It's hard to be a stepmother, my disabled husband takes care of my child
Chapter 27 The pretty boy county magistrate is quite good looking
Old Man Fan looked at Su Man's actions and laughed again, saying,
"Girl, you didn't come here just to catch this bandit leader, did you?"
"Yeah, is there anything wrong with that? I'm really short of money, and he happens to be valuable, so I just came over directly." Su Man did not hide anything.
Old man Fan really likes Su Man's character. All the girls he has met are unable to lift or carry anything, but that's fine, after all, it's better for girls to be pampered.
But he doesn't like those girls who are timid and shy. He prefers girls who are open and generous like the one in front of him!
"Don't worry, girl. My apprentice is very rich. When he comes, I will ask him to give you a lot of money. Then you won't have to come out to earn money anymore."
"Okay, don't forget it when the time comes!" Su Man would not refuse. After all, who would refuse someone who gave them money!
"Don't worry! I will never forget it!"
Su Man nodded and signaled Old Man Fan to get into the carriage, as he had to leave.
But Old Man Fan refused directly.
"Forget it, forget it. I don't want to be with a bandit leader like that. I'd better sit outside with you."
Su Man shrugged and didn't force it.
Old Man Fan and Su Man sat side by side outside the carriage. She couldn't help but admire Su Man as she watched her drive the carriage skillfully.
This girl is indeed a capable person!
No, I have to wait and see how he gets along with this girl. If she is a good girl, I will let my eldest disciple marry her. Then his later years will not be boring.
Su Man didn't know that the old man next to her was already planning on her. She was now eager to go back home. She had promised to go back in two days at the latest. Now she would go back to the town to the yamen, and then go back to the village from the yamen. She should be able to reach the village in the evening.
Along the way, Old Man Fan kept chatting with Su Man. Su Man could handle it at first, but later she became too lazy to talk anymore because this old man would talk endlessly, he was definitely a chatterbox!
But the old man seemed to have not noticed anything different. He kept talking, and all he said was nonsense. He kept talking even if Su Man didn't respond.
By the time they got back to the town, it was already afternoon. It took a little longer than she expected because the old man got off the carriage to pick some herbs on the way.
He kept saying that these herbs could definitely be used to detoxify and treat medical conditions, so even if Su Man didn't want him to get off the car, there was nothing she could do.
As soon as he arrived in the town, the old man shouted that he was hungry and wanted to eat something first.
"How about you go down here and find something to eat. I'll go to the government office to do some work first, and then I'll pick you up when I return. How about that?"
"No! What if you lie to me? What if you leave after you've finished your work?"
Su Man's face darkened. "Then you will come with me to the government office. When the people in the government office see that we are bringing the person they want, they will definitely treat us with great respect and treat us as guests of honor. Are you still afraid of not having food to eat?"
When Old Man Fan heard this, he thought it made sense and agreed immediately.
"Alright, let's go quickly. I haven't eaten anything since last night, and I'm really hungry."
After hearing this, Su Man paused and then drove the carriage to the yamen.
In fact, she was a little hungry, but she couldn't take out the things in the space for no reason, otherwise she would not be able to explain it later.
Especially now, she is still unsure of the old man's identity, but he has no ill intentions, so it's okay for her to take him with her. At least she can take him back to detoxify Fu Xiu. After all, this old man is said to be a miracle doctor, and there is a faint smell of medicine on his body, so his medical skills should be pretty good.
When they arrived at the gate of the yamen, soldiers and officers came up immediately.
"What are you doing? Who are you? This is the government office, you can't just come here casually. If you don't have anything to do, leave quickly."
A bailiff guarding the door came over and chased them away.
Although the voice was a bit loud, the tone was still acceptable. At least it was not a very fierce tone, but the kind of tone that told people not to make trouble here in a proper manner.
Su Man said to the yamen runner,
"I'm here to give something to your masters, the people on your list."
As she spoke, she lifted the curtain on the carriage, revealing the people inside.
Moreover, she had put a thin patch under her tongue just now, so her voice really sounded like that of a young man.
At this time, Su Man asked Old Man Fan to cover his face with a piece of cloth. After all, the old man would stay in her house for a while. What if he was recognized because of this old man?
Although being recognized is not a problem, it will cause trouble. She doesn't want to get into trouble for the time being and just wants to live a peaceful life.
The bailiff didn't take it seriously at first, until he saw the people in Su Man's carriage, and then his eyes widened in shock.
