Chapter 230

Gong Yu also picked up another invitation, since he knew that when the eldest brother of the merchant was there just now, his eldest brother did not show any abnormality, until he picked up this invitation, the eldest brother's body froze slightly, so the problem should be this invitation.

Flipping through the invitation, Gong Yu was also stunned. Although he has never accepted an invitation from anyone, he is still very clear about the appearance of ordinary invitations. And he has seen a lot of invitations from others to his eldest brother. Since the eldest brother was admitted to Xiucai, their family has received a lot of invitations to the eldest brother to the banquet every day. So Gong Yu is also very familiar with the invitation. Seeing that nothing was written in the invitation, he also understood why the eldest brother froze a little just now, this invitation is not complete.

Gong Yu didn't know why his eldest brother clearly saw this flaw, but he didn't say anything. He could only ask his eldest brother's opinion with his eyes. Anyway, his eldest brother didn't say anything to the merchant, so it can be seen that it is not very appropriate to ask directly.

Sure enough, when Gong Yu looked at Gong Jian, he found that his eldest brother was comforting him with his eyes, and nodded slightly. At this moment, he finally knew that his eldest brother was still sure of his attitude just now, so he retracted the idea of asking the merchant, and simply put the invitation back on the table without showing any abnormality.

And here Gong Jian has also put the invitation back on the table, and said to the merchant with a calm expression just now: "Hmm." Brother Merchant, we know this plan, and we guarantee that we will arrive at Zhao's house on time that day. This matter can go so smoothly, thanks to the efforts of the merchant's brother, you have worked hard. ”

When the merchant heard Gong Jian say this, he immediately modestly said that he didn't do anything, the most important thing was that Zhao Rong and Xiao Tao were capable, which contributed to this matter. The two shirked each other a few more words, and the merchant said goodbye and left.

He also knows the current situation of the Zhao family, and every servant is very busy. Therefore, if he leaves the Zhao family for too long today, even if the steward doesn't say it on the surface, he will definitely be unhappy in his heart, so he came out this time to thank the handsome Zhao Shiyi, but having a backer does not mean that he can act arbitrarily.

Of course, about his departure from the Zhao family, the merchant also said the matter directly. Although he didn't know how Zhao Shiyi was in such a good time to get himself out of the Zhao family, he still had his own guess estimate that this stroke must have come from his old friend.

Regarding Huo Lang's speculation, of course, Gong Jian directly asked the merchant's old friend for help, so that the merchant could leave the Zhao family in time. There is no problem with the exchange of information between the two sides, everything has been figured out. The merchant also said that he also wanted to hurry back to Zhao's house, and before leaving, he confirmed with Gong Jian again, and after the time of the two parties' meeting, he left with confidence.

And after the merchant left the room, Gong Yu raised the question in his heart: "Big brother, you also saw that there is no writing in this invitation just now, how can we take the invitation to Zhao's house at that time?"

In fact, what Gong Yu wanted to ask more was, why did he and his eldest brother have already discovered this problem, but the eldest brother didn't let himself ask the merchant about the content?

Knowing the doubts in his younger brother's heart, Gong Jian of course smiled and said: "You have also heard, the situation of the Zhao family is even more severe than we imagined, if they didn't have this elder's seventieth birthday before, we wouldn't be able to enter the Zhao family." And this invitation must have been obtained by Zhao Rong and Xiao Tao, who worked hard to get it. As for the fact that there is no content written in it, it is easy to understand, after all, such invitations may be easy for them to access. ”

Gong Jian picked up the invitation card on the table again, looked back and forth, and continued to explain to Gong Yu: "The kind of invitation with the content written is easy, maybe Zhao Rong and they can't get it." Another reason is that invitations that have already been written are already fixed to invite someone, and such invitations, if they move at will, are easy to be discovered by others. ”

Of course, what the brothers didn't know was that the main reason why they sent them two blank invitations was that Zhao Rong and Xiao Tao didn't know that the invitations themselves should have been written. For them, they only have a general impression of the invitation, knowing that it should be a thing that should be printed uniformly, and it is not clear whether it is large or small. This is also Xiao Tao's more cleverness, seeing that the butler has two stacks of such identical things on the table, he naturally thinks of him as an invitation.

And the reason why he took two blank invitations was not that he didn't dare to take those who wrote well, but that Xiao Tao didn't realize that he should write in them. Moreover, he just chose the tall stack to take away, thinking that since the number of that stack was large, it should not be obvious to take two by himself.

By mistake, these two blank invitations were sent to the two Gong Jian brothers, although Gong Yu understood at this time, what his eldest brother said was indeed the truth. But he was indeed a little embarrassed at this time, "But big brother, if we go to Zhao's house with a blank invitation, it is estimated that the people guarding the door will not let us in." ”

Hearing Gong Yu's question, Gong Jian couldn't help but sneer: "Of course you won't let us in." Just holding a blank invitation, who knows who is invited, the two of us are not familiar with each other, no one knows us, how can we enter the Zhao family?"

Gong Yu was in a hurry now, "What should I do about the big brother?" Zhao Rong's little brother must have worked a lot to get the invitation, but the blank invitation can't be used, what if we can't enter the Zhao family at that time?"

As soon as he said this, Gong Yu suddenly realized that his eldest brother had already made an appointment with the merchant just now. And looking at the appearance of the eldest brother, it is not that there is any embarrassment at all, so he is so anxious now, it must be because he has not thought of the solution that the elder brother has already thought of. This time, he was not in a hurry, sat back in the chair, and said with a smile: "Big brother, if you have any way, say it quickly, don't let my brother and me be so anxious." ”

Seeing that his second brother finally realized the problem, Gong Jian stopped selling Guanzi, he clicked on the invitation card on the table, and then said: "Although the blank invitation card cannot be used, it has an advantage, that is, we can write it at will." ”
