Transmigrated into a corrupt female county magistrate, defied fate and changed her life in a deserte
Chapter 189 This is done beautifully
"Okay, your grandma misses you very much, go see her."
Mr. Liu glanced at Lu Ruoyu and said, "You go too!"
The backyard of Song Mansion.
Old Madam Liu looked outside from time to time, but only heard the servants' reports, but no one came.
She couldn't wait to stand up and said, "I'm afraid that old man is nagging too much. I'll go find my book."
I remember the last time we met was two years ago.
"Grandma, let me go over and call you sister!" Song Yunfu stood up.
"Who's looking for me?" Song Jinshu heard the voice as soon as he stepped into the backyard and asked with a smile.
Song Yunfu's eyes lit up, and she looked at Old Madam Liu and said happily, "Grandma, it's my sister who's here!"
"Sister!" When Song Jinshu appeared, Song Yunfu rushed over and hugged her and acted coquettishly.
Song Jinshu looked at her younger sister whom she hadn't seen for half a month. She had become more and more lovely and charming. In a few days she would be thirteen years old.
"Grandma!" Song Jinshu looked at Old Madam Liu in front of him with burning eyes. Grandma's hair was now gray and her skin was much rougher.
She felt very guilty, wondering why she didn't find an opportunity to rescue the person earlier.
Old Madam Liu's eyes curved, and she waved at her with a smile, walking quickly forward: "Shu'er, good child! I heard everything about you from Fu'er and Yue'er. You've worked hard."
This child must have had a hard time. She looks so thin. I'll make some ginseng soup for her later.
"You've lost weight! When grandma is around, she will definitely help you grow back."
Song Jinshu smiled awkwardly: "Grandma looks better when she's thin!"
"Nonsense! Your two aunts are great cooks, just ask them to cook a few more dishes tonight."
Wu and Yao responded with a smile.
Two pairs of eyes kept staring at Song Jinshu, and they couldn't get enough of looking at him.
At this moment, Song Jinshu was wearing a modified women's outfit and had her hair tied up in a high ponytail. If she didn't say anything, people would think she was some handsome young man.
At this time, Lu Ruoyu, who was following behind Song Jinshu, stood silently aside, waiting for them to finish their greetings.
Yao glanced at him and gently reminded Old Madam Liu, "Mother, there are still people here."
Upon hearing this, Old Lady Liu was willing to take her eyes off Song Jinshu. Seeing Lu Ruoyu standing obediently below her, her expression became more restrained.
She straightened her clothes and asked softly, "I'm sorry, but I wonder who this young man is...?"
Old Madam Liu looked at Song Jinshu, somewhat unsure of how to treat Lu Ruoyu.
"Madam, my surname is Lu, my name is Ruoyu, and I am the county magistrate of Jingyang County." Lu Ruoyu said frankly.
"So it's County Magistrate Lu. He doesn't look very old. I wonder if you can marry him?"
Song Jinshu opened her eyes wide. How could her grandmother be so harsh as to ask someone whether he was married as soon as they met?
Lu Ruoyu chuckled and shook her head: "No!"
"Okay, okay...it just so happens that my home..."
"Grandma! It's getting late. Are you hungry? I want to have dinner!"
Song Jinshu grabbed Madam Liu and successfully stopped her from talking.
When Mrs. Liu heard Song Jinshu say she was hungry, she could no longer sit still and immediately took her two daughters-in-law to the kitchen to prepare dinner.
And he strongly asked Lu Ruoyu to stay for dinner before going back.
Song Yunqing and the others naturally wouldn't just sit there and wait, so they all followed him to the kitchen.
Song Jinshu took Lu Ruoyu back to the front yard to talk to Old Man Liu.
Jingyang County has experienced a lot in the past year, and even a simple summary took an hour.
Old Master Liu and the two Liu brothers were still not satisfied after listening to the lecture, and were particularly interested in the cotton.
The two brothers of the Liu family couldn't wait and didn't even want to eat dinner, so they wanted to drag Lu Ruoyu to the clothing workshop to take a look.
Song Jinshu couldn't help but sigh that businessmen are very sensitive when it comes to making money.
With just a few words, they were able to draw inferences from one example and suggest making cotton hats, cotton shoes, etc.
Seeing his two sons being so unstable, Grandpa Liu kicked them and made them behave temporarily.
There was laughter at the dinner table.
Old Master Liu stood up, holding a wine glass, looked at Song Jinshu and said, "It's all thanks to Shu'er that we can be reunited here safely today."
"We should help each other from now on!"
Song Jinshu also stood up and toasted back, "We are all family, so let's not talk about our differences. Things will get better and better in the future."
While chatting, the meal ended and Lu Ruoyu left before nightfall.
In the study of the Song Mansion, the Liu family and Song Jinshu gathered together.
Everyone's expression was heavy. Old Master Liu frowned and spoke first, "We had no grudges against Liang Juncheng of Zheng'an Prefecture before. If he wants to harm us, I'm afraid he's only after money."
