head and pouted, "I'm afraid! Someone carried me to the yard in the middle of the night! Who isn't afraid?"

Zheng Nian looked helplessly at Chen Xuan'er who was dressed simply on the bed, "Do you still want to get married?"

"I'm already married!" Chen Xuan'er clutched a corner of the quilt, "You... you still hugged me last night! After I came tonight, you put your giant leg on top of me and called my name! "

"Wait a few days for the storm to pass. In fact, you can leave. You have also seen that from now on, you will often be carried to the yard at night when you follow me. If I drink too much or I am not at home, I will be carried to On the street, I carried it to a small black room and was beaten by a group of people." Zheng Nian said seriously.

After last night, he understood one thing from Wu Siyan's mouth, even though the other party said it very euphemistically: he was not capable of protecting Chen Xuan'er, not even anyone.

Chen Xuan'er pursed her lips, "Can't you learn martial arts to protect me?"

"When I practice until no one in the capital dares to think of you, I guess even the yellow dog outside the door has already kissed you secretly." Zheng Nian said honestly, "I'm just an ordinary person, I'll fight back with my life There is only one life to fight for, if I die, don't you still have to remarry?"

"I won't listen! I won't listen! No matter what I say, I won't leave!" Chen Xuan'er covered her ears, shook her head, and her black hair, which was as long as her height, was flying all over the bed.

"What a fool."

Zheng Nian held back his anger and left the room.

When we arrived at the Yamen of Chang'an County, the master and Xin Delong were doing Tai Chi in the courtyard, and the Zhuang and Zao classes followed suit.

Zheng Nian was promoted today. I heard that the leaders of the strong class and the Zao class were inexplicably pulled by the neck last night, and the bodies of the whole family were hung neatly in the yard.

I guess it was Jin Yiwei who did it.

Those two bosses had met once before, people's sorrows and joys didn't make sense, Zheng Nian just sighed.

Zheng Nian, who is now considered a member of the party committee, joined the first row of Tai Chi with a special status.

"Three lines?" Master asked.

Zheng Nian was taken aback.

"Master asked you if it's okay for you to take care of all three shifts?" Xin Delong closed his eyes, cultivating himself.

"Go back to master, of course." Zheng Nian said.

"Let's go." The master said.

Zheng Nian was stunned again.

"Master said yes." Xin Delong's hands flowed smoothly.

The biggest difficulty in doing things here is actually understanding the master's words. Zheng Nian has no confidence in facing this huge challenge.

When Zheng Nian went to mention Zhou Dong, he saw the prison cell where the scholar once lived.

The pillows and bedding on the bed are neatly arranged.

As if no one lived there.

He brought Zhou Dong to the Zhengda Guangming Hall, Chang'an County Yamen's parent officer Xin Delongxin turned the screen to sit, and the guards on both sides shouted mighty.

Ascension.

"What's your name!" Sin Delong asked.

"My lord... Zhou Dong!" Zhou Dong looked down at the hall and replied.

Xin Delong nodded, took a sip of tea, and the corner of his mouth moved slightly, "I seem to have asked."

Zheng Nian pretended not to hear.

"Ask!" Xin Delong pointed at Zheng Nian.

"Two heads and a corpse were found in your oil tank last night." Zheng Nian said, "According to the investigation, it is the head of Zhang Tailor's family, and the other corpse is Zhang Tailor's wife. How do you explain?"

In fact, in Zheng Nian's eyes, Zhou Dong was not suspicious, but it was impossible for him to say such things to adults, and the necessary process still had to go.

Zhou Dong yelled that he was wronged, "My lord! I am so wronged! I don't even know about it!"

"Hit!" Xin Delong sent a word.

"Wait..." Zheng Nian approached in a low voice, "It's not too late to call later, I'll ask a few questions first."

"Hit it later!" Xin Delong said calmly, leaning on the official chair.

Zhou Dong lay on the ground, trembling like a piece of mochi that just passed autumn.

"Let me ask you, did you see clearly who was lying on the bed that day?" Zheng Nian asked.

"Tailor Zhang must be there! The angle of the moonlight is exactly there!" Zhou Dongdao, "But... the people beside me... I didn't see clearly."

Nodding, leaning against Xin Delong's ear, "I'm done asking."

"Is it him?" Xin Delong was curious.

"Probably not." Zheng Nian said.

In the end, he was beaten ten times, and Zhou Dong was thrown into prison again.

Zheng Nian arrived at the morgue, "A lot!"

No one responded.

"A lot?" He called twice, but there was still no response. Zheng Nian patted his forehead and remembered that Qian Haoduo should have married away today.

Sure enough, when Xu Zhu walked in, he explained, "Boss, I heard, I heard... You called, the Qian family girl got married, and I will send her over in the morning."

Zheng Nian, who is full of promises, forgets his own words just like Mr. Xin, who keeps his promises.

"Do you know the address?" Zheng Nian asked.

"I know I know I know." Xu Zhu said.

The two changed into casual clothes and walked out from the side door. Zheng Nian went to the shop to buy some jewelry, made a lot of good dishes, packed them in food boxes, and finally arrived in Changle County led by Xu Zhu.

The carpenter's house is in the alley, and there are quite a lot of people here. There are cooks sharpening knives in a row on the left and right, drunks reclined after drinking too much, prostitute girls with beautiful branches, and strong men who look at girls with unruly eyes.

Zheng Nian knocked on the door of the carpenter's house.

The door was opened by a young man with a missing leg and a money bag hanging in his arms.

There was a bunch of flies buzzing around him.

A rotten smell came, Zheng Nian didn't say anything, just cupped his hands, "Carpenter Sun?"

"Oh, yes, you have work to do?" Carpenter Sun nodded, without moving away, and said in a low voice, "I won't answer the call, I've been very busy these days."

Zheng Nian had nothing in his hand, Xu Zhu was carrying something, but the other party didn't see anything.

"Okay, I know..." Before Zheng Nian finished speaking, the wooden door closed again.

"This one?"

Xu Zhu nodded, "When the delivery came...there was no one here, and many of them didn't let me wait, so I came back first."

Zheng Nian patted Xu Zhu on the shoulder, "Wait for me at the alley."

"Okay." Xu Zhu had a stupid mouth but a smart heart, so he didn't dare to ask any questions.

Zheng Nian turned around to a corner and climbed up the beam.

The yard is not big, similar to Zhou Dong's, ten paces square.

A row of woodworkers' tools were placed in the middle, and sawdust fell all over the floor.

It seems that they are making sedan chairs, and the materials used are very exquisite. It is estimated that the materials brought by the workers, such as huanghuali wood, are surprisingly large.

There was more than one person in the yard. Zheng Nian saw Qian Haoduo, who was holding a teacup with a nervous expression on his face, and Carpenter Sun who was chopping wood profusely with sweat, and a supervisor sitting next to Qian Haoduo holding blueprints. He was dressed in unusual clothes. .
