Rebirth of the little landlady

Chapter 360 What should be fought must be fought

These shady deals were all done under the account of the Qi family's dowry shop. The Song family had the Luo family come forward to contact the Qi brothers to ensure continuous financial resources. Of course, the Luo family also took advantage of it.

This gray income guaranteed Song Chengye's official career and prosperity, the Song family's life was good, and the Luo family's rear house was dominant, which also allowed the Qi family to make a lot of money, but no one ever remembered the poor man who should have enjoyed this money. Qi and Yuan Bao, not to mention the old couple of the Qi family who passed away prematurely due to the pain of bereavement. It can be said that the four of them spent money stained with blood.

"So, county lord, what are we going to do now? Is it to find the dowry list of the madam, and then return all these properties?" Yan Xi wished he could do it immediately, and express his anger earlier.

"Come back?" Yuan Bao sneered, "Won't that be too cheap for them?!"

In addition to cloth jewelry and some high-end daily necessities, the Qi family’s dowry also includes land properties and shops. The overall value is about 3 taels of silver, which is almost equivalent to Yuanbao’s current daily income. To be honest, if you only look at silver She really doesn't care, but if it is mixed with the grievances suffered by the mother's grandparents and grandchildren, the meaning will be different!

"I want to get back the black-hearted money they have earned over the past ten years, even with interest!" Yuan Bao said calmly, but his eyes were cold.

Yan Xi said bitterly, "The slaves think this is too cheap for them, the county master is just too soft-hearted..." However, thinking of the relationship between Yuan Bao and these people, she was discouraged again, this is "the son never blames his father" Besides, Yuan Bao was still a woman, and the scale of some things was really not easy to grasp. Yuan Bao was not married, not even engaged, and the Song family's reputation would be affected if there was any disturbance.

In fact, Yuan Bao thinks farther. She still bears the identity of the adopted daughter of the Yu family and Ni Yuze's fiancée. In the eyes of others, she is one with Ni Yuze. Even her relationship with the Su family is deeply involved. A little carelessness will cause trouble. A large group of people were born in turmoil in Beijing. Ni Yuze and Su Chunsheng are now being roasted on the fire. She has to be careful everywhere. If not, she will not be so determined to face the Song family alone this time. It's a mess.

Yuan Bao sighed softly and rubbed his forehead, and said simply, "Get the money back first, or else I'll lose the person, who will pay for it? Besides, I always feel that with the character of these people, once the money goes out If there is any trouble, they will naturally bite the dog for their own interests, and we just need to watch from the sidelines!" After all, after living two lifetimes, Yuan Bao still has a good grasp of human nature, not to mention these reasons People who are ungrateful.

"This is a good way!" Yan Xi nodded, "Then what does the county magistrate plan to do?"

"No rush." ​​Yuan Bao said, "I'll give them one last chance to verify whether my guess about their contact this time is correct, and we'll discuss it later."

"Yes." Yan Xi agreed.

The first thing Yuanbao did when she arrived in Linze County was to pay respects to the Qi family. So, early the next morning, she ordered people to unfurl the guard of honor of the county lord and headed for the grave of the Song family ancestors. There was a commotion, and many people crowded the streets to watch, but it was a pity that there were too many guards and maids, and no one had ever seen Yuan Bao's true face, which was also intentional by Yuan Bao.

Kneeling in front of her biological mother's grave, Yuan Bao sighed faintly. She is a soul that traveled from modern times, with a maturity and reality that people of this era do not have. To be honest, Qi Shi does not have much emotion, even I feel that Qi Shi himself is also responsible for the tragedy of Qi Shi's life.

If Mrs. Qi could obey his parents, be steadfast, and abide by the etiquette, he would not be seduced by Song Chengye, and used by Luo and his two elder brothers with ulterior motives. The so-called flies do not bite eggs without seams. quite applicable.

Judging from the information Yuan Bao has in hand, Qi's back then had an outstanding appearance, a wealthy family, and was doted on by his parents. Whether he was in the Qi family or after marrying into the Song family, he always maintained the capricious temper of a young lady, and he was not smart enough. , can't judge the situation, just blindly holding money and arrogance, whether it is the attitude towards the husband or the subordinates, he is very tough, and many people don't like it, which is why Luo Shi eats him to death.