"When he pushed his brother-in-law out to take the blame, I felt something was amiss. I'm afraid he also played a significant role in our imprisonment."
Liu Zhile pounded the table angrily and cursed, "That beast is hiding in the shadows like a poisonous snake. I'm going to skin him alive."
Song Jinshu was silent for a moment. The surname of the Liang County Magistrate of Zheng'an Prefecture was Liang, and the surname of the County Magistrate of Shun'an Prefecture was also Liang. Could these two be from the same clan?
If so, does that mean that the governor of Shunan Prefecture, Liang County, was also involved?
But now she has no evidence and cannot convict him.
Ever since Grand Tutor Zhou came to deliver the imperial edict, stating that she would take over as the County Magistrate of Shun'an Prefecture, County Magistrate Liang had not responded at all. She was still worried that he was up to something bad.
Half a year had passed, and she hadn't seen him take action, so she thought he was facing reality calmly.
Unexpectedly, the Liu family started to have ideas.
"Grandpa, so how do you want to retaliate?"
She is not stupid. Mr. Liu told her this specifically to seek her opinion.
After all, if Liang Juncheng of Zheng'an Prefecture and Liang Junshou of Shun'an Prefecture were from the same clan, and Liang Junshou was his direct superior, it would be easy for him to plot against him.
Old Master Liu frowned, "But is the Liang Jun Shou in Shun'an Prefecture trying to harm you?"
He cares more about Song Jinshu's future than revenge.
Song Jinshu sighed: "It doesn't matter, he can't do anything to me."
Not to mention how he would embarrass her, as long as the emperor and General Huo did not fall, she could live in peace.
Besides, he has the emperor's spies around him. If Liang Junshou really dares to take action, he will be dead soon.
"How do you plan to deal with the Liang Juncheng of Zheng'an Prefecture?"
Liu Zhiyuan then informed Song Jinshu of their plan. Song Jinshu raised his eyebrows and said, "It's a good idea, but finding the right bandits is a bit difficult!"
Not to mention how vicious the bandits are, if you get involved with them, you will be skinned alive.
Liu Zhile waved his hand and said, "I have an idea. I used to go out a lot and got to know a group of people in the underworld. As long as I pay them enough money, they will help me with the work."
"And they are very good at disguise, so pretending to be bandits is no problem."
Song Jinshu looked at her second uncle with some surprise. She didn't expect that her second uncle had such a wide network of contacts.
Old Master Liu glanced at Liu Zhile. Even though he had been dissatisfied with his bad friends before, he was now helping the family a lot.
"Second brother, be careful and don't let anyone know it was us who did it. Also, I'll give you some more money."
After deciding to take revenge on Liang Juncheng, the Liu family renegotiated the process.
Song Jinshu occasionally interjected a few words to fill in the gaps, and the discussion was finally completed at three o'clock in the morning.
Everyone went back to their own room to sleep.
The next day.
After the Liu family learned that the Liu family was coming, Liu Jingmo brought Song Yunbing to pay a visit.
In name, Song Yunbing is the niece of the Liu family, and Old Madam Liu treats the married Song Yunbing very well.
She prepared all the gifts from the girls of the Song family. Song Yunbing was also a sensible and filial person. She took out the clothes she had embroidered herself and gave them to Old Lady Liu and her two aunts.
After Liu Jingmo arrived at the Song Mansion, he was invited to the reception room to meet Old Master Liu.
"Grandpa is well!" Liu Jingmo said respectfully.
Old Master Liu nodded, motioned him to sit down, and then said with a smile: "Before, due to family changes, I didn't attend your wedding with the second lady. This is my gift to you two, don't despise it."
The servants brought in a pair of very delicate inkstones. The outer walls of the inkstones were carved with exquisite mandarin duck patterns, which looked very festive.
Liu Jingmo fell in love with her at first sight.
"Thank you, Grandpa!"
The two Liu brothers chatted with Liu Jingmo for a while.
Liu Zhile jokingly said, "I heard that your family and Shu'er jointly opened a clothing workshop specializing in making cotton-padded clothes and quilts?"
Liu Jingmo's heart tightened, but he remained calm on the surface: "Yes, Second Uncle. If you are curious, you may as well come with me to take a look later."
The Liu family is a merchant family like them, although their roots in Jingyang County are not as deep as theirs.
But in terms of which family has a closer relationship with Song Jinshu, it must be the Liu family.
Ever since he learned yesterday that the Liu family was coming, he had been wondering whether he would give up the cotton business in the future.
Seeing that Liu Zhile was so interested, Liu Jingmo felt a little disappointed, but he was not discouraged!
He also has shares in Mahjong and Hot Spring Villa.
If he handed over the cotton business readily, he could win the favor of the Liu family, and Song Jinshu would also remember his kindness.
