Chapter 28 Something Happened

A cargo boat was dragged ashore by the fishermen of Longtan Village, and the wet cargo was also piled up on the beach in a mess, as if silently telling how thrilling it had just been.

A man dressed as a businessman stood in the courtyard of the stone house, his arms were wrapped in thick cloth strips, facing the whispers of the crowd, he remained silent,

"Get out of the way, get out of the way, the idlers are waiting, dodge quickly." Lu Zhixian, who looked majestic, came in from the outside surrounded by a few officers and soldiers, walking in a hurry.

Seeing that it was Lu Zhi County, the spectators scattered like birds and beasts.

Lu Zhixian is about 40 years old, with small eyes, a little fatter, a shrewd face, and a slightly raised beard. At first glance, you can tell that he is a good-looking master.

"What is your name, where did you come from, and where are you going? What happened last night?" Zhixian Lu asked a series of questions after sitting down.

Master Wu, who was following him, immediately spread out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone that he had prepared, and quickly took notes.

"Xiaomin is Wang Qingnian from Dingyuan Town. We set off from Dingyuan Town to go to the capital. We passed by expensive land. We didn't want to encounter pirates. Some of the goods were robbed. Thanks to the help of you maritime patrols, the people on our ship The four people escaped this catastrophe, I will not thank you for your great kindness, and I will definitely repay you in the future." Wang Qingnian said with lingering fear.

"You don't have to be polite, this is our duty." Lu Zhixian stroked his sparse beard, nodded, then turned to ask Xiao Chengyu who was standing aside: "How are those three people?"

"My lord, some goods on their boat fell into the sea, and the three of them rowed down the sea to see if they could catch some. They all suffered some minor injuries, and they are all right!" Xiao Chengyu looked and stood aside. Zhao Ziliang replied blankly.

Zhao Ziliang didn't look at him, but looked up at the sky.

"Well, that's good! It's just that the sea area of ​​our Longtan Town has been peaceful all these years, how could there be pirates?" Lu Zhixian looked at Wang Qingnian suspiciously, "Are you sure you haven't offended any enemies?"

"My lord, Xiaomin has been working hard at sea all these years. He naturally knows that harmony makes money. He has always treated people generously and never had any grudges with others. In the past few years, he has been passing by your place and everything is safe. Who knows , Such a thing happened last night." Wang Qingnian said with lingering fear, "Those people appeared near Longji Island, they had several boats, and they sounded like foreigners from their accent. Could it be that there haven't been any foreigners from your place recently? "

"Don't worry, the county magistrate will definitely investigate this matter to the end and give you justice." Lu magistrate frowned, pondered for a moment, then turned his head and whispered to Xiao Chengyu: "Cheng Yu! There are still many things in my yamen. I will leave some small things to you, so that from now on, you will be solely responsible for this matter without asking for instructions."

"My lord, if there are really pirates at sea, it will affect the safety of our entire Longtan Village and even the people of this Longtan Town. How can it be a trivial matter?" Xiao Chengyu asked in a deep voice.

"So you have to cheer up. In this way, I will send you a few more people to help you search. You are from this village. No one is more familiar with everything here than you. I will leave it to you. Don't worry." Lu Zhixian patted him on the shoulder, "These days, you don't have to go to the yamen to order something, just stay here with peace of mind, if you have anything to do, you can come to the yamen to find me at any time."

He was born as a scholar, and he has always had a headache about these beatings and killings. Moreover, he is also seasick, and feels like vomiting when he gets on the boat. Thinking about these things, he feels very helpless.

Now, he finally grasped a life-saving straw, how could he let it go easily.

"Yes, my lord, the subordinates will do their best." Xiao Chengyu had no choice but to respond, and he naturally knew that he was the straw.

"Hahaha, brother-in-law, it's really you. Push this mess to Xiao Chengyu as a matter of course. Not only will you relax yourself, but you will also vent your anger on me, hahaha." Just as Lu Zhixian walked out of the compound, Zhao Ziliang followed suit quickly. flashed over.