"Is this... Is this the King Tiger from Langhu Mountain?"
"Yes, so now can you take me to see your adults?"
The bailiff nodded quickly, but soon shook his head.
"Wait for me here for a moment. I'll go call our parents out!"
The bailiffs hurried into the yamen, while Su Man waited calmly.
Soon, the yamen runner who had just entered came out with a few people, but they all looked young people.
Su Man narrowed her eyes. The county magistrate of this yamen was actually a young gigolo?
This matter did surprise Su Man to some extent, but she did not show it. The world is so big and there are many capable people.
Besides, in this world and this era, as long as you have connections, you can get a position in government. It’s not a bad idea for a young county magistrate to come out and do the job, as long as the money is there.
However, this county magistrate looks quite good. He can be seen at first glance as the son of a wealthy family who comes out to experience life.
"Are you the one who brought the bandit leader from Langhu Mountain? Where is he now?" Wei Yan asked hurriedly, his face looking extremely anxious.
Su Man directly lifted the curtain to let people see, and Wei Yan was about to climb onto the carriage to see, but a man who looked like a yamen runner beside him quickly stopped him.
"Master, don't worry, I'll just go up and take a look."
Wei Yan was a little anxious, "Hurry up."
The bailiff went straight up and got onto the carriage with just his hands. No matter how you look at it, this man had pretty good skills.
Su Man raised her eyebrows but said nothing. She was really curious about why the county magistrate was so concerned about the bandit leader.
The bailiff went in to take a look, then came out and nodded to Wei Yan.
"Master, it's him."
Wei Yan was overjoyed, "Okay, okay, bring him in quickly! I'll kill him right after I get some information from him!"
"Yes!" The bailiff responded and was about to drag the man out immediately, but was stopped by Su Man.
"My Lord, this isn't right. Is there something else you haven't done?"
She looked at the county magistrate with a forced smile. Old man Fan next to her also knew what was going on, so he immediately chimed in.
"That's right! You want to take the person away before you get the reward. Isn't that wrong?"
When Wei Yan heard what the two said, he realized that he was too anxious and even forgot about this matter.
There was no other way. His father had clearly not allowed him to use his family connections to catch the bandit leader. He had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure and get a bounty. He would never let his family laugh at him.
"It's my fault. Come, take the prisoner to jail. Young man and old man, follow me. I promise I won't reduce your reward."
As he spoke, he made a gesture of invitation, indicating that Su Man and the other person could follow him in.
Su Man walked in front without any hesitation, and Old Man Fan followed beside Su Man.
Wei Yan finally calmed down at this time, and his usual rationality returned.
He looked at Su Man and Old Man Fan's backs with great curiosity.
The young boy looked to be about eighteen or nineteen years old. Although the old man's face could not be seen clearly, he looked to be no less than fifty years old. So the combination of the old and the young was quite curious.
At this time, the yamen runner who had just gone to the carriage to check on Wang Lao Hu also came to Wei Yan and asked in a low voice,
"Master, is there any problem with this?"
"Don't worry about it. Anyway, as long as we catch him, we can shut my father up. He might just be looking for money. Go get the banknotes and have someone prepare a banquet."
The bailiff nodded and left quickly.
Wei Yan came to Su Man and the others and said with a smile,
"Why don't you two come with me inside and have a quick meal? I have some questions I want to ask you two."
Su Man glanced at Old Man Fan, who immediately covered his stomach.
Su Man resisted the urge to roll her eyes and nodded to Wei Yan.
"Since you have invited me so kindly, I can't refuse." The main reason is that she has not received the money yet, so she can't leave even if she wants to! It's better to just follow the county magistrate's words and save face.
Wei Yan was indeed very satisfied with Su Man's words.
"Okay, okay, then follow me, little brother."
He took Su Man and the other person directly to the back hall, and immediately a servant came over to pour tea.
Old man Fan had been wanting to drink something hot for a long time, so when he saw the hot tea, he forgot about the black cloth on his face and just lifted it up and started drinking.
It was too late for Su Man to stop him, but Wei Yan felt that Old Man Fan looked familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before.
But this feeling only flashed by. He had met so many people, so it was normal for this person to have similarities.
"I am the county magistrate of this government office. My name is Wei Yan. I wonder what the names of this young man and old man are?"
Old Man Fan took a sip of hot tea and waved his hand nonchalantly.
"Just call me old man. I don't like telling people my name."
