MTL - The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor-Chapter 1091 Surgery
Chapter 1091 Surgery
The apparent owner of Jinxiu Textile is a wealthy businessman named Fang, but if the Fang family can establish a foothold in the capital and occupy half of the textile industry, how can there be no one behind it? The person behind this was none other than the Mu family who made Mo Yan wish for such bad luck.
At first, Xiao Ruiyuan only told Mo Yan that there was a backer behind Jinxiu Textile, but did not tell her who the backer was. Even now, she doesn't know that she has inadvertently offended the Mu family. According to the Mu family's style of conduct, this matter cannot be over like this.
In the side hall of the Mu family, Mr. Fang, the head of the Fang family, sat uneasily and looked at the door. Seeing that no one in charge of the Mu family had come out yet, he became more and more anxious. The sweat on his forehead seemed to be an endless stream. It seemed like it was flowing down the ravines on his face.
Two more moments passed and no one came. Master Fang was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. He couldn't help but said to the maid standing by: "Excuse me, miss, please go in and inform the second master. He said that the matter is extremely urgent. If there is any further delay." Go down and discover great things."
The maid raised her eyelids and reluctantly went down to report. However, before she could walk out of the door of the side hall, a man in dark red clothes who was just over 30 years old slowly walked over not far away.
This person is none other than Mr. Mu, who likes men, forced his first wife to death, and then remarried Fan Meijiao.
“Hey, Second Master, you’re finally here.” Master Fang, who was more than a round older than Second Master Mu, saw Second Master Mu as if he were his own father, and hurriedly went up to greet him.
"Um!"
Second Master Mu glanced at Mr. Fang arrogantly and snorted from his nose as a greeting.
Mr. Fang, who was able to influence everything in the business world, did not feel that there was anything wrong with Mr. Mu’s attitude towards him. When Mr. Mu entered the upper seat, he carefully sat down at the bottom, with his **** only touching a small part of the seat.
Mr. Mu leisurely picked up the newly brewed tea on the table and took a sip. Looking at Mr. Fang's impatient look, he asked, "Why did you come here in such a hurry?"
Mr. Fang was stunned for a moment, and after he came to his senses, he quickly said: "A big thing happened in the textile workshop, and the government needs to take action to overcome this difficulty." Then he told the story of what happened in the textile workshop last night. Again.
The workers of Jinxiu Textile did such outrageous things, and now one of them is dead and another is injured, still in such a strange way. Not to mention how people outside view the textile workshop and the Fang family, now all the workers in the workshop have been taken to the Yamen , there is no one working so that the cloth dealers cannot pick up the goods on time.
What's even more serious is that the twenty-three cloth manufacturers actually used this as an excuse to tear up the previous supply agreement and refuse to take goods from Jinxiu Textile. They also came to the Fang family with orders one after another, demanding that the Fang family Return their deposit and, in accordance with the written agreement, require Jinxiu Textile to compensate them three times the full amount.
In the twenty-three cloth shops, the minimum deposit is more than 1,000 taels, the maximum is 30,000 taels, and the deposit alone is 100,000 taels. Although this 100,000 taels of deposit is nothing to the Fang family, which has a large business, but if the compensation is three times the full amount, it will be a full 600,000 taels. How can the Fang family come up with so much money? Even if the compensation is ruined, the compensation is not enough.
Competitors who are quick to respond are also trying to fish in troubled waters, taking the opportunity to win over these cloth shops and seize the customers of Jinxiu Textile. This is undoubtedly an attempt to completely crush Jinxiu Textile.
Mr. Fang turned his head anxiously, and then hurried to the Mu family, asking the Mu family to come forward and deter those cloth shops who wanted to ask for compensation. The previous business transactions would continue, otherwise, without orders, Jinxiu Textile would be left with nothing but an empty shell. , it will still be finished.
After hearing this, Mr. Mu’s face suddenly darkened, and his brows were furrowed as if they could kill a fly. He looked at Mr. Fang who looked hopeful and asked coldly: "Why didn't you report it in time when such a big thing happened?"
