Chapter 117 Dig out the traitor
Cui Pu and Mu Jiaojiao finally breathed a sigh of relief after safely returning to Ge Lao Mansion.

It's just that the two of them went out early in the morning and said they would come back in the evening.It's only past noon, and the two of them have already arrived home!After Mrs. Cui found out, she called Mu Jiaojiao over to question her.Mu Jiaojiao didn't dare to hide anything, so he told all the things that happened outside.

Mrs. Cui was also angry after hearing this. "Princess Tangchang is so bold! We have already made our rejection attitude clear, but she still doesn't give up, and even came up with such a way to rob her! Does she really think that there is no one in our Cui family?"

"Agu, calm down, if you want to blame this matter, you can only blame Liu Lang, he is too good-looking." Mu Jiaojiao hurriedly persuaded.

Mrs. Cui couldn't help but burst out laughing. "Are you praising him or blaming him?"

"When I didn't marry him before, it was natural to praise him. But now that I'm married, and seeing the disadvantages of his appearance, it becomes a resentment." Mu Jiaojiao said honestly.

Madam Cui shook her head helplessly. "That's all. There is no princess in the new Tang Dynasty who is not arrogant and domineering. It's just that Princess Tang Chang is the first one who dares to rob even a noble man. I know about this, and I will be with you later. Uncle discuss it and see how to deal with it."

"Auntie just needs to inform Uncle about this matter. As for how to deal with it, forget it!" Mu Jiaojiao said.

Madam Cui raised her eyebrows. "Are you afraid?"

"The daughter-in-law just thinks that although the princess is domineering, she is not stupid. Since she can make such a move, it means that she has prepared for it. As long as uncle can't catch her exact clue, she will not plead guilty. The worst Under the circumstances, if she bites back, it will be even more detrimental to Uncle's reputation. What's more, even a little quarrel between the juniors is not the turn of the elders to intervene." Mu Jiaojiao said slowly.

"That's good. Since you said it was a quarrel between juniors, then I will treat it as a quarrel between juniors." Mrs. Cui nodded, determined to let the matter go.

Mu Jiaojiao got up quickly. "Daughter-in-law, thank you, aunt!"

Mrs. Cui looked at her with mixed emotions in her eyes. "You don't have to thank me. It's your own ability to escape from the Weiwang Mansion today. But whether you can do the same in the future depends entirely on your ability."

"My wife knows." Mu Jiaojiao nodded.

After waving her hand to make her retreat, Mrs. Cui turned around and went to Old Mrs. Cui.

Since Cui Yuan's leg recovered, Mrs. Cui's worship to Buddha has become more pious.I don't care about everything in the house, except for copying scriptures and reciting Buddha's name every day.

When Mrs. Cui came over, Mrs. Cui was still chanting scriptures.Mrs. Cui waited quietly at the side. After waiting for a meal, she saw Mrs. Cui put down her rosary and stood up with the maid's hand.

Madam Cui hurried forward to help her other hand.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law sat down, Mrs. Cui cleared her throat with a sip of tea, "Are you here again for Liu Lang's daughter-in-law?"

Mrs. Cui nodded, and said what happened today.

After listening to Mrs. Cui, she nodded with satisfaction: "Isn't this very good? Her performance is all within your expectations. It can be seen that she is indeed a smart girl who sees everything very clearly. You marry this daughter-in-law. Well worth it!"

"This daughter-in-law knows. It's just that these days, watching everything she does and every word she says, the daughter-in-law is still shocked." Madam Cui said.

"Why are you surprised? Just because she did everything just right, meeting all your expectations of her?" Mrs. Cui asked.

Madam Cui nodded.

Mrs. Cui laughed and said, "Liu Lang's daughter-in-law is indeed very wise and close to a monster, but so what? Hasn't she told you clearly about her every move, she has no desire for power, and she has no thoughts about everything about the Cui family. No matter what happens to her and Liu Lang in the future, they will not do anything harmful to the Cui family. Isn't that enough?"

"It's just that the daughter-in-law asked someone to go to Bingzhou to check her mother's family, but found that there was very little information and nothing to use. Looking at the Mu family, there are hundreds of people in that family, and none of them can get along with them." She is shoulder to shoulder. She is like a character who popped up suddenly. She can't test anything, and even her medical skills are self-taught. The more my daughter-in-law thinks about it, the more weird she feels. Combined with her performance, it becomes even more..."

"You're thinking too much!" Mrs. Cui interrupted her, "You don't care if she's weird or not, she's your daughter-in-law now, isn't she? What's weird about what she does at home? What's wrong with this person? Can there be any secrets? Since she refuses to tell now, there must be a reason why she can't tell. When the time is right, she will tell the truth. At that time, you will know that the so-called weirdness is just Because you can't see through, you're just thinking too much in a mess! There's nothing weird about things in this world!"

Mrs. Cui remained calm in front of her son and daughter-in-law.But when she came to Auntie, she was still scolded like a child.But Mrs. Cui's words were like enlightenment to her, and she woke up immediately.

"What Auntie said is that the daughter-in-law is indeed thinking too much now. The daughter-in-law doesn't think too much, and just watches how Liulang's daughter-in-law will act next."

