Chapter 428: Looking for scolding

Chapter 428 Looking for scolding

“Master, look at it, even the Chen family dislikes Gu Yumei. Can Gu Yumei still marry her? I think we should get rid of this marriage as soon as possible...”

"Shut up!" Wan Xiucai pointed at Ni and said angrily: "Retreat from the engagement. I look forward to renouncing the engagement every day. Are you so eager to slap me in the face?"

Then he pointed at Ni Laodong and said: "Is it your order that Ni Laodong's family went to check out the real status of the rich family? Whose servants are they? Who is in charge of this family? Ni, are you taking me for granted? do you died?"

Mrs. Ni hurriedly said: "Master, I was just talking casually, but I didn't really want to break off the engagement with the Gu family. Breaking off the engagement is a big deal. We are a family of scholars. If we break off the engagement because the in-laws are poor, we will be criticized. Backbone, I know this well, and I won’t do it like this.”

 Mr. Ni knew that Wan Xiucai was a good-looking man and would not let others scold him for hating the poor and loving the rich.

Wan Xiucai snorted coldly: "It's good that you know."

He added: "I will think about this marriage again. If it doesn't work, I have to find a reason to break off the marriage that is beneficial to our family."

It's really bad luck. I originally thought that Gu Dafu's family was rich, but unexpectedly he turned out to be poor. He actually borrowed money to live. So what will happen to him and Brother Fang's path to fame?

 How to take the exam for fame if you don’t have money?

The damned Gu Dafu and the plagued Gu Yumei dared to deceive his family. Wan Xiucai wanted to tear Gu Dafu's family apart.

Wan Xiucai felt ashamed and said to Mr. Ni: "Why are you still sitting there? Go down quickly to prepare the festival gifts. You must prepare the festival gifts to be sent to the county before the tenth day of the lunar month. You don't want to make the adults in the county laugh."

He also explained: "Zou County's Cheng family has been in a lot of troubles recently and has become the laughing stock of the county. I will reduce his family's etiquette by 30%."

"Yes, I'll do it right away." Mrs. Ni responded, but with disdain in her heart, she took Ni Ruiniang and Mrs. Ni back to the backyard.

 …

 Thousands of backyards.

Pozi Ni said, "Madam, do you really want to cancel the marriage with the Gu family?"

She lowered her voice and said to Mrs. Ni: "The Gu family's workshop has moved to the Lu family's mansion. I went to see it today. It's a fifth-level mansion. It's all blue brick buildings. You can't even see the end of it... To be able to buy such a big house and use it as a workshop, those families who escaped from famine must not be poor."

Mrs. Ni said: "You don't have to say that. So how can Gu's restaurant make less money when there are so many customers coming to pick up goods every day? Gu Dafu's family needs to borrow money to live because they were fined. It doesn't mean that they will be able to live at the end of this month. Can you get the dividends? By the time Gu Yumei comes to our family, the Gu Dafu family should be able to save a lot of money."

"I did this today not to break off the engagement, but to make the master and Brother Fang dislike Gu Yumei. You also know that the master loves face the most and is the easiest to believe other people's words. Let's just talk more about the Gu Dafu family. Speak ill of him and let him know how miserable the Gu Dafu family is, and then he will turn against our Ni family."

Ni Ruiniang took the opportunity to flatter Ms. Ni: "Mother Ni, you don't have to worry about this. Auntie is so smart and has already thought of a plan. Auntie is stewing meat over a slow fire, making uncle and cousin gradually dislike Gu Yumei's family."

Mrs. Ni quickly flattered her and said, "So that's it. The old slave is stupid and worries for nothing."

Mrs. Ni said: "This marriage cannot be canceled. No matter what, I want to marry Gu Yumei into the family. First, I will absorb the blood of the rich family for a few years. After draining the family's dividends, I will find a reason to divorce Gu Yumei." . Hey, being a concubine? It’s a beautiful thought. It costs nothing to raise a concubine.”

Ni's goal was achieved, and Wan Xiucai completely hated Gu Dafu's family.

Wan Lifang is also very dissatisfied with Gu Dafu's family, but he doesn't want to break off the engagement... Gu Yumei is good-looking, and he won't be reconciled to breaking off the engagement before they get involved.

Wan Lifang was not a good person in the first place. Because of this incident, he began to look down on Gu Yumei. He felt that such a girl who controlled everything must be restless. He didn't need to wait until he got married before touching her. He should be able to take advantage of her when he found an opportunity. Therefore, Wan Lifang did not treat Gu Dafu's family coldly. Instead, he spent more time going to Gu's restaurant. Thinking of having more chance encounters with Gu Yumei, he asked her out on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival and put her to bed first.

Gu Yumei didn't know that Wan Lifang was so shameless. When she went to deliver bean dregs to the shop, she bumped into Wan Lifang and was very happy, thinking that they were destined.

Qi Kangle stood in his shop, looking at Gu Yumei being coaxed into smiling by Wan Lifang, and couldn't help frowning, but she didn't say anything, but carried the basket to the open space next to the shop, and put it in the open space next to the shop. The green bricks on the cart were moved into the basket.

Chang Errui had just carried a load of green bricks into the shop. When he saw Qi Kangle coming to help move the bricks, he was very embarrassed and said: "Miss Qi, these green bricks are too heavy, just let me carry them."

Qi Kangle kept moving his hands, loading green bricks into the basket: "It's okay, there is still a cart of green bricks left. After moving it, you can go home."

These green bricks were sent to her shop to build the walls of the well. A total of five carts were delivered. After the first four carts were moved, Chang Errui did not want to delay the work of the workers, so she asked them to go back first and move the last cart by herself.

The workers at the brick kiln pay per truck for delivering green bricks. If they go back early, they can make more trips and earn more money.

After hearing this, Chang Errui did not refuse anymore and helped Qi Kangle put the green bricks into the basket. After putting most of the basket in, he said, "That's enough. If there are too many, it will be heavy and it will be hard to carry."

“Yeah.” Qi Kangle nodded and carried a load of green bricks into the shop.

As soon as she left, Gu Yumei snorted loudly: "Humph!"

Chang Errui pretended not to hear and quickly put the green bricks into the baskets, filling the two baskets full.

Gu Yumei was very angry when she saw that Chang Errui was ignoring her. When she saw that Wan Lifang had entered the shop and sat down, she took a sip in Chang Errui's direction and said, "Bah, you are a shameless thing and you have no shame!"

Chang Errui was walking to the braised food shop with a load on his shoulders. Hearing these words, he glanced at Gu Yumei, put down his load, and strode over with a sullen face.

Gu Yumei saw Chang Errui looking like he wanted to settle a score with her. She was very scared and wanted to run into the shop. Chang Errui immediately shouted in a deep voice: "Stop."

Gu Yumei was so frightened that she couldn't move immediately. She glared at Chang Errui and said, "You, what do you want to do? I, let me tell you, if you dare to take action, our eight families will not let you go."

Chang Errui ignored her warning and said in a cold voice: "You are engaged and our two families have no relationship for a long time. Live your life well and don't be so rude. If you dare to ruin Miss Qi's reputation, I will Tell Wanjia what happened between our two families."

Chang Errui said: "I'm a boy, it doesn't matter. It's different if you are a girl, but the Wan family still cares about face."

Gu Yumei was shaking with anger, pointed at him and said: "You, are you threatening me for Qi Kangle? Chang Errui, are you still a man?"

Chang Errui showed no mercy: "You are the one seeking the blame. You can't blame me."

Gu Yumei can scold him or ruin his reputation if she wants to, but she cannot implicate innocent people.
