Chapter 131 I Want to Divorce His Wife

Mu Jiaojiao's words shocked the fifteenth lady greatly.Then on the way back, she didn't pester Mu Jiaojiao to talk anymore, but concentrated on thinking.

Back home, the two said goodbye at the hanging flower gate.The fifteenth lady returned to her residence, while Mu Jiaojiao walked slowly towards her and Cui Pu's yard.

As soon as the front foot crossed the threshold, Cui Pu jumped over without wanting to face him.His pretty face was full of smiles, his brows and eyes were full of joy, and he took the initiative to take her hand with one hand. "Come with me!"

Mu Jiaojiao didn't know why, so he could only trot into the house with him.

After entering the room, she saw a pile of gold leaves on the table.At a cursory glance, there should be no less than twenty pieces.

"These are all yours?" Mu Jiaojiao whispered in surprise.

"I earned it!" Cui Pu raised his chin proudly.

"Really? How did you earn it?"

"Selling medicine!" Cui Pu said, "Before leaving the house, didn't you stuff a bunch of messy pills in my purse? When I met them outside, they couldn't take their eyes off those things. Ask me to give it to them. How could I agree? Just let them spend money to buy it, and at least earn you a hard fee, right? They couldn’t persuade me, so they had to agree.”

"But, those few medicines can't be sold for so much money, right?" Mu Jiaojiao was still puzzled.

"Originally those medicines were not worth the price, but I thought of a way." Cui Pu looked mysterious.

Mu Jiaojiao was not ashamed to ask. "What method?"

"I'll let them bid!"

Then Mu Jiaojiao understood.These dudes are really a bunch of rich and idle people.That's all she could say.

People in officialdom are fighting for face, and people in business are also fighting for face.Even these noble sons who have nothing to do are fighting to the death for the sake of face.And the easiest and most effective way to decorate yourself is to spend money.

She could almost imagine the situation where those nobles were desperately spending money for one or two ordinary medicines.Although she didn't see it with her own eyes, did she still rarely see such scenes before?

"How about it, am I amazing?" Cui Pu put his face in front of her, looking like a child offering a treasure to an adult, with a face full of compliments, praise me, praise me!

Mu Jiaojiao nodded obediently. "You are indeed very powerful. You can sell so much money with just a few pills, so you must have put a lot of effort into it!"

"Hey, not much actually. I can't understand the virtues of those guys. Back then, they smashed even more for those little ladies in Pingkangfang! Today I just teased them a few words, and they got hotheaded and didn't want anything. I don’t care.” Cui Pu was so proud that the corners of his mouth almost went behind his ears, “It’s just that the medicine this time is too ordinary, next time you can change me to something better, I promise to make more money return!"

"Okay!" Mu Jiaojiao still nodded.

Cui Pu became more and more proud when he heard this.

Hongdou couldn't stand it any longer, so she came forward with a smile on her face: "Mr. Lang is so good. He only went out for a day, and he came back with so much money. Mr. Ge and his wife will be very happy when they find out, right? The servant girl gave the concubine and the others today. Cooked a dish, and got a lot of rewards from them. It's just that the maidservant is ignorant and doesn't know how much those things are worth, so I asked Mr. Wang to help me in detail."

As he spoke, he untied a small bundle and dumped the contents on the table.

When Cui Pu saw it, the smile on his face disappeared.

There are at least a dozen pieces of gold hairpins, gold bracelets, gold earrings, etc., each of which is not light in weight and extremely exquisite in workmanship.The price of one piece will not be lower than five or six guan.Plus that crystal clear jade pendant...

"It turns out that you earn more than me. Then why didn't you say it just now?"

"This is what they rewarded Hongdou, what does it have to do with me?" Mu Jiaojiao said in a low voice, and cast a cold glance at Hongdou, "Why don't you pack up quickly?"

Hongdou sticks out her tongue, then quickly wraps up the thing and carries it down.

But she didn't know that Cui Pu felt even more uncomfortable when she said these words - one of her girls got much more rewards than him after going out for a day!How can this make him live?
His man's pride was badly wounded again.

"Forget it, don't give me those precious medicinal materials. You should keep them for yourself, and you should be able to make more money." Cui Pu muffled.

"It doesn't matter. Now I have a lot of pills here, what's the point if you take some to play with? It would be nice if you can earn some pocket money." Mu Jiaojiao said indifferently.

"I don't want to exchange the things you made for pocket money! These are all yours!" Cui Pu became even more angry, and pushed all the gold leaves to her.

