Chapter 172
Zhao Rong's interest was suddenly raised, it was the first time he had done this. Originally, he had been discussing with Xiao Tao and the two of them for a long time yesterday, and had been thinking about various details, but this kind of thing was the first time for both of them. Even when Zhao Rong was young, no matter how naughty he was to play tricks on people, he didn't think about taking anyone's things.
As long as it wasn't for the fact that the Zhao family had forced Zhao Rong to such a point, he wouldn't have made such a move. But no matter what, he was curious now about what Xiao Tao's actions were this morning.
I was not in a hurry to look at the two invitations, as long as the things were in hand, Zhao Rong would be at ease. Moreover, the eldest brother of the merchant has just returned to the Zhao family, thinking that it is impossible for the two elder brothers to come to the county seat so soon, and now they can relax for a while.
And now, what Zhao Rong wants to know more is the specific situation of Xiao Tao's actions today. He pulled Xiao Tao by the hand, and the two of them came to the seat next to them and sat down. Only then did Zhao Rong speak: "Xiao Tao, then tell me, after you went out of the hall this morning, everything went well?"
Seeing that his young master was very interested in his morning experience, Xiao Tao was of course happy to share with the young master what he had experienced. Now he and the young master are one heart, and they both care about each other, and of course they care very much about what the other party does.
"Everything is still going well, in the morning I took advantage of the quarrel between those people to walk out of the door of the hall, fortunately in the layout of those courtyards, young master, you also told me, so I quickly found the second butler's study. ”
Xiao Tao sat on the chair, carefully recalled what she had done in the morning, and told Zhao Rong directly: "As soon as I entered the study, I went straight to his desk, young master, you also said that there is such a thing as an invitation, it is estimated that it is in the hands of these outer courtyard housekeepers in the past few days, and the most likely place for them to be placed is the desk." ”
Now Xiao Tao feels that the reason why the action is so smooth is that the main thing is that the young master's previous homework is very sufficient.
Not only told himself the layout of the small courtyard, but also guessed the approximate location of those invitations, so that he could successfully complete the task. Just like the young master said, the invitations all look exactly the same, stacked one by one. "At that time, they were placed in a very conspicuous place on the desk, and I could see at a glance that those must be the kind of invitations you said, young master. ”
Speaking of this, Xiao Tao remembered that there was still a moment of hesitation in her own actions in the morning. After all, the invitations like the young master said should be stacked together, but what I saw was two stacks of invitations, one high and one low, and I thought about it at that time, how to take out two invitations from them. In the end, he chose the highest stack and took out two copies, thinking of this, Xiao Tao quickly told the matter.
"It's just that the young master, those invitations are not stacked together as you said, they are divided into two stacks, one high and one low. I hesitated for a moment, not knowing what to do, but then I saw that time was not waiting, so I simply took two copies from the bottom of the high stack. ”
Hearing Xiao Tao talk about this accident, Zhao Rong didn't understand why they were all invitations, but this second housekeeper Zhao divided them into two stacks, is there anything special about this? Is there anything different about invitations? Thinking of this, he was a little anxious to see those two invitations, so he hurriedly said to Xiao Tao.
"I don't think so, the book says they all look the same. Have you read it carefully, by the way, you quickly take out the two invitations you got in your hands and show them to me. Xiao Tao still answered his young master's question first, "No problem, young master, I have checked, those invitations all look exactly the same, whether it is a high stack or a low stack, those things are the same." ”
After Xiao Tao finished saying this, he stood up and motioned to Zhao Rong to wait a while. After that, he turned around and went to the place where he had hidden the invitation in the morning. Where is it, Xiao Tao found the book, took out the two invitations from it, came to Zhao Rong's side again, and handed the invitations to his young master with both hands.
In fact, Zhao Rong also read this thing for the first time, he only saw it in the book, and knew that it was a kind of post that large families needed to use when they invited people to be guests or come to greet them. So he only roughly knows that these things should look the same, unless someone else makes a post in his own name, which has his own characteristics. But for the Zhao family, no one really wants to do this kind of thing.
Moreover, the seventieth birthday of the four elders held by the Zhao family this time was to invite those celebrity squires in the name of the Zhao family, so the invitation must be the same. Zhao Rong stretched out his hand and put the two invitations in his hand and looked at them carefully. At a glance, Zhao Rong found that these two did look exactly the same.
This kind of invitation of the Zhao family is actually of uniform specifications, but the paper used is more expensive, and the cover is printed with a painting by an ancestor of the Zhao family. That ancestor was indeed a master of calligraphy and painting at that time, and his works were also widely circulated.
This ancestor can also be regarded as a representative figure in the history of the Zhao family. But after all, it has been a long time since then, so it has been preserved in the family, and there are not many of his paintings, and this painting printed on the cover is the most representative work of that ancestor.
Zhao Rong had seen a copy of the painting elsewhere. There are many times when people talk about these paintings at family gatherings. So for this painting, Zhao Rong still has the impression of support, he didn't expect that the Zhao family actually made this painting and printed it on their invitations.
After reading the cover, Zhao Rong opened the invitation, but the inside was snow-white. He turned it over and turned it upside down, and had to read the invitation two or three times, and the precious piece of paper was blank except for the painting of the ancestors. Could it be that the invitation is like this, so that everyone can come to the Zhao family with this piece of paper? Zhao Rong always felt that something was wrong in his heart, but he couldn't understand what was going on.
Swept from the corner of his eye, staring at the two invitations in his hand with burning eyes, Zhao Rong decided to suppress the faint uneasiness in his heart. Xiao Tao took a lot of effort to get this invitation, so don't let Xiao Tao's enthusiasm be dampened because of the unwarranted uneasiness in her heart. Take a look at the latest chapter of "My AR Goddess Claw Book House" to read it for free for the first time.
