"From tomorrow I will leave the Financial Secretary and return to my post in three months' time, during which time all the affairs of the Department will be entrusted to the two of you."

Tong Yuqing and Bai Qiaoxuan both thought that they had heard it wrong, and they looked at each other, and when they saw each other's surprised expressions like themselves, they knew that they had not heard it wrong.

"Father, what do you mean...... Do you want us to exercise your authority for these three months? ”

Tong Fengyi nodded.

"But father, although I have worked with you for two years, I know a general idea of managing the Financial Secretary. But if I really want to take over the Financial Secretary, I can't afford this heavy responsibility now. ”

"Didn't you have to bear it alone, didn't you have Qiao Xuan?" Saying that, Tong Fengyi looked at Bai Qiaoxuan.

In fact, Bai Qiaoxuan's heart is also the same as Tong Yuqing's, and he doesn't understand what Tong Fengyi's move is, Tong Fengyi's decision must be Qiu Zeyuan's decision. So far, he has never even seen the face of this future father-in-law, and he has been entrusted with such a lot. Does Qiu Zeyuan really trust him unreservedly? Absolutely not, how could an Overseer on one side be so rash? Even if he was the son-in-law he identified, he would not hand over Pudong's financial power to him without even seeing him. What would that be for......

To test his faithfulness? Then you don't have to hand over the entire financial secretary to him, you just need to give him a relatively important position...... and last night, Lu Jingwu was able to enter Yejin smoothly, proving that he has a hidden pile in Yejin whose strength should not be underestimated. However, Qiu Zeyuan was able to appear in front of him and Lu Jingwu silently, and he was obviously prepared. It stands to reason that Qiu Zeyuan and Tong Fengyi's top priority should be to get rid of this spy or traitor, so at this time......

Bai Qiaoxuan suddenly felt empowered, and replied: "The director trusts and entrusts him with important responsibilities, Qiao Xuan does not dare to refuse, so he can only do his best to share his worries for the overseer and the director." ”

Tong Fengyi saw that he was deaf and clear-sighted, spoke decently, and did not have the panic and anxiety when ordinary people were given heavy trust, and he couldn't help but think a little higher about this young man. In a blink of an eye, I saw that my daughter was still confused, with a melancholy face, and she felt that her cultivation in the past two years had not made her truly mature. Sure enough, Tong Yuqing immediately asked another question that made both of them cry and laugh.

"Father, since ancient times, there have been no two days in the sky, and there are no two kings in the country. If you want the two of us to act as the acting director, who should we listen to if we disagree? ”

Tong Fengyi looked at his daughter helplessly and did not answer. On the contrary, Bai Qiaoxuan replied: "Naturally, I listened to Miss Tong, I first came to the Financial Department, and I didn't know much about the things in the department. If there is anything wrong, please ask Miss Tong for your forbearance. ”

Hearing Bai Qiaoxuan's answer, Tong Fengyi neither agreed nor denied, which made Tong Yuqing even more confused, she knew that her father would answer her questions very patiently in the past, but if she didn't answer, she wanted her to understand the key by herself, so for today's plan, she can only accept it first, and then think about it carefully after returning home.

The Overseer's House and the Children's House were rebuilt at the same time, but the Overseer's House was still some time away from completion. This is not only because the Overseer's Mansion is larger, but also because Qiu Zeyuan is a very nostalgic person, and he ordered that the original main building should be kept as it is, and only some scenery should be rebuilt. This was a headache for the engineers, and it was a real problem to make the combination of East and West in harmony with nature. Fortunately, Qiu Zeyuan gave them enough time, and they were not in a hurry. When Bai Qiaoxuan arrived in Yejin, the new main building in the Overseer's Mansion had just been completed, and the owner of the Qiu family had only been staying for ten days. This new building happens to be used to receive Bai Qiaoxuan.

