C484 frightened

Old Man Lu stared at Mr. Luo, he could not do anything, and obediently ran to find Li Qingling, but he did not expect the matter to go smoothly, as he had stated his purpose for coming here, Li Qingling nodded his head in agreement without saying a word.

He was so surprised that he didn't know what to say.

Actually, Li Qingling would agree so readily. Firstly, because he felt that they were going back to the capital, and it would be better to satisfy Old Master Lu's wish, and secondly, because he felt that there were still some huge monsters at home. It would be safer to let them follow them up the mountain, and he wouldn't need to worry about other fierce beasts appearing.

With these two conditions combined, she could easily nod her head.

Old Master Lu did not know what Li Qingling was thinking, he only knew that she had promised to let them play on the mountain.

Hearing that, Mr. Luo and the others quickly finished preparing their belongings and brought the guards up the mountain.

Li Qingling did not follow her. She was currently entertaining Hu Juanjuan in the parlour.

"When I think about the fact that the two of you are leaving the Ninghua County the day after tomorrow, I feel extremely reluctant." After knowing each other for five years, she had long treated Li Qingling as if he were her family. She was truly reluctant in her heart about their departure, "I wonder when we'll be able to meet again after this farewell?"

Li Qingling smiled at Hu Juanjuan. Speaking of which, she also couldn't bear to part with the people and things here.

"Wait for Ma Da to take the Beijing exam. You can come with me to the capital. Let's get together."

Hearing this, Hu Juanjuan smiled, "That's good." She hadn't been to the capital yet. When her son went to take the exam, she could really go with him and have a look.

Seeing that her mood had improved, Li Qingling opened his mouth to ask her again. Regarding the matter of buying the mushrooms, how could he not understand, just ask her, don't mention it.

After they leave, Magistrate Ma would take Liu Zhimo's position and become the county magistrate for the Ninghua County. She also handed the task of purchasing the mushrooms to Hu Juanjuan, believing that Hu Juanjuan would definitely do a good job with her abilities.

Hearing that, Hu Juanjuan did not bother to be polite with Li Qingling, and asked her the questions that she did not understand.

The reason why Li Qingling gave her the task of purchasing the mushrooms was because he believed in her and trusted her character. He believed that she would be able to shoulder this heavy burden.

Just for the sake of Li Qingling's trust, she must do this job well and definitely wouldn't disappoint Li Qingling.

She was well aware that the reason her husband was able to become a magistrate was also because of the help of her husband. Otherwise, he would have to stay in the county for the rest of his life.

The lord and his wife's kindness towards their family was deeply engraved in their hearts. They swore to the heavens that they would repay their trust and lead the citizens of the Ninghua County to a better life.

Li Qingling answered Hu Juanjuan's questions in detail, and at the end, what could she possibly not understand?

"Not at the moment. When I remember what I don't understand, I'll come and disturb you."

"Sure." Li Qingling nodded, "When I return to the capital, if you encounter any problems that you are unable to resolve, you can also write to me."

Hu Juanjuan replied and then chatted with Li Qingling for another hour before she stood up and left.

After sending Hu Juanjuan off, Li Qingling started getting busy again, the things that he did not pack had to be packed in the next two days.

He would bring those that could be used back to the capital, and those that couldn't would be given to the commoners.

The furniture in the house was quite good. Giving it to the commoners didn't seem too shabby.

She cleaned up from the morning till the evening before she finished packing up the things that needed to be brought back to the capital. She sat on the chair and drank two cups of tea to catch her breath.

"Liu Ye, has Grand Master and the others returned?"

She was so busy that she forgot to ask.

It couldn't be that he still hadn't returned, right?

"Madam, you're not back yet."

Indeed …

Li Qingling helplessly held her forehead and sighed, she had expected it to be so, every time he went up the mountain to play, he would be unwilling to come back, if not for this, she would not stop them from going up the mountain.

She put down the cup, stood up and said to Liu Ye, "Go, catch them." It was almost dark, and he still wasn't going down the mountain. Did he have the guts to do so?

She had repeatedly told them that the mountain was the most dangerous place after dark and that they had to leave before nightfall.

This time …

When Li Qingling brought Liu Ye to the backyard, he met Mr. Luo and the others.

She crossed her arms and raised her eyebrows at them. She said lightly, "Finally willing to come back?" I thought you were going to spend the night on the mountain!

Mr. Luo and Old Master Lu looked at each other, they thought at the same time, it's over, Xiao Ling is angry.

They thought that this was the last time they would be going up the mountain, and they were really lost in thought.

If it weren't for the fact that it was getting dark, they wouldn't be able to come back.

Mr. Luo gave Xiaoxiao a look and told her to coax her mother.

Although Xiao Ling had a lot of respect and filial piety towards them, he would not show mercy when it came to personal safety.

It didn't matter if you were a teacher or someone else.

Xiaoxiao winked at Mr. Luo, then ran over to Li Qingling while grinning, "Mother, we hunted a lot of wild animals and brought them back to the capital to eat." Her smile was so sweet and cute, could it be that her mother was angry with her?

