Chapter 546 Quarrel

After hearing this, Mr. Qi hurriedly said: "Brother Yun is right. Manager Lin, please hurry up and hitch the mule cart to pick up the person."

 If you don’t bring people here, you won’t need to eat this banquet.

"Yes." Manager Lin immediately asked people to hitch two mule carts, and they searched all the way to Jiang's house.

 Arrived at Jiang's house, he asked the porter: "Can the Gu family go to the Qi Mansion for a banquet?"

The porter had already heard what Gu Jinli said and said directly to them: "Are you from the Qi family? The Gu family said that the Qi family's food is too hard for them to chew, so they will not go to this banquet."

Manager Lin was confused: "How do you say this? Our Qi family treats each other with courtesy, how can the Gu family be so rude?"

The concierge had a good impression of the Gu family and was unhappy when he heard this: "The Gu family are all well-mannered, but the ones who are ungrateful are the Qi family. I have never seen a post asking people to prepare for a certain time. This A little time is not enough to travel, do you really think that the Gu family is a servant of the Qi family? I will be here whenever you call me."

Manager Lin was even more confused: "What did you say? Our Qi Mansion sent the post one day in advance. Although the time was tight, it was in compliance with the rules and was not meant to be disrespectful."

The concierge said: "If you want to know the reason, you might as well go back home and ask."

After saying that, he closed the door with a bang, leaving Manager Lin with a confused look on his face.

"Guanshi Lin, what should we do now? The second master is still waiting at home." asked the accompanying boy.

Manager Lin said: "There must be some misunderstanding here. Go back home first and tell the matter to the second master."

 The two mule carts turned around and headed back home in despair.

After hearing this, Mr. Qi was confused: "How could this happen?"

He knew there must be some misunderstanding here, so he immediately called the old housekeeper and asked: "How many posts were sent out from the house yesterday? Who sent them and where were they sent?"

The old housekeeper was experienced in handling matters and quickly found out the matter. He came back to report: "To the second master, the house sent out five posts yesterday, two were sent back to her parents' home by the wife, and two were given by the two young masters. There is one from my classmate and one that you sent to the Gu family. These are recorded in the concierge’s book.”

Mr. Qi was shocked when he heard this, and quickly asked: "What about the ones that were not recorded in the book?"

The old housekeeper said: "There is one that I didn't remember. It was sent to Jiang's house by the lady in the old lady's yard."

 This post must be to blame.

Mr. Qi was so angry that he almost slammed the table: "Mom, what on earth does he want to do? He ruined all my good plans!"

The old housekeeper was very powerful and had many people in the house. He revealed something to Mr. Qi: "The second master said something that the old lady didn't like the night before, and the old lady in the yard heard it. The old lady should be angry. So, I deliberately posted a message to the Gu family, trying to beat the Gu family."

Mr. Qi frowned: "Did I say something that made my mother angry the night before? What words?" Why didn't he remember?

Mr. Qi's two retainers were here to keep him company. After hearing this, they reminded him: "Dong Weng said the night before that the Gu family has a spice business, and the boys in the family have hooked up with the Zheng family and the Shangguan family. They will definitely have a good future in the future." Yes, if you have a good future, you can let the young master or young lady in the family marry the Gu family."

Needless to say, these words must have made the old lady unhappy. The old lady is from a wealthy family, has a good family background, and loves her grandson. When she heard that Mr. Qi planned to marry a farmer, she would definitely take action.

Qi Yun and Qi He had long known that their families would marry them in the future, but they never expected that their father would marry them to a peasant girl? This, this, this, can they resist?

The two brothers looked at Mr. Qi's face that was about to explode with anger, and lowered their heads silently: Come on, it's better not to resist, the end will be tragic.

Mr. Qi was so angry that he ignored his image as a scholar. He jumped up and pointed in the direction of the courtyard where Mrs. Qi lived, saying: "That's just a drunken remark made by me after drinking a few too many glasses of wine. How can I take it seriously?!"

 Even if he was crazy, there was no way he would use his legitimate son to marry the Gu family, but his mother listened to a gossip and did this for him, causing him to offend the Gu family again.

The spice business is so popular. The Gu family sells spices to him because they have no backer in Fucheng. Now that he has joined the Zheng family and the Shangguan family, he can abandon the Qi family at any time, and his mother will still find trouble for him. This is a good life. Don't you know how hard it is to earn money?

There has been a drought for two consecutive years in the northwest of Da Chu, and then the disaster victims have caused trouble. The family's property has also been greatly affected. I have been living for two years, and I have only made a few months of money by relying on seasonings and spices.

Mr. Qi was so angry that he rushed directly to Mrs. Qi’s yard.

When the old housekeeper saw him, he hurriedly called Qi Yun and Qi He: "You two young masters, hurry up and persuade me."

 Don’t make it too ugly.

Qi Yun and Qi He hurriedly got up and chased after her. The old housekeeper also followed. As soon as the three of them arrived at the old lady's courtyard gate, they heard a commotion inside.

Mr. Qi: "Mom, are you my biological mother? In your eyes, your son is ignorant? How could I do something like giving my legitimate son to a peasant girl? I fell in love with Gu Jinan, I think he is a promising person and want to marry Sister Zhu to him."

"But I don't plan to mention this matter to the Gu family this time. It still depends on how his relationship with the Zheng family and the Shangguan family will be in the future? Can he be admitted to the imperial examination? If he gets both, his son will treat Sister Zhu. Marry him."

“I’m inviting the Gu family to a banquet today because I want to maintain the relationship between the two families so that the seasoning and spice business can continue to grow.”

"The capital, the capital is a big treasury. With big brother here, if we can get more goods from the Gu family, are we afraid that we won't be able to earn money from the people in the capital? Now it's fine. I'll let you do all the things I planned well. Mixed up!"

Mr. Qi shouted at the top of his lungs for a long time, almost losing his breath and gasping for air.

Qi Yun and Qi He listened outside the courtyard and felt relieved. It turned out that they were not being used to get married, but the concubine was being used to get married.

When Mrs. Qi heard Mr. Qi's words, she realized that she had misunderstood. But seeing Mr. Qi's cruel look on her, she covered her face and cried bitterly: "Uuuuuuuuuuuah, what evil have I done? At an early age, you still have to be pointed at and scolded by your son. Master, you died too early, why didn’t you wait for me to be your wife? If my wife followed you, you wouldn’t have to suffer the anger of an unfilial son!"

He cried again to the eldest son of the Qi family: "Boss, I regret my mother now. If I had known I should have followed you to the capital, I would have avoided staying in my hometown and disturbing your brother's eyes and becoming a bad mother in his eyes."

Mr. Qi was beaten upside down and almost vomited blood: "Are you still crying, boss? If boss is..." If he is really filial, will he take you to the capital?

The boss is just afraid of you. He knows that you are unreasonable and likes to make things difficult for Qiao. He is afraid that you will offend the old ladies of the official family in the capital and cause him to lose his official position, so he does not dare to pick you up.
