This time, Cui Pu can be said to have fled.

It wasn't until he left the county king's mansion and rode down the street, feeling the blazing sun unique to Guangzhou at this time fall on his body, and remove all the chill that invaded his bones, that he finally felt that he was alive.

It's horrible, it's horrible!

Thinking about what Fang had seen and felt in the piano room just now, he couldn't help but shiver several times in succession.

I really didn't expect that the real face of the king of Hejian County would be like this. No wonder he doesn't go out to see people on weekdays.

Also, just like him, how long does it take to put on makeup before he can look like a person? If it were him, he would definitely be closed all day and night, and no one would be gone.

But...... Think about it this way: every year in order to play with the eldest lady, he has to dress up so ceremoniously. This year, in Guangzhou, the eldest lady was always there, does that mean that the status of the eldest lady in his heart is special and unique?

Thinking like this, he felt that the eldest lady's lovesickness was worth it. At least his heart for the eldest lady is no longer inferior to his own father.

Although he was still reluctant to send his daughter to this person's arms. But nothing can compare to the happiness of the baby daughter, right? As long as the eldest lady can show her smile again, he can endure this person who is not a ghost or a ghost county king!

It's just that today's experience is too shocking for him to bear alone. So when he returned to the mansion, he quickly informed Mu Jiaojiao of this.

When Mu Jiaojiao heard this, she couldn't help frowning.

"Completely white, without a trace of blood?" she muttered in a low voice, lowering her eyes and thinking, "I have seen a few cases of this disease, but if you combine your other statements, such as once you are excited, you can also recover a little human color, that is, it is not albinism." He also said that he had always been like this, but ordinary people would definitely not survive for three years when they encounter such a situation. ”

"Isn't this statement of feeding Gu with your body wrong?" asked Cui Pu.

Mu Jiaojiao shook her head. "This is also deceiving the layman. Gu is mainly a Gu worm that is not well manipulated, and it will indeed be eaten back. But do you think he can't be manipulated?"

"Not really. Cui Pu immediately shook his head.

The person who was able to torture his mother-in-law to death, and who also injected such a vicious Gu worm into Mu Jiaojiao's body, and tortured her for nearly twenty years, was an expert no matter how you looked at it.

"So, I suspect that he is not sick at all, but ...... Zhong Gu!"

"Zhong Gu?" Cui Pu was taken aback by her conclusion, "Isn't he a Gu cultivator himself?"

"Who said that a person who raises Gu can't be Gu? Maybe someone is more skilled than him, or maybe he was given it a long, long time ago. Mu Jiaojiao pondered.

But after thinking about it, there is still too little relevant information, and she has no way to make a judgment.

"I think we still have to find a way to explore the old bottom of the Hejian County King again. ”

"Well, I also feel very necessary. Cui Pu bowed his head. Today, the king of Hejian would choose to let him see his true face, what is this old man planning? Don't say that he just had a whim, anyway, the couple didn't believe it.

It's just that they will definitely not be able to do this kind of thing of checking people's old backgrounds in Guangzhou. Moreover, in fact, they had already asked someone to check it once before, but they found that the information of the king of Hejian was pitiful, and all they got were the ones that were circulated in the market, and there were not many at all. I tried to dig deeper, but I found that there seemed to be an invisible hand covering all of them, and they couldn't get out of it.

That's weird. What is the secret of this king of Hejian County, who can be protected so much?

So, when they make this decision now, they don't dare to have much hope, they just want to try again.

For a month, the couple posted and prepared everywhere, and before they knew it, the eldest lady's birthday had arrived.

Just a few days before his birthday, Guo Tingshi brought Guo Yao, Lu Guogong, E Guogong, Chang Taiyi and many old ministers who enjoyed the various benefits brought by Cui Pu in Yangzhou. The Cui family, the Mu family, the Cheng family, the Wei Chi family, and so on in Chang'an also sent people to send congratulatory gifts, and Mu Jiaojiao's apprentices and grandchildren gathered together, and Wang Qiqi and his wife also came from Xiatang County with their children. A group of people gathered together, which can be described as very lively.

Seeing these long-lost relatives, the eldest lady's mood was really high. It's just that Cui Pu still obviously saw a little loneliness in her eyes.

