Divorcing your wife might feel good for a moment, but seeing me make money will make you regret it f

Cui Han glanced at Cai Yuanwai indifferently: "What are you going to confess? I, the Minister of Justice, have no interest in this kind of torture to extract confessions."

"It wasn't a forced confession; I confessed on my own."

"That girl is just my type! Everyone in the city knows that I, Master Cai, like women like that."

She was hovering in front of me with that expression on her face—what else could it be but seduction?

Xu Qing clenched her fists upon hearing this.

Master Cai was still saying with a confident expression:

"The girl hasn't answered me personally yet, so don't get so excited. Maybe she'll be willing to come with me."

After all, every woman in the entire city who catches my eye, even if she was initially unwilling, becomes completely submissive and gentle towards me afterward.

The women in my backyard are practically begging me to see them every day.

"Snapped."

Xu Qing, unable to bear it any longer, slapped Master Cai.

"If you're not getting to the point, I think we should let Lord Cui hold a public hearing to try this case."

"you!"

This was the first time in Cai Yuanwai's life that he had been beaten.

He was the apple of his family's eye since he was a child, and after his older sister got married, his sister and brother-in-law also doted on him.

"You tigress, you're not jealous of that girl I mentioned, are you? If you ask me, women should be gentler..."

"Ascension to the Hall."

Cui Han turned and walked out.

"No, no, no! Oh, I admit I hurt that man."

"Although I am a salt merchant, I really cannot come up with two taels of gold."

When Master Cai saw that Cui Han was serious, he hurriedly begged for mercy.

"The most I can offer is two taels of gold. That man just has a dislocated arm, so don't be too greedy..."

Cui Han turned his head to look at Xu Qing, who nodded slightly.

"Since that's the case, let's write a settlement agreement, have both parties sign and seal it, and that will settle the matter. There should be no further objections afterward."

Master Cai winced in pain. Ten thousand taels of silver! A whole ten thousand taels!

All his hard work for the year was for nothing!

But if he doesn't agree, this old scoundrel will definitely torture him.

He didn't get along with the young bastard from the Cui family, who appeared to be a very upright and honest man.

They might be waiting for him to refuse so they can take the opportunity to teach him a lesson.

After Cui Han finished writing the reconciliation letter, Xu Qing and Cai Yuanwai each pressed their fingerprints on it.

Cui Han said, "This settlement agreement is in triplicate. One copy for each of you, and one copy for the yamen."

Xu Qing took the settlement agreement from her and asked Master Cai, "I wonder when the compensation will be delivered?"

Master Cai cursed Cui Han in his heart as an "old fox," thinking that this was just him being wary of.

"I'll go back and prepare, and deliver it to the yamen first thing tomorrow morning. Can I leave now?"

Cui Han: "Do as you please."

Master Cai flicked his sleeves and left, feeling resentful.

"Hahaha, look at that fatso! It's so satisfying!"

This time he suffered a major hemorrhage.

Cui Yifeng felt incredibly happy and laughed so hard his teeth were almost invisible.

Xu Qing ignored Cui Yifeng, thanked Cui Han, and then said to Ye Wushuang, "I'd like to trouble you, Brother Ye, to take me to see my second brother."

Ye Wushuang nodded and drove Xu Qing towards the inn.

"Aunt Xu, Uncle Xu should be bandaged up and back at the inn by now, so we won't go to the clinic."

Xu Qing: "Thank you for your help."

Ye Wushuang: "You're too kind. A scholar will die for one who understands him. You appreciate my painting so much, it's just a small matter, don't worry about it."

But then again, Uncle Xu's injury was quite worthwhile this time, hehehe, it was worth two gold coins!

Aunt Xu, have you decided how you plan to spend your money? Be frugal, you'll never run out of money in your lifetime.

Xu Qing wasn't completely calm yet; she wanted the fat man's hand to break as well.

For that fat man, money was like paper; if he lost it, he could earn it back, so it didn't bother him at all.

However, this is the best compensation we can get right now; we'll look for other opportunities later.

“I plan to leave 2000 taels to my second brother, and donate the rest to the prefect so that he can distribute them to the villages that have been severely affected by the disaster this year.”

In this way, even if the fat man wanted to cause trouble for her afterward, the prefect, having received the benefits, would help her out.

Ye Wushuang was so startled that she almost lost control of the carriage and crashed into a roadside stall.

She exclaimed in shock, "Aunt Xu, you're too generous! That's gold, so much gold, and you just calmly said you wanted to donate it."

Although she had lived a life of luxury since childhood, she had never seen so much gold before.

Xu Qing smiled and explained, "That guy surnamed Cai gave me so much money, he must be very unhappy about it."

They might cause me trouble, or try to take the gold back.

But once I donated it, he couldn't do anything about it.

"Two thousand taels is enough for my second brother; we'll earn money anyway."

Ye Wushuang said admiringly, "No need to say more, Aunt Xu. Ordinary people wouldn't be willing to give up such a windfall."

Before we knew it, we had arrived at the inn.

Xu Qing and Ye Wushuang walked to the second-floor room and were about to knock on the door.

Sounds that made one blush and their heart race came from inside the door.

Ye Wushuang grinned mischievously: "I never expected this. It seems you were just worrying for nothing, Aunt Xu."

Xu Qing is, after all, a modern woman who has given birth to a child in this era.

He remained quite calm in the face of this situation.

"Cough cough cough."

She coughed twice on purpose to remind the people inside the room.

Although she could accept it, this was ancient times after all, and if the two of them did something intimate before they were even married, it would be a problem.

It's never good for girls.

Upon hearing the noise, the two people inside the room, Qian Baizhi, suddenly pushed Xu Gong away.

"Brother Xu, someone's here..."

Qian Baizhi's face turned as red as a boiled shrimp.

Xu Gong had endured for over twenty years, and now that he had finally tasted the sweetness of meat, he was unwilling to let go.

He leaned forward and pulled Qian Baizhi close with his good hand:

"Never mind them, they might just be passing by. Good Angelica, give me another kiss."

Qian Baizhi hesitated and placed her hand on Xu Gong's chest: "Why don't we go and see what's going on? What if it's my little sister and the others?"

"No way, my little sister would have knocked on the door right away. Why would she be coughing?"

Xu Gong suddenly clutched the arm that had fallen onto his neck: "Bai Zhi, my hand hurts so much."

Qian Baizhi immediately removed her hand and said nervously, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Second Brother Xu, did I bump into you?"

Taking this opportunity, Xu Gong pulled Qian Baizhi into his arms, cupped her face in one hand, and kissed her again.

"It's not that Bai Zhi hurts when she touches me, it's that it hurts when you don't kiss me."

"Well."

Xu Qing and Ye Wushuang, who were forced to eavesdrop outside the door, were also embarrassed by Xu Gong's shamelessness.

Ye Wushuang stammered, "Aunt Xu, how about we come back later?"

Xu Qing nodded helplessly: "I'm a little hungry, let's go downstairs and get something to eat first."