Mu Jiaojiao looked at him quietly. "Did you forget where you got the pocket money for going out these few times?"

"I..." Cui Pu froze, endless aggrievedness welling up in his heart again.

"Mu Jiaojiao, I have something to ask you, can you answer me honestly?" He raised his head and stared straight at Mu Jiaojiao.

Mu Jiaojiao's heart shuddered at the sight, and she didn't feel plastic surgery. "you say."

"Why did you choose to marry me in the first place?"

Mu Jiaojiao was slightly taken aback.Cui Pu said: "With your ability and your intelligence, it is too easy for you to marry someone who is much better than me. Don't say that your merchant's marriage with the Cui family is a high-ranking nonsense. I still don’t know who you are? You don’t care about sect opinions at all, and you never cared about the sayings that you are high-ranking or not!”

"You're right." Mu Jiaojiao nodded, "I chose to marry you for a reason."

She really has it!

"What?" Cui Pu asked hurriedly.As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he felt his heart beating violently, and his breathing was so rapid that he began to lose control of his hands and feet.

"There are only two types of men in this world that I would marry." Mu Jiaojiao said softly.

"Which two?" Cui Pu noticed that his voice was visibly trembling.

Mu Jiaojiao's face was calm, and he said word by word: "One kind, overwhelms me in ability, and makes me willingly worship at his feet. And the other..." Her eyes swept across his face, "It's the long-term It must be pleasing to the eye, so that I can happily raise him just by looking at him."

At the end, she added three more words - "forever."

Cui Pu's mind suddenly went blank.

"Then which one do I belong to?" He asked subconsciously.

"The second."

……

There was a moment of stagnation in the room.

"What do you think I belong to?" Cui Pu asked again after a while.

"The second."

"You! You, you, you..." Cui Pu finally came to his senses, his eyes widened immediately, and he shook his hand, trying to point at Mu Jiaojiao's nose, "Since you like good-looking men, why don't you marry the Qiu family?" That kid? Why don't you marry Wei Wang's son? They are much prettier than me!"

"Didn't I say it earlier, I have already agreed to uncle." Mu Jiaojiao was still so calm.

Cui Pu couldn't calm down anyhow.

"You are lying! You woman, you are the most cunning and shameless, what do you know about a gentleman's promise? You are clearly lying, you will only pursue what is beneficial to you, and you will not keep any promises! I don't believe it You won't believe it to death!"

"Well, keeping your promise is only one of the reasons. The most important thing is because I think you are the most suitable for me. Although Qiu Langjun and Wei Wang's son are born better than you, I think they are worse than you." You are pleasing to the eye. My husband is going to live with me for the rest of my life, so of course I have to choose one that makes me look comfortable and makes me want to see the old forever.”

……

Another long period of peace.

Then, Cui Pu suddenly let out another scream.

"Mu Jiaojiao! You, you bully! You bully people too much!" He cried out in tears, "I can't stand you anymore, I don't want to be picked and picked by you, I want to divorce my wife! I don't want you anymore!"

After saying that, he turned around, raised his feet and ran out.

Looking at the back of him leaving in a hurry, Mu Jiaojiao sighed helplessly.

Hongdou stayed outside all the time, listening to all the words of the two of them.Seeing that Cui Pu ran away, she walked in quietly, and saw Mu Jiaojiao had a peaceful face, but her eyes were still fixed on the direction Cui Pu left, and there was a trace of regret on her face.

"Lady, the servant girl is wrong." She knelt down in front of Mu Jiaojiao.

Mu Jiaojiao regained consciousness. "What did you do wrong again?"

"The servant girl shouldn't have provoked the gentleman on purpose. If the maidservant hadn't done such a thing on purpose, the gentleman would not have asked such a question suddenly, and you and the gentleman would not have had such a trouble."

"These have nothing to do with you. He will know about this matter sooner or later, so it's good to let him know now." Mu Jiaojiao said lightly, "The sooner you know, the earlier you can accept the reality. In case he knows later, his reaction will be worse Big, that's more difficult."

"Miss?" Hong Dou was taken aback, "Lang Jun just said...won't you stop him?"

"What did you stop him for? He just went out to relax, and someone will send him back soon." Mu Jiaojiao said calmly, "Don't we have some oranges in the kitchen? You can make some oranges stuffed with crabs." , and send it to each room. Make two more for Mr. Lang, so that he can eat and vent his anger later.”
