Marry a concubine? Reborn to move out of the mansion and marry a general
Chapter 173: Private Thoughts
Huang Mazi cried bitterly, his face full of regret.
It was only then that Gu Feiwan put away the indifference on his face, and a hint of coldness appeared in his eyes:
"Your plan is good. I'm young and new here, so it's natural for you to worry about me. But if the Gu family wants to go long-term, a change in leadership is inevitable. But how to safely get through this transition period depends on the support of all the big shopkeepers."
"I'm a woman, so it's normal for Manager Huang to look down on me. But there are thousands of ways to test me, but you are the only one who is committing a big taboo by pushing the Peng family into the fire pit!"
"Speaking of which, you are the head shopkeeper, so you can control Peng Liuzi as you please. But have you ever thought that you and Peng Liuzi are just like you and me? If I push you out just for my own selfish motives and cause your family to be destroyed, what would you think? Would you still recognize me as your boss?"
Huang Mazi's face was filled with shame, and he didn't dare to look up at Gu Feiwan!
"Today, I will also make it clear to you. I have known your intentions for a long time. I originally wanted to tell you that Sheng Yanhua would not let the Peng family go. After I came to Wuzhou, Sheng Yanhua would only become more anxious. But you pushed Peng Liuzi in front of me, and when you saw that I did not make any big moves, you passed the news of closing the shop to the Sheng family. Do you know that Sheng Yanhua wanted Peng Liuzi's life from the beginning!"
Huang Mazi raised his head suddenly, his red eyes full of panic:
"No, the Sheng family said that they only want the shop. As long as they get the shop, they will never embarrass Peng Liuzi again! It was after hearing this that I dared to say something to them, but I really didn't know that Sheng Yanhua actually came to our house to search the house and arrest people. Girl, I really didn't know!"
"Yes, you don't know, but this light-hearted remark involves two lives! To put it in a bigger picture, the Peng family is extinct because of you!"
Gu Feiwan's words were so powerful that Huang Mazi felt as if his bones had been pulled out. His waist went limp and he collapsed to the ground.
"Who is Sheng Yanhua? How dare you believe his words? He has killed more people than the rice in your bowl!" Gu Feiwan's face was gloomy. Although he was young, he had a kind of pressure accumulated over the years:
"You think you have done it well, even hiding it from your four godchildren, but there is no such thing as a wall that is impenetrable. If this disaster happens, how will you deal with it? How will the shopkeepers in the 32 cities of Jiangnan look at you? Do you want to keep the reputation you have accumulated for most of your life?"
Gu Feiwan finished all this in one breath before retracting his body, leaning back against the chair, and letting out a long breath:
"When the time comes, even if you commit suicide to apologize, someone will spit on your grave!"
"Girl, I was really wrong! I was wrong!"
Huang Mazi burst into tears like a child who had made a mistake and was being taught a lesson.
"You are a member of my Gu family. If you make a mistake, it is my Gu family that has made a mistake. If you let the Peng family down, it is the Gu family that has let the Peng family down. I will handle the rest of the matter, so don't interfere."
"Yes, I'll listen to you, young lady!" Huang Mazi wiped his face and said, "I feel so sorry for the Gu family. I can't bear to be the head shopkeeper of Jiangnan anymore. I..."
Before he could finish his words, Gu Feiwan interrupted him: "You still have to be the head shopkeeper of Jiangnan, and you have to do it more diligently!"
Huang Mazi looked incredulous, but Gu Feiwan's words later put him at ease: "However, you are getting older, and someone has to take over from you. Qinglin has been with me since she was a child, and she is very good at accounting. I will keep her by your side for a few days. Please help me see if she is capable of standing on her own feet."
Huang Mazi nodded subconsciously: "Everything will be fine for the people around the girl."
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Gu Feiwan was not happy at all. Instead, his face turned stern and he became angry!
"If Manager Huang keeps talking like this, I really can't use you anymore!"
"Girl..." Huang Mazi was anxious and moved his knees to take a few steps closer, but he had been kneeling for too long and his knees were numb as he was old. In a hurry, he threw himself forward!
Just as the old man was about to hit the ground, someone held him steady: "I'll have to trouble Manager Huang to give me more guidance in the future!"
Huang Mazi managed to hold up his body with some effort, and then he could see clearly that the person in front of him was Qinglin that Gu Feiwan had just mentioned.
"As I should. We are all working for the boss. I will definitely teach Miss Qinglin everything I have learned without reservation!"
"Then I, the disciple, will pay my respects to the master first!" Qinglin bowed solemnly.
Huang Mazi subconsciously wanted to stop him, but Gu Feiwan's angry expression suddenly flashed in his mind. He immediately lowered his outstretched hand and obediently accepted Qinglin's greeting:
"Hurry up and get up. From now on, the 32 cities in Jiangnan will rely on you to guard the gate for the boss. You must study hard and learn well!" Huang Mazi, like a master, gave a solemn instruction.
Seeing this, Gu Feiwan smiled and said, "Please take good care of me in the future, Manager Huang. But if this girl is not worthy of being used, you should tell me as soon as possible. The Gu family's business is the most important thing, and there can be no favoritism."
"Of course, I didn't need to do that!" Huang Mazi was really helped up this time.
He sat down panting, wiped the sweat from his forehead and the tears from the corners of his eyes, knowing that he had finally passed this level without any danger!
But for a long time afterwards, whenever he thought of Gu Feiwan's methods, his knees would ache and his back would feel cold!
After the matter was settled and Huang Mazi was sent away, the mother and son of the Peng family sent someone to report, saying that they had discussed it and everything would be decided by Gu Feiwan!
Gu Feiwan asked someone to invite the mother and son to the study. She had been busy all day and was too lazy to move around.
"Girl, this is freshly cooked bird's nest porridge. You haven't eaten much for most of the day, so have a bowl first." Qinglin advised as he brought a bowl of bird's nest porridge.
After hearing this, Gu Feiwan realized that he was really hungry!
The bird's nest porridge that usually seems bland tastes surprisingly sweet when you drink it now!
"It's true that you eat when you're hungry!" Gu Feiwan said with emotion.
Peng Liuzi, who was still half lying down, swallowed his saliva with a gulp.
Mother Peng covered her stomach and seemed to be getting hungry from the bird's nest porridge.
"You guys also scoop two bowls to drink from." Gu Feiwan pointed to the large bowl on the side.
Peng's mother waved her hands quickly: "This is too valuable, you can't use it!"
Peng Liuzi said in a hoarse voice: "Mother, the boss asked us to scoop some water to drink, so you go and scoop a bowl for me too."
Only then did Gu Feiwan look directly at Peng Liuzi, with the corners of his mouth raised!
She knew that Peng Liuzi had been stuck in a dead end for half his life, and after experiencing a catastrophe, he woke up completely transformed and realized that he was definitely not a stupid person!
Peng's mother scooped two bowls of bird's nest porridge with trembling hands, fed one bowl to Peng Liuzi first, then quickly drank one bowl herself. Finally, she put the bowls down and knelt beside Peng Liuzi in an orderly manner.
