Chapter 4: Another Scheme
"That's right, that's it! This is equivalent to a puzzle, we now know the first half of the problem, as long as we can get the second half of the sentence out of Baililan's mouth, we can solve the questions that have plagued us for many years. When we occupied Dingnan Mansion back then, it was really clean inside, and there was no more property, don't you think it's strange? Come to think of it, it must be the fourth brother who hid the treasures, and this sentence is the key! ”
What Baili Qingfeng said was exactly what the second uncle had about back then, but because of his identity, he couldn't ask too clearly. Without the support of King Dingnan, the whole family is already going downhill, and now the family needs a huge amount of money to make up for the shortfalls, otherwise in less than five years, the entire Baili family will be in debt and completely collapse! So Baili Qingfeng's suggestion made him very excited, although he also knew that by doing so, he was indeed ashamed of the fourth. However, such a choice is also a last resort, all for the longevity of the family, and the fourth child should understand. Besides, after Baililan's girl married into Lanling, she enjoyed endless glory and wealth, and she didn't care about this little money at all. I don't want her to take care of the family, as long as she is willing to agree to this matter, then it will not be a problem for the entire family to go to the ceremony!
Thinking like this in his heart, the second uncle has already made a choice. And Baili Qingfeng has been observing the expression of the second uncle on the side, and seeing his instantly gloomy face, he knows how the second uncle chooses.
"You know the situation of our family, if there is any other way, I won't fight the idea of the fourth child's family property. You go and talk to the girl of the Baili family, we are a family after all, let her not care too much about the gains and losses, and let her say everything she knows. ”
"Yes, second uncle, please rest assured, Qingfeng will definitely convince that girl!"
Bending over and exiting from the room, the breeze faded from the resignation just now, and replaced it with a calculating look on his face.
Baili Qingfeng didn't have such a good mind, and the reason why he thought of blackmailing Baili Lan for the sake of the family's interests was because he took a fancy to a piece of land next to the down-and-out Dingnan Palace. Although the land is empty now, it is a treasure of feng shui, next to the root of the imperial city, close to both waterways. As long as you take that piece of land, no matter what you do, you can make money every day, which is much stronger than those unreliable treasures! As for the second uncle's side, he had already thought of a rhetoric, he could make up a map or something at will, and insisted that it was left by the fourth brother, and the second uncle couldn't be broken, so who could blame him?
With such a thought, Baili Qingfeng found Baili Lan, but when he saw this girl just now, the whole person was stunned, because the domineering girl in front of him, where is the original straw bag beauty?
"Third master, why don't you speak? Isn't the tea that the slave maid brewed for you not delicious? If you don't like it, you can remake it! Xia Yu has been waiting by the side, with a gun and a stick in his tone, if he can, Xia Yu wants to greet the hot tea in his hand to his face!
In fact, you can't blame Xia Yu for being so ruthless, that day the king of Dingnan had just passed away, and the family was in chaos, not only did the family not come out to uphold justice, but instead sent this hundred miles of breeze to search the Dingnan Wangfu inside and out, and looted all the valuable things. If it weren't for the foresight of the county lord and hiding the dowry early, I am afraid that he would have to marry into the Chen Mansion alone. Those days were really hard, in order to survive, I had to give the Dingnan Mansion to my family, those devils who ate people got cheap, and even said with a bitter face that there was no fart, if it wasn't for the face of the clan, it would be impossible to buy it at this price! It's really a shame that those black-hearted people can say this and buy the entire Dingnan Mansion at a price half cheaper than the one on the market, where can I find such a good thing in the world? As a result, the county lord and other masters had no place to live, so they could only disperse, go back to their homes, and wander away. People of the same clan should help each other, and the Dingnan Wangfu has no backbone, so the heirs of the Dingnan King should be taken care of and raised to adulthood. But what about the same clan of the Baili family? Kidnap all the money, and don't care if the rest of the people live or die! Such a bad clan deserves retribution!
Xia Yu doesn't have a good temper for this hundred miles of breeze, and the other maids do the same to him, even Qiu Shuang, who has the best temper, has cold eyebrows and gloomy eyes.
Observing everyone's reactions, Bai Lilan could guess how this man treated Dingnan Wangfu back then. No matter what time it is, there are still a few people who send charcoal in the snow, but there are long queues of people who fall into the well.
"Lan'er, are you too busy outside, and you don't have time to teach your minions a lesson, why are you so cunning and arrogant one by one!" Baili Qingfeng looked at Xia Yu with disgust, pointed at her nose and scolded angrily, "Cheap hoof, who are you talking to, do you know what dignity and humility are?" If I find out that you dare to be disrespectful to me again, I will sell you to Goolan Courtyard! ”
"You ......"
