Chapter 431: Father-in-law, I'm just passing by
If it's just a misunderstanding of a few people, it may be a prank, and it's the other party's fault, but if everyone misunderstands, then it's really no wonder.
In today's era, this handsome man and beautiful woman stand together, if it is not a couple, then what else can it be?
Aunt Xu didn't care about this, if she cared about these gossips, then she would have been married to a woman, but she cared more about the attitude of these people towards Guo Dan, and dared to openly tease Guo Dan, and the people around the key were just smiling, and didn't feel anything wrong, you must know that Guo Dan was the contractor of Weihui Mansion, and asked: "How dare they do this to you?" ”
"Don't mention it, it's really self-inflicted!" Guo Dan sighed.
"Huh?"
Aunt Xu frowned and looked at Guo Dan suspiciously.
"I actually did it on purpose." Guo Dan smiled bitterly.
Aunt Xu was surprised: "Why? ”
"Because I feel like if they don't have any fear of me as a contractor, then they won't be afraid of anyone else."
Guo Dan sighed and said: "If I stay here all the time, this situation will never happen, the employees of Yaren don't dare to talk to me like this, it's a pity that I can't stay here, but I won't let others come to plunder the fruits of my victory, there will be no distinction between dignity and inferiority here, only the system, as long as you don't break the law, then it's fine." ”
"I see."
Aunt Xu nodded, and said thoughtfully: "No wonder I came here, I have a very special feeling, but what it is, I can't say clearly, now that I think about it, maybe you are as you said." ”
Guo Dan said: "I thought everyone called you Mrs. Guo." ”
When Aunt Xu heard this, she couldn't help frowning, and said in a deep voice: "They just shouted like that, and I didn't keep silent because I knew that it was useless to explain again, so I didn't bother to talk about it, but you can't laugh at it, it's not funny." ”
"Understood, understood."
Although Guo Dan couldn't see Aunt Xu's face, Aunt Xu's tone let him know that this joke could not be made again.
"Captain Guo is good, Mrs. Guo is good."
An honest-looking uncle walked by, and he nodded slightly and shouted to Guo Dan and Aunt Xu.
“......!”
A breeze blew, but it couldn't dissipate the embarrassing ...... condensed in the air.
Everyone is very tacitly speeding up the pace.
I really can't stay outside for long.
Coming to his long-term rented suite, Guo Dan could be regarded as relieved, and when he was about to enter, he suddenly heard a shout, "Guo Dan." ”
Guo Dan looked back, and saw that Wu Gui walked over quickly, waving his hand while panting and saying, "Guo Dan, it's really time for you to come, I still plan to send someone to Kaifeng Mansion to find you." ”
Oh, my God! Can't you make people take a breather? When Wu Gui approached, Guo Dan immediately said with a sad face: "Father-in-law, I'm just passing by, if you have something, you can wait for me to come back next time." ”
Wu Guidao: "Wait for you to come back?" Do you know what's going on? ”
"It can't be that my bank has been robbed, right?" Guo Dan said nervously.
"You know money, it's a lot more serious than money." Wu Guidao: "A few days ago, the court arrested Mr. Li. ”
Aunt Xu immediately looked sideways at Wu Gui.
"Mr. Li?" Guo Dan was stunned and said, "What Mr. Li?" ”
Wu Guidao: "It's Ning Yuanbo, the son of Li Chengliang, Li Rusong, don't you know that he was transferred here as a chief soldier?" ”
"Oooh... I remembered that there was such a thing. ”
Guo Dan asked again: "But... But how could he be caught? ”
"Because..."
Wu Gui suddenly waved his hand into the door and said, "Let's go into the house and say, let's go into the house and talk, this is not the place to talk." ”
Entering the house, as soon as he sat down, Wu Gui had just opened his mouth, and suddenly glanced at Aunt Xu, who was quite uninteresting.
Guo Dan hurriedly said: "My own people, my own people." ”
Wu Gui smiled: "It turned out to be Mrs. Guo." ”
He hadn't seen Kou Liansha either, he only knew that Kou Liansha was a big beauty.
How many times will this be misunderstood! Guo Dan said depressedly: "Father-in-law, this is a thoughtless layman, not my wife." ”
"Thoughtless? I think I've heard it somewhere. ”
Wu Gui muttered, and suddenly said, "Isn't it the daughter of Xing'anbo?" ”
Aunt Xu bowed slightly.
Wu Gui immediately glanced at Guo Dan.
Only then did Aunt Xu stand up and say, "You guys talk first, you're out of company." ”
She really didn't want to leave, because she was also curious.
But Wu Gui is from the palace, since you are the daughter of Xing'anbo, of course some things can't be said in front of you.
Guo Dan didn't say anything more, because he didn't know what was going on now.
After Aunt Xu went out, Wu Guicai said: "Here's the thing, just three days ago, Mr. Li lost a lot of money in a gambling house in the eastern suburbs....... ”
"Gambling house?"
Guo Dan blurted out.
"Yes, there have been a lot of people secretly opening gambling houses recently, but that's going to be talked about later."
Wu Guiyi waved his hand, feeling very dissatisfied with Guo Dan's interruption of his words, and said: "At that time, Mr. Li lost his red eye, so he wanted to ask the owner to borrow money, but he had borrowed a lot before, and the owner refused to borrow, so Mr. Li smashed the gambling house and injured the owner.
