Chapter 678: Help me convince her

Magistrate Li knew that she has to bring Yu Dong on her side but how? That woman was stubborn as a bull and did not budge even when she told her that she was willing to raise her salary to four silver taels as long as she was willing to agree to be the village head but the latter simply refused no matter what she said!         

    

" Oh so, it's Yu Dong who came up with the idea of this oil extraction," a new voice suddenly joined the two of them Li Meng was not surprised by the sudden visitor, she only turned to look at Qiao Sha who came to her office once again for no reason and sighed, " You are here again, don't you have any work to do, Marquis Qiao?"      

Magistrate Li was as calm as a cold cucumber but Madam Gu who has never met Marquis Qiao was on the edge of her seat. She was just a commoner who did not even see get an opportunity to see the Magistrate that often and now all of a sudden she was meeting with the top boss of the town! How can she be not startled?      

" Ma…Marquis Qiao, I am Village he—— No, I mean I am Madam Gu from the Big river village, it's good to see you, I hope your day is as brighter as the sun and the moon!"      

" My that's some really grand greeting," Qiao Sha walked inside Magistrate Li's office and then sat down on the small couch that was made from bamboo and cushion before crossing one leg over another as she looked at the woman sitting in front of her.      

Though she has known that the village head of the big river village was an idiot, she did not think that the latter was this foolish, a murderer was living under the same roof as her and yet she could not even catch her?

How carelessly non-observant was this woman?     

No wonder Li Meng refused to forgive her, the killing of mers could have been still be overlooked if this woman had solved the case on her own but the thing was clear that she was not the one who caught that murderer.      

Qiao Sha fought many battles when she was still young and was fighting in the army to prove her worth, she could easily tell a woman who has never fought with someone and one who was used to fighting every once in a while.      

With her left leg crossed over the right one, Qiao Sha turned to look at Li Meng who seemed to have understood her signal. She sighed and then turned to look at Madam Qiao who was nervously trembling on the floor while kowtowing in front of Qiao Sha and said, " I think you should go back for today, madam Gu. I will send one of my guards with the rewards to your village once I am done with reporting the case of missing mers to the Marquis."      

" And as punishment for hiding this case from the magistrate, you will have to pay ten silver taels which will be equally distributed among the families of the mers."      

Of course, this much money won't be enough, she will have to add a few taels in the compensation from her side as well.      

Li Meng was having a terrible headache, once this matter was known to her half-sister she will have a field trip, goodness knows how she will make fun of her once she finds out about this case in the capital.      

If possible Li Meng wouldn't even keep track of this case but since this was her fault as well, she will simply deal with the consequences as well instead of hiding it like a coward, if not then there will be no difference between her and the Ex Village head Gu.      

" Yes, Yes, I understand," Madam Gu already knew that she will have to pay some compensation to the villagers whose mers were killed before she came here after all she was not only the village head but also the sister of the murderer.     

It was good enough that she was not being dragged into the investigation!      

Once Madam Gu left, Qiao Sha turned her attention to the vat of oil that the latter has brought with her. She raised a hand and then dipped her finger in the oil coating a layer of the silky oil on her forefinger.      

" Hey, what are you doing? Don't ruin the precious oil just to satisfy your curiosity!" Li Meng immediately stopped Qiao Sha but the latter was quicker than her.      

With her quick footwork, Qiao Shao dodged Li Meng's hands and then sniffed the oil that was sticking to her finger and commented, " There is no smell and if not for its silky and sticky texture I would have thought that it was water. Yu Dong really has surpassed herself."     

"Do you know her?" Li Meng asked with a confused look on her face as she looked at Qiao Sha who grinned at the latter and said,  "Who do you think I am? Of course, I will know such a talented woman."

Though Qiao Sha was upset over the fact that Yu Dong was on friendly terms with Jiang Fenhua, she has to admit that the latter was really skilled. Yu Dong's skills were enough to ignore such a small thing and Jiang Fenhua was staying put these days as well.      

Li Meng narrowed her eyes she, of course, did not believe what Qiao Sha was saying but she still sighed and asked, " If so can you help me convincer her to become the village head of the big river village? I really need that woman to help me raise the standard of living in that village."      

If she had any other choice she would have never asked for Qiao Sha's help even though the woman was really strong, her emotional range was really ——something to be worried about.      

But since the latter said that she knew Yu Dong, she was willing to put her trust in her.      

"I can try but in exchange," Qiao Sha paused causing Li Meng to gulp, the latter thought that she will ask for something really major but instead what Qiao Sha asked for was ——     

" Can you ask your chef to use this oil to cook some stir-fried noodles?"          

    

Li Meng: "....." No wonder she cannot win the hearts of either of her husbands.
