Chapter 355 The heartless man

I was dumbfounded, watching the raindrops on the eaves change from broken beads to a straight line, and scratched the back of my head again.

Has his mouth really ever been blessed?

I really need to be more careful in the future and not say anything unlucky, lest it really come true.

It must be said that the boss and Madam Jiang are in love, and they will have a happy marriage and have a baby soon...

After a few busy days, Xia Mingyue and others packed all their luggage.

According to the schedule, Xia Mingyue will set off tomorrow.

But that afternoon, there were guests coming to Xia Mingyue's house.

It was none other than the legal advisor of Pei Chenghe, the magistrate of Jinqiu County, whose surname was Zheng.

"Master Zheng, I am honored to have you here. I wonder what may bring you here for you." Xia Mingyue asked respectfully.

"I don't deserve it. Madam Xia really flatters me." Master Zheng returned the greeting to Xia Mingyue very respectfully. "Lord Pei heard that Madam Xia was going to Changzhou City, so he sent me here specially."

"First, I am here to see Madam Xia off. I hope everything goes well for her. Second, Lord Pei asked me to tell Madam Xia that she can go with peace of mind. With Lord Pei in Jinqiu County, everything will be safe and nothing will go wrong."

This refers to Jinqiu County, and also to the business of Xia Ji and Buyunlou.

Xia Mingyue smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern, Master Pei."

"This is all as we should do. Madam Xia, please don't be polite." Master Zheng said, "Originally, Lord Pei was going to come here in person, but now it is the rainy season, and Lord Pei and the other two masters are on the river bank supervising the reinforcement of the river bank. They eat and live on the river bank, so they really don't have time to spare, so they specially sent me here."

"Master Pei also said that I am here for the same reason as Master Pei. Madam Xia, if there is anything you need advice on or if you are worried about anything, please feel free to mention it."

"Thank you, Lord Pei." Xia Mingyue was grateful in her heart, "Xia Ji and Buyunlou are doing a booming business in Jinqiu County. It is inevitable that a big tree attracts wind. It is extremely lucky to have Lord Pei's care. I don't ask for anything else."

"Madam Xia and Shopkeeper Ge are both honest businessmen. Lord Pei understands what's going on and will know how to handle it. Madam Xia, please rest assured..."

Master Zheng talked for a long time and left only when the sun was setting.

After sending him away, Mrs. Lu was surprised, "How did the county magistrate know that you were going to Changzhou City?"

Then he sighed, "But it's good for the county magistrate to know. Regardless of the future care, as long as he can do things fairly, it will be a good thing for our Xiaji and Buyunlou."

"Yes." Xia Mingyue nodded with a smile, "With County Magistrate Pei's support, those scoundrels dare not act rashly. It is indeed a good thing."

As for the fact that County Magistrate Pei knew that she was going to Changzhou Prefecture...

According to the experience of the previous few incidents, Lu Qiyan must have been worried after receiving the letter, so he specifically informed County Magistrate Pei?
I have to say that Lu Qiyan’s consideration was very thoughtful.

However, since Lu Qiyan had the time to write a letter to inform County Magistrate Pei, why didn't he think of writing her back?

Up to now, she has only received one letter from Lu Qiyan.

Moreover, because she often took out the letter to read it, the paper was rubbed and became a little old, and even the edges were slightly curled...

Humph, what a heartless man!

Xia Mingyue pouted her lips.

The next day, Manager Fu came to pick people up on time as agreed upon previously.

Xia Mingyue, Jiang Zhuguo, and Zhuang Cui, a total of three people, just rode in one carriage. The second carriage was occupied by him and a few servants, and the third carriage was carrying some boxes and other things that Xia Mingyue and the other two had packed.

After arranging everything, Manager Fu looked at Wu Jin with some worry.

He didn't know in advance that Xia Mingyue would take Wu Jin to Changzhou City, so he didn't make any special preparations. In this case, how to arrange for them was a problem...

"Don't worry, Steward Fu. It's hot these days, and Wu Jin doesn't have to go to the carriage. He can just sit in the front of the carriage we're riding in."

Xia Mingyue said, "Wu Jin is usually well-behaved. He has ridden in a carriage before, so he is quite used to it. He won't run around or bark." "Okay, let's do as Madam Xia says." Manager Fu breathed a sigh of relief and went to arrange for the coachman.

After all, if he wants to sit with Wu Jin, it is better to ask the driver's opinion. Otherwise, if he doesn't like cats and dogs and is quite disgusted with them along the way, if Madam Xia sees it, wouldn't she think that he is incompetent in managing his subordinates?

Just when Manager Fu asked who wanted to drive with Wu Jin, the three coachmen's eyes suddenly lit up and they raised their hands one after another.

"I, I'm willing to go."

"Let me go. I have been driving for a long time and I am the most stable. Madam Xia and the other two are all women and are most afraid of bumps. I am the most suitable person to go."

"I'll go, I can hum a song, and I'm sure Madam Xia and the other two won't get bored along the way..."

Steward Fu glanced at the three of them and said, "I've thought about it. Wu Jin should ride in a carriage with me."

"Then I will drive the carriage for Steward Fu!"

"Get out of the way, I'll do it!"

"..."

Manager Fu: "…"

I was worried that some people would be unwilling to go, but now it seems that there is simply a rush to get there!

But if you think about it carefully, if he were a coachman, he would be willing to accompany such a tall, mighty and hairy creature all the way!

At this moment, Wu Jin, who was being fought over, panted heavily, stuck out his tongue, squinted his eyes, and grinned.

I told you, Wu Jin is always the most popular puppy!

forever!

After bidding farewell to Lu, Song, Zhou and others from the central kitchen, as well as Master and Apprentice Yin Lingyou from next door, Xia Mingyue and the other two got on the carriage.

The person who would drive the coach was finally decided by rock-paper-scissors, and was a coachman named Wengui.

Wengui got on the carriage, looked at the majestic Wu Jin squatting beside him, smiled so much that his eyebrows and eyes disappeared, his teeth were almost all exposed, and then he let go of the reins.

Go out of the city and head west.

It was a cloudy and windy day. Although it was the height of summer, the weather was not too hot while walking and it was still acceptable.

Wengui kept chatting with Wu Jin along the way.

"Wu Jin, look, there are a lot of little birds over there. Do you want to catch one?"

"What does Wu Jin like to eat on weekdays? When we get to the town, I'll help you find some meat bones to eat, okay?"

"Wu Jin, are you hungry? I have some biscuits with me. If you have nothing to do, you can eat them."

"The lotus flowers in the lotus pond are so beautiful. Would Wu Jin like some lotus leaves?"

"..."

Wu Jin stood majestically at the beginning, then squatted, and later lay down completely, even covering his ears with his paws.

This is the first time I’ve seen such a noisy person in my life!

It seems that sometimes being too popular is not a particularly good thing.

Except for a simple lunch in a town at noon, the group kept on traveling until it was completely dark, when they arrived at Changzhou City.
