Chapter 88 Envy
County magistrate Lu wiped the cold sweat off his brow, and his attitude changed drastically.

Zhao Tieshu sneered at County Magistrate Lu's so sensible change, opened his eyes and said nonsense, "I can't control my strength well, why would the table crack when I touch it lightly?"

"Hehehe, it doesn't get in the way, it doesn't get in the way, it's not worth much anyway." County Magistrate Lu looked at the cracked table with heartache, it was made of pear blossom wood!
Shen Xian's eyes turned slightly, as if thinking, she felt that the magistrate Lu hadn't finished speaking, if the magistrate was really so easy to talk, there was no need to specially invite them to come and lie down.

"If the county magistrate has anything else to say, you might as well just say it."

County magistrate Lu looked away from Zhao Tieshu's angry face, and said with a sigh of relief: "I'm dissatisfied with Miss Shen, this incident of banditry is a serious matter, and the casualties are not small. In a few days, the governor of the state government will send People came to check this matter, it is still necessary for Miss Shen and this official to unify the caliber, this credit..."

The county magistrate hadn't finished speaking, but Shen Xian had already understood that the magistrate wanted to thank him for his presence in this matter and take all the credit for it, but he was also afraid that he would not cooperate, so he couldn't manage to speak so easily.

After thinking about it, Shen Xian felt that credit is not important to him anyway, it's better to be a favor, so that in the future, if anyone doesn't open his eyes to provoke him, he can rely on him.

"I understand the meaning of the magistrate. The matter of suppressing the bandits was planned by the magistrate, and he discovered the conspiracy of the Lin family with a keen eye. As for the little girl, she just cooperated with the adults to act, and this scene of driving wolf and tiger came about."

Shen Xian smiled and polished up the matter, looked at County Magistrate Lu and asked, "What do you think, sir?"

The magistrate was overjoyed and praised: "Good!"

Rejecting the county magistrate's banquet, Shen Xian accompanied Zhao Tieshu to receive the bounty for suppressing the bandits, and then left the county government.

The smile on Lu County Magistrate's face gradually faded, and he stood in front of the door with a look of regret, "Why did you say that such a smart woman married a fool."

Muttering a few words to himself, County Magistrate Lu thought of Zhao Tieshu's eyes like a lone wolf again, and the one who didn't come felt chills in his heart and shivered.

"It's weird, it's weird, forget it, don't think about it!"

Shen Xian took most of the credit for suppressing the bandits, so when she received the money, she also got a share, and her share was even more than Zhao Tieshu's, the two of them added up to 30 taels.

30 taels of silver is not a small amount for ordinary people, but it is only half a palm-sized ingot in your hand.

Zhao Tieshu carefully wrapped the silver and put it in his arms, the faint smile on his face was never heard for a moment.

Shen Xian took his arm and asked strangely: "You are so happy after receiving the money?"

"Ok!"

Zhao Tieshu nodded heavily, and his tone was mixed with excitement, "With the money, I can make up the wedding for my wife."

wedding……

Shen Xian recited these two words silently, a trace of expectation rose in his heart.

When she first arrived in this world, the original owner had already married Zhao Tieshu, so she was forced to accept the offer.

But now, she really likes this man beside her, he is self-disciplined, obedient, and knows how to love his wife, but occasionally he is a little silly.

But being stupid has its advantages. He is straightforward and doesn't have so many twists and turns, which is more than many people.

How many people's feelings have come to naught amid suspicion and selfishness.

"Okay, let's pick a good day for the wedding!"

Shen Xian was in a good mood, bouncing and bouncing when walking, laughter resounded in the street like a string of silver bells.

There were scattered people in the tea houses on the side of the road, and there were two or three shouts from the book talkers.

Xu Wanqing sat on the teahouse and watched Shen Xian's figure disappearing into the street, she couldn't help but sigh, "It's really enviable."

The maid Tao'er opened her eyes and said with a smile: "Ma'am, now the Lin family has collapsed, and the coquettish fox has also been arrested by the government. From now on, this family will be at your discretion, good times are yet to come."

Xu Wanqing sneered and said: "This man is a stealing cat. With Lin Yulian, I'm afraid there will be Wang Yulian and Li Yulian in the future. Our master is not as well-behaved as Miss Shen's husband."

Speaking of Lin Yulian, Tao'er thought of the way Lin Yulian was crying for her father and mother when she was taken away by the government this morning, but the master just watched with a blank expression, for fear of hurting herself.

"Well, it's not a good thing to marry. A couple of days and a hundred days of kindness are all deceitful." It was Tao'er, a girl in Huaichun's grade, who suddenly lost her yearning for love.

Xu Wanqing's eyes were gloomy, and she was noncommittal to her words.

It was already noon when we returned to the village, and the smoke from the cooking in the village was wafting up, exuding the aroma of various meals.

Passing by Caishikou, Shen Xian and Zhao Tieshu bought a catty of beef and two catties of pork ribs, intending to reward themselves.

Stir-fried beef with green peppers has a ruddy color and a tangy aroma. The beef tastes strong and delicious, which makes people salivate sharply.

After eating the salty and fresh beef, it is natural to have a bite of pork rib soup. The milky white soup is mellow and delicious but not greasy, with the sweetness of the supplementary corn in it.

"Phew, it's great to be human."

Shen Xian finished a big bowl of pork rib soup beautifully, clutching her stomach and expressing a burst of emotion.

And Zhao Tieshu had already finished eating at this time, and sat at the dinner table frowning.

After hesitating for a while, Shen Xian asked: "What's the matter? Doesn't the soup suit your mouth?"

Zhao Tieshu shook his head quickly and said, "Lady, do you know...how about the wedding?"

This question immediately caught Shen Xian's attention. All she could think of was the scene of a bride getting married in TV dramas. If she really wanted to ask about the process, she didn't know what to do.

"This……"

Shen Xian thought about her own situation, and felt that it was a bit complicated. First of all, welcoming her relatives was a difficult task. Her father joined the army and has not returned yet, life and death are uncertain, and it is impossible to go back to the uncle's house for a formality.

As for whether Zhao Tieshu has any relatives, what should he do when he visits the church.

Etiquette, regulations, master of ceremonies... Shen Xian's headache just thinking about it.

And the most suffocating thing is that they can't even invite anyone to make up the wedding...

Shen Xian calculated that there are only a handful of people who have a good relationship with him.

When Shen Xian was feeling worried, Aunt Zhao also heard about the glorious things she had done, so she came to express her congratulations.

When Shen Xian saw Aunt Zhao, his eyes lit up immediately, isn't there someone here!If you can’t figure it out yourself, you can ask her!

"Mother, come and sit in the room, I have something to ask you."

With a smile on his face, Shen Xian invited Aunt Zhao into the room, and then expressed his thoughts.

When Aunt Zhao heard this, she immediately said: "This is a good thing! You didn't do anything when you got married, but now that life is getting better, you really should make up for it!"

Although it was Shen Xian who held the wedding, Aunt Zhao's face was full of radiance at the moment, and she took all the trivial matters of the wedding on her body, making Shen Xian feel a little embarrassed.
