146 Buried Nails(2/2)

And this time, 0.1 qian, or about 2.5 grams of Lingpeach wine, was added to the jade bottle.

Shi Zhongkui expected that it would take two or three times for Lin Daiyu to have obvious effects after drinking it.

Not only will there not be much wine left by then, Jia Mu, Jia She, Jia Zheng and others will be too embarrassed to grab it openly even if they are tempted.

Maybe she would still think that she would wait until Lin Daiyu was sure that everything was fine before taking action.

Otherwise, according to Jia Mu's habits, she would not risk her own body.

Also, if only Lin Daiyu drank this spiritual wine, I would only give the medicinal wine to the Jia family, and even Jia Baoyu would not be able to tell the truth from the false.

Even diluting the medicinal wine is no problem.

After being polite to the unaware Jia Lian, Jia Lian could only go back first.

Early the next morning, Shi Zhongkui got the reward of the golden squirrel.

Deliberately taking Jia Baoyu and Jia Lan into the living room, they were ready to have breakfast.

He and Jialan also poured a cup of medicinal wine diluted with honey for their uncle and nephew to drink.

Not long after the two uncles and nephews drank a small cup, Shun'er walked in quickly with Cui Hezhong who looked tired but had a smile on his face.

"Sir, I'm lucky to have fulfilled my destiny and found the piece of jade that belonged to Mr. Bao."

Jia Baoyu, who had drunk the medicinal wine, was recalling the effect of the medicinal wine and looked carefully at the fake jade.

After taking it from Shi Zhongkui, he glanced at it casually, hung the fake jade on the gold collar, and said to Shi Zhongkui with a smile, "Brother-in-law, if one cup is enough, let me have another cup."

Shi Zhongkui smiled, gave Jia Baoyu a glass and said, "From now on, if you want to drink, just come to me directly. But you also know how precious this thing is, so don't make any noise outside, understand?"

Jia Baoyu nodded hurriedly, while Jia Lan, who was being watched by the two men, stood up quickly, cupped his hands towards Shi Zhongkui and said, "Teacher, don't worry, I don't dare to tell anyone about this."

Shi Zhongkui smiled and shook his head, "Brother Lan, I am not only your teacher, but also your uncle. You don't have to be so careful in the future."

Jia Lan felt relieved in his heart, but in action he still saluted respectfully and said 'yes'.

Shi Zhongkui then looked at Cui Hezhong, who had been kneeling on one knee.

"Although the merits and demerits are equal to each other, I really have to praise you for being able to get them back."

Cui Hezhong looked overjoyed after hearing this.

Then I heard Shi Zhongkui say with a smile, "Okay, I will write a post to ask for credit for you later. You can take it to the Xiuyiwei stall. The wasteland reclamation matter in Wanping City can also be considered for you."

A credit."

Cui Hezhong immediately knelt down on his knees and loudly replied, "Thank you for the promotion, sir."

This is more popular than a direct reward of silver, and is welcomed by the entire household.

Moreover, it also avoided Shi Zhongkui's suspicion of winning over people's hearts and all the hundreds of households taking refuge with civil servants.

I also gave the big stall owner enough face.

After all, it was him who rewarded the embroidered clothes guard, which not only saved his face, but also showed that he was a good leader because of the land reclamation.

When Cui Hezhong left with the post in hand with a smile on his face, Jia Lian came to visit again.

After watching Jia Lian, Jia Baoyu, Jia Lan, and the boys of the Jia family leave, Shi Zhongkui summoned the Golden-haired Rat and ordered him to keep an eye on it and report back later.

When they arrived at Jia's house, Jia Baoyu took the jade bottle and hurried back to his house.

At this time, Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu were still living in the side room of Jia Mu's house.

In other words, if the two of them speak louder, they are likely to attract Jia Mu's attention.

Not to mention that Jia Baoyu and Jia Lan did not return home all night. Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang, Li Wan, Wang Xifeng, Sanchun and Lin Daiyu were all waiting in Jia Mu's house after Jia Lian went to pick them up.

Seeing that Jia Baoyu and Jia Lan returned safely, everyone could not help but heave a sigh of relief.

Before Jia Lian could speak, Jia Mu praised Jia Lian a few times and asked, "Baoyu, Lan'er, where did your brother-in-law and uncle take you yesterday? Why did you come back now?"

How could Jia Baoyu, who was holding the jade bottle, have the time to say this?

Besides, he was also worried that Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang would find out about the missing jade.

He explained a few words casually and raised the jade vase in his hand as if offering a treasure.

Just when he was about to send it to Lin Daiyu to ask for credit, he thought that he had cheated his cousin of who knows how much wealth.

He could only say to Zicuckoo, "Go and get a clean cup quickly. I have brought a treasure for you girl to use to treat your illness."

These words really attracted the attention of everyone present.

Jia Lian had really seen Shi Zhongkui learn the thunder method. After thinking about it for a moment, he was ecstatic and said, "Baoyu, the jade bottle in your hand was rewarded to you by the wise brother Boqian?"

Not only Jia Mu, but also Mrs. Wang frowned at the word "reward", and others even looked at Jia Mu with uneasiness.

It's a pity that Jia Lian still has so many thoughts to worry about.

Even though Wang Xifeng glanced at him several times, not only did she not see him, but she even acted like she was dying after Jia Baoyu nodded.

He sighed and said, "Brother Boqian, why do you prefer one to another? I am his real brother-in-law. No, I have to go find him."
