Chapter 178: Comforting His Wife

The preface of the east 'gate' came to say that the east 'gate' celebration was secretly shocked.

If the news came from someone else, he could ignore it. But it is very unusual to say it from the preface of the East 'Gate'! Because he thought: "This storm, I'm afraid it will blow down from Beijing, the third brother didn't say when the storm will come, but it is expected to come within a year or two!" ”

He thought that if the storm started in the imperial court, it would be impossible to engage in confrontation - confrontation with Beijing is always a dead end! In the past two years, if you want to maintain your strength and seek a way out, you can only go to Japan as the preface of the East 'Gate' said, first, you should quickly wash your hands and go ashore, cut off the contact with the Tongfan, and return to your hometown to continue to be a rich man, but if you are reluctant to build the foundation on the sea, and take care of the net worth of these brothers, you have to go to Japan, and if you want to go to Japan, you have to prepare the goods first.

After thinking about it, I feel that in terms of the general trend, it is impossible to "wave" and waste time and effort on the side of South Australia, not to mention that with his current strength, he is not absolutely sure about dealing with Xu Dong.

Thinking of this, his people were not so impulsive, and invited Cao Gu'an to come, entertained him with kind words, and asked him about the internal situation in South Australia. Yang Zhizhong did not hesitate to Tang Xiuji and the others, and when he saw it, he knew that the general owner planned to soften South Australia.

In this year, there have been great changes in South Australia, the older Xu Dong is, the more suspicious he is, and his temper is getting more and more eccentric, many of his cronies and subordinates are often killed by him for saying the wrong word or doing the wrong thing, and even some people die inexplicably, putting everyone in danger! Seeing that the owner of the village was perverse, the people in South Australia gradually deviated from morality, but they were afraid of its prestige, and they did not dare to move for a while, but it was inevitable to secretly hold a group in case of accidents, and Nanao gradually divided into seven or eight large and small forces behind Xu Dong, and Xu Chaoguang was also one of them.

Xu Chaoguang knew his life experience, and his heart was like a thorn in his heart, he was raised by Xu Dong since he was a child, although his mother was noisy in his ears, but the idea of revenge for his biological father was actually very weak. But whenever he saw Xu Dong killing, he couldn't help but think, "Will it be my turn next?" After all, I am not his own child, and he is not necessarily different from me and everyone else. But when it came to ***, he didn't dare to act rashly.

He had already made up his mind to unite important ministers internally and strong reinforcements from outside, and the most reliable reinforcement was none other than his brother-in-law Wang Qing. Every time he heard good news from his brother-in-law from the Northeast, he was also happy in his heart. Unexpectedly, he thought so, but his father didn't think so! Xu Dong didn't have a good impression of Wang Qing, and since he knew that he was very close to Lin Guoxian, his disgust was even heavier, and he even suspected that he had been a ghost in the village at the beginning, although there was no evidence that could not be confirmed, but he had regarded this person as a traitor in South Australia, the greater Wang Qing's power at sea, the more unhappy Xu Dong was in his heart! His bad feelings for Wang Qing are getting worse and worse, and even his attitude towards Zhang Yue'e is getting worse and worse!

Seeing that the situation was not good, Mrs. Xu hurriedly looked for an opportunity and publicly recognized Yue'e as a "god'daughter", in the eyes of others, she also said that Mrs. Xu was tending to be inflammatory, because Zhang Yue'e's husband was in power, so she recognized her as a 'daughter', but Zhang Yue'e knew very well: her mother's biggest purpose was to protect her.

Recently, Dongmenqing returned to southern Fujian, and soon stationed in Penghu, and the South Australian side became nervous, worried that Qing Huaxiang and Penghu people would join forces to be detrimental to South Australia. Mrs. Xu ordered Xu Chaoguang to try to send Zhang Yue'e out more than once, but Xu Dong had already paid attention to Zhang Yue'e at this time, and it was difficult for Xu Chaoguang to make a move. Waiting for the East 'Gate' to enter Penghu, Xu Dong looked at Zhang Yue'e even more! I'm determined to take this 'girl' hostage! At this time, the power of Dongmenqing was not yet big enough to definitely defeat Xu Dong, so Xu Chaoguang was still vacillating between his father and brother-in-law, and he had not yet made up his mind which side he would help. Because Xu Chaoguang failed to help his sister and put her in danger, he couldn't help but feel guilty for his brother-in-law.

