Zuodu Yushi's eyes widened and his beard trembled with anger.
"You, you, you, you are so stubborn! You just bribed a court official yesterday and was caught by me. Today, you came to bribe me again?! What a Wuding Marquis!"
He kicked Jiang Fu's jewelry box over and said sternly: "Don't you think that all officials can be bribed by your yellow and white things! I will not accept your tricks! You behave like this, I I will report it to the Holy One truthfully! Let him decide!"
"snort!"
Zuodu Yushi bent down and entered the carriage. The coachman pushed Jiang Fu aside and put away the small bench. He raised his whip and squeezed past Jiang Fu's carriage.
"Sir! Sir, don't leave, sir! We can discuss everything easily, sir!!"
"I am from the Wuding Hou Mansion!"
Jiang Fu sat down on the street, crying helplessly.
Yun He put away all the jewelry, wiped away tears and said, "Miss, what should we do now?"
"...Go to Zhao Mansion, let's go to Zhao Mansion to find Zhao Kuo!"
The carriage drove away from the alley, and the hawker who got up early in the alley not far away showed his head, stretched his neck, looked at Jiang Fu's leaving carriage, and shook his head.
I walk here every day, but I didn't expect to see such a big show today.
Jiang Fu rushed all the way to the front door of Zhao's house, calculating that Zhao Fu had already gone to court, so she stepped forward and knocked the door knocker loudly.
"Who is it? Coming to the Zhao Mansion early in the morning to be wanton?"
The corner door on the side opened from the inside, and the concierge poked his head in and cursed.
"I'm looking for Zhao Kuo! I'm from the Wuding Hou Mansion. He said he was doing business with me but now he's leaving me alone! Go in and tell him! If he dares to ignore me, I'll cause trouble for the things he led me to do. Everyone knows! Those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes!"
"Where did this crazy bitch come from..."
The porter muttered something, then closed the corner door and waited.
Seeing that time passed little by little and no one came yet, Jiang Fu got a little annoyed and was about to make a fuss when the corner door opened.
"The young master calls you over. Come with me."
The servants led Jiang Fu all the way to the living room. Zhao Kuo was sitting in the hall drinking tea. His leisurely and happy look made Jiang Fu feel itchy!
"Why do you still have time to drink tea here!"
"Girl, if you don't want to make your fortune, why are you here making trouble with me?"
"You ask me? Yesterday, someone came to my shop to make trouble, and they all went to the censor! That damn old man didn't want to get in, and he said he wanted to report it to the emperor! You bought that batch of cotton with me , you have to take responsibility! Otherwise, if something happens, don’t blame me for blaming it on you!"
Zhao Kuo shrugged and spread his hands.
"What did the girl say? Why can't I understand a word? What did I buy for you? You brought in the cotton for your own shop. What does it have to do with me?"
"you?!"
Jiang Fu's eyes widened, she didn't expect Zhao Kuo to kill the donkey!
"What are you pretending to be? Your shop also sells cotton cloth, so you're not afraid of-"
"Girl, please don't talk nonsense. The cotton in my shop is of the highest quality, costing four hundred cents a piece, which is incomparable to your two hundred cents."
Jiang Fu's legs became weak and she fell back several steps.
Zhao Kuo laughed loudly and said scornfully: "Young lady, you should just embroider in the backyard and do some business. You just believe what others say and don't investigate. I ask you, why do I, Zhao Kuo, carry Do you make money? How good-looking are you?"
"I have no enmity with you! Why are you trying to trick me!!"
Jiang Fu almost collapsed. She had been struggling for so long, but it was all in vain?
"It's strange that your shop was too good at doing business before. It blocked the way of my Zhao family. I heard that the shop changed its owner, so I thought about giving it a try. Who would have thought that it would go so smoothly. The previous one was a human spirit, and now he is a Idiot, who wouldn’t want the opportunity to make a fortune in front of them?”
"I'm going to sue you! I'm going to sue you!"
Jiang Fu got up from the ground and ran out of the door. Unexpectedly, as soon as she ran out of the Zhao Mansion, she saw Qi Chengxu striding over.
Jiang Fu shuddered suddenly at the gloomy look on her face, biting her lower lip tightly.
He, he knew everything?
Qi Chengxu gritted his teeth and grabbed Jiang Fu's arm and dragged her into the carriage.
He kept a straight face all the way, regardless of how Jiang Fu tried to get close to her. When he returned to the Marquis Mansion and entered the main room, he said angrily:
"Jiang Fu! Can you grow your brain! Look what you have done?!"
"Listen to my explanation, A Xu. I was also deceived. I was deceived by that Zhao Kuo!"
Jiang Fu rushed forward and told the story, wiping her tears and said: "It was obviously the young lady who planted the cause of the disaster, but I am asked to bear the consequences!"
"You still have the nerve to say that! Don't you have any judgment ability yourself? Won't you check it out first?"
"Aren't I in a hurry...I want to hurry up and make my money back quickly."
"Ah."
Qi Chengxu sneered and sat down to calm down his anger. He was really exhausted both physically and mentally at this moment.
I'm so tired. Why have so many things happened just a few months after returning to the house? Ji Shu obviously managed the Hou Mansion in an orderly manner. Jiang Fu just had to follow her own way and arrange things in her own way. She had to seek death. .
Fortunately, it was Ji Shu who took over the charge of the Hou Mansion six years ago. If it were Jiang Fu...
Qi Chengxu's heart trembled and his eyebrows hardened.
"Brother Xu...Brother Xu, you won't be angry with me anymore, will you?"
Seeing his expression changing rapidly, Jiang Fu felt flustered and hurriedly knelt down in front of him, tentatively leaning on his knees.
Qi Chengxu calmly stood up, walked a few steps, and said after a while:
"Give me the account books in the house, the keys to the warehouse, and the cards."
"What do you mean, Second Master? Second Master, you don't want me to take care of the house?"
"You shouldn't be in charge of the house in the first place! My mother and grandmother are here, and even Ji Shu, the young lady, should not be in charge of anything."
Anyone can take care of it, but Jiang Fu can’t be in charge anymore, otherwise the family business will be ruined by her sooner or later!
"Second Master! Second Master, you can't do this! How do you want me to gain a foothold in the Hou Mansion in the future?"
Jiang Fu sat paralyzed on the ground, crying endlessly. She couldn't stand her identity. She was just a foster daughter, and everyone in the house was following her. Ji Shu was fine when he left for a long distance, but now she is here, and she still owes her husband A person's money, without the protection of the head of the family, would not be able to be squeezed to death!
"Second Master, I know I was wrong. I will learn from the young lady in the future and won't be so reckless again. Just give me another chance. For the sake of our past friendship and Brother Xing's face. "
Jiang Fu carefully pulled the hem of Qi Chengxu's clothes and sobbed softly:
"Brother Xing will be under the care of the young lady, and the middle-level servant will also be under the care of the young lady. In time, I will become a dispensable person...Brother Xing is very forgetful, and he may forget me one day. , I really take the young lady as my mother."
Her voice was not loud, but Qi Chengxu was still frightened when she said this here.
He looked around and shook off Jiang Fu's hand.
