Chapter 684 Two Contracts, Which Is True And Which Is False
Because Bai Ruozhu was going to go to the hall tomorrow, he didn't stay long, chatted with Yu Hongsleeve for a few words, and then took Xiaosi home.
Xiao Si was very happy to get Mr. Ji's praise, and when he got home, he ran back to the house to practice calligraphy, Bai Ruozhu saw that he was studious, and he also felt very pleased.
She went to Lin Ping'er's house to watch the pedaling, and the rest of the family was busy, so the mother and the mother took the pedal in the house and whispered.
"Mother, I want to go to Beijing with Changsheng for a while, and take the pedals with me. After chatting for a while, Bai Ruozhu spoke.
Lin Ping'er was taken aback, but soon she came back to her senses and muttered, "You should follow your husband too." ”
Bai Ruozhu put her arm around her mother and shook it, and said a little coquettishly: "Mother, let's take the waterway, go and return quickly, I can't bear you and my father." ”
Lin Ping'er knew her daughter in the end, she frowned, grabbed Bai Ruozhu's hand, and asked, "Ruozhu, tell your mother honestly, is it because someone from that Chengshui country wants to arrest you?"
Bai Ruozhu smiled bitterly, it seemed that she couldn't hide it from her mother's side.
"Chengshui Kingdom's stronghold in Beiyu City has been destroyed by the Immortals, but they have hidden their head and have never found it, and they are afraid that Chengshui Country will send others to come. Saying that, her voice was much lower, "There are also big officials in the imperial court who want to get rid of me as a hidden danger, for fear that I will be arrested and used by Chengshui State." ”
Her voice was almost soft, but when it was close, Lin Ping'er still understood, her eyes widened in shock, and she asked, "How can they do this......?"
Bai Ruozhu interrupted her mother's words, "Shhh, be careful that the wall has ears, Changsheng has been protecting me, and not everyone thinks so, at least the saint is a philanthropic person today, and he will never be like this, so I have to go to Beijing with Changsheng and solve this matter as soon as possible." ”
"Yes, you just go, you don't have to worry about things at home, you must take care of your own affairs first. Lin Ping'er's eyes were red as she spoke.
Bai Ruozhu took his mother's hand and said, "Mother, don't tell the rest of the family about this, in case the people who protect the yard don't hear it well." ”
Lin Ping'er probably also understood, it was the senior official of the General Administration Department who wanted to get rid of Bai Ruozhu, and she immediately nodded, "Mother knows the severity, so she won't say more." ”
"I'm about to leave in less than a month, I have the eldest brother and second brother at home to take care of, if there is an emergency, you can ask Mrs. Meng for help, and Changsheng and I will rush back as much as possible." Bai Ruozhu said.
"Okay, my mother wrote it down. ”
Because her daughter was going to travel far away, although she was not going to leave immediately, Lin Ping'er was still sad, and Bai Ruozhu chatted with her for a while before she laughed again.
Most of the screens ordered by Mrs. Meng have been completed, and Bai Ruozhu has decided to solve this matter first in the next few days, and she will hand it over to Mrs. Meng before leaving.
There are also maids who need to do handicrafts at home, so she immediately went to buy four maids, one of whom was sent to the Hua Xiangrong Weaving Museum, and the remaining three were handed over to Aunt Lin to teach them simple crochet work.
The maids she specially selected have no relatives, the background is clean, and then the maids who do crochet are not easy to go out, there are guards to watch, and they are not afraid of leaking their skills. As for the maids who often go out and show their heads, they are not allowed to touch crochet techniques.
In a blink of an eye, Jiang Yichun originally wanted to accompany Bai Ruozhu to go to the hall on the morning of the second day, but in the end he was persuaded by Bai Ruozhu, saying: "What if people recognize your identity and think that you are using your power for personal gain?"
Jiang Yichun said indifferently: "Seek a fart, Lao Tzu's woman has been bullied, and she can't support you?"
Bai Ruozhu couldn't help laughing, his intimacy and protection made her temporarily forget about him secretly borrowing money from others.
"It's better not to, otherwise you go around outside, in case there is any change in the hall, you can make arrangements?" Bai Ruozhu said with a smile.
Jiang Yichun thought about it like this, so he didn't insist anymore.
Bai Ruozhu went to the mansion, and when he went in, he happened to see Old Man Du getting out of the carriage, he looked at Bai Ruozhu's eyes were extremely vicious, and he snorted coldly and said, "But I underestimated you Bai Ruozhu." ”
"There are many people who are underestimated by Du Lao, and sometimes others don't necessarily can't play with you, but they just don't have time to worry about you. Bai Ruozhu replied.
"Hmph, we'll see!" juniper snorted coldly and walked into the court first.
Bai Ruozhu shrugged his shoulders, this old man is still so old and strong, whoever enters the court first and whoever comes later will have to fight with her.
In the sound of "mighty", Lu Minglang came out to ascend to the hall, he looked at the master on the side and said, "Let the steward of the Chamber of Commerce come up." ”
Soon, a steward came up with a contract, Bai Ruozhu couldn't help frowning, this person was not Jiang Yichun mentioned the steward who kept the contract. No wonder Jun Songbai just had such a fight with her, and no wonder he was not angry or half depressed, it turned out that he had arranged for someone to make a fake and bought off the steward of the Chamber of Commerce.
Don't think about it, the contract is fake, naturally there is that sentence, Lu Minglang said after reading it: "Bai, there is indeed this sentence in the contract, you need to pay compensation according to the contract to terminate the contract." ”
"My lord, wait a minute!" came the voice of an old man outside the door of the public hall, his beard and hair were all white, but he looked in good spirits, his face was ruddy and healthy, and he shouted in that voice was full of energy, just like Jiang Yichun described: He is a guy with white hair and old age.
Because Jiang Yichun is very familiar with him, he mentions this person very casually.
"Who's coming?" asked Lu Minglang.
The old man took out the waist card and showed it to Lu Minglang, and said: "The old man is the old steward of the Chamber of Commerce in Anyuan Town, and he specially rushed over from Anyuan Town, just to present this real contract to the adults, and to prevent the Chamber of Commerce from being broken by some black sheep!"
Don't look at his kind face, but when it comes to the last sentence, there is already a sense of slaughter in his tone, and this old man is not an ordinary character.
Bai Ruozhu looked at the steward who took the fake contract, his face had changed since the old man appeared, and he was already as white as a piece of paper.
Jun Songbai didn't expect such a person to appear, he narrowed his eyes slightly, and said: "This steward was found by an official messenger, and it is more credible than you, who came out of thin air, right? Who knows if you were bought by the Bai family." ”
The old man laughed, as if he had heard something funny, he stroked his snow-white beard, and said, "Go and call Ge Qian, the president of the Northwest Branch, to come, just say that Lin Zhenghui is here, and ask him to clean up the portal." ”
Lu Minglang knew that Ge Qian, the president of the Northwest Branch, was just a haunted person, and he didn't know if he could find someone. But he also saw that the old man's identity was extraordinary, and he thought that he could really find someone according to what he said, maybe it would really work, and he also wanted to see who had done the fake.
