"This girl has a crazy nature, perverse behavior, and violates the principles of human ethics. She is hopeless. We, the Su family, who are studying in the world, cannot tolerate her. We should deal with her properly. I will take care of the losses caused by her wanton behavior." The Su family has no shirk, and everything is at the discretion of the general, without any objection."
Hearing that Gongsun Ming obviously wanted to get to the bottom of it, cold sweat started to pour down from Suning's forehead. It was obvious that this peer in front of him was too cruel. The Wang family, which had been passed down for hundreds of years, was destroyed overnight. After destroying the door, the lessons learned from the past are not far away. How could Suning dare to offend Gongsun Ming in public? Although he felt bitter in his heart, he could only bite the bullet and express his position.
"So, your Su family doesn't plan to keep Miss Kou Lan anymore, am I wrong?"
Gongsun Ming has always been quick-witted. After answering several times like this, he already had a solid solution in his mind. However, he was not in a hurry to show it out. Instead, he asked a question calmly. road.
"yes."
Keep? For the disaster that Kou Lan caused, Suning wanted to kill him with a thousand knives. How could he be spared another miserable life? As far as Suning was concerned, not to mention just Kou Lan, it would be sacrificing himself. , as long as it can be exchanged for Gongsun Ming's understanding, it will be considered earned.
"Well, I got it, Ling Feng, go to the accounting room immediately and bring ten dollars here. Go quickly."
Gongsun Ming didn't care how ugly Suning's face was. After a noncommittal murmur, he turned his head and gave an order to Ling Feng who was following closely beside him.
"promise!"
Although he didn't understand what Gongsun Ming meant by this move, Ling Feng didn't hesitate at all. He responded quickly, turned around, and hurriedly led a few guards to the gate of the mansion. After a while, he carried a A basket of five baht coins was transferred out from the door of the house.
"According to someone's knowledge, a maid on the market is worth twenty guan, but is this true?"
Gongsun Ming did not take a closer look at the basket of five baht coins, but asked Suning expressionlessly.
"Yes, just, just..."
As a child of an aristocratic family, Suning was no fool. Seeing that Gongsun Ming had brought so much money, how could he not know that Gongsun Ming was going to redeem Kou Lan's life? But he didn't understand Gongsun Ming at all. What was the purpose of this move? His heart panicked, and his tongue, which was originally quite smart, suddenly became unable to move.
"That's fine. Since your Su family doesn't plan to keep Miss Kou, then I'll pay double the price to buy it. Mr. Su, do you have any objections, huh?"
Before Suning could figure out the reason, Gongsun Ming asked another question in a tone that left no room for doubt.
"I don't dare, I don't dare, it's just because the matter is serious, I, I, I..."
Suning was really afraid of Gongsun Ming's unpredictable methods. Although he tried his best to calm down, in the end, what he showed was still incoherent panic.
"Well, this matter is settled. Ling Feng, send a few brothers to help Mr. Su return the money to his house, and bring back the deed of betrayal at the same time."
Gongsun Ming can't say he dislikes the Su family, but he doesn't have much favorable impressions either. The reason why he talked to them so much before was just to take the opportunity to use his brain. Now that he has made up his mind, he doesn't bother to talk to them anymore. With a bang, he turned his head and gave Ling Feng another order.
"No! Mr. Su, please stop."
Although he was also full of doubts, Ling Feng would never give any discount when executing orders. After bowing and promising, he stood in front of Suning without any courtesy and drove away.
"well!"
As if he had a premonition that he had messed up the matter, Suning couldn't help but feel full of regret in his heart. He wanted to explain himself, but Ling Feng was blocking him like half an iron tower, and Suning didn't dare. No matter how much he delayed, he could only shake his head helplessly, sigh, and drag his feet towards the crowd.
"All the fellow villagers have been invited. One of them asked, how did people come into this world? Did they pop out of rocks? Obviously not. As long as they are human, they are all born to their parents. Since ancient times, men have supported the family and women have taken care of the household. , It is a natural principle, but has anyone ever thought about the pain of a mother's ten-month pregnancy? If there were no hardships in those ten months, how could we exist? Please ask yourself, have you ever been grateful to your mother's greatness? Every woman, now or in the future, should be the mother of her child. Why should we despise it? Previously, Miss Koulan accused a certain person of favoring sons over daughters and acting unfairly. I admitted that this was indeed the case of a certain person. However, as the saying goes, it is not too late to make up for the loss. I would like to ask you all to give me a certain period of time so that I can think about it. New policies will be promulgated within the month, and it may be possible to make up for the loss a little bit. If you, my fellow villagers, can trust you, can you please leave first? I’d like to ask you this.”
Although he had a rough solution in mind, he obviously couldn't talk nonsense on such occasions. All Gongsun Ming could do was to show off his acting skills and perform affectionately.
"The general's benevolence spreads widely, and we can trust him."
"The general believes in people. We all bow down and leave. Let's leave quickly."
"General, your words are serious. How can we not believe you as a person?"
Since his rise to power, Gongsun Ming must do what he says and must achieve results. He may be an evil star in the aristocratic family, but in the minds of ordinary people, Gongsun Ming is a Bodhisattva who saves suffering. Since he said this, the common people will not understand. If there was any objection, after a commotion, thousands of people dispersed quickly.
"Miss Koulan, you are free now, do you have somewhere to go?"
After sending thousands of people away, Gongsun Ming turned around and looked at Kou Lan, who was kneeling on the ground stubbornly, and asked a question in a calm tone.
Kou Lan's life in the Su family is actually not bad. Although she is a maidservant, she has been the youngest granddaughter of the head of the Su family since she was a child, accompanying her to read and read. She is extremely intelligent by nature, and even has a lot of knowledge. Far beyond the Miss Su family, the reason why she came to sue Gongsun Ming this time was just to fight for a chance of freedom for those poor maids. She did not consider what her future would be like, let alone where she should go once she was free. Where to go? Now that I heard Gongsun Ming's question, he didn't know how to answer for a moment. His eyes turned red, and the tears he had held back for a long time finally flowed down uncontrollably.
"If Miss Kou Lan has nowhere to go for the time being, she can rest in the government office for a while until she has figured out where to go. She can leave at any time. Do you think it's possible?"
When Kou Lan cried like this, Gongsun Ming couldn't help but feel a little worried. In desperation, he could only make a suggestion in a gentle tone.
"The little girl thanks the general for his kindness."
As soon as Gongsun Ming said these words, Kou Lan burst into tears, but he was not slow to respond at all. It made Gongsun Ming feel like he shot himself in the foot. When he thought of such a feminist coming to the house Aristocrat, looking back at the inner courtyard, he really didn’t know what the fuss was going to be like. However, he had already said the words, but it was difficult to take them back. He could only sigh helplessly and let it go...
