Chapter 129: Greed
"No, no matter what, you can't let that old thing scare Miss Cui Jiu."
"No matter how much she has, only my Fang girl can go home from thousands of miles away, this kind of public virtue is enough to offset the rest."
"I, Xu Mao, am a seven-foot man who stands up to the sky and the earth, how can I be that ungrateful, if I retreat today, then what is the difference between me and a beast like Xu Ze?"
When Xu Mao thought of this, he felt that the blood that once belonged to him when he was young was back at this moment, at this moment, here!
"I have to do my best to protect the people that Fang Ya is willing to sacrifice for, so that in the future, when I see my poor daughter a hundred years later, I can tell her with my head held high, 'I am worthy of my father's heart, and I have not put your ninth miss in danger'."
Xu Mao secretly made up his mind in his heart, after so many years, he has gone from a yellow-mouthed child who has not dried up to the age when he is close to knowing the destiny of heaven.
Finally, he had to muster all the courage to confront his enemy
Xu Mao has not only fantasized about the current situation thousands of times, but every time he wants to realize it, he will worry about his children and put himself in the same tragic life experience as himself.
So, every time I muster up courage, and then I get discouraged, how many times has this been repeated?
Xu Mao really can't remember it very clearly
He only knew that he finally didn't need to endure it anymore, and the current situation was very likely to be the biggest crisis that the Xu family would face, but it could also be a great opportunity that was rare in a century.
Between a crisis and a good opportunity. There is always relative uncertainty, Xu Mao has been living a low-key life all his life, I really didn't expect that when he is old, he can still gamble.
"I just hope that God can open his eyes this time and give my Xu family justice!" He gritted his teeth, dug his nails deep into his palms, suppressed his resentment with pain, and said in a deep voice, "Uncle." The matter of my family's girl. That's it. ”
"This child was born with a thin life, drifted away when he was young, died when he was young, and died at the end of his life. I can't even enter my own ancestral grave. What a hard-working child. ”
The nephew thought. I'm afraid it's all fate, it's a matter of God's destiny, how can the laity force it? ”
"I don't plan to let this child go to the ancestral grave. Ming'er's nephew asked people to go to the nunnery of Caiping Mountain, where to place the Fang girl, so that she could receive more incense from the Buddha, so that she could be reincarnated as soon as possible. ”
"As for the rest, I Xu Mao don't want to know now, and I won't dwell on it in the future, so let everything stop at this time."
"Uncle, as the patriarch of my Xu clan, you also have a lot of trivial matters on weekdays, and my nephew really doesn't dare to waste your time, so please take care of yourself."
Cui Wanqing didn't interrupt Xu Mao's words this time, but sat quietly and listened to him finish speaking.
It is not difficult to find that Xu Ze is extremely satisfied with Xu Mao's words, and the smug look in his eyes has overflowed.
The bureau he worked so hard to set up was originally double-minded.
In the first case, Xu Mao continued to be cowardly and relieved about Xu Liang coming out to meet Cui Wanqing, then the result would only be that Cui Wanqing was so frightened by Xu Liang's rudeness that she fled in shock.
In this way, it is guaranteed that the Cui family will not only no longer help the Xu family, but even because of the fact that their own young lady was frightened, they will also punish Xu Mao for the crime of not governing the family strictly!
And if this nephew is a rare man with a responsibility, gritting his teeth and not letting go, it will be the end now.
Xu Mao clings to the nobles, and even ignores the cause of his own daughter's death, isn't it true?
It is conceivable that once this matter is publicized and then polished and rendered, Xu Mao's reputation will be completely stinky, and such a nameless and virtuous villain, even if he is powerful?
A person with a loss of virtue is not worthy of being the patriarch of the Xu family at all!
No matter how things go, the final winner will only be him Xu Ze, with such an ingenious plan, it is no wonder that Xu Ze is so proud of himself.
Cui Wanqing saw through Xu Ze's thoughts, so she appeared in the Xu family with a boat, in order to solve this scourge once and for all.
However, she originally thought that what she was going to face should be Xu Mao's angry questioning, but she really didn't expect that looking at the usual Xu Mao, he was actually a clear-minded person.
Not only was he not fooled, but he also chose to protect Cui Wanqing, but he made the most correct choice.
