Chapter Ninety-Four: Haze
Master Tao was buried the next day under the escort of relatives and friends. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Thinking that this person worked hard for the Tao family all his life, but in the end he ended up desolate and died of illness, which inevitably makes people have a short life.
When the dust settles on the matter of Master Tao, everyone will discuss who will take over the Tao family porcelain kiln.
Since the death of her son, Mrs. Tao has been depressed and weak, and she doesn't care about it, but still goes back to her house to eat fast and pray Buddha.
The second master Tao and the third master Tao pushed each other again, and no one cared.
The Tao family became confused, drunk all day long, and when asked him anything, he would only reply with "Who do you love, I don't care anyway"
The second old lady wanted to get a piece of the pie, but he couldn't even enter the courtyard gate these days, he couldn't see anyone, and he couldn't find anyone if he wanted to find someone.
The porcelain kiln is unmanaged, and all the men in the family shirk and say that they don't care, since the death of Master Tao, the people on the porcelain kiln have been scattered, and some have gone home to find another job.
Later, there was really no way, so Mrs. Tao spoke again, and still let Tao Xiushui continue to manage.
It stands to reason that there are elders and brothers in the family, and there is no need for Tao Xiushui and a girl to intervene in the housekeeper, which is different from asking her to help when Master Tao was there.
At that time, there was Master Tao behind to support, and there was anything to find him.
But now she has a different meaning to manage the porcelain kiln, there will be no one to rely on in the future, and everything will be borne by her alone.
For this matter, she personally went to the old lady and said. said that she was a girl, how could her family manage the porcelain kiln in such a big matter, and it was not that there were no elders and brothers at home.
The old lady also had no choice, the crying old man who cried in front of her and wiped her tears went early, and none of the remaining people had anything to do.
Tao Xiushui cried a few times in a row, and then she had no choice but to take this hot potato.
But then I thought about it, managing the porcelain kiln was very powerful for her to enter Beijing.
The porcelain kiln should be done well, and wanting to go there is also a matter of her words.
Even if these people don't agree and use the pretext of transporting goods, she will go.
For this, she also put forward conditions.
The porcelain kiln is her management, and she doesn't need to ask anyone's opinion about anything in the future, only she agrees.
Although the old lady was reluctant, she had no choice but to nod her head in agreement.
The Tao family has entered a dilemma, and no one cares about the girl in front of them.
However, what made Tao Xiushui puzzling was that this time, like last time, as if everyone had acquiesced, no one objected, on the contrary, it seemed that she could manage the house, and everyone was sincerely relieved.
After the funeral of Master Tao, Tao Xiushui is trying to take over the Taojia porcelain kiln. For this matter, the second old lady once went to the porcelain kiln to make trouble, but Tao Xiushui ordered people to drive him out.
It was also from that day that she was seriously looking for the Tao family's illegally obtained official silver.
When she was fine, she and Tao An Tao Tian asked this and that without words, but in fact, they let the demon spirit investigate.
On several occasions she mentioned silver, laughing and saying that she had dreamed that the pottery kiln had hidden a sum of silver with white flowers.
Tao An listened to it and said that it must be because she spent a lot of money during this time.
The demon spirit said that Tao An really didn't know about it, and he didn't feel any touch in his heart, but this person was honest to her.
Later, there was no way, Tao Xiushui took a shovel and went to dig the ground of the porcelain kiln in person.
In her words, she wants to practice her skills.
The crowd only looked at her strangely, but said nothing.
Tao Xiushui has been delayed for two days since the last time Chu Yi told him.
If you can't find it anymore, wait for the court to come and find out about it, and then it's too late.
On this day, as soon as she went out, she saw the little girl running in a panic.
Tao Xiushui wondered in her heart and asked Qingzhu to stop this person and ask.
The little guy replied that the Xiao family was looking for the second and third masters, it seemed that the condition of the old man Xiao had deteriorated, and he wanted to ask if the situation with the eldest master of our family was the same as him.
Tao Xiushui was full of surprise, afraid that he had heard it wrong, and asked again, only then did he confirm that Old Man Xiao was seriously ill.
Could it be that Old Man Xiao is also ...... Otherwise.
Tao Xiushui didn't dare to think about it, so he led Qingzhu to Xiao's house.
Before I entered the door, I felt that there was a mess inside, and after knocking on the door for a while, I didn't see the little guy come to open the door.
Until Xiao An hurriedly came out of it to invite Lang Zhong, and saw that it was her who was stunned and said:
"My father is probably not very good, Lan'er is in the hall with my mother, if you want to go over, I will ask the little maid to show you the way"
Tao Xiushui came here to confirm this, and now he hurriedly excused himself when he heard it:
"You go and get busy, I'm fine, I just want to ask about your father's situation"
Xiao An shook his head suspiciously, "It's not good"
"Got it, you're going to get busy"
The two hurriedly said a few words and left.
Tao Xiushui didn't go to Xiao Lan'er, thinking that people were sad, so they had time to entertain themselves, so they didn't leave any more trouble.
When Tao Xiushui returned to the porcelain kiln, he heard the news of Old Man Xiao again after lunch.
She was sitting outside at the table writing on the porcelain.
At this time, I came back from outside and told Tao An that Old Man Xiao was gone.
"What?" Tao Xiushui threw away the pen in fright.
Who would have thought that less than two days later, Bai Cheng would go to two big merchants one after another.
What was the reason why both of them got sick, and it became worse day by day, until they died one after another.
Tao Xiushui felt that something was a little strange at this time.
To say that it is a coincidence, this is too coincidental, to say that it is not, but how to explain this businessman who died one after another.
This phenomenon made her feel like she had fallen into a trap.
The day of Old Man Xiao's funeral was also a day later.
This has always been the leader of the merchants in Baicheng, just because he has a second brother who is an official in Beijing.
Tao Xiushui wanted to know what his second brother would say if Old Man Xiao went so unexplained.
Second Master Xiao, from the time his brother lost the goods, until he was imprisoned and then passed away today, did he seem like a stranger and didn't say anything?
If ordinary relatives see that their relatives have lost their goods, they have to tell the county government to look for them quickly.
And what happened when the second master Xiao didn't say a word? Tao Xiushui couldn't figure it out.
What Tao Xiushui didn't know was that the Xiao family had received the advice of the second master Xiao, and they didn't let them go to the county government to find the goods, nor did they let them go to the county government to make trouble, but the old man Xiao didn't listen, which caused the current situation.
Ren County Ya arrested them, and he didn't say a word.
A few days later, Baicheng really ushered in a haze.
Since the death of Master Tao and Old Man Xiao one after another, those Shang Jia who were imprisoned with the two of them have also died of illness.
None of them are as healthy as they were before.
After Tao An finished telling her about this, she went to Xiao's house again to find Xiao An.
The only way to understand these things is to ask this person for help.
This time she went to Xiao's house, and she felt that there was a depression everywhere.
