Chapter 85 The Guild

Hearing what Mr. Tang said, Shen Mingshu and Wei Min looked at each other, Wei Min nodded, signaling her to rest assured, Shen Mingshu was slightly relieved, and it will be up to Wei Min next.

Mr. Tang sent people to deliver letters to each house, and after a while, several carriages stopped outside the guild gate, and several masters who were famous in Yangzhou City walked into the hall together. He was also puzzled, why such an urgent matter, seeing Shen Mingshu and Wei Min sitting under Mr. Tang's head, and the people kneeling under their heads, he naturally had speculations in his heart.

Shen Mingshu and Wei Min got up and saluted the masters of each family, and took their seats according to their seats. After all the families except the Wei family were present, Elder Tang explained the reason for today's gathering, and the next sitting Several people have different thoughts in their hearts.

Tang Lao took the expressions of the people sitting below him into his eyes, and said indifferently: "If the Wei family really uses such shady methods as Shen Mingshu and Wei Min said, the guild will definitely uphold justice."

All the shops in Yangzhou City are connected with each other. Hearing this, the two families who have always had a good relationship with the Wei family looked at each other with complicated expressions, as if they wanted to say something.

Elder Tang coughed and said: "But you can't just listen to one side of the story, so I have sent someone to invite Master Wei to come here and explain it clearly in person, please make a decision together."

Since Mr. Tang has already said that, the others are not in a hurry to say anything, they just nodded. Now that the Wei family is still in the future, everything has not yet been judged, so there is no need to rush to speak.

Not long after, the master of the Wei family brought Wei Xuan into the hall. They also rushed over after receiving the news, but when they saw Shen Mingshu and Wei Min, both master Wei and Wei Xuan's heart sank, and they had some bad premonitions.

After all, Master Wei has seen many things in the world, so he stabilized his expression, bowed to Mr. Tang and everyone present, and sat down in the seat reserved opposite Shen Mingshu and Wei Min.

When Mr. Tang saw that everyone had arrived, he ordered his servants to close the door of the hall, and everyone's hearts sank. This was the case in the past when the guilds discussed major issues.

Elder Tang glanced over everyone's faces, and said in a calm voice, "Since everyone is here, let's start."

He glanced at Shen Mingshu, looked at Master Wei, and asked: "Master Wei, Shen Mingshu, the eldest lady of the Shen family, said that the Wei family bought the people from Xuandong downstairs and stole black pearls for their own profit. Is there such a thing?"

Master Wei immediately said: "It's nonsense, full of blood, it was obviously my Wei family who helped."

Mr. Tang sent people to bring Feng Xin and the shopkeeper Lou out, and brought up the evidence Feng Xin had brought. Everything I knew was wiped out.

After hearing Feng Xin's testimony, the faces of the several masters present were all different, and they all looked at Master Wei, to see how he explained why the thief who stole had the steward's pipe in his hand, and was almost silenced by the Wei family ?

Before Master Wei could speak, Wei Xuan who was sitting next to him said: "These two are servants of the Shen family, so naturally Shen Mingshu wants them to say whatever they want. As for why there is a pipe in charge, it is natural It's because this person's hands are not clean, originally this Feng Xin was acquainted with a servant in my family, and stole the pipe on the pretext of coming to find him."

"Bah! It's a wolf-hearted thing," Feng Xin scolded immediately: "What is this pipe worth? If you want to steal it, I will also steal some other gold and silver jewelry. I just took such a thing to keep a handle."

Since kicking Wei Min out of the house and taking charge of the Wei family's business, Wei Xuan has been quite high-spirited these days, and his complexion suddenly became ugly after being scolded by such a servant.

That pipe looks beautiful, but it is really not worth much, and it is not easy to sell in Yangzhou City. You masters have your own calculations. Master Wei stopped Wei Xuan and said: "This is just one-sided words of this shameless thief. It can't be counted. What's more What's more, my Wei family has its own source of goods, so I don't need to steal from the Shen family, I didn't expect to be slandered like this last time when I sent charcoal in a hurry, Miss Shen's family is too much."

Before Shen Mingshu could speak, Wei Min stood up and said, "The Wei family does have supplies, but black pearls are rare. At that time, there was no box of black pearls in the Wei family's warehouse."

As early as when they came in, Master Wei and Wei Xuan saw Wei Min, and when they heard him speak for Shen Mingshu, Wei Xuan immediately said sarcastically, "Brother, when did you get bought by Shen's family, and you actually speak for outsiders?"

Wei Min looked at him calmly, and said, "I have to ask Master Wei, didn't he drive me out of the house because of you, a bastard? He also cruelly killed his wife, who is your own family."

Master Wei stared at Wei Min in disgust, and when he heard what he said, his face turned red and he scolded: "You unfilial bastard, how dare you say such a thing!"

In his heart, this eldest son is not smart, can't speak, can't do anything well, and he will only obey when he reprimands him, but he has to hand over the family property to him because of his son-in-law. The old woman took the eldest son out as well, but she didn't expect to sell him instead.

