Chapter 248: The Cottage Appeared
"My mother!"
A teenager shouted in a lost voice.
I thought that this was a quiet little lady who didn't eat the fireworks of the world! Who knew that as soon as she made a move, she would directly ask for her life! What kind of lotus fairy is this? It is clear that it is almost the same as asking for life!
"Mother, do you have such a young mother?" Mu Jiaojiao lifted her hat and smiled at him. The golden needle in his hand did not stop, and immediately stabbed at another person.
The group was so frightened that they hurriedly turned around and ran, calling Sui Hu to come over and help.
The entourage hurriedly left Cui Pu and rushed here. It's just that they haven't taken a few steps before two graceful figures fly from a distance. The pair of girls stood in front of Mu Jiaojiao, and with three strokes and two blows, they knocked the group of people and the teenagers all down.
It was only at this time that Cheng Jiuniang shouted loudly into the distance: "Someone!
As a result, the sound of footsteps came from all directions. But in the blink of an eye, dozens of people surrounded them.
The teenagers were shocked again, and hurried to explain: "It's all a misunderstanding......!
But where can the indignant people still listen? I don't know who shouted-"They dare to beat the county magistrate like this, they are simply looking for death!" Brothers, everyone, let's avenge the county magistrate!"
"Good!"
Then a group of people swarmed up, surrounded the group in the center, and beat them half to death.
When the people were almost beaten, a group of officials walked in through the crowd. When he saw Cui Pu, who was beaten and his nose was swollen, he was shocked: "County master, who dares to do something to you?"
Cui Pu coldly pointed to the young men who were lying on the ground.
"Assaulting the imperial court officials is an unforgivable crime!" the head catcher shouted, "Brothers, arrest this group of gangsters, put them in prison, and interrogate them after the county magistrate recovers from his injuries!"
"Yes!" the officials hurriedly stepped forward and tied up the group.
The development in front of them took a sharp turn, and the teenagers' minds couldn't turn for a while. They shouted again, but unexpectedly, the official grabbed a handful of grass and gagged them, and dragged them away.
The agility of the movement was in stark contrast to the speed with which they came.
The perpetrator was taken down, and the head catcher stepped forward: "It's too late, please forgive the county and Mrs."
"It's okay, let's go back!" Mu Jiaojiao said lightly, stretching out her hand to Cui Pu.
Seeing this Rou Yi who took the initiative to send it to his eyes, Cui Pu was stunned for a moment, and his eyes immediately overflowed with endless ecstasy. He quickly grabbed her hand and nodded repeatedly, "Yes." The good mood is gone, what are you going to do? Let's go back, let's go back!"
Along the way, he didn't let go of Mu Jiaojiao's hand again.
Cheng Jiuniang and Mu Yi saw it in their eyes, and both of them breathed a sigh of relief, so they also turned their heads and laughed.
Back at the mansion, Cui Pu hurriedly pulled Mu Jiaojiao back to the room. Hongdou took the medicinal powder, and Mu Jiaojiao took it with her own hands: "Let me come!"
Hongdou was stunned, and quickly handed over the things to her.
Holding the handkerchief and dipping it in water, she first planned to wipe Cui Pu's face, but she didn't want Cui Pu to take the opportunity to hold her hand again.
"Not mad at me?" he whispered.
"You let me give you the medicine first. Mu Jiaojiao said.
"No, you answer my question first. You took the initiative to save me today, and now you take the initiative to give me medicine, does that mean that you are no longer angry with me?"
"Actually, I'm not angry anymore. Mu Jiaojiao said in a low voice.
Cui Pu was stunned.
Mu Jiaojiao said again: "I always knew in my heart that you were doing this for my own good, how could I not know that this is the simplest and most effective method? I can't do it if I sacrifice my children just to avoid this pain that is only once a year. I've always been hoping that maybe Daddy will find me the last medicine tomorrow, so that I can kill that bug with medicine, and now all I need to do is endure it a little longer. ”
"You're just stubborn. If you don't take the antidote this year, you'll have three times as many seizures as last year. Last year you were already in pain like that, and if you triple it, you will really die! Even if you barely get through it, I will be scared to death! Anyway, I will never allow you to suffer like this again. Cui Pu said in a deep voice.
Mu Jiaojiao stuck out her tongue: "This is what your Chang Taiyi told you?"
"When I was in Chang'an a few years ago, I specially asked my father-in-law everything about this Gu worm in you. He couldn't stand my questioning, so he said it all. Then combined with what Doctor Chang knew, as well as some biographies I took out from the Cui family's big study, plus the information you hid in the third cabinet at the head of the bed, I knew everything. Cui Pu said slowly.
Mu Jiaojiao smiled bitterly.
"You all know, you can still endure until this time, and you have been discussing with my father and them for so long behind my back. Your city is really getting deeper and deeper. ”
"I'm doing it for your own good, too. "Cui Pu is serious.
"I know, I just can't make a decision to say that I'm soft-hearted, or to say that I'm hypocritical, and let me give this child's life and take it with my own hands. You did it for me, even if it was for my own good, but it was a disservice to me. It's just that I see what you've done for me these days, and I have my sister by my side, and the resentment in my heart slowly fades. But there is still a breath in my chest, it is just blocked there, I can't go up or down, it makes me feel uncomfortable, and I want to hit you every day. But if you want me to do it to you, I can't bear it. So today, since someone has helped me hit you, my anger has disappeared. Mu Jiaojiao said softly.
