The mistress of a marquis's family divorced her husband and married someone else: the scumbag
Chapter 39 Is That Place Yours?
"Master Ximen, don't you want to know the answer? Isn't the person here?"
Facing Chu Beiyu's murderous eyes, Ye Qingluo was not afraid at all. Instead, his eyes were full of smiles.
When Ximen Ao saw the person coming, he hesitated for a moment, but then Chu Beiyu strode forward and pushed him aside with disdain in his eyes, "Ximen Ao! You are so brave, you dare to sneak into the Marquis' Mansion without a post!"
"My dear cousin, what do you mean by this?"
Ximen Ao was confused for a moment by the question.
Seeing this, Ye Qingluo did not mind the big deal and exclaimed, "My Lord, are you saying that you did not invite cousin Ximen to the engagement party with the county lady this time?"
When Chu Beiyu heard Ye Qingluo calling Ximen Ao "cousin", he became even angrier.
Almost without thinking, he replied, "What cousin? Ye Qingluo, don't you take a closer look at this guy? Is he worthy of this?"
If it wasn't for his mother's sake, would Ximen Ao, a distant relative, be worthy of appearing in front of him?
It’s simply a fool’s errand!
Ximen Ao was suppressing his anger and didn't want to argue with Chu Beiyu at this time.
But who would have thought that Chu Beiyu's unworthiness instantly aroused his anger.
"My cousin, what do you mean by that? I was just about to ask you about the theft at the restaurant, but you kept saying I was unqualified. Do you think I came uninvited?"
Hearing the word stolen, Chu Beiyu felt inexplicably guilty and turned his face away, trying to change the subject.
"Is not it?"
Now that things have come to this, there is no need for him to be polite to Ximen Ao.
"My Lord, it's not right for you to say that. After all, cousin Ximen and you also have..."
"Ye Qingluo, stop interrupting!"
Chu Beiyu moved closer to her. Cuizhu realized something was wrong and quickly protected her wife.
"Hmph... I'll deal with you later!" Seeing this, Chu Beiyu lowered his voice and said to Ye Qingluo.
Ye Qingluo's eyes were full of mockery, and he could only sigh and say to Ximen Ao, "Cousin Ximen, you have seen the current situation."
"I can't help you with what you said."
"Ye Qingluo, didn't I tell you not to call him cousin?"
"You didn't listen to me!"
Ximen Ao was completely annoyed. He was not a tolerant person. If it wasn’t for Chu Beiyu’s identity as Marquis, he would not have taken it seriously!
"My Lord, it doesn't matter whether you admit it or not. I'm just going to ask you now if the silver stolen from the restaurant has anything to do with you?"
Chu Beiyu didn't expect Ximen Ao to dare to question him, "Ximen Ao, get this straight! Is Wangyue Restaurant yours?"
"Why should I answer you?"
Ximen Ao rolled up his sleeves, looking extremely unhappy, "So you admit it!"
"My Lord! This old man..."
The servant following Chu Beiyu was about to step forward to report when he heard a cry of surprise.
"Master Ximen, I recognize him! This is the man who was sneaking around the restaurant that day!"
"Then the ten thousand taels disappeared without a trace!"
Ye Qingluo did not forget to add fuel to the fire while watching the show, pretending to be surprised and said, "You mean to say that the ten thousand taels were taken by the Marquis?"
"That's impossible. This requires evidence..."
"Madam, is it the Marquis... I don't know, but I can be sure that the stolen ten thousand taels are related to this man!"
Ximen Ao instantly gained confidence and was even more certain that the theft was caused by Chu Beiyu.
"My Lord, should you give me an explanation for this matter?"
"Otherwise, with so many guests here today, I can't guarantee what I will do."
Chu Beiyu was already angry, and after hearing the threat in Ximen Ao's words, he strode forward and kicked him.
Ximen Ao couldn't withstand Chu Beiyu's kick and fell directly to the ground, spurting out a mouthful of blood.
"Ao'er!"
Old Madam Du was already extremely anxious when she heard the news that Ximen Ao was beaten, but she didn't expect to see Chu Beiyu kicking her hard when she arrived here.
"Mom, he..." Ximen Ao wanted to say something, but fainted the next second.
"Eldest sister, I came here specially because I heard that today is the day Bei Yu and the county lady of Shangshu Mansion are getting engaged. This is how you treat me and Ao'er!"
Old Madam Chu was also stunned by this scene. She was already shocked enough when she heard that Ye Qingluo had beaten someone.
Who would have thought that Bei Yu would...
"Bei Yu, what are you waiting for? Come over here and apologize to your aunt!"
"And your cousin Simon...you...!"
Old Madam Chu was angry and annoyed, but she couldn't say a harsh word to Chu Beiyu.
Although Chu Beiyu was unwilling, seeing that someone had fainted, he didn't want to make a big deal out of it, so he carried Ximen Ao out through the back door under the pretext of treating him.
"Ye Qingluo, he will send you back to youth..." Chu Beiyu was about to give an order, but there was no sign of Ye Qingluo nearby.
"My Lord, where do you want to send Young Master Ximen?"
"Any clinic!"
Chu Beiyu said this with gritted teeth. If it were before, he could have just thrown the person to Huichuntang without asking for permission.
But now Huichuntang has a plaque bestowed by the emperor. If we do this again, the consequences will be even more troublesome than they are now.
Old Madam Chu also understood the seriousness of the matter. She persuaded Mrs. Du with all her might and gave her a lot of gifts.
When Mrs. Du heard that Ximen Ao was sent to the clinic and took a bunch of good things from Old Madam Chu, she gave up.
"Eldest sister, I have to say this in advance. My Ao'er was fine when he came, but now he has become like this and it's Bei Yu..."
Mrs. Du glanced at Chu Beiyu who was standing outside, her tone filled with strong dissatisfaction.
"If anything happens, you must take full responsibility."
"Don't worry, we will pay for the medical treatment during this period."
"no!"
Chu Beiyu, who was already worried about money, refused sternly after hearing this. He wanted to continue talking, but was scolded by Madam Chu.
Mrs. Du snorted coldly, and only gave up after being comforted by Old Madam Chu.
During this period, the person who was most shocked was Su Wan. She originally wanted to embarrass Ye Qingluo today, but who would have thought that things would turn out like this.
"My Lord, Minister Su invites you to come over."
When the servant's report came, Chu Beiyu glanced at Mrs. Du and his mother, fearing that the other party would mention the matter of the silver again.
"My Lord, you go first, I will take care of this."
Su Wan saw the opportunity and came to Chu Beiyu and comforted him softly.
Chu Beiyu's gloomy expression gradually calmed down, "Thank you for your hard work."
"Remember never to let them mention silver."
He hadn't yet pursued Ximen Ao's rude remarks, but the other party still dared to ask him for money!
"Wan'er understands."
……
"Madam, you said that Master Ximen would not have already..."
"Don't worry, I won't die."
After returning to his residence, Ye Qingluo picked up the tea that Cuizhu had just poured and took a sip.
"What do you think of today's show?"
"play……"
Cuizhu opened her eyes wide, and felt terrified when she thought of what happened in the bamboo forest. Could it be...? !
"Ma'am, didn't you know this would happen?"
"And the 10,000 taels stolen from Wangyue Restaurant is really related to the Marquis?"
"But this is too..."
