Chapter 144
Du Fuqi ran down as soon as he saw Xiao Jingtang, hurriedly pulled his sleeve and said, "Jingtang, what are you doing?"
With a deep look at her, Xiao Jingtang said lightly: "I want to ask, what are you doing?"
After choking his throat, Du Fuqiu said quickly: "It's very messy here, let's go back first?"
Seeing her come down, someone who was familiar with the matter called the second young master of the Xiao family, and the people in the circle were even more excited. The scene was so lively that the ruthless ex-girlfriend, the second young master of the Xiao family, and the current second young master who is loved by the second young master, plus the second young master of the Xiao family, are even better than the ones singing on the stage.
"What are you going back to do? Grandma Er?" Wen Rou smiled and looked at her and said, "If I don't explain it clearly today, how can I do business in this shop? Didn't your Xiao family say that I am so beautiful and climbing the walls of the Pei family? Come on, now, in front of so many people, come out evidence to see me?"
Xiao Jingtang frowned, glanced around, and his eyes fell on her: "That's all a misunderstanding."
"Misunderstanding?" Gentle laughed: "You know it's a misunderstanding now? Do you know how much harm this misunderstanding has caused to me? You know it's a wrong one? Why didn't you think about it when you spread rumors before?"
Spreading rumors? Xiao Jingtang asked curiously: "Who did you say spread the rumors?"
Could it be that the people of Xingcheng made up their own things when they heard the news?
He looked at him deeply and gently reacted. It seemed that this matter was not done by Xiao Jingtang, so there was only one possibility.
"The second young master asked me, why not ask Mrs. Zun," she said.
With a stern look, Xiao Jingtang looked at Du Fuqiu, who lowered his eyes guiltily and whispered: "Who has time to care about her? Are you still afraid that others will say what she has done by herself?"
"What did she do?" A voice rang out from the crowd.
Everyone was stunned and moved away, but saw Pei Ji's boss Pei Fangwu slowly walking over, looking serious, holding a folding fan in his hand, but the fan was not opened.
"I have never found an opportunity to explain, nor can I explain. Since there are so many people today and it is broad daylight, Pei has something to do to explain it clearly by Master Xiao."
Xiao Jingtang frowned, watched him stand up next to Wenrou, staring at himself with his eyes, and said in annoyance: "I have never had any misfortune with Du Shi Lurou, but it's just business dealings. Why did you get into the mouth of your Xiao family? You are just climbing the wall and raising flowers, extremely vulgar?"
The people were in an uproar and no one could explain clearly the matter of following the crowd, but hearing the confrontation between the parties involved was at least more true than what others said, so they all pointed their ears and listened.
Seeing that Du Wenrou's dirty body was about to be cleaned, Du Fuqi quickly stood up and said, "Everyone knows that your Master Pei likes Du Wenrou. At this time, he turned black and white to defend her. He just wanted to marry her cleanly in the future? But the Xiao family is as kind as a mountain to her. Why did she treat the Xiao family? It's because everyone has eyes!"
"How am I right to the Xiao family?" Gentle sneered and turned to look at Xiao Jingtang: "The Second Young Master is a person with a clear love and hate. When he misunderstood, he drove me out of the mansion directly, but why did he stand in front of me calmly and not scold me?"
"Because you did not do anything wrong." Cooperating with her eyes down, Xiao Jingtang said word by word, loudly: "I misunderstood that you had an affair with Pei Fangwu and wronged you."
Her husband said this, and Du Fuqi's situation was very embarrassing. Smart people would choose to swallow their anger and shut up as a misunderstanding. But she was so arrogant and opened her mouth and said, "How is it a misunderstanding? She helped the Pei family like that, but it still has nothing to do with the Pei family?"
"I don't know how the Du family taught you." He suppressed his anger, smiled gently, and said dignifiedly: "But the education I received since childhood is to not guess others with the most vicious ideas. Someone once said, what you think of, what kind of person you are, and the second young lady must not be very clean, so she thinks of people so unbearable."
"You!" Du Fuqi gritted his teeth: "I have a clear conscience. Do you dare to say that you have a clear conscience?"
Gentle sneered: "A person like you dare to say that you have a clear conscience, so this sentence is really worthless. You are not a person involved, but you are more excited than anyone else. You come to slander me and destroy my reputation, and wish I was not good. Do you have the right to scold me for being vicious with such a heart?"
