CH 308 0308 Don't Be Afraid

"Why was Su Meixiang acquitted? Didn't the old master of the Liu family greet the county magistrate?" Bai Lu felt annoyed when she thought of the evil Su Meixiang being released.

Housekeeper Xiaoyuan said: "The county magistrate is only a ninth-rank sesame official, and the scholar Su Daqi rescued was a second-rank official in the frontier. To save Su Meixiang is just a matter of one sentence. Neither the county magistrate nor the Liu family dare to offend The new Governor Yao can only announce that there is insufficient evidence to acquit Su Meixiang."

Su Li said it was a pity.

Housekeeper Xiao Yuan continued to tell everyone the news he had inquired: "I heard that when Su Daqi was young, he went to the mountain to cut firewood. He happened to meet a scholar who was rushing for an exam and was chased by a wolf. Su Daqi beat the wolf and saved the scholar. There was no news for more than ten years, but who knew that when Su Daqi ran away from Su Meixiang in the county government a while ago, he met Governor Yao, and the two recognized each other. Governor Yao was said to be a kind person, so he was on the spot They ordered the release of Su Meixiang, and also found decent jobs for Su Shimao and Su Daqi in the Yamen respectively, and it is said that Su Shimao will be added as a child student."

"What? Even Su Shimao is going to be a child?" Su Li's jaw dropped in shock. In this way, Su Daqi's family suddenly prospered because of Governor Yao.

"Our family dealt with Su Meixiang and the Zhao family severely, will Su Daqi go to Governor Yao to slander, which is not good for our family?" Bai Lu worried.

Yuan Yu sighed and shook his head: "I don't know."

What Su Li was worried about was that the Su family took the opportunity to retaliate and hugged the thigh of the second-rank official of the frontier. If they really wanted to harm Su Li's family, even if Su Li's family had Li Yanhao as their backer, it would still be a headache.

After all, Governor Yao is a high-ranking official with real power and happens to be in charge of Qingmiao City, while Li Yanhao is just a dude with no real power, although he is the son of the Huainan Prince of the royal family.

"Don't think about what's there and what's not. We have a lot of things in our hands. As for the matter of revenge, if the Su family really comes to retaliate, then the soldiers will cover it up." Su Li brushed his hair.

Yuan Bao said suddenly at this moment: "My lady, don't be afraid, with me protecting my lady, no one can bully our family!"

Su Li smiled, pinched Yuan Bao's handsome face, and coaxed him softly: "Okay, I'm not afraid if my husband is here."

Afterwards, Su Shimao was indeed admitted as a child student, becoming the first person in Haizi Village to pass the exam, which immediately caused a sensation.

There was an endless stream of people who came to the Su family to congratulate her, and Zhao Shi was so happy that she could not close her mouth from ear to ear. Everyone praised her for being a promising woman, and she dreamed of being the first lady again.

This time even the Tang family came to curry favor with tofu Xi Shi.

Tang's face was flattering with a smile: "Shimao's mother, I knew that your family Shimao was blessed since I was a child. If you don't pass the Tongsheng examination, you will be a scholar next year, and you will become the number one scholar in a few years! But don’t forget folks, let us follow suit!”

With a face full of superiority, Mrs. Zhao squinted at Mrs. Tang with Fan'er on her face, hummed a few words, and said, "Well, my family's Shimao has a bright future, and I will enjoy the blessings with my son. Let me tell you, Master Yao likes my family Shimao very much, and wants to accept Shimao as his adopted son! From now on, our Shimao will be the son of a second-rank family!"

Tang Shi was so envious when he heard that, Tofu Xishi's eyes were glistening, his eyes rolled around, but he didn't see Su Shimao. He guessed that Su Shimao must be in the study, so he slipped out under the pretext of a stomachache, and sneaked in. The study room hugged Su Shimao from behind, and yelled sweetly: "Brother Shimao, people miss you so much that it hurts, so I can see you in the face."
