Chapter 144

Qiu Zhifu hurriedly came down from the tower, and stood at the gate to greet him.

If Zhou Yue was grateful and respected before, now he valued and respected him. Anyone with military power would be respected by others, let alone the elite wolf army.

With the army in hand, the strength of this Fourth Young Master should not be underestimated. From today onwards, he will be more respectful to Fourth Young Master.

The team was getting closer and closer to the city gate, and Chen Lu spotted the people under the city gate, "Fourth Young Master, there is someone waiting outside the city gate."

Zhou Yue poked her head out of the carriage and looked towards the city gate, "It's Qiu Zhenru, the prefect of Ruize Prefecture."

"The Fourth Young Master knows Magistrate Qiu?" Pei Jie asked. The Fourth Young Master also said that he was an ordinary farmer. Which farmer can know the Magistrate?
Zhou Yue nodded, "I know you. I passed by here before and learned the whereabouts of General Song from Magistrate Qiu."

"So that's how it is." Chen Lu looked at the city gate that was getting closer, and said.

Stopping in front of the city gate, Zhou Yue got out of the carriage, and Magistrate Qiu also came forward to greet him.

"The fourth son has worked hard, and the generals have worked hard, let's go to the city and take a rest." Qiu Zhifu said.

Zhou Yue cupped her hands, "Please trouble Mr. Qiu."

"The Fourth Young Master is here, please come in!" Magistrate Qiu led his team into the city, and the people in the city stopped to watch.

"Who are these people? Why are they dressed so strangely?" The people were confused and whispered.

"I don't know. He must not be an ordinary person. Otherwise, can the prefect personally greet him?" the people around him replied.

Leading the wolf army to the resettlement place, Qiu Zhifu said: "Everyone in the wolf army can rest here, if you need anything, send me a message, and I will arrange for someone to deliver it."

"Thank you, Mr. Qiu!" Chen Lu clasped his fists and said.

"Fourth Young Master, please go to my house to rest. Please take a look at my daughter's throat." Magistrate Qiu said to Zhou Yue.

"She should be able to talk, right?" Zhou Yue guessed the time, the girl's voice should be healed.

Qiu Zhifu nodded, "That's right, I can talk now. I was a little hoarse before, but it's much better these days."

"Okay, I'll go and have a look." Zhou Yue agreed to his request, since there is enough time to rest here anyway.

"Thank you, Fourth Young Master." Prefect Qiu knew that it would be difficult to invite Zhou Yue to live in his house alone, and it would be more appropriate to use his daughter's illness as an excuse.

Zhou Yue turned her head and told Chen Lu, "You guys take a break here and set off tomorrow morning."

"Yes!" Chen Lu responded. After being on the road for several days, he really deserved a break.

Zhou Yue followed Qiu Zhifu to the Qiu Mansion, and as soon as she entered the door, she saw Qiu Shuxin standing in the yard, wearing a taupe-colored pleated wishful moon skirt and a brocade-embellished cloak, staring blankly at Zhou Yue. superior.

Qiu Shuxin blinked and was stunned on the spot.

"Cough!" Qiu Zhifu coughed, this girl, why is she getting more and more stunned at this time, she didn't see her before and kept talking about it every day, but now she saw it, why didn't she respond?

The sound of coughing brought Qiu Shuxin back to her thoughts. It was really the Fourth Young Master who came, and he seemed to be a little taller than before.

"Fourth Young Master, do you still remember me?" Qiu Shuxin saluted and asked.

When Zhou Yue heard her voice, she felt that she would be fine after a while, "Of course I remember, Miss Qiu, long time no see. Congratulations on your recovery."

Qiu Shuxin smiled, "Thank you, Fourth Young Master, I take good medicine every day."

Zhou Yue nodded, "Yes, you are recovering well, I will show you later."

"Okay." After Qiu Shuxin finished speaking, she glanced at Zhou Yue, lowered her head, and raised the corners of her mouth unconsciously. She felt that the luckiest thing in her life was to run into the arms of a young man that night and hug him tightly.

Not only did the teenager save her, but he also healed her throat, allowing her to speak again.

"Fourth son, please, I have already arranged for lunch, let's go eat first." Qiu Zhifu saw that his daughter had finished speaking, and took Zhou Yue to the front hall.

Qiu Shuxin returned to the backyard with a smile on her lips. After a while, the Fourth Young Master would be able to give her a follow-up examination, and she would be able to talk to him again, which made her happy just thinking about it.

Mrs. Qiu saw her daughter's face was blushing, and she smirked a few times from time to time, without noticing that she was here.

"Xin'er." Mrs. Qiu called out.

"Ah!" Qiu Shuxin was startled, and saw the person sitting on the chair clearly, "Mom! You scared me!"

"I'm scaring you? You're giggling by yourself, and you haven't noticed me for so long? I'm afraid Hun Er has gone to the front hall!" Mrs. Qiu joked.

"Oh, mother, don't tease me, I just met the fourth son, he is even more handsome than before!" Qiu Shuxin said with a smile.

"Yes, yes, he is handsome, can you fall in love with him if he is not handsome?" Mrs. Qiu nodded.

"Mom, what are you talking about? I just want to thank him, he is my savior." Qiu Shuxin blushed again and lowered her head as she said.

Seeing that her daughter was shy, Mrs. Qiu said, "Oh, so I didn't like him, that's right, such an excellent son, maybe the family has already been engaged."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Shuxin's face immediately turned pale. That's right, the Fourth Young Master is so nice. Could it be that he is already engaged?

"Mom, what should we do? Is he already engaged?" Qiu Shuxin looked at Mrs. Qiu in panic, with a trembling tone in her voice.

Seeing that her daughter was really anxious, Mrs. Qiu stopped teasing her, got up and took Qiu Shuxin's hand, and comforted her: "Don't worry, I'll ask your father to find out what's going on at the fourth son's house."

Qiu Shuxin nodded, "Yes, let Dad ask! Quick, send a letter to Dad!"

The prefect Qiu is entertaining Zhou Yue, and he picked up the flagon to pour wine for Zhou Yue, "Come, Fourth Young Master, drink!"

Zhou Yue hurriedly pressed down on the jug, "Master Qiu, I am still too young to drink. If I have a chance in the future, I will invite you to drink."

This body has been raised with great difficulty, but it can't be broken any longer.

Qiu Zhifu came to his senses, he always ignored Zhou Yue's age, "It's my fault, I forgot the age of the Fourth Young Master, haha, I will punish myself with three cups!"

Qiu Zhifu drank three glasses of wine in a row, and said to Zhou Yue: "Fourth Young Master eats vegetables, eat more!"

While we were eating, a servant came in after a while and handed a letter to Magistrate Qiu.

Prefect Qiu frowned, who sent the letter so urgently?

Zhou Yue pretended not to see, and continued to eat with her head down.

Opening the envelope, Magistrate Qiu unfolded the letter. After reading it, his mouth twitched. It was actually a letter from the backyard!

His wife and daughter asked him to find out if the fourth son was engaged?
That's it?It was delivered in a hurry, he thought it was an urgent report from somewhere!
Qiu Zhifu glanced at Zhou Yue, thinking about how to speak.