When the Qi family married into the Song family, there were already many discords between Song Chengye and the Luo family. However, if the Qi family is smarter and can be cautious in words and deeds, it is very possible to treat Song Chengye with respect, at least not in just two years. Song Chengye So disgusted that she lost her life in vain, the huge dowry added by her loving parents to protect her not only did not bring her happiness, but instead became her death talisman.

"It is obviously a good hand, but it is played so badly. It can be seen that the same fate can also create a different life. Instead of complaining all day long, it is better to be self-reliant, start from a small place, and strive to create your own happiness," Yuan Bao said. I sighed silently in my heart, "I will seek justice for you, but your happiness depends on yourself. If there is an afterlife, I hope you can learn from the pain and find your own happiness."

This worship made Yuan Bao feel more open-minded, and it also let many people know that the county head of the Song family in Linze County has returned. The county head's mother is the Qi family, and the county head is quite filial, so From the third day after Yuanbao arrived in Linze County, the Song family became crowded, and there were countless people who gave gifts and asked for a visit.

The same situation also happened in the Qi family. In this era where disasters are likely to implicate the nine clans, it is more common for one person to ascend to heaven. It is really normal for everyone to do this.

"Brother, what... what should I do?" Qi Sicheng looked at Qi Siyuan and became lost again.

"What should I do? Haven't we all discussed it? Are you going to change your mind again? However, I will put the ugly words to the front and I will go to you yourself. I dare not cause such a big trouble!" Qi Siyuan got angry in his heart , the tone is naturally extremely blunt, God knows, how entangled his mood is when he looks at those people who come to make friends, but he still has to put on a happy smiling face, and the corners of his mouth are sour from smiling every day. When asked, when will he go? When the Song family visited, he was so embarrassed that he could only rack his brains to prevaricate, for fear of being spotted, causing trouble or being looked down upon. Sometimes he could not help but imagine that if he hadn't been right back then The little girl did something wrong, and now she can face Yuan Bao frankly, what kind of situation will it be like!

"Brother, what are you talking about? Anyway, we are also grasshoppers on the same rope. Could it be that if something happens to you, what else can I gain? I'm not discussing with you, you know Brother, I've always looked up to my elder brother!" Qi Sicheng yelled with wide-eyed eyes, as if he could show his loyalty by doing so.

But Qi Siyuan didn't like his tricks, he waved his hand impatiently and said, "That's all right, all right, you've got the usual benefits, so ask me for advice, in fact, no matter what I say, shouldn't you Do you still do what you want?! I have made it clear what I mean, how to do your business, you can make up your own mind!"

On the surface, Qi Sicheng seems to have no idea, but in fact, Qi Sicheng is a stingy one. He is just used to following Qi Siyuan's words first, and then decides what to do. He thinks that only in this way can he maximize his own interests. How can a person who calculates his sister's dowry really talk about brotherhood?Of course, Qi Siyuan was the same as him.

"Hehe," Qi Sicheng smiled mischievously, "Then don't bother elder brother, and there will be guests coming again later, so I'll go back first."

As soon as Qi Sicheng walked out of Qi Siyuan's door, the smile on his face disappeared. After thinking twice, he asked someone to send another 1000 taels of silver to Song Chengye, and carefully told his servants, "I met the Song family. Master, you must make it clear that this is me, a person," patted his plump chest, "give it to him for turnover, after all, he has a different status now, and there are many places to spend money, this money can be compared with our family My lord, and the business in the shop, it has nothing to do with it!"

Hearing the servant repeat his words again, Qi Sicheng hurried away, feeling a bit more at ease.

After Song Chengye received this banknote, he was very angry. In the past, the brothers of the Qi family would give tens of thousands of taels of silver, and as long as there was a chance, when would they not come to see him in person? !But now it's good, not only the money is less, but also only send a servant, the real people go to the tea!

Yesterday when Luo Shi came back with the 1000 taels of silver, Song Chengye was so angry that Song Chengye didn't sleep well all night, and Qi Sicheng came here to curry favour, did he really think he didn't know about Luo Shi's nasty things? !

