Liaozhai: I just want salted fish with invincible magical powers

Chapter 196 Father-in-law Arrives
The next day, Hu Qianxiumu was catching up with Xu Fengnian and Kong Xueli to deal with the trivial matters of the county government. He took sister Xue Ningshuang and Chu Chu to wander in the street.

This is the first time I have come to Guobei County for a long time.

If it was before, bandits and tyrants were rampant in the county. Standing on the street and taking a casual look, they were all vicious men with swords.

After Hu Qian dealt with Liu Fugui, Li Yuanwai, Wang Shengdong and others, the atmosphere on the streets became much clearer.

Although it is not a festive season, there are still many people there, passing by, doing business, walking the streets and alleys, talking and laughing, it is very lively.

Xue Ningshuang and the three of them were wearing face scarves, otherwise just the three of them with such stunning looks would have attracted many mad bees and butterflies along the way, and it would have been very troublesome to walk.

When passing by the clothing store, Hu Qian waved his hand and said, "Go and have a look."

Seeing that it was Hu Qian, the shopkeeper had a smile on his face, "Isn't this Mr. Hu? When Mr. Hu comes, the shop is full of splendor."

Hu Qian said: "There is no need to be too polite."

Then he went to the shop and sat down, and said to Xue Ningshuang and the three of them: "See if there is anything suitable.

Yingcai, the three of you have a look too. "

Yingcai, Sister Feng, and Hehua were all overjoyed, and they agreed, and waited for Xue Ningshuang to finish their selections before stepping up to choose one that they liked.

After that, Hu Qian bought gold and silver jewelry for the three of them. When he was about to go home, he suddenly saw many people gathered around the street, pointing and pointing, not knowing what they were doing.

Just standing at the back, I heard a man say: "50 taels, no less!"

Another person said: "Why don't you grab 50 taels, how much is it for me to buy an innocent girl, five taels of silver is enough!
You little concubine didn't know how many times, I'll give you ten taels at most, whether you like it or not! "

It turned out to be a concubine seller.

I saw the concubine kneeling on the ground, begging and looking at the man beside her.

"Master, this servant is willing to follow you even if he eats chaff and vegetables, please don't be so heartless."

The man said: "It's up to you if you want to eat bran swallowing vegetables, I don't have to."

Talking is still just bargaining with others.

After discussing for a while, it was finally sold for ten taels of silver.

The world is like this, and Hu Qian is used to it, when he was about to leave, he saw Xue Ningshuang and the three of them all had serious expressions.

Sullen along the way, stay home.

Hu Qian said: "What's the matter?"

Xue Ningshuang and the three of them didn't open their mouths. Looking at the clothes and jewelry they bought, they burst into tears.

"Msanggong, I was too dissatisfied before as a concubine."

"Sir, my concubine will definitely serve you well, please don't abandon me."

Although Chu Chu didn't speak, she had the same look on her face.

Hu Qian hugged the three of them in his arms, and said with a smile: "How can you be willing, Mr. Xiang, don't think about it."

While talking, Xiaohuan suddenly walked into the courtyard, "Master, the Shen family's master and old lady have arrived."

Hu Qian knew that Shen Yuzhen said to send Erzhu to Nanyang to pick up people last time, but he didn't expect to come here now.

So he hurriedly asked Yingcai to clean up the yard, arranged a clean wing room, and asked Hehua to notify Shen Yuzhen.

But Shen Yuzhen was still taking medicine at this time, so she urgently ordered Xiaohuan to tell Hu Qian.

Although it was a bit impolite, she didn't care much about it in order to have a baby.

After a while, Hu Qian greeted them outside the door, when Shen Sanshi and his wife just arrived, Hu Qian hurried forward to help them.

Shen Sanshi said: "I have a worthy son-in-law."

When the two got out of the car, Shen Sanshi looked around and said strangely, "Why don't you see Yuzhen?"

Hu Qian said: "She is taking medicine in the room, so it is inconvenient to come out."

