Chapter 100 1 bad news, 2 good news
"Mengli, is it really okay to harm your son like this..."
On the way back, Lin Xi suddenly felt a rare surge of paternal love and shed a tear of sympathy and sorrow for his eldest son.
Gao Mengli waved her hand and gave him a reassuring look, "Don't worry! That child has been eating 'Compendium of Materia Medica' since he was little. He's never been exposed to science or hard labor. He's in great shape and won't get hurt!"
Commonly known as the "newbie protection period," where buffs are fully stacked!
Unlike children in later generations, who can easily fall and suffer dislocations and fractures, these children were nowhere to be found.
Lin Xi's eyes lit up slightly upon hearing this.
That makes so much sense! He couldn't help but nod repeatedly.
Given how cruelly the two of them treated Da Niu in the past, Da Niu was still able to live a good life.
Those wild vegetables played a crucial role! Their physical fitness was undoubtedly excellent!
As Lin Xi thought about it, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly!
What fatherly love? It's all gone to hell right now!
The two got rid of the proud little pony and went home in high spirits!
Meanwhile, Dou Weiyi, who was chasing after "commercial taxes," returned to the government office with a dark expression.
I always feel like there's a breath stuck in my throat that I can't exhale or swallow, and I sit in my chair feeling sullen!
At this moment, Qin Shen walked leisurely into the county government office and swaggered to sit down next to Dou Weiyi.
Holding the teacup on the table, I took a sip with a pleasant feeling.
Glancing at the disgruntled Dou Weiyi, he was in a great mood and arranged for hundreds of little people to set up a stage in his mind, singing, dancing, playing music and jumping around!
In a good mood, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up: "Dou Weiyi, two pieces of good news and one piece of bad news!"
Dou Weiyi glared at him irritably, "Stop beating around the bush, tell me the bad news first, I want to see how bad it can get."
Could it be worse than him losing 350 coins for nothing?
Qin Shen put down her teacup. "The bad news is that an official document just arrived from the prefectural city today, conveying a message."
Recently, notorious flower thieves, nicknamed "The Infertile Flying Cockroach," have appeared in various places. The prefect has ordered a city-wide alert and a vigorous manhunt.
Dou Weiyi frowned and turned slightly to the side. "Huh? What's the name of this thing?"
A cockroach that will die without offspring? What kind of weird name is that? It sounds dirty, smelly, and bizarre.
Qin Shengsheng rolled her eyes at Dou Weiyi, "This thing is called Zhang Lang."
Upon hearing this, Dou Wei asked, "Do I need to repeat myself?" He knew it was a cockroach.
However, this job is lucrative.
He immediately wilted like a frostbitten eggplant, losing most of his interest.
However, as local officials, they cannot simply sit idly by.
She glanced at Qin Shen Shen and asked listlessly, "So, what's the good news?!"
Qin Shen smiled wryly, "The prefect's official document says that there is a reward of 100 taels of silver for capturing Zhang Lang!"
Upon hearing this, Dou Wei's eyes widened instantly, and her voice cracked with excitement, "Duo... Duo Shao?! 100 taels!"
He suddenly sprang up from his chair, his listless spirit vanished as the 100-tael gust of wind blew him away.
Dou Weiyi excitedly gripped and shook Qin Shensheng's shoulders, spittle flying from his mouth, his voice booming, "100 taels, 100 taels!! And what's the next, the next piece of good news!?"
Qin disgustedly pushed his hands away, "Stay away from me, your partition number hit my face."
Dou Weiyi smiled awkwardly, took a step back, and wiped her mouth with her sleeve.
"Hehe, I'm so excited, so excited! Keep going, what other good news is there?"
Qin Shen rolled her eyes and straightened her clothes. "Tang Guangjun and Wen Chou from the neighboring county, for some reason, were beaten black and blue last night after being stuffed with sacks in their sleep."
Dou Weiyi was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter, laughing so hard that tears almost came out. "Hahahaha, Tang Guangjun and Wen Chou? They've finally met their match?!"
No, I want to go to the next county!
"Nguyen Dan, Nguyen Dan, come with me to the next county!"
Seeing his parents, Qin Shen excitedly ran out, not forgetting to call Ruan Dan to go to the next county to see the "funny".
Qin withdrew her disdainful gaze, her brows furrowed, and her thoughts returned to the case of the flower thief.
"The cockroach that flies away without offspring is indiscriminate in its choice of flowers."
Whether plump or thin, tall or short, fat or ugly, there's no one he doesn't like.
This makes defense quite difficult... We need to come up with a comprehensive plan.
He paced back and forth inside the county government office, his mind constantly in thought.
Just then, Bucktooth Jade ran in, shoving her hand in front of Qin Shen Shen, "Qin Shen Shen! Give me money, I want to buy tofu!"
She didn't want to keep asking their boss for money, but Dou Weiyi only made them work without paying them a penny, so they were really poor.
Qin Shen Shen's thoughts were pulled back from the case by the buck-toothed jade's interruption. She took out 20 coins from her pocket and handed them to the buck-toothed jade.
Just as he was about to speak, he was ruthlessly interrupted by Bucktooth Jade rolling her eyes.
"Shut up! I know that 10 coins can buy malt sugar for DouDou and 10 coins can buy tofu."
Bucktooth Yu took the money, humming a little tune as she was about to leave, when Qin Shen called out from behind, "Things haven't been peaceful lately. After you've bought what you need, hurry up and get on with your business. Don't wander around aimlessly again."
After all, that flower thief wasn't picky, even though his buck-toothed jade looked too "safe".
However, he couldn't help but add a worried note.
Without turning her head, Bucktooth Jade replied, "Okay!"
He disappeared as soon as he finished speaking.
When Baoya Yu ran to the west city, he saw that Li Doudou's tofu stall was packed with customers buying tofu.
Bucktooth Jade frowned, considering where to squeeze in.
Suddenly, I felt someone step on my foot.
Turning my head, I saw a man with peach blossom eyes and a pale, scholarly appearance, his face plastered with a smile that gave me goosebumps.
His eyes lingered on her from the neck down, practically glued to her. "Oh, young lady, I'm sorry, did I hurt you?"
But there was not a trace of apology in his tone; instead, it revealed an indescribable frivolity.
Bucktooth Jade glared at him angrily, "Don't you have eyes? You're stepping on people's feet!"
The man wasn't angry at all. He leaned forward, almost touching the buck-toothed jade, and said, "Young lady, don't be angry. I'll invite you for tea to apologize!"
After saying that, he raised his head, ready to give Bucktooth Jade what he thought was an incredibly cool and awesome smile.
But the moment I saw the buck-toothed jade's "appearance", I almost threw up my dinner from the night before.
His previously confident expression froze instantly, as if struck by lightning, and the smile on his lips cracked inch by inch.
At that moment, he admitted he had made a choice...
When the buck-toothed girl saw his appearance, she became even angrier. "What are you looking at? Do you think I'll like you just because you look like this?"
I've seen this kind of flirting technique plenty of times before.
"You think I wouldn't see through your little schemes? Drinking tea? You're drinking your mother's head!"
While cursing, Bucktooth Jade rolled up his sleeves, pretending to give him a few lumps.