On the day of his birthday, seeing that the banquet was about to start, the king of Hejian still did not appear.

Cui Pu was anxious, and discussed with Mu Jiaojiao in a whisper: "If you don't wait any longer, he will definitely come." ”

The eldest lady raised her head slightly: "Aren't all the guests here?" Daddy and Auntie, let's have a banquet! Don't let Grandpa Guo and them wait in a hurry. ”

Cui Pu was stunned, and the eldest lady simply pulled one of them with one hand, turned around and walked back directly.

At this time, a loud shout finally came from outside - "The king of Hejian has arrived!"

It's coming!

Cui Pu hurriedly stopped: "Big lady, there are guests coming again, aren't you going to greet them?"

"I'm a little lady, how can I welcome a male guest?" the eldest lady said coldly, but her voice was not so gloomy, and her complexion was obviously softened a lot.

Sure enough, the king of Hejian is the cure for her illness!

Cui Pu finally had no choice but to accept this reality. "Okay, then Daddy will greet you. You and A-Niang are waiting here. Today you are a little birthday star, and the guests come to eat and drink for your face, and you must say hello to the guests!"

"Got it. The eldest lady responded coolly, and her feet did not move a step forward.

Seeing this, Cui Pu sighed again in his heart, and resigned himself to picking up the guests.

Today, the king of Hejian County is going to come out to meet people, so he naturally dresses up again. As always, he was graceful and handsome, with a light smile on his face, so modest and polite, and polite, which was completely different from the ghost Cui Pu saw in the piano room that time.

Fortunately, after so many days of self-regulation, Cui Pu has accepted this reality. So now, when he saw the king of Hejian again, he still smiled at him, although this smile was a little reluctant to look at it.

The king of Hejian also smiled at him and bowed his head.

The two of them exchanged a tacit glance and then looked away.

The front and back feet passed through the hanging flower gate, and the eldest lady and Mu Jiaojiao were still waiting there.

Seeing the eldest lady from afar, another flash of light flashed in the eyes of the king of Hejian County, and he quickly smiled at her.

The eldest lady bit her lip and was about to turn her head.

Mu Jiaojiao gently patted her on the shoulder: "Have you forgotten the rules that Mama Lu taught you?"

The eldest lady immediately held her head high, and Shi Shiran bowed down and saluted: "The little girl has seen the king of Hejian County." ”

The tone was cold, and when I heard it, I knew that I was still angry.

However, her willingness to see him and talk to him is already a great improvement. Thinking of what Cui Pu said that day, the smile on the face of the King of Hejian was even stronger. He smiled lightly again: "The eldest lady is exempt." ”

He took out a delicate small box and handed it over: "This is my birthday gift for you, can you see if you like it?"

"I don't have to look at it, I definitely like it. The eldest lady said, and handed the box to the maid behind her.

The King of Hejian smiled slightly, but still nodded. "If you like it, if you like. ”

Cui Pu hurriedly invited the king of Hejian to sit in.

Now, the guests have finally arrived, and the feast has officially begun.

Now that the people who came to the banquet were not outsiders, Cui Pu and Mu Jiaojiao did not prepare those well-behaved banquets. Instead, they picked some local Lingnan meals that are suitable for everyone to eat, plus some dishes they liked, accompanied by lychee wine brewed by Mu Jiaojiao herself.

When these things were served on the table, they were well received by the big guys.

Guo Tingshi even began to eat vegetables with chopsticks directly, drank wine in a big bowl, and laughed loudly: "It can be regarded as being able to let me eat a lot again! It's been more than half a year, and I haven't eaten such a delicious meal for a long time! Of course, this wine is also good, much stronger than the lychee wine you sent me before, and if you remember it in the future, send it to me, I don't want it brewed by others!"

Others also chimed in, naming Mu Jiaojiao to make it herself, insisting that only what she brewed was the best. Mu Jiaojiao agreed with a smile.

Just when the wine was hot, I saw Xiao Si'er running in from outside in a hurry. He whispered something in Cui Pu's ear, Cui Pu's face immediately sank, and he slapped the chopsticks on the table with a snap.

"Dare to make an accident on my daughter's birthday? Okay, I'll go meet him!"
