Chapter 36: Exposure

"Steward Cao, what's wrong?" When he said this, Tang Chu was picking up a flower and sniffing it, the fragrance was fragrant, and he looked like he was enjoying it.

Cao Yong hesitated for a moment, and said with an unnatural face, "It's just a trivial matter, you don't need to worry about it, just come when you go down." ”

Seeing that Steward Cao was anxiously leaving, Tang Chu became interested instead, "Steward Cao, since this is the case, I will also go with you, Miss Ben also wants to see how Steward Cao handles things in the village on weekdays, and my father always praises you for acting steadily, and it just so happens that I also learn." ”

"This ......" Cao Yong smiled bitterly, "Miss still don't go, it's just a subordinate who is making trouble, I'm afraid of polluting the eyes of nobles." ”

"It's okay, Miss Ben will take over all of her father's belongings in the future, and naturally she will have to do a lot of things herself.

Seeing that Tang Chu was unmoved and insisted on going, Cao Yong had no choice but to take them there.

When they arrived at the place where there was trouble, they saw a group of people surrounding a young man, he was in rags, his face was yellow and thin, as if he had not eaten enough for a long time.

Zou Shiyan was touched for a while, he remembered how he once looked down, at that time, he and his younger brother Zou Shichu often couldn't eat enough at the Zou family's uncle and aunt.

Moved, Zou Shiyan also stopped a few people from beating him, "Don't fight yet, Miss is here." ”

Zou Shiyan put Tang Chu out, and everyone had some scruples, and finally dispersed and made a way.

"What's going on?" Tang Chu asked.

"Miss Hui, this kid's father is a flower farmer here, terminally ill, and he hasn't come to work in the village for several months, but he came to Steward Cao to ask for money, and he still wants money if he doesn't work, how can there be such a reason in the world?"

A servant said angrily, and it was obvious that what he said was directed towards Steward Cao.

At this time, Steward Cao also looked wronged, "Alas, Miss doesn't know, this kid's name is Zhang Yang, his father Zhang Danian works in our village, but a few months ago he contracted a vicious disease, and the villain lent him some money, who knew that it was actually relying on me"

Hearing Cao Yong's words, the eyes of the group looking at Zhang Yang changed.

Tang Chu didn't listen to Steward Cao's words, she stepped forward, not caring that the dust on the young man's body would stain her dress.

"Tell me, what the hell is going on?" The girl's voice was pleasant, Zhang Yang raised her head, and when she saw Tang Chu dressed in a rich and noble outfit, she knew that this was the master's house.

He mustered up the courage to reveal all the grievances accumulated in his heart, "Miss Master, my father is Zhang Danian, a flower farmer in this village, he has superb skills, and he is very valued by Cao Yong on weekdays. ”

At this point, there was no need for him to call the other party Cao Guanshi, and the young man continued, "Originally, my father was only in charge of the affairs in the garden, but who knew that one day I heard Cao Yong and his subordinates discussing the matter of transporting flowers to Yunzhou. ”

The young man's hateful gaze shot at Cao Yong, and he gritted his teeth and said, "They found out about my father and wanted to pay hush money, but my father was unwilling to deceive the main family and do such a thing that would lose his conscience, so he was dismissed by Cao Yong." ”

"Who would have thought that on the first night of my father's home, he was covered with a sack and his legs were disabled, and since then my father has been bedridden and the family has no money."

"And then?" Tang Chu then asked.

"Later, I came to Cao Yong, and he confessed, but also threatened me that if I told him about selling flowers without permission, my family would definitely die."

The young man struggled to support his body, but left tears of remorse, "Our family is lonely, where dare to speak out, I took Cao Yong a few taels of silver and left, but who knows, this money is not enough for my father's treatment, I came to him again, and this scene happened today." ”

At this point, everyone also heard clearly, Tang Chu turned his head to look at Steward Cao, and said with an angry face, "Steward Cao, how do you explain?" ”

Cao Yong's face was pale, and his eyes flickered, but after all, he was cunning and cunning, so he quickly stabilized his mentality, and he also looked at the young man on the ground angrily.

"You kid, I just saw that your father had worked hard in the village for so many years, and he took care of your family a little more in the past, and now he dares to arrange me for money, which is really an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf."

"You're lying, miss, if you don't believe it, you can send someone to count the accounts, the flowers planted in the garden must be very different from those sent to the East and West Street Flowers and Plants Store in the accounts!"

Zhang Yang is not to be outdone, things have developed to this moment, he has a bad life, even if he dies, he will drag Cao Yong, the villain, to hell.

Steward Cao was furious and kicked Zhang Yang in the air, but was blocked by Zou Shiyan in the middle.

Tang Chu said slowly, "This matter is very simple, according to what this kid said, an investigation will come to light, and when he pours down, he can also return Steward Cao's innocence, how about it?" ”

Although it was an inquiry, but the tone was unquestionable, Cao Yong was shocked, this young lady seemed to really want to check him, since this was the case, then don't blame yourself for being ruthless!

Cao Yong showed a sad look, "Miss, Master Tang trusted me to hand over Zhuangzi to me to deal with, you are now listening to this kid's nonsense to check the flowers, isn't this in front of everyone to give me a certain face, forgive me really can't obey." ”

"We all believe in Cao Guanshi, and Cao Guan is a good person, but now he has been tarnished and innocent."

"Yes, yes, the young lady of the main family doesn't understand farming, if there is no Cao Guan, I'm afraid her village won't be able to open!"

The words of Cao Yong in the crowd and all kinds of cool words filled Tang Chu's ears.

Shuangxi couldn't help but be a little anxious, "Miss, what should I do?" She grabbed Tang Chu's arm.

Tang Chuhui held her hand and comforted, "Don't be afraid. ”

Zou Shiyan watched from the sidelines, obviously she was only sixteen years old, but now she had to become someone else's dependence.

Tang Chu blew the whistle, and the more than 20 people he brought over heard the code and quickly gathered here from the wing.

"What do you mean, miss?" Steward Cao asked.

"It's nothing, it's just that there are so many people to check it!" Tang Chu replied fearlessly.

"It seems that you have to force Cao Mou away, since this is the case, you should ask for another master!"

Cao Yong glanced at the crowd, and immediately someone said indignantly, "Steward Cao can't leave, we only listen to Steward Cao, where do you go?" ”

"Yes, we will be where Steward Cao is." The rest of the crowd shouted.

Although facing a rabble, there were more than 100 people on the other side facing more than 20 of them, which was really at a disadvantage.

Zou Shiyan clenched the dagger in his hand, this was what Tang Chu asked him to carry with him before leaving, there were many people in the village, just in case, he had been carrying it closely.

Cao Yong smiled with satisfaction, "Miss, these flower farmers and workers are all carefully selected by Cao, and for a while, you can't find a better craftsman in Suizhou." ”
