After her luck was taken away, she fell in love with the woman who traveled through time.
Chapter 93 3rd Generation 3
Liang Qingfeng was a seasoned man, and he didn't feel embarrassed when he heard this. He just sighed and said, "Da Lang, some things that your uncle did were wrong before. Please give your uncle some face because we are from the same clan."
"The people in Kuangzhou City love to talk about in-laws. Those who are related ten generations ago dare to say that they are from the same clan. If I give them face, won't I be trampled underfoot?" Liang Tan laughed, "Don't you agree, uncle?"
"You!" Liang Qingfeng relied on his seniority and had never been contradicted like this before. Hearing this, he immediately became furious, but thinking that he needed help today, he could only endure it, "We are different from the side branches after all."
"Uncle, be careful with your words. If you really think we are different from the side branches, why would you have such dirty thoughts?" Liang Tan sneered.
"Miss!" Liang You couldn't stop talking, and immediately said angrily, "Why do you have to be so aggressive!"
Liang Tan was speechless: "You and your father shamelessly plotted against me, and now you think I'm being aggressive?"
"you……"
"You'er, don't be rude," Liang Qingfeng said, looking at Liang Tan helplessly, "Da Lang, I'm old now, and I'm afraid that if something happens to me, no one will take care of my precious daughter in the future. That's why I was bewildered and did something wrong. I hope you can forgive me this time because I've worked with your father for many years."
Liang Tan smiled: "Uncle, what you said makes it seem like I would be unkind if I continue to care about it?"
Liang Qingfeng didn't expect her to be so difficult now, and frowned for a moment: "What on earth are you going to do to let us go?"
"I'm not that aggressive," Liang Tan said, and deliberately glanced at Liang You for a second. Seeing that she was so frustrated that her face turned red, he turned away with satisfaction, "I heard that Langzhou is a place of outstanding people and beautiful scenery. How about uncle taking sister Youer to settle there? On the one hand, we can do business, and on the other hand, we can find a good marriage for sister Youer. Isn't it the best of both worlds..."
"Liang Chao! You, you want to drive me out of Kuangzhou City?" Liang Qingfeng interrupted in disbelief, "Do you still have any humanity? You forced my whole family to move and become homeless!"
Liang Tan was silent for a moment, then chuckled, "How can I allow others to sleep foolishly beside my bed? Uncle, you have violated my taboo."
Liang Qingfeng was stunned, and when he met her gaze again, he suddenly felt a chill on his back.
Seeing that Liang Qingfeng was silent, Liang You quickly knelt down in front of Liang Tan and said, "Miss, You'er knows that I was wrong. Please give my family a chance to live. You'er is willing to die to atone for her sins..."
"You'er! Don't talk nonsense. We have done nothing wrong." Liang Qingfeng was interrupted by his daughter and suddenly sobered up. "Yes, we have done nothing wrong. Why should we be afraid of him? If he really dares to drive us away, we will go to the ancestral hall and ask the elders for judgment!"
After saying that, he pulled Liang You up, turned around and left.
Liang Tan watched them leave and sighed softly, "You really won't give up."
As soon as she finished speaking, Chanjuan came in from outside. After seeing her, she bowed solemnly and said, "Miss, there was news from the mine just now that the three people we sent there could not bear the heavy labor and committed suicide."
Liang Tan narrowed his eyes: "That's really a coincidence."
"I'm afraid Liang Qingfeng had already dealt with several people before he came," Chan Juan frowned, "Now all the evidence is gone, what should we do?"
"Just like teaching those slaves a lesson, it doesn't matter if there is evidence or not, it all depends on my will," Liang Tan stretched, feeling his chest getting tighter, "I am good-tempered, so they think that they can be my boss just by gathering a few old men."
"Are you going to do it your own way?" Chan Juan became even more worried, "Won't that offend people?"
"Now that I haven't offended anyone, why don't they try to plot against me? If I give them medicine today, they may be poisoned tomorrow. I have to let them know and be afraid." Liang Tan sneered.
She had originally intended to swallow this loss, but after a few days of idleness at home, she gradually figured it out. Sometimes the more you give in, the more evil people will think of you. It would be better to defeat them once and for all, so you don't have to deal with their tricks in the future.
What's more, Liang Qingfeng and his daughter are the two main forces that will bully Cui Ling in the future. She must drive them away.
Liang Tan let out a sigh of relief, having already made a decision in his heart.
Seeing her confident expression, Chanjuan stopped asking questions.
Sure enough, one day later, several elders of the clan sent people to invite her to the ancestral hall.
