Chapter 515: Let's talk
Mu Xiaojiu looked at Xiao Zhukuai, who was obviously still a little anxious, and shook his head gently, "Boy, let you stay for the good of the two of you." β
Xiao Yu looked at Mu Xiaojiu quickly, he didn't know why Mu Xiaojiu said this, but because Mu Xiaojiu was not only a big official from the capital, but also had the identity of him and Zhou Li's benefactor, so he didn't open his mouth to refute it at the first time, but was ready to listen to why Mu Xiaojiu said this first.
"You and Zhou Li are childhood sweethearts, and they have grown up together since childhood, in a sense, in fact, you can be called a family member to Zhou Li. However, now that Zhou Li's family is ruined and his father is dead, in this case, seeing you will inevitably remind her of those bad things and stimulate her, which is why she showed some resistance to you today. β
Now that Zhou Li has the intention to die, if you continue to stimulate her, there may be two consequences, one is to decide to continue to live well and give up the idea of seeking death. But the other is to choose one hundred directly. β
Xiao Yu looked at Mu Xiaojiu in a daze, not knowing what to say.
"Zhou Li is a very smart, assertive, soft girl on the outside and strong on the inside, for this kind of person, in fact, sometimes outsiders can better delay time." Mu Xiaojiu gave Xiao Yu Express a "reassuring" look, and then said, "Trust me." β
"Okay, Xiao Zhang." Lin Qin suddenly spoke: "Sit down, since Master Mu said so, he will definitely stop Miss Zhou Li from seeking death." What is the identity of Lord Mu? That's when he was a special envoy of the DPRK and a second-class officer, and it was difficult to chase after him. β
Xiao Yu hesitated for a moment, and finally sat down hesitantly. Mu Xiaojiu glanced at Lin Qin with a little meaning, this guy really looks like his father, what he said is clearly to hurry up for this little catcher.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
On the other side, after Hu Xiaoxian came out of the back hall, he quickly found Zhou Li who was walking towards the back yard. But she didn't catch up immediately, but chose to follow Zhou Li first.
Along the way, Zhou Li seemed to have slowly recovered, although he still didn't walk fast, but every step was very stable.
The fox fairy was not in a hurry, and followed behind.
Speaking of which, this yamen in Zhuge Town is really "small sparrows, but all kinds of organs". Although there is no shortage of Yamen in Zhuge Town, the Yamen in Zhuge Town is really not big, and there are only six people in the entire Yamen. Except for Lin Qin, Li Zhutou and the four catchers, there was no one else in the entire Zhuge Town Yamen. Not to mention cleaning, even the cooking is taken care of by two catchers.
Therefore, although Zhou Li did not walk fast, it was only a short time to go from the backhall to the backyard.
After arriving at the door of the room, Zhou Li looked around, then showed an expression of some happiness and some disappointment, pushed open the door and walked into the room.
Just as she picked up the latch and was about to shut it shut, there was a sudden knock on the door of the room.
"Who...... Who is it? Zhou Li was startled by the sudden knock on the door, and couldn't help but take half a step back, and then asked.
"Is it Sister Zhou Li? I'm Mu Xiaojiu's fiancΓ©e, Hu Xiaoxian, can you let me in? I have a question for you. β
Zhou Li was stunned for a moment, and immediately remembered the veiled woman sitting next to Mu Xiaojiu when she went to thank her.
In fact, at that time, she originally wanted to die directly on the pillar after thanking Mu Xiaojiu for his kindness. But she didn't expect Mu Xiaojiu's martial arts to be so good, and even make her unable to kneel. This situation suddenly made Zhou Li give up the idea of committing suicide on the spot, because she knew that as long as Mu Xiaojiu was present, she would definitely not be able to commit suicide successfully.
However, giving up the idea of committing suicide on the spot does not mean that Zhou Li does not plan to commit suicide. What she thought was that since she couldn't commit suicide on the spot, she would just go back to her room and commit suicide.
It's a pity that just when Zhou Li was about to open his mouth to reject Hu Xiaoxian's idea of "come in and sit", Hu Xiaoxian had already reached out and pushed the door open.
"Uh...... Fox, fox ......"
"It looks like I'm older than you, Miss Zhou Li, how old are you this year?" As soon as the fox fairy came in as if she was familiar with herself, she turned around and closed the door, making it clear that she wanted to stay in this room for a while.
Zhou Li is a person who is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, and in the face of such an "outsider" as Hu Xiaoxian, she has the heart to catch up, but she doesn't know what to say, so in desperation, she has no choice but to answer: "I, I'm fifteen years old this year." β
"Well, I'll just say it." Hu Xiaoxian looked really like this, "Then, I'll call you Sister Zhou Li." β
Zhou Li was stunned, then nodded.
"Oh, let me tell you, I really don't want to sit with them over there right now. A few big men, sitting together is really boring, talking about something serious. As he spoke, Hu Xiaoxian sat down directly, "No, I just ran out, thinking about coming over to talk to you." β
Zhou Li secretly glanced at Hu Xiaoxian with some suspicion, obviously not believing Hu Xiaoxian's statement. But looking at Hu Xiaoxian's obviously unhappy look, Zhou Li suddenly felt that it was not impossible.
"In that case, then Sister Fox will sit here for a while." Zhou Li nodded, very gently.
Hu Xiaoxian smiled secretly, and then began to sit in the room, chatting with Zhou Li without a match.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
In the back hall of the yamen.
"Speaking of which, Lin Lizheng, why did you come to this Zhuge town as an official? Or is it just a good thing? That's a bit of a condescension. β
Lin Qin smiled bitterly, "Where is Lord Mu, I, Lin someone, have a few catties and taels myself, and I know it myself." If I was given a big position, I wouldn't be able to do it well. After the previous imperial examination, Jiaci wanted me to stay in the capital and go to the Sixth Ministry as an official. But after I talked with Jia Yan once, I also felt that with my ability at that time, I was not enough to enter the sixth department as an official. Therefore, I volunteered to come to the small town of Zhuge in Zhongzhou, and decided to take this place as the first stop on my official journey. Now that I've been here for two years, I've been able to exercise some of my abilities, and if there is no accident, I guess I'm about to be transferred. β
Mu Xiaojiu nodded, "Oh, I see." Lin Lizheng can have the consciousness to leave the capital and come to this town to be a Lizheng, which is really rare. β
