Chapter 26: Does the Imperial Court Know You Have So Many Fortunes?
Yu Jinxi looked at it coldly, without saying a word, how could Gu Qiheng really let his own mother bump into her, and hurriedly grabbed her.
Seeing this, the old lady cried even more fiercely, "What evil have I done?" When I'm old, I have to be angry with my daughter-in-law and ask my daughter-in-law to slap me in the face like this... Old man, take me away, I'm alive and angry, and I'll be bullied to death..."
"Mother, it's all the son who is not good, it's the son who is incompetent, and you are wronged."
Gu Qiheng persuaded, and kept glancing at Yu Jinxi, "Jinxi, come and apologize to your mother, saying that you were wrong..."
Yu Jinxi laughed angrily.
What's wrong with her? Why admit mistakes?
Just because she was not allowed to sell the dowry, she was wrong?
Just because she is Gu Qiheng's mother, she occupies the word "elder", no matter how brazen she is, it doesn't matter?
How can there be such a truth in the world?
"I'm not wrong, if you think I'm wrong, let someone else judge and see who is wrong?"
Yu Jinxi straightened his waist, not convinced at all.
"You..."
Gu Qiheng wanted to scold, but he stopped abruptly halfway through his words, and immediately changed his heartache look, "Jinxi, I misjudged you, why have you become such a shrew now?" ”
Yu Jinxi looked at him coldly, she didn't want to say a word at this time, she was afraid that she couldn't help but be angry, and wanted to rush up and give him two big slaps.
"Yu Jinxi, you really want to force my Gu family to go down and die!"
The old lady pointed at Yu Jinxi and yelled like a mournful, "Okay, I'm going to die, I'll die for you..."
Saying that, the old lady was about to hit the wall again, Yu Jinxi calculated that the time was almost up, and immediately knelt on the ground, covered her face with a handkerchief and cried, "I don't know what sin I have done, I want to be forced by your family like this..."
"Okay, if you want to sell my mother's things, then sell them all, if the money is not enough, even I will sell them, and everyone will be clean."
When the old lady heard this, she was instantly overjoyed.
She thought that Yu Jinxi had finally softened, and she didn't want to seek death at the moment, wiped her face, and pretended to be generous and said to Yu Jinxi, "Okay, okay, isn't it just selling you two things, what are you crying about?" You are the daughter-in-law of the Gu family, what are you selling for? ”
As soon as the words fell, Zhang Suying's angry voice sounded, "You pious woman is so angry, and you want to sell Sister Yu, you are not afraid that the Yu family will come to the door and send your pious woman to the court to ask for guilt." ”
When the old lady heard this, she raised her eyebrows and said loudly, "Who is talking?" My son is an official of the imperial court, and the family affairs of the imperial court official can also be mixed with outsiders? ”
Gu Qiheng also looked towards the source of the sound, he didn't know if he didn't see it, and he was startled when he saw it.
There were a lot of people in the house, led by the banquet next door, followed by a beautiful girl, and behind him was a large group of people holding white slips to ask for accounts.
Qing Ti rushed to Yu Jinxi's side with an arrow step, helped her and began to cry, "Miss, why are you sitting on the ground?" Did the old lady and the adults beat you? ”
"Who hit her? She sat on the ground by herself. Gu Qiheng was so anxious that he almost didn't jump up to explain.
"You all stand well, Sister Biyu is sitting on the ground crying, you must have bullied her."
Zhang Suying also walked to Yu Jinxi's side and helped her up.
"The king of this county didn't know that Lord Gu, the court official, still had a habit of buying and selling his wife, and he didn't know that you, the court official, were so shameless and connived at his wife to rob his relatives of the dowry."
Yan Huai stood there, with a long body, but he was cold, and his handsome eyebrows and eyes were fierce.
With only two sentences, Gu Qiheng was speechless.
Seeing that her son's face was pale and he had lost the upper hand, the old lady immediately shouted, "What if you are the king of the county?" This is my Gu family's family matter, what does it have to do with you? ”
"Who said that our Gu family bought and sold daughters-in-law? What evidence do you have? Depending on who you are, you will frame the court officials, but you will have to eat the lawsuit. ”
Seeing that the old lady was getting more and more unseemly, Gu Qiheng hurriedly pulled her, "Mother...... Don't say it..."
"What a court official!"
Yan Huai snorted coldly, "Not to mention that I still have some friendship with the Yu family, even if it doesn't matter, the court officials are not upright and do not erect family guidelines, and they are not worthy of being officials." Besides, the in-laws of the Gu Yu family are still married by the emperor himself, and the Yu family is the emperor's own imperial businessman. ”
The big hat was buttoned down, Gu Qiheng's body trembled, and the old lady's face turned pale.
Qingti immediately cried and complained, "Our young lady is pitiful, all the expenses of the Gu family are maintained by the young lady, how long has it been since we got married?" The dowry has been compensated, and if Lord Gu doesn't give it to my young lady, I have to pay off the debt if I lose the silver.
The shop is sold to pay off the debt, and the old lady wants to force my young lady to sell the gold, silver and jade specially made by the Yu family to the young lady when she got married, that is the face of the Yu family, their family is a black-hearted thing, not to mention the face of the Yu family to the ground and step on it, not to mention it, now it is even more terrible, and we have to sell our young lady to pay off the debt......"
"You, what are you talking nonsense about? Believe it or not, I tore your mouth! ”
The old lady was furious and tore to fight Qingti, but was blocked by Qingfeng beside Yanhuai.
"His Royal Highness the King of the County is here, who dares to be presumptuous?"
Qingfeng held a knife in his hand, which frightened the old lady and almost fell to the ground.
Gu Qiheng dragged the old lady to death, without saying a word.
"You... You're powerful with a knife, this is talking nonsense there, why don't you care? ”
"I'm not talking nonsense!"
Qingti said loudly, "When my young lady married into the Gu family, the Yu family not only gave tens of thousands of taels of silver, but also gave several dowry shops, not to mention the Liangtian Zhuangzi in the suburbs, if it wasn't for you, where did my young lady's silver and Zhuangzi go?" Say, do you give me a name? ”
The old lady was pointed, and she definitely didn't have a name, but the daily shark fin bird's nest, the delicacies of the mountains and seas, and the silk and satin on her body were not missing.
Zhang Suying glanced at her and sneered, "No wonder, Lord Gu was born poor, but the old lady was gorgeously dressed and dressed a lot, so it turned out that she came here like this." ”
"What nonsense are you talking about? These are all given to me by my son, what does it have to do with Yu Jinxi? Her money is gone, maybe it was stolen by her maid-in-law, the store is not running well, and she loses..."
Yan Huai looked at Gu Qiheng coldly, "Lord Gu, what your old lady said is true?" ”
Gu Qiheng was suddenly named, and the cold sweat on his forehead came down instantly.
He didn't take it, and he didn't answer it.
He didn't speak, but Yan Huai didn't intend to let him go, and said sharply, "If what Qing Ti said is not right, then check the shop and see how much the account book has lost over the years, if the old lady is right, then Lord Gu, you have a lot of money, does the court know that you have such a money?" ”
