I Transmigrated Into a Novel and Became the Vicious Stepmother of Five Cute Babies Chapter 82 – 82 Can’t Forget

82 Can’t Forget
The magistrate hurriedly found an excuse for his loss of self-control, and finally dispelled Liu Wangshi’s doubts.

“She’s just a wild woman from a mountain village. Is she worth it for an old master like you to treat her so well? Moreover, didn’t you already give her sixty silver taels? That is already enough. Moreover, I don’t think she would want our meal, so why do you have to stick your warm face to the cold butt?”

Liu Wangshi went to get the ointment left by Mo Ruyue after she finished speaking, but she missed the county magistrate’s eyes that suddenly turned cold.

After Mo Ruyue finished treating the county magistrate’s wife, she immediately went deep into the mountains. This time, she didn’t hunt any tiger or bear, but she did manage to hunt two sika deers.

She had also replenished some herbs. Although she still had a lot in her interspace, she lacked a few of them at home. She could make use of the opportunity when she went hunting in the mountains to replenish them.

Now that Mo Ruyue and the babies had moved to the new house, the big young mule had also been brought back from Uncle Liu’s house. These few days, the babies had been feeding them grass and adding water. Soon, other than the big baby, even the smaller babies could get close and touch it.

Mo Ruyue’s life was back on track, but there were still people who couldn’t forget her, so much so that they were distracted during the trial a few times. If it wasn’t for the Grand Master’s help to smooth things over, there would have been an injustice.

Although the others didn’t know why the county magistrate was suddenly in a daze, there was one person who could see through his thoughts, and that was Constable Liao. However, he had been biding his time, waiting for the county magistrate to come and find him when he couldn’t hold back anymore.

Finally, one day, after the court was dismissed, the county magistrate called for Constable Liao.

“Constable Liao, please wait. I have something to tell you.”

His action of stopping Constable Liao made Constable Wang’s heart beat faster. He walked out slowly, hoping to eavesdrop on their conversation.

However, the magistrate walked straight to the backyard and Constable Liao followed behind him. Constable Wang had no choice but to turn back to look at his back with every step he took. He walked away unwillingly.

When they arrived at the study, the county magistrate sat behind his desk in a daze. He did not say anything, but he did not forget to ask Constable Liao to sit down.

After sitting in silence for a long time, the magistrate finally asked, “Constable Liao, you’re not going to ask me why I’ve called you over, and you’re not going to say anything?”

“This subordinate does not dare to guess master’s thoughts, so I can only wait for master to speak first. It is not that this subordinate is being disrespectful.”

Constable Liao’s words were watertight. He didn’t directly expose the county magistrate’s intentions, in case he felt that he had been easily seen through and flew into a rage out of humiliation.

“Sigh, besides you, I’m afraid no one else can understand my thoughts. It’s just that this matter… is indeed a little difficult to say.”

As the magistrate spoke, he observed Constable Liao’s expression carefully. He would not continue if the latter showed the slightest sign of hesitance.

“It’s our duty as subordinates to share master’s worries. As for what it is … I’m not a Dao protector. I don’t have the intention to judge. I’m just following orders.”

Constable Liao said indifferently. There was no embarrassment or feigned expression on his face. It was obvious that he was saying what he was thinking.

His attitude made the magistrate heave a sigh of relief. If Constable Liao had expressed his loyalty to him now, he would have to consider whether to use him or not.

“From what you’ve said, it seems that you already know why I’m looking for you?”

Magistrate Liu asked again. He had always felt that Constable Liao’s eyes were deep and sharp. Although his eyes were indifferent, they seemed to be able to point directly into people’s hearts.

“If master allows it, then this subordinate will make a bold guess. The thing that can make you worried is probably that Lady Qin.”

Since the county magistrate had asked directly, Constable Liao went along with the flow and made things clear.

“Constable Liao, you really understand my thoughts.”

The county Magistrate was not surprised at all by his answer. He muttered to himself for a moment before saying, “Since the first time I saw her, her every frown and smile has been lingering in front of me. Although we have only met a few times, I don’t know why the more I don’t think about it, the clearer and deeper that face becomes. It really makes me very annoyed.”

“Master, although Lady Qin is already married, she is now a widow. There is no law in our country that forbids a widow from remarrying. Moreover, she has excellent medical skills and is young and beautiful. It is normal for anyone to be attracted to her.”

Constable Liao spoke in an indifferent tone. He did not deliberately greet the magistrate, but every word he said seemed to touch the magistrate’s heart. It just so happened to tickle his itch, which made the magistrate very happy.

“Even though that’s the case, it may sound nice, but it may not be a good thing to do. That’s why I’ve been hesitating. Alas, I’ve made a fool of myself in front of you, Constable Liao.”

Magistrate Liu gave him another topic to talk about. Constable Liao was a smart man, so he should be able to understand what he wanted to do.

“This matter is not difficult, but now there is no excuse for master to see that Lady Qin again. I think that it is difficult for a woman to raise five children. If there is a chance to put down the burden, I think she would be happy to accept it.”

Constable Liao’s words were against his heart. He did not have many opportunities to interact with Mo Ruyue, but it was only a few times that he could sense that the woman was not simple. Especially that day when they went to invite her and after Constable Wang said some words to offend her, her extremely cold and sharp gaze did not seem like something that an ordinary woman from the mountains would have.

However, the magistrate was too engrossed in his work to listen to any advice. Constable Liao didn’t want to get himself into trouble either. He just had to do what the magistrate wanted. As for whether the magistrate would get what he wanted, it had nothing to do with him.

“Oh, do you have any other ways to let me see Lady Qin again, Constable Liao?”

Magistrate Liu’s eyes lit up as he asked.

If he was asked to do something like forcefully snatching women, he would not be able to do it. After all, although this County was far away from the Emperor, he also wanted to climb up in the future. If his reputation was ruined while he was in the lower levels, how could he climb up?

He was even thinking that if he could give a hint and let lady Qin take the initiative, it would be good. At that time, not only would it be a good story, but she would also be able to live a good life and wear gold and silver. She would live a rich and worry-free life. Wasn’t it better than her wasting her youth and beauty in the mountains now?

“This subordinate really has a way, but this method still needs your wife’s cooperation to be realized.”

Magistrate Liao’s words stunned him. He immediately shook his head and said, “I don’t want Madam to know about this matter for the time being. After all… It’s better to wait for Lady Qin to agree before going to tell her.”

At least the county magistrate knew that he had not handled this matter properly. He had treated his wife, but in the end, he had seen the doctor who had treated her. He would have a knot in his heart if this had happened to him.
