Chapter 748: Cover your ears and steal the bell

Bai Yunxi looked at the county magistrate in front of her and twitched her lips. Although this man was asking her, his tone was cold and his eyes were cold, with a hint of warning, which made people very uncomfortable.

"The county magistrate has overthought it. The woman just thought that this ambush was too coincidental, and it happened to coincide with the old lady's birthday. I heard Brother Yu said that he had been living in the mansion for the first few days, waiting to help the old lady. It was his birthday. But suddenly he received news that there was something wrong with the birthday gift he prepared for the old lady, so he returned to the other courtyard to check. "

Every time Bai Yunxi said something, Magistrate Xie's face became uglier.

"It is simply unforgivable for someone to take advantage of an old lady's birthday to make a fuss and harm people's lives. With your status in the county, my lord, many people must be curious about what kind of thieves dare to be so bold and persecute the eldest son of the Xie family. In the future, Head of the family?"

 She was usually such a proud person, but the idea of ​​treating her as a mother made her feel very uncomfortable.

Hearing the sarcasm in Bai Yunxi's tone, Magistrate Xie suddenly clenched his fists and looked at her with sharp eyes that would have paralyzed an ordinary person.

 After saying that, without waiting for Magistrate Xie to speak, he turned his head to look at Baiyun River and knelt on the ground with a plop, his forehead touching the ground.

"Mrs. Bai, stay here. Since you are Brother Yu's savior, no matter how busy the Xie family is, they will not neglect their guests. It just so happens that Xie can fulfill his duties as a landlord."

With that said, before Magistrate Xie could speak, Bai Yunxi turned around and left.

 Such a person is destined to achieve little in his life.

Hearing this man’s polite words, Bai Yunxi waved his hand and refused without thinking.

"There is no need to express gratitude. As long as Brother Yu is well, I will be relieved. If he really wants to thank me, he can come to me in person to say thank you after he recovers. I have known Brother Yu for several years, and he has In my heart, I am always just a child." Listening to Bai Yunxi's tone, Magistrate Xie pursed his lips and frowned. He was not stupid, how could he not hear Bai Yunxi's dissatisfaction? People looked down on the couple, and they didn't take him as the county magistrate in their eyes.

Looking at the face of the county magistrate, who was darkening, he was obviously holding back anger in his heart, but he was trying his best to suppress it, but so what, he was lax in running the family, causing trouble and damaging his reputation on a day like this, didn't he ask for it?

Being suddenly knelt down and worshiped by someone, Bai Yunxi was startled and took a step back.

“As for who Brother Yu has offended and whether he was implicated, I believe Mr. Xie will be able to get to the bottom of it, catch the real culprit, and seek justice for your eldest son.”

 As for any conflicts within their family, it is not something she can control or interfere with. She just cared about a poor child from the perspective of a friend. As for the magistrate Xie in front of her, no matter how narrow-minded she was, he would not embarrass her as a woman.

When shopkeeper Jiang saw Magistrate Xie, he immediately bowed and saluted.

As for Magistrate Xie’s invitation, Bai Yunxi shook his head and refused.

"Thank you for your kindness, sir. There are many things going on in the house, so I won't bother you. Besides, I like a quiet person, and I am not used to an environment that is too noisy. As long as Brother Yu is recovering from his injuries, I will wait for news of his recovery. "

She came to the county and stayed at Nanshan Inn several times, and she was familiar with the shopkeeper. But today she found out that Nanshan Inn turned out to be Xie Yu's property. To be precise, Nanshan Inn is the property left to him by Xie Yu's mother.

No matter what County Magistrate Xie thinks, it has nothing to do with her. Anyway, she only knows Xie Yu. She feels pity for the boy's plight and can only say a few words for him.

  Her own pressure had no effect on her at all. Magistrate Xie was shocked by her courage, and was also angry that Bai Yunxi had no respect for him, the leader of the county, and was a thorn in his side.

Magistrate Xie snorted coldly in his heart as Bai Yunxi explained to her, but he was very eloquent and spoke in a high-sounding way. What does a woman know about the responsibilities of the government?

I really don’t know what to say to him.

On the way here, he had already heard from the medicine boy that Mrs. Bai had rescued their husband and sent him to the hospital. He had no way to repay this life-saving grace, he could only kowtow to express his gratitude.

 One hundred and seventy-eight. Seventy-five. Two hundred and fifty-five. Two hundred and one

The Baiyun River turned around and rushed to thank the county magistrate for his blessing.

"Thank you Madam Bai for saving your life. I will kowtow to you on behalf of Mr. Da Lang."

Now that someone Xie Yu trusted has arrived, she doesn't have to stay and chat with the Xie family. She's exhausted.

Just as he was about to say something, several people rushed in from the door of the medical clinic. The leader was shopkeeper Jiang, and behind him were two teenagers dressed as waiters.

“Greetings, sir, I just got the news that the elder man is injured, and the younger one came here specially to visit.”

Hearing Magistrate Xie’s disdainful voice, Baiyunxi was speechless. Such a headstrong person, no wonder he could sit through the magistrate without moving.

"Shopkeeper Jiang is very polite. Now that we have met him, he will definitely not stand idly by. It can also be said that it is fate. Fortunately, your elder husband is not in danger. He will recover as long as you take care of him carefully for a while."

 “Thank you sir for being busy today, I won’t interrupt you and take my leave.”

 Shopkeeper Jiang’s only master is Xie Yu.

And it has nothing to do with the Xie family. You can tell just by looking at Shopkeeper Jiang’s attitude towards Magistrate Xie.

“This matter has been decided by the county. Brother Yu, thank you for your help today. When Brother Yu is settled, the county will bring my wife to visit to express my gratitude to Mrs. Bai for saving her life.”

"Xie County Magistrate is the father-in-law of the common people. Regardless of the fact that Xie Yu is your son, he is also one of the common people. Those audacious disciples dare to do such bad things under the jurisdiction of Lord Xie. The government will arrest them The thieves are naturally responsible, and it is also the government's responsibility to protect the people."

 couldn't help but complain, isn't it better to have the ability to catch the real culprit and impress her son than to pretend to be a fool in front of her?

Think about the pitiful look in Xie Yu’s eyes just now. He was obviously in his frail years, but there was an unconcealable helplessness and hesitation in his eyes.

 So, no matter how ugly Magistrate Xie's face was, she still couldn't help but say a few things that should be said and shouldn't be said.

Bai Yunxi raised his hand and stroked his forehead, shook the corners of his mouth speechlessly, turned his head, and rolled his eyes elsewhere.

"Mr. Xie, maybe I have said too much, but it is true that Brother Yu almost died. The thieves hiding behind the scenes seriously injured Xie Yu. They are rampant and provocative enough. If the real culprit is not uncovered for a day, the perpetrators will pay the price. It will only happen. Indulging the other party's arrogance and provoking Mr. Xie's official authority... After all, interceptions and killings that occur within your jurisdiction are indeed not glorious."

Wenyou had been leaning at the door. When she saw Baiyun Xi coming out, she immediately followed.

As soon as he took a few steps, Zhang Yiren was stopped by the woman beside him, "Madam Bai, my Yiren has invited me."
