Chapter 134: Two Ribs Inserted into the Knife
Shaw House.
Two-bedroom main hall.
"Now that the Hou Ye has spoken, give him a few shops, the Xiao family's shops are all over the world, and a few shops can still be handled, the last time the Hou Ye came to the door in a hurry, this time it should be a meeting gift for the Hou Ye."
Yun Baining smiled and said calmly, inside and outside the words, the meaning was obvious, although he agreed to hand over a few shops, but it was not for Xiao Hongxing is Xiao family, but it was all about Li Wuji's face.
"Okay."
"Don't thank you Mrs. Yun yet?"
Li Wuji nodded and chuckled, turned his head to look at Xiao Hongxing and said.
"Thank you, master!"
Xiao Hongxing hurriedly agreed, respectfully bowed to Yun Baining, and said gratefully.
"Hongxing, since your relationship with Hou Ye is so close, why didn't you explain it to me before? I knew this, so why did I need Hou Ye to come to the door in person today. ”
Yun Baining nodded, looked at Xiao Hongxing, and said with a little reproach.
After Xiao Hongxing listened, he was speechless for a while, although Li Wuji once said that he regarded him as a friend, he didn't dare to climb high, let alone use Li Wuji's prestige to win anything.
What's more, the fact that he met Li Wuji and participated in the opening ceremony of Deyun Xuan is not a secret in the Xiao Mansion.
"It's okay, it's not too late to know."
"Since that's the point, I'll mention it one more thing."
"Ben Hou doesn't care what status Xiao Hongxing's mother and son had in the Xiao Mansion before, but since he is now my person, from now on, please ask the Xiao family to respect him, and insulting him is insulting me!"
Li Wuji waved his hand, his face sank, his eyes swept over the faces of Yun Baining's mother and daughter, and said lightly.
"Master Hou said that he laughed, Hongxing and we are all family, how can you bully him?"
Yun Baining smiled and said slowly.
"Didn't you? I also saw him once a few days ago, and I saw that his eyes were purple, and I heard that he was injured by someone in the house, Mrs. Yun didn't know about it? ”
As soon as Yun Baining's words fell, Li Wuji asked with a sneer, revealing a face full of surprise.
After hearing this, the first thing that changed his face was Xiao Wenqi, who had been sitting beside Yun Baining for a long time without saying a word, and was as docile as a puppy.
"Is there one?"
Yun Baining hesitated for a moment, turned his head to look at Xiao Hongxing, and squeezed out a trace of an embarrassed smile.
"Yes, I heard that he is the housekeeper in the courtyard of the big house."
"Zhu Gongzi should be able to testify about this, right?"
Li Wuji said without thinking, and at the same time turned his head to look at Zhu Hexuan.
"It can be proved below."
Zhu Hexuan was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Li Wuji to suddenly ask him a question, and hurriedly arched his hand and said.
After listening to Zhu Hexuan's answer, Li Wuji looked at Yun Baining again with a smile on his face, and didn't say anything more, just looked at Yun Baining directly.
"Come on, let Steward Wu come to see me!"
Yun Bai condensed his face, turned his head sideways and said a deep word outside the door, and finally did not forget to glare at Xiao Duqiu beside him.
Someone outside the door immediately said yes and left quickly.
"Whether this happens or not, this is the Xiao family's family matter, he is an outsider, what qualifications does he have to meddle?!"
Xiao Duqiu stood up with a dissatisfied face, pointed at Li Wuji, and said unwillingly.
"Presumptuous!"
Seeing this, Yun Bai Ning shouted sharply, his face full of seriousness.
"Mother?!"
Xiao Duqiu looked at Yun Baining aggrievedly, her face full of unconvinced.
Yun Baining didn't speak, but just glared at her daughter, signaling not to make a big deal out of it.
She had already seen that Anhou came to the door today to support Xiao Hongxing, and it was useless to say more, it would only increase the contradictions.
Xiao Duqiu gritted her teeth, glanced at Li Wuji, and sat down again in a huff.
It was originally a good birthday banquet, but at this time, it has become a farce of Xiao Hongxing seeking justice.
Soon, Wu Qian, the housekeeper of the big house, hurried over, quickly walked into the main hall, and saluted everyone present, including Xiao Hongxing who didn't even look at Xiao Hongxing on weekdays.
On the way here just now, the people in the house had already told Wu Qian everything that happened here.
Although he is the housekeeper of the big house, he is actually the housekeeper of the entire Xiao Mansion.
"Steward Wu, I heard that you beat Hongxing a few days ago?!"
Yun Baining turned to look at Wu Qian and asked in a deep voice.
