Chapter 215
Early the next morning, Cui Pu woke up with a dull pain in his arms and lower lip.

However, he felt that his chest was heavier, as if he was pressing a big rock.

He hurriedly opened his eyes, and when he saw the sleeping little head leaning against his chest, the corners of his lips curled up again, and a faint smile burst out of his eyes involuntarily.

Under his gaze, Mu Jiaojiao also slowly opened his eyes.

But when she met his gaze, she immediately lowered her face and snorted coldly.

Cui Pu's heart skipped a beat all of a sudden, memories of last night came flooding back, and he yelled in his heart that it's not good!

"My lady, I was wrong!" He hurriedly got up, hid in the corner of the bed and curled up into a ball, "Just because I have been tossed into this appearance, please forgive me! Dare!"

Mu Jiaojiao looked at him coldly. "You knew that Princess Tang Chang would look for you last night, didn't you?"

"...Yes." Cui Pu nodded honestly.

"But, you didn't tell me in advance."

"It was only after the banquet that I was suddenly informed by a note. The situation was urgent, and I didn't have time to tell you..."

"lie!"

Hearing her cold shout, Cui Pu immediately lowered his head like a child who has done something wrong.

"I was wrong." He said in a very low voice and aggrieved.

When Mu Yiyi walked in, Cui Pu's voice of admitting his mistake was heard through the screen.She stopped suddenly, looking a little embarrassed.

The personal servant girl lowered her voice and asked, "Miss, shall we go in now?"

"Go in! After all, the guests are waiting outside!" Mu Yi said in a low voice, then deliberately raised the volume and shouted, "Hongdou, are your wife and husband awake? A lot of county magistrates came outside just now, saying yes Came to visit your lord."

"Ah, Mrs. Madam is about to wake up at this time, the servant girl will go and call to see!" Hongdou understood, and hurriedly said loudly.

Hearing the sound from outside, Cui Pu quickly crawled out from the corner of the bed, got back under the quilt and lay down.

Hong Dou lifted the curtain, and saw two people who just woke up from sleep.

Mu Jiaojiao just said coldly to him: "Lie down well for me." Then he got up.

Cui Pu wanted to get up at first.Hearing her words, in a hurry, his bones softened and he lay back down again.

After Mu Jiaojiao dressed up simply, Wei Zhuang had already brought in the group of county magistrates.Mu Jiaojiao hastily bowed to them and saluted: "My husband fell into the water last night, thanks to your care. You came to visit us early this morning, and we are very grateful. We will remember your kindness for five years, and we will definitely repay you when we have the opportunity in the future."

"It should be. Everyone is a colleague. Cui Xianzun is sick, so it is only natural for us to visit." The square-faced county magistrate who left first last night hurriedly returned his greetings, and asked, "I wonder how Cui Xianzun is now?"

Mu Jiaojiao immediately lowered his head and remained silent, only wiping the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief.

Mu Yiyi replied on behalf of his younger sister: "The situation is not very good. When he was sent back last night, the wound on his arm was soaked in blisters. While he had a fever, he was shivering from the cold, and his mouth was still wet. Talking nonsense, scaring people to death!"

"Is that so? Did you invite a doctor?"

"You don't need to call a doctor, my sister has good medical skills. She gave him a few needles, took a few pills, and the fever has subsided. She had a rest last night and just woke up in the morning. I heard that you are here." , he was going to get up to see you, but he was so weak that he couldn't get up after struggling several times, so he was healed, please come to the backyard to see him."

"He is so seriously ill, so he shouldn't move around at all. Just lie down, we just walk a few more steps, it's okay." Fang Yanxian shook his head in fright when he heard that the situation was so serious, "I don't know Cui. Does Xianzun have the energy to talk to us now?"

"Of course there are. This way, please." Mu Yiyi nodded quickly, and Wei Zhuang led him into the inner room.

A group of people went around the screen and saw Cui Pu lying on the bed, his face was pale, his lips were pale, his eyes were also distracted, and he looked weak and tight.

Seeing them coming in, Cui Pu made a gesture to get up, but after trying several times to no avail, he could only smile at them apologetically: "Thank you for coming to see me. It's just that I'm weak now, so I can only talk to you like this. "

"That's it, you're not feeling well, it's better to lie down." The square-faced county lord hurriedly said, shaking his head and sighing, "Last night we saw that your face was not quite right, so we thought about leaving today to see you .I didn’t expect you to be really sick! Hey, if we knew this, we shouldn’t have gone to Slender West Lake last night!”

"Even if I don't go to Slender West Lake, but go to other places, that couple will not let me go. Back then in Chang'an, she had secretly attacked me several times, but they were all unsuccessful!" Cui Pu Weak Tao.

There is such a thing?The county magistrates were startled, and exchanged glances with each other instantly, their contempt for Wu Lixin and Princess Tang Chang deepened in their hearts.

As for the couple Cui Pu mentioned in the previous sentence, and the protagonist in the latter sentence has been replaced by Princess Tang Chang... They didn't pay much attention to it, but subconsciously took the previous incident as Wu Lixin and participated in it.Therefore, all of them labeled Wu Lixin as Princess Tangchang's male favorite, and made up their minds to stay away from him in the future.

While several people were talking, the servant girl brought tea for them.

The county magistrates all took a few bites.Immediately someone said: "This tea is so fresh and sweet, what do you use to brew it?"

