Chapter 434: If You Guess, Don’t Say Anything
Mr. Qi was really furious.
Old Qi looked at Sang Zhixia in front of him, as if he saw Qi Yan'er who was stubborn and confused many years ago. He was so angry that his beard was shaking and his hands and feet were numb. He wished he could pry open Sang Zhixia's head on the spot to see what was inside.
Sang Zhixia just pretended to be naive and submissive, and no matter how much he preached, he believed that Xu Yu was a good person. He looked like a frost-bitten eggplant, with a look of resignation on his face, and hung his head to let him preach.
There were constant roars of anger in the house, mixed with the loud noise of Old Qi slamming the table. The noise was so loud that it could not be suppressed at all, and people outside could hear it clearly.
Bai Ziqing looked at Xu Yu, whose face was dark, with an indescribable expression, and said delicately, "Did you hear that?"
"Don't ever do anything treacherous or betrayal again, or the first person in this room will tear your head off."
Bai Ziqing knew the situation of the Sang family.
Sang Zhixia was indeed not lying. She had a low status in the Sang family and could not find anyone reliable in her family.
But the old man Qi who was eager to buy private property for Sang Zhixia was different.
With Mr. Qi's ruthless methods, Xu Yu would probably die without even a complete bone left.
Xu Yu's scalp tingled with venomous speculation. He gritted his teeth, unable to bear it any longer: "Who said I would do that?"
Bai Ziqing raised his chin irresponsibly and said jokingly, "The one in the room said so."
"No matter what, this trick is quite useful. With a hungry wolf like you by my sister's side who may need constant attention, that person will be worried for a thousand days and probably can't bear to commit suicide."
Otherwise, if Sang Zhixia really followed in Qi Yan'er's footsteps, even if Old Qi was dead, he would probably be so angry that he would fly out of his coffin.
That's truly dying with eyes open.
Xu Yu hadn't expected that the boomerang he had thrown would end up landing on him. Feeling powerless, he closed his eyes and said tiredly, "Whatever."
The explanation doesn't make sense.
You can say whatever you like.
Xu Yu was too lazy to cause himself more trouble, so he left Bai Ziqing and went out to deal with the farm.
Bai Ziqing laughed and said, "Don't you want to listen more?"
"Have you ever heard anyone scold me?"
Xu Yu rolled his eyes at Bai Ziqing, waved his hand, and said, "Zhizhi and I are leaving at the end of the month. Do you want to help with the farm?"
Bai Ziqing touched his chin and said nothing.
Xu Yu said calmly, "The farm belongs to my wife. If you're interested, you can tell her in advance."
Agriculture in Shu had been abandoned for too long, and everything was in a state of revival.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that if the farm planned by Sang Zhixia was successfully implemented, the benefits would be endless.
As long as you get on the farm car now, you don't have to think too much about the journey ahead, and when the right day comes, you will have money in your pocket.
No one will complain about having too much money in their pocket.
Bai Ziqing said cryptically, "Since you said it's not your property, how can your words be effective?"
"So I didn't ask you to ask?"
Xu Yu walked away, saying casually, "Zhizhi asked me to ask you."
"If you're interested, she can allocate a suitable area for you as a reward for your help this time."
Bai Ziqing said with a smile: "I just lent a hand and didn't help much."
"But I do have something to ask you."
Bai Ziqing took a few steps forward, hooked his arm around Xu Yu's shoulder, and squinted his eyes playfully as he asked, "Do you really want your sister to help me, your needy, underprivileged younger brother, and help me earn some extra pocket money, or do you really want to tie me down to the Xu family's ways?"
"Xu Yu, when Zhao Zhongquan and his men arrive in the capital, there will be a lot of chaos. You..."
"If you've guessed it, don't say anything."
Xu Yu glanced at Bai Ziqing with a half-smile in his face, and said sarcastically, "If you weren't worried that the Bai family would eventually follow in the footsteps of the Xu family, why would you and Bai Ziyu have gone to all this trouble all these years?"
"Are the two legitimate sons of the Duke's Mansion so short of money?"
Bai Ziyu was a useless person in the Duke's Mansion, receiving a meager salary.
Although Bai Ziqing had achieved fame and success at a young age, he had been wandering around for years and his whereabouts were unknown. He always told others that he was living a life of extravagant eating and drinking. In any case, he could be a fool or a scoundrel, but he was definitely not a talented person.
It has come to this, it would be unbecoming to tell everything.
Bai Ziqing stared at Xu Yu, laughing silently. He sighed helplessly and said, "The world is like this. There's nothing we can do about it."
"The Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace is not a tolerant person. If he ascends the throne in the future, the Bai family will be exiled at best and executed at worst. If we are not confused, who else would be?"
A flash of sarcasm passed through Xu Yu's eyes.
Bai Ziqing bumped his arm around Xu Yu's waist, and when Xu Yu frowned, he smiled and said, "When you see Jiang Yubai again, remember to say hello to Ziyu and me."
Xu Yu's eyes were complex and playful, "Can you make a decision so quickly?"
"What else do you think, Brother Xu?"
Bai Ziqing shook his head with a look of disappointment, and said with a sigh, "As long as the current emperor is still alive, your family has the blessing of exile."
"When the day comes when the guillotine falls on the Bai family, they may no longer have such good fortune."
This concerns the lives of the entire family, young and old. How can we hesitate?
Xu Yu nodded to indicate that he understood. He took a few steps forward and suddenly said, "It doesn't necessarily mean we've really reached that point."
"Zhao Zhongquan and the others haven't arrived yet. How can we know if our wish will be fulfilled?"
Bai Ziqing thought he was just hearing a joke. He pointed at Xu Yu's face with great amusement and said, "You don't even believe this yourself, so why bother telling me that to fool me?"
If Xu Yu was really 100% sure, his attitude towards Qianyuan Villa would not be what it is now.
If he was a loyal minister with an iron will, he should have taken action when he knew why Qianyuan Villa existed, instead of just watching coldly as if it had nothing to do with him.
What Xu Yu was weighing was also what Bai Ziqing was waiting for.
There was no need to elaborate on what both of them knew. Amidst Qi Lao's increasingly angry voice, Bai Ziqing waved at Xu Yu, "Go ahead."
"When you're done, I'll talk to my sister about the farm. I'm waiting for you and my sister to take me to get some money."
Xu Yu sneered and walked away.
Bai Ziqing turned around and glanced at where Sang Zhixia was, his eyes full of interest in watching a good show.
This old man is really difficult to deal with, and he is instinctively prejudiced against people who are suspected to be his son-in-law. He is a thorn in the side.
This guy doesn't want to die, and he still treats Sang Zhixia like his own flesh and blood. There will be a lot of fun to be had from Xu Yu in the future...
Let’s watch the show begin.
Bai Ziqing left in a good mood and leisurely. In the room, Sang Zhixia felt that her ears were almost deafened.
Under Qi Lao's glare that could nearly burn someone to death, Sang Zhixia puffed out her cheeks and exhaled fearfully. She quickly stood up and poured the water, handing it over with both hands: "Don't be upset for now, your health is more important."
"I heard everything you said, and I will learn from you."
"Drink some water, don't be in a hurry."
Old Qi took the teacup and laughed in anger: "I heard it, but how much did you remember?"
Sang Zhixia's face was blank and she didn't dare to respond.
Mr. Qi closed his eyes tiredly and gritted his teeth: "You wait."
"Once I have sorted out what happened outside, I will tell you slowly!"
