Chapter 155
Seeing his serious expression, Yan Xiaowan's heart skipped a beat, and she grabbed his wrist and asked anxiously, "Uncle, what is the magistrate asking for me? Did those villains do something bad?"

She spent several days working hard, but failed to find the spy's hiding place.Not knowing the enemy's whereabouts, Yan Xiaowan always had a sword hanging in her heart, worried that those guys would mess up and do evil deeds that would harm ordinary people.

"No." Seeing how nervous she was, Lin Laishun smiled at her in an attempt to calm her down.

Judging by her uncle's expression, it shouldn't be a bad thing for Guan Qingyun to seek her out, so what else could it be for?
Yan Xiaowan's eyes were full of doubts: "What is that?"

Seeing the little girl getting angry in a hurry, Lin Laishun couldn't laugh or cry, why is such a young girl so worried?

"I don't know either, we'll find out when we get there."

When the nephew and uncle entered the yamen, Guan Qingyun asked his servants to serve them tea, exchanged some pleasantries and asked Yan Xiaowan: "Xiaowan, I came to ask you to do me a favor."

From the moment she entered the door, Yan Xiaowan stared at Guan Qingyun, trying to find answers from his face, wondering why he was looking for her.

Seeing that he was no longer talking nonsense, Yan Xiaowan immediately straightened her waist and said respectfully: "Uncle County Magistrate is too polite, if there is anything I need to do, you can just order it."

Guan Qingyun straightened his face, and directly made his request: "Xiaowan, you found out that traitor Huang Deren, and I sent someone to interrogate him that day, but I couldn't get any valuable clues from him. So I hope you can tell me what happened that day in detail again."

Before Yan Xiaowan opened her mouth to answer, she looked at Lin Laishun with a guilty conscience. If she told the whole process of the matter, her uncle would definitely be angry, because she deliberately concealed some content.

"Huang Deren is a well-known gambler in the city. He is so famous that even I, a little girl who has never been to the city a few times, can hear his name. A few days ago, I heard someone gossip that Huang Deren has a little back recently. He must lose, but he can still go to the casino with money to gamble every day. I find it strange. I asked those uncles, and learned from them that Huang Deren bragged to them after he was drunk that someone gave him money without a bottom line. To gamble. This is even more strange, I went to the casino..."

Lin Laishun, who was sitting next to Yan Xiaowan, clenched his palms on his thighs into fists, and stared at the little girl who was dodging her gaze.

This daring little guy actually dared to run to the casino alone behind his back!What a shame!
Yan Xiaowan felt guilty when he saw his angry eyes, fine sweat broke out on her forehead, she lowered her head in guilt, and continued to say: "After I entered the casino, I found that Huang Deren lost every game, but he didn't do it at all. I care. He is extremely generous, which makes those gamblers who are familiar with him envious. Under the flattery of those people, Huang Deren slipped his mouth, saying that he is working for some people from other places recently. "

The more Lin Laishun listened, the angrier he became, his clenched hands made an unpleasant creaking sound, and he glared at Yan Xiaowan angrily.If he hadn't been concerned about Guan Qingyun's presence, he probably would have picked up this reckless little girl and beat her up severely.

Guan Qingyun saw Lin Laishun's anger and Yan Xiaowan's guilty conscience, so he could only tell Lin Laishun to go out, so as not to affect Yan Xiaowan's talking to him.

Lin Laishun reluctantly got up and left. Before turning around, he glared fiercely at the niece who was like a quail shrinking her head, and strode out angrily.

Yan Xiaowan secretly raised her eyelids to take a look, but was caught by Lin Laishun who suddenly turned around.Facing the angry face of her uncle, she became more and more guilty, and quickly lowered her head, not daring to peek any more.

Guan Qingyun looked at the eyes of his nephew and uncle, and secretly laughed: this one is really interesting.

"Ahem, Xiaowan, keep talking." Before Guan Qingyun could put away the smile, Yan Xiaowan caught him straight.

The corners of Yan Xiaowan's eyes twitched violently a few times, she simply lowered her eyelids, trying to keep out of sight and out of mind.

She continued in an unhurried voice: "Huang Deren lost all his money and even borrowed five taels of silver from someone. He patted his chest and promised that he would ask for it when he returned home. I followed him secretly and found him entering the house." After leaving the house, he went out with a smile after a short stay. After returning to the casino, Huang Deren immediately returned the five taels of silver he owed, and then took money out of his pocket to gamble.

Huang Deren is a gambler with a bad reputation. Apart from his house, he has nothing of value, and he even sold his wife and children.Such a person, it is strange that he suddenly has so much money.I followed the clues and found that all of Huang Deren's money was hush money given to him by the spies of the enemy country. Those guys suddenly stopped moving a few days ago, and Huang Deren was almost killed by them on the way home from the casino.I just happened to see them committing crimes, so I managed to drive them away and save Huang Deren. "

Yan Xiaowan didn't say in detail how she rescued Huang Deren, Guan Qingyun didn't seem to care about it, he asked: "Xiaowan, have you ever been seen by those people?"

Hearing Guan Qingyun's question, Yan Xiaowan was surprised for a moment, then shook her head: "No, I pretended, they couldn't recognize me."

Guan Qingyun looked at her in surprise, and praised: "You still know how to pretend? I am shocked every time your child does something, you do a good job."

Yan Xiaowan smiled embarrassedly, lowered her head and said nothing.

Guan Qingyun praised her a few words and asked a few key questions. He got the answer he wanted and gave Yan Xiaowan a reward.

Yan Xiaowan was about to leave after receiving the reward, but Guan Qingyun called her to comfort her and said, "Xiaowan, if your uncle teaches you a lesson later, listen carefully, and don't make him more angry."

Yan Xiaowan unexpectedly looked at Guan Qingyun's warm smiling face, and a bright smile appeared on his small face: "Thank you for reminding me, Uncle."

Lin Laishun walked outside for a long time, and the anger in his heart dissipated a little.

Yan Xiaowan came out of the room and walked towards Lin Laishun nervously. Every time she took a step closer, her heart beat faster. It was beating so fast that she even had the illusion of jumping out of her chest.

She moved to Lin Laishun step by step, and was the first to admit her mistake: "Uncle, I didn't mean to hide it from you."

Lin Laishun's anger persisted, but he was unwilling to educate his children in front of outsiders, because he didn't want to hurt Yan Xiaowan's self-esteem.

He didn't say a word of lesson, just said two words dryly: "Go home."

The two walked back and forth without saying a word.Yan Xiaowan wanted to explain several times, but seeing the people coming and going, she could only hold back her words.

After leaving the city gate, on the mountain road home, Yan Xiaowan grabbed Lin Laishun's arm and begged, "Uncle, can you hit me? Don't be angry if you beat me up."
