The Su family has been having troubles one after another recently. The third master of the Su family drank wine and died at the hands of the kiln sister. The room of the third girl of the Su family was haunted. The master of the Su family's star concubine was beaten into the father-in-law. The master of the Su family was tortured by these bad things.
die.
Now, the entire Su family is still anxiously waiting for the emperor's fate, but something happened to the Su family again.
The cause of trouble this time was the second room of the Su family. Xu Xiuyi was invited over by Mrs. Su early in the morning. When she entered Mrs. Su's room, she saw that Mrs. Su was sobbing incessantly, as if she was suffering from pain.
What a huge grievance.
The second master of the Su family had a livid face, and the old lady of the Su family also had a very ugly face.
Seeing Xu Xiuyi, the old lady of the Su family asked in a serious tone: "Jin Yi said, you drove away the old people on the cabinet and sealed Baoning Hall?"
Before Xu Xiuyi could speak, Mrs. Su Jiang wiped away her tears and said, "Mom, everyone is saying that she did this because those guys just listened to Jin Yi. Mother, think about it, she just came to the counter and said nothing.
Understand, of course those guys would go to Jin Yi if they had anything to do with her. She just wasn’t happy about it, so she drove them away. Mother, this boss is not just a kid playing house. If one of them is unhappy, they will make each other angry. This
It is the foundation of our Su family, and she is trying to make a bet with Jin Yi by trying to bring down our Baoning Hall."
When Mrs. Su heard this, her face turned dark and she looked at Xu Xiuyi coldly: "Kneel down."
Xu Xiuyi really wanted to curse her, but after all, she had all the memories of the rules of this era in her bones, so she held it back.
She knelt down on her knees, but her spine was straight against the wallpaper and her head was raised very high.
Mrs. Su asked sternly: "Before your father died, he entrusted the entire Su family to you. Is this how you repay your father's trust in you?"
Before Xu Xiuyi could speak again, Su Jiang rushed to speak: "Mother, I also heard that she and Ah Fu on the counter were flirting with each other. The few people who didn't leave were the ones who persuaded Ah Fu to stay.
After she came down, they also made some kind of contract, saying that it was for processing money, and she would be given an extra tael of silver during the New Year. She is obviously a prodigal, and everyone knows that the wages of our Baoning Hall are already top-notch."
The old lady's face turned from black to green. Su Jiang complained angrily, with runny nose and tears, while looking at Xu Xiuyi from under the handkerchief, with a look of pride in her eyes.
Although Su Jinyi didn't say a word from beginning to end, her expression kept changing on the old lady's face, and now she was looking at Xu Xiuyi with a joking look on her face.
Xu Xiuyi felt that these two people were hopeless. The scheming had reached a certain level. It happened that the old lady was usually very shrewd, but today she seemed to have taken the wrong medicine. Just listening to Su Jiang's one-sided words, she was stunned.
Without hearing a word from Xu Xiuyi, Xu Xiuyi was about to be thrown into "death row".
"I don't think you should be fooled by your family. It's such a mess."
Xu Xiuyi finally understood this sentence. It turned out that this was the reason why a shrewd person like the old lady was showing off her face without asking any questions.
The old lady asked her to hand over the power of being the head of the family. However, the old lady still couldn't let go of this power. On the surface, she followed the master's last words carefully and told everyone to listen to Xu Xiuyi's arrangements in the future. In fact, she still didn't have the desire for power in her heart.
I am willing to hand over the power to Xu Xiuyi.
If things were normal, Xu Xiuyi would like to return the right to be the head of the house to the old lady. At least if the old lady is the head of the house, then the second wife will not be able to be arrogant, take advantage, and endanger her interests.
But today, she couldn't turn aside. She suffered such great resentment. How could she be like a pig's head, being kicked here and there without any resistance?
She immediately lowered her head, followed Su Jiang's example, took out her handkerchief, and wiped the corners of her eyes: "Mother, you don't know. Why our Baoning Hall closed down is because there is a shortage of several medicinal materials, but there is really no place to purchase them.
"
"When Jin Yi was on the counter, nothing like this had ever happened." Su Jiang had sharp teeth. She dared to say this. It seemed that they were already prepared for Su Jinyi's drive-up of drug prices.
She was over-prepared. Xu Xiuyi never wanted to reveal this matter in front of the old lady. Come to think of it, even though the old lady was in seclusion, fasting and chanting Buddha, how could she not interfere at all in the pharmacy?
Xu Xiuyi already understood what the old lady meant today. The old lady was not willing to let her be the head of the family, and wanted to force her to hand over her right to be the head of the family.