"I……"
"I think everyone present knows how important a woman's reputation is." Du Fuqi ignored her, turned her head gently and looked around, and said seriously: "If one day your wife and daughter are slandered, you will probably be able to understand my feelings. Rumors are more powerful than tigers. The little woman has never violated any etiquette and just wants to make a living by herself. However, someone refuses to agree and insists on pouring dirty water on me. Then I will make an appointment here today."
"In the city of Xuncheng, no matter whether it is a man, woman, young or old, as long as I can provide evidence that my Du family is gentle affair with the young master of the Pei family, he can take whatever he wants to take!"
As soon as these words came out, I exclaimed everywhere. Everyone knows how precious the things in Liulixuan are. Now, as long as you find evidence, you can take them at will?!
Originally, everyone was watching the fun, and they just wanted to find a topic of conversation after dinner, and no one would really pursue the truth of the matter. This truth is the same in ancient times or modern times, so gentle knows it, and it is useless to explain it, and it has to be proved.
Don’t you all think she had an affair with Pei Fangwu? That’s OK, find evidence!
"Hey, didn't you say last time that Du Wenrou and Pei Fangwu were compatible, and they said it the same as you saw with your own eyes? Go get the things now!"
"I... I'm not capable of taking it. Didn't that person even pick up the embroidered shoes that Du lost when he had a secret love interest? Take it on and let's help you carry Liuli home!"
"Actually, I don't know very well. Who said it was so vivid..."
The crowd started to riot and talked a lot. Gentle and calmed down a little. He waved his hand to ask Xiuyue and Shufang to carry out the table and said, "Everyone discuss it slowly, I will write this agreement and hang it at the door of my Liulixuan. By the way, since the second young master of the Xiao family has wronged me, should he also write an open letter with me?"
"What is an open letter?"
"It's just that you wrote publicly that wronged me, and I didn't do anything to the wall." Rolling your eyes, and said gently: "Otherwise, just what I wrote is hanging, those who don't know the situation would think what happened to Wen's Liulixuan!"
How could I agree to this? Du Fuqi stared at me. How could Xiao Jingtang value face? Isn’t it equivalent to telling the whole city that he was wrong? How could it be...
"Okay." Xiao Jingtang nodded, and responded, without anger on his face, his expression seemed to be more relaxed.
Pei Fangwu frowned and glanced at Wenrou with a lot of distress.
No matter how much she clarified, she was always discussed and was really open-minded. If someone else had been, she would have committed suicide.
"I'll write it too." Pei Fangwu said: "Anyway, I'll also be in it."
"Young Master Pei is not bothering you." Seeing Wenrou pick up the brush, Xiao Jingtang quickly reached out and snatched it over, dipping the ink and said, "I and her are enough. If you roll it in again, it will be trouble again, let alone..."
Looking up at him, Xiao Jingtang smiled slightly and whispered: "She is innocent to you, but you may not have no idea about her."
Pei Fangwu paused and frowned slightly.
Gentleman pretended not to hear it, and reached out to grab the brush: "You can't let me write first?"
"No." After glanced at her, Xiao Jingtang said expressionlessly: "You always break the brush, so how can I write it? You can break it when I finish writing."
gentle:"……"
It seems to make sense?
Du Fuqi frowned and looked at them. The more he looked, the more aggrieved she felt. Xiao Jingtang was very indifferent to her, but why did he treat Du Wenrou completely differently? He obviously hated her very much before. In this blink of an eye, why did he protect him like this? Not only did he protect him, but Pei Fangwu also protected him. Why?!
After finishing writing the apology letter from Master Xiao Er, Wen Rou took it over and wrote a few notices. He asked someone to take two wooden boards out and put them at the door.
"Black and black, please try your best to find it." He clapped his hands and smiled gently, "Millions of silver are waving to you."
The people who reacted were then dispersed and went to find someone. Anyone who knew the maids of the Xiao family or the slaves of the Pei family came out to ask.
Gentle turned his head, looked at Du Fuli, whose expression was a little distorted, and smiled slightly: "Do you hate me very much?"
He looked up and stared at her, Du Fu sneered.
"It's okay, I hate you very much." Gentle shrugged: "But my friend would like to remind you to be careful when you go back and don't make mistakes again. Your mother-in-law may have disliked you."
Mother-in-law? Mrs. Xiao? Du Fuqi sneered: "I am the daughter of the Du family. She is very satisfied with her daughter-in-law. What are you not going to like..."
Halfway through his words, Du Fu's face turned green when she remembered the bracelet just now.
I was planning to recover the bracelet and not buy it, so I made a fuss with Du Wenrou here. I didn't expect that she would react so much that she forgot about it for a while, so... the bracelet should have been sent to the Xiao family now.
