NOVEL WEB Chapter 181: I've eaten more salt than you've eaten rice_6
"Hehe, after midnight tonight, the United Commerce Association of Xufu Town will change hands."
"His feigned calmness during this time will become a joke by then."
"I, Changsun Hao, will be the new president of the Xufu Town United Commerce Association. From now on, as president, I can go and negotiate with others."
"At worst, suffer a little loss first, settle down, and then talk. Even if we can't win against outsiders, we can dominate Xufu Town!"
"This is the Clothing Town of Xufu Town!"
The more Changsun Hao spoke, the more complacent he became, while Changsun Mei was about to speak, her lips, almost devoid of color, were about to open.
"Alright, alright, why say so much?"
"I've lived this long, don't I see things more clearly than a young girl like you?"
"I've eaten more grains of salt than you've eaten grains of rice! When I was doing business outside, you didn't even know where you were!"
Changsun Hao suddenly became arrogant.
He even seemed ready to hit someone.
"You should know that your good-for-nothing father was also very arrogant back in the day, but later I defeated him, and wasn't he utterly defeated?"
"But he finally came to his senses and finally realized who the Zhangsun Family should listen to."
"It's not his words, nor your words, but my words, those of Changsun Hao."
"Hehe!"
Changsun Mei bit her red lips, a strong sadness appearing on her beautiful young face.
This... this is too much.
"Alright, since you insist, this junior, Changsun Mei, has nothing more to say."
"Many times, it's not that I don't want to support the family, I can only fend for myself."
"Following you, I suddenly can't see hope; I can even foresee my despair after tonight."
"That is the despair of my life, so to prevent such a thing from happening, I must take some self-preserving actions."
After speaking, Changsun Mei heavily kowtowed three times to Changsun Hao, her fair forehead dusty and slightly bloodied.
She wiped away her tears and hurried out.
Cursing herself is one thing, but cursing her father is another, and she wasn't even allowed to speak.
So, what is her purpose in the Zhangsun Family?
Is it just to satisfy her grandfather's vanity because he can't accept stepping back?
Look at others like Wei Xubing, and look at the Wei elder. Elder Wei is decisive, his third son has courage and boldness.
He dares to let go.
But you?
However, Changsun Hao didn't think such things were a big deal.
Children, little girls, it's very normal for them to have such tempers.
It was already afternoon, with three more hours to go until dinner at the Lamp Flower Tower.
Everything in the Lamp Flower Tower would be laid bare at that time, and it would be a good opportunity to teach this stubborn girl.
"Ah, children are children after all, at this time they're still children after all."
"In doing such business, you shouldn't bring any personal feelings into it, bringing such emotions of men and women into business?"
"How can you do business like this? It's so petty."
After saying this, Changsun Hao shouted towards the door, "Someone come."
Soon, two or three guards came over.
The guards awaited Changsun Hao's orders.
"Keep a strict watch over Miss's courtyard."
"Without my orders, she is not allowed to step out of the courtyard."
"Until tonight when I go to take her to the Lamp Flower Tower!"
The guards quickly promised and went to execute the task.
...
Back in the boudoir.
Changsun Mei sat on a round stool, writing on a sheet of paper with a pen.
The maid stood not far away, not daring to come over to see what Changsun Mei was writing.
But it was clear Changsun Mei had cried once.
I dared not ask, I dared not speak, it was just as I thought, the master is not so easily persuaded.
For so many years, incident after incident has proved he just wants to hold the absolute power of the Zhangsun Family.
After a while.
Changsun Mei finally wiped her tears, placed the paper with traces of tears into an envelope.
"You quickly go to the Wei Family and hand this letter to Young Master Yuchi."
At this time, she didn't need to look outside the courtyard.
It must have already been watched by family guards, and she currently had no way to leave the Zhangsun Family.
Thinking it over, she could only rely on the maid who had been by her side for so many years.
The maid who had been with her for so many years, certainly capable of handling such matters properly.
Even if many unwanted changes occurred at night, the problem shouldn't be particularly big.
At least...
At least I can end up with the same fate as Wei Yuan back then, really being forced to leave?
Thinking it over...
Her eyes looked into the distance, her mind conjuring the image of Wei Lao Shi, biting thin, moist lips, "It's not impossible."
