Records of the Cattle and Horses of Chang'an

Chapter 401 Meeting Gift

How should I put it? Liu Manqiang is in a pretty good mood now. Her granddaughter-in-law seems to be an honest person, but she is a little uneducated and not good at either literature or martial arts. However, she has a gentle personality and she probably won't bully her daughter.

But she always felt that the child's temperament seemed a little weak, giving people the feeling that he was a soft persimmon that was easy to manipulate.

Especially when I asked her about her homework, her best move was running away!?

Being a parent means worrying all their lives. With a granddaughter-in-law like this and a silly daughter like him, putting the two of them together is like a powerful force that can cut through metal. They might just be tied together and bullied. One of them wouldn't dare to talk back, but the other one might dare to, but she's afraid she can't hear it!

She felt even more upset. While she was thinking about what to do, she heard her granddaughter-in-law chattering to Cui Shuhua about something like pickled cabbage and pork ribs.

Oh, when I asked her about her homework just now, she said less than this big bone dish.

How do you know how to eat?

So annoying~

Xiao Jiang, who didn't get to eat the sauerkraut and pork ribs at home, used his eloquence honed from storytelling to make everyone in the room salivate, and successfully got to eat the sauerkraut and pork ribs made by Cui's apprentice at Cui's house.

Xiao Jiang controlled himself and ate only until he was 70% full, happily eating the red wine and walnut soup that his apprentice had given him. Liu Manqiang wanted to eat it, but she was old after all, and the soup contained small dumplings, which were difficult to digest, so Zheng Qiuyi didn't let her eat it.

Cui Shuhua really couldn't eat anymore. Anyway, if she skipped this meal, she could just ask someone to go to the kitchen and ask for food next time. Only Zhao Yue could enjoy the dessert with Xiao Jiang.

After lunch, Liu Manqiang and Cui Shuhua both went back to rest for a while, so Xiao Jiang took her gift and left. After getting on the carriage, she couldn't wait to open her harvest of the day. However, she was stunned when she saw it, and blinked twice slowly: "Fang Cun, let's go to Dali Temple."

The carriage belonged to the Cui family, and the driver was Cui Bianxu's bodyguard Fangcun. Upon hearing this, he went to the Dali Temple without any hesitation.

Sending the future mistress to meet her own master is a good thing that will make her look good, so she must be proactive!

Dali Temple

Cui Bianxu, who had just finished eating in the cafeteria, was sitting in the office drinking tea. His brows were slightly wrinkled, but judging from the extent of the wrinkle, it shouldn't be a particularly difficult problem.

The middle-aged burly man, Wang Leisheng, was timid and looked like he had done something wrong. He would glance at his leader from time to time and said, "Shaoqing, Doctor Ning's medical skills are excellent. I guarantee that Zhou Qiu will be fine."

Zhou Qiu has been feeling a little unwell since yesterday. He has been complaining of headaches and pain all over his body.

He has been imprisoned in the Dali Temple prison for so many days, and Wang Leisheng has used all his signature tricks on him twice, but he has never been like this.

At first, the jailer thought he was pretending not to pay attention, but he was still like that today, except that his mouth could not open when he cried out in pain. So he reported it to the jailer and asked Ning Yuye to come and take a look.

Unexpectedly, Ning Yuye shook his head after taking a look and said that he was afraid that the patient had contracted the seven-day rheumatism disease, and he might not be able to cure the patient.

Cui Bianxu shook his head, but he didn't mean to blame him. Since torture was used, it was normal for someone to die. He was just a little annoyed that if Zhou Qiu died, the only ones who could be tried would be Wu Sanniang and Scarface.

"Young Master, I heard that Lord Liu is going to resign from the position of Dali Temple Minister." Wang Leisheng saw that he did not blame him for coming back boldly, so he had the leisure to pull him aside to chat about gossip.

Xiao Cui, who once again had a new understanding of his popularity among the police, asked: "Where did this rumor come from?"

Why didn't he get any news?

Wang Leisheng smiled shyly and said, "I often drink with Lao Jin, who is in charge of cleaning Liu Qing's yard."

The only people in the entire Dali Temple who knew about this matter were probably him and Lao Jin. Lao Jin was just a servant who swept the floor and no one else wanted to talk to him. Wang Leisheng didn't mind, as he himself was often looked down upon.

Cui Bianxu couldn't help but look at him with admiration. Old Wang was, in a sense, a talented person.

"Shaoqing, if Liu Qing really resigns from the position of Dali Temple Minister, then shouldn't you..." He winked at Cui Bianxu, and the meaning was too obvious - Shaoqing Cui, do you want to do something to smooth things over?

The one who is close to the water gets the moon first. There are two Shaoqing in the Dali Temple, and naturally they cannot get along with each other. If Cui Bianxu can get to the position, then Old Wang will definitely be able to rise to the top as well, right?

Cui Bianxu lowered his eyes, fearing that His Majesty would not let him take the position of Dali Temple Minister.

His silence made Wang Leisheng think that he was moved. Old Wang was a considerate man. He knew that his young master was not fond of bribery and flattery. Just when he was about to pass on some of his own experience to him, the door was knocked.

"Mr. Cui, Miss Jiang is here." Outside, the yamen runner came happily to report the news, holding a bag of small fried dough twists with brown sugar given by Jiang Shangxian in his arms.

Xiao Cui, who was originally gloomy, suddenly became bright and cheerful. He stood up and strode out. Without even turning his head, he sent Wang Leisheng, who was about to do something, away: "Go and find out who Li Xingquan is close to now!"

He felt that Wang Leisheng was quite suitable for this kind of intelligence work, and there was no need to mention his laughable failure experience.

Wang Leisheng shook his head with experience: "When you are young, the love and affection are the most captivating~"

Jiang Shangxian of Dali Temple was also very familiar to her. Most of the people in Dali Temple had eaten her food and knew her relationship with Cui Bianxu. They couldn't help but tease her when they saw her, and Xiao Jiang uniformly avoided it by blushing.

She lowered her head and hurried along. Before she even reached Cui Bianxu's courtyard, she heard someone calling her softly, "Nian Nu, why are you here?"

"Jiulang!" Jiang Shangxian looked up and saw his own little Cui, and he breathed a sigh of relief. He glanced at the eyes around him, suppressed his nervousness, slowed his pace, and said casually, "I went to visit my grandmother today."

Cui Bianxu's heart skipped a beat. He glanced at the lacquer box in her hand and asked jokingly, "But what good thing did grandma give you?"

"Exactly. It's a very interesting thing."

Jiang Shangxian smiled sweetly, like a young lady who shared a good thing with her lover: "Let me show you this. Grandma loves me so much."

The conversation between the two made the people around who were listening to the gossip couldn't help but chuckle and shake their heads. This is what young men and women are like. If they get something good, they want to see it together. Wow.

The sweethearts in their hearts immediately shut the door tightly as soon as they entered. Cui Bianxu put his hand on her shoulder and looked her up and down: "Did your grandmother give you a hard time?"

His grandmother's skills are much better than his future wife's!

The first thing Jiang Shangxian mentioned was Liu Manqiang. Cui Bianxu thought she was in a difficult situation and that the gift she mentioned was just a casual remark.
