Chapter 243: Master Shangguan, cover me!

Zhang Nan didn't notice at all the way his fellow government officials looked at him, but subconsciously thought that the people in the official government were too arrogant and didn't take him seriously.

In fact, this is no wonder Zhang Nan, no one in the yamen told him what Shangguan Mansion existed!

Zhang Nan is a good subordinate of Capt. Jin, but Zhang Nan entered the Yamen a month ago, so he didn't tell Zhang Nan anything about Shangguan's family.

"Zhang Nan, stop talking..." Someone gently pulled Zhang Nan's sleeve.

"What's wrong?" Zhang Nan turned his head in confusion.

"Actually, the Shangguan family... In fact, the master has told me before that you should not disturb the Shangguan family if you have nothing to do." The Yamen servant explained in a low voice.

Hearing this, Zhang Nan tensed up: "Aren't you talking nonsense? Who bothers me when they have nothing to do? Isn't this to search for the gangsters and then arrest this capable woman?"

The government officials were all speechless.

When Shangguan Yan saw this, he laughed a little, thinking that it turned out to be a raw melon egg. He thought it was an old fried dough stick from the yamen!

"You laugh——"

"What's going on? Why are you disturbing Master Shangguan?!"

Before Zhang Nan could finish speaking, a sharp voice pierced the air and reached the ears of everyone in the backyard.

Zhang Nan stiffened.

When the footsteps got closer and closer, he hurriedly knelt down and said, "I've seen you, sir!"

Other government officials also knelt down.

The person who came was none other than the county magistrate.

The county magistrate coldly rolled his sleeves and said: "You shameful trash! Get out of here!"

Zhang Nan did not dare to resist and said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, my subordinates will take the people away right now..."

When the people from the county government walked out of the yard, Su Xiaoxia glanced at Shangguan Yan calmly, then looked at the county magistrate, thinking that this group of people really bullied good and feared evil!

If he didn't know Shangguan Yan, he might be discovered by Zhang Nan and would have no choice but to be taken back to the county government office!

"Master Shangguan, I'm sorry, it's——"

"My lord, the county magistrate, they also followed the order and went door to door to search for thieves. I won't care about so many things. It's just my lord, I want to vouch for her. She is by no means the kind of person who colludes with thieves. On the contrary, she is still me.

The young master’s benefactor.”

After finishing speaking, Shangguan Yan looked at Su Xiaoxia and gave the latter a reassuring look.

Su Xiaoxia raised the corner of her mouth, smiling but not smiling, and a flash of surprise flashed in her eyes. She didn't expect Shangguan Yan to say that on his own initiative.

When the county magistrate heard this, he also looked up at Su Xiaoxia, wondering why Shangguan Yan would help Su Xiaoxia.

"Since he is the person vouched for by Master Shangguan, he will naturally not be within the scope of my suspicion." The county magistrate broke into a cold sweat and spoke angrily.

"In that case, I won't chat so much with you. If you want to search, just do it. I will go to Xujiacun with Madam Su in a while."

"Ah? Why did Master Shangguan go to Xujiacun?" the county magistrate asked subconsciously.

Shangguan Yan didn't care and explained: "Ms. Su knows medical skills. My body needs to be recuperated. It will be more convenient to live in the same village with Mrs. Su."

After hearing this, the county magistrate smiled and said: "That's the case, then I won't delay Young Master Shangguan. I believe that Young Master Shangguan is definitely not a person who is collaborating with the thieves, and the Shangguan Mansion will not search again... I still have

If you have something to do, let’s take the first step.”

"Sir, walk slowly!" Shangguan Yan nodded.

Su Xiaoxia also stood up and bowed her head: "My lord, magistrate, walk slowly!"

The county magistrate nodded and turned to leave. However, when he turned around, he took a deep look at Su Xiaoxia and then walked out of the yard thoughtfully.

After all the people from the county government left Shangguan Mansion, Su Xiaoxia pretended to be curious and asked: "Master Shangguan, your... identity is not simple, isn't it?"

Xiao Qi said proudly: "That's right! My young master is -"

"Ahem!" Butler Hao coughed slightly, interrupting Xiao Qi's words to show off.

Xiaoqi's expression changed and he quickly closed his mouth.

When Su Xiaoxia saw this, she just smiled and didn't care.

After all, she knew who he was, otherwise she wouldn't have made him promise her three things on the pretext of curing him when she made the deal with him.

"Ms. Su, I'm not a big shot. It's just that my father happens to have some friendship with the county magistrate. So when I come here, the county magistrate will take care of me in every possible way."

Hearing Shangguan Yan's euphemistic words, Su Xiaoxia knew that she shouldn't ask any more questions, so she smiled tacitly: "Then I will go into business with Young Master Guan now, so I will have to trouble Young Master Shangguan to take care of me!"

"Ms. Su has been kind to me, and I always know how to repay kindness." Shangguan Yan replied.

As soon as the sound fell, Su Xiaoxia, Shangguan Yan and others happened to have packed their bags and left Shangguan Mansion.

This time when we went to Xujia Village, in addition to Shangguan Yan, Housekeeper Hao and Xiao Qi, there was another person, but this person was only met by Su Xiaoxia on the carriage in Shangguan Mansion.

This man is wearing a blue gown and a Confucian scarf. He looks elegant, is over thirty years old, and has a cold expression.

"Young Master Shangguan." The man in a long gown nodded gently to Shangguan Yan.

Shangguan Yan nodded and moved from the wheelchair to the chair with Xiaoqi's help.

After Su Xiaoxia also got on the bus, Shangguan Yan said: "Ms. Su, this is Du Qingqiu, the wife I found for Dabao earlier. This time he will go to Xujiacun with me. He is usually responsible for teaching Dabao."

When Su Xiaoxia heard this, she nodded towards the man in long gown, Du Qingqiu: "Master Du, you are polite."

Du Qingqiu marveled at Su Xiaoxia's ease and was also stunned by her behavior.

When he learned that Master Shangguan asked him to teach a student from a poor family, he still felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

After all, I was the number one scholar at that time. If it weren't for his stubborn illness, I wouldn't have been reduced to working as a teacher in a wealthy family.

He originally thought that since the students he wanted to teach were from poor families, their parents must be country people who were illiterate and had no manners, so he kept a sullen face.

Now that he saw that Su Xiaoxia looked so extraordinary and knew how to be polite, he was a little confused whether the students he was going to teach next were really from a poor family...

"Master Du?" Su Xiaoxia called out again.

Du Qingqiu came to his senses: "Sorry, I'm rude."

"It doesn't matter." Su Xiaoxia shook her head gently, "Otherwise than when we meet, my name is Su Xiaoxia, and Master Du can call me Madam Su."

"Ms. Su."

"Now that we know each other, I will ask Master Du to teach my Dabao carefully from now on!" Su Xiaoxia said politely.

Du Qingqiu simply said: "That's where the responsibility lies."

After a while, Shangguan Yan saw that the two of them were no longer talking, so he ordered Xiao Qi and Butler Hao to set off.

On the way to Xujiacun, the atmosphere in the carriage was a bit eerily quiet, and none of the three of them had a topic to chat with.

At this time, Su Xiaoxia was recalling the plot of the original text.

Du Qingqiu, this name sounds familiar, it seems to have appeared in the original text.

But maybe because there weren't many words describing Du Qingqiu, she didn't notice the plot in which Du Qingqiu appeared.

After an unknown amount of time, the carriage stopped.
