If he punished Gong Wu, it would mean that her reputation would be ruined, and it would be extremely difficult for her to inherit the Gong family in the future.
But if he covered for her, it would affect himself.
It seemed to be a difficult choice, but in fact, it was not difficult for Gong Tu.
Gong Tu sighed, and there was some disappointment on his face.
"This is the negligence of the Gong family. The Gong family has let Shopkeeper Ye down. Miss Ming Zhu, if you can trust me one more time, I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer. "
Looking at Gong Tu's pained look, those who did not know would really think that he was repentant from the bottom of his heart.
Ming Zhu was a little hesitant, and subconsciously looked at Liu Qianrong.
Liu Qianrong nodded slightly, and Ming Zhu dared to agree.
"Ming Zhu only asks for justice for my family."
Seeing that he had finally calmed down, Gong Tu's heart also calmed down a little.
Fortunately, he made a prompt decision, or else this time, the Gong family would have been greatly embarrassed.
Chu Mu could not say anything more, but he secretly thought that it was best to keep an eye on this matter, in case the Gong family did it half-heartedly.
He subconsciously wanted to look for traces of Ming Zhu, but saw that she was being supported by Liu Qianrong back to the sedan in the Wen Yu Pavilion.
There was a myriad of tenderness in his eyes, although this girl's fate was not good, but her courage was commendable.
Next time, he must definitely pay a visit to this girl.
"Sorry to have kept you waiting, today, the Gong family will take it as an apology, please do me the honor!"
After the situation calmed down, Gong Tu actually used the excuse of apology to invite those people in.
The people who attended the banquet were not ordinary people, after such a thing happened, they did not dare to feel uncomfortable, but they still had to give face.
However, Gong Tu and Gong Wu were blacklisted by them.
At the same time, they also had a different view of the Gong family.
If the two of them were really in power, the Gong family would not be far from being divided up by others.
Therefore, those people also accepted the invitation with the intention of inquiring.
But this time, no one had the mood or the guts to carefully check the guests who came in.
Meanwhile, Lin Mengya and Xiu swaggered into the Gong Family in a dignified manner.
They were much more familiar with the old house of the Gong family than Gong Tu's people.
While no one was paying attention, the two of them quickly ran to the backyard.
In the most secluded courtyard of the Gong Family, Baisu had been waiting for almost two hours.
She paced back and forth, but her eyes were fixed on the outside, afraid that she would miss something.
Finally, two familiar figures ran in from outside. She immediately went up to meet them.
"Master, Xiu, it's so noisy outside. Did it implicate you?"
Bai Su knew her plan, but she did not know the details.
However, the commotion today was very serious. She could even hear some noises from inside.
Therefore, he was very worried, afraid that there would be new problems.
Lin Mengya shook her head and cautiously pulled her into an empty room next door.
"Everything is going smoothly. How's great-grandfather doing?"
Baisu frowned, and her cold eyes were filled with anger.
"They don't allow anyone to visit Old Ancestor and the young masters, and the people inside are not allowed to come out. I've secretly observed them a few times, and they don't seem to have any intention of treating the ancestors. Even the food and drinks are just plain tea, which doesn't seem to be for the patients at all. "
Since Baisu was so angry, it seemed that things were not that simple.
Gong Tu and Lin Mengwu dared to hurt the family she cared about. It seemed that she did not embarrass them enough today.
"But how can we get in with such a tight guard?"
Xiu raised a key question, but she did not expect that Lin Mengya had already thought of a countermeasure.
"There are more guests here today. After the commotion just now, Gong Tu must be trying to show off in front of these people. I think he must have mobilized all the available people to hold this banquet well. "
Although they lived in the old house and could imprison Old Ancestor and others in the yard, in fact, it was the original servants of the Gong family who supported the normal operation of the Gong family.
Old Ancestor just wanted to numb Gong Tu and his people, so he easily let them occupy the old house.
But now Gong Tu had been frightened by what happened just now, and he would not easily trust the original servants of the Gong family.
In this way, he would make the best use of them and rely on the group of people he brought with him.
In this way, the power of the people guarding Old Ancestor would be relatively weak.
It was also the best opportunity for them not to alert the enemy.
Xiu nodded and felt that what Lin Mengya said was very reasonable.
"Then let's go quickly, in case they find us."
"Don't rush."
Unexpectedly, Lin Mengya pulled her and said with a smile.
"Gong Tu and Lin Mengwu must have been prepared before, and we just caught them off guard. They are still the same people, and the situation will definitely be stabilized soon. "
"Then, we came here in vain, didn't we?"
Lin Mengya smiled mysteriously and touched Xiu's nose.
"Don't worry, there will be new guests coming soon."