"This is a business matter, what do you mean I got angry at you?" Zhixian Lu looked at his brother-in-law dissatisfied. There are some things that you should know in your heart, but if you say it, it will change the taste.

"Come on, Master Lu, the villain is holding a banquet at Meimeiju today, and I hope you will appreciate me." Zhao Ziliang smiled and bowed, "Your Excellency will not forget the matter I mentioned to you last time, right?"

"What's the matter?" Lu Zhixian was at a loss: "You mentioned too many things, how do I know which one it is?"

"Come with me to Xiao's house to propose marriage!" Zhao Ziliang smiled lightly, "I still don't believe it, there are still women in this world that I can't marry!"

"Don't you dare! Let me tell you, when I am employing people, you'd better not trouble me. After the pirate incident is over, you can do whatever you want." Lu Zhixian glared at him. There are too many women in the world. Why do you have to provoke Xiao Chengyu's sister? Isn't this looking for trouble?

Besides, this time, he was punishing Xiao Chengyu.As the saying goes, you don't look at the face of the monk, you look at the face of the Buddha. When beating a dog, you still need to look at the owner. Is my Lu Haomin's brother-in-law the one you can hit casually?

A smart person like Xiao Chengyu would not be ignorant of the reason.

"Brother Xiao, look, this..." Huzi, who had been watching coldly from the sidelines, slicked his feet and said displeasedly when he saw Lu Zhixian coming and going through the scene.

"It's nothing, he just targeted me alone." Xiao Chengyu said indifferently, he has been with Lu Zhixian for almost a year, how can he not know his usual style of doing things?

"Huzi, move the goods on the beach to the warehouse, and then find someone to repair the boat." He looked at Wang Qingnian and sighed softly, "Send this person to my house for a night first!"

"Brother, you just got married, so it might be inconvenient to send it to your house?" Hu Zi looked at him with some hesitation, "Why don't you leave him here, and when we are on duty at night, we take turns delivering meals to him and taking care of him. "

"It's cold, and he's injured. How can he be thrown here alone? Even if he was picked up by the sea, there's no reason to throw him here. Send him to my house first! Those who are waiting for him Let's talk when the companion comes back!" Xiao Chengyu raised his eyebrows and strode out of the stone house.

The people on the beach gradually dispersed, and there were two figures walking towards him in front of him.

"Third brother, are you alright!" Xiao Yun asked with concern after seeing Xiao Chengyu, he walked a few steps closer.

The two came to the beach early in the morning as promised, and wanted to go fishing with Xu Yuanqi, but when they heard that something happened at sea, they hurried over to have a look, but when they reached the door of the stone house, they were stopped, saying that Lu Zhixian was inside to investigate. case, idlers are not allowed to enter, so they have to withdraw and wait for him.

"It's okay." Xiao Chengyu looked at them and said again, "There is a person here who was injured, and I'm going to send someone to his home."

Lin Xueman glanced at him, but said nothing.

"Send home? Third brother, how can a stranger live in the house?" Xiao Yun looked at Lin Xueman, and said, "It's inconvenient to live with a strange man at home!"

"That's it, don't need to say much, you go back and tidy up the room where no one lives at home, and just settle him there. If he is not seriously injured, just rest and rest!" He glanced at Lin Xueman as if nothing had happened, turned and entered the room. stone house.

"Understood." Lin Xueman replied softly.

Turning around, he saw Xu Yuanqi walking slowly from the seawall.

"Master Xu, what a coincidence, I have something to do at home today, I'm afraid I won't be able to go to sea with you." Xiao Yun quickly walked a few steps, hurriedly went up to him, looked at him, and blushed slightly.

"Ah! It's okay, let's make an appointment another day." He smiled faintly, looked up at Lin Xueman, and waved lightly at her.

Lin Xueman understood and smiled at him, but didn't go forward.
