After everyone dispersed, everyone in the family breathed a sigh of relief.
Wang Haonan praised: "Sister, your brain is so quick to come up with such a good idea."
Wang Meihua said with lingering fear: "I was forced too. If I don't give up their idea, I don't know what trouble they will make in the future."
In fact, she knew in her heart that it wasn't her eldest brother who told Tianyou to marry Yunxiao in the future.
Although Tianyou is not young anymore, in order to be a scholar and become famous, it is okay to get married later.
It's obvious that Yunxiao won't get married in the next few years. Why don't the two children become a couple?
The eldest brother said this, and she has been thinking about it a lot these days, but she hasn't discussed it with her eldest daughter yet.
Therefore, speak your mind when speaking to your mother-in-law.
Of course, she only said that her nephew was engaged to Yunxiao, not Tianyou.
Even if the marriage fails in the future, it will not have a big impact on my daughter and nephew.
Of course she would not speak her mind in public.
Seeing the joy on the faces of everyone present, she suddenly felt elated as if she was reborn from a cocoon.
Wang Haonan said in a comforting tone: "They are obviously afraid of Yunxiao. I think they can calm down for a while."
Gu Yunxiao smiled and interjected: "Uncle, they are not afraid of me, but they are afraid of the county magistrate."
Everyone nodded.
Wang Haonan praised: "Yunxiao performed well. He was promoted by the county magistrate just after he became a detective. Congratulations."
Gu Yunxiao said sarcastically: "Uncle, the county magistrate also sent me a horse for my daily travel."
Wang Haonan was pounding in his heart, feeling something was wrong. He knew the price of horses. A good horse was worth more than one hundred taels of silver.
Of course the horses given by the county magistrate are good, but is this too much?
He asked doubtfully: "Yunxiao, what exactly have you done? To impress the county magistrate?"
Gu Yunxiao secretly admired his uncle's thoughtfulness.
She said calmly: "I didn't do anything. My father left some things. I looked at them and found them useful, so I gave them to the county magistrate."
I see!
Thanks to this kid for being literate.
Not only my uncle and cousin were relieved.
Even Wang Meihua suddenly realized that, God bless her, the head of the family was still protecting the child and the family.
After breakfast the next day, Wang Haonan and his son were ready to leave.
Yunxiao, who had put on new clothes that fit her well, not only packed a lot of sauced pork for them, but also a few pieces of cloth and ready-made cakes and biscuits.
My eldest uncle and eldest cousin are very kind to my family. Relatives must have contact in order to get along with each other for a long time.
Wang Haonan quickly thought of something and said: "Sister, brother knows that you are going to open a store soon, and the family will definitely be too busy. Why don't you send me to help you for a few months?"
The old lady of the Wang family is hard-working and has always been in good health.
Wang Meihua's eyes lit up, and she quickly thought of her family and said, "It's great that my mother can come, but doesn't my eldest brother also want to open a shop at home?"
Wang Haonan said sincerely: "Sister, the children at home are old and can help. Your two children are too young and can't be separated from each other."
"This..." Wang Meihua hesitated immediately.
"Sister, she has been caring about you all these years. When we came here this time, mother wanted to come with us, but I didn't let her. When I go back, she will definitely want to come. In a few days, I will ask the eldest son to send mother over."
Wang Meihua also missed her mother.
I haven't been separated from the family in recent years. After the family was separated, my mother-in-law often came to catch the autumn breeze.
She didn't dare to invite her mother over. Now that the clouds had finally cleared, it was time for her mother to come and enjoy the blessings for a few days.
Thinking of this, he said apologetically: "Thank you for your hard work."
Gu Yunxiao was very happy, it was great that grandma could come to help.
"Sister, don't be strangers to me. We are close relatives. Besides, Yunxiao has helped us so much, so this little thing is nothing."
After seeing off his uncle and cousin, Gu Yunxiao rushed to the Yamen.
As soon as he walked in, he saw Capt. Song saying something to several detectives.
She walked over and asked with concern: "Uncle Song, what happened?"