At that time, she would like to see how Gong Tu and Lin Mengwu would deal with it!
In the front yard of the old house of the Gong family, Gong Tu greeted the guests like the only owner of the house.
During the days in his hometown, he kept a low profile every day and was on tenterhooks.
Now that he had finally restored his former glory, it was time for him to hold his head high. However, a servant hurried over and whispered something in his ear.
"Gong Wu also wants to come?"
The servant was here to convey this matter. Gong Wu fled in panic before. Now that he had finally stabilized the situation, that woman actually wanted to make trouble again?
Immediately, Gong Tu's face darkened.
"Tell Gong Wu that if she doesn't want to continue to embarrass me, she should stay in her room obediently and don't come out at all! Otherwise, I won't clean up the mess for her anymore! "
Gong Tu scolded coldly. The servant did not dare to hesitate and immediately went to convey the message.
However, as soon as the words reached Lin Mengwu's ears, that person smashed the vase in her room as if she had gone crazy.
"Miss, please calm down!"
The maidservants did not even dare to speak loudly, and their submissive looks made her even angrier.
Lin Mengwu pinched the faces of the two coquettish girls fiercely. Only when they were bruised did Lin Mengwu feel a little relieved.
"All of you can leave. Don't make Miss angry anymore."
When Shangguan Qing appeared at the door, those maidservants immediately bowed and hurriedly ran out.
Lin Mengwu stared at those people fiercely, feeling increasingly unhappy in her heart.
"If you want to vent your anger, you can hit them anywhere, but on their faces. Aren't you damaging your own reputation?"
Shangguan Qing scolded, but more than that, she felt pity for her daughter.
Lin Mengwu felt extremely wronged. She hugged her mother's waist and said with gritted teeth.
"That Gong Tu! It's obvious that he didn't handle this matter well. It's just a few thousand taels of silver, but he refused to give it to me to buy clothes. Who did I do this for? Isn't he hoping to smoothly take over the Gong Family? He's the one who's blaming me. He didn't know that if it weren't for me, how could he have the chance to climb to the Gong Family? "
Naturally, Shangguan Qing was a little dissatisfied with Gong Tu. After all, it was her daughter who would be in charge of the Gong Family in the future. Gong Tu did not help her properly, but now stepped on her daughter's head.
How could she not feel angry?
"My dear daughter, I know what you're thinking. But a little impatience will spoil a great plan. You've seen that he didn't protect you in front of those people today. In the future, the road for us two won't be easy to walk. "
Shangguan Qing was more mature and experienced. She naturally knew the power of public opinion.
Now, Wu 'er's reputation was not very good.
Therefore, they had to be careful.
But Lin Mengwu did not think so.
"What are you afraid of? No matter how bad my reputation is, I'm the only one left in the Gong Family. If he doesn't rely on me, he won't be able to take over the Gong Family. Mother, I also want to go to the banquet. Why did Gong Tu steal all the limelight? I'm so wronged. "
Shangguan Qing thought for a while and really thought of a good idea.
Her eyes lit up, and she helped her daughter out of her arms.
"Since Gong Tu dares to step on your reputation, we don't have to be too polite to him. If he dares to do this, we'll do the same."
"Mother, what should we do?"
Shangguan Qing smiled coldly and smoothed the hair on her daughter's temples.
"Don't forget that the reason why those people in the Gong Family are ill is because of the thing you brought. Since we can make those men of the Gong Family collapse, we can also make Gong Tu collapse. In a while, I'll personally push the old guy of the Gong Family out. Say that you will accompany the old ancestor of the Gong Family to attend the banquet. On one hand, it will let those people know who the real heir of the Gong Family is. On the other hand, it will also warn Gong Tu. "
Lin Mengwu's eyes lit up. Why didn't she think of such a good idea?
"Mother, then go and do it now. I'll let Gong Tu know how powerful I am!"
Shangguan Qing looked at her daughter dotingly, and her eyes were full of calculation.
As long as it was for Wu 'er, she could do anything.
"Okay, you wait patiently. I'll be back soon. Come on, dress Miss Wu up. My Wu 'er is the most beautiful and best girl in the world. "
At this moment, Lin Mengwu smiled sweetly. Yes, Lin Mengya and Su Mei were defeated by her in the end.
At this moment, Lin Mengya and the other two had already lurked outside the small courtyard where the old ancestor was imprisoned.
As she had expected, the security here was a little less than before, but it was still tight, so it was not easy to get in.
Just when she was waiting patiently, she saw Shangguan Qing coming over with her people.
What was she doing here?
Fortunately, they were well hidden, and Shangguan Qing did not pay attention to the surroundings.
She just hurried into the door and came out soon after.
But this time, Shangguan Qing was pushing a person out.
