After a short confrontation with Mu Jiaojiao, Mrs. Wu also fell into deep thought.

"Erlang's daughter-in-law, you won't be angry with Cui Liu's wife, right?" Mrs. Zuo Governor's Mansion hurriedly whispered to comfort her, "That little lady has a very small heart, but her temper is very big, and her mouth is poisonous, she is a master who refuses to suffer, don't be like her." ”

"I'm not angry. I'm just thinking that she doesn't seem to be as bad as you say. Mrs. Wu said.

Mrs. Zuo was stunned when she heard this, and hurriedly touched her forehead: "You won't be stupid, right?"

Mrs. Wu shook her head: "What I said was true. If it weren't for the hostile relationship between Erlang and Cui Liu, I would have really wanted to be friends with her. It's a pity...... Hey!"

After having lunch at the Zuo Prefect's Mansion, Cui Pu and his party made an appointment to go out for a drink. This time, Slender West Lake couldn't be killed, so they chose Guanyin Mountain.

Huang Zhixian proposed: "Why don't we bring our wives with us this time! There are more people, and it's more lively, isn't it?"

The others hurriedly nodded in agreement. But they are all quietly making small calculations in their hearts - Cui Pu's concern for his sick wife, they have already heard of it. As long as he can make his wife have a good relationship with Mu Jiaojiao, then if there is any good thing on Cui Pu's side in the future, will he still not think about them? And if there is anything that wants to ask Cui Pu for help, as long as he begs Mu Jiaojiao to help say a few good words, I am afraid that he will not think about it too much?

However, Cui Pu was more resistant to this proposal. "My wife, she is not in good health, I'm afraid she can't stand such a toss back and forth. Otherwise, she'll forget it!"

Their target this time is Mu Jiaojiao, how can she let her forget it?

"Isn't this our lady here, if she is not feeling well, let them accompany her. Huang Zhixian hurriedly said.

The others couldn't stop persuading, but Cui Pu had no choice but to call someone to send a message to Mu Jiaojiao. Mu Jiaojiao responded very happily.

Guanyin Mountain is the former site of the palace maze of Emperor Yang of Sui in Yangzhou. After the death of Sui, the maze was also destroyed. Later generations built another temple on the foundation of the labyrinth, and named it Guanyin Mountain. Because the topography of Guanyin Mountain is the highest in Yangzhou, the designer of the mountain temple is also unique and builds the treasure hall according to the mountain. Walking all the way, the ancient branches on both sides are coiled, and the branches have just pulled out a touch of green buds, which contrast with the towering red wall, revealing a touch of vitality in the solemnity.

Mu Jiaojiao is not in good health, this is well known. So before going up the mountain, Cui Pu had already ordered someone to prepare a bamboo sedan chair to carry her up.

Mrs. Huang received an order from Huang Zhixian this time and specially came to have a good relationship with Mu Jiaojiao. Seeing this, she covered her lips and smiled: "Cui Xianzun is really good to Mrs. Cui. I have lived for so many years, and I have never seen a little Langjun take such care of his own lady. Look at you, and then think about the dead old man in my family, I am really jealous and hateful, I really want him to come and learn from Cui Zhixian!"

The other ladies also had this intention, so they echoed it one after another, praising and praising the relationship between Cui Pu and Mu Jiaojiao.

Mu Jiaojiao smiled indifferently, and when she caught a glimpse of the disdain on Mrs. Wu's face over there, she said: "My family Langjun feels sorry for me because I am not in good health, so he cares more about me." A husband and wife, it is always the weaker one who is more cared for. Mrs. Wu, do you say?"

Mrs. Wu's heart tugged at her - between her and Wu Lixin, wasn't she the one who cared more about Wu Lixin? Wu Lixin was completely qualified to be a gentleman. Just to be a magistrate...... That's far from it. But now, the samurai family has decided to let him enter the officialdom experience. No matter how badly he did, now that the path has been chosen, there will be no turning back. Even if she knew that he was not this material, she could only accompany him to the end.

Just like now, the reason why the Wu family sent her here was just to let her keep an eye on Wu Lixin and prevent him from doing anything wrong. As long as he survives the year smoothly, they will have a way to give him an excellent performance appraisal, and then move his official position up a higher rank.

But where is Wu Lixin such a person who keeps to himself? Especially when there is a Cui Pu next to him, he is always and everywhere compared to him. Seeing Cui Pu make so many achievements again and again, he couldn't hold it anymore! God knows how much effort she had to make him stay honest!

The reason why the martial arts family gave her to Wu Lixin was because they took a fancy to her tough nature. Now, isn't she just staring at him and controlling him? It's just that as a woman, who wants to live like this every day? She also hopes to have a man who stands up to the sky and the earth to rely on her!

She was so aggrieved that she cried to her family, but she was scolded instead, saying that she was hypocritical. As a result, who knows, it is Wu Lixin's nemesis who really understands her!

With a shock in her heart, she silently turned her head: "I don't understand what Mrs. Cui said." I'm not so weak as you that I can't even walk a few steps, and I don't need a man's care. ”

The resentment in these words is not ordinary!

Mu Jiaojiao smiled when she heard this, and then turned around and talked with Mrs. Huang again.

