Chapter 705: The butler of Shangshu Mansion came to the door
Unexpectedly, the next day, when the housekeeper went to urge Huo Yirong to return the betrothal gift from Shangshu Mansion early in the morning, Huo Yirong fell out and scolded the housekeeper for disturbing her to rest...
"Butler, you unlucky guy, come here early in the morning to urge me. If I have bad luck today, I will kill you."
The housekeeper was about to cry but his master kept urging him to handle this matter. As a slave, he did not dare to neglect.
But the eldest lady uses her power to suppress others.
He's a minion, and it's really hard to be caught in the middle.
At this time, the eldest young master of the Huo family, Huo Shaotian, came back with his book boy, smelling of alcohol. As soon as he entered the door, he squinted his drunken eyes and said to Huo Yirong...
"Sister, sooner or later the betrothal gift from the Shangshu Mansion will be returned to others, so you should hand it over to the housekeeper as soon as possible. The provincial father will be sued by the Shangshu to the Jinluan Palace. Then your sin will be serious."
Huo Yirong became angry when he saw his younger brother. His mother loved him very much and was always worried that he would make a mistake. It was fine when his mother was alive. But since his death, this younger brother has let himself go and runs away every now and then. Yihongyuan fools around.
No, I came back from playing all night again and didn’t even read a book.
So, she said angrily...
"Shaotian, you'd better take care of yourself. If you don't come back all night, you'll hang out in Yihongyuan all day long. Be careful and you'll get very sick. You won't have time to regret it by then."
At this time, Huo Shaotian was really drunk and blurted out mockingly...
"Sister, aren't you from the same Yihongyuan family? You serve men the same way. Why do you look down on the girls from Yihongyuan? Is it because they stole your business? Hahahaha..."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone present turned pale.
Everyone in the Taiwei Mansion knows that the eldest lady's temperament has changed drastically since she came back from Yihongyuan. She will go into a rage if anyone dares to mention her unbearable past, and no one can control it.
"Pah." Sure enough, as soon as Huo Shaotian finished speaking, Huo Yirong slapped him on the face.
"Sister, what are you doing? Are you crazy?" Huo Shaotian put his hand to cover his cheek and looked at Huo Yirong in disbelief. After receiving this slap, he woke up and said fiercely...
"He's your biological brother. You beat up your biological brother. Do you still have any humanity?"
Huo Yirong's eyes stared at Huo Shaotian like fire, and he said word by word...
"You also know that he is my biological brother. I thought he was an enemy. Otherwise, why would you always expose my scars?"
"Uh..." At this moment, Huo Tianshao woke up and knew that he was at fault first. However, the eldest young master was used to it. He had always been aloof and was not used to apologizing to others. He snorted coldly and led his subordinates. The people walked away in a big way.
Huo Yirong was so angry that he cried.
The butler stood aside, at a loss.
However, he also knew that he should not force the eldest lady to return things at this time, and let her calm down before talking.
So, he quietly retreated.
Huo Yirong breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the housekeeper gone.
At this time, the maid Xiaohong came back in a hurry with a small box in her hand. As soon as they met, she said excitedly...
"Miss, it's done. It's successful. Come and have a look."
After finishing speaking, she placed the small box on the table, then raised her sleeves and wiped the sweat from her forehead.
In order to make this counterfeit, she stayed up all night and watched the master craftsman in the jewelry shop finish it, then took it back immediately.
Hearing this, Huo Yirong glanced nervously in the direction of the door to make sure the housekeeper was far away. Then he opened the jewelry box and took out a gold necklace with a piece of Hetian jade hanging from it. He looked at it carefully and was satisfied. He nodded and said...
"Well, that's right. It looks really similar. If I didn't look carefully, I wouldn't be able to tell whether it's real or fake."
The maid said with a flattering smile: "Miss, let's go to the Shangshu Mansion and retreat now, so as to save you a long night and many dreams."
Huo Yirong was publicly humiliated by Zhao Shangshu yesterday. He said that he didn't want to go anymore today, so he just asked his personal maid to take the things and return them.
They are all fake anyway.
