Chapter 518 The Song family never said such words!

Gong Er crossed his legs and complained lazily, "Hurry up, this is our Gong family's property, it's just a few hundred taels. Why are you taking so long?"

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Second Master, normally you come to withdraw a few taels or tens of taels, which is nothing, the boss has also told us. But now, you need to withdraw several hundred taels at once... Our store is a small business, and we settle the payment with the supplier every half a month. We just settled the payment two days ago, and there is not that much money in the account..."

Gong Er smashed the cup to the ground and said, "What the hell! What do you mean by your store? This is Gong's store. If there is no money in the account, go to another store to get it! Don't force me to smash this place!"

The waiter came over and whispered a few words in the shopkeeper's ear, and the shopkeeper's back straightened up a lot.

The shopkeeper coughed and said, "I'm really sorry, gentlemen. I just found out that the boss has just hired a manager to take care of all the accounts. I really can't make the decision here."

Gong Er frowned: "What the hell? Chief Steward? What chief steward?"

"I am such a big butler."

Yu Yongbai strode in and glanced coldly at Gong Er and Gong San.

When Gong Er saw Yu Yongbai, he sat up straighter and looked him up and down: "Who are you?!"

Yu Yongbai sneered: "Does the Yu family store know? Unfortunately, it is my family's business."

Gong Er's face changed color slightly.

If it were him, he would have also heard of Yu’s shop.

"You are just bragging!" Gong Er looked at Yu Yongbai with caution. "Since you are from the Yu family, why do you come to our Gong family's small shops and be a manager?"

Yu Yongbai had no good feelings towards the Gong family. He sneered, "Why not? I'm happy to do that! Second Master Gong wants to come to the shop to collect money again. Fine, bring the seal. These must be settled. Seal in one hand and money in the other. This is the rule for everyone."

Gong Er was shocked and doubtful: "Where is Gong Qingniang?! Ask her to come out!"

It would have been fine if Gong Er hadn't mentioned Gong Qingniang, but as soon as he mentioned Gong Qingniang, Yu Yongbai's face immediately darkened, and he looked like he was about to raise his fist to hit someone.

Xingxing ran over and grabbed Yu Yongbai's hand.

Gong Er looked Xing Xing up and down warily: "Who are you?"

Zhaoying, the maid beside Xingxing, immediately stepped forward majestically and shouted, "How dare you! This is Fusui Xiangjun! How dare you disrespect him?!"

The title of Xiangjun is very useful. In addition, Zhaoying has a stern face, which makes him look very majestic and even more intimidating.

"Xiang Jun..." Gong Er obviously believed it a little bit, and his attitude became a little frightened, but he still murmured, "Why did Xiang Jun come here again?"

When Xing Xing thought that the two people in front might be the ones who poisoned Sister Gong, her face turned unhappy and she said in a cold voice: "This is Hongo-kun's brother. Why did Hongo-kun come here? Of course, he came to support Hongo-kun's brother. When you come to the account to withdraw money, you should use one hand to check your seal and the other hand to take the money. Otherwise, anyone with the surname Gong can come to take the money. Isn't this a mess!"

Gong Er and Gong San looked at each other, realizing that they would not be able to get the silver today, and left reluctantly, preparing to confront Gong Qingniang when she returned home and ask her what she meant.

Yu Yongbai returned to Gong Qingniang and discussed with her: "You need to detoxify these days, so don't go back to Gong's house for the time being. My family has a few hot springs outside the city. You can go there to recuperate for a few days. I just told your employees about the matter in the shop. Just say that I am your newly appointed manager. If there is anything, I will help you pass it back and forth. Is that okay?"

Yu Yongbai was very thoughtful, and Gong Qingniang was not the kind of person who would put on airs, so she agreed directly and instructed him on a few important matters.

Yu Yongbai also nodded in agreement.

After the two men finished talking about business, they looked at each other in silence for a while.

Xing Xing looked at this, then looked at that, and she realized something. She slapped her head and said, "I remember now. Xu Ge wanted to eat the sesame candy cakes from East Street, and I said I would bring them to him!"

Xing Xing jumped up and ran out: "Second brother, Sister Gong, I have something to do, so I'll leave first!"

That runs faster than a rabbit!

Zhaoying hurriedly followed.

Suddenly, Yu Yongbai and Gong Qingniang were the only ones left in the room.

Gong Qingniang was not a shy girl. She took a deep breath and said to Yu Yongbai, "Boss Yu almost knows the situation in my family. I won't hide it from Boss Yu. It will only make Boss Yu think worse. So... Boss Yu, you can still regret what I said just now."

Gong Qingniang suppressed her thoughts, pretended to be nonchalant, and smiled calmly, "I can understand it all."

"Who do you think I am?" Yu Yongbai suppressed his heartache. He knew that a girl like Gong Qingniang did not need other people's sympathy.

Yu Yongbai pretended to be relaxed: "The situation in your family is nothing. I would be very lucky to marry an independent and strong woman like you... What I said before, giving you my private property as a dowry before marriage, was not false. I dare not even think about having a virtuous wife like Boss Gong, I don't know how easy it will be in the future!... Anyway, Boss Gong should think carefully about whether to get on my pirate ship or not."

Gong Qingniang's eyes sparkled. She tried hard to hold back her tears and smiled slightly: "Now that I've said this, it's too late to regret it!"

The two looked at each other, one smiled slightly, the other had tears in his eyes.

…

Xingxing came out of Gong's shop, was stunned for a while, and suddenly couldn't help laughing with her hands covering her face.

Judging from the looks of it, is she going to have a second sister-in-law?

Xingxing suddenly thought of Yu Yongliu again.

I just don’t know how my third brother’s marriage will turn out?

Ever since my third elder brother won the imperial examination, the doorstep of our house has been almost broken down. Of course, the most enthusiastic one was the family of the chief priest of the Imperial Academy who had been a guest there before.

When Xingxing returned home, Bai Xiaofeng had just seen off the wife of the chief priest, and they happened to meet at the second gate.

As soon as the guest left, Bai Xiaofeng's face immediately drooped. She was extremely unhappy. She held Xingxing's hand and complained: "...When you were not here today, I almost couldn't help but quarrel with that wife of the chief priest! If I wasn't worried that others would say that Brother Liu was so arrogant that he refused to recognize his master after he won the first place in the imperial examination, I really wanted to kick that wife of the chief priest out!"

Xing Xing was startled: "Second Auntie, what happened?"

Bai Xiaofeng said angrily, "What else can we do? We were just guests at the Jijiu's house before, and we didn't talk about marriage at that time. Today, they came to our house and asked us openly and secretly when we would come to propose marriage. I was stunned - that's fine! We haven't even started yet, and they're telling me that their family is a scholarly family, and the girl has been raised since she was a child. When she marries, your grandmother and I will take care of her."

"What's the matter? She hasn't even married into the family yet, but you're already acting pretentiously? Let's not talk about anything else. Your sister-in-law is a lady from the Su, Yang, and Song families. The Song family has never said such things!"
