Chapter 174: When we see each other and fight (4)
The two siblings, Mingzhang and Mingying, came to Yunfu, and waited for nearly two hours and did not see Xiu. Mingzhang seemed to be very patient, but Mingying was very impatient. She saw that there was no one in the hall, and even the maid serving tea ran away, and she couldn't help but complain in a low voice: "A widow from a slave and maid, what a big shelf!" ”
Ming Ying said as she stretched out her hand to try the cold teacup, and then snorted coldly: "I don't know what the rules are for leaving the Xinhou Mansion, don't the maids know how to add tea?" ”
"Third sister!" Mingzhang scolded in a low voice, looked around, and then said cautiously: "People have to bow their heads under the eaves, not to mention that this is the Lixin Hou Mansion, you should be careful when you speak." ”
Mingying knew that her brother's words were true, so she had to change the topic and asked, "Big brother, are you sure to convince Mrs. Xiu?" You have a huge debt! ”
Mingzhang pondered for a moment before replying: "Even if I am only three or four percent sure, I will try my best." Think about it, Shen Yu is King Fu's brother-in-law, and the Marquis of Wenchang supported King Fu's rebellion back then, which is a big crime that is full of beheading! However, he Shen Yu escaped, and he reappeared under the protection of the Yun family, which shows that the emperor of heaven gave the Yun family more face......"
When Ming Zhang said this, he looked around again before continuing: "In the past, although our Ming clan did not deal with Emperor Tianzhu, we did not openly oppose his accession to the throne, and my father and aunt have died one after another...... This time, as long as I can persuade Mrs. Xiu to promote me to re-emerge, I will slowly repay the money after I turn over. ”
When Ming Ying heard this, she sighed lightly: "It's a pity that you have already married a wife, and the Yun family has no third daughter to marry." Otherwise, if you become the uncle of the Yun family, this matter will be a matter of course. ”
As soon as the words fell, I suddenly heard a gentle and majestic female voice outside the door: "If you want to marry the Yun family, you can't just be an uncle." ”
Before Mingzhang and Mingying could react, they saw Yun Feng follow a woman in white into the door, and then introduced: "This is my wife." ”
The Ming brothers and sisters immediately got up, and according to the etiquette, it was inconvenient to go directly to the door, so they had to look down to greet each other. The two of them swept a corner of the white skirt and flowed elegantly, and suddenly ingested a faint fragrance in their snorts, and then, the woman in white had passed in front of them with lotus steps.
Izuku walked in front of the Ming brothers and sisters without squinting, slowly sat down on the main seat, and did not forget to invite the two brothers and sisters: "Please sit down." ”
The word "two" is really very subtle, there is no honorific title, no honorific title, no greeting and high, and even "Ming Gongzi and Ming Lady" are not called. It is also said that now that the Ming family has fallen, the identities of Mingzhang and Mingying have plummeted, and they are not nobles. It's just that his brother and sister still feel very ironic when they listen to this sentence "Please sit down".
However, irony is irony, but I can't find any slackness, after all, this is not wrong, they are indeed "two". Moreover, the voice of the speaker was gentle and sweet, and there was no hint of mockery in the sound.
That's where the real genius comes in!
Mingying was angry and couldn't have a seizure, so she could only restrain herself from sitting down again, and she had to force herself to smile and pretend that she hadn't heard anything. She was about to raise her eyes to look at the Yun family's housewife on the throne, wanting to see how bold the legendary Mrs. Izuku was, but before her eyes fell on Izuxiu's face, she first heard the brother beside her gasp, or rather, ...... Whispered admiration?
Mingying was a little curious, so she followed Mingzhang's gaze and looked at the top of the main seat. After taking a look, I felt that Mrs. Xiu was a little familiar, and her beauty was incomparable; At another glance, I couldn't believe it; Finally, when she looked at it, her brain exploded like a lightning strike!
Mingying's eyes suddenly stood up, and she raised her hand tremblingly and pointed to Chuxiu: "You...... You are ......"
Izumi looked back indifferently and asked softly, "What?" Mrs. Ming is not feeling well? She pretended to blame herself, and sighed again: "The concubine is riddled with mundane things today, and it coincides with the victory of King Cheng's rebellion, so it delayed the time and made the two of them wait for a long time. ”
Mingzhang was greatly surprised by Mingying's abnormal behavior, and couldn't help but whisper to her: "Third sister! After saying that, when he saw Xiu again, he only felt that the woman in white in front of him was amazingly beautiful, and even he was amazed by the countless women he had seen. However, as we all know, the second son of Ming is lustful, and the eldest son of Ming is good at gambling, so even if he is beautiful, he will not lose his temper.
Thinking of Fang Caixiu's polite words, Mingzhang couldn't help but straighten his face, and replied: "Madame's words are serious, it was my brother and sister who took the liberty to come to the door, don't blame you." ”
Although Mingzhang said this, he also knew that Mrs. Chuxiu was deliberately hanging them, otherwise she would never choose to meet guests today, at least after learning that Shen Yu was triumphant today, she should have changed her day. Mrs. Izuku, this is giving them a disadvantage.
The more critical this time, the more Mingzhang asked himself, the more he had to calm down, so that he could show his sincerity. Thinking like this, Yu Guang caught a glimpse of Mingying still standing still, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and then smiled at Chuxiu: "My third sister is intimidated by Madame's temperament and has lost her manners. ”
Izuku just smiled and replied, "You're too polite." After that, he glanced at Ming Ying again and said, "Madam, please sit down, if you are uncomfortable, don't force it." ”
Mingying was still immersed in shock, looked Xiu up and down, and asked herself with a drum in her heart: Is there really such a similar person in this world? The lady in front of her is a beautiful woman, and she firmly believes that there is no other in the world. Hasn't Hanchu been dead for years? How could she become the head of the Yun family?
