Hope for luck

Chapter 168 One after another
Old Mrs. Gao suddenly disregarded friendship and wanted to have these butlers beat up, which made many servants a little horrified.

Now that the matter has come to this point, there must be no room for retention. Ding Lao and several Gao family stewards were dragged to the outer courtyard and severely beaten.

When everyone in the hall heard the miserable shouts outside, they all looked sideways, and Gao Qiyuan looked at Gao Pan with wide-eyed eyes.

He was just sitting in the yamen when he heard someone come to report that something happened at home, so he hurried back.

If not, Gao Nan must be among the people being beaten right now.

But after Gao Pan heard it, he felt very comfortable in his heart. Now the subordinates of the Gao family have reached the point where they don't know what's wrong if they don't fight.

This is especially the case with Ding Lao, whom he met during the high climbing period. He didn't treat him as a young master at all, but instead looked contemptuous.

That's why Gao Pan said such words, sensing that Gao Qiyuan was looking at him with wide-eyed eyes, Gao Pan was still very calm in his heart, thinking in his heart that this was just an appetizer.

However, regarding Gao Nan's matter, Gao Qiyuan actually admitted that he asked Gao Nan to do this, which surprised Gao Pan.

In this way, Gao Qiyuan raised a foreign room, not to mention saving his own money outside?
Thinking of this, Gao Pan first looked at Mrs. Ren's face, seeing that she looked a little pale at the moment, and suspected that it might be the first time she had heard of this.

Regardless of Gao Qiyuan's cannibalistic eyes at the moment, Gao Pan came to the hall and respectfully said to Mrs. Gao:
"Grandfather, there is one more thing my grandson wants to report!"

Mrs. Gao was closing her eyes at the moment, with a sullen expression on her face. When she heard that Gao Pan still had something to say, she opened her eyes instantly. Her sharp eyes seemed to see through Gao Pan.

Gao Pan, on the other hand, still stood there bowed, without a trace of fear, as if it was a battlefield in front of him. Facing the enemy's attack, Gao Pan did not show a trace of timidity, but was very firm and brave.

"Say!!"

After Mrs. Gao stared at Gao Pan for a long time, he said a word emphatically, which made everyone in the hall look at him again.

"Since the grandson's parents passed away, most of Wufang's servants have been dismissed, leaving only one loyal servant, Lu Rong. According to the rules of the family, the young master's monthly salary is two taels. If my grandson remembers correctly, from eight Since the year when I was [-] years old, my grandson has never seen the monthly money again, and I don’t know what the monthly money is, so my grandson dared to ask my grandfather, will Wufang leave the house in the future?”

Gao Pan's indifferent and quite calm words reached everyone's ears, and the hall fell into a brief dead silence again.

"Gao Pan, what do you mean by that? This is what you should ask? Your grandfather is still in good health, why does he stay out of the house? If you want to leave this house, just say so, and we will help you!"

After a while, Gao Qiyuan looked at Gao Pan sharply and said.

The old man Gao had a gloomy face and a pair of sharp blue eyes, staring directly at Gao Pan at the moment.

"Uncle, that's the truth. On the twentieth of last month, my nephew came home and went to Neifangtang. At that time, my uncle told me that my wife has her own ideas, so I don't need my nephew to ask. A few days ago, My nephew asks Uncle Rong to get the monthly money, but my wife shirks it with all kinds of reasons, is this how to manage the house properly and clearly manage the house?"

Gao Pan spoke very calmly, looking at the expressions of the crowd while speaking, seeing that Gao Qiyuan was speechless, he continued:
"Wufang is also a descendant of my grandfather. According to the rules, the public and the banker should also have a share. I just want to ask, where has the silver that Wufang should have gone for so many years? Also please uncle and wife, when Make it clear to your grandfather!"

As soon as the words fell, Mrs. Gao finally expressed his opinion:

"Boss, boss, daughter-in-law, how do you explain this?"

The frowning made Gao Qiyuan and his wife a little horrified, and they didn't know how to explain it for a moment.

But Gao Pan didn't intend to just let it go, then bowed and said:

"Grandfather, it's fine if the five houses and one house's silver are swallowed up. If you are afraid, the money of our Gao family will become someone else's. The property of our Gao family will become the Du family's property in a blink of an eye!"

These few words in Lang's voice made Mrs. Du, Gao Qiyao, and Gao Qibai's eyes flicker, looking at Gao Pan, as if waiting for his next words.

"what happened?!"

Old Mrs. Gao's tone was even more hostile, as if he could not hide his anger since he just beat up a few housekeepers.

"Back to grandfather, it's still Gao Nan. While he was doing things for my uncle, he also transferred our family's property for my aunt. After changing hands, he was replaced by someone from the Ren family. If my grandson didn't find out, I'm afraid no one would have known about it. Let's do it!"

Gao Pan still said lightly.

After hearing this, Mrs. Gao's face was full of anger, and she stared at Gao Qiyuan and his wife without saying a word, as if waiting for their own explanation.

Gao Qiyuan was also a little flustered at the moment, looked at Mrs. Ren beside him, and asked sternly:
"Stupid woman, I've already said it, why don't you explain it? So many people are watching! In front of your father, do you think there is anything else to hide?"

Mrs. Ren's complexion was already very pale, and her original grace and luxury have long since disappeared. She looks devastated at this moment, and she doesn't look like the daughter-in-law of the Duke's Mansion.

"Master, the concubine...the concubine did not..."

He hesitated and couldn't explain why, but Gao Pan pointed at Gao Nan and said:

"Uncle Nan, this is the end of the matter, why don't you fully explain it? Are you planning to be beaten to death like those people outside, so you want to speak out?"

At this moment, Gao Nan's heart had already set off a huge wave. After hearing Gao Pan's words, he knelt down on the ground in fright, and kowtowed his head suddenly. After a while, his forehead was already bleeding, but he didn't realize it.

"My lord, the villain knows his mistakes, it's all the villain's fault, it has nothing to do with the wife, it's all arranged by the villain himself!"

Seeing that Gao Nan risked his life to protect the owner, Gao Pan was a little surprised, but at the same time found it a little funny:

"Uncle Nan, don't you think that everyone is a fool, right? You can manage such a big jade store and grocery store by yourself?"

After Gao Nan heard this, he looked at Gao Pan in horror. After a long pause, he could only continue to kowtow, unable to say a word.

Seeing this, Mrs. Gao said in a low voice:
"Drag it, hit!"

Mrs. Ren was reprimanded by this body, trembling with fright, thinking that she was about to be beaten, and only after Gao Nan was dragged away by his servants did she breathe a sigh of relief.

"My lord, this matter can't be so easy anymore. The third brother has been in business for many years, and has never complained about anything. Sister-in-law is good. In a word, our family has become the Du family. It’s no wonder that she took her nephew here, I see, this is to let her nephew take over these properties, right?”

Madam Du knew that it was a good time to stab the knife, she would not let it go, so she stood up quickly and said softly.
