Eagle-eyed and wolf-watching

Chapter 1500 Don’t think that the whole world is a fool!
Seeing that the eldest brother and his wife were about to quarrel, Wang, who had been sitting aside without saying a word from beginning to end, hurriedly tried to stop them.

After this little episode, Cui Hang continued to ask:
"Besides the usury business and the business of forcing women into prostitution, is there anything else wrong with Yide Company?"

Cui Zhi sighed and said:

"I don't know much about Yide Company. I only knew that this was a good opportunity to make money, so I was obsessed with money and didn't think too much about it!"

"This is your sister-in-law's family business. Your sister-in-law knows more than me!"

When Yun heard her husband push her out, she couldn't help but glare at Cui Zhi, but in order to get Cui Hang's help, she had to speak up:
"The main business of Yide Company is those gambling dens and brothels. We are not the only one that lends money at high interest rates. Other gambling dens also have this problem. I don't know why the Coordination Office targeted us and only targeted our Yun family's business!"

At this point, Yun seemed to have thought of something, and asked Cui Hang:

"Second brother, do you think Ji Xian has teamed up with Gu Sansi? I have long felt that Gu Sansi is not a good person. He has long been thinking about excluding the old Shangshu so that he can become the prime minister of Daqian!"

Cui Hang ignored the question from his sister-in-law and continued to ask:

"How did Yide Company get the license to operate a gambling den and brothel?"

In response to this question, Yun said without hesitation:
“I asked the Gongsun family for help. Our Yun family is the major shareholder of Yide Company, holding 60% of the shares and responsible for the specific operations. The Gongsun family holds 40% of the shares. They helped us get the license…”

Hearing that the Gongsun family was also involved, Cui Hang felt even more troubled. Seeing this, Cui Zhi hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm going to take a step back and then move forward."
"Second brother! If you feel embarrassed about this matter, forget it. I am a useless person and can't help you with anything on weekdays. Don't let me affect your bright future!"

"It's just that your two nephews and nieces are still young. I hope you can raise them up by then. If you do that, I will be grateful for your kindness even in my grave!"

After saying this, Cui Zhi was about to kneel down. Cui Hang reacted quickly. Before Cui Zhi really knelt down, he directly supported him and then began to persuade him:
"Brother, what are you doing?!"

Cui Zhi continued:

"Second brother, this is my fault. I was obsessed with money and greed. If my uncle knew about this, I would be finished with his character!"

"Rather than being tortured to death in the Coordination Office, it's better to die now!"

Seeing his elder brother trying to survive, Cui Hang knew that this was impossible, but he couldn't help but give in out of blood ties.
"Brother! I didn't say I wouldn't help you!"

Cui Zhi was delighted when he heard this, but he still pretended to decline.

"Second brother, if you are in trouble, forget it! I am a useless person, so I will die!"

"Brother, I won't be embarrassed! Not embarrassed!"

Seeing this, Cui Zhi also took advantage of the situation and after talking to Cui Hang and his wife for a few more words, he and his wife Yun left the mansion...

After Cui Zhi left, it was already very late, and Cui Hang and Wang were ready to rest. Cui Hang was very tired after a day's work. Normally, he should have fallen asleep as soon as he got on the bed, but when he thought about his brother and Yide Company, Cui Hang couldn't fall asleep at all. He could only sigh helplessly. Wang, who was lying on the side, hesitated for a moment and then spoke:
"Sir, what are you going to do about this?
Cui Hang smiled bitterly and said:

"I haven't thought about it yet!"

Hearing this answer, Wang said directly:
"Husband, you shouldn't have agreed to this!"

Cui Hang glanced at Wang, then said helplessly:
"I know that if it was someone else, I would definitely not agree to it, but he is my biological brother. What do you want me to do? I can't just watch him being arrested and taken to the Coordination Office, right?"

After these words came out, Wang said with resentment:
"Then why didn't you think so about my cousin's incident last time? My cousin's incident wasn't as serious as your eldest brother's. It was just a few people injured. You could have solved it with just a few words. Why weren't you willing to say hello for my cousin?"

Hearing his wife starting to collect the debt, Cui Hang was speechless and didn't know what to say.

Seeing Cui Hang didn't say anything, Wang insisted:
"Why are you silent? In your eyes, your family is your relative and you are willing to do anything for them. My family are outsiders. Helping them would tarnish your noble character as Minister Cui..."

Cui Hang, who was already upset, heard Wang's true thoughts. He looked at Wang coldly and said:

"Other husbands finally come home, and their wives are all very considerate and gentle. Look at yourself. These things are annoying enough already, and now you are bothering me too?"

"Are you deliberately not wanting me to come back?"

"Humph! My Grand Minister Cui, you still have the nerve to say that. You said you were working overtime at the Ministry of Personnel, but only God knows what you are actually doing! If you think someone's wife is good, go find her!"

"Didn't Wang Xuecheng just like someone else's wife? Look at what happened to him?"

"I'm working overtime at the Ministry of Personnel. Why don't you believe me? Everyone in the office can vouch for me!"

Facing Cui Hang's words, Wang snorted and said:
"Before in Liaoyang, you also said you were working overtime, but in the end you were drinking tea with that bitch. If I hadn't gone, would you two have worked overtime and ended up in bed?"

Seeing that his wife was going to bring up the past again, Cui Hang was furious and said:

"I have explained to you eight hundred times that the Chief Secretary asked me to attract investment. She wanted to open a textile factory in our county. Let's find a place to sit down and talk. How come such a small matter has become so distorted in your mouth?"

"Although she lost her husband, she has a child. As a mother, can you please be more respectful to another mother?"

“Mr. Cui! You still have the nerve to mention that child? Don’t think that the whole world is full of fools…”

Before Wang could finish her words, Cui Hang slapped his wife Wang in the face.

"Snapped!"

After a crisp sound, Cui Hang looked at his wife who was covering her face and said coldly:
"You are talking nonsense! I want you to pay the price!"
