She is brave, kind, assertive and intelligent.

It's the most business-like of all the girls I know.

After learning that he was calculated by the second master of the Zhang family, he calculated what he planned, and in order to introduce Tang Mian into the bureau, he also asked Lord Xu to come forward, and he did so many things just to make her the next president of the Chamber of Commerce.

"Housekeeper, are you going to inquire where Tang Mian is?"

"Master, you are not in good health, you can't sit in the carriage, what can you say to the old slave, the old slave will personally sue Miss Tang." The butler sensed what he meant, and hurriedly admonished.

Gu Congzhi waved his hand, "Butler, you have been with me for so long, you should know why I want to go out!" ”

"No. The old slave asked someone to ask. ”

When it was getting dark, Tang Mian asked people to pack up their things and sit in the yard to watch the stars.

Xiao Cui brought her a cloak, "Master, why do you like to look at the stars?" Is it really that pretty? ”

"Xiaocui, you are still young, you don't know the fun of looking at the stars, when you reach my age, you will know why the stars are beautiful." Tang Mian said lightly, tears flashing in his eyes.

In her previous life, she got up early every day and was greedy for darkness, just to earn more silver, so that the Shen family could pay off the debts as soon as possible, at that time, when she didn't get up on the fourth watch every day, it was still dark, and the stars in the sky were sprinkled all over the sky, inexplicably giving her countless motivations.

Later, when she didn't have to go out so early, her relationship with Shen Guangbo gradually deteriorated, and then he imprisoned her in a dungeon in order to empty her power, which was dark, only a window on the east wall of the cell door.

A small window has accompanied her for countless days and nights......

"Master, President Gu is here." When Tang Mian was still wandering, the shrimp entered the house to report.

No way! She hid in the countryside so far away, this President Gu is really persistent.

Now, it's not good to keep them in.

But if he wants them to come in, he will definitely persuade her.

"Mian! Let's see who's coming. Hearing her mother's voice, Tang Mian looked up and saw a familiar figure, and secretly said in her heart.

Mother is really! I didn't even ask her what she meant, so I brought someone in.

"Boss Tang doesn't seem to be able to take care of me?" At this time, there were lanterns hanging in the courtyard, President Gu was old, and his eyes were good, he didn't give Tang Mian a chance to think about it, he walked in front of her in three steps and two steps, and proposed to talk to her alone.

Tang Mian saw that his old man was so persistent, and he was still a little entangled in his heart.

Seeing this, Bai Yunniang, who didn't know the truth, directly urged her to hurry into the house.

"President Gu, since you are old, then I will tell the truth! I really don't want to be the president, and I don't want to help Ning Yuan's restaurant come back to life, I, I'm really an ordinary person, and I can't afford the big burden of the Imperial City Chamber of Commerce. She didn't continue to say after she finished speaking, after all, she didn't want to look at the president when she released cruel words, so she could only keep her head low.

"Boss Tang, the old man didn't come to force you this time, the old man also figured it out, the twisted melon is not sweet, rather than making you reluctant to take the position, it is better to choose another person."

"Really? President Gu, do you mean there are already other candidates? Who the hell is it? Can you tell me soon? If there's anything I can do to help, I'll help! ”

Seeing that Tang Mian was so emotional, he was obviously deceived.

Gu Congzhi threw out two words unhurriedly and slowly: "Ning Yuan!" ”

"What! Why him! As for his kind of person who walks crookedly and heresy, there is a problem with his character, and if you support him to take the position, then I will not participate in the affairs between you! ”

Based on Gu Congzhi's guess, Tang Mian was extremely emotional, and directly admitted that he wanted to pick and choose.

He immediately stood up, "Boss Tang, the old man can't help it, looking at the entire imperial city, there are few people whose financial resources are equal to that of the second master Zhang's family, they can't take care of their family's business on weekdays, and they won't tear their faces with the Zhang family for the president's vacant position, and the rest have a few suitable candidates, but they are all thin-skinned people with small family businesses, who among them wants to sit on the chairman's position, and if they don't get it right, they will become puppets and be controlled by the Zhang family." ”

Analyzing this, he paused for half a second and continued: "The most suitable candidate now is you Tang Mian, but unfortunately you don't want to be, that old man can only retreat to the second best thing for the long-term development of the Chamber of Commerce in the future, and choose Ning Yuan!" ”

"But—" Before Tang Mian could finish speaking, Gu Congzhi interrupted her.

"Miss Tang, it's nothing. The old man is here to inform you today, after all, you and Ning Yuan had such a big holiday before, after he sits on the position of president of the Chamber of Commerce, Bao Qi will give you a stumbling block, and if you don't get it, it will also affect the business of Ling Chen's bosses. Ay! But that's not something I should worry about. The old man said here and took his leave! After he said these words quietly in front of Tang Mian, he turned his head and left.

After getting into the carriage again, the butler covered him with a quilt, "Master, it's cold at night, you cover it." ”

"Old Hu, you've worked hard all these years, and you've always been busy taking care of me, but soon we can go back to our hometown to live a few days of peace."

"Master, do you think Tang Mian can be fooled?" Hu Lao asked with some anxiety.

Gu Congzhi put down the carriage curtain, "I've said everything that should be said, Tang Mian is such a smart girl, she should be able to distinguish the pros and cons." ”

If she still doesn't want to be the president, then Ning Yuan is good, he is old, he received a letter from his youngest son a few days ago, saying that his daughter-in-law gave birth to a little granddaughter for him, and he can also participate in his granddaughter's 100-day banquet after setting off to Jiangcheng ten days later.

If it weren't for the position of the president of the Imperial City Chamber of Commerce, he would have gone to Jiangcheng to reunite with the children.

"Master, don't worry! Brother Lin Zi's people follow President Gu and them, and they should be fine. Qiao Sheng entered the room and noticed that Tang Mian's mood was still wrong, thinking that she was worried about President Gu and them, so he hurriedly opened his mouth and said.

"Hey! Qiao Sheng, you help me get some hot water to come in, I want to soak my feet. ”

Tang Mianchou was not worried about it, but because of President Gu's words.

His old man obviously knew that she didn't want to participate in the chamber of commerce election, whether it was Zhang Er or Ning Yuan, they were not suitable candidates.

He must have expected that she would not defect to help Second Master Zhang, so he directly mentioned to him that he wanted to help Ning Yuan take the position.

Even if Ning Yuan, a person who has no virtue, really sits in the position of president, then they can still live!

No, no!

You have to find the right person.

"Mian? Is there something going on in the store? Why are you in such a hurry to go back to the Imperial City? Before getting into the carriage, Bai Yunniang and the others stuffed a few buns.

Yesterday Mian asked people to pickle a lot of yellow eels and loaches, enough for them to eat for several days.

They are gone, leaving so much when they can finish eating.

"Mother, there is a little thing in the store, but it doesn't matter, you can eat it in a day or two, those yellow eels and loaches will be sent to the store in a while, you and Xiaobao don't like it very much, anyway, Xiaocui is with you, you can rest assured that you will stay for a few more days." I'll be back when I'm done. With that, he told the coachman to hurry away in his carriage.
