Chapter 138: Let Me Take Your Pulse

The two hurriedly went in, and they saw broken porcelain pieces on the ground. Gong was squatting on the ground and picking it up in vain, and Zheng stood aside with an embarrassed expression.

Mu Jiaojiao hurriedly stepped forward and pulled Gong up. "Auntie, what are you doing here?"

Gong turned around and saw that it was her, and immediately pretended to be calm again: "It's nothing, I just accidentally broke a cup." ”

"If you break the cup, you have your own maid to clean it up, why do you do it yourself, what if you cut your hand?" Mu Jiaojiao asked lightly.

"This ...... Isn't it my first time here? I broke the cup the first time I came, and it was always bad. I was in a hurry, and I didn't think about it so much. Gong Shi laughed dryly.

Mu Jiaojiao shook her head speechlessly: "Such a trivial matter, where is your turn to do it, Auntie? ”

"Ah, yes? Indeed, we've been here for a long time, and we've had two cups of tea. It's time to go, it's time to go. Gong responded again and again, but a pair of eyes looked towards Mrs. Cui, and her eyes looked like she was looking forward to something.

Mrs. Cui's face was solemn: "My mother likes this tea set so much, and it's a pity to drop one now." That's it, Lady Lang, go to the treasury and take out the set of teacups depicting the spring light in February and give it to your mother-in-law! ”

"Mother-in-law, what's so embarrassing?" Gong's eyes suddenly sparkled, but his mouth pretended to be reserved.

Mrs. Cui smiled slightly. "It's just a set of cups, it's nothing. You have given us a great favor by marrying your daughter who has been pampered for many years into our family. With just one set of cups, where can it be as good as Rokuro's daughter-in-law?"

"Ma'am, you think too highly of her. The girl Liuniangzi has been withdrawn since she was a child, and she doesn't like to play with her sisters. I'm so heartbroken for her. Now that she is married, I worry about her day and night, lest she be a bad daughter-in-law and annoy my aunt and uncle. In the future, Madame, you will have to discipline her for many generations. Gong hurriedly pretended to be worried, and taught Mu Jiaojiao with a straight face, "Now that you are someone else's daughter-in-law, you can no longer be the same as in your mother's family." You must remember to be filial to your aunt, take your husband as the sky, and don't let me do my own thing anymore and don't listen to people's words, you know? If you make a big mistake, your uncle will punish you, and our Mu family will not cover it!"

Seeing Mu Jiaojiao, she still can't stop feeling distressed - half of her family wealth!

Mu Jiaojiao was speechless for a long time.

Now the Gong family shouldn't have known about Mu You giving them two more shops, right? Otherwise, where would she still be able to calm down and teach her a lesson like this? She would have already started to die again!

Seeing this, Zheng hurriedly smiled and said, "My mother-in-law is wrong. Since the sixth brother and sister came to our house, they have been filial to their aunts and sisters, and we all like her very much. She is sensible and well-behaved, not to mention my aunt, even I am reluctant to let her suffer a little harm, who is willing to punish her? My mother-in-law is certainly for her good, but she shouldn't think about things so seriously, our Cui family is also a family that talks about rules. ”

Gong's face was red and white when he was said. She hurriedly turned her head away. "Is that so? That couldn't be better. ”

Knowing that the Zheng family and Mrs. Cui were on Mu Jiaojiao's side, she was full of discomfort, and hurriedly said goodbye and said that she was leaving.

Mrs. Cui left a few words, and then said to Zheng: "I have a little headache now, so I won't send my mother." Dalang's daughter-in-law, you and Liulang's daughter-in-law will send your mother-in-law out together!"

"Yes. Zheng responded with a smile, and then took Mu Jiaojiao's hand, "Sixth brother and sister, let's send our mother out together!"

Mu Jiaojiao nodded hurriedly, but she was thinking in her heart-what did the Gong family do when they arrived, so that Mrs. Cui was so unhappy that she didn't get up to give it away? Mrs. Cui is the most polite.