In the past, Wei Min was patient when he cared about his mother, but now there is no one he wants to protect. Seeing that Master Wei was angry, he just asked coldly, "Am I wrong?" Talking, looking at Tang Laodao: "Everything Wei Min said is true, there is still a lot of water in the Wei family's account books, please be sure to check it carefully."

Elder Tang looked at it coldly, and said, "Master Wei, you heard it too, can you let the people in the guild borrow the account books for the next year?"

If this was said by other people, I am afraid that not many people would believe it, but now that the young master of the Wei family said it, the credibility is much higher. The few masters here also know a little about Wei Min. A person who can play tricks and be good, otherwise he wouldn't be kicked out.

Master Wei's face was quite ugly, he stared at Wei Min as if he wanted to eat him alive, he thought it was just for the matter of the Shen family's black pearl, but he didn't expect to wait here, seeing that everyone present was staring at him, if he didn't agree , Is that how you recognize it?

Master Wei gritted his teeth and said, "I'm afraid..."

Old Tang's steady eyes fell on him, he took a sip of tea, and said lightly: "If Mr. Wei is worried about leaking out, there is no need for it. The people I sent are all safe and reliable people."

Master Wei originally wanted to procrastinate, but was interrupted by Mr. Tang, how could he tell, and the hall suddenly fell silent.

The two families with a good relationship with the Wei family looked at the current situation and did not dare to speak hastily. If the account books of the Wei family were not involved, this matter would be easy to talk about, but Wei Min exposed it like this, and the Wei family might not be able to deal with it in the future. up.

On the other hand, the old man who had a bad relationship with the Wei family on weekdays said with a smile: "It seems that nephew Wei Min's words are true. It's really unexpected."

What he said with a smile made Mr. Wei's face even more ugly. Wei Xuan had never been to a guild before, and he was not afraid of Mr. Tang. Hearing such a provocation, he couldn't help but said: "Mr. The young lady's group? How can there be any reason to show the account books of each family to outsiders at will?"

Master Wei's expression changed drastically, but the words had already been spoken, so there was nothing to stop them.

At this moment, Elder Tang gave a low laugh, and said, "Young master of the Wei family, can't you trust me?"

Master Wei knew that there was no room for turning back, so he simply said, "Mr. Tang, my son is abrupt, but the account books of the Wei family are really inconvenient for outsiders to check."

Elder Tang looked at him indifferently, and said, "Master Wei, do you recognize all of them?"

Master Wei gritted his teeth, and said: "I don't admit it, these are just one-sided remarks of the unfilial son, it is a private matter of the Wei family, Mr. Tang, can Wei and this unfilial son have a private discussion."

This is already playing a scoundrel, Wei Min had no intention of talking to Master Wei any more, so he simply turned his head and said nothing.

Elder Tang shook his head and said, "Master Wei, you should understand the rules of the guild, and now there is no chance for selfishness."

……

When Luo Xin woke up in a daze, the sky outside the window was already bright. Last night Shen Qingyue pulled her to talk and fell asleep when she was so sleepy. It was rare that she didn't wake up in the middle of the night.

Luo Xin changed her clothes by herself, opened the door and called Lan Yinin in, Lan Yin was waiting outside the door, when she saw her come out, she showed a gentle smile and bowed her knees, "Ma'am."

Luo Xin hurriedly helped her up, subconsciously looked at the next room, Lan Ying understood, and said with a smile: "The master went out early in the morning, and stood by the madam's door, saying that it's a bit hot today, order The servant reminds Madam to drink more mung bean soup to relieve the heat."

"Yeah." Luo Xin answered vaguely, her eyes lit up slightly, she pursed her lips, and watched the little maids bring in the washing things.

Lan Yin and others helped her clean and dress neatly. When she was sitting in front of the vanity mirror and pulling her hair, there was a light knock on the door. Luo Xin turned her head to look and smiled, "Qingyue, you're up."

When Shen Qingyue walked in, Lan Yin stepped aside and let Shen Qingyue stand behind Luo Xin. Luo Xin blinked at Shen Qingyue through the mirror, and saw that she took off a plain jade hairpin from her bun, Picked out a hairpin decorated with golden stamens from the dowry at the side, and slowly inserted it into the bun, with the corners of her lips curled up slightly, "Sister-in-law is still young, why don't she dress brighter."

Luo Xin looked at herself in the mirror, pursed her lips and smiled lightly, and said softly, "Well, thank you Qingyue."

Lan Yin stood by and waited. Seeing that Shen Qingyue was with her, Luo Xin's mood gradually improved, and she was also happy. She ordered the little maids to bring the breakfast prepared by the back kitchen.

After eating breakfast quietly, Shen Qingyue looked out the window, "Today is a fine day, why not go for a walk?"

Luo Xin thought for a while and asked, "Does Qingyue want to buy anything?"

Shen Qingyue also knew that she could spend a whole day upstairs alone, so she said angrily: "It's so boring to stay here every day, it's better to go out for a walk to relax."

Hearing what Shen Qingyue said, Luo Xin could only agree.
