The general's wife is pretending to be weak again

Chapter 96

"What happened outside?" Mo Zhu asked.

"The little one heard that there was a thief in the village, so he went to the government to report it to the official. Right now, the patrolling adults are outside. The young one hasn't dealt with the government, so I asked the young lady to come forward." When Manager Xiao spoke, he kept using greasy words He sized up Mu Qingyu with his eyes.

Mu Qingyu turned her head displeased.

"That's not the official servant you invited," Mo Zhu looked worried, "Why can't you deal with them? How can our young lady, the second lady of Dingguo Duke's Mansion, go out and show her face?"

Manager Xiao spread his hands and said with a smile: "The little one is afraid and dare not go out. Anyway, the police officers are waiting outside, so it's better for the young one to ask someone to send them away."

After all, Manager Xiao seemed to be choosing among the onlookers.

These are honest farmers who have never dealt with officials in their lives.

Seeing Guanshi Xiao stretching out his fingers, they fled in all directions.

The officials outside seemed to be unable to wait any longer. Hearing the noise outside, they were about to come in.

"Miss, let's go back and hide." Mo Zhu urged.

If those officials really come in, what should they do if one of them offends Mu Qingyu?
Mu Qingyu remained motionless, and said calmly, "It's too late."

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw several officials coming in from the door, each with a knife on their waist.

They rushed in directly, walked up to Steward Xiao, and asked, "Didn't you say you were looking for your steward, did you find it after searching for so long?"

Manager Xiao accompanied him with a smile: "I found it, I found it, it's right there!"

After speaking, he pointed to Mu Qingyu who was standing in the distance, and all the officials looked at Mu Qingyu in unison.

Xu Yuzhou looked over, and saw a beautiful young girl standing under the shade of a tree, her eyes were as bright as the stars in the sky, her hair was not decorated, and a few strands of hair were waving mischievously around her ears .

Xu Yuzhou thought of the New Year pictures that his mother pasted on the wall during the Chinese New Year when he was a child. If the fairy in the picture came out, it must look like this.

"Master Xu," an official came to Xu Yuzhou's side, "That woman looks weak and weak, she doesn't seem to be in charge of Zhuangzi."

Even if he is in charge, he can't control the bunch of people in Zhuangzi!
Mu Qingyu frowned slightly. Those people seemed to be talking about her, so she simply turned around and walked into Zhuangzi.

"Hey! Second Miss, you're leaving, who's in charge here!" Manager Xiao said exaggeratedly, and was about to catch up with his thick legs.

Xu Yuzhou reached out with his long arm, grabbed Guanshi Xiao by the collar, and pulled him back with ease.

The collar was too small, but Guanshi Xiao felt that he was going to suffocate, so he begged for mercy: "My lord, spare me!"

"Speak! Who is in charge of your Zhuangzi?" Xu Yuzhou raised his eyebrows and asked.

"that is……"

Before Guanshi Xiao could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Bo Lin: "My lord, this way please. Our second lady invites you to sit in the room."

Xu Yuzhou let go of Manager Xiao, and led his people to follow Lin Bo inside.

Seeing Lin Bo, Guanshi Xiao gritted his teeth.If it wasn't for the fear of being discovered, he would have wanted to deal with Lin Bo long ago.

This is really getting in the way.

He snorted and followed them.

Lin Bo led the official into the west, and went into the clean wing room.

"Adults, please have some tea and rest. If you have any questions, it's the same if you ask me." Lin Bo said respectfully.

The tea was prepared on the table, Xu Yuzhou just sat down, and his subordinates poured him a bowl of tea.

"How did it burn over there?" Xu Yuzhou asked.

"The sky is dry and everything is dry. If you put more sundries, it will burn." Lin Bo replied fluently.

"What about the thief?"

"Except for Manager Xiao, the one who went to invite the adults, the rest of us have no losses, and we haven't seen any thieves."

Xu Yuzhou frowned, "Xiao is your steward? Then why did he drag us to Zhuangzi to find your steward?"

"The person Guanshi Xiao is referring to is Zhuangzi's master, the young lady of Duke Ding's mansion," Lin Bo said.

Sure enough, when the group of officials heard the name of Duke Dingguo's Mansion, they all stopped talking and did not dare to make trouble.

There was no expression on Xu Yuzhou's handsome face, "Is it Miss Dingguo's Mansion who made a marriage contract with General War God?"

Lin Bo was surprised, but still nodded truthfully.

Some timid officials apologized to Uncle Lin, "It was really abrupt for us to barge in. Please tell the old lady that we didn't do it on purpose."

Everyone else chimed in.

Xu Yuzhou reached out and patted the table, and the people who were chattering just now immediately fell silent.

Xu Yuzhou's attitude was neither humble nor overbearing: "Can you let me meet the second lady and ask me a few words so that I can go back and return to my life."

If Xu Yuzhou looked like he wanted to climb higher branches, Lin Bo could categorically refuse.But he acted impartially and honestly, which made Lin Bo hesitate for a while.

"Uncle Lin," Mo Zhu did not know when he came to the door, "Miss invites this lord to come over and talk."

"Okay, sir, this way please."

Xu Yuzhou stood up and straightened his clothes, feeling an inexplicable feeling in his heart.

Xu Yuzhou followed Mo Zhu to the next room, and saw a man and a woman sitting in the room, both dressed in luxurious clothes, both of them were naturally noble.

Although Xu Yuzhou had an official position, when he saw the two of them, he bowed his hands and saluted.

Mu Qingyu felt bored, anyway, she had already taken off the veil covering her face in the room.

"My lord, you are welcome, please sit down." Mu Qingyu said with a smile.

"Thank you." Xu Yuzhou sat down with pursed lips.

Mu Jiayan had just finished drinking the hot water and became more awake, "Could you please tell me, when our manager Xiao went to see you, what did you say?"

"Probably when the sun was about to rise, he came to report to the officials, saying that there was a thief in Zhuangzi. No matter what other questions he asked, he refused to say anything, and kept asking us to come to Zhuangzi and find the manager of Zhuangzi." Xu Yu Zhou made no secrets.

Mu Qingyu was silent for a moment, then said softly to Mu Jiayan: "Brother is right, this Guanshi Xiao is really strange."

Mu Jiayan smiled reassuringly at Mu Qingyu, "What are you going to do?"

Mu Qingyu frowned, turned to Xu Yuzhou, and said, "My lord, this Manager Xiao is very suspected of being a prisoner and stealing himself. Please take him away and put him in a prison for a good trial."

Seeing Mu Qingyu's beautiful black and white eyes looking at him, clearly reflecting his own shadow, Xu Yuzhou nodded in response.

Mu Jiayan coughed again, and after being out for a long time, he was already exhausted.

The servant hurriedly helped him with his back, Mu Qingyu held the scarf, very worried.Mu Jiayan was all for her. If Mu Jiayan was not here today, Mu Qingyu, who has never experienced such things, would not know how to be manipulated by others.

And Manager Xiao even invited an official to come over.

If Mu Qingyu was still ignorant and ignorant of world affairs in her previous life, she might have run back crying after being disturbed by the people in Zhuangzi and frightened by the officials.