It's true that Jinxiu Textile's surname is Fang, but the Mu family takes half of the annual profits. It can be said that the Mu family is more reluctant than the Fang family to let this textile shop that lays "golden eggs" close down.
Now that such a major event happened in the textile mill, Mr. Mu did not receive any news. The anger that was stimulated by the imminent collapse of the textile mill was unceremoniously transferred to Mr. Fang. He did not think that he was lagging behind in the news. , only caring about having fun with the few little brats raised in the backyard.
Mr. Fang didn't dare to complain, so he quickly apologized to the second master Mu: "As for the second master, I didn't expect the matter to be so serious. I thought I could solve it without disturbing the second master. I hope the second master can atone for his sins."
Although Mr. Fang actively admitted his mistake, Mr. Mu's face still didn't look good. He is in charge of the general affairs of the family with no hope of career, and he is already a head lower than the head of the family. Now that the matter has reached this point, it is not something that he can solve alone. He has to ask the head of the family. Doesn't this mean that he is handing the handle to the head of the family? In the hands of the first room, let the people of the first room ridicule their second room?
It’s **** good that Mr. Mu’s face looks good.
Master Fang looked at the sullen and silent Master Mu with trepidation, and in his heart he hated the culprits Shi Laosi and Gou Guanshi to the extreme.
Mr. Fang had heard about what these two people did in the textile workshop, but he thought it was not a big deal. The children who were victimized were all humble people who were bought with real money. Even if they died, it would not matter. I didn't take it to heart. As a result, this negligence caused a big mess. If he had known this, he would never have condoned these two people.
After a long time, Mr. Mu spoke again, but he asked Mr. Fang: "What do you think of this murder case? Do you also think that an innocent man is seeking his life?"
"This..." Mr. Fang wiped the sweat from his forehead and didn't know how to answer.
Like the workers in the textile mill, he also believed that Shi Laosi and Gou Guanshi were the victims of revenge. Otherwise, if there were so many people, how could something happen to them while everyone else was fine? But when Second Master Mu asked this question, he obviously didn't want to hear the answer "yes", and he hesitated for a moment.
As soon as Mr. Mu saw it, he knew what Master Fang was thinking. He couldn't help but snorted coldly: "An injustice is asking for life? If there really is an injustice asking for life, how many people in the world would have died unexpectedly! This matter is simply... The salary is either for your Fang family or for my Mu family."
Mr. Fang was startled. He hesitated for a moment and said, "Probably not. Who can control owls and poisonous snakes to kill people?"
Moreover, if it is really aimed at these two families, why not attack them directly? This method of killing people is difficult to guard against. Wouldn't it be easier to do so?
This is what Second Master Mu couldn't figure out. He thought about it for a moment, and then the other master said: "Now that the matter has come to an end, we can only ask the eldest brother to come forward. When the eldest brother comes back from the office, I will explain the situation to him! You want to What we need to do is to thoroughly investigate the actions of Gou Guanshi and Shi Laosi to see if the two of them have any disputes with others, and whether this unexpected encounter is man-made revenge."
Mr. Fang felt a chill in his heart and quickly responded: "Yes, I'll do it now."
…
Xiao Ruiyuan received Mo Yan's letter and after reading the entire incident in detail, he no longer knew what to say. Now that the matter is being publicized, there is no way to cover it up. Once someone is aware of it, it will inevitably lead to a lot of bad suspicions.
Thinking of the real master of Jinxiu Textile, Xiao Ruiyuan frowned and called Xiao Shiyi in: "Today, one of Jinxiu Textile's dead and one injured, dead and alive, were all taken to the Yamen. Please pay attention to what is going on in the Yamen, and then send someone to the Yamen." I want to find out if these two people have committed any crime, and if it is possible, I will completely blame the matter on the revenge of wronged souls."
"Yes, I will do it now!" Xiao Shiyi didn't know the reason, but it did not prevent him from obeying the order.
After Xiao Shiyi left, Xiao Ruiyuan wrote a letter back to Mo Yan. The letter told her not to worry, he would solve everything by himself and he would never let what she was worried about happen.
