Chapter 528 Pros and Cons
Chapter 528 Pros and Cons
In the afternoon, Captain He came to Yuqian Hutong and said to Shi Liu when he saw her, "Miss Shi Liu, you were right! This Lei Bao is not an ordinary person. He is a wanted bandit in Dacheng Prefecture! He was caught in Daming Prefecture this time, which is also an achievement of our county.
The master said that he had to thank Miss Pomegranate this time. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have been able to catch the thunder leopard!"
It turns out that Lei Bao did nothing good. She said that since his elder brother was such a wicked man, his younger brother must not be much better. It's true. One of the brothers is a bandit and the other is a thief. They are indeed a family.
Shi Liu waved her hands quickly, "No, no, it's all due to the merits under Lord Zhang's rule."
Then he asked Captain He, "Did Lei Bao explain how he targeted me and followed me?"
She was even more curious about how this Lei Bao knew that she would come to the temple fair today and was lurking beside her accurately, waiting for an opportunity to assassinate her.
To be honest, if her sixth sense hadn't kicked in at that moment and she hadn't turned her head to look, she would have been stabbed by Lei Bao. The thought of it made her break out in a cold sweat.
Captain He frowned and said, "This Lei Bao is also a scheming man. He sneaked into Luoshui City a few months ago. It's a pity that Miss Pomegranate has always been protected by many people around you, so he dare not act rashly.
Knowing that you, Miss Pomegranate, often come to the city, I disguised myself and found a job at the dock, waiting for my opportunity.
He said that his men noticed you as soon as you came to Luoshui City yesterday, Miss Pomegranate, and they knew you didn't bring two people with you this time, so they decided to take action. They had been keeping an eye on Yuqian Hutong, and when they knew you were going to the temple fair today, they immediately brought people to the temple fair, taking advantage of the crowd to provide cover and make the move."
"So that's how it is." Shi Liu nodded slightly, "Then what will happen to this Lei Bao?"
Captain He said hurriedly, "Don't worry, Miss Shi Liu. The Lord has already sent an official letter to Dacheng Prefecture to inform the government that Lei Bao was arrested in Luoshui County. This man is a wanted criminal over there. When they get the news, they will send someone to escort him back for trial. For the crime he committed, he will not escape execution in the autumn."
Shi Liu frowned when he heard this. "We have to escort him all the way back to Dacheng Mansion?" What if he escapes on the way? It would be better to execute him on the spot.
"Don't worry, Miss Pomegranate. Lei Bao has committed many crimes and is a repeat offender. He was finally caught. Everyone knows the dangers and will not let him get away easily."
Therefore, Dacheng Prefecture will definitely send more people to take over the prisoners, and they will also have to send some people to escort them.
Shi Liu was not in a position to interfere too much in the government's affairs. Hearing this, he nodded and naturally trusted the government.
This is different from Lei Hu. Lei Hu invaded their Xiahe Village and wanted to burn, kill and loot. They rose up to resist, and killing Lei Hu was also a meritorious service.
But Lei Bao tried to assassinate her in public, but was killed accidentally on the spot. Fortunately, he was taken back by the government and confirmed to be a wanted criminal. He would be tried by the government. At this time, if she asked someone to kill him again, it would be against the law.
Besides, if he is in the hands of the government, who can she send to kill him?
So I hope the government officials can be more helpful and successfully bring Lei Bao back to Dacheng Prefecture to await trial.
……
Early in the morning of the 29th, Shi Liu and Fan Jin rushed back home.
The workshop distributed New Year gifts, settled wages and officially started the New Year leave yesterday afternoon. With Li Rongyu there, all of this was arranged by Li Rongyu and Wei Feng.
As for today, it is the village reunion dinner of Xiahe Village, which is also organized by the head of the village and the chief of the Li clan.
Before entering the village, the temporary kitchen outside the village temple was already set up. A group of wives were busy cutting meat and washing vegetables, and the men were busy setting up tables and benches. The elderly and children gathered under the old locust tree to chat, play and jump. It was really lively. Fan Jin got off the carriage and watched Shi Liu enter the village. Seeing this scene, he was also jealous and said: "Your village is really lively. More than a hundred families are having a reunion dinner together. This is a big scene."
Pomegranate grinned, "Are you jealous? After all, you are not from our village."
Fan Jin looked at Shi Liu with a burning gaze, "If you are willing, I can come and marry you."
Being stared at like this, Shi Liu couldn't help but blush, and hurriedly made a joke, "Oh, it's getting late, it's time to have lunch, you should go home quickly, your aunt is still waiting."
It's a rare ten-day holiday, but as soon as I got home he went to the city to play with her. The Chinese New Year is tomorrow, and he will have to leave again in a few days. I'm sure Mrs. Lu is missing her son a lot.
Fan Jin thought to himself that his mother would be very happy to know that he was with Shi Liu, and she was hoping that he could get Shi Liu's approval as soon as possible, and it would be best if they could get married after the New Year.
But he didn't say much, just nodded and said, "I'll watch you go in before I leave."
Shi Liu nodded, said nothing more, and walked up to the stone bridge. It was just a short distance away, and it would be lively once she got inside. She didn't need to get back in the carriage.
After getting off the stone bridge, Old Man Li, who was sitting under the old locust tree, came over and glanced at Fan Jin, who was still looking outside the village. "Why don't you let Fan Jin come in and sit down?"
Shi Liu angrily said to him, "Grandpa, our village is having a reunion dinner, what's the big deal about letting him in?"
"He will be our village's son-in-law sooner or later..." Old Man Li muttered. Seeing that Fan Jin had turned around and got on the carriage, he said no more and asked Shi Liu whether the temple fair was lively and fun yesterday.
A group of children also gathered around Shi Liu, some calling her sister, aunt, and some calling her grandma.
Shi Liu's lips twitched every time she heard this. Well, with her age in two lifetimes added together, if she had a child early, she could indeed become a grandmother.
Fortunately, the kid who called her auntie was not very old, just a few years old. If she had opened a name that was older, she would not have been able to handle it.
Pomegranate bent down and picked up the little girl. "Oh, how come Xiao Xiangtao's mouth is so sweet? How much candy did you eat?"
The three-year-old girl, dressed like a lucky doll, hugged Shi Liu's neck and said, "Auntie, Xiang Tao didn't eat candy. Grandma said that she can't eat candy because it will eat Xiang Tao's teeth."
"Oh, you didn't eat candy, but your little mouth is so sweet. I really like you. Yes, you can't eat candy. Can I treat you to some snacks?"
As she spoke, she asked Sui Lu to take the snacks down from the carriage. She bought them at Xinglongzhai when she was leaving the city today. They were freshly baked and smelled delicious.
He gave two pieces to Xiangtao first, and distributed the rest to the children one by one, two pieces each. There were some left over, so he distributed them to the old men and women.
Everybody was laughing and it was so lively that the women cooking in the shed and the men setting up the tables, chairs and benches all smiled knowingly and worked harder with their hands.
What do people want in life? Isn't it to have enough food and clothing, to have a healthy family, to have happy children, and to be happy?
They are in Xiahe Village, and the days nowadays are really like this!
Compared to the past, now they are living like gods, every day is full of fun and energy, it is a good life that they would not trade for anything!
