Chapter 18 Framed 1
Gu Qinghong lived for most of his life, and this was the first time someone said that in public. His old face was flushed, his mouth opened and he still didn't make a sound.

Who told him that the master in front of him was a difficult one to provoke.

In fact, this so-called "Patriarch of Baili" is just a name, his original name was Baili Yichen, and he was the first young master of the Baili family.

Because he supported all the properties of the Baili family by himself at such a young age, and ranked the Baili family at the top of the list every year, coupled with his outstanding appearance and perfect wrist, all the big families in the capital respected him as "Baili family" homeowner".

Thinking about the power of Patriarch Baili, Gu Qinghong could only swallow his grievances, and took two steps back with a flattering smile on his face: "Don't let me spoil you, I'll just take a few steps back, hehe... next few steps"

Due to the hot weather, the sandalwood door of the single room was slightly opened a gap, and Gu Qinghong's clumsy and flattering behavior was reflected in the eyes of everyone sitting outside.

The low-pitched sarcasm was endless, and Gu Qinghong seemed to feel that he had lost face, and he couldn't help but straighten his back angrily: "Patriarch Baili, here is the bill of lading, you should pay for it!"

Hearing this, Baili Yichen pursed his lips and smiled without saying a word. Before Gu Qinghong could say anything more, Shaoqing rushed in from the attic window not long after he left, and casually threw a piece of paper into Gu Qinghong's hand , snapped:

"Don't hurry up!"

Gu Qinghong was a little dazed by the scolding, he picked up the paper slip and glanced at it, and then his face changed dramatically: "This, this...Patriarch Baili, we have agreed, the weather is so hot now, those dishes can't be kept at all, I still have to use the money to support my family."

The implication is: Patriarch Baili, it seems a bit unreasonable for you to do this.

Without intending to say any more, Baili Yichen turned around and went out. Gu Qinghong was dumbfounded, the sweat from his temples curled down his neck: "Hey, don't go, Patriarch Baili! Please don't return my goods. You let me eat and drink whatever you do!"

Gu Qinghong hurried to catch up, but the only response to him was that the sandalwood door in front of him was slammed shut.

After being shut down for a while, Gu Qinghong became a little irritable, and simply threw the goods there cursingly. When walking on the muddy path, he accidentally fell down.

He limped to the Gu family's mansion. Seeing his distressed appearance, Mrs. Chen hurried up to meet him in surprise: "Master, what's wrong with you, master?"

Gu Qinghong took off his coat, and Chen threw the wet coat on the ground casually, and shouted to the outside: "Changxi, Changxi! Come and boil water for your father, and throw the clothes into the laundry room by the way!"

Gu Changxi walked in with a gloomy face. She angrily picked up the clothes on the ground. Since Gu Nianyao was kicked out of the house, all the trivial matters of running errands in the Gu family were left to her alone.

Gu Ninglian relied on her status as the eldest sister to dictate, without Gu Nianyao who could order and bully her, Gu Changxi could only obediently follow Chen's orders with a face full of reluctance.

Mrs. Chen came to beat Gu Qinghong's back with flattery, Gu Qinghong took a sip of hot tea, and then cursed: "Damn it, our family didn't send out the goods this year, and we didn't get the money."

Mrs. Chen looked at Gu Qinghong in surprise, her eyes rolled around. Doesn't the meaning of Gu Qinghong's words mean that this year's harvest has to be held in his hands again?

She just spent a large sum of money on making winter clothes and new year's goods a few days ago, and there is not much money left in the family.