Chanjuan was helping Liang Tan wash up when she heard the servant outside reporting something. She immediately frowned.
Liang Tan raised his lips and raised his voice, "I am not feeling well today. If it is nothing serious, I will not go."
The visitor did not expect her to refuse and was stunned: "But, but the elders have been waiting in the ancestral hall for a long time."
"Then please go back and have a rest, elders. The ancestral hall is cool and shady, and you are old, so it is better for you to go there less often." Liang Tan picked up a piece of cake and handed it to Chanjuan. He waited for her to take it before taking another piece for himself.
Seeing her firm attitude, the visitor had to go back and report.
Just as Liang Tan said, the ancestral hall was cool and the weather was cold, so the old men were freezing. They gritted their teeth and waited for a long time, but didn't even see her.
"All the elders of the clan have seen this, right? Liang Chao is really too bullying. He has only been in charge for a few days, but he has already ignored all of us elders. If he continues like this, won't he be bullying us in the future?!" Liang Qingfeng had a look of grief and indignation on his face.
The other old men were also very angry and scolded Liang Tan for not knowing etiquette. Liang Qingfeng took the opportunity to say, "If he doesn't come, then we will go and ask him for an explanation."
The few people who had scolded Liang Tan the most fiercely immediately looked hesitant when they heard that they were going to find her.
Liang Qingfeng cursed them in his heart for being useless, but his face was still filled with grief and anger: "Everyone, think carefully. If you don't protect me today, who knows who will be the next one to suffer. Are we going to let him divide up our huge Liang family like this?"
This sentence really hit the nail on the head for everyone. Although they were still hesitant, they finally agreed to go with him. Liang Qingfeng breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this. He planned that if Liang Tan dared to mention the drugging, he would accuse her of slandering him and make sure she would not dare to touch him again.
Liang Qingfeng had a very good plan, but when he really got in front of Liang Tan, all his plans were disrupted.
Because Liang Tan never mentioned the drugging from beginning to end, and he looked very sick, and even needed the support of the maid named Chanjuan to sit.
Obviously, no one expected that Liang Tan was really sick, and his momentum weakened before he even opened his mouth.
"You all come here today, not to call you to task, right?" Liang Tan said calmly.
The oldest old man said awkwardly: "Nephew, what are you talking about?"
"If it's not you, why are you coming with such force?" Liang Tan raised his eyes.
The old man didn't know how to respond, but Liang Qingfeng couldn't wait: "I asked a few elders to come here, just to ask you why you drove me out of Kuangzhou City!"
"Drive you out? Where did you get that from?" Liang Tan laughed. "My uncle didn't offend me, so why would I drive you away? I invited you to Langzhou only for the future development of the Liang family. I asked you to take the lead. How could you doubt my intentions?"
She looked disappointed, which made Liang Qingfeng even more angry: "If you just want me to take the lead, why do you need to attack my property! You clearly want me to have no place to stand in Kuangzhou City!"
"I am not feeling well. If you have come here to frame me, I apologize for my poor hospitality." Liang Tan said, and was about to get up and go back to his room.
Liang Qingfeng stopped her directly and asked with gritted teeth: "Can you swear that you didn't take action against my property?"
"If I take over my uncle's property, how about cutting off his family line and grandchildren?" Liang Tan said expressionlessly.
For an infertile fast-travel tasker, this oath is still daring enough, but for these native characters, this oath is a bit too harsh.
Liang Qingfeng obviously didn't expect her to say that, and was at a loss for a moment. The other people also looked a little embarrassed, and they all advised Liang Tan not to talk nonsense.
Liang Tan closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, a sharp gleam flashed in his eyes: "Enough."
Everyone shut up immediately.
"After my father passed away, I took on the responsibility of the Liang family. It has been three years now," Liang Tan's cold eyes swept across everyone's faces one by one, "I, Liang Chao, believe that I have been dedicated to the Liang family. Every year, I will take out a portion of the profit to support the family temple. Now I don't even have the power to send someone to do things. It's really disheartening. If this is the case..."
She paused for a moment, "Then I won't care about the Liang family in the future. Anyway, everyone here has more experience than me, so why not choose someone to take charge."
"It's easy for you to say that, but are you willing to hand over your property?!" Liang Qingfeng blurted out and regretted it the moment he said it.
Sure enough, Liang Tan chuckled and said, "Is there any part of my property that was distributed by the Liang Family Ancestral Hall?"
Liang Qingfeng pursed his lips, and the others also felt a pang in their hearts.
