On that day, Xiao Qi came to Yamen early in the morning and saw Mu Ziqi.

Mu Zishan wore a black wide-sleeved long dress today, with a white hosta on his head, which was very pleasing to the eye.

Xiao Qi is a little envious, this person, if he looks good, he looks good in any color.

"Mu Ziqi, don't you have to go to the academy?"

"I'm going back to Beijing in a month, and I won't go to the academy in the future, and I'll be working in the yamen during this time."

When patrolling the streets, Mu Ziqi and Ah Mo also followed behind Xiao Qi, and there was also a small tail Laifu.

"Someone is robbing money!" An old voice came.

Since Xiao Qi was promoted to catch his head, the security in Pengzhou City has always been good, and today someone robbed money, Xiao Qi was very angry.

She immediately ran in the direction of the shout, and saw an old lady shaking her hands and shouting, "Help! Grab the money! ”

Even the old lady's things were robbed and there was no humanity, Xiao Qi took the old lady's hand and asked, "Mother-in-law, where did the person who robbed the money go?" ”

The old lady looked at Xiao Qi with some doubts: "Little girl, what did you say?" I can't hear clearly. ”

"Mother-in-law should be a little deaf like this, little seventh girl, your voice is too gentle, look at me-" Ah Mo stepped forward and shouted into the old lady's ear: "In which direction did the money robbers go-"

The sound was so loud that Xiao Qi and Mu Ziqi both covered their ears.

The old lady shook her hand and pointed in the direction of the moat, Xiao Qi looked in the direction she pointed, and sure enough, she saw a person running towards the river in a panic.

When Xiao Qi chased him to the river, the man jumped directly into the moat.

Xiao Qi jumped into the moat without thinking about it, in fact, Xiao Qi can swim, many children in the village bathe in the river in the summer, she learned to swim at a very young age, but the technique is average.

But Mu Zixi didn't know that after he saw Xiao Qi jump into the river, he didn't hesitate to jump into the moat.

Ah Mo panicked, his son-in-law doesn't know how to water! He, he himself doesn't know how to water, so he can't save his son.

So Ah Mo ran and shouted for help, "Come on, someone, someone has fallen into the river!" ”

Soon attracted a lot of people.

Ah Mo was about to cry, and looked at the lively crowd again and again: "My young master doesn't know water, which master who knows water to help save my young master, the prefect will definitely reward him." ”

Hearing that there was a reward, a large group of people rushed into the river like dumplings.

Xiao Qi didn't catch up with the thief for a while, and felt a little out of strength, at this moment, a black shadow swam towards her, swimming to her and burrowing his head.

Xiao Qi found out that it was Laifu, and Laifu could swim in the water, which was really unexpected, but Laifu brought her too many accidents, and it was not bad.

Laifu didn't give Xiao Qi a chance to think nonsense, and directly hunched her on her back and rowed to the shore.

Xiao Qi saw Laifu swinging his "tail" flexibly like a fish, and soon arrived at the shore, and said in his heart, this child should not be the reincarnation of a fish spirit.

When he was about to reach the shore, Xiao Qi picked up Mu Ziqi, who was dressed in black and was fluttering in the water.

Climbing ashore, Xiao Qi found that many people were jumping into the water, and looked at Ah Mo blankly: "Ah Mo, what's going on?" Why do people scramble to jump into the water? ”

Seeing that his son-in-law had already gone ashore, Ah Mo hurriedly shouted into the river: "The people have been rescued, everyone come up quickly." ”

There were about 20 people who went down to the river to save people, and they were a little unhappy after they came up, and the people had been rescued, which meant that the reward was gone, and they jumped into the water in vain and wet their clothes.

Someone sighed and said, "Why did you save it?" ”

Ah Mo was very angry when he heard this, "How can you speak?" Do you want to curse my son-in-law to drown? ”

Mu Zichen: "Ah Mo, give the reward quickly." ”

Ah Mo had to take out the silver coin and divide one by one, "Take the money and leave quickly, don't stand here and watch the excitement anymore." ”

After Xiao Qi carried the internal strength, his clothes dried quickly.

