Seeing that Lin Ajiao was not frightened by what he said, Zhou Yiming felt very relieved. At the same time, he thought to himself, if there was no wife at home, I would not dare to leave casually. After all, those thieves in the North are ruthless. If they were to carry out their revenge plan, their families would be in great danger.
He took Lin Ajiao's hand and said with gratitude: "Madam, I'm lucky to have you at home, otherwise I wouldn't dare to go out.
This time I go out to do errands and may not come back very late. If my parents are worried, you must persuade them on my behalf and not make them too anxious. "
Lin Ajiao nodded. Although her heart was full of reluctance, she still nodded stubbornly and agreed: "Ms., I understand. I will take good care of my parents. Don't worry about your family. Just do what you should do." It’s okay, we’re waiting for you to come back.”
After admonishing Lin Ajiao, Zhou Yiming turned around and walked out of the room, followed closely by Lin Ajiao, and the two of them went straight to the front yard.
The servants in the front yard were already busy in the yard. After everyone saw the young master and the young mistress, they all greeted them warmly.
"Good morning, Master."
"Master and mistress, you guys got up so early."
Because they had important matters to deal with, Yi Ming and Lin Gillian just nodded to these servants and did not speak a word along the way.
When he came to the study, Zhou Ming said as soon as he entered the door: "Who is looking for me?"
The two police officers stood aside. They thought that after Lin Ajiao left, it would take a long time to call Zhou Yi, so during this period, the two people felt a little more relaxed. They took advantage of this time to I have been thinking about what method they should use to avoid being punished if Zhou Yiming really gets angry.
After much thought, neither of them came up with any good solution. As a result, just when they were worried, Yi Ming suddenly came. This made the two of them scared and at the same time very unprepared.
The two of them gritted their teeth, took two steps forward, then bowed to Yi Ming and said respectfully: "Mr. Zhou, on the order of Deng's inspection, we are here to ask you to go back to the Yamen to discuss the request. thing."
After Zhou Yiming saw the two people, he ignored them. He greeted his father and mother first, then turned around and looked at the two policemen carefully.
He didn't know these two police officers, but he had an impression of both of them. These two boys were marginal figures in the inspection yamen in the south of the city. They might not even be qualified to talk to Yi Ming, so he immediately It looks a little unfamiliar.
"After a busy day and night yesterday, I almost died of exhaustion. I finally took a chance to have a good rest at home. Why did Mr. Deng send you to call me so early? He doesn't care about my life or death at all. ." Although he had already decided in his heart to follow the two policemen back to the Yamen, Zhou Yiming still showed a very reluctant look because he wanted to use this method to leave a bad impression on the two policemen. Leave an impression on them so that they can remember it for a long time. Otherwise, when the yamen encounters something big and small in the future, they will call him back. Even if he is not tired to death, he will be bored to death in the end.
The two police officers saw signs of anger on Yi Ming, so they immediately knelt on the ground and tried their best to explain: "Master Zhou, why did Inspector Deng call you back to the Yamen? We two don't know. We were just following orders." , please don’t make it difficult for us both.”
Zhou Ruhai and Mrs. Zhou also knew their son's character. They were afraid that if their son was angry and really attacked the two policemen, it would cause big trouble. Although the two policemen had low official positions and low status, after all, It's human life. My son's martial arts skills are so high. If he did anything to these two ordinary people, their lives might be in danger.
Zhou Ruhai hesitated whether to persuade Yi Ming. Just when he couldn't make up his mind, Mrs. Zhou had already started to take action.
Mrs. Zhou stood up slowly, walked to Yi Ming's side, and whispered in his ear: "Son, why are you angry with these two policemen? They are also pitiful people. They came to our house. There is nothing we can do about asking you to go back.
If you are angry, go back to the Yamen and talk to Inspector Deng. As the saying goes, every injustice has its owner, and every debt has its owner. Don't take your anger out on these two innocent people. "
Lin Ajiao was also worried that Yi Ming would do something extreme, so she immediately stood in front of Yi Min, hoping to prevent accidents from happening in this way.
After seeing the reaction of his mother and daughter-in-law in the room, Zhou Yiming smiled bitterly in his heart and thought to himself, what impression did I leave on my parents and daughter-in-law? Why are they afraid that I will lose control of my emotions whenever I get angry? Do they think I am a lunatic who cannot control my emotions?