When Capt. Song saw it was him, he quickly pulled her aside and whispered: "Yunxiao, let me tell you some good news. The people monitoring Cui Dianshi's house saw two men in black sneaking out of the back door of his house. His clothes are very similar to the man in black who ambushed your father that day."
Gu Yunxiao asked eagerly: "Are they the two fish that slipped through the net?"
Song Captou shook his head and said, "No, those two men in black came to Yizhuang. I think they went to see if the bodies of the three men in black were processed?"
"Where did those two people go afterwards?"
Gu Yunxiao sighed in his heart. The clothes he was wearing seemed to match the appearance of going to Yizhuang, but they were not evidence.
"They rode to Xinglong Town. The policemen didn't dare to follow them too closely, and they lost track of them."
"What happened in Taiping Town recently?"
Song Captou thought for a moment and said, "I didn't hear anything happened. I just heard that Zhao Wanwan, the richest man in town, is celebrating his fiftieth birthday tomorrow."
"Tomorrow? Those two people haven't come back?"
Song Captou nodded and said: "No!"
Gu Yunxiao thought of something quickly and said solemnly: "Uncle Song, do you remember the case my father handled before he died? Wang Yuanwai from Wangjiazhuang."
Song Captou nodded and said, "Of course I remember, I want to visit Taiping Town."
"I am coming too!"
"Without further delay, let's ride!"
After he finished speaking, he quickly thought of something and asked: "Yunxiao doesn't know how to ride a horse, does he?"
Gu Yunxiao remembered the scene of riding a horse with Brother Murong yesterday, and her pretty face suddenly turned red.
He calmed down and said, "Yesterday, the county magistrate and I went on horseback to run errands. I will do as Uncle Song said. I will choose a horse."
Not only did she want to find out what the man in black was doing, but she also considered that her uncle's house was not far from Taiping Town. After the business was done, she would buy a carriage and go to her uncle's house to pick up her grandmother, so as to save her cousin from having to make a trip.
Song Captou looked at Yun Xiao with doubtful eyes, not understanding why she was blushing, and nodded and said, "Okay, I'll call Capt. Luo to come with us."
"good!"
Gu Yunxiao hurriedly walked to the horse pen at the back.
When I came to the horse pen, I saw more than ten horses inside.
Gu Yunxiao was unsure. For professional matters, it was better to hire professionals. She asked tentatively: "Uncle, I don't understand horses. Which horse is more docile?"
The old horse breeder in charge of the horse pen saw the famous person next to the county magistrate coming, and said in panic: "Young man is not worthy of this title. The county magistrate asked me to help you choose a very honest mare yesterday. Do you want to ignore the arrest and take a look?"
Gu Yunxiao was shocked. Brother Murong was so kind to him. Not only did he personally intervene, but he also asked the old horse breeder to help.
She looked at the other person and pointed to a bay horse with a small frame.
She walked over and touched the horse's head. The bay-red horse snorted and put its head on her hand happily.
She was overjoyed and said, "That's it!"
She brought out the bay red horse, and the old horse breeder brought over a new saddle and said, "Gu Baotou, this is prepared for you by the county magistrate. By the way, the county magistrate also ordered that the horses can be sent here when they are used up, and they can be raised here together." .”
Is there such a good thing?
Brother Murong was so considerate. Not only did he help raise the horse, he also prepared a saddle.
Gu Yunxiao stepped on the saddle carefully and climbed onto the horse's back.
Don't tell me, the bay horse is really well-behaved.
She strolled around the yard for a while.
Seeing Mr. Song come back with his men, he raised his hand and shouted: "Uncle Song, let's go."
Song Captou saw that she was riding steadily on the horse, and he walked closer with concern and said: "Yunxiao, don't hold your legs too close together, and relax. Yes, that's it. You go for a walk first, and I'll borrow two horses before leaving." "
Gu Yunxiao immediately understood that someone like Song Baotou had to borrow a horse when going to work.
It’s not like he owns a horse.
She suddenly had a poor-to-rich mentality.
Several people quickly left the county government office
There were more people in the county town, and a few horses were wandering forward in the middle of the road.
