Mu Jiu deliberately avoided Lin Changsheng and retreated a little, "I think I've made it clear to you, it's impossible between us, you die of this heart." ”

Lin Changsheng turned a deaf ear, "Let's go, we won't be able to catch up with Luocheng County before it gets dark." ”

Mu Jiu got into the carriage and didn't say a word to Lin Changsheng until he reached Luocheng County.

There's a liking called wishing he left!

……

When he arrived in Luocheng County, Mu Jiu went directly to Zhangfu, and this time he only showed up, and the porter greeted people inside.

When Mrs. Zhang heard that Mu Jiu was coming, she personally went out of the courtyard to greet her, smiling kindly, "Jiu'er, you are finally here!" ”

Since the last time he helped Mrs. Zhang heal, and accidentally discovered that Mrs. Zhang had poisoned Mrs. Zhang, Mu Jiu couldn't see the cute and amiable old man in front of him as a kind old man.

With a fake smile, Mu Jiu bowed to Old Lady Zhang, "Hello Old Lady Zhang, how are you doing recently?" ”

"Drag Jiu'er's blessing, my old man's body is getting better and better!" Old lady Zhang was full of smiles, "Come on, come on, it's cold outside, sit and talk inside." ”

Mu Jiu followed Old Lady Zhang into the hall, where charcoal was burning, and it was warm.

Old Lady Zhang asked Mu Jiu to sit opposite him, still smiling brightly, "I bought some ginger tea last time, drink a cup on such a cold day, my body is warm, drink a cup every day, I don't have to be afraid of the cold!" ”

Mu Jiuxin said that this ginger tea would not be the first batch I sold.

As a result, take a sip, it's really produced by Jiu'antang!

Mu Jiu thought about it and said, "The old lady seems to have a special respect for this ginger tea!"

Old man Zhang: "I won't tell you, the supply of this ginger tea is too small, the boss fishes for three days and dries the net for two days, the teacher is out of stock, I still bought some through the channel, no, if you didn't come, I would be reluctant to take it out and drink it!" ”

Mu Jiu arched his hand, "Jiu'er's honor, thank you, grandpa!" ”

"What did you say, this old man's life was saved by you, and when you come, you are the most honored guest of our family."

"The old lady is lifted." Mu Jiu thought to himself, and asked someone to bring some ginger tea when he went back.

I didn't expect that the approval documents for the coal mountain, some of which I brought before, were given to Yang Aiguo and Song Zhongjun, and the gifts for Mrs. Zhang were still bought at random in the city.

"If Jiu'er likes it, I'll ask someone to wrap it up for you later, and you won't be afraid of the cold in winter."

Mu Jiu hurriedly stood up, "Thank you, old lady, but no, I have ...... at home."

Old lady Zhang thought that Mu Jiu was embarrassed, and waved his hand, "Hey, it's useless, it's not a particularly valuable thing anyway, but the boss is a little lazy and does less." ”

Mu Jiu, "......"

Shame!

The owner is right across the street from you!

Mu Jiu told the truth, anyway, sooner or later he would know, "Old lady, in fact, that ginger tea was made by me......"

Mrs. Zhang was stunned for a long time before she came back to her senses, and complained about the boss for a long time, and the boss sat opposite him.

Even though he has experienced a lot, his old face can't help but be embarrassed, "Ahem, I'll just say which master can make such a good thing, it turns out to be Jiu'er!" Jiu'er...... You can't do more. ”

"I'm sorry, I should have brought some over to see the old lady, but there was a reason for it, and I came in a hurry, so I went back to do some and asked someone to bring some for the old lady."

Old lady Zhang smiled from ear to ear and thanked him again and again.

The two chatted about some other things, and Zhang Jinwei came back from the yamen and went straight to the old man's courtyard, "Dad! ”

first saluted, and then bowed to Mu Jiu, "Miss Mu! ”

"Hello Master Zhang!" Mu Jiu stood up and saluted.

"Miss Mu doesn't have to be polite."

Mu Jiu just laughed, people's polite words, you must not really not be polite, otherwise, the impression will be bad, and the approval will be easy to cause extraneous branches.

Old lady Zhang was very happy, "Jin Wei, the very good ginger tea you gave me last time was made by Miss Mu." ”

Zhang Jinwei's eyes lit up, "Miss Mu is really versatile. ”

Mu Jiu said modestly, "Master Zhang has won the award, but he just relies on his knowledge of medical skills and likes to tinker." ”

Zhang Jinwei pulled a chair and sat down, "Miss Mu doesn't have to be modest, although I don't know how to medicine, I can feel that Miss Mu's medical skills are difficult to find opponents in the entire Qizhou Mansion." ”

Mu Jiu was vigilant, in case someone in the Qi Prefecture had an incurable disease, and Zhang Jinwei confessed to her, then her plan would be disrupted!

Before the strength failed to match, she didn't want to go to a bigger place, otherwise, if she was not careful, it would be easy to wipe out the whole army.

Her circumstances kept her from taking the plunge.

Thinking of this, Mu Jiu stood up and bowed his hands, "Please also ask Lord Zhang for help, the grass people just want to guard my mother's ordinary life." ”

Zhang Jinwei didn't understand Mu Jiu's thoughts very well, he once thought that he recommended Mu Jiu to the county seat last time, but Mu Jiu refused because the place was not big enough, "Why?" People go to high places, and your ability should not be limited to the small place of Mujia Village. ”

Mu Jiu smiled, "Everyone has their own ideals, and Jiu'er's ideal is just to live a dull life for the time being." ”

She never mentioned her master, lest the father and son find her master.

