Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 11297

As for the constables and prison bosses, who are the enforcement officers who run errands for them, sometimes they take advantage of their positions to do something, and the people above them turn a blind eye to it. After all, if the water is too clear, there will be no fish.

Especially since this time it was instructed by the county magistrate's wife, they naturally would not ask any questions.

But unexpectedly, the victims turned out to be General Luo's brother-in-law and his family, and even the younger brother of the new governor of Changhuai Prefecture.

"The two officials from the Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of War were both deputy generals in General Luo's army in the past. Especially the one from the Ministry of Justice, General Luo had shown him great kindness."

"Tonight, the Minister of Justice went to the prison to pick up someone, but was stopped by General Luo."

Mrs. Tao was rubbing Hu Xuesong's back to relieve his anger. When she heard what Xie Junhao said, she looked at Xie Junhao with eyes that were very similar to Hu Wangjia's, with the same clear and stupid eyes: "Why do you want to stop it? Prison is not a place for people to stay. Why don't you let him out? It would be great if he could be taken out!"

Xie Junhao didn't want to pay any attention to his mother-in-law's stupid questions.

But Hu Xuesong understood.

He scolded Tao: "Women, you don't know shit, shut up and don't embarrass yourself here anymore!"

Tao was scolded for no reason and looked aggrieved, but he did not dare to get angry.

After Hu Xuesong scolded Tao, he turned to face Xie Junhao with a look of deep helplessness on his face.

"Thank you for reminding me, my dear son-in-law. I know what to do next."

"This is a matter between my Hu family and the He family. It has nothing to do with you. Go back!"

Xie Junhao nodded slightly, and walked straight out of the Hu family with Hu.

Mrs. Hu kept her head down all the way and dared not say a word.

She knew that she had secretly instructed the constable and the jailer to do something in order to protect her natal family, which had displeased her husband and might even bring him trouble. So, Hu felt guilty and flustered, and she dared not even raise her head.

After sitting in the carriage, Xie Junhao looked at his wife who had followed him all the way and suffered a lot, and said: "In the past two years in Qing'an County, you used my identity as the wife of the county governor to do everything for your family behind my back. I know everything!"

Hu's heart tightened, she raised her head suddenly, and stammered: "Husband, I was wrong, but I only have this one brother in my family..."

Xie Junhao raised his hand to stop Hu from crying and explaining.

He had long seen that his wife was a brother-supporting woman. Not to mention that he was now a county magistrate, even if he was just a small county magistrate, he had to support his family with a not-so-generous salary and had no money to take a concubine. However, his wife would rummage through all the boxes and cabinets to find ways to support her parents during the holidays.

She secretly cashed in the jewelry she bought for her wife and exchanged it for banknotes to give to her brother from her mother's family as pocket money...

"I won't hold you accountable for anything that happened before today, including the trouble you caused this time."

"Thank you, husband... I promise you, I will never do it again!" Mrs. Hu was so moved that her eyes filled with tears.

Xie Junhao raised his hand to stop her from being moved again, "I haven't finished speaking yet."

"Husband, please speak."

"My mother misses her relatives and friends in her hometown and wants to go back to her old house to live for a while. Please go back with her!"

"Okay, I'll go back with my mother-in-law, but if I leave, there will be no one to take care of my husband, and I'm worried..."

"It's okay. Serving your mother-in-law is your duty as a daughter-in-law!"

"Yes, everything is up to my husband."

The word "wife" made Mrs. Hu secretly feel lucky. After all, they were a young couple who had been through hardships together. Even if I got into trouble, my husband would always be able to protect me.

However, when Mrs. Hu followed Xie Junhao out of the carriage and entered the Xie family's house in the backyard of the Qing'an County Government Office, Mrs. Hu prepared to prepare some clean clothes for Xie Junhao and waited for her husband to wash and go to bed.

But he was stopped by Xie Junhao. "You have to leave early tomorrow morning, don't overwork yourself, go back to your room and have a good rest."

"Husband, won't you take a rest?"

"I'm going to rest in the study tonight."

"But you can't be left alone, you need water at night..."

"I have arranged for Hanxiang to serve."

Contains fragrance?

Who is Hanxiang?

Hu's mind suddenly went blank for a moment. This name was familiar yet unfamiliar.

It was not until Xie Junhao walked away that the maidservant beside Mrs. Hu reminded her quietly: "Madam, Miss Hanxiang was given to you by the wealthy businessman who came from Jiangsu and Zhejiang to attract investment last year. Your Excellency respected you and never took Miss Hanxiang in. But he felt sorry for her because she had nowhere to go, so he found a job for her in an embroidery shop on the street..."

Hu remembered!

She was a fair-skinned girl from Jiangnan, about the same age as Wangjia, with a pair of beautiful eyes. She was very thin, but she danced very beautifully, with a soft and thin waist...

Last year, the merchant gave the gift to her husband as a gift. Her husband respected her and never took a concubine or a maid.

Even though Hanxiang was very beautiful, her husband was very restrained. He sent her to an embroidery workshop to provide her with a living, and never mentioned the matter again.

Mrs. Hu swayed and looked into the study. The candlelight projected Xie Junhao's figure on the window screen.

Behind him, a graceful figure appeared, and a pair of smooth hands slowly climbed onto Xie Junhao's shoulders...

Mrs. Hu's body was shaking uncontrollably. She covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief and turned her head away to sob.

She turned around and went back to her room, ran to the bed, lay on the quilt, and burst into tears...

The maid followed her to the bedside, also at a loss as to what to do.

"Madam, don't be sad. You are the wife of the county magistrate. What is Hanxiang? She is just a tool used by the master to serve..."

Hu shook his head.

The maidservant is too young to understand.

Xie Junhao was able to bring Hanxiang back tonight at lightning speed, and he sent me back to my hometown in the countryside to accompany my mother-in-law to guard the house. Not only was he dissatisfied with the Hu family and wanted to punish me, but he also wanted to use this incident to bring Hanxiang back who had been hiding outside...

Xie Junhao, she always thought she knew her husband very well.

At this moment, she realized that she had never really understood him from the beginning to the end.

The reason he refused to accept Hanxiang was because he had just taken office as county magistrate and he wanted to maintain his reputation. He didn't want a fire in his backyard.

If he was really determined not to take a concubine and to respect his wife, he should have decisively returned Hanxiang to the merchant and let him take her back to Jiangnan.

The so-called sending her to an embroidery workshop, finding a job for the other party, and having nothing to do with each other from then on were all lies to deceive his wife.

They had already been repairing their plank roads in the open while secretly marching through Chencang!
This time, he took advantage of the incident at my mother's house to send me away. I'm afraid he will only favor Hanxiang...

Mrs. Hu cried sadly and desperately.

She was a concubine's daughter in her mother's family and was not treated as a human being. Everything she did had to be done for her younger brother's sake.