Therefore, the old lady of Bao Buqi had long known about Su Jinyi's alliance with drug dealers to drive up drug prices, but she was just sitting back and watching the fight, hoping to reap the benefits.
Therefore, she would not mention this matter, but she had to remind the old lady and the entire Su family about another matter.
"I have already been exhausted mentally and physically because of this matter. The people at the counter are dissatisfied with me, and the people outside are slandering me with these and other things. The inability to purchase medicinal materials has led to the closure of Baoning Hall. Mother, to be honest, I am too tired."
Seeing that the eyes of the three people in front of him were all shining to varying degrees, Xu Xiuyi sighed: "It just so happens that my maternal grandfather is not in good health these days. I want to go back and take a look, but I can't find the time to do it. My mother asked me to pay
It was not an easy thing for me to become the head of the family, so I took Tuanzi back to my parents' house to stay for a few days. My father went to court every day, so I could inquire about the two masters of our family in the palace.
Let my father find out what the emperor's father-in-law said and see what the emperor wants to do to our Su family, so that I can ask Jin Yu to come back and inform you so that you can be prepared."
She lit up the fire at will, roasted a hot potato and threw it on the old lady of the Su family and Su Jinyi.
The old lady of the Su family had not originally planned to take back the right to be the head of the family so quickly. She had been thinking about taking back the right to be the head of the family after the Su family's disaster was over and Xu Xiuyi had no use value anymore.
It was Su Jinyi and his wife who came to make a fuss like that in the morning. She felt that Xu Xiuyi was really not suitable to be the head of the family. I was afraid that the Su family would have been defeated before the emperor's imperial edict came down to deal with the Su family.
She felt clear in her heart, knowing that everything Su Jiang said was bullshit and went so far as to slander Xu Xiuyi. Everything in this pharmacy was caused by Su Jinyi. She was originally waiting for Xu Xiuyi to beg her when she couldn't bear it anymore, but she always knew that
Xu Xiuyi is the head of the family, but secretly she is a marionette and continues to hold the power.
She never expected that Xu Xiuyi could be so cunning and speak so euphemistically in one sentence, yet she could make the meaning clear with every word.
She said she wanted to go back to her parents' home, she said she wanted her father to talk to her, and she said she wanted Jinyu to come back and inform - "you".
What she knew clearly meant that she was not from the Su family, and whatever happened to the Su family had nothing to do with her.
She has the protection of her mother-in-law, so she has nothing to fear.
But the Su family...
Without Xu Xiuyi, the entire in-laws of the Duke Protector's Mansion would be gone.
Perhaps Xu Xiuyi was driven into a hurry, and if the fifth prince asked her to go away again, and said angrily that the Su family deserved it, then the Su family would be really doomed.
Mrs. Su and Su Jinyi both believed it. Xu Xiuyi could persuade the Fifth Prince to intercede, and she could also understand why the Fifth Prince was adding insult to injury.
At this moment, no one dared to speak anymore.
The old lady of the Su family got up first and came over to help her.
"What are you talking about? You will inevitably encounter situations when you first become the head of the family. Mom just said a few angry words. After all, Baoning Hall is your father's hard work. Now that your father's body is still cold, Baoning Hall has closed. How can Mom be happy?"
There were two packs of tears in his eyes as he spoke.
Xu Xiu recalled that Mrs. Su was really good at pretending, but she really had to wear a mask to live in the Su family. There were intrigues, intrigues, and intrigues between sisters-in-law and uncles and sisters-in-law.
Between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, she originally thought that life would be very boring, but now it seems that it is quite interesting.
This sentence is naturally ironic. She has been depressed by the Su family's kindness. Only because of Mrs. Su's will, she can't just let go of the Su family.
Moreover, she has a sense of arrogance in her bones, and she must do it in Baoningtang. The harder others suppress her, the more she will not admit defeat.
Seeing what Old Mrs. Su said, she took the opportunity to give Old Mrs. Su a step up.
"It's my wife's fault, but I promise that if you give me three months, I will make Baoning Hall more prosperous than before. If I can't do it, I will immediately hand over the power of the family and consider myself incompetent."
She said this, what else could Mrs. Su have to complain about?
Even Su Jinyi could only feel angry, but no longer dared to say unpleasant words to his wife.
Xu Xiuyi only thought it was funny. Su Jinyi couldn't fight him, and wanted to win over Old Mrs. Su. But it was obvious that Su Jinyi could see Old Mrs. Su's thoughts, otherwise he wouldn't have dared to slander Xu Xiuyi in front of the old lady.
But Xu Xiuyi reminded him yesterday not to force her to let go of the Su family. He thought that Mrs. Su could calm Xu Xiuyi, which was a joke.