After finishing these things, Xiao Ruiyuan did not have any leisure time. Taking advantage of his free time at noon, he went to the Prince's Mansion.
For some things, he had to prepare for the worst. Although the Mu family knew what they were doing and gradually moved towards the prince's palace after the collapse of the Lin family, their cousin's position as the prince was now stable and there was no need for such a wallflower. Instead, they had done a lot of taboo things in private. Shaking it out will definitely affect the reputation that my cousin has finally accumulated.
In this case, it would be better for him to be the knife to remove this cancer that will break out at some point. This time, it's a good opportunity.
Mo Yan felt a lot more at ease when she received the letter.
"I didn't expect this kid to be quite generous. He took the initiative to take this matter on himself. Seeing that he is sincere to you." Xue Tuanzi didn't think that the matter was a big deal at all. He just saw Xiao Ruiyuan being so serious. said, giving a rare compliment.
Mo Yan's mood has improved a lot now, and it's rare that she didn't quarrel with Xue Tuanzi: "Brother Xiao's heart has never been false. It's you who have always viewed him with prejudice."
Snow Tuanzi once had two owners who were so confused by love that they easily believed in men and told the biggest secret of space to their so-called favorite people. As a result, one of the two men was imprisoned and died in depression, and the other could not bear the betrayal and committed suicide. The end was extremely miserable.
For this reason, Xue Tuanzi sneered at the so-called love and always had a skeptical attitude towards Xiao Ruiyuan. He often reminded Mo Yan not to tell anyone the secret of space. As long as she didn't say it herself, even if it was discovered accidentally, it would still have a way to solve the secret of keeping the space.
After listening to Mo Yan's words, Xue Tuanzi hummed and said: "A moment of sincerity is nothing. If he can still maintain a normal heart after knowing the secret of space, then he will be truly worth cherishing for the rest of his life. However, you must not Be stupid and use space to test him.”
At the end, Xue Tuanzi reminded uneasily. It was really fed up with all the love and affection, and its previous two owners had completely broken its heart, so that in addition to meeting the various conditions for activating the ancient jade, it was also very important to choose an owner later.
When it chose Mo Yan, the most important thing it valued was her nine-life merit. Another point was that she lived until twenty-five in that world, never fell in love, and did not live and die for a man like many young people. This makes it particularly special. rest assured.
However, it has never thought about it. The reason why its owner is not in love is because she is worried that she will die at any time and does not want to leave another living person in pain. This is related to whether she will lose her principles for a man and say things she shouldn't say. Secret, there is no direct causal relationship.
Mo Yan rubbed the snow dumplings and said solemnly: "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone the secret of space, and neither will Brother Xiao."
No matter what method you use to test whether the person you love truly loves you, it is a stupid thing to do, because even you yourself cannot guarantee that you will successfully pass the test without betraying the other person, so how can you expect others to do the same?
Perception that Mo Yan's words were not to deal with him, Xue Tuanzi rubbed her face affectionately with his fleshy body, expressing satisfaction with her answer.
…
People in the yamen have asked the sober stewards and workers several times, but nothing new has come up except revenge. There was no clear news in the yamen, and the revenge incident of Jinxiu Textile continued to ferment and became more and more intense.
The world is very taboo about ghosts and gods. Once something unexplainable happens, they usually turn to this aspect. People are always very enthusiastic about such things. Therefore, this kind of thing spreads widely and has a great impact. Sometimes similar things happening in Jiangnan can reach the capital in less than half a year.
Of course, what the people in the capital usually hear is another, more exaggerated and terrifying version!
Based on this incident, a storyteller asked someone to write a story with full of emotions and flesh and blood. As a result, the teahouse became lively again, and within three days, slightly exaggerated stories could be heard in the streets and alleys.
When some ministers in the court heard about this incident, most of them just listened and did not pay attention to the lives of two low-status workers. Those censors are different. They have a very keen "sense" of public affairs, and they usually discover big problems in an inadvertent moment.
This time is no exception. No, a royal censor accidentally discovered that the Mu family supported Jinxiu Textile, and wrote a thousand-word excerpt to join the Mu family.
