"What's going on? Why are they quarreling here? "
Gong Bin, who had just finished checking the accounts early in the morning, came to see what was going on because of Mrs. Liang's loud voice.
Unexpectedly, he saw Lin Mengya and Gong San hiding behind the crowd.
He grabbed one of them and asked a few questions, but he still did not get the answer he wanted.
Gong Bin had no choice but to walk to the back of the crowd quietly and grab one of them with each hand.
"Why are you two here? This is … "
Lin Mengya's eyes suddenly lit up when she saw the elder brother.
She was thinking that it was not appropriate to disturb her great-grandfather, but they lacked an important person to "uphold justice".
Who would have thought that this person would come knocking on his door?
She immediately stood on tiptoe and shouted at the crowd.
"The young master of the Gong family is here!"
In an instant, the tide surged towards them.
She and Gong San were also quick to react. They instantly brushed away Gong Bin's hand and obediently and quickly took a few steps back.
Their movements were clean and smooth like flowing water.
Gong Bin was stunned. When he came to his senses, he was already surrounded by layers of people.
As the eldest master of the Gong family, he immediately reacted.
But he still could not help but secretly glance at the two of them.
Well, these young people were getting more and more unruly now. They were selling him off so quickly!
But Lin Mengya did not care so much. She looked away and pretended that she did not see it.
Gong San still remembered some brotherly love, but he only looked at his eldest brother with sympathy, and then obediently became a spectator with his little sister.
What made Gong Bin most angry was that he even took a few steps back. It seemed that if he dragged him into this, this guy would be ready to escape at any time.
Gong Bin took a few deep breaths and comforted himself in his heart.
Don't be angry, don't be angry. I'll deal with these two brats after dealing with these trivial matters.
But the current situation might not be easy to get through.
"Who is making noise here?"
Mrs. Liang finally saw someone who could call the shots in the Gong family. She immediately jumped to Gong San's side and complained with tears.
"Gong Bin, you have to uphold justice for me!"
Gong Bin saw that it was Mrs. Liang.
He was slightly surprised, but that was all.
He had already let go of the events of the past, so he naturally wouldn't hold a grudge.
"Since it's Master's wife, it must be something very important. There were too many people here, so it wasn't convenient to talk. Why don't you come in with me to talk? "
Gong Bin was completely unprepared. Up until now, he only knew that Madam Liang seemed to have suffered a great injustice.
However, he hadn't expected that his good intentions would be taken as malicious intent by Madam Liang.
"I'm not going in! Gong Bin, I thought you were different from them, but I didn't expect you to block my mouth as well! Let me tell you, you have to give me a satisfactory explanation for what happened today. Otherwise, I'll kill myself in front of your Gong Family's door! "
Gong Bin furrowed his brows. It seemed like the situation was more serious than he had imagined.
"Mistress, what do you mean by this?"
"Why don't you go ask your good little brother! Not only did he humiliate my daughter when he was drunk, but you still want to get away with it? Let me ask you, is this the Gong family's method? Or do you think that your family can cover the sky with one hand? "
Her words were like water thrown into boiling oil, instantly causing an uproar.
Gong Bin obviously hadn't expected this. When he looked at Lin Mengya and Gong San again, there was a questioning look in his eyes.
Fortunately, Lin Mengya's expression remained the same, and she quietly shook her head at him.
In Gong Bin's heart, he felt a little more confident this time.
It seemed that his little sister and Third Brother knew something about the situation.
He calmed down as well.
"What are you talking about, Master's wife? Our Gong family has never done such a thing as taking advantage of our power to bully others. If you have any grievances, feel free to tell me. I'll definitely seek justice for you. "
When Madam Liang said this, a smug look flashed across her eyes.
But soon, she turned around and hugged Liang Yue, who was crying hard, and said with grief and indignation.
"It's all because of your good little brother, the Fourth Young Master of the Gong family! Today, we were kind enough to invite him and Third Young Master to our house. But we didn't expect that Fourth Young Master would lose his virtue after drinking and humiliate my little daughter! I'm asking you, are you going to intervene in this matter or not? "
There was an uproar.
Everyone in the Gong family was shocked.
How could this be possible? How could the gentle and refined Fourth Young Master do such a thing that was worse than a beast?
Everyone stared blankly at the situation in front of them. It was too unexpected. It was really unexpected.
Gong Bin's frown deepened.
But this time, his gaze towards Madam Liang carried an additional layer of coldness.
"Is what Madam Liang said the truth?"
"Of course it's the truth. If I didn't see it with my own eyes, how would I know that the Gong family's disciples are worse than beasts?"
After being humiliated again and again, no matter how good Gong Bin's temper was, he could not take it anymore.
