Chapter 229 The tigress is too scary

Miss Qu was hurt by her words. The pain of lovesickness for many days, and her weak body made her spit out a mouthful of blood and passed out.

Mayor Qian and the others swallowed their saliva, but they didn't come forward to be troublesome.

Qiao Mai pointed at the door, "Take your master and get out, if you dare to show up at my house in the future, if you behave like this again, I will treat her as a bandit and beat her to death."

Two maids, one carrying Miss Qu on her back, the other supporting her, went out of the courtyard and got into the carriage, and fled like the wind.

Qiao Mai yelled, "Close the door, if she dares to come again, she will beat me hard. She is a shameless thing. If she dares to make fun of my old lady during the Chinese New Year, I will never die of embarrassment."

Mayor Qian and County Magistrate Zhu both saw Qiao Mai's toughness, and their voices were a little trembling. The tigress is too scary.

"What's the matter?"

"Huh, what's the matter? You can ask him?"

Qiao Mai went to the kitchen angrily, leaving Yuan Jiaqi behind, so he had no choice but to explain the matter.

"So brother Yuan's peach blossoms are so prosperous?"

"It's not because I have potential. Now that I'm an official, I was a poor boy with a child. A rich girl like her wouldn't even pay me a second glance."

"That girl really has the courage to bravely break into the tiger's den for you?"

"Stop teasing me, the lady is angry!"

"Siblings and sisters are really bad."

"I just like the way she looks, so cute, hum!"

When the Yuan family said this, several people almost vomited. It is only now that Lu Sanniang has just realized what the real evil is.

It gave her another level of understanding of Qiao Mai, and several people sat down and asked.

"Who is that girl?"

Yuan Jiaqi sighed, "She is the daughter of a well-known wealthy gentry in She County."

"He's just a businessman, nothing fancy."

"A relative in her family is a third-rank official in the capital."

County magistrate Zhu chuckled, "The most indispensable thing in the capital is officials. There is a saying, there are as many dignitaries in the capital as dogs, and the small and big officials leave easily."

"Haha, Brother Zhu, you are so funny!"

"My family is also from the capital, so I naturally know."

"Do you have a senior official in your family?"

"Of course there is. My old man is a cabinet scholar in the capital. Is he good or not? She is as low-key as a person in the capital, and she is a **** who uses the third-rank official to show her prestige in the backcountry and rob people. She is an official man." , It’s really outrageous, I’ll write a letter later and ask my old man to refer to him.”

"Yo, I can't tell, County Magistrate Zhu still has this family background."

"Ah, you have all of them, can I not? Don't say anything else, let's just talk about you, Mayor Qian. Your elder brother is also a famous figure in the capital, and you, County Magistrate Yuan, don't think I don't know. Your family This old lady here is a first-rank imperial lady, and her natal family, Grand Master Pang, is also very powerful."

"Yuan's heart is for the people, and it has nothing to do with the power behind him."

"Fart, let me tell you, if you don't have power, a good official will not last long. You must have power to do practical things for the people and the country, otherwise everything will be empty talk"

"Hey, what Yuan said is not to bully others, relying on the mountain? Of course it is necessary."

"Sly head!"

While talking, the women began to arrange dishes in the side hall.

Magistrate Zhu hurriedly got up, scratched his head at the door, looked towards the side hall, swallowing while watching.

"I said Brother Yuan, your food is really good, you can't get these in the north."

"Of course, the cooks are all trained by my wife herself. If you want to eat Brother Zhu, come here, but don't leave empty-handed."

County Magistrate Zhu curled his lips, "Don't worry, Mr. Zhu still has rules, and he will never eat free food when he goes to anyone's house."

"Hey, my family can come and eat for free." Mayor Qian laughed at him.

Magistrate Zhu glared, "You pretend I don't know, how much favor did you give Miss Qiao in private?"

Mayor Qian was afraid that Lu Sanniang would misunderstand, "Madam Qiao saved my life, so she said she shouldn't?"

