Chapter 438 No choice
Cui Yudie immediately put all the responsibility on the servant, "I handed over the matter long ago. If the servant doesn't do the job with all his heart, what does it have to do with me?"
Cheng Dongjiang laughed angrily, "Okay! Then sell off all the servants in the house. There is no need to keep such useless servants anyway!"
He knew very well that those servants were chosen by Cui Yudie and stayed after they were in line with her wishes. If the fault was really the fault of the servants, Cui Yudie would be the first to deal with them without him having to say anything. Now, But he only made noises and made no mention of killing people and selling them, which was obviously a guilty conscience.
"You!" Cui Yudie was angry and pointed at Cheng Dongjiang angrily, "Okay! Then sell them all! Anyway, it's already like this. It doesn't matter if there is no one to entertain guests tomorrow."
Isn’t it just a matter of comparing who can keep calm? She didn't believe Cheng Dongjiang could bear it!
Sure enough, Cheng Dongjiang was furious, and his resentful eyes were fixed on Cui Yudie, and the couple refused to let anyone go.
After a long time, Cheng Dongjiang slowly closed his eyes and personally called the housekeeper over to understand the situation.
Cui Yudie smiled proudly, as if laughing at the Cheng family's overestimation of their capabilities.
The housekeeper was trembling and explained the situation clearly, but he was also afraid of causing complications and did not mention Cui Yudie's whole day of socializing.
Cheng Dongjiang pondered: "You mean the money Madam gave you is not enough?"
“Yes” the housekeeper glanced at Cui Yudie secretly, and then quickly lowered his eyes.
Cheng Dongjiang sneered and said: "It's really interesting. After pawning the things that Madam moved from various courtyards in the house, she still had four or five hundred taels. Adding in the money saved in the house, she couldn't make up five hundred taels?"
With that said, he rushed out before Cui Yudie could react. When Cui Yudie reacted, he saw Cheng Dongjiang appearing carrying a locked box.
Mrs. Cheng has not yet reacted.
Cui Yudie went crazy first, and rushed forward like crazy to **** the box, "Cheng Dongjiang! My body is all in there, you are not allowed to touch it! If you dare to take it away from me, I will go to the government tomorrow to sue you!"
Cheng Dongjiang smiled ferociously and said: "Okay! You go and sue, and we will die together! No one will have an easy time!"
With a sound of "Bang!", Cheng Dongjiang lifted the box high and smashed it against the edge of the stone steps. All the gold, silver and jewelry were scattered on the ground.
Mrs. Cheng's eyes widened when she saw those things, "Ms. Cui! You have so many things, yet you, an old woman like me, cry out that you are penniless!"
There are more than a dozen or dozens of taels of gold hairpins pawned.
Cui Yudie rushed forward, guarding the things tightly, "It's all mine! It's all my dowry! No one is allowed to touch it!"
Cheng Dongjiang stepped forward, raised his foot fiercely, and kicked Cui Yudie to the ground.
This scene happened to be seen by Cheng Jiaojiao and Cheng Hong who hurried over.
The two of them rushed over, one protecting Cui Yudie and the other stopping Cheng Dongjiang.
"Father, if you have something to say, why should you get angry? No matter how bad my mother is, she is still the mistress of the Cheng family. The princess is going to get married tomorrow. If my mother shows her hurt, the princess will definitely be upset." Cheng Hiro begged humbly.
Cheng Jiaojiao protected Cui Yudie while picking up things and didn't even bother to talk.
For the sake of his son, Cheng Dongjiang actually relaxed a bit. He stepped forward, picked up the **** tickets, looked at them carefully, and said coldly: "Those things in the house were pawned for four hundred and eighty-five taels. I took four hundred and eighty-five taels from here, as proof! If you want to make a fuss, I will fight to the end! "No! That's my money, you can't take it!" Cui Yudie staggered over and grabbed Cheng Dongjiang's clothes tightly.
“Mother, forget it! Forget it!” Cheng Jiaojiao was extremely frightened and quickly spoke out to persuade her.
"No! You have no idea how much the mansion's annual expenses are. Without this money, you won't be able to make clothes for the four seasons!" Cui Yudie pinched Cheng Jiaojiao's painful foot.
Cheng Jiaojiao immediately fell silent.
Cheng Dongjiang snorted coldly, pulled out the corner of his clothes, and ignored the selfish mother and daughter on the ground. Then he came to the housekeeper and ordered: "Bring the three hundred taels that the madam gave you."
Cui Yudie suddenly screamed, "Don't take it! Cheng Dongjiang! You have already taken away nearly 500 taels, and you still want to take 300 taels! I tell you! If you dare to take it away, I will die for you!"
She had just thought about it, and if it didn't work out, she would take back the three hundred taels from the housekeeper, which would help her recover some losses. Unexpectedly, Cheng Dongjiang blocked all her planned escape routes.
The housekeeper is in a dilemma.
Cheng Dongjiang sneered, "Okay! Then you go and die. Hong'er will be in mourning tomorrow, so the princess doesn't need to be married. It's not a bad idea to turn the wedding banquet into a funeral banquet."
“You!” Cui Yudie was so angry that her blood surged and her eyes were bloodshot.
The housekeeper took a look and knew that the master was determined to take care of his wife today, so he could only take out the three hundred taels like a quail.
If he looked up, he could see that Cui Yudie looked at him with a look that made her want to eat him.
Cheng Dongjiang got nearly 800 taels of silver and went out without caring about the mess at home.
At this time, the big restaurants are still closed, and some of the thriving restaurants in the capital are still full of customers.
He went to Yongtai Restaurant as quickly as possible to discuss the banquet with the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper was very shocked, "Master Cheng, isn't your master going to marry Princess Wuya tomorrow? Why did you book a table now?"
It's not like he hasn't asked about it before. After all, one big order like this can make the restaurant's profit for several days. But after asking around, he couldn't get the exact information. He thought it was something else planned by the palace. I stopped paying attention. I never thought that this big deal would fall on their Yongtai Restaurant, but it was a bit embarrassing.
Cheng Dongjiang was a little embarrassed, but his face was calm, "It happened for a reason, and it was a helpless move. I wonder if the shopkeeper can take it. How much money will it cost?"
"Here" the shopkeeper was a little embarrassed, "Mr. Cheng, if you had come two days earlier, I would have prepared everything for you, so that you can save money and have a good time. But we have to make a banquet tomorrow. You now Only then did he say that he could not prepare so many ingredients in such a short time.
And it is difficult to arrange chefs in restaurants in a hurry. Moreover, the cost will be more expensive.
I am telling you the truth because I see you are anxious. Looking at all the restaurants in Beijing, the only ones who dare to take orders from you at this time are our Yongtai Restaurant, Baiwei Restaurant, Qianshiju, and Juxian Restaurant.
You also know Qianshiju and Juxian Tower. They are ridiculously expensive and only accept dignitaries. If you want to find them, you must prepare at least several thousand taels.
Baiweilou is better, but I heard that Wuya Envoy seems not used to the food at Baiweilou. Tomorrow your family is holding a wedding event, and Wuya Envoy will definitely come there. It would be unpalatable if they were allowed to eat it. "
