"Well, the county magistrate's aunt married into the Dong family."

"The Dong family!"

Mr. Lu gasped.

There are quite a few people surnamed Dong in the world, but only the Dong family in Jinzhong can be treated so seriously by Wen Hao.

That is a big family that is even more terrifying than the Han family. It has existed in the previous dynasty and has been passed down for hundreds of years. Its disciples are all over the world, and even have extraordinary influence in other countries.

He really didn't expect that there was such a behemoth behind the county magistrate.

No wonder he dared to act like a domineering, no wonder Zhao Tian's family was backed by Gao's family, and they were also very afraid of this county magistrate.

The Gao family was indeed strong back then, but it was not enough to face the Dong family.

"Is it the Jinzhong Dong family?"

Lu Yaoyao asked in surprise.

"Yes."

"Oh, that's fine."

Seeing that she was so indifferent, Wen Hao frowned slightly, and just about to speak, Lu Yaoyao smiled and said, "Uncle Shi, don't worry, I know how powerful the Jinzhong Dong family is."

"Some time ago, when I was in the capital, Dong Zixiu's wife visited my Zhuangzi."

"Ok?"

Now it was Wen Hao's turn to be surprised.

"They are very smart, you can rest assured that there will be no problem with this matter."

When Mrs. Luo was looking for her earlier, the two chatted a lot, and she also had some guesses about the future plans of the Dong family.

If it were someone else, the Dong family might still touch her, but now it's her, the Dong family should have a different response.

"Since you are confident, I won't say more."

Afterwards, Wen Hao stayed at Lu's house for lunch before leaving.

Before leaving, he invited Lu Yaoyao to Fucheng to attend her wife's birthday banquet in a few days.

Naturally, Lu Yaoyao would not refuse his invitation.

"Yaoyao, the Dong family is very powerful, are you really all right?"

Ever since he knew that the fat county magistrate was backed by the Dong family, Mr. Lu's heart was not very stable.

Even though Lu Yaoyao was very calm, he was still worried.

"Grandpa, you, don't worry about this."

"It's okay, not only is it okay, maybe the Dong family will thank me."

"Yaoyao, tell us what's going on, otherwise not only your grandfather is worried, but I am also worried."

Lu Kang followed suit.

Seeing this, Lu Yaoyao had no choice but to speak out some guesses.

"You mean, the Dong family plans to retire?"

"Impossible. It took them so many years of hard work to get to where they are today. This retreat is not a small loss. Can they be willing?"

Lu Kang directly expressed his disbelief.

Although the old man didn't say anything, he didn't quite believe it.

"That's why they survived the change of two dynasties."

"The bigger the family, the more they know how to make choices. If you can't do something, but do it forcibly, what you are waiting for is either decline or destruction."

"The Dong family has gone through so many years, and they know this very well."

"In the past few hundred years, how many great families have appeared and how many have been destroyed? The Dong family has been standing still, why?"

"Not only because of strength, but more because of being smart enough."

"No matter how powerful a family is, how is it compared with a country? What is it?"

As soon as she said these words, both Mr. Lu and Lu Kang became thoughtful.

It is true that in the past hundreds of years, there have been many families similar to the Dong family. It is even said that a few hundred years ago, the Dong family was just a small family, inferior to their Lu family.

However, those powerful families at that time have declined and collapsed until now, but the Dong family has come to the present step by step, and has always been prosperous.

There are so many things here.

"Yaoyao is right. The Dong family will indeed lose some if they take a step back, but if they don't retreat, they will lose more."

"It's just that you just said that the Dong family still needs to thank you. Grandpa doesn't understand that very well."

Lu Yaoyao smiled again.

"Retirement requires a reason. If you retreat for no reason, what will your majesty think?"

"Isn't this an opportunity?"

Now both Mr. Lu and Lu Kang understood.

Indeed, it would be a lot of trouble to reveal what the county magistrate did, and he was relying on the power of the Dong family.

Taking this opportunity, the Dong family took the blame and abdicated. With a little manipulation, not only can they achieve their own goals, but with a little manipulation, they can also gain a little reputation.

The two were completely relieved.

As soon as the time turned, it was the day when Mrs. Wen Hao held a birthday banquet.

All the direct branches of the Lu family received the invitation, and the convoy set off for Fucheng early in the morning.

In the past few days, the results of Fucheng's handling of Zhao Tian's family and the county magistrate have also come out.

First, the Zhaotian family. All the bad things they have done before have been investigated. The two families have suffered a lot of lives.

Everyone in the two families was captured by the officials from Fucheng and sent to prison.

The matter of the fat county magistrate also broke out, and his family members were also imprisoned, waiting for follow-up processing.

The three scourges were eliminated, and the people of Donglin Town rushed to tell each other with joy, and the people of Donglin Town were very grateful to the Lu family and the Wanfu County Lord who took care of the three families.

Although the Lu family was also a big family in Donglin Town in the past, they didn't do anything outrageous, and the people didn't feel bad for them. In addition to this time's pest control operation, the people's favorability has increased a lot.

"The current Donglin Town is really good, and I don't know what the next county magistrate will be like."

After leaving Lu's house, Lu Kang kept opening the curtain of the car, watching the people coming and going outside, with a smile on his face, and he couldn't help laughing.

"Hope it's a good one."

Yuan Shi smiled on the side.

The convoy quickly left Donglin Town and took the official road to Fucheng.

After walking for almost an hour, when he was about to approach Fucheng, Lu Yaoyao's carriage at the front suddenly stopped.

The carriage behind also stopped instantly.

"What's going on? Why did it stop?"

"Reached?"

Everyone in the Lu family in the back spoke in doubt.

And at the front, in front of Lu Yaoyao's carriage, there were three young girls, two girls dressed as maids, guarding a beautiful young lady tightly.

The clothes of the two maidservants were messy, and the young lady who was protected behind had a pretty pale face and red eyes.

"Save us."

A maid kowtowed to Lu Yaoyao's carriage.

At this moment, a sharp and frivolous voice sounded.

"Run, you keep running."

"Miss Wen Er, it's your good fortune that our son has taken a fancy to you, and it's even more important to you to come to see you in person, and you still don't know what's good or bad."

"It's really toasting and not eating fine wine."

The voice fell, and a group of men came from a distance, dressed as seven or eight servants, and behind him was an obese man with a pale complexion and a swollen figure.

"Miss Wen Er?"

In the carriage, Lu Yaoyao frowned slightly when he heard the movement outside.

"Go and ask what's going on."

Qiu Shuang opened the curtain and got out of the carriage.