The autumn wind at night was originally extremely bleak, but all the lamentation and grandeur of the Overseer's Mansion would be dissolved, just like Bai Qiaoxuan's restless heart in the past few days. When he stood still in front of the Overseer's Mansion and looked at the three big characters "Overseer's Mansion" inlaid with white marble, he felt reassured. In order to let no one dare to underestimate the Bai family in Puxin Prefecture, even if they are immediately shattered?

Yan Bingzhi saw Bai Qiaoxuan stop at the door for a long time, and reminded him: "Bai Gongzi ......"

Bai Qiaoxuan came back to his senses and said to Yan Bingzhi with a smile: "Let's go." ”

"After the main entrance, there is the front courtyard. Bai Gongzi, please take a look at ......" Yan Bingzhi was ordered to introduce the layout of the Overseer's Mansion to Bai Qiaoxuan. "The east wing is the opening office, and the west wing is the inner account room; The east ear room is the kitchen, and the west ear room is the storeroom; The east and west gatehouses are respectively the guard room, the telephone room, and the communication room. Bai Qiaoxuan looked at the carved beams and painted buildings, and the vermilion lacquer columns, although they had shown the traces of time, they had not been reduced by half of their solemnity.

"Past this gate is where the Overseer, Aunt Dai, and Miss Daisy were to live. The hall house is where the Overseer lives, the east room is where the young lady lives, and the west room is where Aunt Dai lives in. ”

"Aunt Dai? Is it the Overseer's sister? "When Bai Qiaoxuan was at home, he heard from his father that Pudong's wife died young, and he only left a daughter for the Overseer before he died. The Overseer was urged to continue, but the Overseer and his wife were so close that they would rather have no children than remarry. It's just that Qiu Yiyou was still in her infancy when her wife passed away, and she couldn't do without her family to take care of her. The Overseer's sister took the initiative to take care of the Overseer's daily life, raise Qiu Yiyou, and never marry, and this person was Qiu Dai.

"Exactly, about Aunt Dai Wei, Bingzhi has one thing to remind Gongzi, although Aunt Dai is the sister of the Overseer, it stands to reason that she is an outsider to the Qiu family, but since she decided not to marry for the Qiu family for the rest of her life, the Overseer promised to leave her name on the Qiu family tree forever, so Aunt Dai Wei has actually been the mistress of the Overseer's Mansion all these years."

"Thank you Brother Yan for reminding me, the younger brother will grasp the proportions."

"This is a matter of Yan's responsibility. The Overseer's Mansion is still being expanded recently, so you can just walk around this front yard so that you don't get hurt by heavy objects. The Overseers are waiting for you today in the newly built western-style building, and you can come with me here. The two of them were about to go into the verandah, when they heard the laughter of a child behind them, and they looked the way they came......

Yan Bingzhi said with a smile: "It's time for the little young master of the Tong family to arrive." ”

Before the words fell, they saw a gust of "wind" blowing towards them, and a little boy of more than ten years old hid behind Bai Qiaoxuan at once.

Immediately followed by a sharp cry, "Tong Yuhao! You kid dare to do it! What kind of man is running when you're done! ”

Bai Qiaoxuan and Yan Bingzhi looked at each other, Yan Bingzhi suddenly reacted and pulled out the little boy who was hiding behind Bai Qiaoxuan.

"Tong Xiaoshao, are you doing something wrong to your sister again?"

Tong Yuhao made a "shhhh It's miserable for me to be caught by her. Tong Yuhao said and grimaced a tragic death.

Yan Bingzhi felt extremely helpless about this little master of the Tong family, who had been very naughty since he was a child. Fortunately, today is a family banquet, not a formal occasion, otherwise this young boy would have to be stripped of a layer of skin. Bai Qiaoxuan saw that the little boy in front of him was Tong Fengyi's son, and when he heard that he had damaged Tong Yuqing's dress, he couldn't help but think of the same naughty little sister in his family. Thinking that he and Tong Yuqing were really suffering from the same disease, he wanted to catch him and send him to Tong Yuqing, but it was not good to leave a bad impression on the little young master when they met for the first time, so he thought of a way to relieve the siege of their sister and brother.