"I'm a little tired today, Liulixuan will close early." After yawning, he said gently: "Miaomeng and I have something else to go. Thank you for your righteous actions, and thank you Mr. Pei for your help. Let's take the lead."
Want to return the goods? Liulixuan will not accept them. For the sake of this ten thousand taels, Mrs. Xiao will not do it even if it has ruined the reputation of the Xiao family. She will only knock down teeth and swallow blood, and will be particularly disgusted with Du Fuqi, a daughter-in-law who is ignorant of her ability.
Once his mother-in-law is disgusted with this kind of feudal family, Du Fuqi's life will not be better. When she thinks of this, Wenrou feels a little better, rolls her eyes and wants to leave.
"Gentle." After looking at the people who had not yet dispersed, Pei Fangwu said worriedly: "I'll give you a ride, and I'll have something to say to you by the way."
After looking at him, Wenrou wanted to refuse, she saw him adding: "Discuss on business, not about anything else."
Xiao Jingtang frowned and said in a deep voice: "Wen and Xiao Ji have joined forces to run the business. Isn't it a bad thing for Mr. Pei to invite her to discuss business in front of me?"
"She should have a chance to choose. It's unreasonable that the second young master will block the entire road." Looking back at him, Pei Fangwu smiled: "The second young master has been at the upper hand from the beginning. What are you worried about now?"
The second young master Xiao looked not very good-looking, and he seemed to be about to start arguing again. Gentle pulls Ruan Miaomeng out of it, takes Xiuyue with him, and smooths out: "Okay, Mr. Pei wants to discuss business, so let's take a step now. The second young master should go home to check the bill when he has time."
Bill? Xiao Jingtang looked at her in confusion, then looked at Du Fuqiu.
Du Fuqi pulled his sleeve aggrievedly: "Shoot, let's go back and explain to my mother. That bracelet is really not what I want to buy..."
Had trouble again? Xiao Jingtang frowned. Seeing that Wenrou and her group had already got on the carriage, they had no choice but to take her back.
Rich families like the Xiao family are not short of money and are willing to spend money, but there will still be problems if they spend such a large amount of money at once.
Mrs. Xiao was also a kind mother-in-law, but she almost cursed while sitting in the room holding the bills delivered from the account.
"How dare she spend money like this?" She slapped the table in anger, and Mrs. Xiao said, "No matter how rich my Xiao family is, it cannot afford to spend money like this!"
The accountant said helplessly: "I heard from Liu Lixuan's guy that the second young lady is very generous. Besides this bracelet, there is anything else to buy?"
There was something else?! I almost passed away. Mrs. Xiao sat in a chair, holding her forehead and said, "Go, call me back!"
"yes!"
Du Fuqi hurried back. As soon as he stepped into the door, he had not had time to speak, but a cup of tea fell in front of her. The splash of water splashed, which scared her and her face turned pale: "Mom?"
"Be a daughter-in-law, be thrifty and thrifty." Mrs. Xiao said coldly: "I don't know if you treat the Xiao family as a treasury or something else. I don't say anything about you when I spend a lot of money on weekdays. I take the account book from Miaomeng and say it's my order. I don't say anything about you. You are getting too much more and more?!"
He cursed at the beginning. Du Fuqi was so frustrated that he didn't dare to talk back, so he could only kneel on the ground and said aggrievedly: "I don't want to buy that bracelet..."
"If you don't buy something that your second young lady in Xiao family doesn't buy, can you even come to your door?" Mrs. Xiao smiled and rubbed her forehead and said, "I thought it would be better to marry you, after all, it's more in line with the will of awesomeness. Now it seems that it's a mess."
This was a bit serious, and Du Fuqi was also a petty person. He immediately shook his face and couldn't help but say, "What does it have to do with me? Didn't you just let me marry me for the Du family's power? I don't owe you anything."
As soon as this was said, Mrs. Xiao thought she had heard it wrong: "What did you say?!"
"That's how it is." Du Fu curled his lips: "You Xiao family is really hard to serve. One Du Wenrou has been deposed by you. I am also disliked by you when I come over. If you think you don't need the Du family, just say it, I can still remarry, why do you make it as if I begged you?"
He took a few breaths in disbelief. Mrs. Xiao was so angry that she stood up with red eyes: "Is there no noble or inferiority? Your eldest lady in the Du family is amazing. You dare to climb up to the elders?"
"Then you let me go!" Du Fu cried: "You let me go, our Du family and your Xiao family will break up with each other!"
