Chapter 21: A Tooth for a Tooth
As soon as Qiao Guozhi said this, Mu Ran pointed to the red mark on her son Mu Jinyu's face.
"It was the young lady who slapped my son twice, but it was because my son accidentally touched her snack."
"As for the dim sum, I compensated her fifty taels of silver according to the price she offered, this is the handwritten letter left to me by this young lady, please read it."
Mu Ran handed over the handwritten letter written by Zhou Ruxue to Qiao Guozhi.
Then he said: "As for me, I am a person with clear grievances. Since their servants said that my son had broken their things, I would not talk nonsense, but I would compensate them with as much silver as they said. ”
"This is the end of their money, and it's their turn to take responsibility for my son's injuries. But not only did they not apologize, they did not give me justice, but they also used her father to threaten me as a small ordinary person in the name of the mayor of the town. ”
"County master, you give a commentary, if everyone acts like this young lady, is there still a king in this world? Can her father, a town mayor, be bigger than the emperor and the law of the dynasty that is the master of the people? ”
"This lady, please be angry, be angry. The official understands this matter, and the official will make the decision for his wife when he meets the meeting. Mrs. and the little boy can rest assured. ”
Qiao Guozhi comforted Mu Ran and the mother and son.
To be honest, at this point, there is nothing he still doesn't know.
Dare to love this week, Yueshan's daughter ran out again to bully others.
He had persuaded Zhou Yueshan many times before, asking him to take good care of his daughter.
lest one day you get into trouble with someone you shouldn't be messed with, and then you won't even be able to find a place to cry.
Now it's really right for him.
Today, Zhou Ruxue offended the wife and children of Nangong Gongzi's brother, where is there any good end, I am afraid that his father Zhou Yueshan will also be implicated.
Maybe their Zhou family and the whole family can't stay in this realm anymore.
This offended Nangong Chuli, the little overlord, but it never ended well.
Thinking about it, he sighed lightly and said, "You two, what are you doing there, why don't you hurry up and come over to apologize to this lady and the little boy." ”
After all, Yue Shan has had a friendship with him for many years.
Qiao Guozhi really didn't want to see his old friend desolate in his old age.
Therefore, Zhou Ruxue was reminded, hoping that she could be smart and know what to do.
The red sleeves saw that things had developed to this point, and the prince of Nangong told the county master what she had offended him again.
The county magistrate is going to come to ask her and Miss about it.
In this way, Red Sleeves was so shocked that he was already slumped on the ground.
At this time, she knew very well in her heart that people like Nangong Chuli were not something that her red sleeves could afford to provoke.
At that moment, she cried and begged Zhou Ruxue and said: "Miss, Miss, Red Sleeves has always been loyal to you, you can be saved later, save Red Sleeves, save Red Sleeves." ”
At this point, Red Sleeves knew that he was afraid, but it was too late.
"Shut up, you still don't think I'm messy enough right now. It's all your fault, if you weren't used to being arrogant, how could something like this happen today. ”
Zhou Ruxue watched the situation take a turn for the worse, and even she was going to be unable to protect herself.
Listening to Uncle Qiao's tone, maybe she will have to burden her father, where will she care about the life and death of a little maid.
If it weren't for the little boy who had just bitten it, it would have been her slap from Zhou Ruxue.
I'm afraid that Zhou Ruxue at this moment will have already pushed everything completely and let Red Sleeves carry everything alone.
But the fact is that even if Red Sleeves is left alone, the mother and son will obviously not give up.
Thinking of Zhou Ruxue's ruthlessness, she gritted her teeth and pulled her red sleeves together.
"Let's go, I'll apologize with Miss."
In this way, the master and servant came to Mu Ranran's mother and son, and both knelt down.
"I'm sorry, this lady, this little boy, it was me and the maid who were too rude before, it was our fault. We apologize, and hope that Madame will raise her noble hand and let us go this time. ”
This week, Ruxue knows very well that if they can't ask for the understanding of the mother and son, I'm afraid their Zhou family will really be finished.
Therefore, she could only bet on the mother and son, thinking that the mother and son could be kind, and spared her this time.
"Son, what do you think?"
Mu Ran completely handed over this matter to his son Mu Jinyu to deal with.
That Mu Jinyu did not disappoint Mu Dye by half a point.
"Mother, before what to do with them, you have to explain one thing. The big pillar brother has already invited the shopkeeper of Xiangzhaiju over. ”
"At this time, let the shopkeeper talk about it in front of the county master and everyone, let everyone listen, is this snack only five taels of silver, or fifty taels of silver?"
Mu Jinyu is a little person, and she is already extremely organized.
He had to make everyone understand that they were suspected of extortion from their master and servant.
And when the shopkeeper of Xiangzhai Ju saw this, he immediately bowed his hand to Qiao Guozhi, the county magistrate.
"Meet the county master, although the little one is a small shopkeeper, he also knows the truth of being a man. This Miss Zhou only paid a total of five taels of silver for the dim sum she bought when she came to Xiangzhaiju just now, and there were no fifty taels at all. The little one told the truth, and asked the county master to see it. ”
The shopkeeper originally refused to come with Zhao Dazhu, because he was also afraid of offending Zhou Yueshan, the mayor of the town.
How dare a person like them in business argue with an official, so he is extremely reluctant to come on this trip.
It's just that after all, my conscience will not go.
After all, fifty taels of silver is already a lot of silver for a farmer's family, and who knows if the child can afford to pay it?
Thinking of this, the shopkeeper couldn't bear it, so he still went on such a trip with Zhao Dazhu.
But when he arrived, he didn't expect things to turn out like this.
This Miss Zhou really provoked someone who shouldn't be messed with this time.
And he can finally tell the truth with confidence, and he is not afraid that the Zhou family will retaliate against him.
Of course, after the shopkeeper of Xiangzhai House told the truth.
The onlookers were even more disdainful of the master and servant, and their eyes showed indignation.
And Qiao Guozhi really doesn't know what to say about the two of them, which is obviously blackmail.
Their behavior is no different from that of ruffians.
You said, such a reputation has spread, and this Miss Zhou is afraid that her reputation in this realm will be stinking in the future.
When the time comes, there will definitely be no equivalent door willing to marry such a woman to enter the door.
Zhou Ruxue naturally knows this very well.
It's getting so big that she can't get it out of her way.
She secretly hated the mother and son in her heart for not knowing each other too much, but she had to apologize on her face.
"I'm sorry, it's all because I didn't teach my maid well, I really don't know that this idea is worth five taels of silver, after all, the silver is paid by red sleeves."
"I'm sorry, this lady and the little son, oh, this is the fifty taels of silver you paid just now, and I will return it to you now, I hope you can forgive me, forgive me."
Zhou Ruxue spit out the fifty taels she had eaten just now, and returned it to Mu Ran and Mu Jinyu as they were.
But Mu Jinyu pushed it away.
I only heard him say: "One yard is one yard, since we have both agreed on the matter of compensation in front, then the fifty taels of silver are yours." ”
"It's just that you have to settle accounts separately about what you hit me. Right now, although you kneel and kowtow to make amends, you always have to pay back what you deserve. ”
"You, slapped me twice, and blackmailed my mother by saying that the original five taels of silver dim sum was going to be fifty taels of silver. Now, I'm going to shave yourself twenty times more, and you're going to raise the price of dim sum tenfold. ”
He didn't want to do it himself, he just didn't bother to dirty his own hands.
