Chapter 180
Xin Gu looked at the young man kneeling beside him, and listened to the flattering words of old man Li.

"This young man is not talented enough to be an official. If he loses his life in the future, doesn't it mean that your family wants to find someone important in the official?"

The uncle was so angry that his face was ashen. He never thought that he would be so ashamed in front of so many people.

"Grandfather of the county, we respect you as the magistrate of the county and treat you respectfully. Even so, you shouldn't look down on others. How capable I am can be seen in black and white. Is it possible that you are more poisonous than the examiner's eyes."

Xingu's expression changed upon hearing this.

"I didn't hear wrong just now. Your father said that you admire my virtue and want to practice in front of me. So that's what you admire? If that's the case, let's drag it down like this!"

The uncle is even more unconvinced, if you can do it, you can do it, if you can't do it, you can't do it, why should you beat the board?
"As a parent officer, why do you abuse punishment?"

Xin Gu smiled slightly, looking at the disdainful young man in front of him.

"Abuse, why do you falsely accuse officials of abuse?"

Seeing the embarrassment of himself in public, Xin Gu made up his mind to give him a hard time.

The young man who was kneeling on the ground just now panicked and kowtowed to beg for mercy.

"Caomin has not experienced the world and knows that the official authority should not be offended. I also ask the county magistrate to spare Caomin's life."

Old Li knew that his son was weak and had been punished, and he didn't know what would happen in the future. In desperation, he had no choice but to ask Lin Qingruo and Li Xiaoyuan for help.

I never thought that they never paid attention to old man Li, and watched the excitement with their arms crossed.

"Official authority should not be offended. Since he is a juror, he should know this truth. What can I do if he commits crimes on his own?"

Old man Li had no choice but to persuade him.

"Xiao Yuan, Mr. Li, I beg you, old man Li, please save him! Even if we don't recognize you, he has been worthy of your brother for more than ten years, you can't just watch him play tricks for nothing, right?"

Seeing old man Li, Lin Qingruo immediately stated the conditions in a low voice.

"It's not impossible for us to save him, Xiao Yuan will only go to save my brother-in-law if you return the money you took from Xiao Yuan before."

Old man Li was furious and scolded Lin Qingruo angrily in front of everyone.

"You little outsider, I'm talking to our Li family, why are you interrupting?"

Li Xiaoyuan wanted to plead for mercy, but when he heard old man Li's words, he was immediately unhappy and pulled Lin Qingruo away.

Seeing the two of them standing by and watching, Xin Gu felt relieved and boldly slapped that person several times.

A few days later, Li Gu also came to the due date and asked about Li Xiaoyuan.

"Since I entered the border of your county, I have always boasted about your good deeds along the way. I came here this time to congratulate you, and I have something to ask."

Li Gu was not a procrastination person, so he directly said what was in his heart.

"Are you willing to become the Li family's staff? This way the Li family can pave the way for your future, and at the same time you have to work for the Li family."

At this time, Li Xiaoyuan heard the meaning of Li Gu's words, their Li family can pave the way for Li Xiaoyuan's future, and at the same time buy out his future official career, everything he does must be for the sake of the Li family.

"Although I know Yuan, I don't want to wander in the officialdom. I would like to ask Mr. Li to find another job."

Li Guxin thought that Li Xiaoyuan's character was no longer reluctant, so he had no choice but to give up and invite him.

"I knew you were going to say that before I came here. It's just that I have such a personality and I can't change it. Since this is the case, I won't force it anymore. This is the address of my new restaurant. Come and visit."

After finishing speaking, she was about to leave. Lin's mother knew that he was a visitor from Beijing, and because he had been busy all the way, she forced him to stay for dinner.

"Wait, old lady, I heard that the nobleman is a visitor from the capital. It's really not easy to travel all the way. Why don't you just stay in a country house like ours and leave after a light meal."

Li Gu declined after hearing this.

"Auntie, don't be so polite, Xiao Yuan and I are very good friends, we don't stick to etiquette."

"Since you are a good brother, you must taste Auntie's craft even more. Could it be that you look down on Auntie?"

When Li Gu heard what Lin said, he had no choice but to stay.

While Lin Qingruo and the others were preparing meals with Mother Lin in the kitchen, Li Gu was bored and played with the children.

Finding that these children had some abnormalities, and it was hard to say anything, after eating, Li Gu found an excuse to hold Lin Qingruo and Li Xiaoyuan back.

"Fortunately, I didn't know the key until I stayed for dinner. It's better for you to live in another place."

Li Xiaoyuan was puzzled, this place is fine, why change places?
Li Gu knew that Lin Qingruo was also an open-minded person, so he immediately explained.

"Just now I checked both of you during the meal, and the children have tiger hair and monkey hair on their bodies, and my guards came to report just now, and I vaguely noticed that there may be some wild animals nearby, no matter how powerful you are The opponent of the beast, it is better to leave."

Although Lin Qingruo was surprised, she never let them notice.

"So that's what happened, don't worry! We all came from farming families and we have our own way of dealing with wild animals. Besides, we've lived in this place for a long time, and it's really uncomfortable to move to another place suddenly."

Hearing that Lin Qingruo's tone was very stubborn, Li Gu could only nod his head.

"Forget it, if you want to change your residence in the future, you can contact me and I can help you."

Then he left the place with the guards.

Looking at Li Guyuan's back, Lin Qingruo and Li Xiaoyuan both heaved a sigh of relief. They knew that he was a nobleman in the capital, but they didn't know which side of the nobleman he was. He hadn't known about the monkey and tiger yet. I really want to think about it.

Unexpectedly, the next day Li Gu personally brought several guards to the door.

"Doctor Lin, Mr. Li, you are my best friend in Li Gu's life. I really don't want you to be in danger. I went home yesterday and personally selected a few guards. They are skilled in martial arts and will be able to protect you well." , and don’t need monthly money, just a few mouthfuls of food.”

Lin Qingruo couldn't laugh or cry, she only knew that Li Gu was warm-hearted, but she didn't expect him to be so caring.

"I heard that the guards of big families are all signed death contracts, and they can only be used by the master for a lifetime. How can you give them away?"

Li Gu laughed out loud.

"Because of this, I sent them to take care of your safety. They are all loyal and will not put you in any danger."

"Mr. Li, Xiao Yuan of my family is highly skilled in martial arts. I really... don't need these guards. These guards are carefully selected and probably have a greater use. Wouldn't it be overkill for you to let them protect us here? "

Lin Qingruo couldn't do it, so he could only use Li Xiaoyuan's high martial arts as an excuse. Unexpectedly, Li Gu's enthusiasm beyond imagination made Lin Qingruo helpless.

"Forget it. The future of this matter is uncertain. We, the husband and wife, didn't want you to know. The matter has come to this point, and we have nothing to do. Please, Mr. Li, come with us. I will take you to meet the beast you are talking about."
