After the marriage was severed, I fled with my golden finger to protect my mother
Chapter 208 We Are Not Liars
"How could you do this? My family saved Master Guan's life, and now I just want to come and take a look, but you are bullying me like this..."
Seeing that the Guan family was so large and powerful, and that the Guan family, which had been smiling all day a few days ago, had changed their faces so quickly, Xu Linzhi was angry and anxious, and had to bring up the life-saving grace of that day.
"If it weren't for the help of our Xu family, who knows what would have happened to your eldest son..."
As Xu Linzhi spoke, she seemed to have suffered a great injustice and started to cry with a handkerchief in her hand.
"Yes, you can't be so conscienceless..."
"Sister is right. If it weren't for my mother, the Xu family, who took care of me along the way, your young master wouldn't know what to do now..."
"Call them out quickly, we just want to say a few words..."
Several brothers of the Xu family were also talking at the side. As for the head of the family, Xu Qingrong, he naturally couldn't afford to lose face and stood at the back with a blank expression.
"Wuwuwu... Master Guan, please come out..."
Xu Linzhi cried so hard that she couldn't speak. If outsiders didn't know what was happening, they would think that Master Guan had done something to her.
It was a pity that he was the only one living in Guan's house. Although there were other mansions nearby, the snow had finally stopped today and everyone was busy with their work. They didn't have the leisure to watch the fun.
"What's the fuss about?"
At this moment, a woman's voice was heard from the Guan family's yard, and then a woman dressed very richly came out.
She was wearing a snow-white fox fur cloak, standing high up on the steps, her face seemed covered with a layer of ice, staring coldly at Xu Linzhi.
"I pay my respects to the Madam."
The servants of the Guan family all bowed to the woman, and their attitude was very respectful.
The woman waved casually at everyone, her eyes always moving back and forth on Xu Linzhi's pretty face.
"You said you wanted to see the eldest son?"
"I...I just want..."
This woman's aura was too cold. Xu Linzhi was just a little country girl who had never seen the world, so how could she dare to look her in the eye?
He was so scared that he shrank his neck and stammered for a long time without uttering a complete sentence.
These people call her the Madam?
Doesn’t that mean that this woman is the wife of Master Guan?
Not knowing what was going on, Xu Linzhi just felt depressed. Her intuition told her that this so-called eldest lady might be full of malice towards her.
"Can't tell? Isn't that a liar? Someone come..."
Seeing her timid look, the eldest young lady could not help but sneer and was about to order the servants to drive her away.
It had finally stopped snowing, and she had been thinking of taking people to check out her shops. Unexpectedly, she saw such a shameless little bitch who kept saying she wanted to find her husband. It was simply outrageous.
"We are not liars, we are really not liars, ma'am, please listen to me..."
Seeing that the servants were already pressing towards her, Xu Linzhi became anxious. She was about to tell them what happened that day, but was stopped again.
"What are you talking about? Aren't you just relying on your good looks to become a phoenix?"
The one who spoke was Guan Da, the housekeeper. He winked at the servant beside him, and the man nodded and ran into the mansion.
"Madam, you are a daughter of gold. How can these cheap people talk to you? I will have them chased away immediately to avoid their nonsense from polluting your ears..."
The housekeeper's eyes flickered and he whispered a few words to the eldest young lady's wife.
"Look at the way these people are dressed. Maybe they can't make ends meet anymore, so they come here to try their luck. If you really stay and listen to her nonsense, that would be exactly what she wants..."
This was very reasonable. The eldest young lady's wife looked at the butler steadily until she felt her heart pounding with fear in her heart. Then she chuckled and withdrew her gaze.
"What the housekeeper said is absolutely right. If that's the case, I'll leave this matter to you. Get rid of him quickly. Otherwise, if someone sees this, wouldn't it make our Guan family laugh?"
Seeing the butler nodding repeatedly, the eldest young lady glanced at Xu Linzhi again, curled the corners of her mouth slightly, smiled meaningfully, and then left with her people.
When she left, not only the people in the Xu family, but even the housekeeper breathed a sigh of relief.
"No, we didn't..."
"Just shut up now, you can't understand my expression at all."
Seeing Xu Linzhi was still defending him, the housekeeper was so angry that he glared at her fiercely.
"This is not the place to talk. Come with me."
She was just a little yellow-haired girl, so the housekeeper didn't bother with Xu Linzhi. He glanced at the grown man Xu Qingrong and walked out first.
The Xu family members looked at each other. Xu Qingrong coughed lightly, winked at his children, and followed the housekeeper.
Several people went to a small teahouse outside one after another. The housekeeper ignored them and asked the waiter to bring some snacks and tea, and started to enjoy them as if no one was around.
"Tell me, what exactly brought you here today?"
Seeing that all the Xu family members had followed over, Xu Linzhi's brother was tactful enough to close the door of the private room. The housekeeper did not bother to talk to them and directly asked them why they came.
"We came here out of necessity. I hope you, Master Steward, will be magnanimous and not bother with country folk like us..."
Before, in front of Guan's door, Xu Qingrong didn't say a word. But now that he entered the house, the housekeeper opposite asked him, so he bowed to him and sat down on a seat at the side.
The butler drank his tea, glanced at him, and said nothing.
Xu Qingrong was a little embarrassed, but this time it was his own family who came to ask for help, and they really went back on their word, so he had no choice but to repeat his family's request this time.
"Haha... I didn't expect you guys to be so good at acting..."
After Xu Qingrong said a few words, the housekeeper couldn't help but look at him with disdain and interrupted:
"So, when everyone in your family is here, they were able to take away so many things and food quietly?"
Who are you trying to fool?
He has been the butler of the Guan family for so many years and has seen all kinds of strange things. In his opinion, there are only two possibilities for something like this.
Either it's haunted, or these people are stealing from the company.
You have to know that this is the emperor's territory, it is obviously impossible for it to be haunted, so the only possibility left is that the thief robbed the company.
"This is absolutely true. If you don't believe it, you can go to the Jingzhao Yin Yamen to ask. We went to the Yamen to report the case the next day after the incident."