However, he didn't know …

"Stop, don't laugh at me." Li Qingling pointed at Xiaoxiao and waved his finger behind him. "Go, stand together with your great-grandfather and the others."

If she didn't punish them, they wouldn't take her words to heart.

She could let them go up the mountain to play, but she had to be careful of her personal safety.

One had to know that after nightfall, it would be the battlefield for the wild beasts.

What if they were unlucky and met a bear blind?

Even with Tiger and the rest, they would not be able to do anything to the bear blind.

She looked at her mother's expression for a moment, then tactfully retreated back to Mr. Luo's side, shrugging her shoulders at Mr. Luo as a sign that she had failed.

Mr. Luo rubbed her little head, then raised her head and looked at Li Qingling. He switched to his pitiful policy, saying that they had not eaten dinner, and his stomach was very hungry.

With that, Old Master Lu and the others also expressed their hunger. Could they eat dinner first?

"You want to eat?"

"Yes …" Mr. Luo and the others answered in unison.

Li Qingling raised the corner of his mouth, coldly snorted and said, hungry.

"..."

Mr. Luo and the others felt that this matter was getting out of hand, and it was not good to be coaxing them.

At this time, Liu Zhimo came over. He gave Mr. Luo and the others a look and went to his side to hold Li Qingling's hand. Did your mother tell you to go down before dark? Did you forget? "Hmm?" If he didn't pacify his wife, his precious daughter would be in trouble.

For the sake of his precious daughter, he had to pacify his wife.

Xiaoxiao gave an apologetic look. "Mother, we know we were wrong. We won't do it again, okay?" Pausing for a moment, "We were just hunting a little more wild animals and bringing them back to the capital for Great Grandfather, Tai Laoye and the others to have a taste, only then would we … "That's why it's so late down the mountain." For their sake, mother will not punish them.

After hearing the news, Liu Zhirou and Li Qingning, who had rushed over to plead for them, also followed to advise Li Qingling.

Li Qingling swept his eyes across the three of them.

She cleared her throat and asked, How many wild animals did you hunt?

There was hope …

Hearing Li Qingling's words, the eyes of Mr. Luo and the others lit up, and they immediately stepped aside, allowing the guards to enter.

Looking at the prey that filled the entire backyard, Li Qingling didn't even have the strength to sigh.

Did they move the entire Ningxia back?

"I say, Camel, you guys didn't completely destroy Ningxia's wild animals did you?" Li Qingning clicked his tongue, "You guys went hunting in the mountains, why didn't you tell me?" She had missed this opportunity for nothing, and there would be no more opportunities in the future.

His heart was thumping …

He was too worried …

"Oh? "You want to go up the mountain too?"

With a violent shock, Li Qingning turned her head to look at Li Qingling who was hidden behind the shadows. She laughed, "About that, I was just casually saying it." Sniff, sniff, sniff … My sister is so scary … "Sis, can you bring so many wild animals back to the capital?" She suspected that even two carriages would not be able to hold so many wild animals.

Li Qingling glanced at Mr. Luo and the others again, and said with a smile that did not reach his eyes.

Mr. Luo and the others did not expect to hunt so many wild animals. For a moment, they felt a little guilty.

"Xiao Ling, how about this, half of it is brought back to the capital while the other half is given to the commoners. What do you think?" Mr. Luo suggested. There were too many wild beasts, so they couldn't be brought back at once.

With that, the anger in Li Qingling's heart also subsided. She nodded and agreed.

On their way back to the capital, he also made a trip back to Ox-Head Village to visit the villagers.

He had been in the Ninghua County for five years, and he didn't have the time to return there. This time, he had to return no matter what.

"Mother, Little Treasure is hungry. Can we eat now?" Seeing that Li Qingling's attitude had softened, the little imp immediately ran over and hugged Li Qingling's thigh in a spoiled manner.

Li Qingling lowered his head and looked at her, and helplessly patted her little head, "You …" Forget it, there would be no next time. "Come on, let's go eat."

Hearing that, Xiao Budian turned his head and blinked his eyes at Mr. Luo.

Mr. Luo and the others gave Xiaoxiao a big thumbs up.

"Cough cough …" Li Qingling coughed lightly and glanced at them again. Don't think that she didn't see their actions, she didn't want them to be unhappy, so she put them down gently. Otherwise …

Mr. Luo and the others instantly put down their hands, put on serious faces, and followed Li Qingling back to the dining room.

Seeing that Li Qingling and the others had returned, Madam Lu, who was sitting in the dining hall, smiled and said, Did you punish them?

Although she had heard the news, she felt that Old Master Lu and the others should be punished, so she did not soften Li Qingling's punishment.

"My wife …" Old Master Lu immediately climbed the mountain, "Say goodbye to your friends?" Changing the subject was the right path.

It had been decades since a husband and wife, how could she not know what Old Master Lu was thinking?

She smiled and nodded, continuing along the topic of Old Master Lu.

Suddenly, Mr. Luo and the others calmed down, and laughed while saying that they could eat.
