No script time travel, the general helped me rise to the top
Chapter 109 Swallowed Gold
"Young Marquis, there is news from Lord Gao that the plan has failed."
The raindrops hit the banana leaves. Yuwen Bo looked at the gloomy sky outside the window. Thinking of the words that Miss Feng said at the Hairpin Flower Banquet, he couldn't help but feel worried and sad!
The personal guard who came to report saw him in a daze, and fearing that the news he brought made the young marquis extremely unhappy, he also stood with his hands clasped and dared not make any sound.
Until Yu Wenbo turned around and asked, "What did you just say?"
"In reply to the young marquis, Lord Gao said that the plan failed!", the personal guard said with a serious look, feeling uneasy as if he was afraid of being scolded.
"The Xue family is protected by their superiors. How could they be overthrown and have their property confiscated by such petty tricks? It's really wishful thinking!" This time, Yuwen Bo changed his usual violent temper. Although the incident was within his expectations, it was not the result they wanted after all.
Seeing that the young marquis was not too angry, the personal guard boldly added, "According to the old lady's opinion, we still hope that the young marquis can find a way to facilitate the marriage with Miss Xue Er as soon as possible."
"Snapped!"
The young marquis, who had just been silent and calm, smashed the jade teacup next to him to pieces again when he heard these words. This was the tenth cup he had broken in recent days.
Nanny Chang on the side quickly reprimanded the close guard and asked the maids to clean up the mess on the ground and serve tea again. She said in a kind tone, "Young Marquis, don't be angry with the old lady. If the young marquis doesn't want to, you can marry her and divorce her after the matter is settled. It's just a formality!"
"Marry?" Yuwen Bo thought of Xue Qingqing's dirty skin, and the disgusting look on his face as if he would get close to anyone he saw. "Then I might as well go to a brothel and find a prettier one!"
At her age, Madam Chang has naturally seen all kinds of things.
She only needed to take one look to know who Xue Qingqing was. A woman like that who didn't know the rules was not worthy of their young marquis, even if she was the daughter of the left prime minister.
But there is no other way. The old lady has received a letter, telling her not to touch the eldest daughter of the Xue family. If she wants to get Jia's dowry, then the second daughter is the only one left!
Nanny Chang watched the young marquis grow up, so she naturally felt sorry for the child, "Young marquis, just bear with it for a while, and when things are done, you will get whatever you want!"
Yuwen Bo lay down on the couch. The words "everything is available" immediately made Yangyang's delicate face appear in front of him. "Go and get ready! Tomorrow we will go to the Left Prime Minister's Mansion to propose marriage!"
"Young Marquis, isn't tomorrow a bit too hasty? Maybe we can choose a good time!" Since the young Marquis was persuaded so easily, Nanny Chang thought about being more cautious.
But the young marquis didn't care about these things, and the disgust on his face almost overflowed, "It's not that troublesome, it's just a formality, why waste time on that woman!"
Yangyang said goodbye to Tang Yuwei and returned to the Xue Mansion. In order to reassure the old lady, Yangyang gave her the banknote with the private seal that she got from Tang Yuwei.
The old lady took the bill and then she remembered that this bill was originally given by her to Jiang Shi. Now it almost became the evidence to kill her. "What a vicious woman, she even teamed up with others to deceive me!"
As soon as she raised her head, she saw Yangyang's harmless face again. She walked to Yangyang with a loving face and pulled Yangyang to sit down. She didn't know what she was thinking in her mind, "Good child, you have helped grandma so much, grandma naturally trusts you."
Yangyang knew that this sentence must be not simple, so he just smiled and waited for the old lady's next words.
"The deeds to the three shops have been handed over to you. What are your plans for going to the shops to take a look?"
Yangyang knew that the old lady never spoke lines without purpose.
Her first purpose in getting the land deed was to get some information from Ke.
As for the business of the shop itself, she didn't know anything about it, so she was not that anxious.
Because if the old lady wanted to use Yangyang, she would naturally find a way to tell her, and then it would not be too late for her to get involved and use the opponent's strength.
But Yangyang didn't expect the old lady to be so impatient, and it only took two days.
"Grandma, Yangyang just got the deed and is not particularly familiar with the business of the shop. I have been thinking about getting familiar with it before making preparations these days!"
Seeing that Yangyang was not in a hurry, the old lady became anxious herself.
Previously, she had thought of bribing the Fortune Department and having them help her get back the right to manage the shop, but now this path has reached a dead end. If she just sits there and watches Mr. Xue and his family prosper, sooner or later she will even lose the deed to the land.
But now that Yangyang has jumped out, doesn't it give her just the right help to deal with the Second Master's family? If not, when will she seize the opportunity?
The old lady held Yangyang's hand tightly and said with more expectation, "It is because you are not familiar with it that we have to get to know it early. You can go and take a look in the next few days!"
On the surface, it seemed like a suggestion, but more of it was to throw Yangyang out as a shield. How could Yangyang not hear it? She said in a stronger tone, "Grandmother, do you want Yangyang to ask Second Master for management rights?"
To this day, the old lady has not revealed why she let the second master take over all the management rights. If Yangyang can't even understand this clearly, how can he fight back?
Yangyang said this just because she wanted the old lady to tell the truth.
The old lady's expression changed and she laughed dryly twice, as if the truth was difficult for her to tell.
But if Yangyang really went to the shop, she would naturally learn something from the second master. It would be better for her to explain it clearly now.
"The Xue family's shop was originally earned by your grandfather, and Mr. Xue is just a freeloader, but..."
"Just what?" Yangyang asked.
The old lady sighed, and finally couldn't help but speak, "At the beginning of the year, your second master's family took in a concubine. The concubine is pretty and looks easy to raise, but your second master is inhumane, so this is just a waste of the girl!"
When Yangyang heard the old lady talking, he had a secret premonition that the old lady must have done something to embarrass everyone.
"I thought it would be a good idea to marry the concubine to your father! So I found a day to persuade the girl, and everything was ready. The sedan chair was also ready at the back door, waiting for her to get in."
When the old lady spoke of the urgent situation, her heart skipped a beat.
"But I found that she had swallowed gold and died in her room. She also left a letter saying that I forced her to do it. Tell me, what caused this incident?"
It was after this that the second master took the opportunity to seize the old lady's power. Even if the old lady didn't tell him what happened next, Yangyang could guess it.
This is not a plot by someone, so what?
I didn't expect that such a wise person like the old lady would be plotted against everywhere.
