You are simply a bunch of useless people. You haven't been able to find him for such a long time. If you keep watching him every day, you will probably kill him.

Magistrate Wu was very angry.

If you still can't find it after a long time, then you really can't find it.

County Magistrate Wu was in a rage when he heard the servant come in and said, "Master, the young master wants to see you."

"See me, there is no young master in this house, there is only a master in this house, no young master. Why tell him to do his job in the servants' room? Do you hear me? From now on, there will be no young master in this house, only me, the old master."

"Go down."

Nothing went well that day.

Taohua sold everything that could be sold in the mansion and sent away all the maids and servants. She would just buy a maid when she moved to a new place.

A month later, Taohua's house was finally sold, and she was very satisfied with the price.

Taohua took her child to Lincheng, a city next to the provincial capital. When they arrived at the gate of the provincial capital, they saw a woman standing next to the gate.

"Big sister, big sister, it's really big sister."

Taohua looked at her sister and said, "You have lost weight, Lihua. You have become so thin. Is it because your husband treats you badly? If so, I will not go to your place. Otherwise, if your husband doesn't like it, your life will be hard."

"Sister, what are you talking about? We are sisters, and my husband treats me very well. It's just my own fault. I was pregnant before, but I lost the baby. My health is not very good, and I haven't been able to eat much recently, and I haven't rested well. That's why I am getting thinner and thinner."

"When you see my husband, you'll know. He's actually a very good person. He has nothing to say about me, but he's not that good-looking. He's a bit dark, but I think he's still very manly."

Taohua took her son and followed Lihua to her home.

As soon as she saw the house, Taohua knew that her sister couldn't live here for long, so she had to go out and find a house.

The room was not big, with only three rooms in total, just enough for Taohua and her son to sleep.

As soon as I entered the house, I saw an honest man working as a tinsmith in the yard. He was not tall, but a bit sturdy, and very dark. Although he was not outstanding in appearance, he looked very honest and kind.

When the man saw the woman coming in, who was dressed very gorgeously, he knew that this woman must be his sister-in-law. He had heard his wife always talking about her eldest sister before.

The man walked over and said, "Big sister, you are here. This is the first time we meet. My name is Tie Niu. Lihua always praised you in front of me, saying that you are good in many ways and that you are the most beautiful among the three sisters. After seeing you today, I can see that you are indeed worthy of your reputation."

Taohua noticed that the man actually had a limp and walked with a limp.

Lihua came out and saw her elder sister staring at Tieniu's leg. She knew what she was thinking, "Sister, Tieniu's leg was broken when he was a child. He didn't have money to see a doctor for treatment, so he became like this now. But it doesn't affect how good he is to me, nor does it affect his ability to support this family, sister."

"Don't worry, as long as you feel good, it's fine. After all, it's the two of you living together. What you feel is good is more important than anything else."

Lihua said with tears in her eyes, "Big sister."

"Okay, don't be sad anymore. I plan to settle down in Lincheng so that we two sisters can be taken care of. Please help me keep an eye out for a small house with a yard that is big enough for the two of us to live in. I don't ask for anything else, you know."

"Don't worry, I will arrange it for you, big sister."

After the three of them finished their dinner in the evening, Taohua pulled Lihua aside to chat.

"Lihua, does Tieniu make a living by forging iron? Can he earn a lot of money in a month?"

"Sister, don't underestimate Tie Niu's weak legs. He is very strong. He has nothing but a lot of strength. And he is a very good blacksmith. People around here know it. Our business is not bad. Although we don't make much money, we can still make a living."

Hearing you say that, I feel relieved.

"Then how did you two meet?"

Lihua said embarrassedly, "Since you asked me to leave and not stay in my hometown, I wanted to go to the county town to find some work. But I thought that people in the village would also go to the county town. Although not many people go, I still meet them more or less. So I went to the prefectural city, and when I got there, I was cheated again."

Lihua felt very aggrieved when she thought about what happened before.

"After I was cheated, I had no food to eat and wandered around the streets. I was bullied by someone. Later, it was Da Niu who saved me. At first, she didn't recognize me and just gave me some money and told me to take good care of myself."

"It was only when I said I was Lihua that he recognized me. He also told me that my mother was looking for me everywhere and told me not to stay in the city but go somewhere else. Because some people in the village often come to the city to deliver goods and are afraid of seeing me. I was caught again."

"He asked me to come to Lincheng, saying that the public security in Lincheng was very good and the officials here were very honest. He also gave me fifty taels of silver when I left. Later, I met Tieniu. He felt sorry for me as a woman and often took care of me. After coming and going for a few times, we got married."

"Don't worry, big sister. I'm fine. Tie Niu treats me very well, and there's no mother-in-law to bully me. I'm the king."

After Lihua finished speaking, she couldn't help but laugh.

When Taohua heard the name Daniu, she was a little dazed for a moment.

"Sister, if you had married Brother Daniu, I wonder if you would have lived a better life. We are from the same village. Brother Daniu is kind and honest. I am not the kind of person who would torture her daughter-in-law. You don't know how much the girls in our village envy Lady. She is living a really good life now."

"At their Wang family, I just cook and take care of the kids, nothing else. And whoever goes back to my parents' home, I give them money, and my aunt doesn't say a word. She even gives them some chores to do. Now their family is living a good life."

"Her sisters relied on her connections and all married well."

Lihua looked very envious.

"Lihua, your brother Danniu and I are not destined to be together. We all have families and children. Sometimes, when you miss someone, you just miss them. They will never come back."

"It's normal to be unable to get the love you want, and I just wanted to find a rich family to live a good life. I was really tired of being poor. You know how our family was. We were really too poor, and our mother didn't even treat us as human beings. She sold us like goods. I just wanted to sell myself for a good price."

"Sometimes I wonder if things would have been different if I had married a great guy, but there is no if and no regret medicine."
