Chapter 400 401. Angry
Jin Qianqian looked at Madam Huang in astonishment, "Don't you know, Madam, that the escort must be arranged according to the escort agency, or must reserve a position in advance?"
Madam Huang naturally knew this in her heart, but her brother was temporarily driven out of the house by the master, and she had no time to reserve a place.
The reason she was able to suddenly squeeze people into the escort team was because she relied on her status as a first-rank lady in the current dynasty to force them to join, so naturally she didn't get a good position reserved for them.
The journey back was long and difficult, and she was afraid that something might happen to her brothers along the way, so she wanted to be closer to the escort so that she could take care of them.
I thought he was just occupying the position of an ordinary citizen, but I didn't expect him to be such a nemesis.
To be honest, she is really a little scared of Gu Jin, who is the kind of person who can make people suffer at any time and anywhere.
Take the dowry shops owned by my granddaughter-in-law, and later the shops on which my family depended for survival. They were just a thought of others, and I couldn't afford them.
Think about the concubine of the Xiao family who has been imprisoned. This is all the work of the ruthless man in front of him.
Another reason that made her hesitate to use her status to pressure others was that she didn't know how many handles this person had in the mansion.
"Since you decided first, I will ask my brother to give up the position." After weighing the pros and cons, Madam Huang was still unwilling to take the risk.
Ever since she spread those rumors against Gu Jinshi last time, the Empress Dowager and several government offices have sent people to warn her. Even if she was stupid, she knew that the two people in front of her were not as simple as they seemed.
Over the years, she had worked her way up from the wife of a minor official to her current position as a first-rank official. She had not yet enjoyed a few years of happiness and was unwilling to go back to her old days.
"Sister, why?" The skinny old woman wanted to say something, but was caught by a pair of hands again.
At this time, the woman's voice could be heard faintly, "You are just a commoner. Even your sister can't do anything about it. Why are you talking so much?"
"Old lady, I just want us to be safer on the way back. My sister prepared so many valuables for me. If someone gets greedy for them, we will suffer a great loss."
"Just shut up. There was nothing wrong, but you ruined it with your stinky mouth.
If you hadn't been talking nonsense, my brother-in-law would have chased us back. And don't look at me randomly. Don't think I don't know that you went to see that young lady again..."
…
Madam Huang also felt humiliated and shouted at the servant driving the carriage, "Quickly get out of the way. I will ask the escort leader to make new arrangements for you.
I think the escort leader will give you a good position for the sake of our Huang Mansion."
Since the Gu couple could not be offended, she turned her target to Li Biaotou.
Li Biaotou smiled bitterly, opened the notebook he carried with him, and after careful selection, he could only insert it in the middle and rear.
Mrs. Huang was still a little dissatisfied, and Li Biaotou said helplessly, "Some of them are relatives of ours, and some are our long-term customers, so there is no way to change them.
If Madam Huang minds, why don’t we reschedule the meeting? We will make sure everything is arranged by then.”
Madam Huang faced everyone's gazes and gritted her teeth and said, "Then listen to the escort leader. But you have to help me send them back home safely. Otherwise, even if your background is strong, I am not afraid of you."
Jin Qianqian: "..." It would be better not to add the last sentence. Li Biaotou's face was frozen.
I thought the matter would just pass like this, but who knew that the old lady would turn around and look at Gu Wenheng with contempt before entering the carriage.
"Master Gu, sometimes you should show your demeanor as a master. Otherwise, how can you live up to your parents' teachings? They worked so hard to train you to be a talent, but you didn't expect that you would benefit others."
"There's no need for Madam Huang to worry about this," Li Cuicui, who had been lifting a corner of the curtain and watching coldly, could no longer bear it.
"My sons are the most filial. My old man and I have no objections. I didn't expect that it would offend outsiders."
Madam Huang looked at Li Cuicui curiously, "Are you Madam Gu? Master Gu has been an official in the capital for so long, but he hasn't brought you over yet. Everyone is talking about it, why don't you come over to enjoy the good life with him?"
Li Cuicui had also heard some gossip these days, but seeing that Lao Qi and his wife didn't take it seriously, she was too lazy to get involved.
But now that people have come to her face, she can't help but fight for her child, "This is all my fault. In the early years, I gave birth to seven boys and a girl.
The children in this family are filial and all of them compete to take care of me. It's a pity that the old lady has worried about them all her life and she also wants to live a few years of peace and stability.
I just want to live a free and easy life, Madam Huang, do you think what I said makes sense?
As a woman, we have worked hard all our lives. Now that we have the conditions, we should treat ourselves better. "
Gu Yuanshui also poked his head out and shouted at Li Cuicui, "Mom, as the fourth child, I haven't even had a turn to support you. How can my seventh brother and his brothers compete with us brothers for this?"
Old Madam Huang could see that the other party was showing off, and she cursed in her heart, thinking that this family was only good with their mouths.
His face showed a surprised expression, "Then you are really a hero of the Gu family, and you have made great achievements.
But there are only two children in the Gu family. Isn't it a little too little for Master Gu? You, as a mother-in-law, don't worry about it. This is not acceptable."
Li Cuicui smiled, but her eyes stared at her coldly, "It seems that the old lady's situation in her mansion should be very good. I think she has many children and grandchildren, and a lot of concubines and sons.
I, an old lady, would like to have as many descendants as possible, but unfortunately the Gu family rules do not allow it. My Gu family descendants do not have the blessing of having a wife and a son. "
Only then did Old Madam Huang remember what she had heard from someone before: the family rules of this Gu family were really weird, and were particularly harsh on the children of the family.
She wanted to say something back, but it seemed like nothing she could say would be appropriate.
"Mom," Jin Qianqian came over and looked at the old lady, "It's so cold outside, you should go inside to warm up.
Besides, we are family and we know our own business, so it is inevitable that Madam Huang may have some misunderstandings about us."
There was a vacant space in the carriage over there, and the coachman led the horse to the position that should have belonged to them.
Old Madam Huang saw that her brother's carriage was already moving backwards and could only ask someone to follow.
She would have time to deal with these people later, but her brother must be very upset about being humiliated. She had to go over and keep an eye on him to prevent these tactless escorts from putting him at the back of the team.
