looking for sister

The paperwork will be finished soon.

The moment Lin Jian looked away, she still felt that there were ink dots rising up in front of her eyes.

Su Mu wrote neatly, but he was obviously hesitant when preparing the wax seal. Lin Jian lit the lamp and handed it over. The next moment, he saw dancing flames in Su Mu's eyes.

"No matter how Dali Temple handles this thing, brother Chenghong should hand it over." Lin Jian tilted her head first, and then stared straight at it.Although he had lived recklessly and happily before, he still didn't know everything.

What's more, Su Mu's hesitation is already obvious enough.

"it is good."

After Su Mu responded, he quickly dealt with the letter, and Lin Jian also reached out to pack the things on the desk. When it was almost the end, he found that his hand was pinned down, and the pen holder next to it was smashed in the corner of the desk. crumbling.

"If you cause trouble because of this, we will go to a few elders and clarify your identity."

"Ah?" Lin Jian was stunned for a moment, but the words just now fell into his ears verbatim.

"What do you mean?" Lin Jian withdrew his hand, and there was a red mark on the back of his hand because of his strength.

From the beginning of preparing this document, Su Mu was very wrong, and he also understood the other party's doubts and anxiety.But the feeling of being pushed away right now is really uncomfortable.

Lin stared straight at it, and turned his head, "I don't want to postpone the process, I want you to make it clear now."

"There are three destinations for this document. One, the best possibility is to report it to the Holy Majesty from Dali Temple."

"Secondly, things are postponed, don't ask."

"The third..."

"It's because this thing involves too much, and the higher-ups feel that they can't handle it, so they push you out." Lin Jian hurriedly picked it up, and stood up with a "squeak", "So you feel that you have encountered such a thing? , I should write it off right away, right?"

Su Mu was obviously stunned for a moment, but the movements of his hands were not slow. Lin Jian's sleeves were pulled, so he had to sit back.Because of the convenient location, he even kicked Su Mu's legs a few times to vent his anger.

"Tuntian is located in the northeast of Fangzhou. In addition to the soldiers stationed there, there are also tens of thousands of ordinary people who are responsible for farming. If a major case occurs and cannot be dealt with in time, the consequences will be disastrous."

"The man escaped alone. He only said that the petition signed by hundreds of people disappeared. We don't know anything else. We only know that someone from the government may have been involved, but we don't know the identity of the other party. Since the man has escaped Still being hunted down, it can only prove that the case involves too much."

"If this case is really shocking and involves farming, they may not dare to report it directly. How to deal with the documents is also related to my safety."

"So I was pushed out by you and wiped out, right?" Lin Jian kicked a few times and became even angrier. Su Mu wanted to say something, but was cut off.

"Because the one who has a marriage contract with you is Sister, even if I am implicated, I can get away directly, right?"

"Ah Jian, you..." Su Mu was left speechless by the crackling meal, and didn't even bother to rub his calf for a while.

"Su Mu, do you hate me?"

"No, I like Ah Jian very much."

……

Lin Jian was aroused by his inexplicable words and got goosebumps all over his body, because such self-pity and suspicion were obviously not his usual temperament.However, when he thought of Su Mu abandoning him to risk his life, the uneasiness in his heart became heavy and couldn't go away.

"In that case, please take back what you just said."

...No, why is it still awkward.

After struggling for a while, Lin Jian turned his head away, supported the pen holder, and tapped on the desk again, "Brother Chenghong, did you get scared? Our two families are relatives by marriage. Could it be that you thought I was Can you run?"

Phew, this seems to be better.Lin Jian hurriedly got up and tried to stay away from here, but there was a knock on the door the next moment.

"Awkward?"

This was Su Chonglin's first sentence after entering the door.

"No, no, no." Lin Jian waved his hands quickly, but his eyes couldn't stop looking at the other person's face.This uncle has a sense of isolation that strangers are not allowed to enter, so that even such ordinary greetings make him feel uncomfortable.

So he had no choice but to move his hand to the mat, then slowly reached down and pinched Su Mu's leg.

"No, Second Uncle Lao is worried." Although he agreed in this way, Su Mu couldn't help but put his arms on his lap together a little more.The door opened hurriedly just now, and the document is now hidden in the cuff.

The two looked at each other, and both of them could see the hesitation in the other's eyes.Speaking of which, this was the first time they had come face to face with Su Chonglin after Lin Jian, the daughter-in-law of the Su family, was found out, and they were so close.

"Second Uncle is here, what's the matter?"

"Is it about Chengyu?"

Almost at the same time, the two opened their mouths at the same time, and then avoided them at the same time, almost bumping their heads together.

If Zhou Huairen saw this appearance, he would probably slap his thighs and laugh again and again, but Su Chonglin didn't change his face, just took the tea and took a sip, "It's about Li Chengyu's business."

This pair of uncles and nephews made it clear today that they were going to punish people, Lin Jian silently rolled his eyes in his heart, but he just dared to sit obediently, the smile on his face had been hanging on for a long time, and now he felt a little sour.

"I don't know why, Amu, you suddenly proposed to go to Baiyun Temple to pray for blessings, but it is always because of the case. But now it is obviously blocked, and Zhao Xiuyuan and the others have no news. So you came here to ask if you need help?"

"Of course, if it involves confidentiality, there is no need to say."

After finishing speaking, Su Chonglin went on to fetch the teacup.The remaining water was drunk in two sips and placed in the water bowl.

One big one and one small one, all of them are light and light green, which look nice with Su Chonglin's sleeve corners, and they are also very quiet.

The second uncle has always been like this. I don't know if it's because of his temperament since he was a child, or because he was cultivated in the academy. He speaks very straightforwardly, but it doesn't make people feel uncomfortable.Su Mu hesitated for a moment, then thought about it.

"It's about the clothes."

"Look at this." Without waiting for him to speak, Lin Jian bent down and took the cloth strip to the case.

The blue cloth strip was placed on the table, Su Chonglin glanced at it, then raised his head again, "Is it about the clothes?"

"Yeah." Lin Jian nodded heavily, "It could be regarded as calm at first, but after Chengyu made such a fuss, the person behind him may have guessed a little bit. But Chengyu is not, and the academy has been under martial law , It’s not easy to get out.”

After Lin Jian said this, he found that both of them were looking at him, "What... what's wrong?"

"Ah Jian is so smart." Su Mu praised.

"what?"

"We've been worrying about checking clothes secretly, but it's easier to forget the other thing. Just find out who went out that day, so you can know who it is?"

There was a smile in Su Mu's eyes. He wanted to reach out and scratch the nose to tease him, but there were elders present, so he could only hold back.

Su Chonglin sat on the other side and didn't say anything, obviously ignorant of this matter.Lin Jian also saw this, and besides, she didn't doubt him at all.In fact, only he and Su Mu knew about the cloth strips hanging on the dead branches in the woods.

"The person who went out might be the ghost of the academy?"

After about half a quarter, Su Chonglin said this, with a slight sense of surprise on his face.

That's right, Mr. Su, you must be pretending not to be very surprised.Lin Jian silently pressed back the words that came to her lips, but at this moment, she saw the other party's sleeve move.

Su Chonglin seemed to sit up straighter. "Speaking of which, I was wrong. I asked A Lian to bring some books back that day. In this way, the scope of your investigation will be wider."
