Chapter 261
When he was a child, he also wanted to be like the eldest grandson of his third uncle's family, study hard and do learning, and add glory to his mother in the future. But at that time, who and what did he meet?
Liu Shulai hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled a little reluctantly, but it's all over, hasn't no one dared to bully him after so many years?
The man was still scolding, and it was not until he saw that Liu Shulai did not react at all, and then gradually extinguished.
But he didn't shout, and the head of the Liu family who came out after him smashed his crutches hard, and scolded Liu Shulai and Lin Baoru: "You two don't hurry up and admit your mistakes!" Now that you are going to die, is it possible that you still don't know how to repent? ”
Originally, most of the people who came to look for the bad luck of the Liu Mansion this time were acting according to the eyes of the head of the Liu family, and when everyone saw that he spoke, they naturally blamed Liu Shu.
As for Liu Shulai's ridicule of the woman sitting on the ground, no one took the opportunity to ask.
After all, as long as they find an opportunity to add some flaws to Liu Shulai's reputation, it is already their instinct.
Of course, husband and wife are one, Liu Shulai was forced to bow his head, and Lin Baoru's reputation as the young lady of the Liu family will naturally follow.
In any case, blaspheming women, injuring people's maids, and now refusing to admit their mistakes by relying on their family background, and even sneering at others, this matter can't be said anywhere.
Now in front of the Liu Mansion, except for the head of the Liu family with a cold face and a solemn face scolding Liu Shulai and Lin Baoru, the rest are full of righteous indignation. Especially the women, they blamed them even more, and even complained one after another that Mrs. Liu had not disciplined her son well, nor did she find a good daughter-in-law for the Liu family.
The patriarch's wife sighed even more pretendedly, and said earnestly: "Our old Liu family has been in the family for several generations, but there has never been a person who dares to be a person. If your father is still alive, I'm afraid I won't be able to see our Liu family's reputation being trampled on so badly! ”
As soon as she said this, Mrs. Liu and Liu Shulai changed their faces together, and Liu Shulai, who was still full of disdain, clenched his fists and glared at her angrily.
Don't say that Liu Shu is here, but Lin Baoru is also very tired of her kind of style in her heart, and the tongue of the living person is just a few noisy words, but she has to poke people's hearts and involve the ancestors!
Thinking of this, Lin Baoru didn't need Mrs. Liu and Liu Shu to speak, she first sneered at each other with a cold face: "If my father-in-law is still alive, I'm afraid that outsiders will not be able to bully him!" ”
"Since the patriarch and grandmother mentioned my father-in-law, then I also want to ask, if my father-in-law stands in front of me, do you dare to openly and secretly point at me and my father-in-law to ruin the reputation of the Liu family?" Lin Baoru didn't even bother to sneer at her, she just looked at the patriarch's wife coldly, and asked word by word, "If that's the case, the patriarch's grandfather, patriarch's grandmother, and the uncles and aunts who came to the door today, do you dare to pat your chest and say again, are you for the good of our family?" ”
Her question made the Liu family relatives present look a little evasive.
Even some people who were still afraid of some faces subconsciously took half a step back, for fear of being seen by Lin Baoru's sharp and cold eyes.
The patriarch's wife would dare to stiffen her neck and force her words, so she could only reluctantly say with an ugly face: "I'm a lot of old people, if it's not for the good of the Liu family, can I have other selfish intentions?" ”
After speaking, she looked at Mrs. Liu, who was speechless, reproachfully, "Come on, mother, I used to look at you as a polite person, why do you look at your daughter-in-law now?" Anyway, my wife is also her grandmother, and you see her so rude? ”
Lin Baoru glanced back at her mother-in-law, but saw that her mother-in-law didn't show the slightest expression of blaming herself, and Liu Shulai, who was already angry, also returned to her previous casual appearance at this time. Now, what else is she not clear?
Just now, the patriarch's wife mentioned her father-in-law, who has already committed the taboo of her mother-in-law. And today's out, I'm afraid that it will completely hurt my mother-in-law's heart, even if she cares about face, I'm afraid she doesn't want to save face for these bloodsuckers of the Liu family anymore.
As for Liu Shulai, with his kind of "I'm not happy, don't want to be happy" temperament, it's strange that he can endure these people's big thorns riding on his head. Besides, at the beginning, when he mentioned the so-called relatives of the Liu family, wasn't he also very disgusted?
At that time, he was the first to give himself a support.
Lin Baoru had confidence in her heart, and when she spoke again, her voice was like spitting ice slag, "What the patriarch grandmother said is really good, if you are talking about the first ten years, the patriarch grandfather relied on the management of the ready-to-wear shop under my father's mother, filled his own pockets, and openly and secretly ate thousands of taels of profits and kickbacks from the Liu Mansion is a selfless word, then I have nothing to say." ”
As soon as her words fell, the onlookers were in an uproar.
Thousands of taels of silver, that's so much that ordinary people can't even think of it.
Even the mothers-in-law who came to join in the fun began to count with their fingers how much house land could be purchased for a thousand taels of silver.
