Zhou Ruhai was so immersed in his inner emotions that he completely forgot to pay attention to the two policemen standing in front of him, which made the scene very embarrassing for a time.
The two policemen glanced at each other, and a shadow immediately fell over their hearts. They both muttered secretly in their hearts, thinking that when Master Zhou asked the question just now, he was quite polite and quite normal. Why are we two? After answering the question, he was suddenly stunned. Did the two of us say something wrong? Offended his old man? If that were the case, things would be terrible.
Originally, the two of us had no status at the inspection yamen in the south of the city. When good errands came up, it was not our turn. Only the drudgery of running errands was assigned to us. If the two of us came this time, , did not complete the task well, but offended the famous man in the yamen, Zhou Yiming's father, and then there would be no way to survive in the yamen. Even if Mr. Yiming had a lot of money, after knowing this matter, Don't argue with us, but once Inspector Deng knows the details of the matter, the two of us still have nothing to gain.
After thinking of this, the two policemen stood in the study room, feeling on pins and needles for a moment. At this time, they had no other extravagant wishes. They just asked Mr. Zhou to say something quickly and let them understand where they were. If you make a mistake, as long as you understand this, with their ability to adapt to changes and observe what is happening, it is very likely that they can make up for the mistake they just made in a short period of time.
Because my master had to receive important guests, all the servants in the study had already consciously left. The only person left was the master of the Zhou family.
After Lin Ajiao felt that the atmosphere in the study was not right, she immediately turned around and looked at her father-in-law. She thought that the two police officers had made it very clear just now, so why was her father-in-law stunned and saying: He replied without saying a word, which was too rude. Fortunately, these two police officers had very low positions. If they were replaced by big shots, they would have to offend someone.
Mrs. Zhou also realized that something was wrong. She knew in her heart that if this embarrassing atmosphere continued, it would be difficult to end, so she could only bite the bullet, smile on her face, and said to her master very naturally: "Sir, the two policemen have made it very clear that they want Ming'er to go back to the Yamen with them. There are important matters waiting for our son to deal with in the Yamen."
"Yes," the two policemen were deeply moved when they saw Mrs. Zhou reminding them Mr. Zhou. At the same time, they quickly said, "Mr. Zhou, our trip has only this purpose. You old man, please don’t think too much. If it’s convenient for you, old man, just help us bring Mr. Zhou out.”
Zhou Ruhai just woke up from his negative emotions at this time. He looked at the two police officers with some embarrassment and felt nervous, fearing that his thoughts just now would be seen by others.
After a short silence, he gradually regained his composure, then he pretended to be very serious and said: "Originally, there is something going on in your yamen, and my Ming'er is a member of your yamen. You ask him to go back. I You should give your full support, but I can't do that today, although I know it's unreasonable for me to say this, but there is no way, I only have one son, Ming'er, and I must think about his safety."
For a moment, the two policemen didn't understand what Zhou Ruhai meant by what he said. Did he think that the city's south Yamen was full of danger? This is unreasonable. No matter how bold a thief is, he cannot go to the Yamen to commit evil.
After learning the purpose of the two policemen's visit, Mrs. Zhou and Lin Ajiao felt very unhappy because they felt very sorry for Zhou Ming. They knew that he had experienced a narrow escape yesterday and was really tired. If he didn't get enough rest today, If so, it is likely to cause the disease.
Because of this worry, when Zhou Ruhai did not respond to the answers of the two police officers, Mrs. Zhou and others were very worried, fearing that their master did not know how to care about his son and would compromise too easily, causing the two police officers to As soon as the man opened his mouth, he sent someone to call Monday.
However, the final facts proved that Mrs. Zhou's worries were unnecessary. When Zhou Ruhai faced the two policemen, he changed his usual compromising style and tried his best to protect his son's interests at the critical moment, even at the cost of fighting with the two police officers. Even Mrs. Zhou did not expect the tough attitude he showed when he was sent to the police.
The two policemen looked at Zhou Ruhai, who was serious in speech, and felt very stressed, because they knew very well that if they could not complete this mission, they would not be able to go back to deliver the mission. After all, the temper of Inspector Deng would make them One is the one who knows best.
In desperation, the two of them could only bite the bullet and said to Zhou Ruhai in a low voice: "Mr. Zhou, we can understand your mood. As parents, who doesn't love their children? And we, Zhou Capt. Your only son, you think about him, as you should.
