Chapter 13: Muddy Waters

Second Master Xu stood still in the end.

When he got home, he was still a little depressed, and he bumped into his eldest brother Xu Zhaohai, who was about to go out.

Xu Zhaohai is very busy now, and he can't help but be furious when he is hit by this lost brother, especially the second master Xu still has a straight face as if someone owes him a few hundred taels of silver, which makes Xu Zhaohai frown: "What's the matter with you?!" The second master of a dignified Guogong Mansion is not as good as a man from an ordinary family when he stands out, where is there a little bit of the appearance of a Guogong Mansion! ”

Second Master Xu looked at him and stopped talking, but in the end he didn't open his mouth.

Xu Zhaohai didn't bother to care about him, he heard that something had happened to the Zhu family, and he was about to rush to ask about the situation.

The ledger is too expensive and crucial, and if it falls into the hands of someone else, it will be another problem.

Now my father's situation in Yunnan is becoming more and more embarrassing, and the court has desperately ordered them to put down those thieves earlier.

But the problem is that if they really put down the rebels now, then at that time, the bad things that Pingnanhou and his gang forced against the good people, fanned the flames, blackmailed the imperial court, and tried to support the army and respect themselves.

But the British government has a handle in the hands of others, that is, the account book.

If something happens to the Pingnanhou Mansion, the British Mansion will definitely have no good fruit to eat.

Therefore, the British princess, who was good at fighting, delayed this matter again and again, seeing that the army had already arrived in Yunnan, but after so long, he had made no achievements.

Now the key is on the account book, if this account book is given to them by the British government, then the situation of the British government will suddenly become clear, there will be no constraints at that time, if you want not to give the Lu family face, you don't have to give it, and directly take the military merits, what else can the Lu family do?

If it really comes to that point, the Lu family still has to count on these former allies to pull it along, do they dare to really fall out with the British government?

So, it's really sad.

He frowned and took a deep breath, hurriedly walked past the second master Xu, and didn't even bother to say a word to the second master, anyway, it was useless to say it, this younger brother has been transparent at home since he was a child.

Second Master Xu pursed his lips and went back to his yard, still a little restless, and struggled to stand up several times but sat back again.

Second Mrs. Xu looked a little dazed, I don't know why he is so embarrassed, their relationship between husband and wife has always been very good, seeing that the second master is really sitting on pins and needles, she asked him softly What is wrong.

In front of his wife, Second Master Xu was much more comfortable, and he finally didn't hide it from his wife, and told Second Mrs. Xu about going to see Zhu Yuan: "People who have always called me brother and sister these days...... It turned out to be Miss Zhu's subordinates, Miss Zhu is really good, she is so young, but those people below are all loyal to her, and she obeys her orders, and a restaurant as big as her name is also impressive......."

He was a little incoherent.

Second Mrs. Xu understood her husband very well, walked over and sat down and held her husband's hand, hung her head and said very gently, "So you are actually tempted by this proposal?" ”

There were no outsiders in the room, Second Master Xu relaxed, and sighed with straight eyes: "I don't know, I don't know if it's right or wrong to do this, but what Miss Zhu said makes me really unable to sit still, what she said is that if I don't gain a firm foothold at home, the eldest brother and the third brother will look down on me, I am not favored by my parents, if we really go out of the house, we will get the least certainty....... But why? ”

All the grievances of the second master Xu for so many years have emerged: "I am also my mother's biological child, not a concubine, why is there such a big gap between me and my brother and brother?" There is also Xiao San'er, I really feel bad in my heart, a good child, even if she doesn't marry any Pingnan Houfu in the future, she will have a good way to go, I will naturally do my best to choose a good family for her, but the Lu family ...... Lu Guangping, that bastard! He killed Xiao San'er! ”

Speaking of this, Second Mrs. Xu's tears couldn't stop falling.

Yes, this matter is a heart disease in the second room.

Every time Second Mrs. Xu thinks of her daughter's tragic situation, she has to grit her teeth at the Lu family.

Not only the Lu family, but also the attitude of the parents-in-law and the family is also chilling.

But is Xiao San'er really only worth such a little thing!?

She sighed slowly: "If it were me, it would be too difficult for us, master, we don't care, you are used to being wronged, and I am also a person who can be wronged." But I'm afraid that if this happens in the future....... How many children do we have to fill in? ”

One sentence made Second Master Xu wake up suddenly.

He saw his wife's attitude.

Yes, his father doesn't love his mother or love him in this life, and he doesn't have much interest, the only thing he is closest to is his wife and children, if one day even his wife is separated from him......

He had nothing to hesitate about.

Besides, people always have to pay for their actions.

He sorted out his emotions and rushed into Mrs. Xu's yard.

He rarely went to Mrs. Xu's yard, even if it was morning and dusk, Mrs. Xu also exempted him, he really didn't want to see him, this time, the girls below were a little stunned, and they didn't react for a while.

Even when Mrs. Xu heard that he was coming, she frowned and didn't know what she was thinking, so she took a sip of tea and nodded, and asked someone to call him in.

She's busy right now.

But the mood is still good.

After all, everything that should be done has been done, and now Chu Tingchuan's situation is really a dilemma.

Children who are disobedient should be taught a little lesson, so that they will know how many pounds and taels they have, and they can see their own identity more clearly.

Where are you now, you dare to float up, thinking that you are really going to step on that seat in the future, no one can look down on it, just eat some lessons to know, even Emperor Jiaping himself, there are many powerless people who want to compromise, and there is still a last resort in that seat, not to mention that he has only been crowned a prince?

This time, I finally suffered.

was also in a good mood, so Mrs. Xu looked at her son who came in a little bit this time, let him sit up, and asked him, "What's the matter?" ”

She later found out that her son was not a fool or a stammer, but at that time, the second master was already sensible, and she simply didn't bother to mend the relationship, anyway, giving birth to him was already a great kindness, what else do you want?

She has always been so cold to the second master.
