Chapter 80
Tu Muzhen, who was planning to speak, caught a glimpse of the handwriting on the bank note.

She closed her mouth immediately.

Wei Yue also saw the handwriting on the bank note.

Hey!
This Young Master Yuan is quite generous!

He didn't even ask how much the thing his cousin stole was worth, so he just took out 500 taels!
It seems that this household minister has quite a lot of money, even the juniors in the family are so generous!

Wei Yue subconsciously looked at Tu Muzhen.

Tu Muzhen didn't move at all, but the hand under the fat cat silently gestured towards Wei Yue.

Wei Yue understood and said lightly, "Why, Young Master Yuan thought that such a big thing could be settled just by apologizing and making compensation?"

Tu Muzhen:  …

No, that's not what she meant!

She obviously asked Wei Yue to accept the 500 taels of banknotes as soon as he saw a good deal!

After all, it's just an ordinary jade bracelet, and you can earn 300 taels by changing hands, which is even higher than the value of the jade bracelet itself.

Such a profitable business, why not do it?
But where did Wei Yue think of this, and he still seemed to be dissatisfied with the 500 taels of compensation?

His appetite must be too great, right? !

In fact, not only Tu Muzhen thought so, Yuan Lixin also thought so.

This person still thinks that 500 taels is not enough? !

It's not that Yuan Lixin looks down on Yongning City, but based on his understanding of Yongning City, it's amazing that there is a jade bracelet worth 200 taels in Yongning City!

For a moment, Yuan Lixin even wanted Cui Mingyuan to hand over the jade bracelet she robbed and give it back to the two people in front of her.

But he also knew that with Cui Mingyuan's temperament, she would rather destroy the jade bracelet that made her lose face, and it is impossible to return it to these two!

In desperation, Yuan Lixin had to take out another 200 tael bank note: "This brother misunderstood. I don't know this amount, is it enough to express our apology?"

Wei Yue: ...

Could it be that this son of the Minister of the Ministry of Households is actually taking advantage of him?
He just put on airs casually, but the other party took out 200 taels without hesitation? !

For a time, Wei Yue's heart was really sour.

He looked at Tu Muzhen again.

Tu Muzhen was afraid that Wei Yue would give the wrong idea again, and immediately nodded to Wei Yue with a solemn face.

Lord Wei, you can really accept it now!
She didn't believe that this young man surnamed Yuan was really that stupid, and he could add another bank note!
Perhaps because Tu Muzhen did express it clearly this time, Wei Yue finally opened his mouth and said:

"Since Mr. Yuan is so sincere, if we continue to care about it, it seems that we don't know what to do. Today, we will give Mr. Yuan a face. This matter is just wiped away!"

He took Yuan Lixin's 700 taels of silver note and released Cui Mingyuan by the way.

Cui Mingyuan rubbed her still painful shoulder, glared at Wei Yue, and then ran to the carriage with a smile on her face.

The veiled woman had already retreated into the carriage, but a maid-like woman appeared and helped Cui Mingyuan in.

"The mountains and rivers have met, I wonder if the two of you can keep your name taboo?" Yuan Lixin finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, and said coldly, "If there is a chance in the future, Yuan will definitely invite the two of them and have a good talk with them. Let's reminisce!!"

Looking at him like that, why did he want to invite Wei Yue and Tu Muzhen to a banquet?
Wei Yue looked at Yuan Lixin with a half-smile, and said, "Young Master Yuan, don't worry. You and I are both from the capital, and sooner or later we will meet again!"

I just hope that when Yuan Lixin sees him, he won't show a surprised expression!
Yuan Lixin was startled, and his expression gradually became solemn.

It turns out that the person in front of him is actually a person from the capital?

Then it is impossible for him not to have heard of the name of their Shangshu Mansion!

But since he knew their identities, this person dared to compete with them like this, it means that he is not afraid of their title of Shangshu!
This person's identity, I'm afraid it's also from a long history!
This time, my cousin, I'm afraid she really has provoked someone she shouldn't have provoked.

Yuan Lixin felt a little more jealous of Wei Yue in his heart.

He didn't dare to ask any more questions, and only gave Wei Yue a deep look: "If that's the case, then see you in the capital!"

Wei Yuechao smiled at Yuan Lixin, his face smiling like a flower.

However, the more Yuan Lixin looked at this smiling face, the more angry he became.

Pulling the reins in his hand, he turned the flatterer, and instructed the coachman next to him, "Let's go!"

As soon as the voice fell, Yuan Lixin was already riding his horse and whipping his whip, and took a step ahead.

The coachman quickly followed.

Seeing that these people were gone, the surrounding people who were affected by the situation began to curse, and the whole street became warm again.

Tu Muzhen saw that not far away, an old woman in patched clothes was bending over with difficulty, picking up the winter jujubes scattered on the ground one by one and putting them back in her basket.

It was just overturned by Yuan Lixin when he rode over. Most of the jujubes were not lightly dropped, and many of them were torn to pieces, so they might not sell very well.

Tu Muzhen looked a little unpleasant. He stepped forward to help the old woman pick up the dates, and said, "Mother-in-law, how did you sell the dates? I want them all."

Although most of these dates were broken, they didn't look good in appearance.

But it is definitely still edible, and it will not affect the taste of the dates.

The old woman was startled and waved her hands hastily: "No, no. Girl, all my dates have been broken, and I can't sell them."

"It's okay, your dates are good, you can eat them even if they are broken."

Tu Muzhen didn't talk nonsense with the old woman, she directly took out a piece of silver from her pocket and stuffed it into the old woman's hand.

"Girl, the old lady knows your kindness. But the money you gave is too much. My dates are not so valuable."

The old woman insisted on returning the broken silver to Tu Muzhen.

Of course, Tu Muzhen couldn't take the money back, so he only greeted Wei Yue and said, "Master Wei, can you help me bring these dates back?"

Wei Yue knew that Tu Muzhen wanted to help the old woman, and immediately smiled: "No problem! Miss Tu, just leave it to me."

The old woman's eyes were red, and she muttered to herself that she had met a good man.

Seeing that Tu Muzhen insisted on not taking back the money, she simply gave this basket of dates to Tu Muzhen.

Even so, Tu Muzhen must have given more money.

Tu Muzhen really likes this simple and easy-to-use basket.

If it wasn't for Wei Yue's disapproval, and the fact that his hands were fast, Tu Muzhen almost wanted to carry the basket on his back.

Seeing this, the other people around also became concerned, and wanted to come to the little girl Tu Muzhen to complain and see if they could get some benefits from Tu Muzhen.
