The world of film and television begins with Ning'an as a dream

Is this bad? Or is it that when the younger brother gets married and the parents are still alive, the older brother should be the one to propose marriage? Is this the custom in Tokyo?"

After Wang Yue's reminder, Sheng Changbai realized that Yuan Wenchun was trying hard to change the subject, and it might be that the only person who came to the Yuan family was Yuan Wenchun.

He also frowned and looked at Yuan Wenchun, suddenly feeling that his sister's marriage was not as harmonious as he had imagined.

Seeing that Wang Yue had exposed the truth, Yuan Wenchun could only explain awkwardly, "My dear brother, you are joking. Originally, my parents should have come to propose marriage, but before my parents boarded the ship, something happened at home, so we had to come here. Please don't be offended."

Wang Yue would not let Yuan Wenchun get away with it so vaguely. He said unhappily, "Brother Yuan, you were rude first, but you didn't want to apologize, and you even encouraged the boy next to you to compete. You are offending the Sheng family to death.

It seems that there is no harmony between you Yuan brothers! You are deliberately insulting your own brother. "

Yuan Wenchun's face turned pale when he saw Wang Yue's straightforward words, but he couldn't refute it. He could only explain with a wry smile, "Brother, you are too serious. It's just that Brother Ye wanted to compete because he wanted to show off his skills. It wasn't arranged by me on purpose."

Wang Yue knew Chang Bai's character, so he didn't give him a chance to forgive him. He said first, "If Brother Ye wants to compete, I'm always available. Brother Yuan should go and ask my uncle for forgiveness first."

Wang Yue's meddling in other people's affairs was actually very against the rules, but Changbai understood that this was all for the sake of the Sheng family's reputation, so he didn't say much, but just looked at Yuan Wenchun with a bad face.

Yuan Wenchun felt a little embarrassed. This matter was indeed not fair to the Yuan family. The Yuan family only had a title left that still had some weight. The two families agreed that his parents would come, which was considered to give face to the Sheng family.

Now, the Yuan family suddenly changed their minds before the engagement. Although it was the mother's intention to suppress the new daughter-in-law, it was really a bit impolite.

After all, training a new daughter-in-law has to wait until she is brought home. Even if the Sheng family has any objections by then, that is a family matter.

What is this time?

This is a slap in the face of the Sheng family.

He hesitated for a moment, but still didn't have the courage not to apologize. After all, Wang Yue had made it clear, and it would be hard to justify him if he continued to play dumb and not apologize.

Yuan Wenchun pondered for a while, and could only say with a gloomy face, "In this case, please let Brother Sheng lead the way. I will go to the Sheng family and explain to Uncle Sheng."

Although Sheng Changbai was very dissatisfied with Yuan Wenchun's tone, this was his eldest sister's happy event. Seeing Yuan Wenchun bowed his head and apologized, he didn't want to continue to pursue her, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "In this case, then Yuan asked Brother to come with me."

Of course Yuan Wenchun couldn't go alone, so he had to bite the bullet and ask his wife to come down with him and go to the Sheng family with Sheng Changbai.

Before he left, he gave Gu Tingye a look, wanting Gu Tingye to help teach the boy from the Wang family a lesson.

Gu Tingye was only about thirteen or fourteen years old. He did not think the matter was serious. He just saw Wang Yue insisting on asking Yuan Wenchun to apologize, so he started to have some opinions about Wang Yue.

After Yuan Wenchun left, he looked at Wang Yue and asked, "You from the Wang family, you said you wanted to compete with me? Then let's go and try?"

Wang Yue looked at Gu Tingye's contemptuous eyes and wanted to teach this ignorant guy a lesson, to let him know that there are always people better than you.

So, he looked at Gu Tingye with a half-smile and asked with contempt, "What was the condition that Yuan Jia Dalang asked you to bet on?"

Gu Tingye didn't expect Wang Yue to see through their plan at a glance, so he said angrily, "It's me who wants to compete with you, do you want to compete or not?"

Wang Yue saw that Gu Tingye was angry and embarrassed after being exposed, so he became calmer and said contemptuously, "Compared with you, what good am I?"

Gu Tingye was stunned for a moment. He didn’t expect that this person would actually negotiate conditions directly. Isn’t it said that the Sheng family is a scholarly family?

Isn't it embarrassing to talk about interests with others? Isn't it embarrassing to talk about it?

He felt that this was very abnormal and was somewhat alert, but when he saw Wang Yue's contemptuous look, he said, "Then tell me, what are the conditions?"

