Chapter 358: This sinister cripple
Chapter 358 This sinister cripple
As soon as the sun rose, two strange faces appeared in front of the county government office in Luyan Port.
Hearing that he was here to find the new county magistrate, and he was from the Chang family, the guards didn't dare to neglect, and immediately led them to the side room to wait.
At this time, Lin Jinxiao was trying to exercise his muscles and bones in the backyard of the county government office. Seeing an officer come in to report that there was a visit from the Chang family, a haze immediately appeared on his stretched pretty face.
In addition to his mentor Chang Yanjue, Ji Huazhen and his wife, and their only son who died in the battle, the only Chang family members he knew were his mentor's younger brother's family.
Lin Jinxiao ordered the guards while packing up the things in the yard: "You go and entertain them, and I'll go after packing up."
Watching the guards leave after hearing the sound, Lin Jinxiao walked back to the living room slowly, his face was cloudy and cloudy, and he always looked thoughtful.
Although he has not been concerned about the affairs of the Chang family these years, he still heard a lot of rumors.
I heard that the mistress of the second room passed away two years ago, and then the second uncle Chang continued. According to Chang Yanning's biological mother's temperament, she will not be in contact with him in this life.
Now they took the initiative to come to the door, probably because of the intention of the second wife.
After washing his face, he changed into clean clothes. He glanced at the crutches lying beside him. He suddenly remembered what Chu Nanzhi had said on the day he took office. Then he set up the crutches and walked slowly to the front hall.
When I got to the hall, I saw an old man and a young man and a young man sitting by the tea table. The man was about fifty years old, while the woman looked delicate and must have been in her early twenties.
The young woman was accompanied by a personal envoy. Seeing Lin Jinxiao coming out on crutches, she carefully pulled the woman who was whispering with the middle-aged man.
Seeing this, the two stood up immediately, and the middle-aged man greeted Lin Jinxiao eagerly, helped Lin Jinxiao to sit down, and called affectionately: "Jinxiao, I haven't seen you for several years. I heard that you have been honored as the magistrate of this county." , should have come over to congratulate at the first time."
Before he finished speaking, the woman next to him couldn't help coughing lightly. The middle-aged man stopped talking immediately, turned his face and looked at the woman awkwardly, and then changed his tone into a lukewarm introduction. : "This is your second aunt, Wan Shi, Yan Ning's stepmother."
Lin Jinxiao pursed his lips and nodded to Wan Shi with a slight smile.
Wan Shi has long heard of the reputation of the number one talented person in Luyan Port, and when she saw her today, she really has an extraordinary bearing. No wonder the stepdaughter at home has guarded her body like a jade.
Glancing at the pair of crutches in his hand, Wan Shi couldn't help but sighed secretly: It's a pity that he is disabled.
Wen looked at Lin Jinxiao with a smile, Wan Shi bowed respectfully, sat back at the tea seat, and said softly: "Jinxiao, I heard from your teacher that your leg disease has healed, why is it still inconvenient?"
He still has to rely on a cane to move around in the county government office. This is not like the rumors of the Lin family that he is walking like flying now, and there is nothing wrong with him.
I don't know how the imperial court's employment regulations stipulated that a disabled person should be the head of the county.
Could it be because he is a disciple of Uncle and Elder Nie?
Lin Jinxiao looked at the second uncle of the Chang family unhurriedly, pretending to smile wryly and replied, "It's almost recovered. Last time I went to Haikang County, I suffered some twists and turns, and my leg injury recurred."
Speaking of this, he patted his injured left leg lightly, and said sadly: "I'm afraid this is the only way to go in this life."
"So serious?"
Second Uncle Chang stared in astonishment and regret.
He was actually unwilling to accept this marriage from the bottom of his heart. If his late wife and elder sister-in-law hadn't matched each other back then, and Yan Ning had already secretly agreed to it, he would never have agreed to this marriage, and ended up regretting the marriage.
Yesterday, I heard from members of the Lin clan that Lin Jinxiao had reconciled with that woman from the Chu family. I also heard that his leg injury was almost healed. Thinking that Yan Ning was still in her boudoir and could not withstand Wan's persuasion, she was willing to come and go This time.
Second Uncle Chang secretly gritted his teeth and thought for a while, then turned to Lin Jinxiao again, and said with concern: "Da Lang, you should ask the doctor to take a look. Don't be discouraged, you are still young."
"Hey, my wife is the best doctor, she is helpless, so I don't expect too much."
Lin Jinxiao sighed dejectedly.
"That lady of yours also knows some heresy things, so how can she cure any disease, maybe it's her who cured your leg."
Wanshi complained angrily.
"Miss Wan's words seem unreasonable. My wife even the old doctor Qian from the Hongwen Medical Center is vying to worship her as a teacher. Could it be that the old lady's medical skills are more exquisite than old doctor Qian?"
Lin Jinxiao sounded a little annoyed, but he didn't get angry because of his friendship with the Chang family.
Wan Shi originally wanted to slander the reputation of the woman from the Chu family, so that he would hate her even more, but she never thought that he had the intention of protecting her shortcomings, so she immediately shut up guilty.
Second Uncle Chang sensed something was wrong: Why did he still protect that woman so much after reconciling?
But for the sake of his daughter, he still forced a smile: "Dalang, don't be as knowledgeable as your aunt, no matter how good the doctors in Luyan Port are, they are always no match for the palace. I'd better go back and tell your teacher's wife, let me know." She sent someone to Jingling City to invite an imperial doctor from the palace to show you."
"Second Uncle's kindness, I appreciate it. The emperor is far away from this mountain. I'm afraid I can't wait so long."
Lin Jinxiao speculated that the couple must have come here because of Chang Yanning's affairs, and then said happily: "My lady taught me a way to recover, maybe it will get better with more time, at least not in the future. Someone needs to take care of her."
Second Uncle Chang felt a grudge immediately.
He heard that this nephew couldn't even get out of bed when his legs were seriously ill, and he had to be taken care of when he ate, drank and slopped.
My own daughter, who is golden in branches and jade leaves, really can't bear to make her suffer like this.
Moreover, this nephew is also very violent. He challenged the noble gentry of the county just after he took office, and he might be dismissed by the court one day. Then his daughter will have no peaceful life with him.
He began to hesitate, began to waver, and regretted listening to Wan's bewitching to come to the county government this time.
Wan Shi and Uncle Chang have different opinions.
She joined Chang's family, so she naturally hoped to support her own power. Chang Yanning wanted to marry him so much. If this could be achieved, the couple must be most grateful to her as a stepmother.
As for whether the son-in-law is lame or not, it doesn't matter. The water splashed by the married daughter is the couple who live their lives, and it doesn't matter to me.
She still had a smile on her face, and said to Lin Jinxiao gently: "Since we've already reconciled, Dalang's calling her a lady is probably inappropriate."
"It is true that they have reconciled."
Lin Jinxiao waved his hand calmly and quickly: "But it has nothing to do with my leg disease."
"Yes, yes, Dalang, your leg disease will recover sooner or later."
Second Uncle Chang lowered his head with thick eyebrows trembling slightly.
This little **** is wrong. Just now he gave up on himself and felt that there was no hope. Now he said that he hoped to recover, and he didn't know which sentence was true and which sentence was false.
It must be that he realized that he came here for his daughter's affairs, and wanted to deliberately deceive himself to gain trust so that he could marry his daughter to him.
This sinister intention is really hateful.
I would rather let my daughter die at home than marry this cripple.
Whether rich or not, my elder brother has become a prince and a tutor, so is it possible that his disciple can still be an emperor?
