It was a good thing that Chu Yue hadn't mentioned Zhang Qiuying before. Now that she mentioned Zhang Qiuying, and specifically explained that she was Lu Dagui's fiancée, Mrs. Lin became nervous.
I thought she would teach Zhang Qiuying a lesson today and threaten her not to marry Lu Dagui so that she could leave smoothly. I didn't expect that Chu Yue would come in when she was beating someone, nor did she expect that she would dare to hold her hostage and threaten Boss Cao.
Boss Cao is suspicious by nature. If he suspects that he will never forget his old love for Lu Dagui, even if she gives birth to a child in the future, life in the Cao family will not be easy.
Boss Cao looked in the direction of Zhang Qiuying.
When he saw her miserable appearance, the coldness in his eyes became even stronger.
"Aunt Lin, how do you want to explain?"
Hearing Boss Cao's voice, Mrs. Lin's knees went weak for no reason and she knelt down, sobbing with red eyes, "Master, you also know that I have a son. They say that if you have a stepmother, you will have a stepfather. I was also afraid that my child would be wronged, so I came to threaten Mrs. Zhang, but I didn’t expect that it was my fault that I caused such trouble for the master.”
Looking at the eloquent woman in front of him, Lu Dagui felt extremely strange.
Ms. Lin is no longer the same Ms. Lin as before.
I don’t know if Boss Cao believed Lin’s words. He looked directly at Chu Yue and asked, “How can I compensate you?”
"I think Boss Cao also knows what happened to the Yan family last time. Just compensate according to their standards."
Boss Cao looked at the person next to him.
"I heard?"
The person beside him hurriedly took out a hundred-tael silver note and a ten-tael silver ingot from his bag and handed them to Chu Yue.
Boss Cao looked at Chu Yue and said, "Now that the money is clear, can you return the money to me?"
Chu Yue smiled, "That's natural."
She glanced at Kuromu and saw Kuromu holding the sword back in his arms.
When Lin saw this, she quickly got up and ran to Boss Cao.
Boss Cao's attention at the moment was not on Lin, but on Heimu holding the sword.
Is Chu Yue's confidence in facing him coming from this man?
Boss Cao has been working hard in Nanping Town for many years. He runs Cao Ji Dental Store, which buys and sells slaves, and also manages the water transportation at the south dock of Nanping Town. He has seen a lot of monsters and monsters, and he has a vicious vision.
With just one glance, he knew that this man was not simple.
When I went to the medical clinic to look for someone a few days ago, I didn't see him. I guess it was because I didn't do anything, so I kept hiding in the dark.
But why does a person like Chu Yue, who comes from a peasant family, have such a powerful guard by his side?
With Chu Yue's background, this kind of person shouldn't appear next to her.
Where did he come from?
"This strong man has great kung fu, I don't know where he came from? Would you like to come to my Cao Ji dental shop? I can give you double the price as much as Dr. Chu will give you." As if he was afraid that he would disagree, Boss Cao held out three fingers. , "Three times will do."
Everyone was stunned, as if they did not expect that Mr. Cao would extend an olive branch to Heimu at this time.
Especially the gang of younger brothers brought by Boss Cao.
Usually, if you want to join Boss Cao's camp, you have to rely on connections to get in. This is the first time I see him actively recruiting people.
There is also a hint of flattery.
Chu Yue raised her eyebrows and said, "Boss Cao poached my people in front of me, so he doesn't take me seriously."
A hint of a faint smile appeared on Boss Cao's lips.
"Doctor Chu, don't blame me. I've given you the compensation you should pay today. As for this brother, I didn't force him. His decision to stay or go is entirely up to him."
The yard suddenly became quiet.
Everyone focused on Kuroki.
Chu Yue looked at Heimu, wondering if he would agree to Boss Cao. After all, the monthly payment he gave was more than hers.
They all say that people go to higher places, not to mention Kuroki, even she would be confused when encountering such a thing.
Heimu glanced in the direction of Chu Yue, and when he saw the inquiring look on her face, his brows slightly raised on his originally expressionless face.
This girl really didn't trust him at all.
Is he so easily seduced by money?
After a moment, Kuroki spoke coldly.
"I won't go no matter how much money you have."
Hearing his answer, Chu Yue breathed a sigh of relief.
This guy still has some conscience. It seems that he should be treated better in the future.
Although Boss Cao was surprised, he became more and more curious about Heimu.
However, he was just curious. They had clearly rejected his solicitation, and he could not take them away by force.
With a wave of his hand, he left with a group of people.
Before Lin left, she glanced deeply in the direction of Lu Dagui. When she saw Zhang Qiuying's nervous look, an indescribable feeling filled her heart, which made her feel very sour.
Seeing Boss Cao and his gang leaving, Lu Dagui helped Zhang Qiuying to come to Chu Yue, and first reached out and patted Heimu on the shoulder.
"Brother Kuroki, well done."
Heimu glanced sideways at his shoulder, and Lu Dagui was so frightened that he quickly retracted his hand.
Zhang Qiuying glanced at the yard and looked at Chu Yue with a remorseful face, "Doctor Chu, I'm sorry for causing trouble to you because of my affairs."
Chu Yue waved her hand.
"No one wants this to happen. Now that it has happened, just find a way to make up for it." She said, putting the ten taels of silver in Zhang Qiuying's hand, "Since it was Boss Cao who compensated you, Just take it, are you feeling any discomfort now?"
Zhang Qiuying shook her head with red eyes.
"I'm fine, they're just superficial injuries."
"You should also treat skin wounds carefully. I have good wound medicine over there. I will ask Brother Dagui to get it for you later. You will be a bride next month, so you can't leave any scars on your body."
She knew Zhang Qiuying's secret.
For her, marrying Lu Dagui was the real marriage. Since it was something she had been looking forward to for a long time, of course she couldn't have any regrets.
Zhang Qiuying lowered her head and hummed.
Jiang Xiuqin on the side sighed, stepped forward and said comfortingly, "Qiuying, don't think too much about it. Mrs. Lin abandoned Dagui and his son in the past. Now she can't see that he is treating you well, so she comes to trouble you. You and Dagui are in trouble." You should do whatever you want, just think she is envious of you."
Zhang Qiuying sniffed.
"I know."
She never thought about giving up, and she was not someone who gave up easily.
Otherwise, in the past few years at her husband's house, she could no longer bear it and ran away. The hard days in the past were over, and she had heard all kinds of scoldings. Today's scene would be nothing.
But I still feel aggrieved.
She has never done anything outrageous, but everything she has experienced seems not to have gone well.
Chu Yue knew that she would feel bad now.
"Sister Qiuying, please go to the house and rest first. Brother Dagui will give you some medicine later. Let's clean up the yard first."
Zhang Qiuying rubbed the corners of her eyes and said, "Shall I come to help too?"
After saying that, he went to pack his things, but Lu Dagui picked him up and walked into the house, "What help can you do? It's not like you don't have a man, so don't do all the work today. I'll do your job."
