Chapter 410: Lord Bai Instructs Yunhe
If I don't do something, the rumors will only get worse, and things will get even more out of control. Now only Pei Rongjin can take action. If I let it go, Pei Canghai, the thousand-year-old fox, will also be restless.
Pei Canghai really treats Miss Hua and her brother as his own granddaughter and grandson. In this respect, I am indeed not as good as him.
However, Miss Hua is worth it, and the Zhenbei Marquisate did not suffer any loss at all, but on the contrary, gained a lot of advantages. Therefore, what I am doing now is actually giving an explanation to the Zhenbei Marquisate.
It was my own fault for not supervising and not disciplining the people in the Marquis' Mansion. I also didn't take this matter seriously at the beginning." Lord Bai's face also looked a little bad.
Seeing Bai Yunhe's face full of doubt, Lord Bai began to sigh and shook his head at Bai Yunhe, saying, "You are still not up to the task. You are definitely not as smart as that Pei family kid."
"What did Pei Rongjin do?" Bai Yunhe asked.
"Years ago, your sisters-in-law's dowry shops all had problems, you know that. Yunshan's wife's restaurant was unwilling to pay compensation for a customer's stomach upset, and they blamed each other, which led to the fact that the restaurant underpaid taxes. In the end, your sister-in-law had to make up for three years of taxes.
Your second sister-in-law's pastry shop is in a similar situation, right? And your third sister-in-law's powder and rouge shop, did she also receive three years of tax relief?
Only your fourth and fifth sister-in-law's shops were not damaged. Do you think it was a coincidence? I have said before that too many coincidences mean that someone has planned ahead of time. "Old Marquis Bai sighed again.
"Is Pei Rongjin so insidious?" Bai Yunhe said in disbelief.
"Insidious? Do you think it is insidious? He is just repaying in kind. He is directly returning the favor to your sisters-in-law for their comments that Miss Hua violated the commercial laws of the Great Sheng Dynasty.
They all relied on their natal families, the Marquis' Mansion, and the dowry shop, and paid less taxes, both openly and secretly.
Since they said that Miss Hua violated business laws, Pei Rongjin directly threw the law in their faces and let them see for themselves whether they had abided by the laws of the Great Sheng Dynasty and what was wrong.
Moreover, he did not make up stories without any basis, or deliberately frame someone. What was so sinister about that? Why, you are allowed to make up stories and gossip, but he is not allowed to fight back.
He was merciful in that he only picked out a few shops of your sisters-in-law with average performance. Otherwise, your sisters-in-law would have suffered even greater losses.
Besides, he didn't harm innocent people. Your fourth and fifth sisters-in-law, as well as the shops in our mansion, didn't encounter any problems. "Old Marquis Bai sighed again and picked up the teacup.
"But he is a man. It's a bit immoral for him to attack a woman, right?" Bai Yunhe said with a bit of contempt.
"Attacked a woman? Did he scold your sister-in-law, or hit her? Idiot, I won't tell you, do you know he did it? Do you know he did it himself? Without asking anyone else to do it? Even if he instructed, can you find evidence that he instructed?
If men really can't attack women, then the Great Sheng Dynasty should let women go to the battlefield. No enemy would dare to attack them, and the Great Sheng Dynasty could win without fighting. " Lord Bai, who had originally lowered his voice, was so angry that he couldn't help but raise his voice again.
"Grandfather, you already know it. If you know it, then we all know it," Bai Yunhe said confidently.
"This is what I'm most worried about. Back then, your father and your two uncles, the three brothers, joined forces but couldn't defeat Pei Jingyang. Now it's the same again. You and the Yunshan brothers joined forces, but you still can't defeat Pei Rongjin."
Lord Bai couldn't help but sigh again. Why do I always feel that my family is full of talented people, but when it comes to using them, no one can show off?
"Anyway, I think it was wrong for Pei Rongjin to attack secretly. How can a man attack a woman? It's too ungraceful." Bai Yunhe said unconvinced.
"You have grace? If you have grace, then you should hand over all the money you earn from the wool sweater business to the public treasury, and don't keep a single cent.
This way, your sisters-in-law and your mother will be satisfied, there will be no conflicts in the family, and I will be free and happy. Then, I will admit that you are graceful. "The old Marquis Bai shouted.
"No, Grandfather, I need this to marry a beautiful woman..."
"Shut up. Stop thinking about these nonsense. It's useless. Let me tell you, do you think Miss Hua didn't hear these rumors? Do you think she heard them but couldn't guess where they came from?
"She knows that it came from Dingxi Marquis' Mansion. Do you think she will still be attracted to a fool like you? Do you think you are a tiger? Miss Hua will go to Dingxi Marquis' Mansion, the tiger's den, just for you?"
Before Bai Yunhe could finish his words, Lord Bai interrupted him and asked him a series of questions, which confused Bai Yunhe.
Looking at his grandson with some disappointment, Lord Bai started stabbing him again.
"Do you think that if you help Miss Hua with a few shovels and hoes, Miss Hua will be attracted to you? If you help Miss Hua with a bunch of bamboo bowls and chopsticks, Miss Hua will marry you? What a joke.
Whatever you can give to Miss Hua, Miss Hua doesn't even need to raise her little finger, Pei Rongjin can help her settle it in minutes, do you believe it?
Even if Pei Rongjin didn't help her, she could handle it herself. At most, she would have to spend more manpower and money. Are these Miss Huas in need? No, they are not."
If Lord Bai, the expert in stabbing people, is ranked second, no one dares to claim to be first.
"Grandfather, that's not what I meant. I didn't say that I wanted Miss Hua to marry me just because I wanted to help her dig a few shovels and hoes. I really like her. Grandfather..."
"Forget it, your love is too cheap. What else can you do besides talking? How can you have the nerve to say you love someone who will only bring her waste and misfortune?
There is a saying that goes like this! A good marriage makes both parties successful, while a bad marriage consumes both parties. Miss Hua can indeed make you successful, but you are the bad person who consumes Miss Hua. So, you should stop harming Miss Hua. "Lord Bai's knife is really fast, fierce and accurate.
"Grandfather, please help me." Bai Yunhe pleaded.
“Forget it. I really wanted to help you once, which is why I agreed to let you and Miss Hua go together in the sweater business.
Because I really hope that Miss Hua can be my granddaughter-in-law, but I didn't know that you are such a hopeless person, who is more likely to cause trouble than to help.
So you should just give up on this idea and stop thinking about Miss Hua."
