Chapter 426 The Xue family’s current situation 1
"Haha, don't worry. Don't look at the monk's face and the Buddha's face. He Yuqing is your sister. I won't be really angry." Bi Yuntao said with a smile.
Looking at the slightly ugly smile on Bi Yuntao's face, Mr. He kept muttering in his heart, if you are not angry, you will be a ghost.
But Bi Yuntao said so, and Third Master He couldn't say anything. He could only silently pray for He Yuqing in his heart. At the same time, he was also a little worried. Will doing this this time affect the relationship between the He family and the Xue family? Bi Yuntao will not be grudged.
Soon, under the leadership of Xiao He, Bi Yuntao and Mr. He came to the main hall.
As soon as they arrived at the door, they saw Musashi, Xiao Cilang, and Yuanfang kneeling on the ground. All three of them looked disgraced. It was obvious from a glance that they would be punished after being caught.
Of course, this is not the most important thing. Xue Ruyue looked bitter and sad, with obvious traces of crying on her face, and she was already panicking.
Mrs. Xue's face is also pale now. Even though she is facing the aggressiveness of the He family brothers and sisters, Mrs. Xue still maintains the elegance and gentleness of a Jiangnan woman, fully displaying the domineering spirit engraved in her bones without losing her dignity.
Bi Yuntao was stunned by Mrs. Xue's posture. For a moment, he thought that this was the queen's personal conquest. She was majestic and dignified, and her temperament was not inferior to that of the empress who was the queen of the world.
This made Bi Yuntao curious about Mrs. Xue's life experience. What kind of family and family could cultivate such a woman.
But when he turned his attention to the He brothers and sisters, and saw the domineering and aggressive attitude of He Yuqing, the little pepper, Bi Yuntao suddenly felt a fire of ignorance welling up in his heart.
Especially the graceful and graceful Tang Monk who closed his eyes and meditated. Bi Yuntao felt annoyed when he saw him. Coupled with the little pepper dressed in red next to it, it is simply as annoying as you want.
"Brother He, do you really want to be so aggressive about the relationship between our Hexue family?" Xue Ruyue said with a sad face.
"How can we be aggressive? Paying back debts is a matter of course. Your servants of the Xue family caught my pet treasure-hunting rat and ate it indiscriminately. Of course I will come to ask for it. It's only fair!" He Yuqing said aggressively.
"Brother He, is this what you mean?" Xue Ruyue ignored He Yuqing and looked at He Juncong hopefully. However, seeing He Juncong still closing his eyes and concentrating without saying a word, Xue Ruyue's His face suddenly turned pale.
She couldn't help but have mist in her eyes. The stubborn character she had developed over the years made her struggle not to cry. Tears kept rolling in her eyes, and her charming posture lingered. Looking in Bi Yuntao's eyes, Bi Yuntao's heart felt like a knife.
Just when Bi Yuntao hesitated, Mrs. Xue said righteously: "It is only natural to pay back the debt. They are the servants of my Xue family. They ate your beloved pet, Miss He, for the sake of their lust. I The Xue family naturally admits that, as for you saying that you will marry Ru Yuexia to He Juncong, this is absolutely impossible."
"Not to mention that Ru Yue already has a lover, even if Ru Yue doesn't have a sweetheart, I can't agree. If I agree to your conditions, wouldn't it be selling my daughter for glory? What do others think of my Xue family? My Xue family How can we gain a foothold in Jinling City in the future?"
"So, Mrs. Xue, are you ready to pay?" He Yuqing's eyes were shining with a bright light, which was the look of someone who is obsessed with money.
"That's right!" Mrs. Xue nodded and said: "Ru Yue, go and call the accountant here, let him calculate how much silver is left in the account, and pay all the one million taels of silver to Miss He."
"Mother, the account..." Xue Ruyue pursed her lips tightly, with a gloomy expression, her pale lips constantly trembling slightly. Under Madam Xue's gaze, she told a piece of news that almost collapsed Madam Xue.
"There is no money in the account, and we are all relying on the only savings we have to support ourselves."
"What!" After hearing the news, Mrs. Xue's dignified and gentle expression suddenly disappeared, her face was pale and without any color, "What on earth is going on?"
"Our remaining shops have been reduced to ten, and the good supply of goods has been cut off. All we get are defective goods that others don't want. The reason why we can still persist until now is all because of the Xue family's integrity and previous experience. In terms of friendship, he chose to continue to cooperate with us."
With a "plop", Xue Ruyue knelt in front of Mrs. Xue and continued with sobs: "Yesterday I received the news that even these defective goods will be cut off after the new year. I thought about it and hid it from my mother. I secretly used all the money in my account to buy a batch of high-quality silk. I wanted to tell my mother when the business improved, but I didn't expect that something like this happened now. Please punish me."
"It's God who wants to destroy our Xue family!" Mrs. Xue lamented, slumped on the chair, held her forehead and said feebly: "Ru Yue, get up! This is not your fault, you are also thinking about the Xue family."
"In that case, Ru Yue, sell some of your family's property and see how much money you can collect and give it to the He family."
Although the tragic experience of the Xue family made people sigh, He Juncong still remained calm, closed his eyes and rested, and was indifferent to it.
"Wait!" Bi Yuntao walked in boldly, walked to Xue Ruyue's side, helped Xue Ruyue up from the ground, and in front of everyone, took Xue Ruyue into his arms and whispered softly. Comfort: "Sister Xue, don't be sad, leave everything here to me."
"Tao!" Seeing Bi Yuntao, Xue Ruyue could no longer bear the sadness in her heart and sobbed in Bi Yuntao's arms.
Xue Ruyue had already burst into tears in Bi Yuntao's arms. He had never seen Xue Ruyue so helpless before, and Bi Yuntao's heart was cut by a knife.
For some reason, while comforting Xue Ruyue, she subconsciously glanced at Mrs. Xue. When she saw Mrs. Xue, she also had sad eyes and a pale face. Although she still remained dignified and gentle, there was something visible in her expression. Helpless and dejected.
Xue Ruyue looked exactly like Mrs. Xue. Mrs. Xue was sitting there helplessly, which actually gave Bi Yuntao an illusion, as if Xue Ruyue was sitting there helplessly and slumped, which made Bi Yuntao feel like rushing. The urge to hold her in his arms and comfort her in the past.
Bi Yuntao shook his head violently and quickly shifted his gaze. If he continued to look at her, he might really lose control and pull Mrs. Xue into his arms for comfort.
After not looking at Mrs. Xue, Bi Yuntao calmed down a little. He held up Xue Ruyue's pretty face, gently kissed her lips that were red and swollen from crying, and kissed away the tears in the corners of her eyes. , said softly: "Sister Xue, if you blame yourself so much, Mrs. Xue will feel uncomfortable. Don't worry, I'm here!"
