Chapter 55: Catching the Adulterer Fails
"What? how dare she?" You Shi listened to the little girl Hexiang's report, and her eyebrows twisted into a Sichuan character.
"It's true, my aunt didn't see it, the third lady and a man were doing things in the store. And after a while, another man came, and the third lady was pulling and pulling with him at the door of the store, which was really unusual. I heard from the guy at the teahouse across the street that those two men had come more than once. Hexiang pouted: "I heard that there is still something about Boss Zhao here, on the day of the opening of the third miss, he gave a large string of Dongzhu, if he doesn't have that kind of relationship with the third miss, why send such a valuable thing?"
Yuan Jia was worried that he couldn't find Wei Yuanxi's handle, but he didn't expect that there would be three people. If such a chaotic relationship is told to the clan elder, even the old lady will not have the face to protect her anymore.
Yuan Jia smiled: "What's the matter, Boss Zhao is so old, the third sister can also look at it?"
Mother Zhao pursed her lips, and when she remembered that Yuanxi had designed to beat her dozens of boards, she hated in her heart, and sneered: "It's just that you're old, and you can only make a generous shot!" That Wei Yuanxi is young, and his body is when he is tender. Speaking of which, Boss Zhao still earned it. ”
Yuan Jia sat next to You Shi: "Mother, what do you say?"
You Shi glanced at Zhao's mother: "If you talk about Wei Yuanxi and Boss Zhao, I really don't believe it, and the clan elder may not believe it." But if Wei Yuanxi and those two young offspring are not innocent, it is very possible. ”
You Shi turned his head and asked Hexiang, "If we go here, is it still too late?"
Hexiang scratched her head: "Auntie wants to catch the rapist in bed? ”
You Shi stood up suddenly, with a sly smile on his face: "Just grab one, go, and follow me to see the clan grow old." ”
The old man of the clan was not in good spirits, he hid in the house and refused to go out, and after listening to You Shi's words, he jumped up and broke out of the door trembling and crooked. Seeing this, You Shi hurriedly called the little guy in the old courtyard of the Shang clan, and hurriedly followed.
Although the clan elder is old, his legs and feet are very neat, and when he arrived at Xiyin Hall, it was only the time for a meal. The patriarch lifted the sedan curtain and heard Yuan Xi in the store shouting "send off guests".
The clan elder sneered and said loudly: "I'm only sending off guests now, I'm afraid it's too late, right?"
Yuan Xiden was stunned.
Xiao Rongzhan was also taken aback, turned his head to look, the door curtain was lifted, and a thin old man with gray hair, a rickety figure, and a cane came in. This old man was full of arrogance, and at first glance he knew that he was a stubborn and stubborn person.
Yuan Xi saw that the You clan also followed into the door, and knew that the clan elder had bad intentions. Yuan Xi said with a smile: "Why did the old grandfather of the clan have time to come to his niece and granddaughter today?"
The clan elder didn't see outside, so he sat in Xiao Rongzhan's seat and poured the tea that Xiao Rongzhan drank: "When I see you, Aunt You is like I haven't seen you, she is your elder anyway, how do you respect your elders?"
The old clan saying raised the status of the You family very highly, and it sounded like the lady of the main house of the Wei Mansion. Yuan Xi felt a burst of disgust in his heart, according to the official rank, I am the county lord, she is a commoner, according to the rules, I am a young lady, and she is an aunt. I am the master, she is the subordinate, I respect her and humble, when will the master salute the subordinate?
Xiao Rongzhan stood still, but the clan elder took the lead in looking at him: "Which noble son is this?"
Xiao Rongzhan put his hands behind his back and looked at the clan elder without speaking.
His domineering attitude made the clan elder a little unable to get off the stage, and the clan elder sneered twice: "Although our Wei family is not a famous family, but now it is also the imperial merchant of the inner government, and your Wei Yuanxi has just been named the county lord, and you should not embarrass the court in your actions." ”
Yuan Xi snorted lightly, whether it is the imperial merchant or the county lord, he has nothing to do with the clan elder, he has not contributed to these two honors, but now he is showing off his power here? Yuan Xi looked at the clan elder lightly and did not answer his words.
Xiao Rongzhan smiled, and the laughing clan elder was very embarrassed. The patriarch raised his crutches: "What are you laughing at?"
Xiao Rongzhan stopped laughing: "If I'm not mistaken, Your Excellency should be a white body, right?"
"So what?" The clan elder was a little embarrassed, deliberately avoiding Xiao Rongzhan's harsh gaze.
"Isn't it ridiculous that you, a concubine without a title, dare to accuse the dignified Emperor Chu of being the lord of Donglin County?"
The patriarch's face changed suddenly, and he knocked on his crutches vigorously: "You are bold! Who dare you to pretend here? When will it be your turn for an outsider to intervene in the affairs of my Wei family? You two dare to be so rampant when you two do such an insulting thing to your ancestors?"
Xiao Rongzhan lowered his face coldly: "Seeing that you are old, I don't want to worry about you, you must be measured when you speak, what is it called insulting your ancestors?"
You Shi gave He Xiang a look, He Xiang pursed her lips, plucked up the courage to point to Xiao Rongzhan's face and scolded: "Clan Elder, it's this little white face, I just watched it outside, he hugged and kissed the third lady in the lobby." We came late, and there was another little white face who ran away early, just now the slave maid saw the third lady and the other pulling and pulling at the door, which really lost the face of our Wei family. ”
"Hexiang, you bastard!" Yuan Xi pulled Hexiang and shook his hand was a slap.
