Chapter 236 The Messy Mansion
Chapter 236 The Messy Mansion
These things are just appetizers. I'm afraid the real meal is waiting for me in the big house in the village.
Cao Feng's driving skills were getting better and better, and he didn't feel bumpy at all when traveling under the hazy moonlight.
Xiaojiu, Xiaoshi and the other three followed closely behind my carriage.
It makes me feel safe. This time when I come back, I am no longer helpless like before. No matter if it is just a bully or a tiger skin, I will protect myself.
Of course, I will protect my property.
A stranger wants to take advantage of me without even thinking twice.
I was so angry that I didn't want to say a word along the way.
Zi Su thoughtfully took out the pastries and said, "Mrs. Yun, eat a little. This will give you the energy and strength to deal with those who want to bully you."
"Okay, my Shiso is the most considerate. I reached out and took a piece and took a bite, then asked Shiso to pass the rest to the five people outside. Let them share and eat it all."
The sound of horse hooves made the dogs resting in the village start barking wildly. We went around the village and turned to the road towards the big house.
After getting used to the main roads outside, the village roads that I used to think were very good now seem a bit narrow.
It turns out that people's feelings change with their perspectives.
Considering that the carriage had to go in, they simply did not go through the main gate, but went around to the side gate. They were too lazy to ask someone to open the door. I jumped over the wall and opened the door. Cao Feng asked the carriage to drive directly into the wall of the mansion.
It was strange that there was a worker's house next to the side door, but now there was no one here. No one even noticed us coming in. Where did these people go?
Under my instructions, Cao Feng drove the carriage into the stable.
There were two empty rooms next to them. Cao Feng moved their luggage downstairs, while Zi Su carried me and her small package.
I walked around the warehouse in front and came to the embroidery workshop. There was no light and it was also pitch black.
It was as if no one lived here and it was completely silent.
On the contrary, the main courtyard on the other side of the gate was bustling with people, as if they were arguing about something? I guess everyone here has gone over there.
I walked forward quickly, and Xiaojiu, Xiaoshi and the other four disciples and Zisu quickly followed me.
I came to the yard where I lived. Fortunately, the door was still locked. No one should have opened it yet. My things should still be there.
I led them forward and only realized when we got closer that Liu Niang, Shopkeeper Su, Uncle Mo, Uncle Wu, and the people I bought before were all here.
I used the reception hall, and the yard in front of the hall was full of people.
A man and a woman sat on the main seat. On the left sat the Xiao family, the village head, and the clan leader. On the right sat the shopkeeper Su, Uncle Mo, Sixth Mother, and Fifth Uncle. Chuqi saw the girl leaning against the wall in a lazy manner.
Even Guihua, the little girl I arranged to be with Liu Niang, was now standing behind that woman.
At this moment, there was a fierce quarrel inside. The voices were loud, urgent, mixed and chaotic, and I couldn't hear clearly.
I stopped my steps and signaled to Xiaoshi and the others to keep quiet. I decided to just stop outside and listen to what they were saying first.
The first thing that reached my ears was a sharp female voice; "My husband is the male owner of this house. Naturally, everything here is decided by him. Even if my sister comes back, the husband is still the head of the wife. There is no reason to disrespect the husband. Now you don't hand over the account book. Are you trying to steal the money of the master family?"
Then came the voice of Shopkeeper Su; "That's not how you put it. What exactly happened? Madam Yun has to come back to tell us. It was Madam Yun who hired me. What is your relationship with her? What is going on? At least Madam Yun has to speak in person before I can execute. As for what you said about stealing the master's money, that's even more untrue. My account book can only be returned to the hands of whoever I took it from? Madam Yun didn't come back to admit your relationship with her. It's ridiculous to say that you stole the master's money. I was only hired by Madam Yun. I'm not a bought servant."
"Da Lang, you have to have some conscience. You have caused such a scene as soon as you came back. You are not doing justice to Yun Niang. We acknowledge your identity. We don't allow you to do whatever you want. If Yun Niang comes back like this, how will you face her?" The clan leader asked the man sitting at the top with great sorrow.
Hearing this, the man sitting at the head raised his head and said, "Patriarch, Yue'er is right. Yunniang and I are husband and wife. This home is mine. I am who I am, and my identity is real. I just haven't been home for a while. Now that I'm back, everything has to be corrected. It's only natural that I'm in charge of the affairs of the house. Shopkeeper Su, please take out the things!"
The people standing in the yard, not only the people from the big house, but also many other people from the village, began to talk about it. They said all kinds of things.
And they were divided into two groups. One group insisted on waiting for me to come back, led by the Zhang family, Granny Dong, Xiu'er and others.
Another group thought that what Xiao Jia Dalang said was right. He asked Manager Xiao to take out the account book.
It was as noisy as a vegetable market. Was this a big show?
