"Chen Shang, don't be too arrogant!" Mrs. Zheng was so angry that her beard and hair stood on end, the veins on her forehead popped out, and the whites of her eyes were bloodshot. She pointed her halberd at Chen Yue and cursed fiercely. . Or directly enter it. Today, under the power of her husband, she can hold her nose and endure any resentment. She knows that her husband must have an agenda, but now she actually wants her son to serve tea with a maidservant. There is no such thing in the world!
Which one is intolerable?
"Chen Yue, don't be so shameless!" Zheng was almost crazy and was about to rush over to fight Chen Yue. Fortunately, she was stopped by the people around her.
Chen Bian's face was livid. If Chen Yu had just served a bowl of tea, it would be nothing, and he could gain a reputation for admitting his mistakes. However, Chen Yue's request to serve tea with his maid Rong Xiang had no meaning in this strict hierarchical society. completely different. This is almost like treating Chen Yu as a servant. How can he, a father, endure it? It was the second wife who offered tea to apologize, and he had agreed first. From a logical point of view, Chen Yu, the young master, had admitted his mistake and apologized. Naturally, Rongxiang could not avoid the punishment. He had made enough gestures before. At this time It's not easy to get angry. The third brother's son is really cruel.
Chen Yue kept the smile on his face, turning a deaf ear to Zheng's scolding. He glanced at Chen Bian, and finally his eyes rested on Chen Yu.
He is not afraid of quarreling with his second wife, he only wishes that things will get into a big mess. The relationship with Chen Yu of the Zheng family was already dead. If he goes to the woman's benevolence at this time, he will only suffer the consequences. If there is a big mess, I am not afraid that the people in the second room will play any tricks in the future. If anything happens in the future, it will all be blamed on them and they will not be able to wash it off. It is equivalent to giving themselves an insurance. Moreover, it is not difficult to guess the reason why Chen Bian came back. The businessman was very profitable. It could not be that he wanted to come back to show his favor to him because of his sudden talent. It was just that he had heard some rumors in Hualu. This is not surprising. He had no one available at the beginning, so Luo Liang and Gong Fu were temporarily hired from the housekeeper Chen Fu. Hualu's workshop was in the courtyard of the Chen family, so it was expected that something would be revealed, but I didn't expect that Chen Bian, who was far away from home, would be the first to get the news.
In Chen Yue's eyes, the key to breaking the situation lies with Chen Yu. If he really goes to serve tea, he will become the wrong party. Although he doesn't know what outsiders will say, but first of all, his father's situation He couldn't pass it, and there was pressure from his grandfather and other members of the family. After all, he wanted the Chen family to be on the same level as the maid. If someone slapped him with a hat, it would be difficult for him to pick it off. If Chen Yuzhen went to serve tea, he would definitely not dare to follow. However, he could see that Chen Yu had become silent and gloomy after the previous incident, and he must have been unable to see it away in his heart. Otherwise, he could only wander around at home for more than ten days, how could he not have seen him once? person? He must have been hiding from her on purpose, since the knot in his heart was still unresolved. Chen Bian and Zheng's parents couldn't force him to serve this cup of tea. If he had to accept this humiliation voluntarily, there was no need to think about it.
Sure enough, the old woman who had gone out earlier brought tea over with a smile on her face. Just when she was about to persuade the young master in a friendly voice, Chen Yu waved his sleeves angrily and swept the wooden plate and tea in her hand to the ground without caring about what was behind him. Everyone, turned around and walked out of the door.
The tea was spilled on the ground, and wisps of white mist came out. The old woman stood there in shock. His hands were still in the position of holding a wooden plate, and the smile on his face gradually solidified, and he felt a little at a loss for a moment.
The teapot is made of white porcelain and is of good quality. It did not crack even after being dropped on the ground. Only a corner of the spout was knocked off. No one in the hall knew what to say, and the atmosphere suddenly dropped to freezing point.
Seeing that no one responded, Chen Yue smiled, leaned over to pick up the teapot and put it on the coffee table aside. Then he bowed to Chen Bian, turned around and walked out of the hall with his hands behind his back.