I thought that Shen Sanshi and Yang Shi might blame her, but when Yang Shi heard this, she suddenly asked, "What do you mean? Is Yuzhen sick?"

Hu Qian explained a little bit.

Unexpectedly, Yang became even more excited, "So the root cause of the disease has been found? Can it be cured?"

Hu Qian said: "Now this medicine has been used continuously for a month, and it should be cured."

Yang's brows beamed with joy, "So, Yuzhen will be pregnant soon? I'm going to be a grandmother."

Shen Sanshi was also very excited.

Although Hu Qian's attitude towards Shen Yuzhen has always been firm, but the world is impermanent, if a concubine gives birth to a son for him in the future, then Shen Yuzhen's status may not be preserved.

Ever since Shen Yuzhen married Hu Qian, everyone in Nanyang knew that Shen Sanshi was the in-law of Jinling Tongzhi.

In addition, Shen Lian is Jin Yiwei, and Hu Qian is the county magistrate in Guobei County. No matter where Shen Sanshi goes, others will give him three points, even the Nanyang county magistrate is afraid of him.

With such a relationship, why would Shen Sanshi's business be bad.

However, after experiencing what happened to Shen Lian, Shen Sanshi finally knew how to act in a low-key and cautious manner, so as not to cause trouble for Shen Lian or Hu Qian.

Two or three years later, the Shen family's business grew bigger and bigger, and finally Shen Sanshi himself got tired of it, no matter how much money he earned, he didn't even have a grandson.

After that, the desire to make money gradually faded, and the business was basically handed over to the tribe.

Everyone knew his background, and no one dared to lie to him.

Talking all the way to the backyard, Hu Qian and Shen Sanshi went to the main hall, and Yang was led by the lotus to Shen Yuzhen's room.

Seeing Xiaohuan, she was so excited that she almost shed tears.

Mrs. Yang took her hand, "I have worked hard to serve you all these years." He casually rewarded her with a green jade hairpin.

Xiaohuan knelt down and kowtowed, "Miss and Young Master treat the slaves as if they were their own family members, there is nothing wrong with it."

Seeing Shen Yuzhen's ruddy complexion, Mrs. Yang felt relieved a little, and said, "Xiaohuan, you go out first, I'll clean it up here."

Seeing that Shen Yuzhen also nodded, Xiaohuan left slowly.

The mother and daughter reunited after a long absence, so naturally they have endless things to say.

It wasn't until evening that Shen Yuzhen was dressed and her hair was combed before the mother and daughter came out holding hands.

Hu Qian had asked Yanchun to prepare the food and drinks, and there were only Shen Sanshi, Yang Shi, and Shen Yuzhen in the main hall.

No matter how nice Hu Qian is to the other concubines, they are not eligible to attend this occasion.

However, Xue Ningshuang and the others didn't think too much about it. Compared with what they saw on the street today, how could they be dissatisfied.

On the second day, Hu Qian went to the county government office Dianmao early, and Shen Yuzhen, Xiaohuan and Hu Jiu took Shen Sanshi and his wife to play in the city.

At noon, before Hu Qian left the county office, Hu Jiu ran over suddenly, saying that something happened to Shen Yuzhen and the other three.

Hu Qian's heart skipped a beat, he asked the location, and before he had time to get in the carriage, he jumped out.

When they arrived at the place, they saw Shen Yuzhen, Shen Sanshi and Yang Shi surrounded by a group of people.

"Why didn't you kill him? My third brother was fine, but when you called him, he died."

"Don't let them go, you will lose money!"

"If you don't have 1000 taels of silver, don't even think about leaving!"

Some of them wanted to reach out to grab Shen Yuzhen, but Shen Sanshi stopped him.

Hu Qian was so angry that he leaped into the middle, instantly clamped the man's wrist, and pinched him lightly, causing him to kneel on the ground.

"I'm Hu Qian, the magistrate of this county! Tell me anything!"
