Chapter 260 I'm just a by-product

When they arrived at Wu's house, the doorman went in to report.

Soon, Mrs. Wu and Magistrate Wu came out with the doorman.

Su Jiuyue raised her eyes and looked at the two of them.

Mrs. Wu was fine, but County Magistrate Wu looked obviously depressed.

I haven't seen you for just a few days, but you look much more haggard.

"Ms. Su, how come you have time to come here?"

"Yue'er, you're here."

The two of them spoke at the same time.

Su Jiuyue explained her purpose.

"I came to see Brother Heng. I also have something to discuss with the county magistrate."

Mrs. Wu embraced her.

"It said inside that I had someone make sour plum soup."

Su Jiuyue did not resist her actions and followed her into the living room.

Heng Ge'er heard that Su Jiuyue was here.

He ran over and saw Su Jiuyue, and shouted with bright eyes: "Fairy sister!"

Su Jiuyue looked gentle.

Brother Heng is really gaining weight at a speed visible to the naked eye.

It can be seen that he has fully recovered now.

All psychological problems have been solved.

"Brother Heng, come here, let me see."

Su Jiuyue waved her hand and Heng Ge'er ran to her side.

Su Jiuyue joked, pinching Hengge'er's face.

"Not bad. It seems that Heng-ge really likes the food Zhihua made during the days I was away."

Hengge blushed and muttered.

"Fairy Sister said that I should eat well... I still like the food cooked by Fairy Sister!"

Heng Ge'er raised his fist to show his attitude.

Mrs. Wu covered her mouth and chuckled.

"I don't know who it was, but he kept talking about the braised pork Zhihua sent him last night when he was asleep."

Heng'er's true colors were exposed and he stomped his feet and looked at Madam Wu.

"mother!"

He ran away with a red face.

"This child is still shy."

Mrs. Wu looked at Heng Ge'er running away with amusement and smiled at Su Jiuyue.

Su Jiuyue couldn't help laughing.

Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Magistrate Wu drinking sour plum soup with a worried look on his face, not even noticing that the bowl was empty.

Su Jiuyue asked with concern.

"My Lord, is there something bothering you?"

Magistrate Wu still had a blank expression and did not hear what Su Jiuyue said.

Mrs. Wu sighed.

"It's still the group of disaster victims outside the city."

"Thanks to your reminder that day, my husband made preparations in advance and placed the victims in an abandoned house outside the city, and did not let them enter the city."

Mrs. Wu sighed again.

"Unexpectedly, since that day, more and more people have fled here from outside the city every day."

"The abandoned houses are unable to accommodate them, and we dare not allow anyone to enter the city rashly. The number of refugees is increasing."

"Although the government is actively responding, the number of refugees is huge after all."

"This is not a solution..."

Speaking of this, Mrs. Wu also frowned deeply.

Magistrate Wu finally came back to his senses and said with a complicated expression.

"I have written to the prefect to explain the situation, and he asked me to properly place these refugees."

"But Yishan County only has six villages in total. Even if these refugees are willing to settle in Yishan County, it can only accommodate 120 people at most."

"There are already more refugees outside the city than this number, ah..."

"How can I arrange for them to stay? Do we have to draw lots to decide who stays and who leaves? That's really too cruel..."

Su Jiuyue understood.

In her previous life, she knew a little about the resettlement of refugees in ancient times.

It is nothing more than distributing the refugees to various villages and making them become outsiders of the village.

But obviously, the villages in Yishan County cannot accommodate so many refugees.

Su Jiuyue had an idea in her mind.

However, everything will have to wait until we return from Xinghua Village.

Her coming today can be said to be adding fuel to the fire.

Su Jiuyue's face darkened and she spoke softly to Magistrate Wu.

"Sir, I heard today that a group of people have gathered among the refugees, committing crimes and bullying others."

"They robbed passing carriages, oppressed other refugees, and even denied them relief porridge."

"I'm afraid there are already complaints outside the city."

County Magistrate Wu slammed the table in shock!

"Is there such a thing?"

Su Jiuyue nodded seriously.

"Sir, the victims are already extremely nervous. If they are bullied and oppressed, I'm afraid something bad will happen."

County Magistrate Wu stood up with a gloomy face, not caring about Su Jiuyue.

"I will investigate this matter right now. If there is such a beastly act, I will not tolerate it!"

Magistrate Wu's figure had long disappeared in the living room, leaving only a burst of voice.

Su Jiuyue knew the seriousness of the matter, and was somewhat comforted to see that County Magistrate Wu was so concerned.

"He is like this. No one can stop him when he talks about business..."

Mrs. Wu forced an apologetic smile at Su Jiuyue.

Su Jiuyue shook her head.

"Madam, your Excellency's behavior is a blessing to the people."

As she had other things to do, Su Jiuyue did not stay long.

After talking to Mrs. Wu, he stood up and said goodbye.

When I returned to the Su Mansion, Bai Jinyan was leisurely drinking tea in the pavilion.

Seeing Su Jiuyue coming in, he waved.

Su Jiuyue glanced at her indifferently and sat down opposite her.

"We have found out that the one who wants to kill us is Miss Qian, Qian Xinyue."

As soon as Su Jiuyue sat down, Tulip spoke softly.

"Qian Xinyue?"

It turned out that she was the one who took action.

"I can understand killing you, but why do you want to kill me as well?"

Su Jiuyue raised the doubts in her mind.

Bai Jinyan paused while drinking tea.

"What do you mean by killing me? I understand. Why kill me?"

Su Jiuyue looked at her indifferently and did not respond.

You’re welcome to ask!

You've crippled the lady's hand, it's no wonder she doesn't fight you to the death!

Qian Xinyue's hand would be safe only if there was a strong man in the Earthly Martial Realm to help her force out her internal strength.

And it has to be forced out within one day, otherwise it will be useless even if it is forced out.

According to Lin Chengcheng.

The only strong man in the Earth Martial Realm who is known is Changliu Ye Baiyi who was crippled by someone.

It was almost impossible to find a strong man in the Earth Martial Realm to save her within just one day.

Unless Bai Jinyan shows mercy.

However, according to her observation, Bai Jinyan should not be that kind.

Therefore, Qian Xinyue is most likely useless.

As long as people are not stupid, they can recall what happened that day.

It is not difficult to guess that the person who took action was Bai Jinyan.

It makes sense to send a killer over.

But I’m just an ordinary person, okay?

Why kill her?

Su Jiuyue expressed her dissatisfaction.

However, Bai Jinyan's words made Su Jiuyue instantly lose her composure.

"But the mission she issued was to make sure you died without a burial place, preferably by being chopped into pieces. I was just a byproduct."

After saying that, he added another sentence, as if afraid that Su Jiuyue might not believe him.

"If I remember correctly, there were three times as many people who went to your room that night as there were me."

Su Jiuyue: ...

"Is she sick?"

Bai Jinyan quite agreed with this point.

"How cruel and perverted."

"By the way, you weren't at home all morning, what were you doing?"

Bai Jinyan suddenly asked.

"I went to the shop to check it out and sorted out the goods I was going to take to the capital."

Bai Jinyan curled the corner of his mouth slightly.

"Miss Su really can't rest. I am ashamed of myself."

"I have to go back to the capital in two days. You promised to take me out to play, don't forget it."

Bai Jinyan kindly reminded.

Su Jiuyue smiled gently.

"I'll take you to a nice place later!"
