Confucius businesswoman: proud of the world

Chapter 3 Returning the Marriage Certificate

Mrs. Liu Wu's face was ashen, and she wanted to say something to make it up, but she couldn't refute the girl in front of her.

That's right, Kong Linglong alone might not count, but that was when she was Miss Kong's family.The current Kong Linglong, sitting there, represents the entire Kong family who is so rich in the world. If the Kong family proposed not to get married, and Miss Kong raised it alone, it would have a different meaning on a different level.

Kong Linglong then smiled softly: "Mrs. Liu Wu should be clear about these things. After all, the reason why the Liu family is willing to condescend to marry me, a daughter of the merchant family, as their first wife is not because, sooner or later, I will be from the Confucian family." Is it the reason for being at home?"

Mrs. Liu Wu's face twitched again. It's okay not to say something, but once it is torn apart to reveal the ugliness inside, it can no longer be concealed.

Her Liu family, her Liu family is of course because of the Kong family... But, how can it be said in the open, if the Kong family is just an ordinary wealthy business family, her Liu family certainly would not use marriage as a bribe .

But this is the Kong family... Rumor has it that half of the wealth in the world is in the imperial palace and half is in the Kong family. The circulation of silver is only supported by the huge financial resources of the Kong family...

At this time, Kong Linglong picked up the bone china cup on the table, her slender fingers were like onion tubes, Mrs. Liu Wu stared at it intently, a real wealthy lady was nothing more than that.

"Miss Kong," Mrs. Liu Wu finally couldn't help trembling and said, "Don't forget, the marriage letter of the Liu family was agreed upon by both parties when Mr. Kong was in charge of the house, and it was sent to Mr. Kong. It was announced in Xianyang City half a year ago. This matter has already been made public. Since Ms. Kong has become the head of the Confucian family, she should cherish the reputation of the Confucian family. Ms. Kong and the entire Kong family will bear the infamy of the world, right?"

In the end, Mrs. Liu Wu was full of confidence. She was caught off guard by this little girl just now, and she almost forgot that she herself was a wife from the Liu family. She was able to survive in that dragon pool and tiger den. How can Wu be fooled by this little girl.

Sure enough, after saying these words, Kong Linglong's smile turned into a sigh, and she didn't speak for a long time.

Mrs. Liu Wu finally breathed a sigh of relief, and felt complacent again. After all, it was the little girl who said those words in anger, probably because of the contempt the Liu family had treated her before.

But, so what, no matter how rich the daughter of the Shang family is, she is still inferior to others, and it is only natural that she be despised.

Kong Linglong pressed her finger on the cup, and looked at Mrs. Liu Wu with some pity: "Originally, I didn't want to say this, but seeing Mrs. Liu Wu's attitude, I really misunderstood our Kong family very much. In this case , as the current Patriarch of the Kong family, I have to remind the Liu family of some things."

The address of Kong Linglong avoided her and Mrs. Liu Wu as individuals, but directly replaced it with the Kong family and the Liu family.

Mrs. Liu Wu's eyelids twitched.

Kong Linglong smiled gently, but her words were not gentle at all: "Madam Liu Wu, if I remember correctly, the old lady of the Liu family is the third-rank servant in Beijing, right?"

Mrs. Liu Wu didn't know what she was going to say, but seeing her mentioning the old man, she said proudly: "That's right."

Kong Linglong said: "National officials, the first and second grades are almost all the children of the noble family. The old man Liu studied under the master of the courtyard. For decades, his official career has been prosperous, including the generation of the old man Liu. The Liu family has been an official in Beijing for three generations. .”

Mrs. Liu Wu has a sense of pride more and more. You must know that there have been three generations of officials in Beijing, which is already a level that is difficult for the world to reach.It's no wonder that the entire Liu family has an advantage over marrying Kong Linglong, a merchant girl.

Kong Linglong looked at Mrs. Liu Wu's expression, and the corner of her mouth twitched invisibly: "This is probably because Liu's family is in Xianyang City, and they tell people everywhere that they are from a noble family?"

Hearing the words of the noble family, Mrs. Liu Wu suddenly felt uncomfortable. She stared at Kong Linglong: "What do you want to say?"

Kong Linglong raised her onion-like finger and shook it in front of her eyes: "I don't want to say anything, I'm just stating the facts. The so-called aristocratic family should have more than three generations in the court and serve in the capital, and all three generations must be in the middle of the third rank. superior."

Madam Liu Wu turned pale.

Kong Linglong smiled softly: "But I remember that the so-called three generations of the Liu family were officials in Beijing. At the beginning, it seems that there was only one from the seventh rank?"

From the seventh-rank master, the youngest official who can stay in the capital.

"Not only that, the next Liu family is nothing more than a sixth grade. As for Mrs. Liu's generation, because of his outstanding articles, he was favored by the schoolfu's eyes, so he was accepted under the door and was supported. The relationship between the previous emperor's prince's tutor and mentor, so Mrs. Liu was blessed by nature, and finally got the position of the third-rank servant."

Mrs. Liu Wu's complexion was extremely ugly, but Kong Linglong smiled and added: "Madam Liu Wu, am I right?"

