Chapter 31 Report to the Officer
"Brother Pei, you said I did this, right?"
Mu Tianxiang lowered her head and didn't look at Pei Zongze, and her words, she couldn't tell whether she was asking Pei Da Shopkeeper or herself.
It was when she said that she had reported to the police, and for a moment she felt that she should not be impulsive and set up more enemies for herself in this isolated and helpless moment.
Although she knows the current trend, as long as she lives with the Xie family, if she blindly endures, she will die quickly.
It's just that she really made her cruel, but she also began to look ahead.
Although she now has the support of Uncle Jiang, Master Liu and Shopkeeper Pei behind her, in the final analysis, in the Mu Mansion, they are only considered slaves, and those people in the Xie family are indeed half masters.
There is a master, and the slave has never committed it.
Mu Tianxiang gritted her teeth, and found that her current priority was not how to deal with those minions who had committed crimes, nor was she in a hurry to confront Xie Fugui.
What she urgently needs to do now is to find a backer, a powerful backer who can help her everywhere without worries, so that everyone can fully realize that she is the master of Mufu.
Mu Tianxiang's cold gaze swept over everyone, and finally landed on the only smiling face, thinking of what she had just asked, she was a little expectant to answer.
Her gaze fell on Pei Zongze's face, at this time, she always felt that the only person she could rely on was him.
Because in her memory, she has always felt that no matter to her mother or her, she can see a kind of affection like family in his eyes, and since she can remember, he has taken care of her like a brother.
From this point alone, if even he can't be trusted and relied on, then she will really be isolated and helpless now.
"It's okay, just do what you want to do, you have to know, after reading this account book, now you are the big boss of our Mu Mansion, and you have the final say in the shop. ”
Pei Zongze raised his eyebrows, smiled at her and reminded her, while she cheered her up, she was also curious about Mu Tianxiang.
It's different, it's really a big difference, when did the little girl in my memory who often hid behind her mother and was ashamed to see people become so decisive and tough?
It's just that why is she showing such a look now? Her brows are deep, her color is defeated, and she looks sad as if she is confused or something?
That day Xiang knew what to do. Mu Tianxiang lowered her head and speculated slightly, and when she raised her head again, she didn't see the slightest confusion on her face.
Confidently raised his head and said to Uncle Jiang, who had not left the door: "Uncle Jiang, there is a small bottle of peach blossom dew in my house, I have heard that the prefect's wife is so fragrant, you take it in a while, go to the prefect's mansion in person, and send the vase of flower dew to the prefect's wife as the daughter of Mu Wanqiu, and then go to the county magistrate to receive the certificate and report the matter to the county magistrate." ”
The bottle of peach blossom dew that Mu Tianxiang said was that she was bored a few days ago, and saw that the petals of the small peach tree in the yard had fallen, so she picked it up and made a small bottle of flower dew using the oldest distillation method.
And she knew that the prefect's wife was very fragrant, but it was the news she got from her mother, because the prefect's wife would hold an incense exhibition in her house almost every month, and her mother, as a famous incense maker, would naturally not be missing.
As for the fact that she wants to invite the county magistrate, why should she say that Hualu was sent to the prefect's wife instead of the prefect's wife, but because the prefect's wife was the sister who single-handedly brought up the county magistrate and urged her to rush to the exam and be promoted, and the prefect's wife couldn't speak in front of the prefect, but it had a great impact on the county magistrate.
Others may not know, but every time she goes to the prefect's mansion with her mother to participate in the incense exhibition, she knows that this county order is obedient to the prefect's wife.
As long as the prefect's wife can speak, then the county order will be fine.
Xie Fugui naturally knew this, to say that the county prince of Licheng today, who was the father of the people, was more selfless than the prefect, so when he heard Mu Tianxiang's words, he immediately stood up in shock.
"Xiang'er, this is absolutely unacceptable. For the sake of my father's face, can I spare them this time?"
How to say that those people are his relatives and friends, Xie Fugui thought that if he reported to the official, they would definitely suffer from prison, not to mention what kind of expression would be after learning the news in the second room, if the matter is really intervened, I am afraid that even he may be implicated, how can this be done.
Therefore, the top priority at the moment is to find ways to prevaricate this matter, as long as you don't report to the official, there is still a way back.
Mu Tianxiang looked at Xie Fugui with an absent-minded look, as for what he was thinking, he could probably guess why.
If the evildoer can easily forgive because of his intercession, then she Mu Tianxiang is not destined to be the one who is easy to bully.
Mu Tianxiang sneered and looked at Xie Fugui, since these people were able to enter the shop without any worries and ignore the rules of the shogunate, if it weren't for the fact that he was there and had no fear, how could they deceive the superiors and subordinates and squander the shogunate's silver taels unscrupulously.
"Dad, tell me, why should I forgive them?" Mu Tianxiang saw that Xie Fugui was about to speak, and immediately raised his hand, didn't let him speak, and sneered: "Dad, don't say anything that alarming the government will affect the business of the shop, the reputation accumulated by my shogunate's century-old foundation can be affected by punishing those who do evil, besides, since they can do this kind of thing, they must be mentally prepared to accept punishment." What reason do you think I have to forgive?
"But......" Xie Fugui glanced at Pei Zongze, who made him a little frightened, a little uncomfortable, before turning to Mu Tianxiang and saying, "No matter what, they are also our relatives, for the sake of this, should they also be forgiven this time?"
"So you mean that relatives are more important than your daughter?" would rather let your so-called relatives come to harm Mu Fu and stain your daughter's silver, and you don't mind?
"Well, since your father has interceded, Xiang'er is naturally not good to disobey your father's request, and you can ask me to forgive me, but there must be conditions. The corners of Mu Tianxiang's mouth raised, glanced at the fake shopkeepers, and said to a few people lightly: "As long as you can return the silver taels that you have privately swallowed within three months, and then swear that you will never contact the property of Mufu and the work of the incense shop, and I will forgive you if you say that this way is good?"
Mu Tianxiang asked Xie Fugui with a smile.
