Chapter 60: Drinking and Spitting the Truth

If you give up a little profit today, someone will find out your bottom line tomorrow, choke your throat and make you retreat again and again, and in the long run, there will never be a foothold in the business field, but others will lead you, and you will have to go where you go.

Once a businessman loses his ideas, courage, and prestige, he is not far from destruction.

Tang Chu's thoughts had drifted away, and she didn't notice that Zeng Xinlang quietly took out a wooden box from his sleeve.

"Cousin, what do you think this is?" Zeng Xinlang's clear voice brought back Tang Chu's imagination.

Tang Chu looked down and saw that there was a hosta in the wooden box, and she was a little at a loss.

"Cousin, what is this?" Tang Chu didn't dare to continue to say the complete words, she didn't dare to test, if her cousin really had that kind of thought, how could she refuse?

The corners of Zeng Xinlang's lips rose, and his handsome face looked more elegant in the sun.

"Cousin, don't think about it, giving you jewelry in private is going to be said to be given to you privately, how can my cousin bear to let you bear the infamy!"

"What does my cousin mean?" Tang Chu was a little relieved, but he was still at a loss.

Zeng Xinlang took out the crystal clear hosta and gently inserted it into Tang Chu's hair, "This was given to me by my aunt when I was a child, and now it has been returned to its original owner." ”

"This is my mother's hairpin?" Tang Chu stroked the hosta on the bun, which was smooth and delicate, and it was undoubtedly a masterpiece.

"Cousin, since this is given to you by your mother, why do you want to return it to me?" Tang Chu was still puzzled.

Zeng Xinlang put his fist in front of his mouth and coughed lightly, and said slowly, "Cousin just thinks it looks better with you wearing it, cousin goes south and north, wouldn't it be a pity if you lose it!" ”

Tang Chu nodded, she felt that what her cousin said was reasonable, so she accepted it happily.

Zeng Xinlang was also relieved to see that Tang Chu was not asking.

"Aaron, take this for you." The beautiful woman said to the young man with a green hairpin.

"What a beautiful hairpin, auntie, I haven't seen such a crystal clear hosta in my mother's place, it must be very valuable."

The beautiful woman hugged him on her lap and said gently, "This jade is extremely rare, my aunt has made several kinds of jewelry, and the rest is in your cousin's, this hosta is reserved for you, and when you grow up, you can give it to your beloved!" ”

The joke of the beautiful woman made the boy blush, although he was young, but also precocious, and knew a lot of things under the influence of his ears and eyes, at this time he heard his aunt say this, he was a little shy, but he still took the hairpin, put it in a wooden box and carefully kept it.

The scene of memories was fleeting, Zeng Xinlang looked at Tang Chu's flower-like smile after getting the hosta, and couldn't help but smile infected.

Shuangxi and Zeng Wenzheng in the distance stared at the two of them, and both of them were anxious after seeing Zeng Xinlang send the hairpin, but hearing Zeng Xinlang say that it was given by Mrs. Tang also dispelled their doubts.

Those of them who are small maids, on weekdays, are most afraid that the master's reputation will be humiliated, and if something happens, the masters may be punished for copying books, punished for kneeling in the ancestral hall, etc., and it is they who are really offended.

Fortunately, the two masters did not talk any more, and at this time the housekeeper came to call them for dinner, and heard that Tang Fuchang also prepared good wine, just to entertain this nephew who had not seen him for many years.

"Cousin, the kitchen is ready, let's go to the back hall for dinner." Tang Chu invited.

"Okay, cousin, please." Zeng Xinlang took a step back, showing his gentlemanly demeanor.

Tang Chu led the way, and Shuangxi and Zeng Wen also followed.

At the banquet in the evening, Tang Fuchang did not embarrass Zeng Xinlang, but Zeng Xinlang returned Tang Fuchang one by one.

Tang Chu watched the two of them drunk on the side, and couldn't help but persuade both of them not to drink anymore, but she was soft-spoken, Tang Fuchang and Zeng Xinlang were both on the rise, and what she said went in and out of the left ear, and no one listened carefully at all.

Tang Chu walked out of the house angrily, but seeing the drunkenness of the old and the young, she couldn't bear it, she ordered the kitchen to boil two bowls of decanting soup to avoid a headache when they woke up tomorrow morning.

Zeng Wen quietly approached at this time, "Miss Biao, my young master said before dinner that as soon as he gets drunk, he will be sent back to Zeng's house." ”

"Oh? Why is that? Tang Mansion also has a cousin's residence, and this month is dark and windy, and he still tosses his cousin to do something. Tang Chu said but couldn't help but show a trace of anger.

Zeng Wenwei explained resignedly, "That's what the young master ordered, and the little one didn't want to toss, but if he didn't do what the young master ordered, when he woke up tomorrow, the little one would suffer!" ”

The little servant's words were pleading, and Tang Chu didn't want to embarrass him when he saw him like this.

"Wait a minute, after the two of them can't drink at all, I'll pour them a bowl of sobering soup, and I'll let the family's carriage take your master and servant back later."

Tang Chu settled everything in one sentence, and Zeng Wen felt that even this courage was worthy of the young master's love.

Tang Chu didn't know what this little guy was thinking in his head at this time, if he knew, he was afraid that he would scoff at him, she Tang Chu never lived for who she deserved.

She changed for herself, she became stronger for herself, and only if she moved forward unswervingly, could she protect the people she loved and those she loved.

The time of half a pillar of incense passed, and the two of them were still drinking, but Tang Chu didn't want to stay longer, she went back to her room first, let people look at the old man and the young master, and called her over as soon as the two lost consciousness.

After Tang Chu left, Zeng Xinlang opened his mouth that was almost knotted, raised his wine glass and said to Tang Fuchang, "Uncle, what kind of Ruyi Langjun are you going to find for your cousin in the future?" ”

"Hehe, naturally he is a man who is both civil and military, has both ability and political integrity, and protects Chu'er wholeheartedly." Tang Fuchang's eyes couldn't be opened, but he still answered Zeng Xinlang vaguely.

"Then uncle, do you think I can do it?" Zeng Xinlang stood firm and stopped shaking.

"You?"

“…… No way! Tang Fuchang didn't think much about it, and immediately denied Zeng Xinlang.

"Why, why can't I?" Zeng Xinlang said with drunken eyes.

"You have a lot of people in your family, many brothers, your mother didn't like Chu'er before, why should I marry her into your family? Will my daughter, whom I regard as a treasure, suffer in your house? Tang Fuchang's questioning voice was sonorous and powerful, and it pierced Zeng Xinlang's heart word by word.

"It's not like this, I will take good care of Chu'er and won't let her be hurt!" Zeng Xinlang hurriedly explained.

"Forget it, you don't even understand the in your own family, and you still want to implicate Chu'er, it's beautiful!" When it came to Tang Chu's matter, Tang Fuchang became more and more sober, and his words became clearer and clearer.

Zeng Xinlang lowered his head, as if he was annoyed.
