Why not report to the official

"What? That man named Meng used to be your housekeeper?" Xing Wu looked at Si Qing in shock.

Si Qing nodded slowly: "Si Jinbai, go and lead the ox cart to the back. Don't stand here. Let's go in and talk."

"Okay, grandma." Si Jinbai then realized that hearing the oxcart at the entrance of Shanhaiju would somewhat affect the entry and exit of diners.

He quickly took the bullock cart and went around to settle down behind.

Si Qing took Xing Wu and Li Daya into Shanhaiju.

When Liu Dali saw that his aunt was coming, he quickly greeted him happily: "Auntie, are you here?"

Si Qing nodded and said to Li Daya: "Send your luggage to the backyard and tell Mrs. Wu that I want to greet the guests and ask her to cook more dishes."

After calling Li Daya away, Si Qing took Xing Wu and walked straight to the second floor: "Liu Dali, Mr. Xing and I are going to Yunsheng Pavilion. Next, the guests don't need to go to Yunsheng Pavilion."

"Okay, grandma." Liu Dali shouted in response.

Watching Si Qing take Xing Wu to the second floor, he hurriedly ran to the counter and said to He Changfeng: "Shopkeeper, Auntie Gang is here, and she also brought Mr. Xing up to the second floor. I looked at Auntie and she seemed to be in a mood.

not good."

"Ah? The young master's family is here?" A table of diners had just come over to pay. He Changfeng was busy collecting cash and didn't even notice Si Qing entering Shanhaiju.

When I heard Liu Dali saying that Si Qing was in a bad mood, I hurriedly wanted to go to the second floor to take a look.

But Liu Dali pulled him back: "Shopkeeper, my aunt is still bringing Mr. Xing with her. Maybe she has something to say. Will you disturb them if you go?"

After He Changfeng heard this, he thought about it and felt that it made sense, so he gave up going to the second floor and only waited to take a look while delivering food to Si Qing.

After Si Qing took Xing Wu into Yunsheng Pavilion, he closed the door and asked him directly: "Has the man surnamed Meng been imprisoned?"

At this moment, Xing Wu was feeling a refreshing breath lingering all over his body. His whole body was so comfortable that he couldn't help but close his eyes and was about to let out a sigh of relief.

Si Qing's milky voice and sweet words came to my ears.

Xing Wu quickly opened his eyes and replied: "No, the man named Meng is not in Yang County, but in Jinzhou. If you want to arrest him, you need the consent of the Jinzhou magistrate."

When Si Qing heard that Guanjie Meng was not in Yang County, but in Jinzhou, he couldn't help but narrowed his eyes: "Did the prefect of Jinzhou agree?"

Xing Wu shook his head depressedly: "There is no reply from the prefect. The prefect is Cao Zhoumu's minions. My brother-in-law has offended Cao Zhoumu. Cao Zhoumu's minions will not easily facilitate us in this matter."

Si Qing couldn't help being disappointed when he heard this.

If we can't catch him now, we probably won't be able to catch him in the future. Shopkeeper Zhang has been arrested for so long, maybe Butler Meng has received the news and escaped.

Seeing the disappointment on Si Qing's face, Xing Wu couldn't help but ask Si Qing: "That man surnamed Meng was really your housekeeper?"

"Yes." Si Qing nodded and said calmly: "The current Yuelai Restaurant is actually my family's property. It's just that when I was young and didn't know what the family's property contained, he took the opportunity to take away my family's property. I

I only found out about it when I met my father’s old friend not long ago.”

After hearing this, Xing Wu's face suddenly became a little ugly: "There are still such audacious slaves in this world. They dare to run away with their master's property and openly take it as their own. Why didn't you report it to the official at that time?

?”

Si Qing shook his head: "I was only four years old at that time, how could I know how to report to the official?"

"That's true."
