After the vicious adoptive mother gave up, the scumbag children regretted it

Chapter 154 Decapitation meal

Lin Xueqing was ecstatic. The young master still liked her. No matter in the past life or the present life, the young master would pamper her and love her. Except for not being able to give her a decent identity, the young master was really good to her.

However, in this life, she couldn't let the young master look down on her, so she shook her head and refused: "A gentleman loves money but gets it in a proper way. Although I am a little girl, I also have my own principles and will not accept anything from a strange man."

Yang Lingzhao thought more highly of her. What a good girl she was. "You are so noble and upright. I really admire you. I wonder if you can tell me your name. It is my honor to meet you."

The waiter immediately held him up and said, "You probably don't recognize him, but this is our young master. I'm not afraid to tell you that he's the young master of the prefect's family. He's of noble status, and it's a blessing for you to be able to talk to him."

Lin Xueqing was neither humble nor arrogant, but just showed just the right amount of surprise. How could she not know his identity?

Even the master who knew Yang Lingzhao best and served him for five years in his previous life, "Really? I am sorry for being rude. I am Lin Xueqing, and I am honored to meet Master Yang."

"Xueqing, what a nice name! There is such an elegant girl in such a small place. Have you ever been to school?"

"I only know a few words, I can't say I've read them. I have something else to do, so I won't bother you anymore. Let's pay the bill."

Yang Lingzhao insisted on giving her a silver hairpin that weighed more than one tael, and he forced it on her, "Meeting by chance is fate, if you don't want to accept it, just throw it away.

If you need anything in the future, you can go to the Yang family of the prefecture city to find me. This will be a token of my love."

Lin Xueqing hesitated for a moment, but did not insist on being aloof and accepted the hairpin. Naturally, she did not have to pay for the other things, and the waiter personally escorted her out.

Yang Lingzhao had other things to do and was not here to have affairs. Things were important, otherwise his father would break his legs when he returned, so he could not delay any longer.

It is also a happy thing to meet an interesting young lady.

Lin Xueqing was also very happy that she got to know Young Master Yang so quickly. Maybe she could help Brother Jiang in the future.

When she returned to the woodshed, she saw Jiang Chen sitting on the wooden bed. She couldn't see her face in the shadows, which made Lin Xueqing feel a little guilty. "Brother Jiang, you're here."

Putting away the hairpin, fearing that he would see it, Lin Xueqing carefully sat beside him and asked, "Is there any progress on the village chief's matter?"

"There are some. Prepare some food, braised pork, roast chicken, white rice, something rich. I will go to visit the village chief tomorrow."

Lin Xueqing was not satisfied with the stupidity: "It would be fine if you just brought some good food. Do you have to make it so sumptuous? We don't even eat like this during the Chinese New Year. This is not the last meal before execution!"

Jiang Chen looked at her silently. Lin Xueqing's heart skipped a beat. Could this really be the last meal before execution?

"Brother Jiang, it's not that bad, right?"

"What do you know? Just do it if you are asked to do it. Did the village chief's family give you money?"

"I did give her some, but not much. You know how stingy the village head is. She only gave me some travel expenses after I insisted."

"You can use it first. I'm having a hard time here too. The county town is not like home. You need money everywhere. I'm going back to the academy first. Don't let Dayou know about this."

"I definitely won't tell him. I wish I could sew his mouth shut. He keeps saying all kinds of nonsense. It's so annoying."

Jiang Chen was in a bad mood, so he didn't talk to her much and just got up and left.

Lin Xueqing was immersed in the joy of meeting her former master. She couldn't help but compare Jiang Chen with Yang Lingzhao. The rich life of the Yang family made her yearn for it. The head maid was raised to be more pampered than the ordinary young ladies of wealthy families. She really had fine clothes and delicious food. It was the most comfortable life she had ever lived.

But the glory of a lady of the Juren family is not comparable to that of a maidservant, and there is more room for her to thrive. She still has high hopes for Brother Jiang.

Just treat the young master as a friend.

