To support exiled officials, start by worshipping the God of Wealth

Chapter 265 Sister Yuan, your sweetheart?

Cheng Yan'er's face was pale and she wiped the dirt from the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief.

He forced himself to smile calmly and said, "What are you talking about? I don't understand. I still need to help the county magistrate back. Please let me pass."

Jiusu said: "Cheng Yan'er, there is nothing wrong in finding a father for the baby in your belly, but is Zhang Tu your final destination? What will happen if he finds out that the baby in your belly is not three months old, but five months old?"

Cheng Yan'er's steps were unsteady. Looking at the maid who was gradually approaching, her expression suddenly tensed: "What do you mean?"

Jiusu pretended to wash his hands and said with a curled lip.

"I'm going to Shengjing. Before I leave, I have to eliminate corrupt officials, such as Zhang Tu. Do you want to take your unborn child with you to be implicated, or divide up the family property and raise the child with the huge sum of money?"

Cheng Yan'er exhaled and asked, "Aren't you afraid that I will tell the county magistrate about this?"

Jiusu saw her bending down to avoid the maid. She raised her head slightly, looked at her already obvious belly and said, "The most fatal thing about you is that your child is not the county magistrate's. Will she believe you or me? Cheng Yan'er, you sacrificed your relatives for the sake of justice and helped the court to defeat the thieves. You have made contributions."

Seeing her silent.

Not too harsh.

Cheng Yan'er gritted her teeth and asked in an unclear mood, "Any credit?"

Jiusu said: "As long as you behave yourself in this life and buy as much property and treasures as possible as soon as possible, it is not impossible to turn a blind eye."

The maid bowed to Jiusu.

She took Cheng Yan'er's arm and asked with a smile, "Aunt, what's wrong with you? You look so pale."

Cheng Yan'er glanced at Jiusu who was leaving, covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief and said, "I was sick from the smell of alcohol, and forgot to put on clothes when I came out, so I got cold. Go and ask the servants to help the master away, but I didn't expect that Jiu's face would turn black?"

The maid hesitated for a few seconds, then agreed.

Cheng Yan'er sat back down, stroking her belly, and watching the servants in the mansion bring back hot tea. She held the cup in her hand, feeling much warmer. "Keep your word."

"It counts." Jiusu said.

Originally, the county magistrate wanted to borrow the money house to apologize to Jiusu, but he got drunk before he could say a few words. After he woke up, he felt extremely regretful and kept sighing.

"How can I drink so much? I must have made Master Jiu angry again."

Cheng Yan'er asked: "Master, are you still afraid that she will be angry?"

Zhang Tu washed his face and said, "You don't understand. Although she is a salt transport envoy, she is very smart. When she is here, she will not offend anyone if she can."

Cheng Yan'er sat in his arms, smelling the alcohol on him, and felt disgusted for the first time.

She looked out the window and asked, "What if she leaves here?"

"I bet. The money she earns from her shop and factory is at least half of what I earn. People in Shengjing will not allow a female official to be so dazzling. After all, women are supposed to take care of their husbands and children. If they go to the officialdom, you will be played with by others sooner or later."

Zhang Tu patted her butt and signaled her to leave.

Cheng Yan'er chuckled. "Stupid! I've already figured this out. I'm going to skin you alive and eat your flesh. Why are you still bragging?" She said, "I talked to her for a few words. She wasn't angry."

"Really?" Zhang Tu asked.

"Of course it's true, how could I lie to you?" Cheng Yan'er pouted and pretended to be angry. Now she is an ally with Jiusu. It's no big deal to make up some lies for the sake of success, right?

Zhang Tu held her face and kissed her: "Oh, my baby, you are so good. When that yellow-faced woman dies, I will let you be the wife of the county magistrate."

Cheng Yan'er said coquettishly: "I don't want to be a lady, but I have my eyes on a shop..."

"Buy!" Zhang Tu took out the banknote and threw it on the table. "Is two hundred taels enough?"

Cheng Yan'er nodded, "Enough, enough, enough."

These few days, what she had to do was to coax Zhang Tu, get the money and evidence, so that she could escape when the danger or disaster came.

There are five or six snowmen piled in front of the hot pot restaurant.

Luo Wanjia was carrying pastries. He looked at the shop full of people, his eyes almost blinded. He glanced around and fixed his eyes on the woman who was patiently introducing the dishes in the shop.

He walked in with a smile.

"Happy New Year, boss."

"Happy New Year..." Yuan Ling turned around and looked at the person who came. Her smile deepened. "Happy New Year. Go to the lounge and wait for me. I'll be there soon."

The guest asked: "Sister Yuan, who is your sweetheart?"

Yuan Ling exchanged a glance with the man who was walking away. Her heart was filled with enthusiasm and her mouth suddenly became dry. She waved her hands and said, "Oh, a friend and two beauties, what else do you want?"

The guest snickered and said, "Let's leave it at that for now. We won't disturb the boss from catching up with his friends."

Yuan Ling blushed, but still said generously: "Call me if you need anything."

She handed the menu to the other waiter, tidied her appearance at the door, brought two cups of hot tea, pushed the door open, and sat opposite the man with a smile.

"Have a cup of tea."

Luo Wanjia thanked him and pointed at the cakes and said, "Our village's famous camel cake, try it."

Yuan Ling took a bite and nodded, "It's delicious. By the way, didn't you go back to the village? Why are you here again?"

Luo Wanjia folded his hands on the table and said, "I worked with Miss Jiu to wipe out the bandits in Yinshan. I have to go back today. I came to bring you some cakes and say goodbye."

Yuan Ling was silent, biting the pastry in her hand.

"Have a safe trip."

"I wish your business gets better and better." Luo Wanjia stood up and walked through the crowd with her, arriving at the door of the store. He put on his bamboo hat and said with a smile, "Happy New Year."

Yuan Ling pursed her lips, clenched her hands in front of her chest, and sighed deeply.

not far away.

Jiusu shook his head: "One doesn't say, and the other doesn't ask."

Kou Shao asked anxiously.

"The boss and Sister Yuan Ling have met twice. Will they meet again?"

"Maybe." Jiusu thought, people who are destined to be together will never be separated, "The hot pot restaurant smells so good, Kou Shao, go give the boss some coupons."

Kou Shao grabbed a handful of coupons from the store. Fortunately, the snowy road was difficult to walk on, so she quickly caught up.

Zitan said, "Miss, this is a good deed. With these coupons, it gives the boss a reason to go. Are you still going to the hot pot restaurant?"

Jiusu shook his head.

"You and Kou Shao just need to deliver the New Year's gifts. Later, you can go to the bookstore and the hot pot restaurant, and I will go to Sister Xiuying's house."

"Yes." Zitan agreed.

This place is far away from Xiuying's home.

My feet felt hot from walking and I was sweating a lot.

When passing by a remote alley, I heard whispering sounds.

Jiusu straightened his back, leaned against the wall, and listened. It was very dark in the deep alley, and he heard loud beating sounds.

Standing at the junction of darkness.

In making a choice.

"Saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda."

When in doubt, follow your heart.

Seeing that there was no one around, she took out a dagger and a crossbow from the system.

The closer you are, the louder the sound.

The man worriedly asked, "If we beat him to death, will we be arrested by the government?"
