I went back to ancient times to do business with my game account

Chapter 173
Qiao Yun hurried home with Gu Yu.

After returning home, according to Qiao Yun's instructions, Gu Yu changed the beef that should be cut into a knife, and the meat that should be marinated. Shidi told Yun Xuemei.

Yun Xuemei couldn't help frowning upon hearing this.

"Right now, I think we have to confess to the county magistrate." Qiao Yun said a little nervously, "It's better to confess this matter than to wait for others to ask."

"Indeed." Yun Xuemei nodded in agreement.

But you can't just tell the county magistrate so boldly that I was your donkey before, and Yun Xuemei is not my mother at all...

Sometimes if one lie is told, countless lies must be used to cover it up.

Qiao Yun thought for a while, whispered something into Yun Xuemei's ear.

"Just say that for a while, and adapt the rest, okay?"

Yun Xuemei nodded seriously.

Then the two put on their most decent clothes, Qiao Yun wiped her face with facial oil, applied makeup powder, and put on a ponytail, and randomly picked a pair from the set of hair masks that Meng Shaoqing gave her to cover her temples. Putting it on, the two walked quickly to the county magistrate's mansion hand in hand.

Meng Renfu was discussing with others in the main room behind the county government office to distribute spring plowing grain to farmers.

Hearing a report from the next inspection, saying that the bad guys under his command caught two crazy women who disturbed the order in the market, and asked if they should be arraigned now.

Meng Renfu was struggling with reconciliation with the master bookkeeper, and waved his hand impatiently: "Didn't you see that I am busy? Let them hang out for a few days! Since they caused trouble in the market, let them eat two days of prison food, kill them!" Re-examination with vigor."

"Yes." The inspector had no choice but to back down.

After a while, another servant came to report: "My lord, Mrs. Yun and Mrs. Qiao came to visit and said they have something important to discuss."

Meng Renfu, who was impatient just now, immediately put down the copybook in his hand, and said, "Quick! Lead them to sit in the side hall!"

Master Zhao looked confused: "My lord, then this spring plowing..."

"You can figure it out for yourself." Meng Renfu stroked his beard with a smile, and finally instructed seriously, "Calculate carefully, how many grains are given to each family, and don't make any mistakes."

"Yes." The chief bookkeeper replied helplessly, and continued to lower his head to dial the abacus.

In the side hall of the county government office, Yun Xuemei and Qiao Yun were led to sit on the kang under the window of Xici Room, which was a very kind way of hospitality.Soon another maid served two cups of fried fragrant tea.

"Mrs. Yun, Miss Qiao!" Meng Renfu walked into the room with an official smile on his face, and sat on the grand teacher's chair opposite. "Didn't you guys go to the market today? What happened to you when you came so early?"

"It's the trouble caused by going to the market." Yun Xuemei smiled helplessly, and bowed her body with apology: "Now it's the busy season of spring plowing and farming, and the slave family will come to disturb the adults, and the adults take time out of their busy schedules to see our mother and daughter. Both of you are truly grateful.”

"Stop!" Meng Renfu's temples twitched when he heard the polite words, and he quickly waved his sleeves: "Our two families are also acquaintances, Mrs. Yun, please don't greet me with such empty words anymore, I have a headache. If you have anything to say, just say it!"

"Okay. Then I'll just say it straight. Today, when the young girl went out to go to the market, she met two women, one old and one young, and she kept giving way to girl Yun, saying that girl Yun was the eldest girl of their family. Unbelievable..."

Meng Renfu hissed and raised his eyebrows: "Is it something about the area on Ning'an Street in the south of the city?"

"Yes... Although some bad people arrived in time and rescued the little girl. But the little girl was still frightened a lot..."

"So that's what happened!" Meng Renfu thought to himself, it's not a big deal.Disturbing order is not a big deal, but it can be big or small. If someone in the family pays for ransom, they can be released.But since they were the ones who collided with their own friends, they would have to be locked up for a few more months, beaten and fined.

Meng Renfu took a sip of tea and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely punish them severely! You don't have to travel all the way to this matter!"

"It's not this." Yun Xuemei's expression was serious, she looked very serious, she sighed, "You don't know, girl Yun is not my biological daughter, but the girl I lived in a deserted area outside the city nearly two months ago. I picked it up from a ruined temple..."

Yun Xuemei unhurriedly described the matter of picking up Qiao Yun to Meng County Magistrate, emphasizing how thin Qiao Yun was at that time, how seriously ill she was, and she almost died...

As she said, Qiao Yun snuggled into Yun Xuemei's arms obediently, with an appearance of being very attached to Yun Xuemei.

"At that time, when I asked the doctor to see her, the doctor said that the child's pulse condition looked like it had been injected with sweat medicine... I didn't dare to think about it, who would have the heart to do something to such a small and obedient lady? "

"I saw that she couldn't remember who her family was, so she kept her by her side first. Hearing the old woman yelling like this today, I was thinking, what if the old woman is really girl Yun's grandmother? Her granddaughter was killed by someone. She was almost hurt, she must have been very anxious for the past two months! It is better to invite the old man to come and ask carefully, what if it is true!"

"..."

Yun Xuemei described the scene at that time vividly, and Meng Renfu frowned more and more as he heard it.

"I'm not busy with this matter, I'm afraid it's a bit strange!" He stroked his beard, pondered for a while, and said, "It may not be such a coincidence."

"You can look up the household registration!" Yun Xuemei reminded, "If what the old lady said is true, you will definitely save a copy of the household registration of Qiao's family in Baihe Village. This person is Yun. At that time, she must have been small and didn’t have any portraits. You can compare the looks of her parents. If they look very similar, you will be a match!”

Meng Renfu was noncommittal.

He can naturally think of this, but his focus is not here.

As Yun Xuemei said, the incident happened two months ago, when he was still in the county government and was about to return to Chang'an.In the winter, a child dressed as thin as paper, no matter where he came to the ruined temple, is extremely abnormal, but he has never received a report of a family losing a child, even after returning from Chang'an. , The county magistrate and the chief book did not mention similar things in their reports.

Who would ignore their child for two months after it disappeared?
Then there is only one possibility - they threw the child away themselves.

He looked at Qiao Yun.

The first time he saw this little girl was also two months ago. He was about to leave Quwo that day, and was in the county government to explain some county affairs to the county seat and the master. Crossing Ming Road, the two hurriedly met each other.Because he was in a hurry to leave, he handed over the matter to the master bookkeeper.

When he saw Miss Qiao again, it was time for him to go to her restaurant to drink.

"I know." Meng Renfu nodded kindly, then looked at Qiao Yun comfortingly, and said, "She must have suffered a lot of shocks today, so why not stay in the humble house for a few days. This is not a trivial matter You two live far away, so it’s inconvenient to run around, and it happens that Qingqing hasn’t seen you for a while, so it’s a way to relieve boredom when you two stay together, how about it?”

"Then bother." Yun Xuemei nodded slightly, and Meng Renfu sent the two of them to the back of the mansion.

After sending the two away, Meng Renfu bowed his head and pondered for a while.

After a moment he looked up.

"Come here, bring the household registration book!"