When we reached the top of the mountain, we entered a purple bamboo forest, and everyone stopped here for a while. After setting up the food and drinks, the men and women sat in two circles and began to talk again.

As soon as the New Year passes, it will be the highlight of the year again - spring ploughing. As a magistrate, everyone is most concerned about the promotion of sweet potato planting.

After three rounds of drinking, Huang Zhixian hurriedly grabbed Cui Pu's words and said: "Cui Xianzun, last time you invited me to plant sweet potatoes with you, because I was timid and missed a great opportunity, I am not right about this." However, for the sake of our two counties adjacent to each other and the many cooperation between you and me that is also very smooth, I have to be cheeky and beg you to share some sweet potato seedlings with us. We don't need more, enough to plant half of the county's dry land!"

"Okay, when I go back, I'll ask someone to start preparing seedlings, and then I'll send them over with someone who knows how to guide them, what do you think?" He didn't beat around the bush, and Cui Pu also responded happily.

Huang Zhixian was overjoyed and nodded hurriedly. "What else do you send! When the seedlings are planted, you notify me, and I will ask someone to pick them up!"

"That's fine. However, you have to pay for the food and lodging of the people who send them to the guide, and if you do a good job, it is best to give people a little hard money. After all, people also have to leave what they are doing to help you. Cui Pu smiled.

"That's natural! You can rest assured, as long as you are willing to send someone to guide, it will give me a great face. Such talents, how can we not eat and drink well?" Huang Zhixian's wish was fulfilled, and he immediately laughed.

Seeing this, the other magistrates were so red that they hurriedly asked for the same treatment.

Cui Pu responded happily.

After roughly explaining the matter to everyone one by one, his eyes fell on Wu Lixin, who was drinking drunk. A gleam in his eyes flowed, and the corners of Cui Pu's lips suddenly raised a light smile: "However, presumably Hailing County doesn't need it, right? I heard that you got a lot of sweet potatoes at the end of last year? Since you have mastered the cultivation technology, it must not be a big problem to cultivate some seedlings this year to promote them to the whole county, do you say?"

Wu Lixinsheng gnawed at his heart.

Cui Pu, this bastard! He's going to hurt him!

At the end of last year, the sweet potatoes quietly planted by the squires of Hailing County were indeed harvested well. At first, he was so proud, and he planned to use this to hit Cui Pu again--make you proud, we also have this thing in Hailing County now, and it has a lot of weight! I see how you still use this thing to show off in front of me!

As a result, who knows, Cui Pu didn't know how to tell the people in the household department, but he actually let people only transport 2 million catties, and the remaining more than 400,000 catties were all left. He gave the odds to the others, leaving 400,000 catties for himself, and then opened a restaurant with his brother-in-law!

For ten cents, you can order a sweet potato. As soon as this news was launched, sweet potatoes became a relatively common consumer product in Yangzhou - as long as they are willing to spend money, anyone can eat this thing. So what kind of rarity is this?

Especially up and down in Tianchang County, it is a staple food that is essential for almost every household. And this thing can only be tasted by the squires with heads and faces in Hailing County...... Doesn't this mean that the squires of their Hailing County, including him, the county magistrate, can barely be compared to the people of Tianchang County?

Not to mention, Tianchang County's sweet potato practices are varied, and a new method will be introduced every ten days and half a month. And here, apart from boiling and baking, they have very little else. is that someone learned from the practice of Wei Ji Restaurant, and the taste is a lot worse than others.

They were beaten down again. Moreover, it was still compared to the whole of Tianchang County!

Cui Pu's slap was hard and heavy. Although he couldn't hear the sound, it hurt him until now.

And now, seeing that the name of 'Tianchang County Sweet Potato' is getting louder and louder, the squires of Hailing County are already ashamed to take out the sweet potatoes that are easy to grow to meet people. After all, who doesn't know that their things are all stolen from Tianchang County? If this thing is taken out, it will also be pointed out as a fake, which will be even more embarrassing!

Therefore, this year he has also been extraordinarily entangled. Although he was only in the fourth year of junior high school, he could already imagine how embarrassing the spring wine he would eat in Hailing County in the next few days.

"Wu Xianzun, do you think I'm right?" Cui Pu over there was still asking him with a smile.

What else can Wu Lixin do now? He could only grit his teeth with hatred: "That's right! What we have, we don't have to worry about you Cui Xianzun!"

"I'll just say, Wu County respects you as a smart person, where do you still need to ask for things from me? But if we don't prepare anything for one county, we can be less busy, and everyone can rest for a while. You don't know, we were busy from the beginning of the year to the end of the year last year, and we were really tired to death!" Cui Pu said with a grin.

He's showing off!

Wu Lixin wanted to bite him so much.

But in front of so many people, he still gritted his teeth and said: "When sweet potatoes are promoted this year, everyone knows how to plant them, and you will all be idle in the future." Do whatever you want when the time comes!"

And over there, when Mrs. Wu heard Wu Lixin's words, she couldn't help but roll her eyes, and the corners of her lips pulled slightly.

Mu Jiaojiao found out, and the corners of her lips suddenly fluttered, and she smiled lightly.
