Magistrate Xu has never liked Li Qingyou very much. In his eyes, a woman should be gentle and gentle, and should be at home caring for her husband and raising children, instead of causing trouble all day long.

Li Qingyou was the one causing trouble all day long, but those who had anything to do with her were the ones he couldn't afford to mess with, so Magistrate Xu didn't like to see her very much.

But I didn't want to see her in my heart, so I still had to show off my skills. I put down the half-read file and nodded towards the door, "Let her in."

When Li Qingyou took out the autographed letter from Young Master Wei, County Magistrate Xu was surprised, but he didn't feel too surprised. After all, he had long known that the Li family siblings had a close relationship with the Young Master Wei, and that Young Master Wei had taken good care of them.

Excusable.

Besides, Li Qingyou always does amazing things, even if she does something surprising again, he won't find it too strange.

County Magistrate Xu remembered his previous question. It was not surprising that Li Qingyou met the young master of the Wei family by chance, but she was able to hook up with the Shen family and engage in business with the Shen family, which puzzled him.

Although he could roughly guess some of the Shen family's intentions, Li Qingyou was a commoner after all, and she was still a woman. She wanted to deal with the two big families, let alone her. Even he, the head of a county, was afraid

There is no such method.

Li Qingyou said nothing and looked at Magistrate Xu quietly for a long time, until Magistrate Xu uncomfortably clenched his fists and coughed a few times, then he raised his lips and smiled lightly, and said, "Catch up."

This is not a business."

Magistrate Xu was stunned for a moment, and then he understood what Li Qingyou meant.

It’s not that she actively wanted to climb up to these two houses. She couldn’t even climb up even if she wanted to. Just like it’s almost impossible for a person at the bottom of a cliff to climb up with bare hands, but someone at the top of the cliff can easily climb up with a hand.

.

It was the Wei family who extended their hand, and so did the Shen family. Otherwise, how could Li Qingyou have hooked up with him?

Magistrate Xu nodded. He would be lying if he said he was not disappointed. The difference between active and passive is not the slightest, and he has always been in a passive position, just like the cabbages in the vegetable market that anyone can choose from.

Magistrate Xu sighed.

"Actually..." Li Qingyou hesitated and glanced at County Magistrate Xu, "It's not necessarily a good thing."

It's just mutual use. It's just that we can't say this clearly. However, with Xu County Magistrate's astuteness, he naturally guessed the meaning of Li Qingyou's words, but he still didn't take it seriously.

So what if it is used, it means it is valuable if it can be used. It would be sad if no one even uses it.

"A blessing in disguise is a blessing in disguise?" Magistrate Xu laughed and laughed.

Li Qingyou also smiled. She could generally get a glimpse of Magistrate Xu's attitude, but she didn't care about it. Magistrate Xu had nothing to do with her. Besides, he was an adult and the head of a county.

It's not her turn to preach.

In addition to delivering Mr. Wei's personal letter, she also had something to do when she came today.

"Are you talking about the murder case of your adoptive parents?" Magistrate Xu, who had been chatting and laughing just now, suddenly looked serious. Judging from the way he adjusted his sitting posture, he seemed to be uneasy.

Li Qingyou knew that the murder of the Li family couple was not simple, but now Magistrate Xu had a fearful look on his face, which also made her heart skip a beat.

"Yes, the gift of childbirth is greater than heaven. If there were no parents, Qingyou would not be where he is today." Li Qingyou sighed, "The grace of saving my life should be repaid with a spring. Even if I am incapable now, I don't want my parents."

It’s not clear why you went there, you have to find out, right?”

This matter has always existed in Li Qingyou's heart and has never been forgotten. The reason why I didn't mention it before was because I never found a suitable opportunity.

"Is this..." County Magistrate Xu pondered for a moment, thinking, "At that time, the county remembered that it was Qi Zuo who went to examine the body, and concluded that it was self-suicide, and there was no trace of a fight, so..."

So they committed suicide and it has nothing to do with anyone else.

Li Qingyou frowned, intuiting that Magistrate Xu was not telling the truth. People's first reactions cannot deceive others. When Magistrate Xu heard her asking about the cause of death of her adoptive parents, his expression became serious for a moment, as if he had some scruples.

The Li family and his wife are just ordinary people. What ability do they have that the magistrate should be concerned about?

That only shows that the person behind the murder of the old couple has a great background, but how could two ordinary people provoke such a being?

Things seem to be getting more and more bizarre.

Haste makes waste, Li Qingyou understood this truth, so he did not continue to ask, but talked about other things, "Master Xu has been in Qingshan County for almost a year, right?"

Li Qingyou stopped asking, and Magistrate Xu breathed a sigh of relief. He happily changed the subject and nodded along with her words, "Yes, time flies. In the blink of an eye, this county has been an official for more than ten years, but it is still..."

He is just a mere county magistrate, which is sad to say.

It's just that the second half of the words was not spoken. After all, he was in front of outsiders and he was still a common man, so he couldn't get off stage.

But the regret in his heart had nowhere to express, and it was really empty, otherwise he wouldn't have felt so much as soon as Li Qingyou mentioned this topic.

"Looking at the road ahead, you can see everything at a glance, but looking back again, you are at a loss, alas..." County Magistrate Xu shook his head.

Although he has been an official for many years, he has always been a small county magistrate in a local area with no one above him. Moreover, the places where he served as an official were only barren lands, and he could not bear to plunder the people's wealth and wealth.

This resulted in him being a county magistrate who was very poor. Although he was not as good as his own, it was not much different.

With no connections and no money to open the way, it can be seen that there is still no hope for the future official career. This kind of life that can only be seen at the end is actually quite discouraging.

But I can't say this clearly, I can only talk about some specious words to solve the problem.

Li Qingyou curled up her lips and listened. She was not a thirteen-year-old girl. She had lived for twenty-seven years in her previous life. She could somewhat understand Magistrate Xu's depression and dissatisfaction.

"It all depends on people. I believe that with your talents and methods, you will be able to achieve success within a short time." Li Qingyou said with a smile.

Magistrate Xu felt very comfortable with this horse shot. Even if he knew she meant it as a compliment, who doesn't like to hear compliments?

"Miss Li was joking. The responsibility of an official is to make decisions for the people. This county has no ambitions. It only aims to benefit the people. It is enough not to be scolded as a corrupt official by the people behind their backs." Magistrate Xu was modest as usual.

sentence.

Li Qingyou immediately flattered him a few more times, and every flattery hit the mark. The flattery made Xu County Magistrate dizzy and he didn't know what to do.

Then Li Qingyou changed the subject, "I wasn't joking just now. I think I am a commoner girl who still knows how to make progress. What's more, adults are talented, knowledgeable, and have great ambitions. Sooner or later, they have to show their strength. Of course, no matter how good a thousand-mile horse is, you have to meet him.