Like, it's so much like that! However, although the faces are the same, the temperament is very different. In the past, like a delicate flower, it was weak and weak, and it couldn't withstand the slightest wind and rain, and when it looked at it, it wanted people to pity and care. Mingying has always believed that it is the pitiful pity of Han Chu that will make Helian Qi unforgettable.
And the stunning woman in white in front of her exudes two styles of innocence and beauty, which is glamorous and compelling, but she is indifferent, and there is a kind of atmosphere that does not eat the fireworks of the world. The temperament and posture revealed by her every expression and every word can make all women in the world ashamed.
Mingying was suspicious, her eyes lingered on her face, and she couldn't speak for a long time. Izumi let her look at her, very calmly, only looked at Mingzhang and asked, "I don't know why you two came?" The concubine listened to the housekeeper of our mansion and said that she did not come to repay her debts. ”
Mingzhang was quite embarrassed when he heard this, and he was distracted and worried about Mingying, so he had no choice but to be cheeky and said: "Don't hide it from Madame, in the past, I was a good gambler, and I relied on the Yun family's funding and help, and I am grateful for this...... But I know that the Yun clan was willing to donate generously at the beginning, it was for the sake of the Ming clan's face, and now you have seen the situation of the Ming clan, for a while, I am afraid that I will not be able to pay the money. ”
Izuku still smiled, his expression did not change, and he replied lightly: "It's okay, the left and right are profitable." If you can't pay it back this year, then pay it back next year. Ming Gongzi can't pay it back, and your children are not there? Moreover, Mrs. Ming is the eldest daughter-in-law of the Helian family, and if she wants to come to this matter, Lord Helian will not ignore it. ”
Mingzhang saw that Xiu's words were gentle, but his words were so tough, and the most important thing was that he couldn't get angry yet. He was anxious in his heart, and sighed on his face: "It is said that 'the wall is down and everyone pushes', although the Helian clan is our in-laws, we can't count on it...... To tell the truth, this amount is too big, and with the current strength of the Ming clan, even if I want to pay back, I am powerless. ”
The family property was copied, the family situation plummeted, and now the Ming family is no longer the descendant of the dynasty, but worthless and scattered.
Hearing this, Izumi looked at Mingzhang with clear eyes, and raised her eyebrows lightly: "What does Ming Gongzi mean, this money will not be returned?" ”
"Nope! It's not that you don't pay it back. Mingzhang hurriedly explained: "I have a business that I want to discuss with you, my wife...... Now that the Ming family has fallen, I don't know if you can recommend me to re-enter the company...... I am confident that as long as I rely on your strength, I will be able to revive the Ming clan, and the money will naturally be able to be repaid in the future. ”
When Mingzhang said this, Izumi only felt disgusted. The shameless person is really shameless, and if he doesn't repay his debts, he still wants to trick the Yun family into contributing money and efforts to ensure that he rejoins the ranks...... Especially listening to Mingzhang's tone, implying that he will be able to pay off his debts one day when he sits in a high position, so he doesn't know how much people's fat and ointment he has to collect.
Izuku can almost imagine that if he agrees to this request today, if Mingzhang does something rebellious in the future, everyone else will count this account on the Yun family, and if it is not good, it will cause public resentment to boil, and it will affect the Yun family's reputation for benevolence.
Thinking of this, Izumi directly smiled and refused: "I'm really sorry, Ming Gongzi's condition, the concubine can't agree." ”
She only said this, and didn't say any reason, Mingzhang saw that Xiu was so simple, but it was not easy to persuade more. He thought about it for a while, and had to say another purpose of the trip: "Since Madame doesn't agree, I won't force it." But there is one more thing to ask for. ”
Izumi was quite patient, and said with a shallow smile: "Since Ming Gongzi is here, it doesn't hurt to say it." ”
At this moment, Mingzhang didn't care about Mingying's reaction anymore, and pondered for a moment and said, "This second thing is completely out of my selfishness. Please also ask Madame to raise your noble hand and let my Ming family live. ”
"Oh? What do you mean by that? ”
"Your sister-in-law, General Shen, used all means when he presided over my father, and if it weren't for him, my Ming clan would not have fallen to such a point. Please also ask Madame, for the sake of this matter, that you can reduce this debt somewhat. Mingzhang paused, and then said: "Actually, when General Shen went to raid his house, he also lost a lot of oil and water. ”
This is really shameless. Could it be that because Shen Yu is the uncle of the Yun family and is responsible for presiding over the Ming family's case, the Yun family will be responsible for the fall of the Ming family? Or is it that because Shen Yu got a benefit when he was in charge of raiding his house, Mingzhang's arrears don't have to be repaid?
Izumi only sneered in his heart, and the people of the secret Ming family were really unreasonable. At this point, she didn't want to listen to Mingzhang continue, so she pretended to look at the sky outside the door and said, "It's not early, and it's time to have lunch." If the two of them don't dislike it, they will stay in our house for a meal. There are many inconveniences for concubines and widows, so let Steward Yun accompany you. ”
The eviction order was also issued too quickly, especially when he kept the meal and asked a housekeeper to accompany him, which was obviously deliberately stepped on! No matter how brazen Rao Mingzhang was, he knew that he was completely rejected by Mrs. Exu. Seeing that Chu Xiu was about to get up and say goodbye and leave, he was in a hurry, and hurriedly used the last killer trick: "Madam, don't forget, my second brother was killed by Yun Sanye!" ”