After the three of them went out, Zheng asked someone to fetch the set of teacups depicting the spring light in February, and handed it to Gong with his own hands: "This set of cups was painted by my eldest man when he was fifteen or sixteen years old, and he sent it to be fired together with my uncle's picture of the lotus pond in West Lake." Although it is of little value, it is still okay to put it at home, and please don't dislike it. ”

"Don't dislike, don't dislike. How can I dislike the picture drawn by Zhuang Yuanlang himself, how can I dislike it? Take this set of things back, and I will have to offer it high!" Gong happily took the teacup and held it in his arms.

Zheng's eyes flashed slightly, but he still smiled lightly. But Mu Jiaojiao obviously noticed that her smile was a little stiff.

After sending Gong to the car, and seeing the car drive out of the second door, Zheng turned around, stared deeply at Mu Jiaojiao for a long time, and then sighed faintly: "Sixth brother and sister, you were really ...... back then Hey, it's not easy. ”

Mu Jiaojiao smiled lightly. "Sister-in-law is not easy today. ”

"I can't compare to you. If my mother's family loses my face in public like this, I'm afraid that I will lose my face!" Zheng shook his head, then shook her hand again, "Don't take today's matter to heart." Who in the family doesn't know, you are the most obedient and sensible. ”

"Thank you, sister-in-law, I know. Mu Jiaojiao smiled and nodded.

The two of them were talking, and then returned to Mrs. Cui to restore their lives. When Mrs. Cui learned that Gong was gone, she also let out a sigh. "The rhombic cake made in the kitchen today is good, and I will ask someone to send one to Liulang's daughter-in-law in a while. Rokuro said that you were unwell when you saw the wind last night, so you don't have to get up early to greet me in the past two days. ”

This is to appease her! It can be seen that Gong's previous act of asking for the tea set drawn by Cui Ge Lao in public was infuriating. Mrs. Choi would rather fall than give it to her.

However, although she was extremely dissatisfied with Gong, Mrs. Cui was still very satisfied with her. Therefore, although she suppressed Gong in person, she turned around and gave Mu Jiaojiao compensation, which means that she and Gong are treated separately.

Mu Jiaojiao knew this, and hurriedly saluted and thanked her: "Thank you Auntie for your love." ”

"All right, I'm all right here, you all go down! I'm tired too, I need to rest. Mrs. Choi rubbed her temples and yawned weakly.

Mu Jiaojiao and Cui Pu hurriedly said goodbye.

The two of them said goodbye to the Gong family at the door, and on the way back, Mu Jiaojiao found that Cui Pu was a little depressed.

"What's wrong with you?" she whispered.

"I just told my mother-in-law the purpose of my father-in-law's visit, and I also gave her all the title deeds. Cui Pu said weakly.

Mu Jiaojiao's head was bright. "That's what you should have done. So what about A-Niang's reaction?"

"Ah Niang took the title deed, but the body deed was returned. She said that since my father-in-law handed over the shop to me, it was better to leave it to me to take care of it. If you make money, tell me to take it back and put it in the public treasury. If I lose, I'll take it myself, and she doesn't care. ”

The same as she thought. Mu Jiaojiao said, "Isn't this good?

"I'm not dissatisfied. But...... I can't figure it out, father-in-law and aunt, why do they suddenly trust me so much? With such two big shops handed over to me to take care of, they don't worry?"

"You're such a big person, it's time for you to be self-reliant. Daddy handed over the shop to you, that was because of his considerations, and this money was nothing to the Mu family. And A-Niang also took this opportunity to give you a practice hand, if you can grow up because of this, it will be a road in the future, it is better than relying on your family for the rest of your life, and receiving that meager monthly money every month. This is A-Niang's painstaking arrangement for you, you just have to rest assured and do it boldly. Now that there are the Mu family and the Cui family behind it, it will be difficult for you to make it bad!" Mu Jiaojiao smiled weakly.

