Chapter 219 The Frustrated Duke


0

Seeing that the two people had almost finished arguing, Qiao Yunting took the initiative to step forward and play the good guy, redirecting the topic.

If he didn't speak up, Marquis Xiaoyao and Duke Zhenguo would reveal on the spot how old each other was when they wet the bed. If they regretted it afterwards, no one present would be in a good situation.

"My Lords, I have official duties to attend to and do not have much time to argue with you. If you do not agree with my nephew's suggestion, I will have no choice but to send them to the government office and enforce the law.

We in the Qiao family are not short of a few taels of silver, but for the sake of Lieutenant General Yuan, we are giving everyone a chance to reform.

Since you don't want them, I won't be sentimental. Come, drag them out and give them 20 strokes of the cane, then hand them over to the government for punishment."

"No, no, no, General, calm down. It's better to resolve a feud than to create one. It's not that we don't like it, but we need to discuss it. You see, we came here in a hurry and are not well prepared. Can you give us a little more time?"

Qiao Yunting looked at him, sneered, and said nothing more.

At this time, the chief guard of the King of Qi came down from the second floor and said, "General, your Highness is leaving first. I ask you to report to the palace as soon as possible!"

"Well, I know!"

The people who had been arguing fiercely just now suddenly woke up.

Well, this time it’s impossible for them to keep their family scandal secret. If the King of Qi knows about it, is there any difference between that and if Your Majesty knows about it?

Everyone knows that the King of Qi is your majesty's mouthpiece and weather vane outside the court. Your majesty's younger brother has always followed his lead.

The backyard was silent, and the originally strong back of the Duke of Zhenguo collapsed. When he opened his eyes again, everything was clear.

"General, we will do this according to your wishes. Please show some mercy!"

"Don't worry, Duke. This matter ends here. In view of Vice General Yuan's plea, my Qiao family will not pursue the matter any further and will not do it again."

Yuan Jinzhou did not appreciate it and subconsciously retorted: "Who cares? Who knows what he is thinking?"

"Shut up, you bastard!"

Qiao Yunting looked at him with a smile: "Parents are unfair, brothers are not harmonious, what A-niang said is indeed right, drowning a child is like killing him, the Duke should take good care of his darling in the future, after all, he can't be so lucky every time!"

Yuan Jinhong didn't expect that Qiao Yunting would actually stand up for him.

Isn't the situation in his own family just as he said, the elders acted unfairly, which led to Yuan Jinzhou's lawless behavior!

In the past, when he got into trouble outside, his father would at most give him a mild scolding and always told him that he would become sensible when he grew up!

He is old enough to be a father now, and although he seems to be sensible in other aspects, his ability to get into trouble is growing along with his age.

He and his elder brother were tired of cleaning up each other's messes. If they hadn't retained some restraint in their hearts, the two brothers would have wanted to cut Yuan Jinzhou into pieces.

To be honest, Qiao Yunting is only a few years older than the people who were causing trouble, but now he holds great power and occupies a high position. This makes many arrogant children from wealthy families envious and jealous!

This was the first time that the Duke of Zhenguo had formally dealt with Qiao Yunting. The young man in front of him was full of saintly spirit, but not arrogant or impatient. He was calm and dignified, and had a faint aura of a great general.

Such good children are all from the Qiao family. When I think about Qiao Yunqing, who I used to live with, he is also talented and a child of destiny.

The ancestor of the Qiao family is really good at educating children.

I heard that Qingyang Academy will be managed by the Qiao family in the future. Should we send a few of our grandchildren over there?

The Duke of Zhenguo sat there with a lot of thoughts in his mind, while Butler Yu had already made the handover with everyone as quickly as possible.

The servants and maids brought by each mansion have already started cleaning, and later they will send their own craftsmen to repair the damaged areas, and try to restore everything to its original state within three days.

What’s troubling them right now is these broken pots and pans; they can’t find identical ones!

Qiao Erlang escorted Song Yaotou, who was resting in the back room, to the stewards.

"Go find him. All the basins and bowls in my house are custom made from him. He is the only one who can make them exactly the same."

Song Yaotou didn't expect that during his trip, he would not only have enough food and drink and a good rest, but also receive such a big business order from his boss before leaving.

"Just pay the full amount in one go, and then Songyaotou will deliver the goods directly to me. You don't have to worry about the rest."

Qiao Sanlang gave him a look and made a gesture to him. Song Yaotou understood immediately that this was for him to quote an extra ten cents.

After all, this opportunity is rare. With the Qiao family supporting him, he just needs to do as he is told. With such a good opportunity in front of him, he has to bite off a piece of meat from the other party.

Don't underestimate these ten cents. The other party has done some damage. The thousand bowls and chopsticks on the west cabinet are now a pile of broken porcelain pieces. These all need to be re-fired.

Even though they have stock, they still have to pretend to have it, right?

He had every reason to suspect that the young boss had probably known that his gang was going to do something bad, so he placed these fragile things in such a conspicuous place.

When the butler of Beppu asked about the price, Song Yaotou, with a silly face, showed an honest attitude. He trembled and stretched out five fingers, holding it in for a long time: "Five... five..."

"Fifty-one, right? Fine, you can first make 10 taels of silver worth of goods and send them over. If it's not enough, we can make up for it later. Is that okay with you, young master?"
