I am the county magistrate in Liaozhai

What kind of old antique crawled out of an urn is this?Returning to the daughter's family, there are still women in the world who inherit the female household. Is this really a fox demon, not some sour-mouthed old scholar? !

It's no wonder Cheng County magistrate sighed so much, because even the members of the Weng family didn't expect the Weng old man's thoughts of being a monster and being upright on weekdays to be so extreme. No distinction? How about anything else?Even because of the nature of a fox demon, it is easier for a fox girl to cultivate, okay?

Besides, Changting has a generous personality and is proficient in Weng's alchemy, so the fox girl doesn't have to be? Married, why can't she be the head of the family?

Then a fox said loudly: "I agree with Changting being the head of the family!"

"I agree too!"

"I also!"

The clansmen raised their hands one after another, but Chang Ting couldn't refuse, but Weng Sou's face became even more ugly, and he tried to convince the foxes with his own sour thoughts: "Chang Ting is the daughter of the old man, and the old man loves her very much." , but? The daughter's family is going to be married after all, so she has become the head of the family, so is it possible that she wants to marry off with all the young and old of the Weng family?"

After finishing speaking, he also cast a bitter glance at Shi Taipu who was leaning against the wall, if it wasn't for this useless mortal, he wouldn't be in such an embarrassing situation.

Changting turned her head in astonishment, she really did not expect her to be such an existence in the eyes of her father.

She just opened her mouth, but Hong Ting was faster than her: "Father, how can you say that about my sister? Why does the fox girl have to marry someone?"

Seeing his beloved little daughter contradicting himself, Weng Su became even angrier: "If you don't marry and stay? What do you do at home? Is it possible? Will your father and I support you all your life?"

"I can't listen to it? Go, you really think you are the master of the landlord's family, why raise them for a lifetime, look at your old age, whether they are raising you or you are raising them, you have no idea Is it?" Maomao could hardly hear it, and his blood was soaring. He said, "It's a lot of age, the cultivation base is not good, and the character is not good. He finally gave birth to two good daughters, but he still wants to learn from the world? Are you out of your mind with that set of rules for marrying a daughter?"

"I don't have it!" Facing the questioning eyes of the clansmen, the old man was so angry that he was about to shed tears, "Think about it, if the old man didn't learn the rules of the world, how could our family develop so smoothly? The elder of the fox clan They are all advocating conformity to the way of heaven, and today the way only favors the human race, such a mortal can chase away a ghost at will and ask for favor, if we liberate the demon nature, where will we get a big house to live in, where will we get money?"

After hearing this, the members of the Weng family were hesitant for a moment. This sounds reasonable, but they always felt that something was wrong.

Just when Old Man Weng felt that he was talking about molesting his clansmen, that annoying voice sounded again: "Master Weng, how did you secretly change the concept? Not bad. Have you behaved? Do you dare to swear that you have no half? Selfishness?"

Weng Sou: ... Gan.

"I'm tired too. I didn't see you chasing away a ghost at will. If it wasn't for me, it's unknown whether this ghost can be eliminated. I've never seen anything like yours." Treat your benefactor." After Cheng Jin finished speaking, he stood up, "Miss Changting, I just want to ask you a question, are you willing to be the head of the Weng family?"

The eyes of all the demons fell on Changting in an instant, and Weng Sou wanted to speak again, but? Obviously Cheng Jin didn't want to listen to any more hot-blooded patriarchal cancer thoughts, so he asked the female ghost sister to hold the fox down, see? After Weng Sou closed the wheat, the county magistrate Cheng smiled and said to Changting: "How is it, Miss Changting?"

Changting pinched her fingers, and her heart was beating like a small drum. She quickly realized that she was facing a hurdle that would change her life. If she refused, although she could win her father's favor, but After that, is it possible to get married?

And Hong Ting, if she married someone, Hong Ting would be so naive, would she want to marry in the back house of a mortal?

When she was hesitating, Weng Mu, who had always had a weak sense of existence, suddenly said, "Changting, no matter what you choose, I will support you."

Weng Sou couldn't believe his ears, why?Why can't even the people next to his pillow understand his good intentions?

Then the next moment, Hong Ting also expressed his attitude: "Sister, I support you too."

What is betrayal?That's it, Weng Sou finally paid the price for his self-willed and self-willedness. Although Cheng Jin's iron fist didn't greet the old fox's face, losing his status is simply more uncomfortable than beating a fox ten times.

After all, injuries will always heal, but it is impossible for the lost Patriarch position to come back.

Chang Ting nodded under the earnest eyes of almost all the clansmen, and the moment she agreed, she felt her heart soar, and even her heart opened up a lot, and even the next moment, her cultivation level rose a lot.

"how can that be?"

Chang Ting's cultivation base has risen. I am afraid that everyone present except Cheng Jin can clearly feel it, and among them, the one who has been hit the hardest is Weng Sou.

"Why! Why do you increase your cultivation as soon as you agree? This old man has worked hard for so many years and accumulated a lot of gold and silver for the family. Why do you retreat if you do not advance? This is not fair!"

Changting couldn't answer, because she didn't know the specific reason, she just felt that she broke free from some kind of shackles, and after her mental state leaped forward, everything she saw before was different from what she is now.

