After rebirth, the Queen and I are on the run.

Chapter 764 My Grandfather is a Retired Fifth Rank Official
Fourth Master Qu pulled back his hand and said, "Anyway, the word has spread. And the Qin family is very busy right now and has no time to deal with your family. And your family should remember one thing, it was Kong Hu who first harmed the Qin family. The Qin family did nothing wrong and did not do anything extreme. They gave us a way to settle it privately. It was you who insisted on making a scene. Take care."

"Oh, by the way, don't think about lynching. If someone dies and it affects the reputation of the Qin family, you can't afford it!"

After saying that, with the help of the soldiers, he and Mrs. Qu Si rushed to the Qin family.

The Hu brothers were angry and afraid. They looked at the Tang father and son for a moment and asked in a low voice: "Uncle, do you want to go back to the Kong family first?"

Uncle Tang also looked at Mr. Tang.

But the old scholar shook his head and said, "We were at fault first, so we should wait with sincerity... Just wait here, stand as a punishment, and apologize."

Damn old man, you are quite scheming.

The Hu brothers had no choice but to stand together on the street and wait.

They waited until Magistrate Kang's motorcade arrived at Xinda Street.

Ten cars, and this was the result after County Magistrate Kang sent people to block them, otherwise the number of vehicles following would be as high as hundreds!

Since the eunuch Qi and his team left the capital and headed for Taifeng Town, many people have paid attention to the Qin family.

The major prominent families and merchants of Dongming Prefecture even brought valuable gifts and followed the imperial edict-issuing team, hoping to take the opportunity to make friends with the Qin family.

The news spread to the county town.

The whole county was shaken as if by an earthquake. Everyone packed up their gifts and rushed to congratulate the Qin family.

Fortunately, Tian Shi Qi spoke up and said that the Qin family could not accommodate so many people, so everyone should not disturb the Qin family.

This order was also passed on to County Magistrate Kang.

County Magistrate Kang immediately issued an order to strictly investigate the families leaving the city, and those who were suspected of coming to the Qin family to congratulate were not allowed to pass.

Otherwise, the congratulatory teams from various families in the county would arrive faster than Zhou Bantou.

Dangdang Dangdang!
"The county magistrate is driving through the aisle, everyone get out of the way!" Xu Erjun and Qin Jie were appointed to lead the way. They both shouted responsibly, but they had smiles on their faces that they couldn't suppress.

"Oh my, the county magistrate really came to tell the Qin family about the good news. What kind of great news is this for the Qin family? Why did the county magistrate come in person to tell the good news?"

"Mr. Tongpan, Mr. Tongpan is here too. His rank is much higher than that of County Magistrate Kang!"

"How much higher?"

"He was so high that our County Magistrate Kang had to kneel down when he saw him. He slapped our County Magistrate in the face, and the County Magistrate still had to thank him!"

The magistrate of Kang County, Mrs. Kang, Young Master Kang, Miss Kang, and Kang Lang on horseback in the car: "..."

Please give me, my master, and our father some face.

Kang Liwen was very angry and ordered his servants: "Warn these unruly people and tell them to be careful with their words. Talking about officials is against the law and they will go to jail."

Although he often bullied his cousin, County Magistrate Kang, he was still a member of the Kang family after all. How could he be bullied by these country bumpkins? !
The servant called out, but the crowd was so noisy that the villagers didn't listen to him at all. They just said what they liked: "Oh, then this official position is indeed much higher than that of a small county magistrate."

"Such a high-ranking official has come to announce the good news to the Qin family. The Qin family's happy event this time must be as big as the sky!"

The convoy soon arrived at the Banjie sentry post, and to show respect to the Wei army, Zheng Tongpan, Luo Tongpan, Kang County Magistrate and others took the initiative to get off the vehicles and walk.

The Hu brothers originally wanted to find adults to appeal for justice and file a complaint against the Qin family, but when they saw so many adults and yamen runners, they were so scared that they fell to their knees, their tongues tied, and they couldn't utter a word.

Mr. Tang and Mr. Tang were also frightened. But Mr. Tang came with the intention of making friends with the Qin family, so he stepped forward and saluted: "I am Mr. Tang from Maohua County, and I am here to greet you, gentlemen..."

