Chapter 51 Brother

"Then let me ask, if you didn't embezzle the silver, where did the money you bribed me?" Xu Chen walked up to Manager Li, and his questioning face scared him so much that Manager Li took a step back: "The wallets on the ground are all combined, and they have more than thirty taels of silver. Think about Manager Li, your monthly salary is only 2 taels, but in half a month, you can take out thirty taels of white bank bribes at will. Can you tell me where did you come from?"

Manager Li looked panicked, but opened his mouth but was speechless.

"Of course, you can also say that you have saved it for many years, but..." Xu Chen approached and patted Manager Li on the shoulder and said slowly: "If I go to your place now and find something that does not belong to you, guess what will happen?"

Manager Li looked like a dead person, and he knew he was finished.

Xiao Weifeng flipped through the accounts a few times, and he frowned and couldn't understand it. He handed it over to the butler.

The housekeeper looked at it carefully for a few seconds, frowned, and said slowly: "There is something wrong with this account book."

"Shopkeeper Li, do you have anything else to say?" Xiao Weifeng looked at Shopkeeper Li and said.

Manager Li smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"I'm the one who fell." Manager Li looked at Xu Chen deeply, "Young Master Xu said that I can act. In fact, You are the best at acting, and you are convinced..."

Xu Chen took a step back and joked: "Actually, even if I didn't come back with the account book, you'll have a bad move."

"What do you mean?" Manager Li frowned. Anyway, the dead pig is not afraid of boiling water, and his tone is not much respectful.

Xu Chen laughed loudly, walked to Xiao Weifeng and said, "Do you know that Mr. Xiao Weifeng is my godfather?"

When Manager Li heard this, he was stunned and his entire soul was gone.

Seeing the appearance of Manager Li, Xiao Weifeng couldn't help but chuckled and shook his head. He ordered the housekeeper: "Take Manager Li down, check the account book thoroughly, and call someone to go to Manager Li's house to take a look."

"yes."

The housekeeper responded and called the servant to drag the lost shopkeeper Li away.

"Thank you, Miss." Xu Chen smiled and said to Xiao Lian, "I see it all."

Xiao Lian ignored Xu Chen, slowly stood up with a cold face, and said, "Daughter will take his leave first."

After saying that, Xiao Lian took Xiaoqing away.

Seeing Xiao Lian's appearance, Xu Chen couldn't help scratching the back of his head. Didn't this young lady just come to her relatives half a month ago? Why is she coming again now?

Xiao Weifeng saw Xu Chen's appearance and couldn't help but sigh. It turned out that this little brat didn't understand my daughter's wishes at all.

After Xiao Lian left, Xu Chen sat down and chatted with Xiao Weifeng and asked about some things about cultivation. After all, many things were found by him, and no one gave him a positive answer, so he was always a little uneasy.

Seeing that Xiao Weifeng was asking about cultivation questions and his godson’s questions, he naturally knew everything and said everything.

It was not until the afternoon when Xu Chen was satisfied. Finally, he mentioned that he was going back to Huangjia Village. After all, the matter of Fulai Inn had been resolved, and he had nothing to worry about in Fengqi Town.

When Xiao Weifeng heard Xu Chen's decision, he thought about it and agreed. On the one hand, he was not worried that Xu Chen would rebel and leave after the marriage recognition ceremony. After all, Xu Chen is not such a person. On the other hand, he also knew that Xu Chen wanted to find the girls in the village when he went back. How could he not understand that they were all men?

Besides, Xu Chen left for a while, maybe it would be a good thing for his daughter. I hope she can calm down for a while.

After getting the answer he wanted, Xu Chen happily left the living room and went back to the room.

Before the ceremony of recognizing the marriage, everyone in the mansion was busy, as if it was like the New Year, red colors were hung on the trees. A maid also sent a red tunic, saying that Xu Chen had to wear it at the ceremony of recognizing the marriage. Seeing this, Xu Chen had to smile bitterly and take it.

Is it red? He doesn't like such dazzling colors very much.

The bride recognition ceremony was about to come, and the butler came to him privately to tell him about the process of the bride recognition ceremony, which made Xu Chen curious. After all, he didn't know what the bride recognition ceremony could have in ancient times. Wasn't it just kowtow and just give him tea?

The ritual recognition ceremony in ancient times was not that simple. It was a solemn and rigorous thing. This was not a joke. After the butler finished speaking, he told him that he had the right to inherit. When the master abdicated in the future, he might become the head of the Xiao family.

This really scared Xu Chen, but he didn't resist clearly. After all, this matter has not been slightest. Xiao Weifeng is in his prime, so he did not abdicate so early.

The day of the marriage recognition ceremony has finally come.

There was a door to present a gift at the door of the Xiao family. There was also a red table in front of it. Someone on the red table specially recorded the information of the guests and the gifts they gave.

The marriage recognition ceremony was held at Shen time, which was four o'clock in the afternoon, but at noon, many people had already brought gifts to the Xiao family.

Out of politeness, Xu Chen had to stand at the door to pick up customers, mainly to let the well-known people in Fengqi Town remember his face. After all, he didn't stay in Fengqi Town for long, and not many people knew him.

The guest who came put down the gift and saw a young master with a sharp eyebrows and a starry-eyed face and a jade-like face picking up the guests at the door. He stepped forward to ask, and then he knew that this was the protagonist of this marriage recognition ceremony, Xiao Weifeng's godson.

Xu Chen always smiled, polite, humble and polite appearance won the hearts of these big shots. He praised Xiao Weifeng for accepting a good son, but he just didn't know if he really thought so in his heart.

However, it is strange that Xu Chen has never seen Xiao Lian again since the incident with Manager Li.

"Brother Chen!"

When Xu Chen saw that it was Mr. Zhang and Zhang Yun who were here.

Mr. Zhang asked the servants to put the gift on the red table, and the three of them got together to talk.

"I didn't expect Xiao Weifeng to recognize you as his godson. It seems that Fengqi Town will become a new look soon." Mr. Zhang said with a smile.

"No, it's mainly because of Mr. Xiao. I can do whatever I can do," Xu Chen said with a smile.

Because the marriage recognition ceremony had not been held, I saw Xu Chen calling Mr. Xiao Weifeng, but I didn't think anything was wrong. I would be shouting sooner or later.

"Brother Chen, you are really Mr. Xiao's godson. What should I do if Miss Xiao?" Zhang Yun leaned closer and said in a low voice.

Seeing that the two young people had something to say, Mr. Zhang called him and entered the mansion, giving the two people room to chat.

"What should I do?" Xu Chen was puzzled.

"Are you stupid? If you become Xiao Weifeng's godson, then aren't you Miss Xiao's brother?"

Xu Chen was stunned, yes, why didn’t I expect this!

"No wonder the eldest lady seems unhappy recently. She turns out that she is afraid that she will call me brother in the future, hahaha!" Xu Chen laughed. He could already think of Xiao Lian's face that was defeated by his brother.

Zhang Yun looked at Xu Chen with an incredible look on his face. My God, is Brother Chen a papaya head?

Zhang Yun patted Xu Chen on the shoulder and said slowly: "There is a long way to go, Brother Chen."

"What?"

"Forget it, it's okay." Zhang Yun sighed.
