Shui Miao: "I don't know."
Xu Zhouxing: "." No, how did you find out? What about the process? Eaten by you? I won't let you deal with me like this!
After taking a few deep breaths to prevent himself from being angered to death, he spoke again: "Ahem, do you have any guesses about the person who stole the child?"
Shui Miao said calmly: "The Meng family."
She has also heard some things about the Meng family these days. Meng Xiang only has three daughters and no sons. He has adopted boys several times in the past. Most of those boys were bought from farmers. Some were voluntary and some were used by him. Some methods were used, but without exception, these bought children died of illness soon after due to various reasons.
Those people who sell their children also hope that their children will have a good life. Some people even have the luck to think that if their children grow up in the Meng family and inherit the Meng family business, their own lives will be better in the future.
But now both hopes and calculations have failed, and no one is willing to sell their children to him.
In addition, someone came to steal the child that night. Shui Miao guessed that Meng Xiang was in the business of abducting and trafficking children.
Xu Zhouxing: "The Meng family has some assets in Fucheng, and they behave normally. Why do you think it's the Meng family?"
Shui Miao looked straight at Xu Zhouxing: "Sir, I was passing by here."
It means that I, an outsider, have never offended the Meng family before, but he sent someone to steal the child. Is this normal?
Xu Zhouxing: "." Can't you say a few more words and explain it clearly? What, are you tired?
Xu Zhouxing was so exhausted by Shui Miao that he called people to find out what was going on.
Shui Miao picked up the cup and took a sip of water, then continued: "Sir, I'm here mainly because I want to do a business with you."
Xu Zhouxing: "." He has never been so speechless before. What he said before was not the purpose of her coming.
"I am an official and cannot do business, otherwise I would be competing with the people for profit."
Shui Miao tilted his head and thought for a while: "Oh, I'm here to help you improve your political performance." Xu Zhouxing: Boy, you sound very loud. Political achievements are so easy to achieve.
However, looking at Shui Miao's calm look, he became somewhat interested in listening, "Tell me how you can help me improve my political performance."
Shui Miao took out some dry rice noodles and said, "Sir, let me cook this. The method is similar to noodles."
Xu Zhouxing took the rice noodles, his eyes showing surprise: "What is this?"
Shui Miao: "Eat."
Xu Zhouxing: "." Fortunately, this is not his son, otherwise he would have given birth to his son in the morning and would have lost several years of his life.
He felt that he had such a good temper that he didn't kick Shui Miao out. If he got along with Shui Miao a few more times, he would become a Buddha instantly.
I found a boy and asked him to take the things to the kitchen and cook them.
Shui Miao stood up and picked up the snacks on Xu Zhouxing's table and ate them without any intention of talking.
Xu Zhouxing: "!!!" Do you regard this place as your own home?
He wanted to get angry, but after thinking about it, it was not worth it, so he sat next to him angrily and ignored Shui Miao.
Then he was startled. When did he become so childish? Why would he care about this little boy?
To be honest, Shui Miao was quite surprised. She didn't expect Xu Zhouxing to have such a good temper that he didn't even drive her out.
Well, the people's evaluation of him is still not accurate enough.
This can't be blamed on the people. The people are afraid of officials. In their minds, they don't see officials if they can't see them. They have no understanding of the temperament of the prefect.