Although he knew that Xu Mao had his own plans in his heart, he put his bet completely on Cui Wanqing's feelings for Brother Li, and his bet was that Cui Wanqing would not abandon Brother Li.
But I don't know why, this scene instantly evoked her memories, starting from Brother Li carefully helping her do the first thing, one by one, pictures flashed in Cui Wanqing's mind, until the scene where Brother Li was lying in a pool of blood with his eyes wide open.
Tears were almost coming out of her eyes, Cui Wanqing hurriedly raised her head, now is not the time to cry.
In the end, Xu Mao still chose the right one
Cui Wanqing saw Xu Ze get up with full will, and she was about to return with a big victory, knowing that it was time for her to perform in this scene.
She immediately shouted and stopped: "Slow, when Miss Ben saw Brother Li away in Dacheng Tiansi, she made a vow in front of the Buddha that she must be reunited with her family. ”
"Buried in the ancestral grave of the Xu family, he is no longer a lonely ghost in the underworld, so Miss Xu must not agree to Master Xu's proposal."
Speaking of this, she looked directly at Xu Ze with both eyes, and said coldly: "Patriarch Xu, you didn't allow Brother Li to be buried in the ancestral grave that day, and you used someone whose cause of death was unknown and who died in vain. ”
"So, Miss Ben asks you, if Miss Ben can prove that Brother Li did not die in vain, but a righteous person who sacrificed herself to save others, then she can bury the ancestral grave of the Xu family?"
Xu Ze looked at Cui Wanqing, who was still calm and unflustered, and just made a war with him unhurriedly, and suddenly felt a little uneasy in his heart, which was still full of pride.
But. Soon he despised his sudden flustering, "She's just a yellow-haired girl, what are you afraid of her doing?" ”
"Don't look at her dignified atmosphere, it's all because of her usual contact, all of them are high-class people like her who hold a shelf and hold their own identity, this kind of person even thinks it's rude to speak loudly, how have you ever seen the vulgarity of inferior people?"
When she really saw the spills in the township, the unbearable insults. I understand what it means to be true. ”
"Huh. At that time, she will know why Xu Mao, a kid, would rather not even have a reputation. Don't let her see Xu Liang anymore! ”
Come to think of it. Xu Ze raised his hand and stroked the corner of his robe. He sat back in the Taishi chair and smiled, "That's nature, virtuous nephew." Why don't you let Xu Liang come to meet Miss Cui Jiu? ”
Xu Mao was really a little blindsided, he was surprised that Cui Wanqing was a little girl, but she could make a promise.
You must know that many adult men can't do this, but the Miss Cui Jiu in front of him not only did it, but also kept her promise for his Xu Mao's daughter, and the churning in his heart was called a terrible!
Rao is the result of him being defeated by the Cui family with his reputation in exchange for enemies, and he can't help but sigh: "In this world, there are beasts who forget their righteousness and ruthlessly murder their relatives, and there are also good people who are affectionate and righteous and re-promised." ”
I really didn't expect that Cui Wanqing would be the biggest variable today, and the current situation is completely out of control.
These two people have talked about this, if Xu Mao still insists on his opinion and does not let Xu Liang come out, he will definitely be questioned.
He looked at the two sons standing on the side, seized the opportunity to make a look, and motioned to the two of them, as long as he saw Xu Liang's disrespectful behavior for a while, he would hurry up and drag Xu Liang out, don't scare Cui Wanqing too much.
On the other side, Xu Ze was also giving his youngest son a look, and Xu Shu bowed his head cautiously.
Although the manservants he brought were squeezed out by Aunt Huang's words, behind his wife, there were two maids and four sturdy mothers.
Anyway, it has reached the point where there is no way back, he wants to see if the two weak and unruly saint students opposite him can have the courage to make a name for themselves and do it with a woman?
As for the maids brought by Miss Cui's family, Mom, they are really old and young.
Just now I only cared about Cui Wanqing, and others didn't have time to take a closer look, but now after a look, I found that several little maids were quite smart.
All of them are a little more beautiful than flowers, but looking at their delicate bodies with small arms and legs, they must be their own rough women, who only need to slap them over, and they can't even tell the difference between southeast and northwest!