Among the Liang family today, only Liang Tan's branch is promising and has a huge business. The other branches are just doing well, and they are able to survive comfortably until now only because of the profit Liang Tan gives them every year. If Liang Tan leaves the Liang family, they will have to fend for themselves.
At this moment, they realized that it was not Liang Tan who cared about the identity of the head of the Liang family, but the Liang family could not do without Liang Tan's care. For a moment, they regretted their impulsiveness in coming here.
"Don't worry, I will manage the family business that my father worked so hard for, and I will pass it on to my children and grandchildren after I die," Liang Tan emphasized. "If I, Liang Chao, am unlucky and die young, or have no children, then I will donate all my property to the people of Kuangzhou City, as a way to accumulate merit for my next life."
When everyone heard that she had made the decision, they panicked: "Nephew, don't be impulsive. You are still young, how could you not have children? Don't make a decision that you will regret."
"Grandpa has seen it all over the past few years that you have been in charge. No one else can be the head of the Liang family except you."
"Yes, yes, don't be impulsive..."
Liang Qingfeng's expression became more and more ugly, and he stood there with his fists clenched. Liang Tan glanced at him and sat back indifferently. The others were all shrewd people. After seeing what she meant, they immediately turned around and persuaded Liang Qingfeng.
Liang Tan drank her tea slowly and was too lazy to even look at Liang Qingfeng's reaction, because she knew in her heart that Liang Qingfeng would definitely compromise.
Sure enough, Liang Qingfeng was defeated very quickly and stood in front of Liang Tan dejectedly: "Da Lang, you are right. The Liang family cannot rest on their laurels. I am willing to explore the way to Langzhou for the Liang family."
"Thank you very much, uncle." Liang Tan smiled and didn't say anything else.
Liang Qingfeng left with a gloomy face. The others did not dare to stay any longer and said goodbye one after another. The bustling hall became quiet in an instant.
"After what happened today, they probably hope you live a hundred years and never dare to have any evil thoughts again." Chanjuan was in a very good mood.
Liang Tan smiled and said, "Yeah, at least it'll be a lesson for two years."
"That's great. Miss will have to be so strong in the future. Let's see if they dare to take advantage of their age and seniority." Chanjuan said, spitting in the direction of the door, obviously disgusted with these elders.
Liang Tan wiped off the powder on his lips at any time, revealing his original lip color, and then he said slowly: "Send a few people to keep an eye on Liang Qingfeng, so that he won't make any more trouble."
"Yes," Chanjuan agreed quickly, "Do you have any other instructions?"
Liang Tan thought for a moment and said, "Cui Ling has moved next door for more than three days. Has he investigated the list of unmarried women in the city?"
"To answer the young lady's question, he didn't investigate." Chanjuan always paid attention to the neighbors, so she knew this.
Liang Tan raised his eyebrows: "Oh?" Could it be that he has let go of what happened that day and is too lazy to seek revenge?
Just three seconds after the beautiful thought appeared, Chanjuan spoke again: "But he sent people to buy sandalwood from all the spice shops in the city."
Liang Tan: "…Why did he buy these things?"
"I don't know, maybe you want to compare which one is better?" Chan Juan hesitated, "After all, he is the general, so it's not surprising that he wants the best of everything."
Liang Tan: “…”
She sat there stiffly for a long time, and suddenly guessed what Cui Ling was going to do: "Chanjuan."
"The servant is here."
“Will the same spice taste different?” she asked nervously.
Chan Juan laughed and said, "Of course it is different. For example, sandalwood is everywhere in Kuangzhou City. There is a shop selling it every few steps. But the one with the purest and most elegant smell is only our Sandalwood Restaurant. It has an exclusive formula that others cannot imitate."
Liang Tan was speechless for a long time. Just as she was thinking about what to do, the doorman suddenly ran over and said, "Miss, General Cui's people are here. They want to invite you to their house for a chat."
She: “…” What you fear will come true.
Liang Tan had just figured out what Cui Ling was going to do with the spices when he was invited to the general's residence for tea. It would be a lie to say he wasn't nervous, but if he refused he would seem guilty.
The most important thing is that the people in the capital have not yet killed Cui Ling. Although Cui Ling is doomed at the moment, he still has some power. If I make him unhappy, not to mention that it would be easy for him as a court official to kill a commoner like me, even the prefect who has not yet turned against him may attack me to please him.
So after much thought, I just had to go ahead and do it.
Once one of the Liang family's old houses, now the General's Mansion is already quite old. Although she hired someone to renovate it carefully, it still looks a bit shabby, but fortunately the flowers and plants inside are all brand new, so this bit of shabbyness is not worth mentioning.