Zhang Jinwei wanted to say something, but Mrs. Zhang smiled, "That's fine, my old man also wants to go back to the countryside to live my leisurely life." ”

Mu Jiuxin said that there are no leisurely days in the countryside? Which one is not hard work facing the loess with its back to the sky, and it is not enough to eat.

Only when there is enough money and material resources can you be leisurely!

But she just smiled and sloppily eyes, "Thank you for the old lady's understanding, Jiu'er also likes the leisurely countryside too!" ”

Zhang Jinwei: "Yes, I don't tell anyone else, but you know, if someone higher than me asks, I can't do it." ”

"If Master Zhang didn't take the initiative to mention it, Mu Jiu was grateful! Thank you, Mr. Zhang. ”

What else could Zhang Jinwei say, Mu Jiu saved the two most important people in his life, so he changed the topic, "Miss Mu is going to rest in the mansion for one night tonight?" ”

"No, I came to Mr. Zhang today because I wanted to trouble Mr. Zhang." Mu Jiu got straight to the point, "Just now the old lady thought I was too lazy, and the ginger tea was out of stock, so I thought, I'm also innocent!" ”

Mu Jiu guided the topic little by little, "The old lady doesn't know, it takes a lot of firewood to boil ginger tea, but we only have a few low slopes in Mujia Village, and I have already cut the firewood of the entire low slope, and the villagers already have opinions about me, if I cut a little more, it is estimated that the villagers will not be able to survive the winter."

So I've been looking for new fuel, no, after many inquiries, I heard that there is a coal mountain in Qingshan Town, so I thought about whether I could get the mining rights down, and I don't have to worry about running out of stock due to the lack of fuel to make ginger tea in the future! ”

Zhang Jinwei agreed on the spot, "This matter is easy to do, you can stay here for one night with peace of mind, and I will give you the approval tomorrow morning." ”

Mu Jiu was worried about the handling fee for the approval, "I don't know how much silver it will cost." ”

"I know that coal mountain, according to the scale, at least 1,000 taels of silver, but Miss Mu wants to open it, I will give a discount......

"No, everything is done according to the rules, so it is not easy to make mistakes in the future."

Zhang Jinwei grabbed his cuffs sneeringly, "Miss Mu is admirable!" It's because I think it's wrong, the things of the government are not my things, Miss Mu's kindness to our family is like a mountain, it's really ......"

Mu Jiu didn't wear him either, and followed his words, "People are not sages, and there is always a moment of excitement. ”

Zhang Jinwei was quite surprised that Mu Jiu could say such a thing, after all, when ordinary people heard that there were interests, they would definitely not think so deeply, and even wanted to take advantage of them, but it was not surprising, the Mu Jiu he knew was not like a person who was greedy for money, and only five hundred taels was not enough to make her violate her principles.

The three of them talked for a while, and a maid came to report that dinner was ready, and told them to go to dinner.

It was difficult to resist the hospitality, so Mu Jiu had to stay in Zhangfu for a meal.

Lin Changsheng didn't come this time, but told her that as long as she left the Zhang family, she would be able to see him.

Why didn't Lin Changsheng come, no matter what she did in the past, Lin Changsheng took the initiative to accompany her, Mu Jiu was puzzled, but he never asked anything, just silently wrote it down.

The Zhang family was eating in the hall of the main house, and when Mu Jiu went, Mrs. Zhang was already sitting there, and when she saw Mrs. Zhang, she still put on a flattering posture as in the past, but Mrs. Zhang still didn't give face and ignored her.

Mu Jiu had no intention of gossiping about the Zhang family, and after Zhang Jinwei greeted him, he sat quietly in a corner.

There are not many people in the Zhang family, Zhang Jinwei and his wife, Mrs. Zhang, and a child, ten-year-old Zhang Jiaye.

Old lady Zhang was very enthusiastic, and asked the maid to add vegetables to Mu Jiu from time to time, "Jiu'er, you eat more, see how thin you are." ”

Compared with the arrogance of the previous two times, this time, Mrs. Zhang's attitude towards Mu Jiu was also much better, but she didn't have the consciousness of saving the people at all, at most she said hello, and then pretended not to see it.

Mu Jiu doesn't care, she doesn't care about this, as long as Mrs. Zhang doesn't assassinate her.

Quietly eat the dishes that the maid put into her bowl without making a sound.

But Mrs. Zhang, from time to time to find a topic to say a sentence or two, Mrs. Zhang responded positively, Zhang Jinwei didn't say much, occasionally picked up a sentence or two.

Halfway through the meal, a delicately dressed girl ran in with a group of maids majestic, "Grandpa! Father! I am back! ”

Mu Jiu glanced up and pretended not to see it, wasn't this the girl who grabbed silk with her in the silk shop before!

I didn't expect it to be the child of the Zhang family.

However, looking at the atmosphere of the Zhang family, it doesn't look like a family that can teach a rude lady!

Also, she only called her grandfather and father, which showed that she was hostile to Mrs. Zhang, and it also showed that Mrs. Zhang was not her mother.

But none of this is her business.

Old lady Zhang looked doting, "Huihui is back, hurry up and sit down to eat." ”

Zhang Jinwei had a calm face, "Call Mother." ”

Zhang Jiahui took it for granted, "She's not my mother!" ”

Then sat down next to Mrs. Zhang, with a sweet smile, "Grandpa, Huihui is hungry, can you eat first." ”

Old Lady Zhang nodded dotingly, "Eat first." ”

Immediately, a maid came up with a pair of dishes and chopsticks and served rice and vegetables to Zhang Jiahui......