But the two of us can assure you that our yamen is very safe now, and nothing will happen to Mr. Zhou after he comes back with us.
If something bad happens to Mr. Zhou, the two of us will sacrifice our lives for you, do you think this is okay? "
After listening to what these two policemen said, Lin Ajiao who was standing aside almost laughed, thinking that although these two people were very experienced in dealing with people, their minds were really not very smart. Just now, the father-in-law said They didn't fully understand what he said, and under such circumstances, they actually dared to answer the question. Isn't this looking for death?
"Bastard!" Zhou Ruhai was irritated by the words of the two policemen. He stood up with a loud noise, pointed at the two policemen and yelled, "Which of your ears heard me saying that your yamen was in danger? I said for you. For my own son's safety, I am afraid that your yamen will exhaust my son to death.
I think as a member of the inspection yamen in the south of the city, you two know better than anyone what kind of actions were carried out in your yamen yesterday.
You two bastards also know what kind of contribution my son has made in this operation, but do you know? After my son got home, he was almost paralyzed from exhaustion. He finally managed to rest a little longer today. You two are urging him to wake up early in the morning. Do you want to tire him to death to satisfy him? "
After being severely punished by Zhou Ruhai, the two policemen were so frightened that they quickly knelt on the ground, lowered their heads, and did not dare to say a word.
The reason why they are so afraid is that, on the one hand, Zhou Ruhai is a small official himself. Although his official position is not high, compared with these small government servants, his identity and status are still very different, so if he offends him, he will definitely be punished. No benefit.
And more importantly, Zhou Ruhai is Zhou Ruhai's father. They both know how powerful this ruthless character is. If he accidentally offends his father, the consequences will be terrible. How can the two of them be able to You can imagine it.
Mrs. Zhou and Lin Ajiao covered their mouths and laughed when they saw the two policemen acting as timid as mice.
Seeing that the two policemen were so afraid of him, Zhou Ruhai's vanity was greatly satisfied. He sat back on the chair, crossed his legs, and wanted to see how the two policemen would beg for mercy from him.
After a while, the two police officers realized that Zhou Ruhai had lost his temper. They took courage and began to beg for mercy: "Mr. Zhou, we were wrong. You have a lot of people. Please don't be as knowledgeable as us!"
Zhou Ruhai took a leisurely sip of tea, and then said very proudly: "Since you know you are wrong, then get out of here and tell your adults that Zhou Datou is too tired today and needs to rest at home for a day before going back tomorrow." yamen."
After hearing this, the two policemen looked very ugly. They raised their heads in unison, looked at Zhou Ruhai and begged with some despair: "Mr. Zhou, we really can't make the decision in this matter.
It was the two of us who made you angry just now. How do you punish us two? We both have no complaints, but Captain Zhou must go back with us. Regarding yesterday's case, we adults really have important things to talk to. Zhou Captou said that the matter was of great importance and could not be delayed. "
After saying these words, the two people knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
Mrs. Zhou glared at the two police officers, thinking that my son has already taken the prisoner back to you, so why should you ask him to go back? How to convict those people? Can you just follow the laws of Dachu? Could it be that if my son doesn’t go to the Yamen, your Yamen won’t be able to do anything?
Mrs. Zhou turned around and looked at her master, hoping that he could stick to his attitude and never let go, otherwise her son would have to go back to the Yamen again and have a hard time.
Compared with Mrs. Zhou, Lin Ajiao's thoughts are more complicated. On the one hand, she doesn't want Yi Ming to go to the Yamen and be tired, but on the other hand, she also understands that the two policemen have said all this. If it goes up, then it must be that something big has happened in the yamen, and the backbone of the yamen must be let back to take charge of the overall situation.
She originally wanted to go out and ask the two police officers what happened in the Yamen, but when she thought about the presence of her father-in-law, she gave up the idea, and finally could only focus all her attention on Regarding my father-in-law, I hope he can make a rational decision.
Zhou Ruhai saw the two policemen pleading with him, and suddenly realized that they might have something very important to come back to the Yamen this time.
Having been involved in official circles for many years, he knew very well that although Yi Ming's body was important now, his future was equally important. If anything went wrong in this Northern spy case, Yi Ming would have no chance of getting ahead if he wanted to. Not so easy anymore.
