Chapter 202 The Clown and the Monkey
Chapter 202 The Clown and the Monkey
Chen Jinyang knew that Zhu Haibo was playing tricks on him, so he snorted coldly and said, "You clown!"
Zhu Haibo didn't get angry after hearing this. He smiled and said, "If I'm the clown, then Lieutenant Chen is the monkey of the monkey trainer."
Chen Jinyang was already filled with rage. Hearing what he said, he stepped forward, grabbed his collar, and said through gritted teeth, "Don't force me to do anything! You know my methods!"
"Hey, what are you doing? You two are Marshal Li's right-hand men. It would be bad if you get out the news of a fight here!" Lan Xiaodie quickly stood up to dissuade them.
Zhu Haibo sneered and said, "Mr. Chen! If you have the time to bother me here, you might as well take care of your wife. Her relationship with the Bai family is already suspicious. Now, knowing that the Bai family has a grudge against the Marshal, you are still so close to them."
Seeing Chen Jinyang's expression change slightly, he smiled and continued, "I trust Brother Chen. No matter how much they say that you and your wife took advantage of the Bai family, I don't believe it."
"It's groundless and nonsense!" Chen Jinyang said and left.
Wu Yiren was fiddling with the Western gadgets she brought back from Bai's Trading Company in the house.
The bed was filled with handbags, leather shoes, cosmetics, and little dresses.
Ever since arriving in Yangcheng and witnessing the lives of the ladies and daughters of truly wealthy families, Wu Yiren's inner disparity has grown.
I remember that she had everything she wanted in the Bai family.
Now that I am married to Chen Jinyang, I have to budget carefully every time I want to buy clothes.
During this period, Chen Jinyang ignored her and did not give her any money.
She knew that Chen Jinyang was forcing her to give in, but how could she bear it! So she thought of her eldest cousin Bo Song.
Bo Song treated her very well, even better than before in the old house.
"Yiren, even if our bones are broken, we are still connected by tendons! Grandpa and grandma are a little dissatisfied with your aunt, but they also talk about your aunt and you a lot. I told them the news of your marriage. Look, they sent someone to send this to you." Bai Song handed her a brocade box.
When Wu Yiren opened it, she saw that it was a jade ruyi.
Her eyes turned red and tears fell.
"Alright, let's keep in touch. Tsk, look at what you're wearing! When has our eldest daughter of the Wu family ever worn such tacky clothes? Come on, let your cousin take you to pick something out!"
After that, Bo Song took her to the store to pick out a lot of things.
The door was opened and Chen Jinyang stood at the door with a dark face.
Wu Yiren was wearing a gorgeous dress and was in a good mood.
"Does it look good? I heard it's the latest Western style."
Chen Jinyang asked coldly, "Where did you get the money to buy these things?"
Wu Yiren smiled and said, "It didn't cost any money."
"No money spent? Could it be that it fell from the sky?" Chen Jinyang said sarcastically.
Wu Yiren rolled her eyes at him. She was in a good mood and didn't bother to argue with him. "My eldest cousin gave it to me."
"The Bai family and Marshal Li are now at loggerheads. Why do you still want to associate with the Bai family?" Chen Jinyang said angrily.
Wu Yiren's good mood was completely gone.
She gritted her teeth and said, "Marshal Li, Marshal Li, Marshal Li! You listen to him so much and love to work for him, but what do you get in return? The little money he gives you is not even enough to buy a pair of shoes! Did I marry you just to suffer?"
"Wu Yiren!" Chen Jinyang stepped forward and grabbed her hair, staring at her fiercely, "Don't force me to do anything to you!"
Wu Yiren cursed angrily: "Chen Jinyang, I was really blind at the beginning!"
The quarrel lasted until midnight, and Chen Jinyang slammed the door and left.
Mei'er applied medicine to Wu Yiren while crying.
"Miss, let's go back to Ancheng!"
Wu Yiren laughed self-deprecatingly: "What's the point of going back to Ancheng?"
"Go tell the master and the lady."
"What's the point of saying it? They still have to rely on Chen Jinyang to make a living. How could they stand on my side and speak for me?" Wu Yiren looked at the dark sky in despair.
People outside are saying that Marshal Li's son and the third son of the Sheng family are the result of cause and effect, and that retribution is inevitable.
What about her?
If Nanchun knew about her current fate, he would definitely say, "Cause and effect will come, and retribution will come."
The next morning, Chen Jinyang went to find Marshal Li.
"Why are you here so early?" Marshal Li was having breakfast.
Chen Jinyang smiled sheepishly and said, "I thought about it all night yesterday and I think what you said makes sense. I was too cautious. Marshal, when the people from Jincheng arrive, let me lead the charge!"
Marshal Li raised his eyebrows, neither agreeing nor refusing.
He originally wanted Chen Jinyang to take the lead.
But now that Chen Jinyang suddenly brought it up himself, he was a little unsure of his thoughts.
Seeing Marshal Li hesitate, Chen Jinyang stepped forward and poured him a cup of tea, then continued, "You know my wife is related to the Bai family. After arriving in Yangcheng, my wife and I also visited Bai Garden. On the surface, our relationship with the Bai family is pretty good."
Marshal Li nodded.
"If my wife pretends to visit Baiyuan, it will help them lower their guard. When they open the door, we will rush in when they are unprepared. This way we can also reduce some unnecessary casualties." Chen Jinyang explained.
Since Chen Haibo said that, it means that the Marshal became suspicious of Wu Yiren because of her identity and her visit to Baiyuan.
Only by taking the initiative to attack the Bai family can the Marshal's doubts be dispelled.
Marshal Li pondered for a moment, took a sip of tea, and said nonchalantly, "Are you sure? Don't be so self-defeating as to put your wife in danger. If the Bai family uses her to threaten you... that would only put us in a passive position."
Chen Jinyang hurriedly said, "General, Yiren has been close to the Bai family recently, so they won't be on guard. Besides, if that really comes to that, I won't need you to take action. I will personally resolve the hidden danger."
Marshal Li was a little surprised.
Everyone knows that Chen Jinyang is obsessed with Wu Yiren.
They have only been married for less than half a year. Could it be that he has changed his mind?
"Can you bear to do that?" Marshal Li was skeptical.
Chen Jinyang said nonchalantly, "She's just a woman. If the old doesn't go, the new won't come."
Marshal Li laughed heartily and patted his shoulder vigorously. "You're right to think so! To be honest, I wasn't happy with your decision to marry her. But since I saw how much you loved her, I granted your wish. Do you still remember Xiao Han, the driver who was beaten to death by Wu Fa?"
"Remember, I heard Yiren say he was a traitor."
Marshal Li sneered, "He's not a traitor at all! Wu Fa killed him because his affair with Wu Yiren in the Bai family mansion became public knowledge. Why do I no longer trust Wu Fa? It's because he's been lying non-stop, never telling the truth!"
After hearing this, Chen Jinyang's face turned pale.
The Wu family was indeed lying to him!
Originally, Chen Jinyang was reluctant to let Wu Yiren take the risk.
And at this moment, he wished he could kill her with his own hands!
