Gu Qingxue took a sip of tea and smiled indifferently. “In such a large family, there will always be good and bad people. The Qi family’s military achievements are outstanding, so naturally, they have their merits. However, the family’s business is usually managed by the women, so it’s hard to say.”
Qin Yun immediately understood what Gu Qingxue meant, and her eyes widened in surprise. “Eldest miss, I always thought you didn’t like the Qi family. I didn’t expect you to speak up for the Qi family.”
Gu Qingxue took another sip of tea and casually placed the teacup on the table. “It’s not that I don’t like the Qi family. I don’t know them well, and I’m just unhappy with their behavior over the years. However, no matter what, they are grandmother’s family. If they don’t go too far, I don’t want to care about many things and can turn a blind eye to them.”
She knew very well how difficult it was for a strong-headed woman like her grandmother to lead the declining Qi family to where it was today. Her grandmother had put in a lot of effort, so her feelings for the Qi family must be extraordinary.
She did not casually comment on the various things that happened between grandmother and the Qi family. She also respected grandmother’s future choice and would not casually comment on the Qi family.
However, based on the Qi family’s actions up until now, she was certain that she would not have any intimate interactions with them.
Just as Gu Qingxue was thinking about this, an arrogant and domineering voice rang out, “If 1 tell you to get the money for this Young Master, just do it. Why are you talking so much nonsense? Do you think I won’t ask my father to teach you a lesson?”
Gu Qingxue furrowed her brows and could not help but look out the door.
He saw a young man dressed in an extraordinary manner. He looked to be in his early twenties and was walking in arrogantly.
A middle-aged man followed behind the young man. He was so anxious that his forehead was covered in sweat. He followed the young man in with a bitter face. “Young Master, you can’t do this. The Old Master told us not to give you any money. If you really want money, why don’t you ask the Old Madam? ‘
“My mother gave me some silver this morning, so I can’t go and ask for it today,” Qi Minghao said.
The shopkeeper was dumbfounded and asked Qi Minghao, “Young Master, then why do you still want silver?”
“Bulls.h.i.t! Naturally, it’s because I’ve used up all my silver! Speaking of which, silver is not something that can last long, so you can’t blame me. That silver was only enough for this me to play two rounds in the gambling house before it was gone, so I’m naturally helpless now,” Qi Minghao said as a matter of course.
“Young Master, the Old Master has ordered that you are not allowed to gamble anymore. If the Old Master finds out about this, wouldn’t you be in big trouble? ” The shopkeeper was terrified and looked at Qi Minghao in shock.
Qi Minghao’s face also revealed a regretful expression as if he had said something he should not have, but he quickly calmed down. He glared at the shopkeeper and fiercely said, “Cut the c.r.a.p. As long as you keep your mouth shut, no one will know about this.’
The shopkeeper shrunk back in fear, then looked up to see Gu Qingxue sitting not far away. “Young Miss, may I ask who you are?”
Qi Minghao followed the shopkeeper’s gaze and looked ahead. The moment he saw Gu Qingxue, he was deeply stunned and could not believe his eyes..
