I used to blame the Wu brothers for their incompetence, but now I no longer care about whom to blame. How to overcome this difficulty is the top priority.
Only Shanshi still looked generous, and said disapprovingly: "We can't be made homeless, right? We just won't move out by then, so why don't you believe that we can be kicked out? After all, we are also the government's government, even if it is ruined,
That’s not something to be trifled with!”
Wu Yuanshuang sneered: "The Duke's Mansion? Not to mention that our family, as a merchant, received such a Duke's title as a reward from the late Emperor's good fortune. It was obtained by those Dukes who had fought through hundreds of battles and sacrificed their lives in exchange for their merits. What's more,
How many of them dare to act rogue in front of the Hejian County Prince?"
Shanshi's expression finally changed.
Yes, this money was borrowed from the Prince of Hejian County...
Li Xiaogong!
The most famous general in the clan, who dares to blackmail his money?
Shanshi said angrily: "In my opinion, that damn girl Mei Niang didn't have good intentions. Otherwise, why didn't she go to someone else's house to borrow money, but why did she go to the Prince of Hejian County?"
Wu Yuanshuang has nothing to do with this sister-in-law. Do you think anyone can get 300,000 yuan?
However, when Shanshi mentioned Wu Meiniang, his heart moved. He looked around and wondered: "Why don't you see the madam and the little sister?"
The lady he was talking about was Yang, the second wife of his father, the warrior Xun, and his younger sister was Xiu Niang, the youngest half-daughter of Yang, Mei Niang’s sister...
Shanshi blinked her eyes, slapped her thigh suddenly, and said: "How could you forget her? Her daughter is very popular now. Look how much money is made at the dock all day long. As long as she opens her mouth, let Mei Niang give it to us.
Isn’t it enough to pay for it? I’ll go find that old prostitute right away!”
After saying that, he ignored the Wu brothers' reaction, turned around and trotted out, twisting the water snake's waist.
The Wu brothers looked at each other, their faces gloomy and extremely ugly.
Even though the two brothers had humiliated Mrs. Yang and her three half-sisters in every possible way and wished they could drive them out of the house and leave them to fend for themselves, after all, she was also his father's real wife, but now Mr. Shan has insulted her as a "whore"...
…
Then who is their father, Samurai Yun?
It's just that Shanshi has always been domineering and aggressive, and the two brothers are also very troubled and don't want to provoke them. Moreover, Shanshi's words are not unreasonable. Mei Niang naturally didn't bother to pay attention to their brothers and didn't lend them a penny.
Borrowing money is already a huge shame.
But if Yang takes action...
Infinite hope suddenly rose in the hearts of the Wu brothers.
Even if Mei Niang is indifferent, she won't even listen to her mother's words, right?
As for letting Yang go out to find Mei Niang... the Wu brothers are full of confidence. Yang is a cowardly woman. Since the death of the warrior Xun, not only has she been bullied and mistreated by her two stepsons, but also the Shan family, the second wife of the Wu family.
The widow was able to ride on her head and dominate her, humiliating and scolding her at will, and even her three daughters had no status in the Wu family.
How could such a Yang family dare to refuse the words of the Wu family?
Not long after, footsteps came from the door, as well as Shan's cursing voice...
"My servant has spoken several times and clearly said that the whole family is discussing things together. Why are you still not coming, but you want me to go and invite you? Haha, maybe you think your daughter has been used as a concubine.
, now that you have support, you no longer regard yourself as a member of the Wu family? To tell you the truth, even if you die, you will have to die in the Wu family!"
Shan's shrill voice was extremely unpleasant, and his words were extremely vicious.
But there was no reply from Yang...
When Mrs. Shan entered the main hall arrogantly, Mrs. Yang walked in timidly.
Yang is not young, but her characteristic oval face has beautiful facial features, fair skin, and a slender figure. She still has charm. It can be seen that she was also a stunning beauty back then. Obviously, Wu Shunniang and Wu Meiniang both inherited their mother's good looks.
There was a girl beside her, about thirteen or fourteen years old, with a slender and thin figure, but she looked a little embarrassed. She took Yang's arm and followed her timidly, her delicate chin resting on her
I didn't dare to raise my head to see anyone, my pretty face was full of nervousness and fear...
Wu Yuanshuang glared at Mr. Shan, waved his hand and said: "We are all members of our own family, why do we need to speak so viciously? Madam, please take a seat quickly."