Lin Xueqing was reluctant to give up the wealth that Yang Lingzhao had brought her. After all, her life was too hard now. She could not even get enough to eat and could not even afford to buy a hair flower. She was not even half as beautiful as she was in her previous life.

A girl’s beauty is largely acquired through cultivation. Without money to dress up, even a fairy won’t be that pretty.

"Hey……"

Lin Xueqing sighed deeply. It was really too difficult to choose. Why couldn’t he have both?

If Shen Nanzhi knew Lin Xueqing's ambition, she would be so angry that she would laugh. What's the point of dreaming when none of them belongs to you?

She is just a maid to Yang Lingzhao, and a concubine to Jiang Chen. Both of them are scumbags. She really likes any scumbag.

Shen Nanzhi waited for a whole day, but Yang didn't come. Maybe she had given up on the Chen family's land. Or maybe she was not in the mood because Village Chief Jiang hadn't come back yet.

There is no regret. It might be useful if I keep it. As for land, no one can complain about having too much.

He did not stay in the village and returned to the county town early in the morning to deal with the matter of Village Chief Jiang.

I am curious whether Jiang Chen will rescue the person, but my instinct is that he won't, because the village chief is of such an old age that he is no longer of any use.

First, go to the county government office to transfer Chen the Hunter's household registration. There are people in the county government office to help. The document with Chen the Hunter's fingerprints is filed, so there is no need for him to come in person, and the household registration will be done.

From now on, Hunter Chen and Widow Xu's family are all from Yushu Village and have nothing to do with Shimo Village.

When I came out of the county government office, I happened to see Jiang Chen and Lin Xueqing walking into the prison together. Are they going to visit the village chief?

"Miss Shen, what are you looking at?"

The guard at the gate greeted her, not treating her as an outsider, and his eyes lit up, "Miss Shen, I haven't seen you for two months. You've lost so much weight. You're so beautiful that I can't even recognize you."

Shen Nanzhi said carelessly: "In a few months, I will be more beautiful and you will not recognize me. I just saw my ex-husband went to jail. I also want to visit the former village chief. Is that okay?"

The officer said, "Miss Shen, you are being polite. I will take you there. The jailer is my cousin. You can live there."

Shen Nanzhi: "Can you speak? Who wants to live in prison?"

"I was wrong, shall we go now?"

"No, wait a minute."

Shen Nanzhi hid behind the gate of the county government office, grabbed some melon seeds and chatted with the officers, listening to a lot of gossip in the county.

The most talked about thing was how Magistrate Cao doted on his new concubine. He held her in his heart. Concubine Xia could even appear in social events on behalf of the county magistrate, and everyone called her Madam Xia.

"Doesn't your county magistrate have a wife?"

"Yes, but I am back home taking care of my parents-in-law. I didn't come with you."

Shen Nanzhi didn't want to comment. She said that all men are bad and she was tired of saying this.

"Out."

Shen Nanzhi was shocked and said, "Thank you very much. I'll treat you to a drink some other day."

"Then we'll remember to wait for your treat."

Shen Nanzhi has already booked a private room in the restaurant and is just waiting for their time. He can invite them anytime. It will be very convenient to do anything in the future if he can establish good relationships with these servants.

The guard was called Gao Liang. He took her to the prison. Gao Hu's uncle said angrily, "Why did you bring a girl to a place like this? Is there something wrong?"

Shen Nanzhi stuffed a purse into his hand. It was filled with about forty or fifty copper coins, which was already a very thick red envelope.

The cousin subconsciously stuffed the purse into his sleeve. Before Shen Nanzhi could even see his movements, the purse disappeared.

"Uncle, what did those two people who just left say to the prisoner? Can you tell me? They are my enemies, and I suspect they said bad things about me."

Gao Liang's uncle smiled with a dignified look on his face. This girl was capable and pleasant to the ear. She did not treat herself as an outsider. He whispered, "Of course I listened. If something goes wrong, I will not be able to report to the authorities.

These two people are not good people, they are sending you a meal before your execution!"