After leaving the city, Capt. Song and Capt. Luo quickly rode their horses and ran forward with whips raised.
Gu Yunxiao was dumbfounded. She didn't dare to run so fast.
He tentatively touched the horse's belly with his foot, and the bay-red horse quickly started running.
She suddenly felt like she was flying in the clouds, and she hurriedly lowered her body and lay on the horse's back. Her heart started beating wildly, and she hurriedly tightened the reins of the horse.
She waited until the bay-red horse stopped aggrievedly, and then her nervous heart gradually calmed down.
Song and Captou soon realized that Gu Yunxiao had not followed, so they rode back around.
Seeing her walking slowly forward on the road, Mr. Song frowned and said, "Yunxiao, why don't you hurry up?"
"Uncle Song, I'm scared and don't dare to ride fast."
Song Captou murmured in his heart: What's going on with this kid? If you’re not scared when you see a stinky corpse, what’s so scary about riding a horse?
I quickly thought that this child must have just learned to ride a horse and ran such a long distance before getting used to it, and I suddenly felt soft.
"Yunxiao, it's already dark when you reach Taiping Town at this speed. Please relax the reins a little. Yes, that's it."
Under the guidance of Song Baotou, Gu Yunxiao tried to speed up and finally arrived at Xinglong Town just before noon.
Several people slowed down their riding speed. Song Captou pointed to a luxurious house on the roadside in front and said, "Yunxiao, that's Zhao Wanwan's house. He won't celebrate his birthday until tomorrow, so let's find a hotel to stay in first."
Seeing the luxurious courtyard with green bricks, Gu Yunxiao was stunned. The Zhao family was really rich.
"Uncle Song, does the Zhao family have a large population?"
"Not many, only Mr. and Mrs. Zhao Wanwan. They have two sons at home, and they are both married. I heard that the eldest son has a pair of children. The younger son has only been married for two years, and his wife is just pregnant."
As they were walking and talking, they suddenly saw the door of Zhao Wanwan's house open, and someone rushed out anxiously.
At the same time, cries came from the yard.
What's going on here?
The three of them jumped off their horses in a hurry.
Gu Yunxiao stumbled and almost fell over. After wandering on the horse for several hours, he just found his feet on the ground, as if he was stepping on a large slope.
Fortunately, she had been drinking a few sips of water mixed with spiritual marrow these past few nights.
The strength in the body has basically recovered by more than half.
She stabilized her body with a thousand-gold pendant. She was finally safe, and her pretty face suddenly turned pale.
Song Capt. glanced at her with concern and said, "Yunxiao, are you okay?"
Gu Yunxiao shook his head and said, "It's okay!"
A few people led their horses closer and found that a lot of people had gathered at the door of Zhao Wanwan's house in just a moment.
Gu Yunxiao and Capt. Song threw the horse's reins to Capt. Luo in unison, and the two quickly squeezed in.
Soon I heard everyone talking: "Poor, the whole Zhao family has food poisoning. Tomorrow is Zhao Wanwan's 50th birthday."
"Who ran out crying just now?"
"It's the butler!"
"How come the housekeeper wasn't poisoned?"
"Are you stupid? Can the master eat the same food as the servants?"
Gu Yunxiao and Song Captou looked at each other: There is something going on here!
They quickly squeezed inside.
Captain Song squeezed and shouted: "Give way, we are Yamen agents..."
Everyone got out of the way when they saw the clothes they were wearing and the knives they were wearing.
There were a few bewildered boys standing at the gate.
The two of them rushed directly into Zhao Wanwan's yard without saying hello.
Seeing the neat green brick and large tiled houses in the yard, the two stopped.
Gu Yunxiao grabbed a lost boy by the collar and asked, "Where is the master?"
The boy was stunned for a moment and quickly understood the meaning.
He pointed with trembling hands and said, "They are all in the living room of the main room!"
Gu Yunxiao abandoned the boy and ran to the main living room.
Song Captou followed closely.
Soon, they ran to the door of the main living room.
Seeing the hell-like chaos inside, the Zhao family members of different ages and well-dressed people falling down with foaming at the mouth were stunned.