"En." Mrs. Cui nodded, agreeing with her decision.

Mrs. Cui quickly said goodbye and left.

And when she left, Mrs. Cui frowned.

"With good medical skills and a seemingly stubborn but indifferent exquisite heart, what is the origin of this girl? What kind of family can give birth to such a daughter? I can't even think of it!"

When Mu Jiaojiao returned to the courtyard, he heard low sobs coming from the study.

Soon the door opened, and Cui Pu strode out.Xiao Qi'er cried and followed him out, and knelt down at his feet with a plop: "Lang Jun, please don't drive this maid away! This maid has been serving you by your side since she was eight years old. You serve to your heart's content, but you also do your best. I beg you to keep this maid for the sake of my servant's hard work for so many years without credit!"

"Get out of here before I change my mind! Otherwise, I will not just drive you out of Cui's residence!" Cui Pu gritted his teeth and drank coldly.

Seeing that he couldn't talk to him, Xiao Qi'er crawled to Mu Jiaojiao's side, pulled at the corner of her skirt and cried, "Lady, please persuade the gentleman to let the maidservant stay! What did the maidservant do wrong?" , just change it in the future!"

"Let you stay so that you can climb onto Lang Jun's bed when I'm not prepared?" Mu Jiaojiao asked.

Xiao Qi'er was taken aback.Let alone him, even Cui Pu was shocked by these words.

Mu Jiaojiao looked calm, and gently pulled out the hem of the skirt. "You and Mr. Lang grew up together, and he still has some affection for you, so he can't bear to expose you. But I'm different. Since you took the initiative to find me and come down, then I'll come and have a good fight with you break."

After all, she waved to Hongdou. "Hongdou, come and talk to her."

"Yes!" Hongdou responded quickly, ran over excitedly, pointed to Xiao Qi'er's nose and said, "You have been infatuated with your husband for many years, and you have tried to climb into your bed several times, but failed. Seeing now You hate and envy your husband when he marries a lady. You hate that your husband doesn’t understand your affection, and you’re also jealous that your lady is from an ordinary family, but she is cared for tenderly by him. So, while you’re talking bad about your lady in the mansion, On the one hand, he hooked up with people outside and released all the private affairs of the gentleman and his wife. You have betrayed the master by doing this. The gentleman wants to give you a face because of the years you have served him. , but you are shameless yourself, and you insist on tearing up this false face, revealing your bloody real face. Now, since this face is torn, you don't even think about leaving the house with the deed of sale. Follow Ren Yazi obediently for a while! Are you satisfied with the result?"

Xiao Qi'er's body softened, and she quickly climbed up to Cui Pu's side again: "Mr. Lang, don't believe what the lady says! She can't understand the servant girl who has been by your side for many years, and wants to get rid of the servant girl! The servant girl has not done anything. However, the sky can learn from the maidservant's loyalty to you!"

"She never said those words to me before." Cui Pu whispered.

Xiao Qi'er was taken aback.

"These are all things I've noticed myself."

Xiao Qi'er's lips turned white, and her body trembled slightly.

Cui Pu took a deep breath. "You said you were loyal to me. I did see it at the time. But since two years ago, your intentions have been impure. Do you still remember Xiao Liuer who was driven away? Although she did something wrong, but If you hadn't contributed to the flames, how could things have come to such a level? I endured it at the time. But I didn't expect that now you have made an inch and gave all my news to others! Is Princess Tang Chang a good friend? Or Do you think that when I become the princess's male favourite, you can also take a share of her pie?"

"Princess?" Xiao Qi'er was taken aback, "The person who wants to get news about you from the maidservant is Mr. Silang from Qinghe Cui Clan!"

Snapped!
Suddenly, there was a loud applause from Princess Tangchang's mansion.

When the maids outside heard the voice, they covered their faces with their hands in unison, showing pain on their faces, as if the person who was beaten was themselves.

Cui Jun knelt on the ground, his face was red and swollen from the beating but he didn't even dare to speak out.

"Princess, please calm down! Princess, please calm down! It is true that Cui did not make arrangements for this matter, but please rest assured, I have already arranged everything in the future, and I promise that you will not be involved, princess!"

"Do you think they can't guess if they can't be involved?" Princess Tang Chang said coldly, "Also, don't call yourself Cui anymore, do you deserve the surname Cui?"

Cui Jun lowered his head. "The princess taught me the lesson. The little one made a mistake, and I will never make such a mistake again. I ask the princess to trust the little one again!"

"You can deal with the matter at hand before we talk about it!" Princess Tang Chang said coldly.

Cui Jun nodded quickly. "Yes, little one, let's do it!"

After all, quickly turn around and leave.

Immediately, the corners of the lips of Princess Tang Chang inside and Cui Jun outside both twitched, revealing a hint of hatred.

And at the same time, seeing Xiao Qi'er being taken out, and her distraught figure disappearing from her eyes, Mu Jiaojiao turned her head, and softly uttered two words: "Disaster water."

"What did you say?" Cui Puyin asked tentatively.

"It's nothing!" Mu Jiaojiao quickly changed his words, "I was thinking, the lesson you taught that person last time didn't seem to be deep enough! Now, should we think of a better way to impress him completely?"
