Chapter 07: The Scum Tang Xiu
After coming out of Pei Cai'er's yard, Tang Xiu walked around several nearby courtyards twice, since he had decided to settle down here and live well, there was no reason not to be familiar with the layout of his house.
The ancestral house of the Tang Mansion is not small, there are three courtyards in the front, middle and back, each courtyard has a number of sub-gardens, and there are more than a dozen rooms, and the whole mansion is more than enough for hundreds of people.
It seems that when this mansion was built, the ancestors of the Tang family must have hoped that the Tang family would prosper and have a hundred sons and grandchildren. It's just a pity that it backfired, three generations from Tang Xiu up, the Tang family is the only seedling, Tang Xiu's father Tang Su even married seven wives and concubines in a row, but except for the eldest lady who died due to Tang Xiu's dystocia, the rest of the six rooms have not even released a fart for ten years.
As for Tang Xiu's aunts, after Tang Su's death, seeing that the Tang family was defeated by Tang Xiu, let alone pointing to Tang Xiu for the elderly, I am afraid that they will not even be able to keep the private money they have accumulated over the years, so that they can clean up their own or remarry or find other livelihoods, which can be regarded as completely cutting off contact with the Tang family.
"The Tang family, it's really in decline."
Tang Xiu sighed softly, there is such a mansion empty, but there is no savings at home, and then look at the empty piece of this house, Tang Xiu has been wandering around for so long, the sky has already brightened, and he hasn't even seen a single person, it is cold and lifeless.
"Young Master! Master! ”
Tang Xiu was sighing alone, and he heard someone shouting not far away, and when he looked back, it was Tang Lu who trotted all the way over, and when he got closer, he panted and said: "Young master, it turns out that you are here, and it will be easy for the villain to find him." ”
"What's wrong with being in such a hurry?"
"No, it's nothing," Seeing Tang Lu looking at himself lightly, remembering the cruelty of the young master before, Tang Lu's body tightened, and he hurriedly replied: "That's it, I just woke up to see that you weren't there, I was afraid that something would happen to you, and I was a little anxious." ”
"Also, there is also the villain who fell asleep while on duty at night and made a big mistake, please punish the young master."
Tang Lu leaned over, his heart was full of worries, the master woke up, and wandered around the yard for most of the day, but he, the subordinate who was waiting for the night, didn't know at all, this was a big mistake, if it was dealt with according to the family rules, it would be punished.
Tang Xiu glanced down at Tang Lu and asked lightly, "You are the only one left on duty now?" ”
"Yes, young master." Tang Lu replied: "Since Tang Fu and Tang Shou left, no one else has made up for it, so it ......."
"Okay," Tang Xiu waved his hand to interrupt Tang Lu's words: "It's excusable, forget it this time." ”
"Huh?" Tang Lu was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect the young master to exempt him from responsibility so easily, remembering the scene last time Tang Shou was beaten to the ground because of snooze, Tang Lu couldn't help but be very happy in his heart, fortunately the young master had amnesia, the amnesia was good, the amnesia was wonderful, it would be good if the young master had been so amnesia.
At this time, Tang Lu no longer doubted whether Tang Xiu was pretending to have amnesia, and bowed to Tang Xiu with great gratitude: "Thank you, young master!" Thank you, young master! ”
Seeing Tang Lu's behavior of being so grateful to Dade, it is not difficult to guess how cruel and unkind this little young master of the Tang Mansion was before, Tang Xiu shook his head slightly, and said softly to Tang Lu: "Didn't you say that there is still a grandmother lady in the mansion?" You bring me to meet me. ”
"Huh?" Tang Lu was stunned again: "Go to Mrs. Tai?" ”
Didn't the young master always dislike Mrs. Tai for being old and not dying before? Why did you think of visiting Mrs. Tai now? If Tang Lu remembers well, since the old man's death, without the master's restraint and discipline, Young Master Tang Xiu has never been to Mrs. Tai's courtyard again, and it has been more than half a year.