He was so excited at the moment that he completely forgot that Yuan Wenchun had already apologized, and there was no need for him to make any bet with Wang Yue.

Seeing how easily Gu Tingye was fooled, Wang Yue understood why this guy was played around by Madam Qin. He was too gullible.

He felt that in the entire TV series, Changbai was a more gentlemanly person and someone he could interact with, while Gu Tingye had a more noble status and was very lucky, so it seemed he could also be used.

He made up his mind, and said calmly, "I will accompany you in whatever competition you want today. If you lose, you can call me big brother when you see me in the future. I will protect you and teach you a lesson."

When Gu Tingye heard Wang Yue's words, he shouted angrily, "Who are you calling brainless?"

Wang Yue rolled his eyes at Gu Tingye and said with disdain, "Who do you think it is? I don't know what your reputation is in Tokyo. Take today's incident for example. If you mess up the marriage between the Sheng and Yuan families, the news will spread to Tokyo in a few days. By then, you will be completely known as a stubborn person."

Gu Tingye's body trembled slightly. He felt that it seemed to make a lot of sense. Those ordinary little things in Tokyo were at most caused by a naughty child, but who doesn't have a naughty child in their family? It could all be explained by the young age.

But today is a big event as the two families are getting married. If he causes trouble during the betrothal ceremony, then it is a problem of his character and he cannot wash it off at all.

Although he admitted that he almost made a big mistake, he was still not used to Wang Yue's arrogant tone, so he said unyieldingly,

"Let's compete, just do as you say. Whoever loses will bow and call the other person "big brother" when they see each other from now on!"

Chapter 162: Calculation!

Wang Yue didn't know that Gu Tingye had actually figured it out. He felt that since the other party had fallen into the trap, he might as well have one more younger brother, so that if he encountered any problems in the future, he would have a younger brother to take the blame.

After all, with Gu Tingye's reputation, he can still make a name for himself among the playboys in Tokyo.

It just so happened that when Sheng Changbai left just now, he wanted to take Yuan Wenchun and his wife with him, and the female members of the family had to go back in a carriage, so he left the horses that Wang Yue and the servant were riding here.

This happened to be a good opportunity for Wang Yue and Gu Tingye, as they could use these two horses to compete.

The result was beyond doubt. Although the Ningyuan Marquisate also had a military background, and Gu Tingye had been practicing horse riding since he was a child, he had never ridden a horse on the battlefield, so he was no match for Wang Yue.

Seeing that he couldn't overtake Wang Yue no matter what he did, Gu Tingye stopped his horse and prepared to cheat.

He shouted at Wang Yue's back, "Your horse is better than mine, so your victory is unfair."

Wang Yue saw that Gu Tingye was trying to cheat, so he rode back to Gu Tingye and said with a half-smile, "You can't afford to lose, why don't we change horses and continue? I'll make you admit defeat sincerely."

Gu Tingye saw Wang Yue coming back on horseback. He looked at Wang Yue's horse and then at his own horse. He could see that the two horses were actually similar.

He wanted to regret it, but facing Wang Yue's mocking eyes, he didn't say anything to regret it. He said awkwardly, "In this case, from now on you are the big brother!"

Wang Yue looked at Gu Tingye's unconvinced look and said casually, "If you are convinced, we can still compete in other things, whether it is archery, horse riding, or poetry and song, I can let you choose whatever you want today, and I will definitely make you convinced."

Seeing how confident Wang Yue was, Gu Tingye did not say anything about competing again. He keenly felt that continuing the competition would only bring humiliation to himself.

So, he said in a depressed tone, "I, Gu Tingye, always keep my word. Since I have acknowledged you as my elder brother, there is naturally no reason for me to regret it."

Wang Yue saw that this boy was quite sensible, so he smiled and said, "Since you recognize me as your big brother, I will protect you from now on."

Although Gu Tingye had already admitted defeat, he was still very dissatisfied with Wang Yue's tone, and said unhappily, "You are not big, but your tone is not small. How can you protect me?"

Wang Yue saw Gu Tingye was angry and unconvinced, so he said with contempt, "Just because you don't have enough brains, I can help you solve many problems. Don't take advantage of me."

When Gu Tingye heard Wang Yue mock him, he became angry and said, "Even if I recognize you as my big brother, you can't humiliate me like this!"