The owner of the workshop went directly to the court, and the gentry did not dare to sentence at that time, after all, Li Zongbing held the military power, but the problem was that those litigators refused to give up, and Li Rusong must be convicted, and the court was forced to have no choice, so the picket was ordered to arrest people.
But the problem is that Li Rusong committed a crime, so he has been in the barracks all the time, and he went to the barracks to arrest people, isn't this self-defeating? ”
When Tong Li was here before, the picket was also under the control of Tong Li, but that was because of the special period, after Li Rusong took office, he still came according to the rules, he was only in charge of the army, and the picket was promoted by Tong Li A person named Yan Shen served as the president.
Yes, it's terrible to go to the barracks to catch the head of the military department. Guo Dan hurriedly asked, "Then did they go?" ”
"I can't help it!"
Wu Gui glared at Guo Dan: "It's all your fault, setting such a rule, this evidence is conclusive, if the picket court doesn't go, the litigation court will even sue the picket." ”
"Father-in-law Shicai seems to say that Li Rusong has been arrested, which means that the picket has been arrested? Or was he arrested later by a ploy? ”
"I was arrested right then."
When Wu Gui said this, he was apprehensive, and wiped his sweat with a silk handkerchief: "At that time, Li Rusong and his cronies planned to arrest the pickets, but it was really thanks to those soldiers who had been taken by Tong Li before, and most of them were from Weihui Mansion, they all obeyed the orders of the court, and they did not obey Li Rusong's orders at that time. ”
Guo said lightly: "Since he has been arrested, then it's okay." ”
"I said you are really simple, or are you pretending to be confused here!"
Wu Gui snorted: "If you are caught, you have to be punished, and losing money is still a trivial matter, but according to our rules here, you have to let Li Rusong do coolies and push dung trucks, and the imperial court system also allows it." But the group of stinky and hard literati in the litigation court must let Li Rusong be punished.
But the court didn't dare to mess around, and they didn't know if they had this power, so they found me, and I was just about to send someone to Kaifeng Mansion when I heard the news of your coming. ”
Guo Dan looked embarrassed: "But it's useless to look for me, I have no power." ”
Wu Guidao: "You don't have power, but you have to take responsibility, Weihui Mansion is contracted to you in the end." ”
"When my father-in-law said that, I felt that I had done something stupid."
"I've always said you're doing something stupid, but you're still proud."
"I can't help it! If I don't do this, then Weihui Mansion is Li Rusong's final say, don't say that he asks you to borrow money, he just wants it, you have to give it too, does this businessman dare to stay here? Guo Dan said depressedly.
"It's not unreasonable for you to say that, but how to deal with this?"
"Or, play Your Majesty, let Your Majesty decide?"
Guo Dan didn't want to take this responsibility.
Wu Guidao: "But don't, then Li Rusong has offended no fewer people than you, this is going to the imperial court, the ministers will definitely impeach him, Your Majesty will be difficult to do, don't make trouble to the imperial court unless you have to." ”
It really deserves to come out of the palace, and in this matter, he has a very keen sense of smell, and if he really makes trouble, this matter can be big or small.
The key is because Wanli attaches great importance to Li Rusong, if he goes to the court, Wanli will definitely protect Li Rusong, and the fat house may become a thin house.
Let the fat house live!
"I'll have to think about it."
Guo Dan couldn't make up his mind for a while, and asked again: "What's going on with the gambling house?" I don't remember that I was allowed to open a gambling house? ”
"But you didn't say you wouldn't allow it!"
"The law does not allow it."
"The law still does not allow the opening of the green building, but who opened the first green building in Weihui Mansion."
"King Lu!"
“...... Then do you want to hold King Lu responsible? ”
"I .....!"
Guo Dan was almost suspicious of Wu Guiyi's life, and said: "Okay, okay, I will go to the court later, and all the gambling houses must be seized, it is not easy for those employees to make some money, this hard-earned money, all the brains will be thrown into the gambling houses, dare to love me to contract Weihui Mansion, it is to serve those gambling houses, and the gambling houses are the most likely to breed usury, and many people will be trapped." ”
Wu Gui listened happily: "Guo Dan, it seems that you know a lot about this gambling house, and usury has already appeared." ”
"Really?"
"Really."
Wu Guidao: "This also has something to do with you, it was you who opened a money village here first, so there are also many Jin merchants who open tea houses here, because tea is the main goods they sell to Mongolia, so this tea house hoards goods and hoards money, which is similar to that money village, and also borrows." ”
"It's Jin Shang again, these guys are really pervasive."
Guo Dan rolled his eyes, if the Jin merchants didn't finally invest their money in the land, then they were really pure capitalists, as long as they made money, they would do anything, it shouldn't be that they still embarked on the road of landlords in the end.
"It's all a trivial matter, the key is Li Rusong's problem, how do you plan to solve it? This matter can be resolved quickly, if it reaches the capital, it is not easy to say, and maybe it will affect Weihui Mansion. ”
Wu Gui said with an anxious face.
He knows very well what is at stake, although Li Rusong is just one person, behind him is the Li family, involving Liaodong, Wanli, and the cabinet.
Guo Dan pinched his forehead and wailed: "Father-in-law, I'm really just passing by." ”