But Mu Ziqi can't do it, he doesn't have the skills of Xiao Qi.

Xiao Qi told Ah Mo: "Although it is a dog day, you still have to pay attention, and help your son-in-law go home and change into dry clothes first." ”

Mu Ziqi looked at Xiao Qi with big black and moist eyes, Xiao Qi's gaze just met with him, and Xiao Qi felt that he was sucked into the abyss by those black eyes.

Xiao Qi came back to his senses and immediately sighed, it's a pity, a person who looks so good, but his brain is not very good, he can't swim and jump into the water.

"Hurry up and help your son-in-law go home, otherwise you will be in trouble if you get sick when the wind blows."

Mu Ziqi went back to the house to take a bath and change clothes, and drank ginger soup boiled in the kitchen, which naturally couldn't be hidden from Mrs. Mu.

She quickly had Ah Mo called and ordered, "Tell me about today's drowning." ”

Ah Mo didn't dare to hide it, and roughly told what happened.

After hearing this, Madame Mu's face sank, and she shouted out of the door, "Pull this slave down and beat ten boards." ”

Ah Mo was beaten very lightly, limped back, gently pushed open the door of the house, saw that the master was sleeping on the bed, hurriedly went out of the house, and asked the little maid who was watching outside the door to help him with the medicine for the injury.

In the evening, Mrs. Mu said to the Mu prefect: "You have always said that Qi'er likes to go to the Liu family because the food of the Liu family is delicious, you never expected that your son who can't swim in the water jumped into the water desperately to save people, and it was the little girl of the Liu family who was saved." ”

Mu Zhifu smiled gently: "Although Qi'er is stubborn, he has a good nature, and it is not a big deal for him to run to save people." ”

Mrs. Mu took out a handkerchief embroidered with golden peony flowers and pressed the corner of her eyes, and her voice carried a hint of crying: "Why is it not a big deal?" Qi'er can't swim and almost lost her life, if my Qi'er is gone, how can I live? ”

Mu Zhifu hugged his wife and patted his back gently, "Madame, don't cry, I will teach that kid a hard lesson tomorrow." ”

Mrs. Mu said hatefully: "It is the hateful Liu family that should be taught a lesson. ”

……

On the second day, a mother-in-law wearing gold and silver came to the courtyard of the Liu family.

"Is there anyone at home?"

Liu Dahe came out of the house when he heard the voice, and saw a well-dressed mother-in-law and asked, "May I ask who you are looking for?" ”

The mother-in-law raised her chin: "I'm from Mufu." ”

As soon as Liu Dahe heard the word Mufu, he understood the identity of his mother-in-law, and the only Mufu they knew was the prefect's family.

Because Niu was not at home, it was inconvenient for him to entertain a big man, so he had to ask the little servant at home to go to Qixi Building to inform Niu to come back.

When Niu heard that someone was coming from Mufu, he didn't dare to slack off, hired a carriage and hurried home, personally welcomed his mother-in-law into the house, and instructed the little maid to serve tea to her mother-in-law, "Pick up the best Longjing tea." ”

Soon, tea was served.

The mother-in-law never saw a smile on her face, glanced at the teacup and said, "I'm afraid that the best Longjing tea is not something that people like you can afford to drink." ”

Niu was a little embarrassed when she heard it, she could only play prestige in front of Liu Dahe in her life, and she also knew how to avoid powerful people when she met them, after all, the woman in front of her was from the prefect's mansion.

The mother-in-law glanced at the Niu family and continued: "Old woman, I will get straight to the point, I am here to pass the word, the prefect's wife said, the untouchables from the poor countryside, dare to think about the prefect's son, it is simply a dream, wishful thinking, let your Liu family put yourself in the right position." ”

After the woman finished speaking, she put the teacup on the table with a clatter, got up and left.

Niu's heart was angry and there was nowhere to send it, so he found a trivial thing and lost his temper at Liu Dahe, and pulled out all the vegetables grown by Liu Dahe in the backyard.
