The county magistrate stood up obediently.
Xuexue glanced at him and asked, "Are you here to solve the case, sir?"
"Yes! As soon as I entered the village, the village head told me Madam was here, so I came over to greet you."
The previous prefect had been dismissed by Long Rui, and Xuexue was aware of this, so seeing a new face as the county magistrate today was not surprising to her at all.
However, since the other party was an official in the area, it wouldn't be right to be too indifferent, some polite small talk was necessary.
Xue Ren, with a faint smile on his face, asked, "Sir, you came such a long way, you haven't had lunch yet, have you?"
Traveling from County Town to Mo Family Village takes four hours, and it was noon now. Calculating the time, the county magistrate should be hungry by now.