Tang Xiu's eyebrows raised: "What, is there any problem?" ”
"No... No, it's just that the young master has rarely been to Mrs. Tai before, and he was a little surprised for a while. Thinking of the fact that the young master had lost his memory, Tang Lu suddenly explained, "The villain will take the young master over." ”
"Hmm." Tang Xiu nodded lightly, and in his heart he labeled the owner of this body as unfilial.
Tang Lu led the way in front, and without taking two steps, Tang Xiu found that there was something wrong with the place where Tang Lu was going, and he actually went directly to the front yard.
"Tang Lu, does Mrs. Tai live in the front yard?"
After passing the gate of the middle courtyard, Tang Xiu finally couldn't help but ask. Even if Tang Xiu no longer understood the rules of the ancients, he knew that in a mansion as big as their Tang Mansion, the front yard was a place to entertain guests, and it was still an entourage of guests such as horsemen who were not very important.
As Tang Xiu's grandmother, as the highest and most respected ancestor-level figure in the Tang family, how could Mrs. Tai be placed here?
Tang Lu nodded and responded: "It was the young master's previous order, saying that Mrs. Tai is old and has difficulty moving, when you want to go out and walk around, it is more convenient to live in the front yard and go out." ”
"Huh? Mobility issues? Still going out for a walk? It's a shameless and strange reason. Although he didn't do the things himself, and he didn't say the words himself, Tang Xiu still felt a little ashamed.
People can be shameless, they can be ruined, and they can even be unscrupulous, but they can't be unfilial.
Tang Xiu, I despise you.
Tang Xiu suddenly felt a little afraid to go to see his grandmother, Mrs. Tai, his face was not as thick as that Young Master Tang Xiu, he still wanted face, he would feel panicked.
Seeing Tang Lu walking vigorously to the most remote corner of the front yard, Tang Xiu's face became more and more ugly, so he asked Tang Lu softly, "Where did Mrs. Tai live?" ”
"Huh?" I didn't understand why Tang Xiu asked this, Tang Lu still replied obediently: "This is where the young master lives now." ”
"It has always been the bedding of the head of the family, it turned out that the old man lived there with the old man when he was alive, and then the old man passed away, and the old man became the head of the house, and the old lady once wanted to give up the old man but did not agree, until the young master you ......"
Halfway through the words, Tang Lu didn't dare to say any more, and if he continued to talk, it would be a bit of a master to arrange it.
"Hmm." Knowing the cause and effect of the matter, Tang Xiu's little face was even more embarrassed, looking up at the small courtyard in the corner in front of him, Zheng Sheng instructed Tang Lu: "After a while, you go to Steward Tang to inform him, and say that it is my intention, and let Mrs. Tai move back to the original house." As for my residence, well, just tidy up the nearby yard, and I'll live there from now on. ”
"Eh, the villain wrote it down!" After being stunned, Tang Lu hurriedly responded with joy.
For Mrs. Tai's placement, the whole house has long been complaining, after all, Mrs. Tai treats her subordinates very well on weekdays, and the subordinates also respect Mrs. Tai, and most of them are not very patient with Mrs. Tai's current situation.
It's just that because of Young Master Tang Xiu's brutal aftermath, everyone didn't dare to say anything. Now it is rare for Young Master Tang Xiu to know that he has lost his way, and Tang Lu can't help but rejoice in his heart.
Therefore, after leading Tang Xiu to the courtyard gate where Mrs. Tai was and greeting the maid who was waiting inside, Tang Lu trotted all the way to report the good news to Tang Da's housekeeper.
"Less... Few... Young master, Mrs. Tai is dining in the back room, please come over. ”
The little girl who came out of the back room had a pale face after seeing Tang Xiu, her whole body was trembling slightly, and she had a slight tendency to stutter when she spoke.
Alas, it seems that Tang Xiu's bad image of a loser is really deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, look at the little girl who scares people? Possessed by such a scum, how much sin did I Tang Ziyou have to do in my last life?
With a long sigh, Tang Xiu straightened his clothes and walked into Mrs. Tai's room.