Cao Gu'an is the "national uncle" of South Australia, and he is also an important minister in the village, but he himself has no courage and is not enough to form his own faction, so he has always been attached to Xu Chaoguang, but this time he came to run 'errands' for Xu Dong to explore the reality of Qinghuaxiang and Penghu Village.

He knew that Dongmenqing was a ruthless and ruthless man, and it was difficult to deal with when he only had a few brothers, not to mention that now there was such a large fleet? Even Lin Guoxian wants to pass the seat to him. However, Xu Chaoguang told him again: You can't casually promise what the East 'Gate' celebrates, and don't 'leak' the internal news of South Australia to him, lest the East 'Gate' celebrate South Australia and raise troops to attack - Xu Chaoguang's jealousy of this brother-in-law is really not under Xu Dong, and if South Australia also falls into the hands of East 'Gate' Qing, it may not be in line with Xu Chaoguang's interests.

Therefore, after coming to Hou Penghu, Cao Gu'an was in a dilemma and was uneasy, but Dongmen' Qing was very polite to him, and he didn't say a cruel word, but when he mentioned Zhang Yue'e, he burst into tears, and said: "I'm sorry for her, I'm sorry for her!" Leaving her a pot-bellied woman to go to Japan, not being able to accompany her, causing her to have a miscarriage - in case something happens to her, what is the point of me living alone in this world! ”

Dongmen' Qing originally wanted to show that he didn't care about Zhang Yue'e so that he could take things out of it, but at this time, Xu Dong was not fooled, so he did the opposite, showing a posture of living and dying with his wife, so that Xu Dong did not dare to move Zhang Yue'e easily. At the same time, he also 'made friends' with Cao Gu'antao, and he wanted to inquire about the internal situation in South Australia. Seeing that Cao Gu'an didn't respond to his own wooing, he said in his heart: "It seems that my brother-in-law has no intention of helping this time!" "I was unhappy in my heart, but my face was silent, and I comforted Cao Gu'an's good life, and begged him to take good care of Zhang Yue'e after returning to South Australia, and Cao Gu'an naturally agreed.

Since he couldn't get any information here in the East Gate, Cao Gu'an came to ask for his resignation on the second day, and the East Gate" Qing did not stay hard, but said: "I will arrange it, send a few people back with Uncle Guo, and bring a few words to my wife by the way." "Because I gathered my subordinates, I asked who could go to South Australia on my behalf.

Tang Xiuji asked: "Chief Owner, did you send someone this time mainly to explore the reality of South Australia, or did you want to reassure your sister-in-law?" ”

Dongmen' Qingdao: "I don't plan to move Nanao for the time being, and the main reason for going this time is to make Yue'e feel at ease." Last time, I only sent Brother Cai, the water snake, and deliberately pretended not to care about her, which was originally meant to be shown to Xu Dong, but I was afraid that Yue'e would misunderstand and think nonsense. ”

Tang Xiuji said: "If this is the case, then you have to send a lady to see you, and you will know that you attach great importance to her person." She had to know this man. ”

Dongmen' Qing thought about it, and then said to Yang Zhizhong: "Uncle Yang, I can only bother you to run once." Among the people who entered South Australia that day, you were the most respected. One sentence of yours is worth ten sentences from others! ”

Yang Zhizhong hurriedly said: "The master of the ship is serious! Not to mention the refusal, he went to South Australia with Cao Gu'an on the same day.

Because Fu Zhilong had come to South Australia to buy a waterway beacon, Xu Dong had also heard of Yang Zhizhong's name, knowing that his business was not small, but he didn't expect to be recruited by Wang Qing, and he was expected to be an important minister in Qinghuaxiang, so he opened the 'door' of the village and sent Xu Chaoguang to personally welcome him into the village, but he felt very familiar! After thinking for a while, he suddenly slapped his big 'leg' and shouted, "It turned out to be you!" It turns out that you are Yang Zhizhong! ”

Yang Zhizhong stroked his beard and smiled: "I was shipwrecked at sea that day, but fortunately I was taken in by the owner of the village, and I escaped the shark's 'kiss', and Yang was very 'excited'. It's just that when you are in trouble, it is not good to report your real name, so as not to be ashamed. ”

