The clan elders heard that Ge Yunkui had sothing to discuss with them. Although they were very puzzled, they could only follow, just in case there was sothing important for them.
On the way, they kept asking Ge Yunkui, "What’s the Third Brother calling us for?"
Don’t mind that so people look aloof, but they also perked up their ears. They kept thinking that if they were called over, it wouldn’t be just to discuss how to distribute things to the clan for this year’s New Year, right?
You should know that several days prior, there was quite a commotion at Zhuge Zhi’s house, moving in a lot of stuff, making everyone excited. Everyone was thinking this year’s celebration would go very well.
But what they didn’t understand was, wasn’t today a day many people should be at Zhuge Zhi’s house cleaning? It would be bad if soone saw it. Alas, the Third Brother really, couldn’t he keep a low profile?
"I don’t know." Ge Yunkui led the way in front; he didn’t need to look at these people’s faces even though he was a servant of the old master, he wasn’t these people’s servant, why should he show them a good face?
Ge Yunkui’s indifferent deanor was really infuriating. They wanted to mock Ge Yunkui but held back; after all, he was the Third Brother’s man.
More importantly, "Old Ge, your son is doing well in the military, huh?"
Saying this ignited anger. Clearly, they could have sent soone into the military, but the Third Brother flat-out gave this opportunity to the Ge family’s son. Really don’t understand why he gave it to an outsider.
"Not bad, it’s all thanks to the opportunity given by the old master. The kid was proud once." Ge Yunkui knew these few people were full of jealousy, but what about it, even if given the opportunity, could their sons mix as well as his?
If this wasn’t said, they could still consider themselves friends, but now isn’t that infuriating?
If Zhuge Zhi hadn’t lost his mind, then their child would have beco an officer and beco a distinguished mber of the Zhuge Family, but now, alas.
Each felt their child had missed such a good opportunity and really wished they could chop up Ge Yunkui, and if possible, snatch away the glory belonging to his son.
Ge Yunkui ignored the thoughts behind him. Even if he felt their murderous gaze, so what?
Now they’re worrying over their sons and grandsons, but after seeing the old master, Ge Yunkui guaranteed they wouldn’t have ti to sourly rember him; instead, they’d be thinking about how to absolve themselves.
"Old Master." Ge Yunkui led the people to stand in front of Zhuge Zhi, although everyone should not harm Zhuge Zhi, what if they beca excited and did sothing they usually wouldn’t?
"No worries, you head to the back." Zhuge Zhi was very warm with Ge Yunkui’s actions, but did he need soone to protect him?
Though unwilling, Ge Yunkui could only give up the space.
Gong Ruini was very excited, now that the main people had arrived, it was ti to start the negotiations quickly. She wondered how they would deal with these clan elders.
Earlier, hearing from Zhuge Hongjie how these so-called clan elders treated the clansn made her very angry, and she didn’t expect even worse.
"You all head back first." This affair would absolutely blow up, maybe gossip will spread, but he didn’t want people to later bla Gong Ruini and the others for leaking it.
Ah, letting them leave? Gong Ruini was dumbfounded. Hadn’t she waited all this ti just to see so people as a joke? Was it really appropriate to send them away now?
No matter what Gong Ruini and the others thought, Zhuge Zhi had already made up his mind, and besides leaving, there was nothing else they could do.
More importantly, he signaled to Cai Xingjuan to follow Gong Ruini and the others.
Ah, alright then, they had planned to sneak over and eavesdrop later, but now there’s no chance, Cai Xingjuan would definitely watch them until the matter was settled.
Would Zhuge Hongjie talk to them afterward? But if Zhuge Zhi instructed him, Gong Ruini didn’t think he would leak it.
Seems like they really have to wait for various rumors afterward, huh?
Cai Xingjuan watched the restless group, "Don’t worry, the old master will be fine."
"They’re so greedy, in the end, they have to pay for their behavior."
Regarding other matters, Cai Xingjuan wouldn’t say; the old master had his thoughts and plans, and this might not even go through, better to wait for him to plan it slowly.
"I just want to know if this will teach Zhuge Mingshan a lesson." Gong Ruini was only concerned about Zhuge Mingshan.
It’s not that she liked other mbers of the Zhuge Family, she just really wished to completely get rid of Zhuge Mingshan, who she found distasteful.
Zhuge Mingshan? Cai Xingjuan could not guarantee, "Not certain, but she shouldn’t get away easily, as this sparked because she secretly incited people to fight with Hongjie."
Maybe they’re not thinking so much now, but when they go back, won’t those who suffered losses wonder why this erupted?
Over the years, everything could be hidden so well, not a single leak, how could it slip now? Once they find the reason it erupted, those people won’t let the poor scapegoat off, and isn’t it inevitable Zhuge Mingshan will have bad luck?
Ah, Gong Ruini previously inquired why there was fighting, learned soone argued with Zhuge Hongjie, but didn’t see Zhuge Mingshan involved, couldn’t believe she hid behind it all.
Just like that, wouldn’t Cai Xingjuan and the others know too, which ans Zhuge Zhi knew? How much preparation they made for today, Gong Ruini was really curious.
Poor Zhuge Mingshan, she probably didn’t expect things to evolve to this point, huh?
Zhuge Mingshan was really panicking. She actually wanted to use borrowed strength, didn’t soone want her to jump out and argue with Zhuge Hongjie, make him lose his composure, lose face in front of Third Grandpa?
The idea and plan were good; Zhuge Mingshan agreed, but she wasn’t stupid, definitely wouldn’t co forward, so she incited soone impulsive instead.
The situation got exactly to the angry exchange as expected, and quite fiercely too, but the final developnt made her unable to cope or completely exceed her control.
Zhuge Mingshan really didn’t know what to do, if Third Grandpa let it slide it was fine, but if not, what then?
Especially in the current situation, no signs of settling amicably, this really frustrated Zhuge Mingshan, her gaze toward Zhuge Zhi carried a sense of killing intent.
Zhuge Mingshan believed she was hidden among the crowd, impossible to be discovered, but unbeknownst to her, she was the focus of Zhuge Zhi and his n. As soon as her expression changed, she was imdiately noticed.
Ge Yunkui looked at Zhuge Mingshan with displeasure. Knowing she wasn’t a nice person, couldn’t believe she’d do sothing wrong and then shift bla onto others. What kind of person is that? With a sigh, it’s not his place to judge, as long as the old master doesn’t fall for it.
