Chapter 21: Persuade Your Father
A few days later, in Uncle Guo's mansion, the eldest grandson Wuji jumped like thunder, "Is Xiao Yu's old thing crazy?" For no reason, he actually launched the entire Lanling Xiao clan to start a war against my family? Why? Why exactly? ”
The housekeeper whispered: "The old slave asked someone privately, it seems that it was because of the matter of the son last time." ”
What??? Last time? We have already lost money last time, and he still holds on to it? When my eldest grandson, Wuji, is it easy to bully?
After the anger, the eldest grandson Wuji entered the palace in a carriage.
At noon, Princess Xiangcheng took her sister out of the palace and came to Xiaojiazhuang. Just in time for Xiao Rui's family to eat, Xiao Changle rushed to the dinner table like a self-cooked.
Xiangcheng was very embarrassed to walk by Xiao Rui Lake. Xiao Rui also wondered why the two who were engaged couldn't meet in advance according to the rules, why did the meal come? Something must be wrong.
"Xiao, cough cough, Brother Rui, can you persuade Ling Zun to stop getting along with the eldest grandson's family?"
Burst...... Brother Rui? This voice is so sweet.
Xiao Rui was almost resisted, but he froze, and then he reacted, "With the eldest grandson's family?" Did something happen? ”
Xiangcheng told the matter again, and Xiao Rui was also confused, "My father is at war with the eldest grandson's family?" I haven't heard of it, because what? ”
"It seems that it's because of the last time Changsun Chong sneaked up on you."
No way? Everyone has lost money, and Daddy is still holding on to it? Xiao Rui couldn't believe it, but when he calmed down, he remembered that he didn't seem to have told his father that the 10,000 taels were secretly spent by him.
It's over, it's over, shouldn't there be a misunderstanding?
Xiao Rui left the princess alone by the lake, rushed home in a hurry, and called out the housekeeper Xiao Hu.
"What? His eldest grandson is so bold, dare to be right with the master? Young master, don't worry, according to your orders, I have already arranged to go down and attack the master. At this time, we must not let the eldest grandson's family come out to share the results of the war, I will send someone to add heat to ensure that we will win all the industries of our family before the eldest grandson's family profits! Xiao Hu patted his chest and promised.
What the hell am I ......
Xiao Rui was so angry that he kicked Xiao Hu over, and pounced on it to make an old fist.
Rubbish! Waste, what do you want? When is it, the old man is desperate with people in front of me, stand up for me, you don't help? Why do you stab you in the back? I'll kill you!
"Don't fight, don't hit the young master, I was wrong, I really know it's wrong......"
This scene made Xiao Hu stupid, and he also looked at the princess of Xiangcheng by the lake. Listening to Xiao Rui's words, the princess was stunned, my father asked me to come over to persuade me, listening to this tone, it seems that Xiao Rui wants to join the war? Help deal with the eldest grandson's family?
When Xiao Hu fled in embarrassment, Xiangcheng was bold, tentatively walked to Xiao Rui's side, and whispered: "Brother Rui, can you not get along with the eldest grandson's family?" Both of you are the pillars of the imperial court, and it is difficult for your father to be sandwiched in the middle. ”
"Oh...... It's okay, it's okay, don't worry, I'll go back to Chang'an with you in the afternoon. When I ask my dad what is going on, if I can mediate, I will definitely persuade him. ”
Xiao Rui didn't say anything to death, but temporarily coaxed Xiangcheng, hating the housekeeper Xiao Hu in his heart, this waste, let you be in charge of Zhuangzi's business, there is such a big thing in the family, you don't know anything about it? What do you want?
In the afternoon, Xiao Rui returned to the Song State Mansion, Xiao Yuzheng was listening to his subordinates read the battle results, how many shops had been closed by the eldest grandson's family today......
"Yes, that's it! Don't look at his eldest grandson Wuji in charge of the salt and iron trade of the imperial court, but after all, it is an official thing, not his private property, in terms of real strength, his eldest grandson's family can't! Xiao Yu was very satisfied.
"Daddy, I'm back."
"Oh? Da Lang is back? Okay, you go down first, I have something to talk about with the young master. Waving away the account room, Xiao Yu signaled his son not to be restrained and sat down on the side. Then he began to talk about his achievements.
When Daddy was almost dazzling, he stopped drinking water, Xiao Rui spoke, "Dad, I just heard about this big event, what is the reason why you want to start a war against the eldest grandson's family?" If it's because of what happened to Changsun Chong last time, it's not necessary, the child has already taught that kid a hard lesson. ”
Xiao Yu sneered: "That's just one of them!" Dalang, you don't know, a few days ago, the eldest grandson's family was rude, and he secretly suppressed and squeezed our Xiao family's industry. Hum! My son is not well educated, and he doesn't think about introspection, what's the matter? Is he secretly using means to help his son avenge himself? When I made the Xiao family's mud? His eldest grandson made the first move, so don't blame me for returning a tooth for a tooth. ”
What??? How dare they retaliate afterwards? If so? Xiao Rui was furious and stood up.
Xiao Yu motioned to his son to be calm, sit down and be restless, there is a father, and he is not afraid of his eldest grandson.
"The eldest grandson Wuji, a good hand at playing conspiracy and tricks, naturally didn't let us catch the evidence. But our people tracked and learned that the people behind the bad were the people in the shops in his West Market, especially the restaurant that has been very popular recently, hum, that is the property of the eldest grandson's family, everyone knows it! Can't be wrong. ”
Oh...... In that case, it's a real hammer...... Wait, where? How many shops are there in the West Market? The hottest restaurant?
Xiao Rui was stunned for a moment, and recalled what he said when the account office of the eldest grandson's family went to deliver the goods, the only few shops of the eldest grandson's family in the West Market were all given to you......
The hottest restaurant, isn't that the one I reopened after I took over?
If this is the case, then the first to ignite the fire is not the eldest grandson's family, but ...... Yes, it's me? No, it's Xiao Hu's soul!
"Ahem, Dad, I came back this time to persuade you that it is better to settle the grievances than to settle them...... If the two of us continue to fight like this, it will be difficult for Your Majesty to do it......"
Xiao Yu said: "Hmph! His eldest grandson Wuji relied on his identity as his uncle, and usually boasted that he was the first hero of the dragon, arrogant and domineering, but this time he was caught by me, how could he not let him learn a lesson? ”
This one...... Xiao Rui whispered: "Actually, you misunderstood, the shops of the West Mayor Sun's family are no longer the property of the eldest grandson's family, but were acquired by me......"
"Don't talk nonsense, just you kid? I asked Xiao Hu earlier, your Xiao Jiazhuang is only a few hundred taels of silver up and down. ”
"Really, look, this is the deed ......" Xiao Rui reached into his arms and took out the deed of those stores from the ring.
Xiao Yu stared at it for a long time, and finally came back to his senses and muttered, "So, is it really your store?" But why? Did I investigate wrong? You don't have a reason to make a move on the property of our Song State Mansion, right? ”
How does Xiao Rui explain? I couldn't explain it, so I could only bite the bullet and say: "Misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding, it's Xiao Hu's mistake, I'll arrest him......"
After saying that, he ran out in a puff of smoke, Xiao Yu stood on the spot, thought for a long time, and finally reacted, pointed to the direction where Xiao Rui left, and scolded: "Wow, it turned out to be you bastard, what Xiao Hu?" Give him ten dares, and he will not dare to do it privately. It's clear that you want to swallow Lao Tzu's industry...... How did I raise such an unfilial white-eyed wolf as you......"