Cheng Jin guessed a little bit, but he obviously didn't have the enthusiasm to answer the demon's questions. Seeing that Wengsou had successfully stepped down and the clan supported Changting as the new head of the family, he decided to return to Tangxi.

"Wow, it's really heart-warming, but sir, are you really not going to beat him up?"

This little cat is really full of bad thoughts, Cheng Jin turned his head to look at the cat: "Too lazy? Beat him up, anyway, he will pay for it in the future." Chang Ting has a good heart, but Weng Sou obviously didn't give up, his mind went astray, Definitely will do something else.

"What evil debt? Can't you talk about it specifically." Maomao said excitedly, just about to continue talking, and saw that Changting, surrounded by his clan, proposed to withdraw from Shi Taipu. Shi Taipu really wanted to continue the marriage contract, but? In the end, he was forced to break the engagement due to the situation, and left in despair. As for revenge, he didn't dare to have it.

He's just a ghost catcher who knows ordinary spells. That adult's hands and eyes are open to the sky, and the ghosts of the underworld treat him with three points of respect? How dare he offend people.It is true that he likes Changting very much, but? He loves himself more.

It was getting dark now, Changting invited Cheng Jin and his party to stay overnight on behalf of the Weng family, but Cheng Jin was so concerned about the capital at the moment, why would he stay?

"Xiniang, do you want to stay? To accompany Hongting?"

Xi Niang was indeed hesitant, but she still shook her head: "Hongting said no, now that the Weng family has just changed their owners, it's not right for me to stay."

That being the case, Cheng Jin bid farewell to Weng Changting and returned to Tangxi Yamen with a group of ghosts.

In fact, Chang Ting really wanted to ask the Taoist priest's name, but thinking about the burden on his shoulders, he still suppressed all the words in his heart.

"Sister, is there something on your mind?"

Chang Ting reached out and touched his younger sister Hong Ting's soft hair: "No, I just agreed to it just now? I'm so happy, I'm afraid my father is already very angry with me."

Hong Ting didn't have Chang Ting's idea of ​​being thorough in everything, he just said: "Clearly? It's my father who did it? No, we just need to be more filial to him in the future. I didn't expect him to write a letter asking Xi Niang to come and replace me. Thankfully, sister, you made the move, otherwise I won't have the face to meet Xi Niang when I wake up."

Chang Ting then spoke to comfort his younger sister, father, he didn't know when, he became so strange, and she didn't know if her choice was right, but... She wanted to try to go on.

She wants to prove to her father that she is qualified to be the head of the Weng family.

**

Back to the yamen, the moon is already in the middle of the sky.

Ah Cong was about to go out to buy a piece of tofu, and there was no one in the yamen. He waited until evening to make dinner, but no one came back. He began to worry, and wanted to find the young master, but he didn't know where the young master was going. .

Seeing his young master returning home on the moon, he immediately ran over and said happily, "Young master, you are back."

Cheng Jin just remembered that he was in a hurry to go out and forgot to notify Ah Cong: "Wait in a hurry, is there anything to eat?"

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Ah Cong hurriedly nodded, and then went to the stove to take out the warm dishes, fried tofu with scallions, fried tender tofu, a sauerkraut pancake and a vegetarian soup, obviously a vegetarian feast.

Although Ah Cong made delicious food, but Cheng Jin didn't have much appetite, so he ate some casually, and took Nie Xiaoqian to the study. He was eager to know what the doctor Qi had recruited in the underworld.

Nie Xiaoqian made some arrangements, and then said: "The imperial doctor Qi is not a strong character at all. He recruited him not long after he arrived in the underworld. His body was indeed brought out of the palace by the eldest princess. As for how to bring it, He said he wasn't conscious at the time, so he didn't know."

"It's not important? Let's go on." After all, the bottom of the palace has been dug into a sieve, so it really doesn't matter where it comes from.

Nie Xiaoqian continued on and said: "According to his account, he was neglected at the Imperial Medical Office and assigned the task of going to the eldest princess's mansion to see a doctor. The eldest princess married her son-in-law for a long time but had no children, so he first The first time I went to see a doctor, and what I saw was infertility."

Cheng Jin: ...

"Later, he found out that the son-in-law Chen Fan was suffering from a strange disease. The eldest princess begged him to extend the life of the son-in-law. At first, he said that he could do nothing, but? He then looked through the books of the imperial medical office and accidentally found the formula of the Xiantian pill. Danfang, he refined the Xiantian Pill with the help of the eldest princess."

Cheng Jin frowned: "This logic sounds pretty smooth, but? Why did he come to Wuzhou? Moreover, the main medicine of Xiantian Pill is Soul Inducing Grass, which grows by the Wangchuan River. Did he say how he got it?" of?"

Of course, the prefect also asked this question: "He said that there was a merchant in Wuzhou who had soul-inducing herbs in his home. He resigned and came to Wuzhou and even opened a medical office just to get in touch with this merchant. Get the soul-inducing grass."

"A merchant? A Yin-Yang merchant?" What kind of merchant is so capable of buying and selling Soul Grass.

Nie Xiaoqian showed a mysterious expression: "My lord, do you still remember He Zixiao? Before He's father died, he was in the business of medicinal materials."
