Husband-in-Law: Reborn Peasant Girl Busy Farming

Chapter 241

The man hugged Jingshan, who was sitting in the chair.

The remaining three people said nothing, with different expressions.

Xue Lince probably understood that this person should be the regent's subordinate, and sighed helplessly in his heart.

Shen Zizheng didn't know why, but he didn't have much reaction.

Bai Changlin, an old fox, looked at Jing Shan with an enigmatic smile.

"Send it back to the prince. After all, he was trained through hard work. Don't beat him to death." Jing Shan waved his hands in disgust, and the man who was standing at the door just now took the person away.

"Master Hou is really..." Bai Changlin smiled and teased Jingshan, "There are endless bees and butterflies flocking to you."

Xue Lince was drinking water at the moment, and when he heard a popping sound, he spat it out.

"Senior brother," Shen Zizheng sat aside with him, took out his handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to Xue Lince, "when you say this, can you look at me when I don't drink water?"

The atmosphere in the room relaxed a bit.

"There are no outsiders now. Senior brother, can you help me clarify my doubts? I've been curious all morning." Xue Lince said helplessly.

"Hey, why are you so impatient?" Bai Changlin smiled, "It's not too late to wait for the pot to come."

After finishing talking, I saw the shopkeeper and several waiters coming to serve the food.

"My boss, today I brought some sweet oranges from the south. I'll bring some for you to try." The waiter from the shop brought two plates and put them on the table. "There are a few more baskets in the kitchen. We'll leave later. Have someone install it for you when the time comes.”

"It's a good relationship." Bai Changlin looked at Xue Lince, "You, the shopkeeper, are very obedient."

"Yes, it seems to be from the Wang family," Xue Lince recalled. It seemed that Tang Luoyu hired this shopkeeper from the Wang family or asked Wang Jue directly. He was not sure. "You have to ask Xiao Yu about this. I don't know. clear."

"What the boss said is that I used to belong to the Wang family, but now I work for our girl." The shopkeeper directed the waiter to serve the dishes while praising Tang Luoyu to everyone, "When it comes to doing business, our girl is like this."

He gave everyone a thumbs up.

After the shopkeeper and all the waiters had retreated, Xue Lince asked seriously.

"Senior brother, so today..."

Before Bai Changlin could speak, he heard Jing Shan, who was sitting in the front seat, speaking unhurriedly.

"Is the Minister of Dali Temple investigating the case of selling someone last year?"

Bai Changlin said nothing and nodded slightly.

Xue Lince was stunned as he listened.

Selling people for a little while...isn't that what they are called human traffickers in ancient times?

"There is actually something in the capital..." Xue Lince screamed in surprise, then covered his mouth and asked Jingshan frantically with his eyes.

He sighed and then nodded.

Xue Lince couldn't believe that people in big cities usually take better care of their children.

Therefore, more children are usually lost in counties or rural areas.

Unexpectedly, something like this would happen in the capital, at the feet of the emperor, which made Xue Lince a little frightened.

"It's not the children who are missing, but the girls around the age of hairpins." Bai Changlin sighed and put away the usual smile on his face, "The news is overwhelming, so it's normal that you don't know. .”

Naturally, Xue Lince didn't know. After all, how long had he just been in the capital?

It's just that at this time, a girl with hairpins can get married. Not to mention that her family is strict about such a girl, she also has a certain awareness and is not that easy to kidnap.

But what does this have to do with Bai Changlin going to the theater today?

"The girl I met today once saw a kidnapped girl." Bai Changlin saw Xue Lince's confusion and explained to him.

"So that's it..." Xue Lince couldn't help but sigh.

He could probably guess where these girls would be sold.

The more I think about it, the more disgusting I feel.

"Senior brother, if you need me for anything, just ask!" Xue Lince said angrily, "Even if I have no ability, I can still pay some money."

"That's not necessary." Bai Changlin had a teasing expression on his face, "The court will give me money to investigate the case. Junior brother, just get me more delicious food."

Xue Lince was a little bit dumbfounded. His senior brother was really...

At this time, the pot was also boiling, and Xue Lince stood up and served everyone the shrimp sliders.

This was also what he suggested. After all, except for people with allergies, who doesn’t like to eat shrimp slippers?

"Who did cousin have an appointment with today?" Xue Lince asked casually, thinking of what Jing Shan had said to his subordinates before.

Unexpectedly, it was just a casual question, but Jingshan didn't know what he thought of, and his ears turned red.

"Cousin, did you have an appointment with your cousin today?" Xue Lince only felt that he was guilty.

Jingshandu has been standing there for many years, but now it is still playing tricks.

According to the calculations of later generations, it has been many years since he became a great magician.

It doesn't seem right. Although he is not married, who knows if he is...

Xue Lince's expression was a little ferocious, and he forced himself to stop thinking.

"You kid, where did you learn to be so narrow-minded?" Jing Shan said, looking at Bai Changlin.

He seems to be annoyed that his children have been led astray by this person.

"The Marquis thinks that I am really unreasonable," Bai Changlin was not afraid, he raised his eyebrows and said, "I think I need to ask my master about this."

Mr. Zhao has a wealth of knowledge and talents all over the world, and his success rate is extremely high.

Just looking at the fact that he only taught Xue Lince for more than half a year and he was able to pass the Jinshi exam, it already speaks volumes about Mr. Zhao's talent.

But he himself did not become an official.

Could it be that he didn't want to...

No.

Mr. Zhao's mouth is as famous as his knowledge, and he himself knows that he is not official material.

"Mr. Zhao is really lucky to have you as his student." Jing Shan mocked.

Bai Changlin didn't give in. He smiled and said without getting angry at all: "That's natural, otherwise I wouldn't be able to match my beloved daughter to me."

Xue Lince was doing better. Under the bickering between the two bosses, Shen Zizheng, the new top scholar on the other side, was trembling.

I just want to shrink into a ball and never talk to him.

After the meal was finished, Xue Lince followed Bai Changlin back to his house to pick up people, and Jing Shan was about to go back by himself.

"You go to my house more often on weekdays. My mother misses you so much." Jing Shan said with some displeasure.

"Yes." Xue Lince was a little helpless, "I will definitely go there often."

"It's best if it's true." Jing Shan snorted and got on the carriage first.

After arriving at Bai's house, they exchanged a few words with Mrs. Zhao, and then Xue Lince and Tang Luoyu got into their carriage.

"How did you go out to watch the theater with Senior Brother Bai today?" Tang Luoyu said with a smile, "And where did you go to eat at noon?"

After Xue Lince heard this, he first sighed deeply, and then said: "Senior Brother Bai went over to look for clues. He wants to catch people and sell them."