He introduced himself and explained the whole story of his visit today.

I originally thought that even if his status as a scholar was not taken into consideration, he would be taken to the Qin family by these adults for the sake of General Chi.

As long as I can follow the adults in, the Qin family will support me!

But Judge Luo frowned and said, "Didn't the Qin family agree to a private settlement? Why are you still looking for the Qin family for Kong Hu's matter? If you don't want to settle it privately, then let's do it publicly. I can send someone to accompany you to take Kong Hu to the county government office."

This, this, this?
He didn't even give me any face and just decided life or death with just one sentence.

"Sir, please calm down. Sir, please calm down. Our Kong family has always been willing to settle the matter privately. It's the Hu family... We will take our relatives back now and pay the compensation to the Qin family within today or tomorrow, and put an end to this matter!" Kong Lichang's legs were so weak that he couldn't stand up straight, and he rushed out and shouted with all his strength.

Luo Tongpan glanced at him and said: "Since the Qin family has given you an opportunity, you should seize it as soon as possible, but you must be careful not to give the Qin family a reputation of bullying, otherwise the court will definitely investigate."

"Yes, yes, the Kong family thanks you for your mercy!" Headman Kong kowtowed with tears streaming down his face... He shouldn't have been so optimistic, he shouldn't have helped delay the time for the Hu family to seek help from old scholar Tang, now he has killed the Kong family!
Miao Lichang, who was in the crowd, shouted that he had escaped a disaster… Fortunately, Miao Jinke came out to testify, otherwise his Miao family would be charged with harboring a criminal, and it would be difficult for him to make friends with the Qin family.

After returning, the clan must reward Miao Jinke with one or two taels of silver. They cannot neglect this young man who has already caught the Qin family's attention.

The adults have arrived at the Qin family.

Fortunately, Madam Guan had already arrived. With her in charge, taking over the conversation and leading the way, Grandma Qin was not so nervous when socializing.

Mrs. Kang brought Miss Kang to meet Qin Xiaomi specially. Her meaning was very clear: she wanted her daughter to have a close relationship with Qin Xiaomi.

Because County Magistrate Kang was a descendant of a branch family that was oppressed, and Mrs. Kang was a delicate woman, the children of the Kang family were well educated.

At least Kang Lang, Kang Xiaodi and Miss Kang are all kind-hearted people who don't look down on others.

"Hello, Miss Kang." Qin Xiaomi took the initiative to greet them and called Qin Ertao, Qin Mei, Qin Xiaogu and Jiang Xiaozhu to come and chat.

Miss Kang was younger than Qin Xiaomi, just thirteen, so she greeted everyone politely: "Sister Yu greets Sister Qin, hello Sister Qin."

I'm flattered!
Qin Xiaogu, Qin Mei, Qin Ertao, and Jiang Xiaozhu all stood up and said, "No, Miss Kang is a lady from an official family. She doesn't need to bow to us peasant girls."

Miss Kang Yu smiled, and then revealed the news to them according to her mother's instructions: "Old Master Qin is going to be promoted to an official position, and you are also the daughters of an official family. Old Master Qin's official position is higher than my father's, and you are all older than me, so you can accept the gift from me, your sister."

Madam Lu beside her also said, "My young lady is right. You young ladies can bear it."

If you overstep the line, she, as the nanny, will stop you.

"I see." Qin Xiaomi pulled Kang Yu to sit down, then asked, "What official position did my grandfather hold? Can you tell me?"

What?
Country people really like to say what they want. No wonder my father kept saying the word "what" during those days when he came home from the countryside.

Miss Kang Yu excused herself and replied, "Yes, the angel wrote to me and said it's a great joyous event, so I can tell you."

Little Jiang Xiaozhu is an impatient child, and she was yelling in her heart: Then sister, please speak quickly!

Miss Kang Yu said, "He was given the title of a military officer, a fifth-rank rank Qian Hu. However, this Qian Hu has already retired from the army and returned to the countryside. He does not lead any troops, but only receives the salary of a Qian Hu."

Qin Xiaomi understood: "My grandfather is a retired fifth-rank military officer."

retire?
Does that mean you've retired?
That was correct, so Kang Yu nodded: "Yes."
