Chapter 117: Grinding Soybeans

In the patrol camp.

"General, we've found out where little An is," Liu Yun said to Ji Cheng Kang.

Ji Cheng Kang was delighted. "Where is he?"

Liu Yun said awkwardly, "He sneaked into the new County Yamen in the middle of the night."

Ji Cheng Kang frowned and thought aloud, "Why would he do that?"

Liu Yun permitted a wry smile and said, "I don't think he means any harm, he just wanted to have a look because he has been curious about this new county magistrate." Since ancient times, civil officials and military officers didn't get along well. Ji Cheng Kang was framed by some scheming civil officials in the capital city and he had to left the capital city as a self-protection mechanism. Ji Yun An was brought up by Ji Cheng Kang in the military camp since he was a child, therefore, he turned his nose up at those civil officials who knew nothing but useless official formalities.

Liu Yun found that a few people in the military camp talked about the new county magistrate. Several soldiers said that they thought the new county magistrate wouldn't be a good official considering he spent a fortune on the title, and chances were he would leave no stone unturned to extort money from the people. Ji Yun An was filled with righteous indignation after he heard that, he immediately said that he would sound the new county magistrate out and give him a warning.

Ji Yun An had expressed to Liu Yun that he wanted to investigate this new county order. However, Liu Yun did not take it seriously, he thought Ji Yun An just said that on an impulse.

Ji Cheng Kang frowned and said, "He's getting more and more reckless now. How's he now anyways?"

Liu Yun frowned and said, "He was caught by a Bio in the county magistrate's family, and now the Bio is ordering him around as a punishment."

"Nonsense," said Ji Cheng Kang with a darkened expression.

Liu Yun smiled bitterly and said, "I'm sure little An didn't mean to provoke that Bio child."

"Is he all right though?" Ji Cheng Kang asked.

Liu Yun nodded and said, "Yes, no one has beaten him up or anything."

Ji Cheng Kang nodded as if deep in thought and said, "If he is fine, just leave there as a punishment, he needs to learn. This kid runs rampant now, it's good. It's good that there's someone who is teaching him a lesson."

Liu Yun nodded and said, "I heard that Bio child shows no mercy in ordering little An around."

"He deserves that. Is there any updates from the new county magistrate?" Ji Cheng Kang asked.

"He invited a few carpenters and blacksmiths to his house just the other day. I don't know what exactly he is up to. Maybe he wants to build some furniture, tables and chairs. After the previous county magistrate was kicked out, most furniture in the house was stolen," Liu Yun said.

Ji Cheng Kang smiled bitterly and said, "That makes sense. Honestly, that guy should have asked around more before he came to Sha County! He found himself a challenging job!"

......

Chen Xiao Mai nibbled at the buns and looked at Ji Yun An, "Hey, do you know you have been at this place for five days now. It seems that no one is looking for you. I think your family is secretly happy that you have run away."

Ji Yun An said unhappily: "That's not the case."

Chen Xiao Mai pursed his lips and said, "That just is the case, you must have been unruly when you were home, so your parents don't want to see you anymore. If you were as good as me, your family would look for you like crazy, they would turn the entire county upside down for you."
