Chapter 540
Just when the official was about to be taken away by Xia Hui, an old voice suddenly came from the hall of Yao Mansion.

Immediately, all eyes turned to the hall.

With the support of Yao Qingxiang, the silver-haired Mrs. Yao walked over slowly.

Because of her advanced age, coupled with the recent shocks of losing children and grandchildren, Mrs. Yao is in poor health and spirit.

Walking from a distance, trembling, as if a gust of wind could blow it down.

What surprised everyone the most was the person who walked out with Mrs. Yao's arm. This person turned out to be Yao Qingxiang, who she hated the most before.

When the mayor and the old pedant saw Mrs. Yao coming out, they immediately went up to welcome them. They had known each other for most of their lives. When Master Yao was around, their friendship was not so deep.

"Old sister-in-law, your bones are not good, don't come out in such a cold day!"

The mayor was the first to speak. He said this to show mercy to Mrs. Yao. After all, it is disgraceful that something like this happened to the Yao family and it made such a big fuss.

"Such a thing happened in the mansion, let you see a joke!"

When Mrs. Yao said this, a trace of embarrassment appeared on her wrinkled face.

"Master Bai, can you show me some face, and don't make a fuss about this matter in the yamen."

She went straight to Bai Yuchen, and reluctantly opened the mouth to him.

"Old Madam, what do you mean by this? You Yao Mansion were the ones who had to go to the yamen first, why are you really going to the yamen now, and you are the ones who refuse to go?"

Bai Yuchen didn't care about friendship, besides, he didn't have any friendship with this old Mrs. Yao.

"Yes! Yes! After all, it is our fault!" Mrs. Yao repeatedly nodded in agreement with Bai Yuchen's words.

"But you've heard it too. It's the two little maids who are jealous. The maids are not disciplined strictly. We just lock them up in the mansion and discipline them again. There is really no need to go to the yamen!"

Mrs. Yao evaded the seriousness and said lightly, she knew that if she didn't come out at this time, Xia Hui would really be caught in the yamen, and the following things would not be so difficult.

The girl has a stubborn mouth, and it’s okay if she bites her tongue and doesn’t say anything. If she reveals a few words, the Yao family will lose all face. , I'm afraid I really can't hold it anymore.

When Wang Zhujun wanted to do this, she tried to persuade him, but since he lost his child, Wang Zhujun's temperament suddenly became so stubborn that he couldn't listen to any persuasion.

"Whether it's a matter of jealousy or not, you'll know when you go to the Yamen for interrogation! I don't think you Yao Manor can teach you anything!"

In the last sentence, Bai Yuchen was clearly mocking. At the same time as he said this, his cold eyes glanced at Wang Zhujun. hand, showing her nervousness.

Bai Yuchen didn't buy his own account, which was expected by Mrs. Yao.

Although the Yao family used to be able to rule the town, and officials of all sizes would give them a little bit of face, but the Yao family is different now, not to mention the thin population, and the Xianghe Building might not be able to keep it without Meng Kejun's help.

"Just because we didn't teach it well, we must remember the teaching this time, and we can't make such a mistake next time."

When Mrs. Yao was speaking, she made a face to the mayor and the old scholar who were standing aside. They were all invited by Bai Yuchen to end this matter.

"Lord Bai, why don't you let the Yao Mansion take care of this matter! After all, it's the Chinese New Year, and it's not appropriate for this little girl to be imprisoned now, let alone the county magistrate is not here now."

"That's right! You have to forgive others and forgive others, this girl has also been taught a lesson! Why don't you just leave it to the Yao Mansion to take care of it, after all, this is also the Yao Mansion's own business."

The mayor and the old pedant immediately offered to help Mrs. Yao with one sentence, hoping that Bai Yuchen would take it for their sake and let it go.

"What? Do you all treat the yamen as your own vegetable garden? Go and leave whenever you want?"

But Bai Yuchen couldn't listen to what they said, and he didn't want to sell their face.

As soon as Bai Yuchen's words were spoken, the mayor and the old pedant looked at me and I looked at you, and immediately couldn't hold back.

He specially invited him here, saying that the words of a high-ranking person have weight, but at this moment, what he said has no weight in front of him, and it is still in front of so many people, which makes them What a shame.

Meng Kejun saw the displeasure on the faces of the two old men, and immediately rushed over to be caught between them, "Of course we can't let this matter go, they haven't paid us 500 taels yet! This has been agreed in advance! "

While speaking, Meng Kejun winked at Bai Yuchen, signaling him not to be so aggressive.

"Yes! Yes! We will not take this money! I will ask the accountant to pay the money right away."

As soon as Meng Kejun finished speaking, Mrs. Yao immediately climbed down the ladder she gave her, feeling admiration for her intelligence again in her heart.

Bai Yuchen didn't want to give up at first, but now Mrs. Yao has climbed down the ladder given by Meng Kejun, so he can only helplessly sell the mayor and the old pedant's face.

"Your Yao Mansion's matter today is just for the sake of the mayor and the old pedant, I will let it go like this, and I will not let it go like this in the future."

Upon hearing that Bai Yuchen had betrayed his face, the mayor and the old pedant who were so angry just now raised their beards with joy.

"That's right! That's right! From now on, we will teach ourselves behind closed doors for things like this. If there is such a commotion, the impact will not be good at all!"

"The lesson of 500 taels will be remembered! I will remember it!"

As soon as the old pedant finished speaking, he saw Mr. Yao's accountant come out with a tray.

Meng Kejun led Xiao Shuang and walked over directly. There were five bank notes on the tray, one hundred and one, and 500 taels was a lot.

In front of everyone in the middle, Meng Kejun put all five bank notes into Xiao Shuang's arms one by one.

The people around the door, seeing the 500 taels into Xiao Shuang's pocket, thought that this must be the end of the matter.

"The little maids are jealous, and the Yao family pays 500 taels. What is this?"

Some people looked at it for a long time, but only saw such simple things.

"You are stupid! Is that something between the maids?"

Some people see clearly and know that things are not as simple as they see.

Just when the big guys were about to leave, who knew there was a slap, and the crisp slap sounded again suddenly, and the smell of gunpowder that had just been extinguished became stronger again.