After Chen Yue walked out, everyone came to their senses and cursed loudly. Chen Yue was here just now, even though they were second-family members. But first of all, Chen Yue can be regarded as their boss, and secondly, Chen Bian's previous intention was very clear, which was to make a full show of reconciliation with Chen Yue. Naturally, they couldn't express their troubles, but now they had to rush to show their loyalty. , although it may not be of any use. But there's nothing wrong with scolding, but there's no guarantee that you won't be resented if you don't scold.
"Okay!" Chen Bian slapped the table hard with his palm. The surroundings immediately became quiet, "No one should go out and talk too much about today's matter. If I know who is gossiping outside, I will not forgive him!"
Everyone quickly expressed their opinions. Chen Bian waved his hand with a headache: "Everyone, get out."
Everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief and carefully exited the door.
Mrs. Zheng tidied her clothes bitterly, and the anger on her face had not subsided. She complained: "Master, what on earth did you do today! Are you willing to force our mother and son to a dead end?"
Chen Bian rubbed his eyebrows with his hands, "If you don't understand, I'll tell you when I have a rest in the evening. Now let's think about how to end it."
"What do I not understand, what do I not understand?" Zheng's anger was still there, "You are an elder, why do you have to please that boy Chen Yue?"
"What's so flattering?" Chen Bian shook his head, "Whether things succeed or not, it wouldn't be a bad thing if the family could be more stable. Besides, weren't you the one who caused these things?"
"What the hell!" Mrs. Zheng straightened her clothes and sat down on the chair next to Chen Bian, "You can't bear to see your second brother being bullied by that thief? I don't know where he copied the poems from, but he also defiled the second brother. Brother¡¯s reputation!¡±
"I've heard about that incident too. In the final analysis, it's my second brother who's also at fault. I can't blame him." He paused and then said, "I won't be writing his poems when I come back. In recent years, Hangzhou Zuo has been The situation is not good. My Chen family will survive after all. Your Zheng family has such a big industry, but the expenses of your family are not much smaller than that of the Zheng family. The rent from last year has not been fully collected yet. This year, many farmers have to borrow grain. Loans have been a bit difficult recently."
"So what? Is it related to that thief?"
"It doesn't matter where I come from. It's okay if I can hold on. I'll be able to breathe a sigh of relief when the harvest comes. But this year, many farmers can no longer hold on. There are more than a dozen households who have abandoned their land to seek refuge with relatives and friends. There are still It¡¯s okay to use money and food to appease other people, but it¡¯s only February and there are actually locusts in the fields!¡±
"" Mrs. Zheng was also horrified when she heard this. Hangzhou has not had a good harvest for several years in a row. Most people's grain reserves have been almost eaten. Now in February, there are swarms of locusts. This This is definitely not good news. "Then what can the thief do?"
Chen Bian shook his head and said, "It's not that he has the means, it's that he has the money! If the family evens out its losses, it will only have an income of several thousand guan every year, but he had at least 800 guan in income last month!"
"Could it be that he stole it? Eight hundred guan. How did he get such a lot of money and goods?"
"Maybe it's an exaggeration, but it's still the same. Have you recently heard of something called 'flower dew' produced in Hangzhou? I asked someone to inquire about it carefully, and it was what he made. The shopkeeper of Fuji It turned out that the people he wanted to go to Fu Zhang were just two handymen of the family. If he could take over the floral dew business, the current situation would be much better." In fact, Chen Yue is very good at floral dew. His monthly income was more than this amount, but after all, Chen Bian had no way of knowing the details, so he just made a rough guess.
When Mrs. Zheng heard what her husband said, her face couldn't help but change color, "I've also heard of this flower dew. A few days ago, he sent a copy to every room in the house. But he is less than twenty. At such an age, how can he make such a thing? Could it be that if he was hit on the head by an incense burner, some immortal would come to help him?"
Chen Bian waved his hand, "It doesn't matter now, let's see how to clean up the mess when father comes back. From now on, you should keep your second brother awake. Even if you don't need fifth brother, don't stir up trouble anymore."
