Chapter 125 Eating Meat

Li Yujiao added: "Actually, it doesn't matter whether you eat sweet or salty tofu pudding. What matters is who makes it. For example, the one I make is delicious. You can try it..."

Before Li Yujiao finished speaking, the two sisters grabbed the bowl of salty food and started eating.

She couldn't help but shook her head.

Then turn around and eat the bowl of sweet.

Tofu pudding should of course be eaten sweet!

……

Jing Qishan has found the old man who reported the case in Xingyi Village.

The old man kept crying and cursing: "My only hope in this life is this cow. If the cow is gone, what's the point of living? I might as well fight them."

Jing Qishan asked: "Then do you know where they hid the cattle?"

The old man touched his chest and said, "Either he's hiding in the back hills, or he's hiding at home. They won't let me look for him."

"Uncle, please lead the way, I will find it for you."

The old man looked at Jing Qishan in surprise, and then said, "Wu Xingan used to be from our village. He didn't dare to offend that gang. You... do you really want to stand up for that villain?"

Jing Qishan couldn't help but ask: "Then why did you come to the government office to report a case? Don't you just want us to find a cow for you?"

"I don't actually have any hope..."

"Stop talking nonsense and lead the way!"

After he finishes this case, he has to go to the dock to pick up his wife.

Jing Qishan followed the old man to the back mountain.

There is a dilapidated pavilion on the back mountain, where several men in their twenties and thirties are eating meat around a big pot.

A gust of wind blew over, bringing with it the aroma of beef!

The old man's legs went weak and he knelt down: "They, they ate my cow, ate it, what should I do? My cow, that's my life!"

When the men saw the old man coming, they came over with a smile and said, "Old Ding, why are you here again? We said we haven't seen your cows before."

Jing Qishan stood in front of the old man and slowly took out the token from his waist: "The government is investigating the case, you answer truthfully!"

"Hey, who are you trying to scare?" A few of the lazy guys, one of whom was even arrogantly said: "We have already eaten the beef, what can you do to me?"

Jing Qishan said coldly: "Since you have admitted that you bullied others and occupied the property of fellow villagers, you have violated the law. Now please follow me back to the government office!"

The troublemaker laughed and said, "Oh, who do you think you are? Just let us go back, and we'll go back? Wu Xing'an from your government office is my cousin. Didn't you ask him about the case?"

Jing Qishan smiled, "Really? Then go back to the government office and hope he can protect you!"

As soon as the words fell, the man made his move, and in an instant, several men fell down.

These men didn't see clearly how Jing Qishan made his move. They just felt a figure flash by, and then they fell down. Their whole bodies ached and they were unable to resist at all.

Jing Qishan ordered Ren An to tie them up, and then dragged them behind him like grasshoppers.

The old man hurried to follow.

The old man is still crying.

Now that the cow was gone, he lost all desire to live and just followed those people stupidly.

……

evening.

The banquet hosted by the county magistrate's wife finally ended, and Li Yujiao followed everyone off the boat.

Each family sent someone to pick up their guests, some in horse-drawn carriages and some in sedan chairs.

Li Yujiao looked around but didn't see Jing Qishan.

It would have been better if he hadn't come, otherwise these people would have seen her riding back in the ox cart and would have laughed at her in secret.

So she walked slowly back along the path by the river.

The sunset in early summer was extremely beautiful, and the cool breeze from the river made her clothes flutter.

She has been busy in the past six months and has not had the time to appreciate the scenery of this era so quietly for a long time. The sunset, rivers and reeds before her eyes are just as described by the poet.

But just after she looked for a while, she heard Jing Qishan's voice.

"Miss!"

She turned around and saw Jing Qishan walking towards her with big strides, a smile on his face.

The evening breeze also blew up his clothes, belt, and hair. For a moment, she thought of the heroes in martial arts dramas.

Bullshit, Jing Qishan is not a hero.

He is now the chief constable, and constables are of low status. Who knows if he will have the chance to become a minister in the future?

But even if I don't become a minister, it would be nice to live an ordinary life like this.

At least we don't have to worry about him killing innocent people in the future.

While she was daydreaming, he had already arrived in front of her.

"Madam, are you looking at the scenery?"

"correct."

Jing Qishan also looked at her perspective just now, and it really looked like a spectacular picture of the sunset by the river.

"The scenery is nice. My lady has good taste." Jing Qishan said.

"Why didn't I see you just now? Where did you come from?" Li Yujiao asked.

Jing Qishan pointed to the path ahead and said calmly, "Actually, I came earlier, but I saw too many carriages and sedan chairs, so I didn't squeeze forward. I saw you walking this way, so I followed you."

"Where's Fugui?"

"Over there." Jing Qishan pointed not far away.

Fugui was tied under a tree, eating grass leisurely. If you didn’t know, you would think he was a cow from a nearby farmer.

Li Yujiao couldn't help but smile when she saw Fugui.

"Fugui is a very honest cow."

Speaking of cows, Jing Qishan couldn't help but say, "The case I handled today was related to cows. A group of ruffians in Xingyi Village secretly hid an old farmer's cow. When I went to look for it, they had already eaten the cow."

"Ah?" Li Yujiao was stunned for a moment, then asked: "What happened next? How did you deal with it?"

"Of course, they arrested the village ruffians, brought them to the government office for questioning, and then locked them up for half a year for theft."

"What about the old farmer? Isn't he very sad without his cow?"

"Of course, but the county magistrate ordered them to pay compensation, which is enough for me to buy a new cow."

Li Yujiao asked again: "Is this case going smoothly?"

Otherwise, how could it be done so quickly?

Jing Qishan sighed at this time: "It's not smooth, but it's not smooth. Only those of us who handle the case understand the difficulties."

Li Yujiao couldn't help but wonder.

Why does Jing Qishan say half and not say half?

It actually aroused her curiosity.

……

Early the next morning, Li Yujiao saw Ren An and two other constables coming to the noodle shop to eat noodles.

When Li Yujiao went to greet them, she asked them casually, "I heard that there was a case involving cattle yesterday?"

Ren An immediately said, "Yes, Captain Jing and I did it."

Li Yujiao asked, "Is it going well?"

"It wasn't going smoothly at first, but thanks to Captain Jing, it became smooth and the case was closed in less than half a day."

Li Yujiao asked: "How did you do it?"

Ren An recounted the whole process.

He was the party involved, so in order to make the case look good, he would naturally exaggerate the difficulty, for example: "The river was ten meters wide, and Captain Jing jumped across it!"

"Those village bullies usually run rampant in the village, and they are not even afraid of Deputy Constable Wu. But once they meet Jingtou, they become obedient!"

"Normally, few people would take care of this kind of case, and it's a thankless task, but Jingtou dared to take care of it."
