After rebirth, I married the emperor's uncle and overthrew my ex-husband's kingdom
Chapter 211 Miss Bai, please be careful with your words!
"Miss Bai, please be careful with your words!"
Manager Chen had not expected that this yellow-haired girl was so eloquent and difficult to deal with, so he quickly explained, "This silver was given by the prince, it's not mine."
"Oh~ Really?"
Bai Youyou stretched out his tone, and the sarcastic smile on his face became even more intense.
She stood up and took the stack of banknotes from the table, counted them one by one, and then clicked her tongue twice, "Manager Chen has such a big appetite."
There was only one thousand taels of silver in total, but he dared to embezzle four hundred taels.
Manager Chen met her sarcastic look and looked away guiltily, "When doing business, it is natural to bargain. Miss Bai is young and has never done business before, so it is normal that she does not understand this principle."
Only a fool would believe such high-sounding words.
Bai Yanlang had not expected that Manager Chen would be so bold. He pulled the corner of his mouth and laughed. In order to ease the embarrassment, he quickly asked someone to get some tea for Manager Chen.
"Drink tea, drink tea."
Manager Chen took two sips of tea, relaxed his expression, and said flatteringly as if nothing had happened: "Miss Bai, this farm is really useful to our prince. How much silver do you want to sell it for? Just give me a price, and I will go back and report to our prince."
Bai Youyou held the teacup, pinching the lid of the bowl with her white fingers, brushing the tea leaves floating on the tea, and looked at him with raised eyebrows, as if smiling.
"If I don't sell it, what are you going to do, Prince? Force me to buy it or sell it?"
"Miss Bai, you are too polite. If you don't want to sell it, then don't sell it. In this world, transactions are all about mutual consent. There is no such thing as forced buying or selling."
Manager Chen had never seen a girl so cunning. He wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve and smiled bitterly.
Whatever his young master likes, he has to pay for with money. As for the price, that depends on his mood.
Most of the time, they just gave a symbolic amount. But even if those people suffered losses, they dared not speak out.
"Since the transaction is based on mutual consent, I will not sell this farm."
Bai Youyou stood up lazily, straightened her wrinkled sleeves, and said calmly, "It's getting late, Manager Chen, you should go back and tell your Lord Marquis to go to Jingzhao Prefecture."
"Going to Jingzhao Prefecture?"
When Manager Chen heard the three words "Jingzhao Prefecture", he secretly thought something was wrong.
It must be that his son had caused some trouble on the farm and the little girl knew about it.
He immediately restrained his attitude, knelt down and bowed his hands, saying: "Miss Bai, calm down. My prince just wanted to go to the manor to catch a few fish. I will report this matter to my master and let him punish our prince!"
“It’s more than just catching a few fish, right?”
Bai Youyou looked at Manager Chen with sharp eyes and said sternly, "If a prince breaks the law, he is guilty of the same crime as a commoner! Your prince broke into people's houses, beat up civilians, and seized good farmland. All of these are violations of the law. Naturally, the Jingzhao Yin will handle it!"
Bai Yanlang was shocked by her words. He asked in disbelief, "Could there be some misunderstanding?"
Bai Yanlang felt a little uneasy when he said this.
He had also heard a little about the behavior of the son of Marquis Yong'an, and knew that he was not a good person. Previously, someone had submitted a memorial to the emperor to accuse Marquis Yong'an of not educating his son properly, saying that he had seized people's land and done evil things, but in the end, the emperor suppressed his criticism.
Not many people know about this, but it’s not a small number either.
"Dad, what did you say to Fourth Sister?"
When Bai Yanlang wanted to ask what happened, Bai Yaoyao walked in from outside the door in a thin pink jacket, followed by the prince in light golden brocade clothes.
"His Royal Highness."
When Bai Yanlang and Manager Chen saw the prince, they quickly bowed to him.
When Steward Chen saw the prince, he was like seeing a Bodhisattva who could save the world. He quickly stepped forward and said to the prince, "Your Highness, there is a misunderstanding between the prince and the fourth Miss Bai. Please help to mediate. It's just a small matter. There's no need to go to Jingzhao Prefecture."
The corners of the prince's lips, which were originally curved, suddenly turned down. He frowned and stared coldly at Manager Chen, with a raging rage in his eyes, "What trouble has Jiang Hui caused again?"
"this......"
Manager Chen looked up at Bai Youyou, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.
The prince also glanced in Bai Youyou's direction, his tone suddenly cold, "What happened?!"
"The prince went to the outskirts of Beijing for a tour and fell in love with the fourth young lady's farm, so he asked me to spend money to buy it."
Manager Chen tensed his back nervously, standing there uncomfortably, sweating profusely, and said, "It's just that the prince has an impatient temper. I'm afraid he did something out of line and caused the fourth lady to misunderstand."
When the prince heard this, veins bulged on his forehead.
How could he not know Jiang Hui's character?
In the past, those people were of low status, so for his sake, they had to suffer in silence.
Now, he dared to provoke Bai Youyou!
The prince suppressed his anger and asked sternly, "Where is he now?!"
Manager Chen's voice trembled, "In Zaozhuang on the outskirts of the city."
"Zaozhuang?"
When Bai Yaoyao heard the word Zaozhuang, she couldn't help but look at Bai Yanlang and asked, "Dad, is this the Zaozhuang in your hands?"
"Then Zaozhuang is given to your fourth sister."
Bai Yanlang's words made Bai Yaoyao's face change. She asked Bai Yanlang excitedly: "Dad, didn't you say that the farm was for me? How could you give it to Fourth Sister?"
There is nothing special about the village, but the important thing is the forest in the village. That mountain will be of great use to her in the future!
"This farm was given to me a long time ago. Wasn't it stolen by your aunt and used to pay off your third brother's debt? Weren't you there at the time?"
Bai Youyou looked at her anxious expression, feeling somewhat puzzled.
She deliberately made a big fuss about it at the time. Bai Yaoyao herself was also present at the time. How could she have forgotten it in such a short time?
Bai Yaoyao's eyes were filled with tears, and her expression was bitter. "I had a serious illness before, and my mind is a little confused. I can't remember many things in the past."
"Would you like me to send Doctor Pang to take your pulse?"
The prince glanced at her with a worried look.
Seeing the prince so concerned about Bai Yaoyao, Bai Yanlang's eyes suddenly lit up. He bowed and thanked him, "My daughter has been weak since the last time. It would be great if we could ask Doctor Pang to see her."
Bai Yaoyao naturally would not refuse the prince's concern. She held the handkerchief and bowed tenderly, "Thank you, prince."
Tai Zixu helped her up, then turned to look at Bai Youyou, with a gentle smile on his lips, "I guess the fragrance of the green plum sachet from last time has dissipated? I'll send you two more tomorrow."
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. No need for the sachet. I don't like to wear those things."
Bai Youyou politely refused.
The prince wanted to use this incident to improve relations, but he was not annoyed when he heard this, and his voice became even softer. "My cousin is a bad boy, can you spare him this time for my sake, Miss?"
