Chapter 170: Preserved Eggs
Just as Gu Shun's plan was gradually taking shape, in his keen perception, he suddenly felt the sound of dense footsteps coming from the courtyard.
Beside him, Mr. Yuan also frowned slightly, obviously sensing that someone outside was walking towards him.
Soon after, the door was slammed open, and the cold wind carried the rain into the house, adding a little coolness to the already cold room.
The two Zhang family members led by the first door and stood on both sides of the door like door gods.
Immediately afterwards, a fat man with a bloated figure of about two or three hundred pounds, with a big round belly, moved his two stubby legs, and entered the house comically.
Every step she takes, the fat on her body trembles up and down with the pace, the fat head and big ears, like a pig standing on two feet, which makes people laugh.
Behind her were several housekeepers with sticks in their hands, all of them fierce and vicious, with obscene and arrogant expressions.
Mother Zhang and Zhang Yi'an's faces all changed, especially Mother Zhang, who said tremblingly: "Lord Predan Egg, didn't you come here just now, we really don't have anything good here to honor you, please raise your noble hand and let us go." ”
It turned out that the fat pig-like person in front of him was the personal maid of the Zhang family's wife Li, preserved eggs.
She is the culprit who made Zhang Yi'an's family a mess, and now she dares to show off her might.
Gu Shun happened to want to clean her up, so she sent it to the door by herself.
After Pidan entered the door, he looked left and right, and said to Gu Shun and Mr. Yuan, "Which of you two is the person sent by Gu Gongzi?" ”
Gu Shun took a step forward and said in an unkind tone: "I am, I don't know what the girl is looking for me." ”
"Our lady heard that Gu Gongzi sent a distinguished guest and gave some gifts to the sixth young master, I don't know what it was, our lady hopes to send the gift to the main house in the backyard first, and then return it to the sixth young master after she checks it."
Gu Shun sneered and said: "I'm afraid this is not in accordance with the rules, the things that our young master gave to Zhang Gongzi are gifts between friends, is it possible that Mrs. Zhang even cares about these, and still can't believe the things given by my young master, I am afraid that there is some danger hidden in it." ”
Pidan said arrogantly: "I don't dare, it's just that the sixth young master is the young master of the Zhang family after all, and his wife is his mother, and it is the Zhang family's family affair for the mother to discipline her son, and I hope this distinguished guest will not interfere." ”
According to traditional etiquette, it is extremely rude to open the gifts given by others in person, even if the Li family really wants what Gu Shun sends, they can wait for him to leave, and then take it by trickery in various names, or even directly grab it, and get the things that Gu Shun gave to Zhang Yi'an.
However, the Li family directly sent preserved eggs to blackmail in front of Gu Shun, obviously with ulterior motives.
She did this in order to expose Zhang Yi'an's cowardice and despicability in front of the Gu family, and then bribed the people sent by Gu Shun through bribery, so that he could go back and say bad things about Zhang Yi'an, and devalue him to worthless.
In this way, the relationship between the two can be separated, so that Gu Shun can alienate Zhang Yi'an, and completely cut off the possibility of Zhang Yi'an using Gu Shunfei and Huang Tengda.
Once Zhang Yi'an was snubbed by Gu Shun, he lost his value, and there was no possibility of turning over in the Zhang family, so the Li family would be able to completely control and squeeze him out.
Although doing so will ruin some Gu Shun's views on the Zhang family, it will not be beneficial to Zhang Peien's plan.
However, squeezing Zhang Yi'an away from Gu Shun can also further consolidate her own child's status in the Zhang family, and what can get close to Gu Shun must be his Li family's flesh and blood.
If she can't get it, she must destroy it.
As long as Guiyi still has a marriage contract with Gu Shun, when Zhang Yiwei successfully takes over the position of the prefect of Jiangnan City in the future, she Li can sit back and relax.
The next step is to wait for his son to become the head of the Zhang family.
can expel Zhang Yi'an and Zhang's mother, who are not even a chess piece, from the Zhang family. A servant who is not even a maid, only gave birth to a son by shit luck, and both mother and son are lowly goods, and they are not qualified to stay in the Zhang family at all.