Bai Qiaoxuan squatted down and made himself and Tong Yuhao almost taller, "You're Tong Yuhao, right?" My name is Bai Qiaoxuan......"

"You are Bai Qiaoxuan?" Tong Yuhao was obviously surprised and delighted when he heard Bai Qiaoxuan's name, and hurriedly grabbed his arm and swayed it left and right, begging: "Brother Qiao Xuan, can you take me to run quickly?" My sister is about to chase after me, and she won't hit me when she sees me with you. ”

Bai Qiaoxuan originally had this idea, but when he heard Tong Yuxuan say this, he picked him up and ran to the inner courtyard.

This scene made Yan Bingzhi stunned, and before he could react, he heard Bai Qiaoxuan say to him: "Brother Yan, come with me......" Yan Bingzhi hurriedly chased after him.

Bai Qiaoxuan asked Tong Yuxuan while running: "Xiaohao, how do you know that your sister won't clean you up when she sees you with me?" ”

Tong Yuhao smiled, hugged Bai Qiaoxuan's neck and said intimately: "Brother Qiao Xuan, you are the protagonist of tonight, my sister has always paid attention to etiquette, and she has never lost her manners in front of guests. She is not dressed neatly now, and she will definitely hide away when she meets you, so naturally she will not chase me. ”

Bai Qiaoxuan sighed: "Such a smart little head, why is it full of crooked brains? I know your sister will be embarrassed, why do you do this? ”

Tong Yuhao pursed his lips and snorted, and said, "Last time I was playing, I accidentally broke my father's official letter to my sister. My sister not only helped me keep it secret, but also told my father, causing me to be beaten. I just want to take advantage of this family banquet to make my sister ugly again. ”

Bai Qiaoxuan smiled and sighed, and ran out of the court corridor with Tong Yuhao. In front of him, he could already see the colorful new western-style building, so he put down Tong Yuhao on the spot and said to him: "Xiao Hao, Brother Qiao Xuan 'saved your life' today, right?" ”

Tong Yuhao nodded vigorously. Bai Qiaoxuan continued: "If you have kindness, you have to pay it back." Brother Qiao Xuan wants you to do one thing for me too. After a while, you go to Aunt Dai and ask her to borrow a dress that your sister can wear, and you can send it to your sister yourself. Your sister should now be in the east house where your sister used to live. ”

Facing Tong Yuhao's panicked eyes, Bai Qiaoxuan said again: "Just tell your sister that Brother Qiao Xuan officially visited the Overseer's Mansion for the first time today and prepared a gift for everyone, please be sure to accept it." Believe my brother, your sister will definitely not clean you up again. ”

Tong Yuhao did the letter suspiciously, and the result was as Bai Qiaoxuan expected, her sister's originally raised hand slowly fell when she heard him say this, and turned to the person who had just entered the door to give her clothes: "Thank you for your hard work, and I want you to go home and run." Let's put your clothes here first. As he spoke, he glared at Tong Yuhao, "Save this little ghost and bad things!" ”

Bai Qiaoxuan continued to walk towards the western-style building after dealing with Tong Yuhao's problem. After the long corridor just now, the scenery here is obviously Western-style. The marble-paved road is lined with bushes. It's autumn, and it's hard to tell what kind of flowers are grown, but a few unknown wildflowers are secretly blooming among the grass. Further on, a nine-curved pool comes into view, and in the center of the pool stands a statue of the ancient Greek god Apollo, which is exquisitely designed, and it can be seen that the intention is extreme.

The pool was only a few steps away from the main hall, Bai Qiaoxuan could already hear the conversation of everyone in the hall, he adjusted his breathing a little, and walked into the main hall......