Even if she lost it, she wouldn't feel bad.
"Okay, that slave will go first." The maid nodded, took the box, and hurried out again.
As for the Shangshu Mansion, they never dreamed that Huo Yirong was so bold and dared to fool them with fake goods. After they received the returned gold necklace, they did not lock it in the warehouse.
After all, this is the eldest young master’s belongings since childhood.
Therefore, the housekeeper put it away temporarily and returned it to the eldest young master when he came back.
As soon as Huo Yirong's maid left, Zhao Shangshu came back, looked at the housekeeper and asked...
"I seemed to have seen the carriage of the Taiwei Mansion passing by in front of our house just now. What happened?"
The housekeeper stood aside and said respectfully...
"Master, you read that right, it is indeed someone from the Taiwei Mansion who has come."
After finishing speaking, he took out the gold necklace, handed it to Zhao Shangshu, and said...
"They are here to cancel the bride price."
Zhao Shangshu took it and glanced at it. Suddenly, he was stunned. Then he quickly picked up the gold necklace from the box, observed it carefully, his face changed greatly, and he said...
"Steward, you have been deceived. This is not an heirloom of our Zhao family."
When the housekeeper heard this, he was scared to death and asked quickly...
"Master, did you see it wrong? I have read it several times. This gold necklace is indeed real."
Zhao Shangshu looked very serious and said...
"The gold necklace is real, but this Hetian jade is fake."
He had worn this thing since he was born, and passed it on to him after his eldest son was born. There is no mistaking it.
The housekeeper was dumbfounded.
He never imagined in his wildest dreams that the Taiwei Mansion would be so despicable and shameless, even greedy for the betrothal gift after withdrawing from the family, and still using this method of subcontracting. It was really irritating, so he said angrily...
"Master, it is unreasonable for me to go to the Taiwei Mansion to seek justice now. They have gone too far."
Zhao Shangshu nodded and said...
"I have to go. If this matter cannot be resolved, I will go to the Jinluan Palace and tell the emperor that since the Taiwei Mansion is shameless, I don't need to show shame to him."
"Yes, I will go right away." The butler promised, took the gold necklace, and took the two servants to the carriage aggressively and arrived at the Taiwei's Mansion.
Coincidentally, after the maid Xiaohong came back from delivering things to the Shangshu Mansion, Huo Yirong was addicted to drugs, so she asked her to go to Mr. Zhuang to get the wealth ointment.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she reached the gate, she looked up and saw the housekeeper of Shangshu Mansion, holding a jewelry box in his hand, angrily walking down from the carriage, and she was shocked.
Oops, maybe the secret of the gold necklace has been discovered.
It must be, otherwise, why would the butler come to the door with a jewelry box?
Xiaohong was very smart and immediately turned around and ran back to the eldest lady's yard...
"Miss, it's not good, it's not good, something happened."
Huo Yirong was sitting on the dressing table, yawning profusely, waiting anxiously for the maid to get the wealth ointment back.
When I saw her leaving and coming back, she looked ugly and cursed...
"Xiaohong, didn't I tell you to go to Master Zhuang to get the wealth ointment? Why don't you go quickly? Why are you coming back?"
"You are still panicking. Who is bad? Who is bad?"
Huo Yirong was addicted to drugs and was suffering. When he saw that the maid refused to get the wealth ointment, he immediately got angry.
Xiaohong was scolded by the eldest lady. She felt very aggrieved and said breathlessly...
"Miss, I was about to go out when I noticed that the housekeeper from Shangshu Mansion came with a jewelry box. He probably discovered the secret of the gold necklace. What should we do?"
"Huh?" Huo Yirong was stunned. This was also fatal. If her father found out that she had stolen the Zhao family's heirloom, it would be strange if he didn't kill her. He quickly asked...
"Where is the butler of Shangshu Mansion now?"
Maid Xiaohong: "It's at the gate."
Huo Yirong stood up suddenly and said quickly: "Quick, go to the gate and stop him. Don't let him in."
After saying that, she picked up the hem of her skirt with both hands and walked out quickly.
