Chapter 487
People from the yamen never came to see Guan Wen again.

It is said that autumn is approaching, and it is also the time when the county magistrate will retire every three years.Today, imperial envoys were sent down to closely investigate the achievements of officials in various places.From now on, officials from all over the world have done a good job of superficial work, and the magistrate of Huixian County is no exception.

The bountiful harvest in the lotus village has become a topic for the county magistrate to show off. The arrest of a dozen thieves in his jurisdiction and the cracking of a nasty murder case are his most outstanding recent political achievements.

Guan Wen was temporarily forgotten by the county magistrate.

Li Xin breathed a sigh of relief.

Guan Wen finally went downhill and did not stay at home anymore.

Sun Hongyan invited him to a gathering at Sun Hongyan's home.

Sun Hongyan and Guan Wen walked over there side by side, but Li Xin didn't follow. Bai Hui whispered to Li Xin, "Hongyan said that the person in charge of your family seems not to be in a good mood recently, and he felt a little bit about the thieves. Bad memories, so I want to talk to him, just the two of them."

Li Xin nodded, and Bai Hui sighed, "Is your boss okay recently? I think there's something wrong with his face."

"Fortunately."

Li Xin responded vaguely, and chatted with Bai Hui about the children at home.

Heng'er and Wu'er didn't come here with Bai Hui, but when they talked about the two daughters, Bai Hui still rolled her eyes with a smile: "They are playing by themselves at home. As I get older, Heng'er becomes more and more quiet. She doesn't talk much, but she is active in her work. Wu'er, that naughty girl, is chattering non-stop every day, and her temper is much more lively than her sister's."

Li Xin also laughed: "It doesn't matter if the little girl is quiet or rambunctious."

Just as she was talking, Amei ran up from the bottom of the slope, looking a little panicked and confused: "Sister-in-law, Master Jiang has come to our village again! I just took a walk in the village with Sister Mudan Well, unexpectedly, I saw Master Jiang..."

"Who is Master Jiang?" Bai Hui asked suspiciously.

Li Xin replied: "Our back room—" Li Xin pointed to her, "Master Jiang helped build it."

Li Xin looked at Amei: "Master Jiang is here for us?"

"Ah..." A-mei blinked her eyes: "It seems... not..."

"Then what are you making such a fuss about?" Li Xin laughed and said, "Maybe someone from our village came to ask him to work."

"But……"

A-mei frowned, and said lightly, "How can this be... Our house is just built, it looks very beautiful... If he builds such a house for others..."

Li Xin laughed and said: "The appearance of the house is there, and the drawings are also drawn by Mr. Jiang. Could it be possible that we can not allow Mr. Jiang to help others build a house like ours?"

A-mei stomped her feet, looking very unhappy.

Aunt Wei laughed on the sidelines: "My sister doesn't want others to be like her."

Xing'er smiled and said: "Ah, why don't you write your name on the house? Then people will know that this house is yours. But..." Xing'er paused: "That's okay. It only takes everyone to be literate."

"Second sister-in-law!" A-mei gave Xing'er a shy look, sat next to Li Xin and hugged her arm: "Sister-in-law, how could Master Jiang do this? Our house has only been built in less than a month... "

Just as they were talking, another girl ran up the slope, about the same age as A-Mei, and Li Xin recognized that it was the Peony of the Gu family.

Gu's Shaoyao is already married, and Mudan's wedding date has also been set, so she is waiting to get married.She is usually on good terms with A-Mei, and just now A-Mei also said that she was taking a walk with her in the village, and maybe talking about girls' concerns...

"Sister!" Gu Mudan called out first, then stopped a little awkwardly, and greeted Li Xin awkwardly.

Li Xin asked her to sit down with a smile, and A-mei went up to her and took her hand and asked, "How is it? Where did Master Jiang go?"

Gu Mudan stretched out her hand to cover her face, and approached Amei to say something.

A-mei's eyes widened immediately, and she said in disbelief, "Isn't that the old house of the Sun family? Why do you want to rebuild the house again?"

One sentence immediately attracted the attention of Li Xin and others.

Bai Hui frowned first and asked, "The Sun family? Which Sun family?"

A-mei pursed her lips, and Gu Mudan said embarrassedly: "It's... Sun Xique, the Sun family..."

Sun Xique is Sun Hongyan's cousin, and Bai Hui is Sun Xique's sister-in-law.

Bai Hui frowned immediately, looked at Li Xin and asked to herself, "I never heard that Hongyan's uncle's house is going to be renovated..."

"That's not it!" Gu Mudan couldn't help interjecting: "Master Jiang was invited by Sun Xique, and asked him to build an embroidery building for her or something..."

While talking about Gu Mudan, she blushed, "Sun Xique also said that after the embroidery building is completed, she will learn how to throw hydrangea balls to recruit relatives..."

Xing'er burst into laughter immediately, and realized that Bai Hui was still beside her when the laughter escaped her mouth!Bai Hui is a serious relative of her family.