Wang Yue had intended to provoke Gu Tingye so that he would be more receptive to his advice. Now that he saw that he had finally taken the bait, he said sarcastically, "I think Yuan Wenchun wanted you to provoke him on purpose. It shows that your reputation in Kyoto is not that good. Otherwise, he wouldn't dare to do such a thing."

Gu Tingye was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Wang Yue to know his bad reputation right away. But he quickly reacted and said with disdain, "Send someone to inquire about this matter. Who in the capital doesn't know me, Gu Tingye? What's so strange about this?"

Wang Yue looked at Gu Tingye and saw that he actually despised him, so he continued to mock him, "Seeing that Yuan Wenchun is quite friendly to you, I guess your family is either a marquis or a duke.

But in Tokyo, where nobles gather, there must be countless princes and nobles, and innumerable wealthy families. Why do you, a child who has not even reached adulthood, have such a bad reputation?

As far as I know, in Suzhou city where I live, if the local wealthy families or children of officials make mistakes, their families will quickly help to deal with the consequences and will never let their bad reputation be exposed to avoid affecting their future.

But how did you get this bad reputation? Even if your father doesn't care about you as a son, your mother should help you make up for it.

But no one has ever helped you make up for it, which is a little unbelievable. You know, every legitimate son in the family is a resource. "

Gu Tingye was speechless after Wang Yue's analysis. He was not a stupid kid, but no one taught him.

After Wang Yue's reminder, he imagined that other family members in Beijing were indeed like Wang Yue said, and after they got into trouble, their family members would help clean up the mess.

But what about him?

Old Man Gu always beat and scolded him, and Madam Gu was very nice to her, but she did not help him deal with his bad reputation outside, and just watched her own reputation get worse and worse.

Gu Tingye had a bad feeling in his heart, so he asked uncertainly, "Are you saying that my father's wife is deliberately flattering me?"

Wang Yue certainly didn't admit that he knew Gu Tingye. He said nonchalantly, "How should I know that? I don't even know who you are. I can't help you analyze it.

But it seems to me that the reason you have such a bad reputation is that your biological mother is either powerless or no longer alive."

When Gu Tingye heard Wang Yue mention his mother, his eyes suddenly turned red. After all, he was just a boy of thirteen or fourteen years old and didn't have much scheming.

He also understood that Wang Yue had good intentions, so his attitude towards Wang Yue improved a lot, and he said honestly, "I am the second son of Ningyuan Marquis Mansion in Jingdu, and my father's eldest wife is my stepmother."

Wang Yue nodded and said, "It seems that I guessed right, but you are already thirteen or fourteen years old, and your eldest brother is probably an adult. In this case, how could he watch you ruin your reputation?"

Gu Tingye's face suddenly turned the color of liver. He held it in for a long while before saying, "My father married my mother after my eldest brother's mother died. But my eldest brother's mother and my stepmother are sisters."

Wang Yue looked at Gu Tingye's frustrated expression, so he pretended to help analyze the situation seriously and said, "So your brother and your stepmother are of the same mind. It seems that your life in the Gu family is very difficult.

However, although your mother is dead, you still have your uncle or grandfather, you can ask them to help you make the decision. Go and tell your grandfather and uncle about this matter, and ask them to ask your father about the things that have ruined your reputation."

Gu Tingye was even more embarrassed now, and said with a somewhat sad expression, "I came to Yangzhou this time because my grandfather is seriously ill, and he only has my mother as his daughter!"

Seeing that Gu Tingye was so honest in talking about his family affairs, Wang Yue pretended to ponder for a while, and then asked curiously, "Does your grandfather have other relatives?"

Gu Tingye didn't know what Wang Yue meant, so he said sincerely, "There's no one in my grandfather's family, but there are many in the other families."

Wang Yue saw that Gu Tingye didn't understand anything, so he said speechlessly, "In this case, you still have the heart to attend other people's banquets? Why don't you go and see your grandfather quickly, while he is still breathing, so that you can make the best arrangements?"

Gu Tingye was not a fool. After listening to Wang Yue's words and thinking about the question Wang Yue asked, he asked in disbelief, "You mean those people from the Bai family will compete with me?"

Wang Yue nodded and said with certainty, "That's inevitable. With so much money, it's inevitable that they will be tempted to take risks."

Gu Tingye nodded quickly and said excitedly, "Thank you for your reminder, brother. I will go to my grandparents' house right away."

Wang Yue saw Gu Tingye was about to call his servant to go over rashly, so he said speechlessly, "Why are you so stupid? Since Yuan Wenchun used you, why can't you use him?"

