Chapter 279

"Is he going to kill the county?" Cui Pu pointed at himself.

Qu Sanlang quickly waved his hand: "I never promised him this matter, he has always been wishful thinking. You ignore him, and I will persuade him to leave."

He hurriedly got up and went out, but that person had already rushed in.

Qu Sanlang hurried forward.But before he could speak, someone threw him away, and then rushed to Cui Pu in a mighty manner: "Did you take my jade comb?"

Cui Pu asked back, "How much did you pay for that young man looking at the jade comb?"

"What does that have to do with you? I'm here just to tell you——I've taken a fancy to that jade comb a long time ago, and it's mine! It's just because the surnamed Qu said that they want to use it as a ship-building treasure. Put it on the boat for a few days, then give it to me, I didn’t take it for the time being. Now I don’t care how much money you paid, you take the money back, and the jade comb belongs to me!”

The young man was only about twenty years old, his eyes were full of vigor, but his whole body was a bit more hostile. He grinned his teeth when he spoke, and waved his hands in mid-air, as if he would Fist waved over.

When Qu Sanlang saw this, his expression changed.

"Huo Wu, don't mess around! Do you know who this is in front of you?"

"Forget it!" Cui Pu said, "Since this gentleman believes that the jade comb belongs to him, then give it to him! A gentleman does not take what others like. Although I am not a gentleman, I don't want my wife to take this comb." Take the cursed comb." Cui Pu interrupted him, then smiled at Mu Jiaojiao, "Miss, you must be thinking the same way, right?"

Mu Jiaojiao nodded. "If there is no comb, it will be gone. I don't need a comb."

Cui Pu laughed and said, "We've been out shopping for a long time today, are you tired? Well, let's find an inn to rest, but don't tire my daughter!"

"Okay!" Mu Jiaojiao nodded with a smile.

The two were talking, and then they got up and walked out hand in hand.

Seeing this, Qu Sanlang became even more anxious. "Cui Xianzun, Mrs. Xianzun, both of you, please stay!"

Cui Pu smiled at him: "Don't worry, Mr. Qu Sanlang, the county knows your good intentions, and we don't blame you. Hurry up and coax this little brother, we have already bought what we want on the boat today. something."

Hearing this, Qu Sanlang's legs went numb, and he suddenly felt that his calves were heavy, and he couldn't move at all.

Cui Pu smiled at the gentleman who rushed in again, and helped Mu Jiaojiao to leave.

Seeing them give up so easily, the man couldn't help scratching his head: "Why did they just leave? Don't even argue with me!"

"What are their identities, how could they quarrel with you? Isn't this self-defeating?" Qu Sanlang scolded, "I'm really mad at me, do you know that you have caused me misfortune today!"

The man scratched his head again: "But you promised to give me that comb!"

"At this time and at another time, now that the wife of the magistrate wants it, even if the comb is in your hands, your father will ask you to take it out and give it to the madam of the magistrate!" Qu Sanlang said weakly.

"He dares!" Unexpectedly, the man's face turned dark immediately, "If it is in my hands, it is my thing, and no one is allowed to steal it! Besides, I promised Miss Zhu that I will definitely give this comb to you. Give it to her. If I don't take it, she will never talk to me again!"

"Don't worry, even if you take it, she won't pay you much attention." Qu Sanlang said angrily, and shook his hands, "Now you can keep this comb and play with it, I don't want it anymore!" So he went out quickly and went to ask his elders for advice.

Cui Pu and Mu Jiaojiao left the restaurant, and there was a moment of silence between them.

It was still early in the day, they didn't go directly to the inn, but found a nearby restaurant. Cui Pufa picked up the most expensive dishes and ordered a table full of them, and he still hadn't finished venting his anger.

Mu Jiaojiao also sighed quietly: "Looking at the nervous expression of that gentleman just now, he should have given that jade comb to his sweetheart, right?"

"No wonder! He clearly intends to use it to please a young woman in a brothel!" Cui Pu snorted coldly.

"Oh?" Mu Jiaojiao nodded, "It seems that Cui Xianzun knows the psychology of this kind of person like the back of his hand!"

"Ah, my lady, I was wrong!" Cui Pu reacted immediately, and quickly grabbed her hand, "That's all in the past, haven't I changed everything? Now I only like you, all my good things Only for you, everyone else stands aside!"

"Okay, I don't mean anything else." Mu Jiaojiao smiled lightly, "I just want to tell you - since this is going to be a little lady's favorite soon, I won't miss it anymore. And As you said, it’s for the girls in the brothel, so I don’t want it. My father is also a person who often walks outside. I’ve seen a lot of these exquisite things since I was a child. If you don’t, you’ll be angry.”

"Of course I know you won't. It's just that I feel that I'm really useless. I managed to get some money and wanted to make you happy, but it ended up like this. In fact, the person I'm really angry with is myself!" Cui Pu muffled. .