It turned out that it took a long time, and everything was because of this breath?
Cui Pu couldn't cry or laugh.
"I knew that it was just for this reason that I would have called someone to beat me in front of you in the first place, so I wouldn't have suffered for so many days!" he cried out and suddenly laughed again, "But just now, you were still very distressed to see me being beaten, right?"
"Yes, the child is gone, but you are still standing in front of me. Although I hated you to death that day, you are still the closest and most important person I have in this world. Mu Jiaojiao said slowly.
"So, now you're not angry, that incident is in the past, right?" Cui Pu summed up in a simple sentence.
"Yes. Mu Jiaojiao nodded, "Now, can I give you medicine?"
"No, you let me hug first. Cui Pu hurriedly stretched out his hand.
Mu Jiaojiao paused, and slowly sent herself into his arms. Cui Pu hurriedly hugged her and slowly let out a long breath: "I haven't held you like this for a long time!"
Mu Jiaojiao closed her eyes and only snuggled quietly in his arms and said nothing.
He hugged her for a long time, until the excitement in his heart slowly subsided, and the pain in his body began to dominate, he let go of his hand with a grin, and said with a pitiful expression: "Those people are so rude, they are so heavy, they hurt me to death!
"Okay, got it!" Mu Jiaojiao was speechless, and sure enough, he carefully treated all the scars on his body.
In fact, he only suffered some skin injuries. After all, those people are on someone else's territory, and they don't dare to make any too outrageous moves. There were some areas on his body that looked bruised, but they weren't serious. After rubbing the medicine, it will be fine in two days. On the contrary, it was that group of people, who must have been beaten to death by Qingfeng Qingyun this time. The breeze is clear, and she has seen the methods of those rangers, which are to pick out the fragile places on people's bodies and attack, which hurts people, and they can't leave a mark, real internal injuries.
Under her careful service, Cui Pu still hummed very pretentiously.
"Those bastards, from Hailing County to my Tianchang County, dare to be so arrogant, it's disgusting! Go back and wait for me, I must teach them a good lesson, so that they know how powerful I am!" he clenched his fists and shouted indignantly.
"Isn't the reason why you took the initiative to beat them up in the first place because they came from Hailing County?" asked Mu Jiaojiao with a smile.
"Who said that? That's because they're all staring at you!" Cui Pu immediately turned over and hugged her waist again, "You are mine, if you want to stare at it, I can only stare at it, what qualifications do they have?"
"Is there only one reason?" Mu Jiaojiao didn't believe it.
"Of course not. However, this is the main reason. Cui Pu swore solemnly.
"Well, I'll trust you for now. So now, what are you going to do with this group of people?"
"Of course, I notified the county magistrate of Hailing County to come over and ransom people!" Cui Pu suddenly smiled proudly, "But during the time he came, I also had to ask them about the recent situation in Hailing County by the way." ”
Mu Jiaojiao raised her eyebrows. "Over there in Hailing County?"
Cui Pu fixed his head: "That guy hasn't tossed any more moths for so long, and he has been polite to me when they met a few times before, it's too weird." It's not his style. If he does this, he will either be scared of me - this is not very realistic. So there's only one situation left - this kid must be secretly holding back again! It's just that he's been clever lately, and he's been guarding him all around, and the people who called me haven't found out anything. I'm at a loss for what to do! Now, since someone has volunteered to send me to the door, do you think I'll give up this great opportunity?"
"Definitely not. Mu Jiaojiao shook her head.
"That's right, you agree with my decision, how can I let them go so easily?" Cui Pu said, leaning on her and smirking proudly.
Seemingly infected by his smile, Mu Jiaojiao also shook her head and laughed.
Cui Pu originally just wanted to get some of Wu Lixin's whereabouts from the mouths of this group of people. As a result, who would have thought that at noon the next day, the head catcher found him with a gloomy face and whispered a few words in his ear. Cui Pu's face was immediately covered with a layer of black mist.
"I'm so angry! I'm really angry! The surnamed Wu didn't know where to get a batch of sweet potato seedlings, not to mention planting them himself, and even distributed a few plants to the squires in Hailing County to plant!"
Mu Jiaojiao was also a little surprised when she heard this: "Haven't you always done a good job of taking precautions in this matter?
"That's exactly what I couldn't figure out. At the beginning, few people paid attention to the sweet potatoes in Liujia Village, and most of them were transported to Chang'an after harvesting, and only a few hundred catties remained, and the squires in Tianchang County were gone. Now the round of new planting is all carried out under the supervision of the Ministry of Household Industry, and I have been asking people to keep an eye on it, and even if someone wants to steal it, it will only steal three or two plants at most. But according to those people, a small half an acre has been planted in Wuli Xinfu alone! Coupled with twenty or thirty famous squires up and down Hailing County, how many are you counting? There must be no less than two hundred!" Cui Pu kept pacing back and forth indoors, "This shows that there are ghosts in us!"
"And have you guessed who it is now?"
"I just analyzed with Mr. Zhuang for a long time, and called a few suspicious people to ask them one by one, but found that none of them were them. Cui Pu shook his head in frustration.
Mu Jiaojiao also gradually narrowed her eyes. "If that's the case, then you can only wait for Wu Lixin to come over, and you can ask him in person. ”
"Yes, I can only ask in person. Cui Pu gritted his teeth and said, "That person had better make my bones harder." When I know who he is, I must arrest him, cut him with a thousand knives, and break his body into thousands of pieces!"