Liu Zhile didn't know that Liu Jingmo had planned to go to this extent. He was just curious about the cotton-padded clothes and quilts, which didn't mean that he wanted to take away other people's business.
Besides, that was his niece's business, how could he do such a thing?
When he looked at cotton in the past, he was just verifying whether it could be made into hats and shoes.
If possible, my niece's income will only go up to a higher level.
Here, Song Jinshu was handling official business in the county government office. When she heard that Liu Zhile and Liu Jingmo went to the clothing workshop together, she just smiled faintly and said nothing.
When Lu Ruoyu received the letter from Shun'an Prefecture, he immediately gave it to Song Jinshu.
Song Jinshu was stunned for a moment, then he opened the envelope himself and read the letter at a glance.
She was a little amused and helpless. Their guess was correct. Liang Juncheng of Zheng'an Prefecture and Liang Junshou of Shun'an Prefecture were indeed from the same clan.
However, the two are not relatives. The reason why the Liang County Magistrate sent a letter today was because the Liang County Magistrate of Zheng'an Prefecture asked him to suppress Song Jinshu.
The governor of Liang County was afraid that he would offend Song Jinshu because of this, so after receiving the letter from Zheng'an Prefecture, he immediately sent a message to Song Jinshu.
"Since the Liang County Magistrate is so open about his relationship with the County Magistrate of Zheng'an Prefecture, I'm afraid the two of them really are not colluding. This will make it easier for us to act." Song Jinshu murmured in a low voice.
Lu Ruoyu didn’t know about the Liu family’s affairs, so she asked, “But something happened in Shun’an Mansion?”
Song Jinshu handed the letter to Lu Ruoyu, and then briefly told him about the matter of the County Magistrate of Zheng'an Prefecture.
Lu Ruoyu's eyes darkened slightly and she clenched the letter in her hand. This matter might not be that simple.
"Don't act rashly, this matter is not over yet."
"Hmm?" Song Jinshu looked at Lu Ruoyu puzzledly.
Because the matter was of great importance, Lu Ruoyu was worried that Song Jinshu would not be able to guess it, so she broke the matter down into pieces.
"The Emperor personally sent people to investigate the Liu family's affairs. Logically speaking, if the Zheng'an Prefecture Magistrate was truly involved, there's no reason he couldn't be found out, unless someone higher up is protecting him."
"Hiss... Who could that person be?" Song Jinshu's heart trembled.
The Liu family is just a small business, how come they are involved in such a wide range of affairs?
If it really is that big shot, if the Liu family takes action, it will definitely attract the attention of the higher-ups.
Now that she is still young and fledgling, it is difficult for her to protect everyone.
Lu Ruoyu frowned slightly and said, "It must be related to the people in Kyoto. If we want to get rid of them completely, we have to endure for a while."
Song Jinshu remained silent. She felt really uncomfortable if she couldn't vent her anger.
"If we can't kill him, we can at least cripple him and keep his life!" Song Jinshu's eyes lit up, and he felt it was a good idea.
She looked at Lu Ruoyu expectantly, only to see him chuckle and nod: "Okay, as long as you keep some breath to identify the person behind this in the future."
After thinking for a while, Lu Ruoyu said again: "It is not convenient for you and the Liu family to take action at this time, let me do it."
"Ah? You come?" She looked at Lu Ruoyu suspiciously. With his small arms and legs, who could he beat?
"No, I'm afraid you'll go out and get killed."
"Head?" Lu Ruoyu was puzzled: "I will be fine, and he doesn't have the ability to take my head."
"That was not what I meant……"
"Then let me go!"
Song Jinshu: ...
Since you are so sure, then go ahead! At worst, she can just let Zhang Yi follow Lu Ruoyu.
Five days later, a rumor came in.
Unexpectedly, the county magistrate of Zheng'an Prefecture was murdered by a villain and became disabled for life. It was said that there was not a single good spot on his body and he could only be hung up by ginseng.
Mrs. Wu used this news to cheer up Old Madam Liu.
"Mom, you don't know that a friend of mine married into the Zheng'an Prefecture. She gave me more accurate information. It is said that the county magistrate has lost his penis, and his only son was revealed to be a bastard..."
Old Madam Liu squinted her eyes happily for a while, then widened them in shock.
"It's his fault! He killed people!"
Naturally, Old Master Liu and the others also knew the news about Liu Juncheng of Zheng'an Prefecture.
He was surprised that the second brother was so fast and so cruel!
Therefore, he quickly sent someone to call Liu Zhile back home. Along the way, Liu Zhile was confused for a long time.
He just asked his friends to cripple his legs, but he didn't expect that this man was so weak that he became paralyzed.
"Second brother, you did a great job!" Old Master Liu said with a smile as soon as he saw Liu Zhile.
Liu Zhile: ...
He received such compliments on his face that he buried the strange feeling in his heart and humbly accepted the compliments from Mr. Liu.