The general content is that the Mu family allowed the workers of the Fang family to commit evil acts, even the children. They were simply worse than animals. If there is no severe punishment, it will definitely encourage this kind of trend. If things go on like this, more children will be brutally murdered by evil people, leading to a decline in the world, boiling public resentment, and a serious problem for the family and the country!
Although it is a bit exaggerated, the harm is true. Once some bad things start and are not curbed, more people will inevitably follow suit. Who knows that the collapse of rituals and music slowly starts from these things. If one day people become numb to this kind of thing, it means that the world has become filthy.
Emperor Hui'an was deeply shocked after seeing it. He really didn't know that such a filthy and vicious thing could happen under the emperor's feet. So he ordered people to thoroughly investigate whether the incident was true or false, and if it was true, he would be severely punished.
In this way, the focus of the matter quietly changed under the impetus of a pair of invisible hands. Except for the common people who are particularly enthusiastic about such supernatural things, most people began to dig into the potential darkness of this incident.
After all, the Mu family's response was a step too late. When they thought of a countermeasure and tried to save the crumbling Jinxiu Textile, the eldest son of the Mu family was severely reprimanded by Emperor Hui'an in front of all the civil and military officials and ordered him to stop. After all the errands, go home and think about your mistakes.
As for when he can resume his official duties, it depends on Emperor Hui'an's mood.
The eldest son of the Mu family is the second-rank official, and is the highest-ranking member of the Mu family in the court. Being demoted and losing his official position is undoubtedly a heavy blow to the entire Mu family.
However, a lean camel is bigger than a horse, and many of the Cui family's children are serving as officials in the court. No one knows whether Uncle Mu will one day return to the court, so when the Mu family members go out, no one deliberately ridicule.
However, the good times did not last long. I don’t know since when, the children of the Mu family were suppressed overtly and covertly in the court. In less than half a year, some were demoted from official positions, some were promoted openly and secretly, and some were sent to remote places. As an official in a certain place, he is not yet the leader in charge of power.
It was not until that time that the Mu family realized that someone was secretly stumbling upon their Mu family, but they could not find out who the person behind it was or what their purpose was.
A crisis disappeared like this. Mo Yan hugged Xiao Ruiyuan in emotion, not knowing how to express her gratitude.
Xiao Ruiyuan enjoyed his fiancée throwing himself into her arms and became more and more open-minded in front of her. He didn't know how other unmarried couples got along with each other on weekdays, but every time they met, he liked this kind of physical contact. It seemed that only in this way could he truly feel that the person he loved was by his side instead of waking up in the middle of the night. He was alone in the world.
The two hugged each other for a long time, and Mo Yan's legs were numb from standing, so she had to step away, took Xiao Ruiyuan's hand, and sat down by the bed, "I just now know that the people behind Jinxiu Textile are the Mu family. Speaking of the Mu family, They are my family’s enemies!”
When Xiao Ruiyuan heard this, he was very surprised: "How do you say that?"
Mo Yan played with Xiao Ruiyuan's big, rough-jointed hands and said with disgust: "Zhao'er and Sheng'er were originally surnamed Mu, and they are the eldest sons and grandsons of the Mu family. However, those surnamed Mu are not the same thing. They don't treat the brothers and sisters at all. My own children. The brother and sister were forced to escape. By chance, they met me, so I brought them back, and my father recognized them as adopted sons and daughters."
Xiao Ruiyuan suddenly realized it, and then touched Mo Yan's head and said with a smile: "This time, I have vented my bad breath for them both."
Mo Yan nodded, and then shook his head: "Zhao'er has always wanted to be successful. In the future, he will go back to the Mu family to personally seek justice for his mother who died out of hatred. If she knows about the changes in the Mu family, she will feel better."
Xiao Ruiyuan shook his head and reminded: "Don't tell me that it's related to me, or let him think that the Mu family is unhappy with retribution."
Mo Yan didn’t understand what he meant. Seeing that Xiao Ruiyuan didn’t mean to explain, he didn’t ask any more questions...