Li Xin covered his mouth and coughed, and he dispelled the smile that was about to blurt out, and asked Gu Mudan seriously: "That's Sun Xique's own business, you girls, don't ask about it."

This is just what Li Xinbai said, and he wanted to get this matter out of the way, as long as he didn't know, but Gu Mudan said again: "Let's just ignore the previous sentence, but the latter sentence is called no." Shame on me!"

A-mei suddenly became interested: "What did she say later?"

"She said to let Master Jiang come forward at that time, so she can just throw it to Master Jiang..." Gu Mudan blushed even more: "She even gave Master Jiang a wink, I saw it... ..."

Aunt Wei immediately spat: "Which family is this girl from, she's so shameless."

Aunt Wei only knew that Guan Wen and Li Xin were husband and wife, and that Guan Wu and Xinger were husband and wife.Because no one told her specifically, she even thought Xiaokang was the biological son of Guan Wu and Xing'er, and now Xing'er was pregnant with her second child.

Naturally, Aunt Wei would not know that Bai Hui, the guest of the Guan family in front of her, was the cousin of the "shameless" person she said.

Embarrassment immediately appeared on Bai Hui's face, and Li Xin couldn't get off the stage, so he laughed dryly, took Bai Hui's hand and said, "Let's go down and have a look."

Xing'er pulled Aunt Wei to talk, and asked Amei to talk to Aunt Wei obediently, and stop asking about Sun Xique.

A-mei and Gu Mudan muttered a few words, and then Gu Mudan left.

Li Xin said softly to Bai Hui: "Ms. Wei doesn't know about these things...don't take it to heart..."

Bai Hui waved her hand: "I've gotten used to it over the years. Didn't people say this or that about her in the past? It's just that I feel a little bit ashamed as Magpie's sister-in-law when I'm told in person. I'm still an elder."

"That's right." Li Xin said helplessly, "It's really embarrassing for you..."

"I'm not bad, Hongyan is the one who is in a state of distress." Bai Hui smiled wryly and said, "This girl of his... just doesn't stop, as if she doesn't feel well if she doesn't cause trouble."

Bai Hui and Li Xin walked forward, and Bai Hui paused and asked in doubt: "Listen to what my sister said just now, you knew this Master Jiang earlier? How did Magpie know him?"

"Master Jiang helped us build the back room for the first two months, which is the room protruding from the back of the main room you saw when you came." Li Xin said: "Master Jiang has also worked here for two months, and he is quite serious in his work. Careful and very responsible."

"What about the magpie?"

"Sun Xique came here once..." Li Xin frowned lightly and said, "I seem to have said a few words to Master Jiang, but Master Jiang didn't pay her much attention."

"She, it's always been like this." Bai Hui shook her head helplessly; "If others pay attention to her, she finds it boring. She just rushes to curry favor with those who don't pay attention to her."

Li Xin smiled and said, "You know her very well."

"It's okay if you don't understand." Bai Hui shrugged: "I didn't have much contact with her in the past few years. After she was divorced in the past year, she has come and gone more. I can understand her better. gone."

"He's quite a chic person." Li Xin said vaguely.

Bai Hui smiled and said: "That's true. She doesn't care what others think of her at all. Now I'm afraid it's broken." Bai Hui looked at the road on both sides, and the road on both sides seemed to be getting more and more Narrow: "She just thinks that what she can't get is the best, and she doesn't cherish what she gets. Sometimes I will hear her talking about how Guan Er doesn't know good from bad... If Guan Er treats her Like to Xing'er, I'm afraid she won't even mention Guan Er."

Li Xin smiled, but felt that Bai Hui's summary was very appropriate.

After sending Bai Hui away, Li Xin returned home.Guan Wen and Sun Hongyan went to reminisce about the old days, but the family still had to eat, didn't they?A-mei helped Li Xin prepare lunch, ate it in a hurry, and then went to look for Mudan.

"These girls... they like to inquire about anything when they encounter something." Aunt Wei smiled and said: "It was the same when I was young. The next door is getting married. I have to go and see who is engaged. I Go ask...the older ones always scold us. Now that we're old women, we're scolding the little girls too."

Li Xin smiled and said, "How old is Madam? Oh, I've never seen such a young old lady!"

"Aren't I old at my age?" Having said that, Aunt Wei's face still radiated happiness: "The key is to have a good mentality. If the mentality is not good, no matter how young you are, your heart will also be old."

Li Xin nodded in agreement.

Guan Wen came back before dinner in the afternoon, with a smile on his face, and it seemed that he had a good chat with Sun Hongyan.A-mei also came back, but her face was a little angry. When Li Xin asked, A-mei immediately felt aggrieved, and said: "Sister-in-law, Sister Mudan took me to Sun Xique to see if Master Jiang is there. I didn't expect to be so unlucky to meet Sun Xique. She scolded us and made Sister Mudan cry..."

As she spoke, Amei blushed: "She speaks so badly!"