At this time, not to mention the surprise and surprise of outsiders, the Liu family, who was following the head of the Liu family and wanted to find some sweetness, began to whisper. Reading the book
As for the mother-in-law who was still sitting on the steps and wanted to make trouble again, and the man who was howling about the distressed girl before, they couldn't help but glance at each other, revealing greedy eyes.
The patriarch's wife was stared at by Lin Baoru and took a few steps back, her whole face became hideous because of her anger, "You wicked woman is really bloody, don't think about silver and go crazy!" ”
Lin Baoru raised her eyebrows, didn't short of breath at all, and sneered: "You don't have to be in a hurry to refute, this matter is always well documented." Even if the account book can be faked, those merchants who have confessed to the Liu Mansion should not be able to do so. If the patriarch and grandmother think that I have wronged you, we don't have to go to the yamen to toss, I will directly send a message to the shopkeeper of the Xiao family, and ask him to help call the merchants over, let's just face the gong and the drum in front of the inventory. ”
When the time comes, it will naturally be clear about the merits, and it can also explain why the patriarch's grandfather and grandmother have two uncles and cousins, who have not worked to earn money for many years, but they live in a high-rise mansion compound, with dozens of acres of fertile land under their names. The family was stunned because they only relied on the salary of the patriarch's grandfather as a steward in the garment shop, and they were able to live in the envy of the relatives and friends of the Liu family. ”
If a thousand taels of silver on the front are watery, then these are really visible and touchable in the back.
In fact, for the matter of the head of the Liu family, all of them have to thank Liu Shulai for not doing his job all these years. He didn't do anything serious, he asked about these gossips, after those Wang Batu at the beginning, Liu Shulai was really real, with disgust, and talked to her about the relatives who had been powerful inside and outside the Liu Mansion over the years.
Previously, Lin Baoru thought that the past was over, and she had never married at that time.
But now that she is married, her mother-in-law has handed over all the business to herself, so she can't let outsiders take advantage of Liu's property and money in her own hands.
But now it seems that she thinks very well, but others may not necessarily get cheap and good.
Since they don't know how to behave, then they should teach them to be obedient.
Seeing that she was still aggressive, and that she was still climbing the yard and fields that her family had secretly saved over the years, she was panicked and anxious, and couldn't help but raise her voice and gritted her teeth and said angrily: "You little prodigal hoof is not afraid of a bad conscience when you say this, our family has worked hard to save so much money, has it become a sin?" ”
With this shout, she directly recognized the words in Lin Baoru's mouth, and even more let everyone show a little disdain when they saw her and the patriarch of the Liu family who had just spoken righteously.
How to say it, it is also the head of the Liu family who pretends to be too human and dog-like on weekdays. In other words, he always wants to be a bitch and set up an archway, regardless of whether he is doing business or gossiping before, he is not feeling his own helplessness and hard work, and by the way, he preaches a few words to others, to the effect that he is nothing more than to be an elder to dedicate and pay, and always help the clansmen.
is obviously more greedy than anyone else, but he always holds his face.
Now that he was beaten back to his original form by Lin Baoru with a few words, he didn't say that the shopkeepers of the nearby shops and tea shops were the storytellers, and the rest of the young people of the Liu family who came with him were secretly speechless.
I used to know that the eldest young master of the Liu family was not prosperous, and Mrs. Liu was the only one in the family who struggled to support the family business. So much so that many people feel that if there is no help from the relatives in the Liu family, the Liu Mansion may not be in decline.
With Liu Shu to make a comparison, the head of the Liu family and a few uncles who did their best to manage things in the shop were complimented.
Over time, when everyone laughed at Liu Shulai, they would inevitably sigh a few words of loss to the Liu family, and there were several reliable elders in charge.
And now, this mask of the head of the Liu family has been nakedly pierced by Lin Baoru, does it make him a joke?
The jokes of the eldest young master of the Liu family have been passed on by the people in the town for more than ten years, and it is not uncommon for everyone to make trouble about him. At most, when he is stubborn or prodigal, they tell each other as a joke.
But those high-sounding people who still think they are upright and innocent, once their personalities collapse, the ridicule and excitement caused are much greater than Liu Shulai's.
The patriarch of the Liu family saw that his mother-in-law had fallen into Lin Baoru's trap in a daze, and when he heard the people around him follow Lin Baoru's words, they guessed how much silver he had embezzled from Liu's mansion, and he couldn't help but be angry.
However, he also knew that he couldn't provoke Lin Baoru anymore now, so he could only yell at his mother-in-law with a cold face: "Shut up, no one will treat you as a dumb person if you don't speak!" ”
The patriarch's wife, who was reprimanded, was directly dumbfounded, not because she didn't want to scold, but because she didn't dare. After all, even if she was brainless, she realized that what she said was Lin Baoru's way.
Lin Baoru looked at the patriarch's wife and didn't dare to say anything, but her face turned black and red because she suddenly closed her mouth, and her heart couldn't help but feel a little happy.
The patriarch of the Liu family, who was picked up in public, gritted his back molars at this time, and he couldn't wait for people to block Lin Baoru's mouth directly.
But even if he was angry, he knew the severity, and the best way to do this was to suppress the matter first. Otherwise, he would have to fold his face here.
