Master Gu was also tired today and was too lazy to teach the two of them a lesson.

"and many more."

Chun Qu picked up a piece of silver from the ground where Lady Gu had fallen. The surface of the silver was very smooth, without any bite marks, and there was an official seal engraved on the bottom.

Madam Gu was suddenly startled, and she went up to grab it, "Give it back to me, that's mine."

The money was exchanged back and forth in Chun Qu's hands, just not to let Lady Gu touch it.

What was different from the past was that Chun Qu's voice was a little more startled, "This is official money, where did you, a little girl, get it from?"

Madam Gu gritted her teeth and said angrily: "Can you care?"

Chun Qu looked at Master Gu beside him. Their expressions were exactly the same as that of shock, and they were slightly worried.

Master Gu reacted first and took Miss Gu's hand, "Tell me the truth, where did you get this money? Did you steal it?"

Master Gu's heart is broken. His daughter was very good before, but since she came to Dessert House, she has become more and more ignorant. She has gotten better these days, but she didn't expect to learn how to steal money?

Master Gu doesn't care about the family, but he knows how tightly his mother-in-law controls money. It's impossible for her to give her daughter such a large sum of money.

It can only be stolen.

Lady Gu swallowed, her eyes kept rolling, and she whispered, "I didn't steal it, I saved it."

"Pa..." Master Gu slapped her angrily, "All your money is with your mother. Tell me how you saved so much money? Why don't you tell the truth?"

Miss Gu bit her lower lip, "I saved it, I didn't steal it."

"you?"

A double image appeared in front of Master Gu's eyes. He staggered twice, but Chun Qu, who was closest to him, dodged away.

Gurong quickly supported him, "Dad, how are you?"

Madam Fang said: "Spring is coming, go and ask for a doctor."

"No, I'm fine." Master Gu waved his hand and refused to call the doctor no matter what. Stealing money was a big deal, and if word spread, his daughter's reputation would be completely lost.

The group moved from the store to Jiang Miao's yard.

Jiang Miao played with the silver ingot, but her eyes fell on the little lady Gu. Her face was swollen, and the two big slap marks were particularly obvious. When she caught her gaze, she quickly lowered her head.

"It's normal for children to be young and ignorant." Jiang Miao comforted Master Gu with a smile.

Master Gu bent even lower, "My boss, this child is spoiled by her mother. I think she is so unsatisfied that I might as well let her go home and forget about the work in the store."

"Dad." Miss Gu became anxious. If she couldn't go to the store, wouldn't it be impossible for any young man to find her if he looked for her?

Jiang Miao was a little hesitant at first, but when Mrs. Gu called her out like that, her heart suddenly hardened.

"Since Master Gu said so, let me listen to you. I have seen how hard you have been teaching these days. From now on, your monthly salary will be one hundred cents more, and Gu Rong's will be fifty cents more. Just a little bit of my thoughts.”

Gu Ying's monthly salary was 150 cash, and Jiang Miao suddenly gave the Gu family and his son an increase of [-] cash. The family was not too much at a loss, and even made a profit.

Master Gu's eyes turned red, knowing that they were trying to treat them well. They were such a good boss, but what they did was not humane.

Master Gu felt ashamed and ashamed, and knelt down, "Thank you, my boss."

"Dad..." Miss Gu was unwilling to give in and looked at him with wide eyes.

Master Gu scolded: "Shut up. You have done such a shameful thing. Do you still want to stay? You should be grateful if your employer doesn't send you to the government. You know what it is to steal your employer's money." Well, if it’s serious, you’ll be exiled.”

Master Gu stared at her with hatred.Mrs. Gu was so frightened by his words that she fell to the ground. She didn't want any young master or any wages.

"Gu Ying, do you still remember what the young man who gave you money looks like?" Jiang Miao suddenly asked.

Gu Rong kicked his sister, "What is your boss asking you?"

Gu Ying reacted and sniffed, "He's very good-looking. I've never seen such a good-looking man, even better-looking than my boss's fiancé."

Her eyes softened a lot as she spoke.

The first thing Jiang Miao thought of as a more handsome man than Luo Tingye was King Yuzhang who had just arrived in Qingzhou.

But shouldn't he be with Magistrate Wang?
Why did you go to the dessert shop to buy snacks?

Master Gu was furious, "What's the use of being good-looking? I think you're just fascinated by others."

Gu Ying lowered her head in grievance.

Jiang Miao said: "It's getting late. Madam Gu is still waiting for you to eat. I won't keep you here."

Master Gu was grateful and left with his son and daughter.

Madam Huang also left wisely.

Madam Fang stayed until the end, "What should I do with the money?"

"Just remember it first. When that man comes next time, return the remaining money to him. Dessert House can't do such stupid things, let alone have stupid accounts."

"Yes."

Madam Fang also left, but she didn't leave empty-handed. Before leaving, Jiang Miao brought her a leg of lamb.

In the evening, the governor's office held a banquet, and officials of all sizes came.

After drinking for three rounds, King Yuzhang excused himself to being tired and went back to his room to rest.

With King Yuzhang away, the others lost interest in eating and drinking, and they dispersed soon after.

Cao Shaoqing of Sinong Temple caught up with Magistrate Wang who was about to leave, and pulled him to talk. However, Magistrate Wang had been guarding the wheat fields in the countryside. He knew more about the new wheat than anyone else.

It was only at the end of the night that Magistrate Wang found a reason to get away, got into the carriage and returned to the county government office.

"Sir." Wang Sanhu greeted him.

Magistrate Wang raised his hand to interrupt him and glanced outside the county government office from the corner of his eye.

Wang Sanhu leaned out half of his body, and suddenly saw a figure in the corner. His heart trembled, and he turned to Magistrate Wang and nodded.

The two moved to the study room.

"Sir, in one afternoon, there were many unfamiliar faces in Qingzhou City. There were also people who were specifically staring at the county government. I guess there were also people staring at the mansions of several adults in the Governor's Mansion. Who could have such great ability and still be like this? flagrant?"

Although the other party has been staring in the dark, even the people in the county government found that someone was staring at them. This was no different from being public.

Magistrate Wang drank a cup of tea and his drunkenness dissipated a lot. He wiped the corners of his mouth and said, "Don't think about it. It was most likely King Yuzhang who did it."

"King Yuzhang, why did he do this?"

County Magistrate Wang was confused for a moment, "King Yuzhang never received any important errands when he was in the capital. Now he is suddenly appointed as an imperial envoy by His Majesty. There must be something wrong. No matter what his purpose is, it makes people alert to this. Don’t let him find any clues about that person.”
