Old Master Zhou looked smugly at the doorman lying on the ground and screaming. He scolded loudly, “You dog, are you deaf? I’m calling you to call out the gossipy woman who bought flowers a few days ago. I’m not selling my flowers to her anymore.”
As he spoke, he took out a money bag from his pocket and threw it in front of him. “I’ll return the money to you. Hurry up and bring out my flowers.”
Old Master Zhou’s scolding at the door had already alarmed the passersby.
Seeing that they were fighting, the passersby stopped and surrounded Old Master Zhou, who was shouting in front of the door.
The guards got up and looked at Old Master Zhou and Ruyi, who were looking at them with their arms crossed. They looked at each other. “What should we do? Let’s go in and report to Madam!”
Seeing that more and more people were gathering to watch the commotion, one of the guards frowned and said, “Old Wang, you should quickly report it!
Otherwise, the few of us will be the ones to suffer.”
The leader felt that it made sense. He hugged his stomach which was hurting from the kick and instructed them as he walked, “Watch him. Don’t let anyone break into the residence.”
The gatekeeper, Old Wang, ran to the second door and shouted at the old woman guarding the door, “Old Madam Zhang, quickly report to Madam. The old man who sold her flowers brought people to beat us up. That old man was shouting at the door and asking Madam to return the flowers. He even said that Madam was a gossipy woman who stirred up trouble. In short, he scolded her very badly. ”
When Old Madam Zhang heard this, she hurriedly ran in. She shouted at an old woman, “Nanny Zhang, bad news…”
Granny Zhang scolded, “You’ve learned your rules. You’re making a fuss and disturbing Madam. Be careful of the punishment.”
The old woman criticized Granny Zhang’s arrogance silently but said respectfully, “Granny Zhang, Old Wang said that there’s someone outside…”
Granny Zhang was shocked when she heard that. She hurriedly entered the house and reported to Madam Zhang, “Madam, Old Zhou brought people to make a scene at the entrance and asked you to return the flowers to him. He also…
Madam Zhang frowned. “Why are you hesitating? What did that old hooligan scold me about outside?”
Granny Zhang repeated Old Wang’s words. “Madam, what do you think we should do? It’ll be troublesome when Master comes back from the government office.”
Madam Zhang looked at Granny Zhang angrily. “So what if he’s back? I’m fawning over Madam Xu because of him. Who asked him to work under Madam Xu’s man?! Get Butler Gu to give him more money and send him away.”
Granny Zhang hesitated for a moment. “Madam, he’s already here. Can we give him more money?”
“Hmph!” Madam Zhang snorted disdainfully. “Why wouldn’t an old ruffian like him come to cause trouble for money? Hurry up!”
Seeing Madam Zhang’s disdainful expression, Granny Zhang did not dare to say anything else. She could only go to the outer courtyard to settle it with the butler.
At the entrance of the Gu family, there were many idlers watching the commotion.
Someone laughed and hooted. A said, “Old man, tell me, what did this gossipy woman do to your family?”
A passerby said, “That’s right! Is the official’s Madam is also stirring up trouble like the commoners on the streets? Tell me why!”
An old man who was watching the commotion glanced at the few guards standing at the door and persuaded Old Master Zhou in a low voice, “Brother, I advise you to forget it! This is the Head Official of the Ministry of Rites, Mr. Gu. He’s a rich and high-ranking official of the Imperial Court. Killing you is like crushing an ant.”
Old Master Zhou glared at him and shouted, “What kind of noble family is this? My nephew is the Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, and my nephew’s wife is a First-grade Madam. Why would I be afraid of him?”
Along the way, people sneered. “Old Master, stop bragging! Just now, you even asked them to return the flowers to you. You’re just a flower seller.”
Old Master Zhou turned to look at him and smiled proudly. “Let me tell you, I’ve been eating, drinking, and having fun my entire life. I’ve ruined the family business and only found something I like to do when I was old. I planted flowers and raised grass. At the same time, I earned a tew small sums ot money for the children to buy trinkets. I eat good wine and food every few days and live a comfortable life!”
“I’ll tell you what happened!” Old Master Zhou pointed at the Gu family. “The bitch from this family bought a few pots of flowers from my shop and felt that she was kind and doing a good deed. She went around saying that my nephew, and daughter-in-law were not filial to me. She even told others that I was pitiful selling flowers. What was there to pity?”
“Look, I’m wearing wool clothes inside and a gray rat fur coat outside. I also have such a big wardrobe at home. Look at my feet. I’m wearing deerskin boots. ”
With such deerskin boots, my nephew and daughter-in-law got someone to send a few pairs to my house to change my clothes. The woman from this family even said outside that she was unfilial. Do you think this woman is a gossipy woman?”
Someone who knew his stuff said, “That’s right! This set of clothes also costs a lot of money. A good gray rat fur coat costs dozens of taels of silver, and a pair of deer boots costs more than ten taels of silver. That’s all there is to a biological child.”
“Flower seller, go back and ask your nephew if he offended him.”
“Even if you’ve offended him, he can’t spout nonsense!” The onlookers discussed.
When Butler Gu heard the discussion outside, he cursed in his heart. He took the money bag from the doorman’s hand and went forward with a smile. He bowed to Old Master Zhou. “Old Master Zhou, we’ve already planted those flowers. How can we return them? Do you think it’s too cheap? My Madam said that it’s cold. It’s not easy for you to plant and sell flowers. I’ll double the money for you.”
“I don’t care about your stinky money.” Old Master Zhou’s face darkened as he slapped away the silver Butler Gu handed over. “Are you stupid or deaf? Call that bitch out and return the flowers to me. I’d rather give them away than sell them to your family.
“Go in and ask your gossipy woman. Which eye of hers saw that my nephew and daughter-in-law were not filial to me? If she can’t say anything, I’ll definitely tear her mouth apart. I’ll even come to your house every day to make a fuss and publicize your gossipy woman to your family.”
“Old man, don’t be shameless. Do you think you can come to the residence to cause trouble?” Butler Gu criticized with a dark expression. He looked up at Old Master Zhou and turned to cup his hands at Ruyi. “Steward Zhou, look, this is all a misunderstanding. Please persuade…”
Persuade! Dream on! It would be best if Old Master made a big deal out of it! Ruyi waved his hand and looked at him coldly. ‘Your Madam knows if it’s a misunderstanding. Go in and tell your Madam that she’s already so old. She has to accumulate good karma. Be careful not to die and go to hell.”
“How can you say that?” Butler Gu pointed at Ruyi and shouted, “I advise you to stop while you’re ahead. Don’t make a fuss.”
Ruyi took a step forward and sneered at him. “So what if it gets out of hand?! If your Madam can do it, why can’t I say it? I advise your Madam not to be so vicious at her age. She clearly knows that my Madam is pregnant with Young Masters, but she still spread rumors everywhere. What are her intentions?”
Butler Gu pointed at Ruyi and shouted, “Steward Zhou, I advise you not to be unreasonable. My Madam never said these words. Don’t slander her..”