"If you really want to make me happy, that's easy. Think about it later, and find a better jade comb for me?"

"That's right!" Cui Pu suddenly realized, and nodded quickly, "You are right, there are more than one jade comb in this world, why should I be obsessed with this one? With a little power, wouldn't it be easy to get you a better jade comb?"

After all, he felt completely relieved, and hurriedly dragged Mu Jiaojiao to eat.

Naturally, they didn't finish the table.The rest was rewarded to Hongdou and the others, and they all feasted on it.

After eating, the two of them strolled around the ferry again.Because there are sea ships coming back from Fanbang berthing here all the year round, selling some imported goods from time to time, so a market has gradually formed here at the ferry, and there are all kinds of teahouses and restaurants nearby.Of course, shops selling all kinds of weird gadgets abound.

For the next half a day, Cui Pu and Mu Jiaojiao kept shuttling through these shops and gained a lot.

After walking outside for a long time, when it got dark and returned to the inn, the two had just sat down and had a big meeting when a large group of people came to the door.

"Cui Xianzun, my son is not sensible. I contradicted you today. I have already taught him a lesson. Please don't be angry!" A tall and mighty man walked into the door and knelt down in front of Cui Pu without saying a word. .

Then two more people came forward and knelt down.Cui Pu took a look and found that one of them was Qu Sanlang whom he had met today.And the middle-aged man kneeling beside him looks somewhat similar to him, he should be Master Qu who has a good relationship with Wei Zhuang.

I had expected that this group of people would definitely come to apologize to him.But he was flattered to find him so quickly, and to make such a big fight from the beginning.

Cui Pu secretly rejoiced that he was lucky enough to enter the door, so he asked someone to help Mu Jiaojiao to rest at the back.Otherwise, what if this sudden situation frightens her?
"This county has already figured out the cause and effect of this matter, and it is not your fault. If I had known that the jade comb had been owned, this county would never have asked for it. Now, everyone will treat it as nothing. It happened, the county won't pursue it any further." He said indifferently.

It's not that he doesn't want to attack them.It's just that Mu Jiaojiao is right, for a jade comb that will soon become the possession of a brothel woman, why would he lose his temper with these people?That's too much for the price of his county magistrate.

By the way, seeing Mu Jiaojiao's belly getting bigger day by day, and the little baby in his belly interacting with them more and more, his heart has already turned into a puddle of water.Now, as long as it is something that can accumulate virtue and pray for his wife and daughter, he is willing to do it, just in exchange for the safety of the mother and daughter five months later.

So he didn't want to pursue the trivial matter in front of him.

These two people have also heard about Cui Pu's true colors.But seeing him so tolerant and generous today, both of them were flattered.

Not only that.After they admitted their mistakes, Cui Pu invited them to get up. Everyone had tea and laughed, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

Master Qu was very moved, and before leaving, he offered a box: "Cui Xianzun, here are some gadgets brought back from Dongying this time. They are not worth a lot of money, so let's treat it as a play for my wife!"

Master Wan, who came to make amends for his son, also hurriedly sent a bigger box: "This is an apology from a certain generation of puppies, please accept it with a smile from Cui Xianzun."

Cui Pu took it over and looked at it, then picked out the jade comb inside: "The county has collected everything else, but this jade comb...Master Wan, you should take it back and return it to your son! You are young and romantic, for a brothel It's not uncommon for a woman to spend a lot of trouble, I just hope that he will be more rational next time he encounters this kind of thing, and don't yell as soon as he comes up, he will turn into rudeness if he is reasonable."

Master Wan quickly picked up the jade comb. "Thank you Cui Xianzun for your magnanimity, I will remember it! Today I will go back and teach him a lesson so that he can remember well!"

When a father wants to teach his son a lesson, he has no right to intervene.Cui Pu just nodded: "In this case, please go back, the county is tired and needs to rest."

"Cui Xianzun, please rest well, and we will come to pay our respects tomorrow." Master Wan and Master Qu and their son hurriedly said.

That night, Cui Pu slept fairly well.

When he woke up early the next morning, he stretched himself, and then took Mu Jiaojiao to walk outside on the street to exercise.

However, within a few steps, he heard someone say——

"Have you heard? Yesterday Mr. Wan didn't know what he did wrong. He was held down by Master Wan for a good beating, and he beat him to death!"

Cui Pu's heart sank suddenly.He quickly exchanged a look with Mu Jiaojiao, and immediately went to inquire.

But before he could step forward, an arm came across and pulled him aside.

"Big brother-in-law?" Cui Pu whispered when he saw someone coming, "Are you here for business?"

"I came here specially to find you." Wei Zhuang's face was gloomy, with a faint gleam of coldness in his eyes.

Cui Pu's heart sank again. "What happened?"

"An accident happened to the restaurant in Tianchang County!"
