    ?

    The old man of the Jiao family cast a stern glance at Zhongwen, and then said earnestly: "Grandpa didn't ask you anything, but today you must agree to my request."

    Xiuzhen nodded obediently and said, "Grandpa, tell me, I will listen to you!"

    The old man of the Jiao family nodded approvingly at Xiuzhen, then took Xiuzhen's hand and said, "Zhen'er, you are the most obedient, I knew you were more obedient than Zhongwen."

    "Today, Mr. Du, the county magistrate, called me over. He told me that the chaste memorial arch has been erected, and he is waiting for the magistrate to come and cut the ribbon. He made a request, saying that this is to establish our Jiao family as a county.  It's a big flag, and our Jiao family can't discredit it. From now on, you two have to strictly abide by the rules, you are not allowed to meet in private, and you are not allowed to violate the rules, how about it?"

    When Xiuzhen heard the request made by the old man of the Jiao family, she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and her face instantly turned into a red cloth with embarrassment.

    Zhongwen said loudly to his grandfather, "Grandpa, what do you mean by that? Xiuzhen and I are completely innocent and have never violated the rules. Why do we agree to these conditions of yours?"

    The old man of the Jiao family was so angry that he put his fingers on Zhongwen's face and kept trembling, unable to speak.

    Seeing that Grandpa was very angry, Xiuzhen hurried forward and stroked the chest of the old man of the Jiao family, and comforted her: "Grandpa, don't be angry, Zhen'er promises you."

    Zhongwen said to Xiuzhen: "Grandpa is so confused, why are you like this? If you agree, you are admitting that we have misbehavior, and you can't admit it for the sake of your name!"

    Xiuzhen also felt that Zhongwen's words made sense, but when she turned her head and saw that the old man of Jiao's family was too angry to speak, she couldn't help being in a dilemma, and murmured: "What should I do, we can't let the old man speak."  Is Grandpa in trouble?"

    Zhongwen said: "This is all caused by the county magistrate. He wants to use the archway to cover up his poor performance and make a bright spot to please his superiors. Why can't you see it!"

    Xiuzhen stared noncommittally and said, "Impossible, where did you hear the news?"

    Zhong Wen said: "How is that impossible? I heard that the magistrate of Du Heng ranked at the bottom of the performance assessment this time. A fool can figure out why he worked so hard to build the archway. It was because the Jiao family was careless. Why did we agree at that time?  "

    The old man of the Jiao family listened to Zhongwen's words while panting, and he gradually became more thoughtful.

    "What Zhongwen said makes sense. The Jiao family probably let Du Zhixian be used as a gun. But how can things be so good now that the officials have crushed people to death?" The old man of the Jiao family was thinking secretly.

    Zhongwen saw some clues from the expression of the old man of the Jiao family, and he said to his grandfather slowly: "Grandpa, you don't need to worry, our Jiao family can't be anxious about this matter, someone is anxious."

    The old man of the Jiao family stared wide-eyed and asked, "Who is in a hurry, and is there anyone else who is more anxious than us?"

    Zhongwen said: "Whoever erects the archway is in a hurry, let's just say "delay" now.

    The old man of the Jiao family asked curiously: "How do you procrastinate?"

    Zhongwen couldn't help laughing seeing the anxious look of the old man of the Jiao family, he said: "Grandpa, can you pretend to be sick, just say that you suddenly suffered a stroke, your mouth and eyes are crooked, and you can't talk or walk, how about it?"

    The old man of the Jiao family pondered for a long time after listening to Zhongwen's words, and finally nodded and said: "Okay, just do as Zhongwen said, and I will pretend to be sick during this time to observe Du Zhixian's reaction and see if it is Zhongwen's analysis.  like that."

    The next day, the neighbors of the Jiao family got the news, "The old man of the Jiao family had a stroke last night, and he can't speak anymore!" (Remember this website: www.hlnovel.com
