Chapter 127: Somewhat Stupid
"Pay back the money...six thousand taels..."
The little girl looked fierce and stretched out her little hand towards Qi Caiwei.
Falsely accusing my mother and drugging my brothers...
This mother and daughter are so bad.
I should have known better than to give in and let the prefect give them a good beating...
Qi Caiwei glanced at the financiers in the room with a guilty conscience. The resentful looks in their eyes made her feel like a huge stone was blocking her heart.
Although most of these people need her help, no one likes to have someone else hold their power against them.
Looking at the little thing again, with its innocent eyes, she became even more annoyed.
She is so young and yet she says such things. If no one taught her, she would never believe it even if you beat her to death.
But why did Lu Qingyao want to inquire about the family affairs of these ladies? Or did she notice something?
Thinking of this, Qi Caiwei became uneasy.
Gritting his teeth, he said, "Aunt Mei, give it to them."
Qin Su took the banknotes with one hand, rubbed them open, and found six notes with a face value of one thousand taels each.
"Oh! Miss Qi is truly generous..."
After saying that, he carried Jiang Miaomiao downstairs without looking back, and gave Shopkeeper Lou a warning look at the stairs.
The shopkeeper trembled all over when he saw it.
Qi Caiwei and her daughter talked their mouths off, but they couldn't eliminate the grudges these financial backers had towards her.
I had no choice but to turn the tables and go to each family to give gifts and apologize.
Then, each company promised one thing.
As for whether it can be fulfilled, it can only be left to fate...
In the carriage.
Qin Su held the little girl's face and asked solemnly: "Miaomiao, tell me, where did you overhear what you just said?"
The little girl spoke very convincingly, but her intuition told her that the kid was lying.
She definitely didn't eavesdrop.
It is most likely that kid Cui Xingzhou.
Jiang Miaomiao blinked her bright eyes and looked at Aunt Qin.
"Brother Cui drank some wine and said it was from the young lady in the brothel...Auntie, do they have candied haws in the brothel?"
I'm sorry, Brother Cui!
I will definitely let Aunt Xiuxiu make you something delicious to compensate you. After all, no one will believe you if you call me the eldest brother or the second brother.
"Hehe, there's no candied haws there, so children can't go there!"
Qin Su's brows twitched.
This kid is indeed lawless!
But by some strange coincidence, a good thing happened.
The little guy is quite clever. Even at such a young age, he can actually apply what he has learned and even come up with a counter-espionage plan...
It was so rare that I couldn't help but give the little guy a kiss on the head.
Suddenly I thought of something.
"Miaomiao, what else did Brother Cui say? Did he tell me where Uncle Chen Qian's private money is hidden?"
Jiang Miaomiao shook her little head, leaned crookedly on Aunt Qin and pretended to sleep.
If she continued to ask, she would not be able to bear it any longer.
It was already evening when Lu Qingyao and Xiuxiu came back.
She looked at her two sons who were sleeping soundly, and then at the six thousand taels of silver notes Qin Su handed to her.
I don’t know whether to cry or laugh!
These six thousand taels were the last straw that broke the camel's back.
I wanted to keep it pressed...
Qi Caiwei and her daughter are the bait on the fishhook.
The frame-up in the capital, the ambush on the way to Jiangzhou, the bandits in Taoxi Village, and now Jiang Zijin's murder...
One by one.
Keep them all in mind.
Could have killed her.
But I just want to make them live a life worse than death!
Of course, little Miaomiao didn't know what her mother was thinking, she just felt that her mother's eyes were a little sharp.
"Sister, the doctor is here." Xiuxiu invited the doctor to take her brothers' pulses.
After the doctor took her pulse, he said, "Madam, the young masters are fine. They probably have a low alcohol tolerance and drank too much strong liquor."
"Strong liquor?" After hearing this, Lu Qingyao quickly asked the maid to cook some sobering soup.
"Doctor, can you tell what kind of liquor was consumed?"
"It looks like soju..."
Lu Qingyao pinched her eyebrows.
The medicine was not given, but this liquor is a famous strong liquor with a very strong alcoholic effect. How could the children withstand it!
The world is dangerous and people's hearts are unpredictable. It's better to teach them a lesson.
"Burp~~Burp~~"
Jiang Miaomiao suddenly burped involuntarily.
Still feeling a little embarrassed in front of outsiders, he shrank into his mother's arms.
Lu Qingyao smiled as she looked at her daughter's round belly and touched it.
He frowned slightly. How much did he eat?
"Can you please help my daughter check if she has eaten anything?"
The old doctor took Jiang Miaomiao's pulse, looked at the little girl's belly with a smile, and touched his beard, "The little girl is fine, she just ate too much..."
Jiang Miaomiao: “…”
She doesn't eat much.
The old doctor must be a quack.
The baby's belly looks like this because the abdominal muscles are weak and the abdominal organs develop rapidly, so the baby's belly will swell up after eating a little bit of food.
Yeah! That's it.
After the doctor left.
The three brothers slept soundly and didn't wake up until dinner time.
Although Lu Qingyao was a little annoyed with Cui Xingzhou, she still invited him to stay for dinner because of his warm heart.
"Aunt, my uncle asked me to pick up my aunt tomorrow, so I'll go back first." Cui Xingzhou didn't have the face to eat, so he found an excuse to slip away.
It was so embarrassing. He went there in a rage, but ended up being knocked down by a glass of wine. In the end, he only saved his face with the help of a two or three-year-old girl.
He covered his face and ran back to Cui's house, and knelt down in the ancestral hall.
No matter how strict my uncle was with his students, he was very tolerant with his grandchildren, at least more tolerant than my father and mother.
But the prerequisite is that you must take the initiative to admit your mistakes.
My aunt said that everyone makes mistakes, and only those who can admit their mistakes and correct them are good children.
Sure enough, my aunt asked Aunt Qin to come.
"Sixth brother, go and have your meal. The old lady has something to tell you."
Cui Xingzhou immediately got up, put his arm around Qin Su's, and said coquettishly, "Aunt Qin must have pleaded for me in front of my uncles and aunts, right?"
"Stop joking and go quickly. Don't make them wait anxiously." Qin Su poked his forehead.
This guy is kind-hearted, but a little naive.
Not only did he almost drown himself, but he was also tricked...
Seeing his nephew's foolishness, Master Cui couldn't bear to scold him. He said with a stern face, "Sit down and eat."
Old Mrs. Cui couldn't help but laugh. "Alright, come sit down and eat. I've sent a message to your parents. You'll eat at your aunt's place today. I've asked the chef to make your favorite roasted lamb."
Cui Xingzhou then happily sat down. His uncles and aunts came from the capital and had light tastes. He was also afraid that the younger generations would feel restrained, so he ate alone.
But he just loves to eat with them.
It is easy to choke to death when eating with parents.
If you can't eat more than a few bites of a meal, you'll be scolded.
No matter how good the food is, who still has an appetite!
Cui Xingzhou put a piece of stewed mutton into the bowls of Master Cui and the old lady, then asked, "Uncle, aunt, do you have anything to tell your grandson?"
Old Mrs. Cui also put a piece of meat into his bowl and said, "Your aunt and uncle are coming to Jiangzhou to celebrate the New Year this year. Please go and check on them for us..."
Cui Xingzhou didn't expect that his words would come true, and his aunt would really come tomorrow.
"Aunt forgot, I was originally going to go with my parents."
Why do I have to give you special instructions?
Imperial Tutor Cui spoke up, "Go ahead and don't let anyone find out..."
