Chapter 3

The magistrate of Shu County came to visit with two hands full of gifts.

Xiao Huaijin dropped her chopsticks coldly, "What are you doing here?!"

Seeing Xiao Huaijin, the county magistrate smiled obsequiously, "Why is Mr. Xiao so angry? The younger one was entrusted by His Royal Highness King Hui to visit you two."

While speaking, the county magistrate's eyes fluttered around, obviously probing.

"Heh... It's really a tiger falling in Pingyang and being bullied by a dog! The little county magistrate dares to come and see my joke!"

Xiao Huaijin suddenly lifted the dining table and roared angrily.

The porcelain bowl shattered to the ground, Yin was startled slightly.

In my impression, her nominal husband is quite gentle and courteous.

"What are you talking about Mr. Xiao? This official is also very kind." The county magistrate Pi took out a letter from his arms, and said with a smile, "His Royal Highness Hui Wang intercepted a letter the day before yesterday, and it was reported by the local officials... ...The previous empress embezzled the donation, how do you think about this letter?"

Xiao Huaijin's pupils shrank suddenly, grabbed the letter in disbelief, and looked at it with a glance.

Yin slightly tilted his head in meditation.

Queen first?
She vaguely remembered that it was Xiao Huaijin's biological mother, who had passed away for more than three years.

Report dead people for corruption and bribery?

Pure looking for trouble!
Yin Qingwei quickly understood the purpose of the magistrate's visit.

"no, I can not……"

Xiao Huaijin squatted down with a pale complexion, helpless.

But from Yin Qingqing's perspective, he happened to see the blue veins on Xiao Huaijin's forehead bursting.

Is he forbearing?

Yin gently held Xiao Huaijin's hand, but looked at the county magistrate, begging for mercy in a soft voice, "Master magistrate, now my husband and I are just poor people in Sichuan, and we will never be able to stand up for life. "

"In this life, I only wish to grow old safely. The affairs of the court... all depend on His Royal Highness Hui Wang."

She lightly squeezed the back of Xiao Huaijin's hand.

Xiao Huaijin raised her eyes slightly.

The four eyes met, and the dark waves flowed.

"You bitch! Why does my mother's innocence depend entirely on King Hui?" Xiao Huaijin vigorously shook off Yin Qingqing's hand, pointed at her nose and cursed, "Are you still thinking about King Hui?! See my joke?!"

"Have you been demoted to become a commoner? You still think of yourself as an onion! Why are you yelling? If it weren't for you, how could I come to such a place!"

Yin gently poked his neck to argue with him, and the two quickly argued endlessly.

The county magistrate saw the reaction of the two and quietly exited the dilapidated thatched cottage.

He quickly edited a letter: Your Highness King Hui, the goldfish has sunk in the pond, but it is still usable if you pour it out.

Carrier pigeons fluttered and flew, leaving white silhouettes on the horizon.

"gone."

Yin gently looked at the white shadow in the sky, and said softly.

Xiao Huaijin looked at Yin Qingqing with complicated eyes.

She reacted so quickly just now, and she acted together with him in a good show of divorced husband and wife, dispelling the county magistrate's suspicion...

Yin gently sorted out the leftovers on the ground, but didn't mention the matter just now, but said with a smile, "Husband, when I was digging bamboo shoots in the mountain this morning, I found some wild potatoes, would you like to accompany me to go?" Dig it back and plant it as dry food?"

As he said that, Yin gently pursed his lips and chuckled in embarrassment, his face a little shy.

"The wild potatoes are too big, I can't move them..."

Her eyes were wet, as charming as a deer.

Xiao Huaijin couldn't say no to it.

The two simply cleaned up the debris of the place, and went up the mountain with a basket and farm tools on their backs.

Yin Qingqing led the way ahead, her figure nimbly shuttled through the dense forest, and soon led Xiao Huaijin to a flat ground.

"It's here..."

The two quickly dug up a lot of wild potatoes and filled the basket to the brim.

Just as he was about to leave, Yin Weiwei discovered the treasure by accident, "Huh? Huajiao!"

She pulled down the peppercorns in surprise, and carefully picked off the peppercorns, smiling like a flower.

"Wow... and wild peppers? Green peppers...star anise?! Hahaha... tonight's spicy rabbit head can be arranged!"

Yin Qingqing held a bunch of seasonings in his arms and was overjoyed.

What a treasure!

When she raised her head, she bumped into a pair of dark eyes.

"The daughter of the prime minister who does not leave the gate of the prime minister's mansion...does she know so clearly about the wild things in the mountains?"

Xiao Huaijin stared at Yin Gently for a moment, and it was self-evident to explore and doubt.

Yin Qingyuan felt a "thump" in his heart, but soon lowered his eyes to look lonely, and smiled wryly.

"So what about the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion... My father is not the only one of my daughter." Yin squatted gently on the ground, pinched his thighs with his hands without a trace, and forcefully forced two tears.

"After my mother passed away, my father married Mrs. Zhao as his successor... Mrs. Zhao publicly praised me and secretly demoted me. The study room is full of miscellaneous books."

"These things are all from miscellaneous books."

The teardrops hung in Yin Qingqing's eyes, stubborn and pitiful.

The thin frost on Xiao Huaijin's eyebrows dissipated a little.

It turns out...Yin Weiqing has the same situation as him.

But the suspicion in his heart did not completely dissipate, Xiao Huaijin secretly winked somewhere.

Check Yin Qingqing carefully.

A black shadow flashed across the dense forest.

"You are also a poor man."

Xiao Huaijin handed over a handkerchief, without saying anything more, took the training from Yin Qingqing's arms with her lowered eyes, and put it in the back basket.

Yin let out a sigh of relief.

Xiao Huaijin was probably reincarnated from a lotus root, otherwise how could she be so thoughtful.

This test has probably passed, and she needs to be more cautious in the future.

"But I have a husband, so I'm not pitiful anymore." Yin Qingqing said sweetly.

Xiao Huaijin, "...you can laugh a little more fakely."

This man doesn't understand style.

Yin pursed his lips lightly, and lit a flint to ignite the useless grass roots he had sorted out when digging potatoes.

"What are you doing?" Xiao Huaijin asked suspiciously, "Are you afraid that someone will find this treasure land and destroy it on purpose?"

"No, I read in a book that the residue after burning plants is called plant ash, which can benefit the growth of plants and the harvest of food, so I want to try it."

Xiao Huaijin's eyes lit up instantly.

Plant ash has such a big contribution?
If it can be promoted, it will greatly reduce the incidence of famine!

Therefore, Xiao Huaijin squatted down with interest, observed Yin Qingqing's movements, and then said, "Let me try too?"

Yin moved slightly to the side.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Huaijin hit flint against the wind.

Yin Qingwei stretched out his hand to stop it, and said in surprise, "Do you want to burn the whole mountain?!"

"Ok?"

Doubt appeared in Xiao Huaijin's eyes.

Yin lightly and funnyly supported his shoulders, trying to change his direction.

"My lord, if you burn a fire on the mountain, you have to go against the wind... oh!"

Yin Qingqing accidentally tripped over a dead wood branch, leaned forward uncontrollably, and threw herself into Xiao Huaijin's arms.

Her lips happened to land on Xiao Huaijin's neck, and the scorching heat was sprayed out on purpose.
