The Marquise: I Earn My Own Worship

Chapter 190: Unable to defeat, one can only passively join

Kang Ge'er stood up and was about to leave, but Cui Jie grabbed his pants. He tried to pull them back but was held tightly.

He held up his shaky trouser waist and looked helplessly at Cui Jie, who was sitting on the ground in a state of disgrace.

"What on earth do you want to do?"

Cui Jie gently supported his chin, fearing that it would fall, and looked at Kang Ge'er for help.

If it were his original self, he would be cute, and looking at Kang Ge'er like this, maybe he would feel softer.

But now his chin was long, his face was covered with snot and tears, and only his eyes looked innocent. However, this kid was quite deceptive, and Kang Ge'er knew his temper, so he wouldn't be fooled by him.

"You want me to put your jaw back on?"

Cui Jie nodded eagerly. He was already scared, afraid that his jaw would never return to its original position.

"Then what's in it for me?"

Cui Jie was stunned. This bad guy still wanted benefits. He even made himself into this state and still wanted benefits!

Kang Ge'er pretended to be impatient and was about to leave, but was stopped by Cui Jie again.

Looking at the silent Cui Jie, Kang Ge'er smiled muffledly.

"If you don't say anything, I'll leave."

Cui Jie's eyes widened. Was it because he didn't want to speak? It was because he couldn't speak! !

His brain was working rapidly, and he reached out and took out the twenty taels of silver he had on him and handed it to Kang Ge'er.

Kang Ge'er knew it, and was secretly happy, but looked at him with a cold expression on his face.

"Do you think I'm short of money? Who can I give this little money to?"

Cui Jie became anxious, and turned around to signal the people standing behind him who felt wronged, and used the silver in his hand.

The people behind him didn't understand what was going on, but Chao Shilin was the first to react and took out six taels of silver from his pocket.

When the others saw this, they understood and took out the money they had on them, even the copper coins, and put them in a bag and gave it to Kang Ge'er together with the twenty taels in Cui Jie's hand.

Kang Ge'er was shocked. The weight was not light. Although it was still a little, it was better than nothing.

He seemed to have discovered a way to get rich. He was calculating in his mind, his eyes fixed on Cui Jie lying on the ground. This kid was quite well-off.

"Alright, since you guys are sensible, I'll let you go. But I have a request, you!"

Kang Ge'er pointed at Cui Jie

"You must be my little brother and acknowledge me as your big brother, or else your jaw won't be reattached in a quarter of an hour."

Cui Jie initially disagreed. It was a joke, as he thought it was impossible for him to be a subordinate of a bad guy. But when he heard that his jaw couldn't be reattached, the naive Cui Jie was frightened again.

A ten-year-old child had never experienced such a scene before and didn't know what to do.

Cui Jie was so scared that tears came to his eyes again. He just nodded and dared not resist anymore.

"And them too!"

When Kang Ge'er saw this, he remembered that there were a few other people.

Chao Shilin usually followed Cui Jie and was used to listening to him, so those people all looked at Cui Jie.

Cui Jie gestured anxiously, and Chao Shilin and the others agreed.

Kang Ge'er deftly twisted Cui Jie's face, and with some skillful force, Cui Jie returned to normal with a "click" sound.

Cui Jie ignored the saliva at the corner of his mouth and touched his chin first.

Still here, still here.

Kang Ge'er was a little disgusted and threw a handkerchief to him.

Cui Jie only then realized his saliva, his face quickly turned red, and he wiped it angrily.

"Alright, since you're my little brother, you have to follow my orders. I'm going to the Qizhen Pavilion now, and you guys come with me."

Cui Jie wanted to go back on his word, but he had already agreed, and he felt very conflicted.

Kang Ge'er knew what the boy was thinking at a glance, and quietly moved towards Shilin, preparing to let Cui Jie follow him.

"If you dare to run, I'll break your legs next time I see you!"

After hearing this, Chao Shilin's legs went weak and he almost fell to his knees. His thigh was still hurting because he had just been kicked to the ground and couldn't get up for a long time.

Cui Jie was also frightened and followed Kang Ge'er without caring about anything else.

"Humph!"

Kang Ge'er left straight away, delaying him for quite some time. If he came back late, Xuan Ge'er would start nagging him again after school.

Xuan'er has now hired a new teacher for him, who is also a student going to Beijing to take the imperial examination. He has arrived in Beijing in advance to prepare for next year's imperial examination.

Cui Jie and the group of people behind him followed Kang Ge'er like a little wife.

They wanted to run, but the look from the devil in front of them scared them so much that they dared not move.

When they arrived at the Qizhen Pavilion, Kang Ge'er proudly selected several items and spent all his money, leaving only a few copper coins.

"Master Duan, please take care. If the item is small, why not have it delivered directly to your residence?"

The shopkeeper smiled apologetically, saying that this gentleman was a big customer and came to give him money every month.

Kang Ge'er was about to nod when he turned around and saw his younger brothers following him with dejected looks on their faces.

"No, just pack the things for me and ask them to bring them to me."

Kang Ge'er raised his chin, and the shopkeeper looked over.

It seems that all of them are the noble young men he knows. Oh my God, how can he respond?

Sweat began to drip down the shopkeeper's forehead, and he was a little hesitant.

"This this……"

Kang Ge'er looked at Cui Jie with a half-smile. Cui Jie's scalp tingled from being stared at. He almost tilted his neck back in protest out of habit. The pain in his jaw made him realize that he had already surrendered to the devil in front of him and become his little brother.

Needless to say, he felt uncomfortable. He had always been the boss, and this was the first time he felt like being ordered around.

Cui Jie hesitated until he saw that the devil seemed a little impatient, then he spoke.

He didn't dare to lose his temper with the devil, so how could he be afraid of a small shopkeeper?

"Hurry up and bring the things over."

Cui Jie's face was full of impatience. Chao Shilin wanted to struggle, but when he saw Cui Jie compromise, he knew there was no hope, so he accepted his fate.

The shopkeeper glanced at everyone and asked someone to prepare the things, which were exactly three large boxes and one small box.

Chao Shilin and the others consciously gave the smaller one to Cui Jie. Cui Jie still found it very heavy when he took it, so he pouted and prepared to cheat.

"No way? Could it be that someone can't even lift a box?"

Kang Ge'er spoke in a hushed tone, and Cui Jie swallowed back the words he was about to say. He held the thing in his arms in anger.

"There's a scented dew in there. If you knock it, it will spill..."

Cui Jie silently put the things back in place.

Among Chao Shilin and his six companions, two people were just able to carry the things. After all, they were only eleven or twelve years old and did not have much strength.

The large items are actually not heavy, but they are packed in wooden boxes, which are not only difficult to carry, but also large in size and can only be carried by two people.

In this way, Kang Ge'er walked in front with his hands behind his back, followed by a group of followers with sad faces.

When they arrived at the gate of the mansion, Kang Ge'er saw that it was still early, so he turned around and asked hypocritically:

"Everyone must be tired, do you want to come into the mansion and sit for a while?"

Cui Jie had just been dealt with and had walked all the way with his things in his arms, so he was already exhausted.

Leaning against the stone lion beside him, he looked resentful.

"Don't go!"

Chao Shilin and the others all shook their heads and refused.