As soon as Xia Yu wanted to rush over, she was stopped by Bai Lilan's fluttering wave.
Gently retracting her palm, Baili Lan put her hands on her cheeks, looked at Baili Qingfeng with misty eyes, and said slowly, "Who did you just say is a cheap hoof?" ”
"That's it, the one in the red dress!" Baili Qingfeng thought that Baili Lan was going to vent for himself, and he was busy pointing at Xia Yu, and his tone was gloomy. But looking at it, Baili Qingfeng's expression suddenly changed, and a layer of obscenity gradually surged under his eyes, he stroked his chin, nodded and said, "This hoof looks good, her skin is white and her ass is curvy, so I will give her to your third uncle, and I will send you a female slave another day!" ”
Bai Lilan laughed softly, the smile was very contemptuous, "It's not easy to be my slave girl, in addition to being able to serve people, smart and clever, you also need to be ruthless, jealous and hateful, you can hold a needle and thread in your hands, and you can also raise a knife to cut at the enemy." The servant girl you just saw kills the most, do you know how she is used to killing people? is to take advantage of the other party's inattention, take a knife, and cut his neck with a knife! She didn't like to wear red clothes originally, but because there were too many killings, clothes of other colors were always dirty, and it was not easy to wash them when they were dirty, so she simply chose a red one. In fact, it's not all dye, and there are traces of blood from living people! ”
Baili Lan described it in too much detail, and the hairs that stood on end all over the body of Baili Qingfeng who listened to it, didn't even dare to look at Xia Yu. Baili Qingfeng said in a trembling voice, "You...... You are a county lord, how can you keep such a brutal person by your side? It's not safe for you! ”
"That's wrong, with her, it's safest. I am a woman alone, and it is inevitable that I will meet young people, such as ......" Baili Lan looked at Baili Qingfeng faintly, and every word he said sprayed on his face like a gust of wind, which was terrifying, "Those who beat me with the idea of property, those who want me to sell the house, and those who dare to deceive me, I will hand them over to Xia Yu to clean up." Occasionally, those who were killed would also explain, but I had experienced too much, and I didn't bother to listen, so I just let Xia Yu come forward and solve it with one knife, otherwise my ears would grind out calluses. After saying so much, Baili Lan seemed to suddenly remember the main purpose of Baili Qingfeng's visit today, looked at him with wide eyes, and asked very seriously, "That's right." Why did the third uncle come here suddenly today, is there something to do with me? ”
Originally, there were, but after hearing the intimidation, how could Baili Qingfeng say what he meant? My legs have long been scared and weak!
"That...... That, it's not me who came to discuss with you, it's the second uncle, he asked me to come and see how your wedding is prepared. After all, they are all from their own clan, and if you get married, you can't express it in the family. ”
"Heh, the second uncle is really polite, how can Lan'er be deed. Please go back and tell the second uncle, just say that Lan'er has not forgotten the 'good' of her family for many years, and she has remembered everything, and she dare not forget it at all! Now that I'm back in the capital, I'm also looking for a chance to go back to see my second uncle, since you've come here to visit Lan'er, then in a few days, Lan'er will also return to the clan to visit! ”
For some reason, Baili Qingfeng suddenly felt that he had no strength in his waist, and he almost couldn't sit still. He stabilized his mind and smiled reluctantly, "You have this filial piety, the second uncle is already very moved, you don't have to go back, really!" Besides, you still have to prepare for marriage, where do you have the mind to be busy with anything else? ”
"This third uncle is wrong, no matter how busy he is, he can't forget his roots! And the matter of marriage is busy with the next person, so I don't need to worry about anything. Okay, that's it, you go back and talk to your second uncle, and I will visit Baili Lan another day, and thank my family for the 'care' of my Dingnanfu family for many years! The third uncle is quite famous in the clan, and he should be busy with official business, so Lan'er will not delay your time. Come, send off! ”
"No, I ......"
Before Baili Qingfeng's words were finished, Xia Yu stood in front of him menacingly, stretched his arm forward, and said in a cold voice, "Don't do this and that, please hurry!" ”
I don't know if it's because Baili Lan explained, Baili Qingfeng saw the red skirt at the moment, and he felt uncomfortable in his stomach and almost wanted to gause. Baili Qingfeng didn't want to see Xia Yu for a moment, so he turned around and ran out in a hurry. It's just that when Baili Qingfeng stood on the street where people came and went, he turned around, and dared to say nothing to him, so he was swept out of the house by a little girl!?
In the county lord's mansion, the master and servant of Baili Lan were sitting together, recalling the unbearable scenes of the year.