Gu Tingye was stunned for a moment, then asked uncertainly, "Brother Yuan asked me to come by boat, which is considered a gesture of friendship. It is reasonable for him to ask me to help, and it is not considered as taking advantage of you, right?"

Wang Yue didn't want to argue with Gu Tingye about this. He knew that the Bai family was one of the richest businessmen in Yangzhou City.

If a businessman wants to gain a foothold in Yangzhou City, he probably has to have very good relations with the entire officialdom of Yangzhou City, or at least feed them with money.

Since the property was later stolen, I think it was probably approved by some local officials who wanted to implement the plan of annexation.

However, in the drama, Gu Tingye made such a big fuss later on, and the other party did not want to offend Ningyuan Marquis Mansion, so they had to let Gu Tingye take the money away.

It’s not that local officials would be afraid of a marquis’s mansion, but these noble families are so intertwined and most of them have intermarriages, so it’s easy to find relatives and friends who can see the emperor.

All their relatives and friends need to do is say a few more words when they meet the emperor, and their official positions will be in jeopardy.

Wang Yue was not helping his younger brother for no reason; it was actually profitable for their family.

Take Old Man Wang for example. The reason why he rushed to Yangzhou at this time was because he knew that Old Man Bai was in poor health.

Mr. Bai had been removed from the family long ago, so this money would definitely be left to the children of the daughter who married into the capital.

The child is far away in Tokyo and certainly cannot take care of the business here. The most convenient thing to do is to deal with the farm property and let the child take the money and leave.

The property sold under this circumstance is certainly priced lower than the market price and is also profitable.

This is why Old Man Wang wants to live in Hangzhou for a while. He needs to mobilize the Wang family’s money to see how much he can buy.

Wang Yue had understood his father's thoughts long ago. He was not going to participate at first, but since he accepted Gu Tingye as his younger brother, then the Wang family could legitimately make a lot of money. Of course, they would not let Gu Tingye suffer too much.

However, he wanted to take advantage but didn't want to become a target and offend others. He could also use Yuan Wenchun. Who asked this guy to plot against his cousin?

Chapter 163 Cooperation!

Wang Yue saw that Gu Tingye was still concerned about Yuan Wenchun's friendship, so he said righteously, "You are just taking a boat, how much can you afford? But he ruined your reputation, which one is the greater loss?"

Gu Tingye was moved to see Wang Yue defending him so much. He said sincerely, "Brother, tell me what you think. If it doesn't cost Brother Yuan too much, then do as you say."

When he said this, he suddenly changed his tone and said uncertainly, "Brother, I just asked Brother Yuan to go over and apologize. I'm afraid he will go to the Sheng family to propose marriage soon. I'm afraid he doesn't have time to help, right?"

Wang Yue looked at Gu Tingye's worried expression and said with a sly smile, "It is impossible to move the betrothal gifts to Sheng's house at this time today. It must be on a good day in two days.

Therefore, you can just invite Yuan Wenchun to live in your grandfather's house, and then ask him to help as a witness and formally receive your grandfather's property."

Gu Tingye looked at Wang Yue and didn't think it was a big deal, so he nodded and said, "In that case, let's do as you say."

……

Yangzhou, Bai Family

Yuan Wenchun, who had been turned down after visiting the Sheng family, was obviously affected in terms of IQ. As soon as Gu Tingye invited him, he immediately agreed.

He felt that since there was a more comfortable place, he couldn't drift on the boat for two days, which was too tiring.

Although Mr. Bai was very ill, when he heard that his grandson had finally arrived with a few friends, he actually ordered his servants to carry him out and insisted on meeting the guests.

Yuan Wenchun could choose not to give face to Mr. Bai, but he had to give face to Gu Tingye. After all, their Yuan family could not compare to the Gu family.

So, after he met Mr. Bai, he and his wife followed Wang Yue and Gu Tingye to respectfully pay their respects to Mr. Bai.

Mr. Bai was very happy, and said with emotion, "I was worried that it would be troublesome for Brother Ye to come here alone to take over so many businesses. I feel relieved to have friends like you take care of it."

When Yuan Wenchun heard what Mr. Bai said, his heart skipped a beat. He didn't expect that he would get involved in other people's family affairs just by being a guest.

He did not doubt Gu Tingye, but he felt that Mr. Bai was cunning and deliberately asked him to help take care of the child at this time because he was sure that Gu Tingye would not dare to offend Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion.