"She seems to have saved your elder brother's life, right? I heard that he has been sick at home for a long time, and you sent someone to deliver the medicine once, and his illness gradually got better?"

"Is your news good?"

"Of course, how can I become a county magistrate if I don't work well? In the area under my jurisdiction, I know all the shady things about anyone.

Yuan Jia laughed, "Taught!"

While talking, Qiao Mai came, "Everyone, take your seats."

Magistrate Zhu hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, yes, take a seat, take a seat, let's eat, this taste is too fragrant, I can't stand it."

Seeing him drooling, everyone made fun of him.

Magistrate Zhu was able to bend and stretch, so he didn't care about these things. He sat down at the table and reached out to pick up the jug and handed it to Master Liu.

"You followed me to enjoy the glory, and you are responsible for pouring the wine!"

"Yes, my lord!"

Master Liu said in his heart that he is really enjoying himself. Such a banquet is not easily seen in the capital.

When he was pouring the wine, the smell of the wine almost made him drool into the wine glass. Magistrate Zhu gave him a disgusted look, and quickly wiped his saliva with his sleeve.

The dishes are ready and the wine is full, County Magistrate Zhu asked.

"Where is the old lady?"

Qiao Mai waved his hand and said, "Her old man said that she won't come to the front at noon, and asked the kitchen to send it to her."

"That's right, when I get older, I don't like to make do with the juniors."

Mayor Qian rolled his eyes at him, "Be careful with what you say!"

"Haha, I forgot about you, you are still young, not old at all."

Xiuhong and Xiuyu went to the kitchen to eat. On the table were County Magistrate Zhu, Mayor Qian, and six people from the Qiao family.

A total of ten people, sixteen dishes, seafood, meat and vegetables are matched, the red one is seafood, the green one is vegetables, and the golden one is meat.

Magistrate Zhu didn't bother to clink wine glasses with others, and quickly picked up the dishes with chopsticks.

Don't look at him eating fast, but he doesn't look vulgar, and his movements are very elegant.

Here, Mayor Qian peeled shrimps and crabs for Lu Sanniang, and here Yuan’s family peeled crabs for Qiao Mai, all with their wives. Magistrate Zhu looked at this and then that, and decided to bring his wife next time.

It was just his wife who stripped him. He had never done this before, and he thought it was immoral for a man to serve a woman. But now looking at the two lovers in front of him, the cold has nothing to do with it, and he sees the love in them even more.

County magistrate Zhu was envious while eating, "I said, brother and sister, is your food going to the public?"

"Don't spread it to the outside world, only eat it at home. The recipe has already been sold to the Wang family, so don't make up your mind."

"It's no wonder the Wang family makes so much money. It turns out that it's all prescriptions from you."

Qiao Mai smiled without humming, County Magistrate Zhu tilted his head and asked Mayor Qian again.

"Then did you take some of your pastry recipes away from her?"

"It's really lenient, eat yours, you treat this as your court, and try the case, if this is the case, you get out as soon as possible!"

Mayor Qian rolled his eyes at him, County Magistrate Zhu chuckled, and quickly stuffed food into his mouth, and then Bada took a sip of liquor.

"This wine is really fragrant, brother and sister, when you leave, why don't you give my brother two bottles?"

"Then I will give you a jar of five catties, but if you say that I am such a good wine, does it count as bribery?"

"Can't I buy it?"

"One thousand taels and one altar!"

"Are you stealing money?"

"Don't buy pull down!"

"Buy, buy, buy, I really convinced you."

Mayor Qian rolled his eyes at him, "Just be content with it, she paid 1,500 taels for this wine, and if you charge you 1,000 taels, you'll be rich."

"Really, really?"

"snort!"

The children ate in silence, silently looking at the county magistrate who looked like a bumpkin on the opposite side, and hurriedly finished the rice in the bowl.

"Mother, Daddy, we are full."

"Go play by yourself!"

"yes!"

Before the child left, he glanced at County Magistrate Zhu, and that look made County Magistrate Zhu uncomfortable.

He immediately slowed down his eating, indicating that he has seen the world, you little guys don't need to pity me.
