"Mr. Lin, as long as you can abide by the rules of the patrol room and do your duty as a police officer, there is no doubt that you are humble." Wang Lun thought for a while and said with clasped fists.
After Wang Lun sent someone to send Xiao Hong away, he was still worried. Lin Zihe discovered what happened between him and Lin Hongyu, and he didn't know how County Magistrate Lin would react.
If in normal times, Wang Lun would not agree if a small catcher was added to the patrol room without any reason. Without even thinking about it, he knew that Lin Zihe must have taken someone else's money. But at this juncture, he didn't want to get into trouble with Lin Zihe. As long as he disciplines the little catcher who comes in through the back door, nothing will happen to him.
"That's good, the matter is settled." Lin Zihe secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said, he was really afraid that Wang Lun would be stupid and prevent him from stepping down.
"Wang Captou, do you have a wife?" Lin Zihe asked with a roll of his eyes.
"My lord, I am humbled by my position and have not married yet." Wang Lun's heart skipped a beat and he replied truthfully.
"Oh, Capt. Wang, you are so young and promising, how come you haven't married yet? Are you too picky? Young people, don't be arrogant and think about unrealistic things. I will help you pay attention in the future. Let me ask you which of the ladies in the county is unmarried, and I will be a matchmaker for you. It would be better for the man to get married as soon as possible." Lin Zihe said in a strange tone, and he was gently warning Wang Lun not to have any wishful thinking.
"Thank you, sir." Wang Lun heard Lin Zihe's hidden meaning and replied helplessly.
"If your Excellency has nothing else to do, I will resign from my humble position." Wang Lun held the long knife, stood up and said in a low mood.
"Go!" Lin Zihe leaned on the master's chair, closed his eyes and said.
Wang Lun left the study, and Lin Zihe opened his eyes and looked at his back. He cursed secretly in his heart: "I don't care about my status. I really want to eat swan meat or something."
"Wang Captou, come this way." Not long after Wang Lun walked out of the study, he was stopped by Mrs. Lin.
"Madam, what's the matter?" Wang Lun walked to the pavilion and asked Mrs. Lin who was sitting and cracking melon seeds.
"It's nothing. I heard that Detective Wang has been very close to my Hongyu recently?" Mrs. Lin stared at Wang Lun and sneered. After listening to Mrs. Lin's question, Wang Lun was stunned on the spot, not knowing how to answer, and his heart was in chaos.
"Hongyu and I are in love, please make it happen, madam." Wang Lun replied stutteringly. Wang Lun decided to put aside his reason and dignity and make the matter clear. He knew that if he didn't fight for it, there would be no chance for him and Hong Yu.
"Hmph! We are in love. I think you bullied us, Hongyu, who is young and ignorant, and deceived her feelings with your sweet words." Mrs. Lin pointed at Wang Lun with her fat finger and said angrily.
"Madam, I did not deceive Hong Yu. My relationship with Hong Yu is real. I swear to God that I will treat her well." Wang Lun argued strongly.
"Be good to Hongyu, just because you have a shabby yard in the city and can't afford to be taken care of by someone?" Mrs. Lin said in a sinister tone.
Mrs. Lin continued: "Wang Catcher, do you think that the official position of Tianping County Chief Catcher is very big! If I tell you that you want to marry our Hongyu even if you are an eighth-rank official, just have your spring and autumn dream. , The tone is really quite bad, shameless."
Wang Lun lowered his head, grabbed the fallen leaf knife in his hand, and tried his best to suppress his anger. He had never been so insulted in person, and his self-esteem was greatly trampled on. But he had nothing to do. The other party was Lin Hongyu's mother, so he could only swallow his anger.
"Wang Lun, let me tell you..." Mrs. Lin wanted to say something ugly, but she gave up when she saw the long knife in Wang Lun's hand. She was afraid that Wang Lun couldn't bear her insults and would get angry and hurt others, which would be bad, so she felt a little wary.
"Wang Lun, don't pester my Hongyu in the future, and I won't let her meet you again. Just take care of yourself and give up!" After Mrs. Lin finished speaking, she left quickly.
Mrs. Lin also knew that what she said was a bit harsh, but otherwise, how could Wang Lun retreat in spite of the difficulties. This was what she and Lin Zihe had discussed in advance. One was a good guy and the other was a bad guy, in order to make Wang Lun completely give up and stop him from thinking.
Lin Zihe and his wife knew that it was useless to persuade Lin Hongyu. She would not listen at all. They had no choice but to embarrass Wang Lun.
Lin Hongyu has been locked up in her boudoir these days and cannot get out of the county office, so she is very worried. She didn't know how her parents would embarrass Brother Wang. She knew her parents' tempers, so she could only hope that Brother Wang could forgive them. Lin Hongyu wanted to sneak out of the county office to find Wang Lun whenever she had the chance, but she was stared at.
Mrs. Lin watched her all day long, and her servants also watched her. After Xiaohong's accident, the maids did not dare to get too close to her, and she could not leave the county government office. She really likes Wang Lun and feels particularly comfortable and happy when she is with him. But her parents strongly opposed it, and she didn't know what to do.
Zhang Cuilan walked back and forth uneasily, feeling hesitant and conflicted in her heart. She has been having trouble sleeping and eating every day for this month. Recently, she discovered that her belly has begun to grow slowly, which makes her wonder what to do. After several days of repeated consideration, she decided to tell Liu Yu the truth and ask Liu Yu for help. For the sake of my pity, I can help her.
Zhang Cuilan learned that she was pregnant. She was very panicked at first, but later she accepted the reality.
She is a widow, already in her forties, and will never marry again. No matter if she is pregnant with a child now, Zhang Cuilan wants to give birth to the child and raise it so that she can take care of herself in old age so that she will not be too lonely in old age. After thinking clearly, Zhang Cuilan considered how to give birth to the child.
Zhang Cuilan's first idea was to leave Tianping County, give birth to a child in a place where no one knew her, and raise her child. With the money she had saved through years of frugality, she believed she could raise her children.
Shen Yuan gave her six hundred taels of silver before and after, but she would not touch it unless absolutely necessary, leaving all the money to her children. But after thinking about it carefully, I felt that there was something wrong with this method.
She had given birth to a baby before and knew that she was pregnant in ten months and had difficulty moving and needed someone to take care of her. If she went to a strange place and was unfamiliar with the place, how could she give birth to the baby smoothly and safely? Therefore, after careful consideration, Zhang Cuilan decided to give birth to the child in Tianping County and wait until the child was born before leaving Tianping County.
"Sir, can a civilian woman come in?" Zhang Cuilan knocked on Liu Yu's door and asked anxiously.
"Come in! What's the matter with Mrs. Zhang?" Liu Yu happened to be not practicing and was closing her eyes to rest. She heard the voice and replied.
"Sir, please help me." Zhang Cuilan entered the room, walked to Liu Yu and suddenly knelt down, crying.
"Aunt Zhang, what's wrong with you? If you have anything to do, get up and tell her." Liu Yu quickly helped her up and said doubtfully.
"Sir, if you don't agree, the women will not get up." Zhang Cuilan knelt on the ground and refused to get up, saying with tears streaming down her face.
"Whatever it is, I just promise you." Liu Yu agreed softly. In Liu Yu's opinion, Aunt Zhang could do something big.