However, Song Chengye didn't dare to show it on his face. He had no choice. Who made him really short of money now, and besides the brothers of the Qi family, he really had no one to count on. I understand, the little girl has so many things to do when she comes back this time, after a while of busy work, relatives still have to walk around more!" The smile was very warm, but a little stiff.

The servants of the Qi family said goodbye repeatedly and left. Song Chengye strode towards the east courtyard of Yuanbao. He walked through the wide alley between the two courtyards, and his hasty steps were blocked by the corner gate of the east courtyard.

"If you go back to the master, the county lord has never returned to the mansion!" Yuan Bao's servants spoke concisely and had a cold attitude, even their eyes were not even half respectful.

Song Chengye really wanted to act like the head of the family, and cursed, "A girl's family, who runs out all day, what's the proper way?! As a father, I have to wait for my servants to tell me if I want to see her." Chuan, did she put me in her eyes?!"

But Song Chengye didn't dare. He knew that if he really got angry, not only would he fail to achieve his goal, but he would also be angry with his subordinates, and he might be rejected directly. Even now, is it true that Yuan Bao is not in the mansion? , or avoiding him, he was not sure.

Song Chengye had no choice but to leave a message, telling Yuan Bao to come see her after returning home, and then turned back to his yard.

That night, after Yuan Bao returned to the mansion, he routinely asked the person who was seeking to see him today, and found that there were still no brothers from the Qi family. His face was very calm, but Yan Xi couldn't help but said, "I really let the county magistrate guess, it must be Luo Shi who went to deal with them." What did they say, they dare not come to see the county lord, otherwise, let's go to see them, in other words, they are uncles and elders, and it makes sense for us to visit them."

Yuan Bao shook his head, "But that way, we won't be able to ask them for anything." As a daughter, she couldn't take the initiative to ask Song Chengye for her mother's dowry, and Song Chengye was shameless, Yuan Bao didn't have that skill Er and mood are entangled with him, besides, the current Song family's family business may not be able to take out this money, so Yuan Bao can only wait for the Qi brothers to "get ahead" for her. , it is normal, and with the support of Yuan Bao, the county lord, she will surely succeed. The question is, how can Yuan Bao make the brothers of the Qi family willingly stand up for her.

"Then just wait!" Yan Xi couldn't think of a better way.

"Master Huang, please see me." When the little girl came in to pass on the message, Yuan Bao and Yan Xi exchanged glances.

This mother Huang was Yuan Bao's nanny in the Song family back then, and she was the only nanny in Yuan Bao's two lifetimes.

The relationship between the nanny and the master is usually quite deep. Many people will not treat them as slaves, but as elders to serve them. When a girl gets married, the nanny is often a dowry. After arriving at her husband's house, she will continue to escort her and become the master The steward in the mother's yard, even if he made a mistake, he would give up his old feelings lightly.

In contrast, the fate of Yuan Bao, the nanny, was a bit sad. She was originally the dowry maid of the Qi family, and she was very good-looking.After Mrs. Qi married into the Song family, she found out about Song Chengye's lust. In order not to cause trouble for her, she simply married Mrs. Huang to a steward in the Song family. As a result, Mrs. Huang and Mrs. Qi became pregnant at about the same time.

At this moment, Mrs. Qi realized the danger in the Song Mansion, so she thought of asking Mrs. Huang to be a nurse for her future child. Unexpectedly, after Mrs. Huang returned to the mansion, she saw Mrs. Qi's body.

Later, Yuan Bao "lost", and the Qi family's dowry servants were either sent back to the Qi family or sold off. Only Mama Huang was left behind and insisted on waiting for Yuan Bao's return, but she was repeatedly accused of negligence in guardianship. , was suppressed by Roche from time to time, and lived extremely depressed.

When she was in the capital, Huang’s mother was sent to Geyue Nunnery by Song Hsinchu as a "stepping stone". Just use her poor health as an excuse not to arrange any errands for her.

And Ms. Huang is also a wonderful person. When she met Yuan Bao on the way to Beijing for the first time, she was so excited that she couldn't restrain herself, like crazy, but she was very quiet afterwards, without asking any information about Yuan Bao. It was as if I had never seen Yuan Bao again.