Xu Dong heaved twice and said, "You are also the number one person!" When *** may be a last resort, but is it also a last resort now? Why do you still help Wang Qing do things? ”

Yang Zhizhong smiled and said: "Although Mr. Wang is young, he has great ambitions and magnificent weapons, and no one in the East China Sea can match him!" When he arrived in Japan, he hit it off with the owner of the Wufeng ship, forgot the year's 'friendship', exchanged letters with the king of Japan, poured his cover as before, and fought against the Japanese princes, and raised the prestige of China outside the territory! Now he is one of the eighteen directors of the Donghai Chamber of Commerce, and helps 80,000 Chinese businessmen in the East China Sea. In time, he will become a dragon on the sea, and it is my honor that I, Yang Zhizhong, can help him do things! These words are politely said, but they actually imply ***.

Xu Dong snorted and said, "He is a dragon on the sea, then I am blind!" I didn't know that Jiaolong had visited my village, and he only thought he was a little minion! ”

Yang Zhizhong hurriedly said: "Otherwise, the owner of our family has been sheltered by the owner of the village when he is in trouble, and during this period of time he went to Japan, he was 'by' the owner of the village to take care of his wife. Our general owner also plans to invite the owner of the village to join the East China Sea Chamber of Commerce and work together for a great cause. These few words are a gesture of goodwill.

Xu Dong had no interest in joining the Donghai Chamber of Commerce, and said, "Although your Donghai Chamber of Commerce is powerful, it's a pity that it's too crowded!" Besides, a group of unrelated people getting together may not be able to accomplish anything! ”

The two sides threatened each other and tested each other, although Yang Zhizhong was in the guest place, he was neither humble nor arrogant, and he did not fall behind. Seeing that the words were almost finished, he asked to see his wife Zhang Yue'e. Xu Dong did not refuse him, and ordered someone to invite "Miss" to come out to meet.

Zhang Yue'e came out accompanied by Xiaohong, and when she saw that it was Yang Zhizhong, she was happy in her heart, thinking: "He didn't take me seriously after all." Then he stepped forward to meet Uncle Yang.

Because Xu Dong was watching from the seat, Yang Zhizhong couldn't say it too bluntly, and only said: "Yue'e, the chief owner sent the water snake Brother Cai last time, and it was because they were close enough; Send me this time, relying on the old man to say something, that's because I have enough weight! The owner couldn't come in person, but he wanted you to know that he still treated you the same way he did when he was in South Australia. ”

When Zhang Yue'e heard this, tears couldn't help but fall, and said, "Uncle, I understand, I understand!" You tell him not to worry about me, I'll take care of myself. ”

Yang Zhizhong was overjoyed and said: "If you can think so, then we can rest assured." "Because the gifts brought to Zhang Yue'e by the East 'Gate' celebration, they are all daily necessities, clothes, shoes and socks, jewelry, etc., and there are some candies and snacks that Zhang Yue'e likes, and some of the fresh things he brought back from Japan, all of which are personally selected by the East 'Gate' Qing, which seems to be very attentive, in addition, there are five silver letters, each one hundred taels, and the seal is the handwriting of the East 'Gate' Qing, written with the words "beloved wife Yue'e personally opened".

Xu Dong had no grace, so he sent someone to inspect these items in front of Yang Zhizhong, and saw that there was nothing strange in them, so he let them go. Zhang Yue'e took out 400 taels of 500 taels of silver, 200 taels to the "godfather" on the seat, and 200 taels to the "godmother" in the back hall. After Yang Zhizhong left, Zhang Yue'e took out another fifty taels and rewarded the people inside and outside.

Although Xu Dong hated her husband, it was precisely because of the jealousy in his heart that he became polite to her, and the people in the house knew that her husband was still thinking about her, and he received a large amount of silver, and he became more kind to this young lady. Therefore, after Yang Zhizhong came, although Zhang Yue'e was still in the enemy camp, she was taken care of by her mother, supported by her brothers, and flattered by her family, and her life was significantly better than before.

It's just that I look at my husband across the sea, the sound is blocked, and the pain of lovesickness is inevitable.