"This is called lotus leaf loofah tea. Fresh raw materials such as fresh lotus leaves, ginkgo leaves, lentil flowers, loofah skins, and bamboo leaves are put together to make a concoction. Brewed with boiling water, it is the best way to clear away heat. My younger sister knew that you will be going back to your respective counties soon, so I specially asked me to make this tea for you. After you eat it, you will encounter it on the way back. No matter how big the sun is, there will be no heatstroke." Mu Yiyi laughed.

"So that's the case, then I would like to thank Mrs. Cui Xianzun first." The county magistrates hurriedly thanked Mu Jiaojiao, and then carefully ate up a bowl of tea.

After talking to Cui Pu a few more words, it was getting late, and the county magistrates left one after another.As the master of Wei Mansion, Wei Zhuang naturally took on the task of sending them out.

When the group of people left in a hurry, Mu Yiyi hurriedly took Mu Jiaojiao's hand: "Sister, thank you for your kindness. I will slowly repay you for your kindness in the future."

"Sister, I just asked my brother-in-law to help Liu Lang greet the guests, and it was my brother-in-law who did us a great favor. We haven't said thank you and repaid, why did we thank you first?" Mu Jiaojiao was puzzled.

Mu Yi shook his head. "Although you don't admit it, your brother-in-law and I will remember this love!"

Greeting guests is common, but who can have this opportunity to entertain all the county magistrates in Yangzhou city at once?Moreover, Wei Zhuang entertained Cai Ren when he entered the door, and Wei Zhuang will send him off now.Between pick-up and send-off, he was given enough room for performance.If Wei Zhuang was smart enough, he would have already established relationships with several county magistrates in this period of time!

The more he knows the local county magistrate in Yangzhou, the better it will be for him to travel everywhere in the future.Moreover, who can say that these county magistrates will only stop in Yangzhou in this life?In a few years, everyone will go away due to job transfers, and this network will spread to all parts of the country, and it will be even more useful at that time!
Therefore, the love that Mu Jiaojiao and Cui Pu gave them this time seemed simple, but it was actually terrifying.It's no wonder that when Wei Zhuang sent people out just now, his voice was so excited that he almost couldn't make a sound.

Mu Jiaojiao had no choice but to say softly: "Sister, I'm hungry."

"Okay, okay, I ordered it last night, and asked the kitchen to make Sanding Baozi, Jade Shaomai, Steamed Crab Dumplings, Xiaolong Taobao, and Chicken Shredded Rolls this morning. Let you try the special dishes here in Yangzhou Prefecture!" Knowing that she and Cui Pu both love to eat, Mu Yiyi was naturally prepared, "Now that you are up, I will ask the kitchen to bring the food. You should also help your brother-in-law get up quickly! There are no outsiders here now. "

After saying this meaningfully, she patted the back of Mu Jiaojiao's hand, then turned and left.

Mu Jiaojiao pursed her lips, and went back to the inner room slowly.

Cui Pu was lying bored alone.Seeing that Mu Jiaojiao came back, he quickly threw off the quilt and jumped up: "My lady, do you think I pretended to be sick just now? None of them saw any flaws!"

"Well, it's a good pretend." Mu Jiaojiao nodded.

Cui Pu's confidence increased immediately, and he hurried over: "For the sake of my obedience, don't be angry, okay? I didn't expect Princess Tangchang to be so despicable, she poured sweat medicine into my wine!" I originally thought, now that the weather is hot, I can swim again, at most I can just walk around in the lake. I still have the medicine you gave me with me, so I’m sure I’ll be fine. In the end... I still underestimated the enemy. I remember the lesson this time, and I will definitely learn from it in the future.”

Mu Jiaojiao opened his sleeves and saw that the inch-long wound had begun to heal, so she lowered her eyes: "Didn't you bring a silver needle with you? Just prick yourself with the needle, why hurt yourself like this?"

"At that time, I was in a daze, and I couldn't control my hands and feet. How could I get out such a small needle? Then I saw a vase in my hand, and I broke it. I didn't intend to scratch it at all. It’s such a big one, but I just don’t have the strength in my hand, so I deliberately used a little strength, who knows..." Cui Pu pouted, and quickly brought her arm to her, "Look, lady, this wound is long and thick. Deep, there was a lot of blood at that time! I couldn’t do it because of the pain, and then I jumped into the lake and was frozen by the lake again. It was so painful and cold, it almost tortured me to death! This place was still hot and itchy last night, I Almost grabbed it away. Thanks to you holding my hand, I didn't move."

"You also know that I've been holding you down?" Mu Jiaojiao said angrily.

Cui Pu cheekily rubbed against her: "How could you not know? I have always felt clearly how you treat me well. So, if you care about me so much in your heart, don't pretend to be so angry on purpose. What? Let's talk together, okay? Okay!"

Also 'Well'!Are you a man?

Mu Jiaojiao got goosebumps all over his body by his nasty tone.Quickly pushed him away: "Be honest with me!"

"You say you're not angry anymore, so I'll be honest!" Cui Pu continued rubbing and rubbing.

Mu Jiaojiao was immediately annoyed and funny, but more importantly, she was powerless against him. "Okay, I'm not angry anymore, can you let go?"

"Haha, I knew you are the best, lady!" Cui Pu didn't let go, he immediately hugged her tightly, and kissed her on the face again.

When Mu Yiyi walked in, seeing the couple flirting again, he felt more and more embarrassed.There was just one sentence, she had to say: "A-mei, Princess Tang Chang sent someone to send an apology outside."
