Chapter 573: Tearing Off the Mask
Chapter 573: Taking Off the Mask
General Lu looked at Madam Liang and Liang Feiyu with eyes as sharp as knives, and continued to ask:
"Since you didn't inform me, your father, in advance, how dare you come to propose marriage?
You guys are trying to fool Zhiyi into agreeing to this marriage, right?"
The Liang family mother and son looked very unhappy. They did not expect General Lu to be so ruthless.
After a long while, Mrs. Liang finally managed to say:
"But, my son and Miss Lu are in love with each other!"
"Mutual affection?
Zhiyi is still young, she might be sold and have to count money for others!"
Mrs. Liang argued:
"We didn't lie to Miss Lu!"
Lu Zhihuan glared at the two people in front of him angrily and said:
"Whether it's a lie or not, you know it very well!"
Liang Feiyu argued:
“We are sincere.
We brought a lot of betrothal gifts with us.”
"Oh? A lot of betrothal gifts? How much is a lot?"
Liang Feiyu waved his hand, and the servant behind him opened all the boxes in the yard.
Each box contained gold and silver bars.
Liang Feiyu continued:
"Two thousand ounces of gold and sixty thousand ounces of silver."
Lu Zhihuan and General Lu stood up and walked towards the boxes.
Liang Feiyu also walked over and said:
"We are sincere and we don't mean to look down on Miss Lu."
At this time, Mrs. Liang and Liang Feiyu still looked righteous!
Lu Zhihuan was just about to expose that the gold and silver were fake when Lu Zhiyi came unexpectedly.
Liang Feiyu and Madam Liang felt much more at ease when they saw Lu Zhiyi.
They know how much Lu Zhiyi loves Liang Feiyu!
Now that she's here, the marriage might still be possible!
Lu Zhiyi heard from the servants that the Marquis of Pingyang had come to propose marriage.
She was also shocked!
Liang Feiyu didn't tell her about this in advance!
Are they going to give themselves a surprise?
But the maid said that the master and the young master looked unhappy, as if they were questioning Madam Liang and Liang Feiyu.
Last night, her father and brother just came back, and she hadn't had time to tell them about her and Liang Feiyu.
She could understand why her father and brother were angry.
But she wanted to go to the front hall to check, so that her father would not blame the people in Pingyang Marquis' Mansion.
Thinking of this, Lu Zhiyi came!
She did not appear immediately, but hid not far away and listened.
Then I heard my father questioning Madam Liang and Master Liang for not informing him in advance about the marriage proposal!
This matter was indeed the fault of the Pingyang Marquis' Mansion.
Not to mention daddy, she only found out about the proposal today!
Daddy said that this matter is not right or reasonable!
She also agrees with this!
She felt a little uncomfortable!
Just then, Master Liang told her the amount of the betrothal gift, and she was delighted.
She didn't expect they would prepare so much.
It seems that the Pingyang Marquis' Mansion still values her very much.
Lu Zhiyi didn't want her father and the Pingyang Marquis' Mansion to have too much trouble, so she wanted to come out and act as a peacemaker!
So, she walked out!
General Lu saw Lu Zhiyi coming and asked:
"Zhiyi, why are you here?"
"I heard that Pingyang Marquis Mansion came to propose marriage, so I came to take a look."
"Zhiyi, did you know that they came to propose marriage?
You have to tell the truth!"
Lu Zhiyi wanted to say that he knew, but seeing his father's serious expression, he told the truth:
"I didn't know about it in advance, and I just found out about it."
General Lu looked at Madam Liang and Liang Feiyu even more unkindly. He thought that Zhiyi had tacitly agreed to the marriage proposal, but he didn't expect that Zhiyi didn't know about it either!
The Pingyang Marquis Mansion is really great!
Mrs. Liang and Liang Feiyu felt even more guilty when they saw General Lu's expression.
But when they thought of the betrothal gift, they became more confident.
At this moment, the two of them had already forgotten that the betrothal gift was also fake!
When Lu Zhihuan saw the expressions of the Liang mother and son, he knew what they were thinking and sneered in his heart.
He wanted to tear off the masks between this mother and son immediately!
Lu Zhihuan looked at his father.
General Lu nodded and said to Lu Zhiyi:
"Zhiyi, let's stand aside and let your brother see the sincerity of the Pingyang Marquis Mansion."
This is the time to verify the betrothal gift!
Lu Zhiyi nodded. She also hoped to find out the truth as soon as possible. As long as her father saw the sincerity of Pingyang Marquis' Mansion, he would not be angry.
Mrs. Liang and Liang Feiyu became extremely nervous!
Lu Zhihuan said to his men:
"Let someone come up."
"Yes."
After a moment, a man dressed as a shopkeeper walked in.
When they saw this person, Mrs. Liang and Liang Feiyu knew it was all over!
This person is none other than the owner of the largest bank in Yuhuan City!
He deals with gold and silver every day. As long as he takes something in his hand and weighs it, he can tell whether it is real or fake!
Seeing the expressions of the Liang mother and son, Lu Zhihuan felt really relieved.
Lu Zhihuan said to the shopkeeper:
"Manager Yan, I'll have to trouble you from now on."
"Yes."
Shopkeeper Yan walked to a box, took out a gold bar at random from the middle, weighed it in his hand, and immediately frowned.
He took the gold bar from the lower layer, weighed it, shook it next to his ear, and then put it down.
Turning around, he walked to the other boxes...
After walking around, Manager Yan had figured out what was going on. He said:
“General, there are problems with these gold and silver bars.
I just weighed them, and then shook them next to my ears to listen. My initial guess is that these gold and silver bars are hollow and filled with sand and gravel!"
After hearing this, Mrs. Liang immediately jumped up and scolded:
"What nonsense are you talking about!"
Shopkeeper Yan said neither humbly nor arrogantly:
“I am not a talented person, but I have been the manager of a bank for so many years and have never made any mistakes.
If Madam has any objections, we can test it on the spot."
Mrs. Liang’s current idea is that even if the marriage fails today, she cannot let anyone expose on the spot that they used fake goods to propose marriage.
If this gets out, the reputation of their mansion will be completely ruined.
Who would dare to deal with their mansion in the future?
Therefore, this matter must not be exposed in front of others.
Madam Liang pretended to be particularly angry and said:
"What do you mean by General's Mansion?
If you don't agree with this marriage, just say so. Why do you have to humiliate our mansion like this?
Let’s just pretend we weren’t here today.
Yu'er, let's go."
General Lu spoke up to stop him:
"Wait!
What? Is Mrs. Liang feeling guilty?
Are you in such a hurry to run away?"
Mrs. Liang stiffened her neck and argued:
"I don't feel guilty at all, it's obviously you who are going too far!
You are going to destroy our mansion!"
General Lu was so angry that he laughed. This Madam Liang was really difficult to deal with. Her ability to turn the tables was truly unique.
No wonder Zhiyi was successfully plotted against!
“Are we going too far?
Madam Liang, you should know clearly what you have done!
We both know whether we have bullied you or not!
We must check it out on the spot today.
Otherwise, once we leave the General's Mansion, you will go around saying bad things about us, and we will have no way to defend ourselves!
Come, check it out!"