Where to go, let Tuo'er take advantage of the chaos to get to Cui Wanqing, pounce forward, then everything will live, and later, when facing the Cui family's questioning, he can also say in a high-sounding manner, "The dog was in a hurry to obey the power at that time, but my Xu family is willing to take all the responsibility." ”
Think about it, so many people have seen the two of them entangled together, no matter what kind of daughter of a high-ranking official, a noble girl in the capital, your reputation is stinky, your reputation is ruined, and you have to become my Xu Shu's daughter-in-law!
That's right, this is Xu Ze's fight, another extremely arrogant idea, no matter how Cui Wanqing conceived and guessed, he couldn't imagine that this old man would have such a dirty mind.
So even if she didn't stop it just now, Xu Ze's people outside would receive a signal and put Xu Liang into the living room, and Xu Tuo would still act according to the original plan and take advantage of the chaos.
In short, in Xu Ze's view, Jiangyuan County is afraid that it will be decades, and it will be difficult to meet a nobleman in the capital like the Cui family, in line with the idea that the opportunity must not be lost and will not come again.
He made up his mind to use his own extraordinary means to grasp the good things sent by heaven to the Xu family and tie them firmly to his own ship.
What could be more unbreakable than marriage?
Xu Shu thought of his own Lao Tzu, the beautiful promise he made at that time, and finally couldn't help but be happy, and even looked at Cui Wanqing with a little more judgment.
Aunt Huang has been standing behind Cui Wanqing since she entered the hall door, looking at the overall situation with her spirits.
And the main object of observation is the family opposite, judging from the interaction of those people, it is really crooked at the top and crooked at the bottom.
Feelings from Xu Ze, to Xu Shu, to Xu Tuo, these three generations of ancestors and grandchildren, today they are the co-authors to bring a big show.
Her sensitivity quickly discovered something new wrong, but seeing that whether it was Xu Shu's greedy eyes that could not be concealed, or Xu Tuo's panicked look that was so nervous that his whole body trembled, the attention of the father and son was all focused on Cui Wanqing at this time.
It's just that Lao Tzu can't hide it, so he looks at it like that, and the little one is young and careless, and he only dares to peek at it from time to time.
"It seems that Cui Wanqing has become the other party's primary target." Aunt Huang snorted coldly, the soil buns from this village actually hit the idea on the woman that her master likes.
I don't know if I should say that they are dogs?
Or do they not know how dead words are written?
Aunt Huang glanced at the other side coldly, and whispered to Sister Jinling, "You two pay attention for a while, the little white face on the other side doesn't move, don't say anything, as long as you come to our young lady's side, just abolish him, if something happens, aunt and I will bear it!" ”
Jin Ling and Yin Ling nodded again and again, the two of them wanted to evacuate and evacuate their muscles and bones for a long time, and they couldn't help but feel a little excited when they thought they would be able to fight in a while.
But when I think about it again, they are all ordinary people who don't know martial arts, just a few stout old ladies, and I can't help but feel a little lost.
Yinling couldn't help muttering: "Alas, the family didn't say that they could bring a few who could call, it's really boring." ”
Jin Ling glared at her angrily when she heard this, Yin Ling stuck out her tongue when she saw this, shrunk her shoulders, and quickly closed her mouth, not daring to talk casually anymore.
As he spoke, Xu Liang was taken to the hall, and Cui Wanqing saw that he was an old man in his sixties.
Wearing a black cloth short gown and trousers, although they are new, they don't fit at all, they are too wide, and they look like a face pocket on the body, which looks very funny.
As soon as I got used to it, I found that this person's eyes were cloudy, his beard was fried, and there were some unknown objects on it, which made me feel disgusting when I looked at it.
I don't know how serious these people should be when they sing, their attitude is really perfunctory, their plans are so big, they can't even give up a decent outfit, they are really iron roosters, and they don't want to pluck a single hair.
However, no matter what the Xu family says, it is also a scholarly family for generations, how could the squire of Jiangyuan County let such an obscene villain be their housekeeper?
Isn't that too out of style?
Cui Wanqing was really a little puzzled, and couldn't help but glance at Grandma Dai.
Seeing this, Grandma Dai San hurriedly explained in a low voice: "His father was the original housekeeper of our family, and my father grew up under the protection of his father when he was a child. ”
"So I took a little care of this beloved house, and when I found out that he was very wrong, I quickly gave him some silver, and sent him to the countryside to guard the sacrificial fields."
"I didn't expect it" (to be continued......)