“... Yes..."
Wu Qian swallowed his saliva, looked up at Xiao Wenqi and Xiao Duqiu, and nodded hesitantly.
In fact, this matter is not a secret at all in the Xiao Mansion, Xiao Wenqi and Xiao Duqiu saw it with their own eyes at that time, and even Yun Baining had already heard about it, so Wu Qian knew very well in his heart that he couldn't hide today.
"Presumptuous!"
"Who taught you to be so masterless?! Hongxing is the son of the second room, he is your master, how can he do it to his master?! ”
Yun Bai asked loudly with a calm face.
"If I go home, no one will teach me, it is the old slave himself who has a dispute with the second son, and he moved on impulse, the old slave knows his mistake, please punish the master of the house!"
Wu Qian knelt on the ground and said with a face full of self-reproach.
"Someone! Drag him down, and the rod will be twenty! ”
Yun Bai condensed his face and shouted sharply.
As soon as the words fell, several subordinates walked in quickly, and directly pulled Wu Qian out.
"Don't work so hard, just here, Ben Hou is idle, just watch it, and see the Xiao family's family law."
Li Wuji suddenly raised his hand to stop it, and said with interest.
Several subordinates were stunned, at a loss, and turned their heads to look at Yun Baining.
"Didn't you hear what Hou Ye said? What are you doing in a daze?! ”
Yun Bai frowned, his face was gloomy, and he ordered impatiently.
Several subordinates agreed, let go of Wu Qian, and soon took the torture rod to enforce the family law, and began to execute it directly in front of everyone.
"Ahh
As the torture rod was waved down again and again, Wu Qian screamed in pain, each time he became more and more painful, his face turned red, and beads of sweat the size of beans kept dripping from his forehead.
Before he reached the twentieth time, Wu Qian had already fainted, and was finally dragged out of the main hall by several subordinates like a dead dog.
"Hou Ye can be angry?"
With a stiff smile, Yun Baining turned her head to look at Li Wuji and asked slowly.
"Deflated?"
But Li Wuji didn't answer directly, but turned his head to look at Xiao Hongxing and asked with a smile.
Xiao Hongxing nodded hurriedly, a little at a loss, no matter what, he couldn't imagine that this was the situation today.
"That's it."
Li Wuji nodded, turned his head and showed a modest smile at Yun Baining, which was in stark contrast to Yun Baining's smile.
"Okay."
"I'm suddenly feeling a little unwell, so I won't disturb your meal, just go first."
Yun Bai Ning bowed, got up slowly, and said apologetically.
"I haven't eaten any food, so don't you sit for a while?"
Li Wuji looked at Yun Baining in surprise, and deliberately pretended to be unclear and asked.
"Master Hou is slow to use, and he is out of company."
Yun Baining shook his head, and after speaking, he turned around and walked out directly.
Seeing that Yun Baining had already left, Xiao Duqiu also stood up, glared at Xiao Hongxing through gritted teeth, and left quickly.
Xiao Wenqi was the last to go, and before leaving, he deeply forgot about Li Wuji, and a trace of gratitude seemed to flash in the depths of his eyes.
As all the people in the big room left, the hall suddenly became a lot quieter, and only the three of them were left.
"It's a great delight! Brother Xiao, after being oppressed for so many years, you finally have a bad breath today! ”
Zhu Hexuan patted Xiao Hongxing and said with some excitement, looking at Li Wuji's eyes full of reverence.
"Thanks to Childe today."
Xiao Hongxing turned around and bowed respectfully to Li Wuji, and said gratefully, but there was a hint of worry between his eyebrows.
"Don't worry, they won't dare to blatantly bully you in the future, today I can be regarded as a salute before a soldier, if they dare to embarrass your mother and son in the future, just tell me, I will not sit idly by."
Li Wuji looked at Xiao Hongxing and said seriously.
"Thank you, Childe."
Xiao Hongxing was grateful in his heart, got up and knelt directly in front of Li Wuji, a little emotional.
"Between you and me, there is no need to say thank you."
"Since they are friends, they should have stuck a knife in both sides."
Li Wuji hurriedly stretched out his hand to help Xiao Hongxing up, and said seriously.
Immediately afterwards, the three of them diverted the topic, talking and laughing, and moved their chopsticks.
Although the dishes are a little cold, the three of them still eat with relish, and there is no shelf from Wuji, they talk and laugh with the two, and they deliberately get closer to Zhu Hexuan many times.
For Zhu Wenqing, who sent the Northern Barbarian Mei woman into the palace back then, he did not choose to kill him directly, but just sent someone to spy on him, planning to use it for himself one day...
