Chapter 359 Disposal
The Marquis of Changchun was furious: "How dare you!"
The triangular eyes looked indifferent: "Killing people to pay for their lives and debts to pay back money have been a matter of course since ancient times. Lord Hou is unwilling to pay back the money for his son, but also uses power to oppress others. It is expected that we mud-legged people will have nothing to complain about." The door! Do the neighbors say so?"
The people watching the excitement began to discuss.
It is indeed not a good thing for a few people to coax the eldest son of the Changchun Hou Mansion to gamble, but they all came to his door. If they don’t pay back the money, is it possible to see his son being sold into a small house?
The Marquis of Changchun's face was ashen. At this moment, he was determined to kill Xu Qi.
Hou Fu's killing these gangsters is as easy as crushing a few ants, but it can only be done secretly. At this moment, such a few gangsters are making a scene in front of people, and they will lose the face of the Changchun Marquis Mansion.
"Master Hou." Mrs. Yang, the wife of Changchun Hou, came out in a hurry. When she saw Xu Qi caught by the triangle eyes, she couldn't help being anxious, "Who are you? What's wrong with Xi'er?"
Triangular eyes grinned: "Yo, you are the mother of Mr. Xu?"
Yang frowned and asked, "What exactly do you want to do?"
"What are you doing? Your son lost five thousand taels of silver in Qianjinfang, and we are here to ask for the debt."
Xu Qi got into the bad habit of gambling because of Yang's unobtrusive guidance, and the day when someone came to collect debts was already expected.
Even so, Yang was still surprised when he heard that Xu Qi had lost five thousand taels.
This idiot never failed her expectations.
Taking out five thousand taels is **** painful, but if you use five thousand taels to drive Xu Qi out of the Hou Mansion, it will be a good loss.
"Mrs. Hou, why don't you pay back the five thousand taels of silver?"
Yang's face straightened, and he said calmly: "You let the child go, and I will order someone to withdraw the money."
The triangular eyes were happy: "Mrs. Hou is still happy. People say that if you have a stepmother, you will have a stepfather. It seems that this is not true."
Xu Qi, who had always been numb, glanced at Yang.
The Marquis of Changchun stopped him with a serious face: "These people are setting up a scheme to blackmail—"
Yang shook her head: "Master Hou, nothing is as important as Xi'er, so give them the money."
As she spoke, she winked at her confidant woman.
The confidant woman walked into the Hou's mansion quickly, and returned soon.
"give them."
The confidant woman handed a small box to Triangle Eye.
The triangular eyes opened and took a look, then closed the box immediately, and said with a smile: "Mrs. Hou really loves her son, so let's not bother the Hou's mansion to have a good New Year. Brothers, let's go!"
The triangular eyes pushed Xu Qi forward, and took a few people away quickly.
Mr. Yang stared at the backs of several people leaving in a hurry, with a sneer on the corner of her mouth.
Man died for money, and birds died for food. With such a large amount of money on them, I don’t believe these people can go back safely.
Before the spectators dispersed, Yang raised his voice and ordered his servants: "Take the eldest son to take a hot bath and change into clean clothes. It will be bad if you get cold in this weather..."
As the vermilion lacquered gates of the Changchun Hou Mansion slowly closed, many voices of admiration were left behind for the Yang family.
"It's really rare for a stepmother to be able to do this."
"The time Miss Luo came to make trouble, I thought this stepmother was no good. I didn't expect the five thousand taels of gambling debt to be taken out today."
"Yeah, it's hard to be a stepmother. It's great to be like Mrs. Changchun Hou."
…
The face of the Marquis of Changchun was covered with dark clouds. Seeing that Xu Qiguo was really going to take a bath with the help of his servants, he immediately became angry: "What kind of bath, bring him in!"
As soon as he entered the hall, the Marquis of Changchun shouted: "Bastard, kneel down!"
The servants who were supporting Xu Qi loosened their hands, and Xu Qi fell to the ground.
Looking at his muddy son, Marquis Changchun's eyes were full of disgust.
What else can such a son do besides causing trouble and embarrassing himself?
Time and time again, it's not a fight, it's an apology, or it's filling money. This is a bottomless pit.
Seeing it in her eyes, Mrs. Yang was happy in her heart, and took advantage of the situation to persuade her: "Master Hou, Xi'er is still young, don't be angry—"
"Still young?" Marquis Changchun came up angrily, "Is he still young in his teens? Nan'er and the others are so much younger than him, why don't they get into trouble like him?"
"Every child has a different temperament... Hou Ye should be more patient, and marry Xi'er a wife in two years—"
"Enough!" Marquis Changchun raised his hand, but Yang's persuasion prompted him to make a certain decision.
Long gave birth to nine sons, each of which is different. The eldest son is such a thing that mud can't support the wall, and it can't be changed at all. If he is allowed to go on like this, the entire Hou Mansion will be destroyed by him sooner or later.
The Marquis of Changchun stared at Xu Qi who was kneeling on the ground, and said word by word: "Open the ancestral hall, I want to drive this wicked son out of the house!"
Xu Qi raised his head suddenly, looking at Marquis Changchun in disbelief.
He thought that his father would not let him off easily this time, but he never expected to drive him out of the house.
He is the eldest son of his father, because five thousand taels will drive him out, and he will not be recognized as a son?
For the first time, this stubborn and willful boy felt what is real fear.
He didn't dare to imagine what would happen if he was kicked out of the Hou Mansion.
He has seen with his own eyes a person whose fingers were chopped off because he had not paid his gambling debts, and he has also seen people die of hunger and cold because they lost nothing, and their bodies were dragged away like dead dogs.
If he loses his status as Lord Hou Men, will he also become like that?
Before, she was confident and fearless, in the final analysis, it was because of the support of the Hou Mansion.
Great fear surrounded the young man, causing him to suddenly regret his addiction to gambling these days.
Mr. Yang was taken aback: "Master Hou, don't be angry."
"I didn't speak out. This evil son is stubborn by nature, and he will not change after repeated admonitions. If he is not expelled from the house, sooner or later he will cause a catastrophe, which will harm the entire Hou Mansion and even the Xu clan. At that time, I will be even more sorry for my ancestors."
Yang's eyes flickered: "Such a big thing... Do you want the big girl to know?"
The Marquis of Changchun originally thought that a young girl should not get involved in these matters, nor was she qualified to participate, but thinking of the fact that two of them have one mother, and the eldest daughter is close to Duke Ning's mansion, he asked, "Where's the eldest girl?"
"The eldest girl seems to have gone out." Yang asked the steward, "Did the eldest girl say where she went when she went out?"
The steward hurriedly said: "The eldest girl said to go out for a stroll."
"Go and call the eldest girl back." Yang ordered.
The Marquis of Changchun became more and more unhappy, and said coldly: "No one is worry-free!"
It was a cold day, a girl ran out of the house at every turn, she really didn't have any rules.
There is a warm and cozy wine shop, Xu Fang eats roasted sweet potatoes but is full of anxiety, looking at the door from time to time.
One person hurried to the door of the restaurant and shouted: "Miss, something happened at home, you should go back quickly."
"What happened?" Xu Fang asked calmly.
"The eldest son has made a big mistake, Lord Hou wants to drive him out of the house!"