Yang glanced at the Wu brothers without saying a word, and led the girl to sit down on the lower left in a dull voice, but her heart was pounding. She didn't know how these two wolf-hearted bastards were going to torment her today...
Wu Yuanshuang took a look at Yang's lowered eyebrows and eyes, and suddenly became angry and looked down upon her more and more. But now that he had something to ask for, he could only hold it in.
"Ahem, so I can teach my mother that something big happened at home..."
Wu Yuanshuang was a good talker. He told the story about the collapse of the building on the construction site and even exaggerated the consequences several times. Then he stared at the Yang family and said: "The survival of the family now depends on the thought of King Wu. If we can't raise enough funds, we will
If those houses are demolished and rebuilt, I am afraid that in the anger of King Wu, my brothers will be sued... Now we are all desperate, only Mei Niang can help me, I hope my mother will take care of her at the same time.
For the sake of my family, I can go and talk to Mei Niang."
This was the first time the Wu brothers called "Mother" since the death of the warrior Xun. Instead of feeling any warmth and comfort, the Yang family was shocked and became more and more frightened...
How can any good thing come from being diligent for nothing?
Yang said: "It's not that I don't want to speak, Mei Niang is also a poor person. When is she not careful about being a concubine? Not to mention that Erlang's wife is a royal princess, I'm afraid Mei Niang will say something.
You have to think carefully...how can Mei Niang get such a large sum of money?"
Before she finished speaking, Mrs. Shan frowned and threw the tea cup in her hand. It fell on the ground in front of Ms. Yang and her daughter, and shattered with a "pop".
Mother and daughter Yang were so frightened that they both trembled and turned pale...
Shanshi pointed her halberd and cursed: "You are a sinister woman. You may sound so grand, but in fact you just don't want to find Mei Niang for your family? Hum, I can't believe that you are cursing all the Wu family members in your heart at this moment for being captured."
It’s best to go to jail, and then Nuo Da’s mansion will be assigned to you, right?”
Yang hurriedly said: "How can you have such intention? It's really Mei Niang who is in trouble, how can a mother go and force her?"
Shanshi became more and more angry: "Okay, if you say this, don't you blame us for forcing you? But since you eat and live in the family, you shouldn't bear the responsibility for the family's troubles?"
Yang couldn't help her, so she just lowered her head and said nothing, holding her little daughter's trembling hands tightly, pursed her lips and said nothing.
The Wu brothers watched Shan's rage, but said nothing, let alone stopped him.
In her heart, she hopes that the Shan family can force the Yang family to compromise, but she also secretly laughs at the Shan family for being confused. Mei Niang is no longer what she used to be. Although she is a concubine, she is in charge of the Fangjiawan Pier, which is second only to iron smelting in the Fang family's industry.
, do you think you are still the yellow-haired girl who beat and scolded you at will?
With the resources that Mei Niang currently has at her disposal, if she wants to embarrass the Wu family, she doesn’t even need to encourage Fang Jun to take action. She can use countless means to force the Wu family into a desperate situation anytime and anywhere...
It was just that Mrs. Shan lost her temper and said a lot of unpleasant words, but Mr. Yang remained silent and kept her mouth shut. This made the Wu brothers secretly anxious.
Wu Yuanshuang was very arrogant, rolled his eyes, and said: "Since mother doesn't want to, let's not mention it for the time being. It's just that the embroiderer is not young, and she will have hairpins during the Chinese New Year. The affair with the Guo family of Yangzhai
Should marriage matters also be discussed?"
Mentioning Xiu Niang's marriage, Shanshi suddenly felt blessed and exclaimed: "What a damn marriage, your family is about to be sued and imprisoned. How can you still think about it?"
Upon hearing this, Xiu Niang tightened her mother's hand, her beautiful eyes filled with moisture, she pursed her lips in grievance, but did not dare to speak.
Yang said angrily: "Even if there is an accident in the family, how can it delay the marriage of the child? Guo Xiaoshen's father is sick and will pass away soon. If he cannot get married before then, he will have to observe mourning for three years in the event of a funeral.
Wouldn’t it have delayed the embroiderer for several years?”
Mr. Shan rolled his eyes and said casually: "Who can take care of so much? Since they are children of the Wu family, they should make contributions when the family is in difficulty. In my opinion, it would be better to reject the Yangzhai Guo family.
Our embroiderer is so beautiful, but there are not many beauties in Chang'an. Why don't you let the word out and let the bride be betrothed to whose family the gift is high? Firstly, you can find a good family for your embroiderer, and secondly,
