It is said that Guo Yuqi was driven back to the Guo Mansion by Ji Dongming. When she returned to the Guo Mansion with a bruised nose and face, her two elders were horrified.
Later, when Guo Yuqi told the reason, the two elders became silent.
Mr. Guo immediately stated that he did not care about this matter and that it would be up to Guo Yuqi and Guo Lide to resolve it themselves.
The old lady of the Guo family also ignored it. There was no other reason. This Guo Yuqi was the daughter of a concubine. The daughter who was originally married was just thrown away. If Ji Dongming hadn't been promoted from a young imperial doctor to the current imperial court judge, they wouldn't have been able to do it.
I will let this concubine return home.
Late that night, Guo Lide asked his servants to summon him back to his house.
As soon as Guo Lide entered the door, he saw Guo Yuqi, "Yuqi? Why are you here? If you don't stay in Ji's house well, if you come back to Guo's house, you won't be divorced, right?"
"Guo Lide! Do you speak like that?"
Guo Yuqi's teeth were itching with hatred. If she hadn't still had the task assigned by Ji Dongming to complete, she would have definitely rushed forward and bit this wolf-hearted brother half to death.
Guo Lide shrugged and sat aside, "I guess it's because of you that the boy asked me to come back today. Tell me what's going on!"
"It's time for you to give me the kickbacks from the royal merchants over the past nine years."
"Kickback from imperial merchants?"
Guo Lide smiled very strangely and said sideways: "What do you mean, sister?"
"I want you to give me the kickback you owe me for nine years. That's why you are here in Guo Mansion today."
"Joke! I, Guo Lide, became an imperial merchant because of my real ability. Where did I get the royal merchant's kickback?"
"Guo Lide! Are you denying it?"
Guo Lide sneered again and again, "Are you sure? Then you can provide evidence. Do you have the receipt of the royal merchant's kickback that I want to sign?"
Frankly speaking, Guo Lide has made enough money in the past ten years, and recently his business focus is no longer on Huangshang's pharmaceutical industry, but on secretly cooperating with others to dig gold mines.
Therefore, when Guo Yuqi came to him to ask for money, he simply refused to acknowledge it with a tough attitude.
Anyway, His Majesty must not know that there is something fishy about the kickbacks from the royal merchants. If His Majesty were to find out, whether Ji Dongming's black gauze hat can be saved is another question.
Guo Yuqi was so angry that her face changed, and she pointed at Guo Lide, "Brother! That money is my master's life-saving money, how can you not give it?"
Guo Lide picked up the tea on the table, took a slow sip, and then said word by word: "You will also say that that is your master! Guo Yuqi, you must understand that you are already a married daughter.
You are no longer a member of my Guo family. What's more, you yelled at me as soon as you came back. Didn't anyone tell you where you learned your etiquette? A commoner is a commoner, and it really can't be brought to the forefront!
”
After saying that, he hit the teacup heavily on the table.
Guo Yuqi was shocked out of her mind by the bang.
That’s right!
Why is she so anxious that she loses her mind?
The eldest brother is her only lifeline now. If the eldest brother doesn't get the kickback back, then she won't mention Ji Dongming's wife. According to Ji Dongming's temperament, she will definitely make her life worse than death and just give her a piece of paper.
Letter of divorce.
If she were to be kicked out of Ji Mansion by Xiu at such an old age, there would be only one way for her to die.
"Brother, just treat it like Yuqi begging you, okay?"
Guo Yuqi fell to her knees on the ground with a plop, begging bitterly.