I have to say that Li's trick is quite vicious and tricky, once it succeeds, even if it can't completely destroy the friendship between Gu Shun and Zhang Yi'an, it can make Gu Shun have more suspicion and suspicion towards him.
It's a pity that she didn't expect that this person who claimed to be Gu Shun's subordinate was actually Gu Shunli who used the disguise technique to pretend.
Gu Shunli used his mind reading technique to see what Pi Dan was thinking clearly, and he also understood Li's plan.
Zhang Peien calculated the Gu family's property and family business, and the Li family even calculated it on his head, Gu Shun sneered in his heart, and a plan appeared in his mind.
"My young master has ordered, these things must be sent to Zhang Gongzi, I must obey the young master's orders, it is impossible to hand over the things to others."
Pidan quibbled: "This distinguished guest, the young shopkeeper Gu ordered the things to be sent to the sixth young master, and you have not delivered them now, which can be regarded as completing the task assigned by the young shopkeeper." Now I just took the things from the sixth young master's hands, and we acted separately, which did not prevent you from carrying out the orders of the young master.
And the sixth young master should be very happy to hand over these things to his mother to dispose of. Speaking of which, there was already a hint of threat in Preserved Egg's words.
Although Zhang Yi'an didn't want to hand over the books that Gu Shun had prepared for him, once these books were taken away by the Li family, it was basically impossible to come back. But he glanced at his own mother, and nodded weakly and hatefully in his heart.
He hated himself for being too weak to keep the gift that Gu Shun gave him, he hated himself for being cowardly, and in order to live with his mother in the Zhang family, he chose to swallow his anger again and again and bow to the bully.
He has endured it long enough, but he has no martial arts, and second, he has no power, and he doesn't know how long he will have to endure it.
Even the friendship that he finally maintained with Gu Shun was based on deception and his father's plan.
bitterness, guilt, helplessness, self-pity...... Countless emotions are intertwined in Zhang Yi'an's young heart.
At this moment, he is not like a seven-year-old child, but like a penitent atonementer, who is completely shaken in compromise after bowing to fate again and again.
"Don't you think this is right, since the Sixth Young Master has agreed, I also ask this distinguished guest to hand over the gift that Gu Gongzi gave to the Sixth Young Master." Preserved eggs are domineering.
Gu Shun held down the burden on the table, "I see who dares, Young Master Zhang's things, no one can take them away today." In addition, I also want to ask you about this preserved egg, whether you sent someone to smash Young Master Zhang's home, and whether the gold that my young master gave to Zhang Gongzi was robbed by you. ”
"Give me some respect with your mouth, I am the most favored maid beside my wife, my status is noble, and I can call preserved eggs." The preserved egg was like eating gunpowder, and when I heard someone shouting this name, it exploded all at once.
"You, a descendant of the Gu family, what qualifications do you have to take care of my Zhang family's affairs, I really think it is my uncle's order, you can administer justice here, it's really a joke.
Besides, you see that this room is so neat, it looks like it has been smashed, you don't want to spew blood and filthy people's innocence. The preserved egg shook the horizontal flesh on his body, opened his eyes and said nonsense.
At the same time, she also asked the family members on the left and right very nervously, "Have you seen that I smashed it?"
Jia Ding hurriedly shook his head.
Then she asked another servant, "Have you seen me take the gold with your own eyes?" ”
Jia Ding hurriedly said, "I didn't see the little one." ”
"Look, it's not that no one saw it, how can you prove that I smashed it, you don't want to wronged a good person." Preserved Egg was arrogant and said very arrogantly, "As for the gold, I haven't seen it." ”
Although Pidan said this verbally, she had already betrayed it in her heart.
The ten taels of gold that Gu Shun gave to Zhang Yi'an were hidden by Zhang Yi'an in the depths of the cabinet containing clothes, but they were found when they were smashed and destroyed by the preserved egg belt.
Looking at the golden gold, Pidan did not make a sound, but handed over two of them to his subordinates as hush money, and the remaining eight were all his own.
What went into her pocket, I don't want her to spit it out easily.