Mrs. Liu Wu was suppressing her embarrassment, and she was almost unable to restrain her anger. Did this woman from the Kong family want to say that their Liu family was not worthy of their name?It's really a big breath, even though her Liu family is not a real aristocratic family, but her Kong family has been the lowest merchant for generations!Her Liu family is living on the imperial salary, and marrying her a daughter from a merchant family, I don't know how much face they have given her!

Seeing the agitation on Madam Liu Wu's face, even though she didn't say anything, how could Kong Linglong not know what was going on in her heart.

But Kong Linglong wasn't annoyed at all. From her point of view, the Liu family was nothing more than a low-class family that tried to maintain its facade.

Mrs. Liu Wu suppressed her anger and said: "Miss Kong, it's useless for you to say these things. No matter how bad our Liu family is, we can still speak in front of the emperor. If Miss Kong insists on regretting your marriage, I can't guarantee that the old man will not." What do you think about Miss Kong?"

Kong Linglong wiped the tea stains from the corner of her mouth: "Don't make it so ugly to regret the marriage. Since Mrs. Liu Wu and your Liu family have such a sense of superiority, then I'll just say it. My Kong family has more than ten generations. It is in charge of the economic lifeline of Fengdu, Yundu and other six major capitals. Since the first generation, the Kong family has had the river channel opened by the imperial order. Not only Xianyang City, but every city has a post station set up by the Kong family. One of them, It is also the indelible contribution made by Taizu when he rose to power. My Kong family wants money and people, and your Liu family is just a small official who rose up decades ago. What qualifications, financial resources, and Our Kong family is evenly matched?"

When Kong Linglong was speaking, her fingers tapped the table rhythmically. With her unhurried tone, Mrs. Liu Wu felt like she was about to be driven crazy.

"Stop talking!" When she realized it, Mrs. Liu Wu had already yelled out. Looking at the girl in front of her, she just wanted to yell "shameless!"

Unexpectedly, how dare to turn right and wrong like this, and belittle their Liu family to nothing!She is a daughter of a merchant family, but she is actually a phoenix on a branch. Is it because the Liu family can't afford it?
Mrs. Liu Wu couldn't bear it any longer, and said sharply: "Miss Kong, you don't have to put money on your face anymore. Even if you want to break the sky, the Liu family is still an official of the court! The Kong family! It's still a merchant who can't be mentioned on the stage. !Since the marriage certificate has been issued, if you want to regret the marriage, you can go directly to our old man and ask for it!"

After saying these words, Mrs. Liu Wu felt refreshed.Being suppressed by this little girl for so long, she has long been burning with anger. Fortunately, no matter how coincidental this girl is, black will never turn into white.A merchant even kicked his nose in the face.

But Kong Linglong's expression at this time seemed to be very innocent. The innocent Mrs. Liu Wu really wanted to tear her face apart.

Seeing Mrs. Liu Wu's angry appearance, Kong Linglong smiled inwardly. Really, she really is an unworthy character, and she only has this ability.If that Mrs. Liu were here at this time, she would definitely not be so restless.

Kong Linglong didn't want to talk nonsense anymore, she brushed the pile of embroidery paintings on the table with her hand, slowly pulled out a piece of paper from under the embroidery paintings, and shook it in front of Mrs. Liu Wu, making sure that Mrs. Liu Wu could put every piece of paper on the paper. I can read every word clearly.

After seeing it clearly, Mrs. Liu Wu was slapped hard, as if she had been slapped.

Kong Linglong smiled and said: "Madam is thinking about the marriage letter. This is the marriage letter. It is true that Mr. Liu's birth date is written on the marriage letter, and the family seal of the Liu family is also stamped. But Mrs. Liu Wu, you can see clearly, on it, But only Mr. Liu's birthday, not my Kong Linglong's birthday. Is such a unilateral marriage letter also called a marriage letter?"

Mrs. Liu Wu jumped up from the chair almost uncontrollably, her eyes were fixed on the marriage certificate that Kong Linglong was holding in her hand, "Impossible, impossible...you are forging it!"

Kong Linglong blinked her eyes: "Forgery? You can't talk nonsense, Mrs. Liu Wu, my Kong family forged Mr. Liu's handwriting, Mr. Liu's birthday horoscope, and the Liu family's... family seal?" ?”

One sentence completely crushed Mrs. Liu Wu, she slumped on the chair, unable to digest what happened in front of her at all.

Kong Linglong slowly withdrew the marriage letter. She knew that as the fifth wife of the Liu family, she was not surprised at all that she didn't know the details of the marriage letter in front of her. This is why she knew from the very beginning that Mrs. Liu Wu was just a small character in the Liu family. reason.

If the one who came was the real person in power of the Liu family, he would never mention the marriage certificate over and over again, and regard the marriage certificate as the only bargaining chip.

Mrs. Liu Wu trembled: "No, it can't be like this..."

Kong Linglong smiled again: "Madam Liu Wu, if I guessed correctly, you came to my Kong's house today to talk about the marriage. Madam Liu insisted on you, right?"

Mrs. Liu Wu trembled again and looked at Kong Linglong.