There was a crisp sound, and Aunt You's heart trembled. He Xiang staggered a few steps, covering her red, swollen and painful face: "Clan Elder, you have seen it, the third young lady, she is so angry that she dares to beat people in front of you, and she can't even care about the rules of our Wei family that you don't hit your face!"
Aunt You saw that Yuan Xi was annoyed, so she pretended to be a good person, and smiled at Xiao Rongzhan: "This son, I don't know which young master you are, but you see, since you have cooked rice with the three girls of our family......"
"Aunt You, why is it that the raw rice is cooked and cooked?" Yuan Xi interrupted You Shi sharply: "I warned my aunt before, you can't believe what you say about chasing the wind and shadows, don't be too soft in your ears, you don't believe me, a big living person, standing in front of you, Hexiang makes up a few gossips, and you believe it?"
You Shi held Yuan Xi and said softly: "Third Miss, my aunt doesn't doubt your character. My aunt is worried about your future, today the news of you and this son will be spread, your reputation will be gone, let's not take this opportunity to quickly make peace with his family, even if you can't be a wife, it's better to be a concubine? ”
You Shi shook off Yuan Xi and went to Xiao Rongzhan again: "This son, since you have a friendship with the three girls of my family, why don't you meet the two elders?"
"What are you doing?" Xiao Rongzhan glanced at You Shi awe-inspiringly.
"Of course, it is to choose a good day and an auspicious day to do your good deeds. "You really looks like a good person when he laughs.
In fact, You Shi had another calculation in his heart. The only nominal heir to the Wei Mansion is Wei Yuanxi. But if Wei Yuanxi marries an ordinary family early, there will be no chance to take over a lot of the Wei family's industry. When the time comes, I will design to be Cheng Yong, a weak scholar, isn't the Wei family his own children?
Yuan Xi's heart beat wildly, Xiao Rongzhan's identity is special, if he doesn't want to say it, it will be difficult for him to expose it. But if he takes this opportunity to collude with Aunt You and really chooses any good days and auspicious days, he will no longer have the power to return to heaven.
Xiao Rongzhan sighed and said indifferently: "However, my family's rules are big, I don't know if you can stand it." ”
Aunt You looked at the clan elder and said with a smile: "What's this? The rules are very good, and the rules are so good that they are a good family." ”
"When you see my parents, kneel to them, and when you reply to my parents, keep your heads down, and don't look them in the eye. ”
If you don't want to marry a girl from my Wei family, why do you want to do those ugly things with her in public?" The clan elder stood up, stepped in front of Xiao Rongzhan in a few steps, and stared at him deadly: "You, your parents taught you really well, you want to leave after eating and wiping it clean!"
Yuan Xi frowned, what does it mean to eat dry and wipe clean, when did he do ugly things with Xiao Rongzhan? Yuan Xi looked at Hexiang hatefully, this rotten dead girl actually looked at herself with a smug face, completely 'what can you do with me'.
Xiao Rongzhan's face was not a little wavering, and he stroked his palms and smiled: "I don't know what I did with the third lady of your family, so I provoked you to be so indignant." What raw rice is cooked and ripe rice is eaten, and what is eaten and wiped clean? I'm young, and I don't know what it means. It's just that you are the first person in this world who dares to say that this king's family education is not good. ”
Xiao Rongzhan's face changed abruptly, and he slightly lifted the purse, jade pendant and other things that fell from his belt, revealing a token of Duanwang's mansion.
The old man of the Duan Wangfu clan was shocked, and the word "Duan" in the seal script on the token seemed to be a stick on the head, which scared the old man so much that his knees were weak and he was almost planted on the ground. You Shi was also a little at a loss for a while, and looked at Xiao Rongzhan in a daze: "Lord Duan?"
Xiao Rongzhan slowly paced in front of Hexiang and looked at her intently: "You still dare to make a rumor about this king." ”
Hexiang's whole body was soft, and it spread on the ground like mud.
As soon as Xiao Rongzhan sat down, the clan elder and Aunt You knelt in front of him with their hands and feet, and they didn't dare to raise their heads.
"The other little white face you just mentioned is the younger brother of this king, the sixth prince Baojun Wang. Xiao Rongzhan leaned on the back of the chair and stared at the lotus fragrance: "You are not small, you are two county kings in one arrangement." ”
Hexiang couldn't listen to anything anymore, so she just knelt on the ground and kowtowed, and refused to stop kowtowing when her head broke and bleed.
Xiao Rongzhan looked at the clan elder indifferently: "You are old, and your vision is also high. You said that the emperor and queen didn't teach this king well, why do you want to discipline this king for them?"
"The slave doesn't dare, the slave is speechless, Lord Wang, you have a lot of them, just treat us as a fart, let it go!"
It was also the first time that Yuan Xi heard the clan elder say such a word to ask his grandfather to tell his grandmother, but he didn't expect that the usually majestic clan elder would also lose his soul when he was afraid. Won-hee pursed his lips and forced a smile.
"You are also worthy to be the king's servant?"
Xiao Rongzhan woke up the clan elder with a word, and the clan elder hurriedly changed his words: "The untouchables know that they are wrong, and the untouchables don't dare anymore!"
Yuan Xi looked at the back of the clan elders together, and he was very relieved. is not respectful for the old, unkind for the rich, and even the grass people are not worthy of being called, they should be untouchables!
Xiao Rongzhan said coldly: "It's really a disappointment, this king and the king of Baojun originally came to say hello to the lord of Donglin County, but I never expected to meet you dirty cats." ”