He smiled helplessly, and quickly lowered his voice and explained to Mrs. Zhou: "Mom, why are you taking it seriously? I got so angry just to scare them. Otherwise, whenever they encounter something bad in the future, they will come. If you look for me at home, will I still have a good life?"
After hearing these words, Mrs. Zhou realized in her heart that Zhou Ming's angry look just now was all fake.
"That's good. It's the same when you return to the Yamen. You must be calm when encountering things and don't act out of anger." After understanding Yi Ming's good intentions, Mrs. Zhou took advantage of the situation and gave a few instructions.
Lin Ajiao stood not far in front of Yi Ming, so she heard the conversation between him and Mrs. Zhou, and felt much more at ease.
After clearing up the misunderstanding in his old mother's heart, Zhou Yiming angrily said to the two policemen: "Did I blame you? You two kneeled down very fast, you are really mean.
Stand up quickly, and never say outside that you are from the city's south inspection yamen, otherwise I will be embarrassed. "
The two policemen were kneeling on the ground in panic, not knowing how Zhou Ming would deal with them later. Suddenly they heard Zhou Ming ask them to stand up. Both of them felt like they had been reborn, so that Zhou Ming finally cursed. Neither of them listened to their words.
Without enough time to pay attention to the two police officers, Zhou Yiming hurriedly walked to his father and said very seriously: "Dad, it seems that something big happened in the Yamen. I must go back quickly. Everything at home is... Please dad, please pay more attention."
Zhou Yiming did this with good intentions, because he felt that he had too much limelight yesterday. In comparison, his father's face was almost lost. If he didn't give his father enough face at this moment, , not only will there be a gap in the hearts of the two people, but it will be terrible if the father is broken and indifferent to the affairs of the family.
After all, most of Yi Ming's time and energy are now devoted to his outside career. It is difficult for him to take care of the things at home. In this case, his father will give up on the things at home. , many problems will soon arise in the family. Although my mother and daughter-in-law are very virtuous, it is not impossible to let them manage the family, but it is still very inconvenient for women to deal with many things.
It was precisely based on the above considerations that Zhou Ming said such words to his father in front of outsiders.
While Zhou Yiming was talking to the two police officers, Zhou Ruhai had been sitting on a chair drinking tea. Although he tried his best to appear leisurely and content, he actually felt very uncomfortable in his heart.
Because of the scene in front of him, he suddenly felt that he had failed. After all, he had been an official outside for decades, but during this period, only a few people came to the house to look for him, and in recent years, Years, almost none.
On the other hand, his son Yi Ming, this boy only worked as a yamen official for a few months, but he became very prosperous in these few months. Not only did he stand up several times in a row Da Gong has become the most famous person in the world, and there is an endless stream of people coming to his house to see him.
The huge contrast between the two people made Zhou Ruhai, the father, feel very uncomfortable and under great pressure, because he knew in his heart that if his son continued to develop at this rate, he would probably become the most important person relied on by the current emperor. Although such a result would restore the Zhou family to its former glory, Zhou Ruhai was also very worried. Once his son achieved such extraordinary achievements, would he still be his father in his eyes? This is a very difficult question to pin down.
Just when Zhou Ruhai was troubled by this problem, he suddenly looked up and found that after Zhou Yiming scolded the two policemen, he slowly walked towards him.
Zhou Ruhai was a little nervous at first. He was afraid that Yi Ming would take the opportunity to find fault with him and complain about why he didn't stop the two police officers.
Just when he didn't know how to deal with it, Zhou Ming suddenly spoke and entrusted the family affairs to him in a serious manner. Moreover, during the whole process of speaking, he had a humble attitude and a calm tone.
After hearing these words, Zhou Ruhai almost jumped up with joy, because he understood that his son's ability to say these words proved that he still had a place in his heart.
Zhou Ruhai quickly put down his tea cup, showed his fatherly style, and said to Zhou Ming seriously: "Son, don't worry about the family affairs, I'm here.
You must be careful when you are out working for the court. If you cannot return home in time because you have something to deal with, you must ask someone to send a message home. Don't let your wife and mother worry too much about you. "
"Yes, my son knows." Zhou Yiming saluted, "Then I'll leave."
Zhou Ruhai nodded, feeling an inexplicable sadness in his heart. He knew that he was reluctant to leave Zhou Ming.
Zhou Yiming then said goodbye to his mother and daughter-in-law. After all these things were done, he shouted loudly outside: "Laifu, prepare the carriage, we will go to the Yamen immediately."
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the study was stunned.
