Master in charge of the case: Our county magistrate has a black belly

Chapter 54

Han Quce paced back and forth in the study, Ahu and Axiu were also fidgeting, wondering what was going on with them.

At the third watch of the night shift, the candle crackled and burned the fuse, the atmosphere in the room was very low, creaking, and the sound of the door opening broke the dullness in the room.

"My lord, Xia Butou are you back?" Axiu's words awakened Han Quce who was in deep thought.

"Lu Yu, Xia Yan, you are finally back." Han Quce exhaled.

"This old guy has nothing to worry about. The main reason is that it took a long time for them to reconcile the accounts, and they have to integrate the accounts." Lu Yu sat down and poured water.

"What about the ledger?"

"Master, here." Xia Yan took out a few account books from his arms.

"Well, let's start copying. But I need to make some changes." Han Quce picked up the ledger.

"Master, do you want us to help?" Axiu said.

"No, these handwritings need to be the same, you won't imitate them, let me do it, it's getting late, you guys go to rest, you are putting the ledger back before tomorrow morning." Han Quce said.

"Then I'll stay here with you." Lu Yu looked at Han Quce and said.

"Well, thank you for your hard work."

"Thank you for your hard work."

"Then I'll get some bowls of noodles to warm you up." Axiu said, she got up and went to the kitchen.

"Then I'll get some charcoal and come over to warm up the fire." Ah Hu said.

"Then I... go to boil the water." Xia Yan was not idle either.

"I'll grind the ink." Lu Yu picked up the ink

The cold wind blowing by outside, a few people drank hot noodle soup inside the house, roasted by the fire, and their whole bodies were warm.

After Han Quce finished his noodle soup, he continued to copy the account book, which was pasted page by page, so after Han Quce finished writing a few pages, they glued the account book page by page.

Time passed bit by bit, Han Quce was concentrating on copying, Axiu was sticking to each other page by page, Ahu was lying on the table and talking, Xia Yan was falling asleep with his hands on the table, Lu Yu was lying on Han Quce's lap They were also sound asleep, only Han Quce and Axiu were left.

The sky gradually turned pale, and Han Quce breathed a sigh of relief after finishing the last stroke, "It's finished."

"Master, have you finished writing?" Axiu also took a long breath and sat down on the chair.

"W-Did you finish writing?" Lu Yu was in a light sleep and was awakened suddenly.Lu Yu rubbed his eyes.

Lu Yu looked at the ledger that had been pasted up, and excitedly slapped the table, waking Xia Yan up again.

"My lord?" Xia Yan looked at Lu Yu holding the ledger and giggled as soon as he opened his eyes, "Are you ready?"

"Okay." Lu Yu held the completed account book, "It really looks like it."

"Alright then, my lord, I'll send the ledger back, and I'll do it by myself." Xia Yan took the ledger.

Lu Yu nodded, "Then you pay attention to safety."

"Yes, my lord." Xia Yan left after finishing speaking.

"Oh, I'm exhausted." Axiu stretched her waist.

'Axiu, go and rest. " Han Quce said.

"Well, today is your day off." Lu Yu said. "Today we have a collective holiday, let's talk to Xia Yan when he comes back."

"Hey, it's pity that my rest day is actually used for sleeping." Axiu yawned and went back to her room.