Why didn't he understand what she said? It's just that Cui Pu still felt a little unsteady in his heart. The happiness had come so suddenly, and he still couldn't believe it was real.

After all, he has been like this for more than ten years before, and he has long expected that he will be a muddy commodity that can't support the wall, and he should get by like this for the rest of his life. But now, his father-in-law suddenly gave him such a burden, and even A-Niang, who had always been inattentive to him, gave him absolute confidence. Such a heavy trust suddenly fell from the sky, like a big mountain, which made him both excited and a little overwhelmed.

To put it bluntly, he has never done such a thing, and he still doesn't know how to do it, and he is a little bottomless!

But after thinking about it again, he was now the owner of the two shops, and he was so excited that he secretly rubbed his hands, and vowed in his heart that he must do a good job, so that all those who thought he was a gentleman would look at him differently!

So in the next few days, Cui Pu devoted himself to studying the business of the shop, and he couldn't even take care of eating, and he forgot to sleep. This appearance of forgetting to sleep and eat made Mu Jiaojiao speechless.

Then, it came to the day agreed with Guo Jingzhi and Guo Tingshi.

But on this day, in addition to Guo Tingshi, he was accompanied by the little boy of the day, as well as a middle-aged man, and an old man with a childish face. Mu Jiaojiao smelled a shallow medicinal fragrance from him, and couldn't help but look at him more.

Unexpectedly, the old man glanced at her coldly, and a cold snort escaped from his nose, and he immediately stopped looking.

Did she offend him?

But at this time, the middle-aged man took a step forward in the morning and bowed to Mu Jiaojiao and made a big salute: "Under Guo Ziyi, thank you to Mrs. Cui Liushao for saving my father in danger that day." Great kindness, there is no way to repay, as long as Mu Niangzi has a word in the future, our Guo family will be a grass ring, and Mu Niangzi will not give up!"

It turns out that he is Guo Ziyi?

Mu Jiaojiao's heart was shocked, but she didn't expect that the person she had been thinking about for a long time would actually see it at this time today. She was greatly surprised, and quickly bowed down to return the salute.

After his son thanked Mu Jiaojiao on his behalf, Guo Tingshi also said with a smile: "Young Lady Cui Liu, we have nothing to do today. In addition to thanking you, I also want to ask you what kind of medicine was given to me that day? After I went back, I cut off a small piece of it every day and took it internally every day according to your instructions, and I found that the old wounds that had tormented me for many years had not recurred! I gave some to my child, and the wound on his arm also improved significantly. Where did you get the magic medicine, and do you have any more, can you give us some more?"

"The medicine is definitely there. But just like last time, you need to take money in exchange. Mu Jiaojiao said.

"That's nature, that's nature. Mu Niangzi, how many of these medicines do you have on hand, we all want them. How much is it, whatever you offer!" Guo Tingshi said busily.

"There's really not much medicine right now. I made it all by myself, but I've been feeling unwell lately and can't do it anymore. If you want more, you'll have to wait for half a month. ”

"It will take half a month?" Guo Tingshi was a little disappointed.

The old man who came with him immediately lowered his voice when he heard this: "Pretending to be and hoarding is really what a woman does." This kind of people, the old man disdains to be in the company of them!"

It seems that this person has a deep prejudice against her! Mu Jiaojiao walked over slowly. "What is the name of this old man? I don't know what the little girl has done wrong, please make it clear. ”

"Do you still need me to make it clear, you know what you do yourself!" the old man said coldly.

Mu Jiaojiao blinked. "Just now, I told the truth, so why should I pretend? I am indeed unwell, and I have been recuperating in bed for the past two days, and today I am better. I see that you are also a doctor, and you should be able to see that I am not deliberately pretending to be sick and pushing back. ”

The old man casually swept his gaze to her face. And it was this right look that fixed his gaze, and his eyes were full of shock.

"You...... Stretch out your hand and let me take your pulse!" As he spoke, his hand had already taken the initiative to grab Mu Jiaojiao's hand.