"Before the truth is ascertained, please watch your words and actions, Mistress. The disciples of the Gong family would never do such a thing that would ruin our family's reputation! "
"Gong Bin! I thought you were different from them, but I didn't expect you to be the same! With the witness and material evidence, the Gong family can't deny it! "
Madam Liang began to feel uneasy.
She was not sure about the others, but she knew Gong Bin's character.
Although this child had been obedient since he was young, she knew better than anyone that he had the stubbornness and unruliness of the Gong family in his bones.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have left without saying a word after knowing that her eldest daughter was engaged to someone else. All these years, there hadn't been any news of her at all.
Thinking about it, she regretted it.
But she also blamed Gong Bin. If he had rushed back to question her, perhaps she would have agreed to his marriage with her eldest daughter.
Today, she wouldn't have had to put aside her pride to do such a thing.
In the end, it was Gong Bin who was heartless first!
Thinking of this, Madam Liang's attitude toward Gong Bin became more and more harsh.
"What witness and material evidence? Mistress, you have to be responsible for your words! "
The more Gong Bin spoke, the angrier he became, and his tone was no longer as polite as before.
Madam Liang was even more exasperated when she saw that he was being biased.
"I saw your brother walk out of my daughter's room with my own eyes! Isn't that enough? "
"Mistress, you …"
"I don't care! No matter what, you have to give me an explanation today! My daughter is pure and innocent. She has never interacted with any man before. If the Gong family doesn't give me an explanation today, I'd rather die here than let the Gong family have peace! "
Seeing that the words were getting more and more heated, Gong Bin was at the peak of his anger when he suddenly heard an elegant and gentle voice coming from the door.
"Who said that I was immoral after drinking and bullied a girl?"
Although the voice was no different from usual, there was a hint of coldness hidden in it.
The crowd immediately opened up a path, and Gong Si walked toward Madam Liang and the others step by step.
Everyone saw that the Fourth Young Master was well-dressed, and his face and hair were not messy at all.
Moreover, there was no smell of alcohol coming from him.
He was still the gentle and elegant gentleman, completely unrelated to the description of a beast with a human face.
Seeing Gong Si's sudden appearance, a trace of panic flashed across Madam Liang's eyes.
No, how could he be here? Obviously …
"Old Fourth, since you're back, you have to give me a clear explanation about this matter. Did you do it or not? "
Seeing this situation, Gong Bin had already understood 70% to 80%.
He was very clear about his younger brother's character.
Moreover, Old Fourth had always been a good drinker, but his alcohol tolerance was very low. He might not be drunk after one glass, but he was not far from it.
Everyone in the Gong family knew that he and Ya 'er were not good drinkers.
Now that he saw that Old Fourth could still stand here without a trace of panic, he knew that Gong Si definitely did not drink.
The last trace of doubt in his heart was put to rest.
It seemed that someone had made up their mind to make things difficult for the Gong family today.
His eyes suddenly turned cold. He wanted to see who gave them the courage to do this!
"Elder brother, I didn't do such a thing. And I didn't even go to the Liang family today. "
The words that came out of his mouth were actually completely different from Madam Liang's.
"Impossible! You came to our house for a drink, and many people saw it. Do you think you can deny it? "
Madam Liang had already given up. As long as she could pin this crime on Gong Si, she couldn't care less about anything else.
But Gong Si didn't care about her, who was like a crazy woman. He turned around and called out.
"Gong Miao, you speak."
A smart and delicate young man squeezed in and immediately spoke after bowing to Gong Bin.
"Elder Master, because you said that there was a problem with the silk shop in the city yesterday. You were busy with other things and couldn't leave, so you asked Fourth Master to deal with this matter. Early this morning, I came to invite Fourth Master. Fourth Master has been in and out of the silk shops to deal with things the entire morning and afternoon. He hasn't left for even a moment. "
Gong Bin only remembered after Gong Miao's words.
Indeed, because he was busy with the matters of the inn, he couldn't leave today.
The matter in the silk shop wasn't big, and it just took some time and energy.
He couldn't find a suitable candidate at the moment, so he kept delaying.
It was only last night when Gong Si volunteered that he settled this matter.
Gong Bin nodded, and his expression softened a little.
"Indeed. Did Fourth Master really stay in the silk shop the entire morning?"
Gong Miao immediately nodded and said.
"I don't dare to lie to you. If you don't believe me, all the guests who came to the silk shop this morning are witnesses. You can find someone to check."
At this moment, Madam Liang was clearly panicking.
That's right, it wasn't true that Gong Si had bullied Liang Yue. But he did enter the Liang family's courtyard, and he was really drunk.
