"Miss Xia, this is Uncle Mo." Shao Yi introduced Mo Hong to Xia Yanqing, but did not elaborate on Mo Hong's identity.

This made Xia Zitang clearly feel that Shao Yi had mentioned Mo Hong to Xia Yanqing more than once, and this kind of mention would only happen when chatting.

But when did this happen, he didn't know so much?

I saw Shao Yi turn to Mo Hong again and said, "Uncle Mo, this is Miss Xia." ”

Xia Zitang gritted his teeth, he could see that this kid was not talking to Mo Hong about his little sister.

Xia Yanqing had already straightened his posture, but he was still startled by the character introduced by Shao Yi.

Mo Hong, this is the elite of the palace guards, although he is the chief butler of the Shao family, he is not a slave. In the Shao family, it is very powerful.

She glanced at Shao Yi quickly, and secretly complained that this guy didn't say hello to herself earlier, so he brought such a heavyweight over, which caused her to be surprised again and again.

"The little girl Xia Yanqing has seen Uncle Mo." Xia Yanqing gave Mo Hong a very standard salute, and he couldn't see the broken thoughts in his heart at all, calm and calm, as if he hadn't treated visitors casually at all just now, let alone seen that she had covered up her casualness with a clumsy excuse.

Mo Hong had already turned his body sideways, his attitude was modest, and he bowed and saluted: "Villain Mo Hong, I have seen Miss Xia." ”

His low-eyebrow and bowed appearance didn't seem to pay attention to the female owner of Qingyun Zhai.

But who made him a palace guard, who did their business, and never directly checked the rules of people. It is often a casual glance that can take in all the people and things that should be seen.

It's the same when he looks at Xia Yanqing, from the few changes in his expression when he enters the door and sees this woman, to the dignified demeanor he saw just now, as if being demure and dignified is her essence, as if she is like this all the time.

After only one face-to-face, Mo Hong had the most preliminary understanding of the Xia family's daughter: this kind of toughness that ignores other people's eyes and can take care of herself, can be, much stronger than her own housewife.

Shao Yi looked satisfied from the side, okay, the two of them have a tacit understanding.

"I take the liberty of disturbing Miss Xia, I really have something to discuss, can we sit down and talk first?" Shao Yi said.

Xia Zitang hurriedly answered: "It's not early, let's not talk about these false courtesies, and sit down." ”

While talking, he asked the two of them to the chair on the side, "Cheng'an sit, let Uncle Mo also sit down and talk." ”

Xia Yanqing lagged behind, and instructed Xinrong Xinxiu to make tea and bring snacks and fruits up.

The four of them sat down separately, the snacks were ready-made, and Xinxiu had already come up with a tray and put two plates on each of the small tables at hand for the four of them.

Xinrong sorted out the tea set in the compartment next to him and re-brewed tea for the four of them.

After sitting down, Xia Zitang was the first to speak, and he said to Xia Yanqing: "I just heard Cheng'an outside the door that he went to the household department and the ministry of industry today, and the paperwork is normal. But neither of these places gave any promises, and the situation of the transportation of black gold stone did not seem to improve. ”

As he spoke, he confirmed to Shao Yi: "That's the case, right?" ”

Speaking of this, Shao Yi was angry again, and first snorted heavily, and then said: "These two officials just went through the formalities according to the emperor's instructions, and they don't plan to do anything else." Our future mining and transportation will be no different from before, and the yamen and the imperial court will not help along the road. ”

"That's right." Xia Yanqing's tone was as usual, without any surprise or anger, which made Mo Hong know her better.

Xia Yanqing continued: "After Shao Gongzi left yesterday, I asked my father about Shao Gongzi's intentions, and my father expected that this was also the case. ”

Shao Yi was stunned, his father-in-law, who was very close to him yesterday, didn't tell him this. Is it to avoid this difficult problem and not want to discuss more?

His heart was full of doubts, but he didn't take it too seriously, but asked: "Uncle still has a foresight and has expected it early." It's just that if this situation is in place, I don't know if my uncle has a solution? ”

Xia Yanqing shook his head and said, "Father said that we have to solve this matter ourselves." My father also reminded that if the black gold stone we sent back to the capital was not enough to supply the Ministry of Industry and the glass pond kiln, I was afraid that someone would interfere and take over the mining matter. ”

Shao Yi knew it in his heart, it seemed that he guessed correctly, his father-in-law didn't mention it to him, and he really didn't plan to interfere too much in this matter, and they had to figure out their own way.

Mo Hong picked up the tea cup that he had just put down, and lowered his head to drink tea. In his heart, he estimated that this Lord Xia was really as he showed, and he would not take advantage of his position to help his daughter's business. Therefore, he only told his daughter, but did not explain it to his uncle. As a result, his uncle was not mentally prepared, and he was very annoyed in the process of handling the paperwork.

By the way, Mo Hong also glanced at Xia Zitang, and saw that the elder brother of the Xia family had no fluctuations on his face, but the flickering eyes just now showed that he didn't know what Xia Ke said.

It seems that Lord Xia, who is now hot in the court, is quite different from his daughter.

Xia Zitang really didn't know that Xia Yanqing had specifically asked Xia Ke what happened to Shao Yi.

But seeing that Shao Yi came to the kiln today with Mo Hong, he almost guessed Shao Yi's plan, "Cheng'an and Uncle Mo came together, but they already have a plan?" ”

Shao Yi nodded, "Since the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households do not plan to contribute, the safety of the mining area and transportation can only be handled by ourselves." I mean, there are still some guards in my house, and some more sturdy young men and skilled warriors. During our mining period, Uncle Mo took these people to take care of the mining area, and also served as a guard on the transportation route. ”

Xia Yanqing looked at Mo Hong and saw that his expression remained unchanged, it was obvious that Shao Yi had told Mo Hong about his plan, and Mo Hong did not refuse.

"Everyone has been sent out, Shao Gongzi Grange Mansion, and Aunt Shao, don't you need to be taken care of?" Xia Yanqing asked softly, but he was moved in his heart.

Shao Yi is nominally another owner of Qingyunzhai. However, he rarely uses the part of the dividends that belong to him. For more than two years, he only took a small part of the few semicolons that he had promised to Zhan Qi.

The income of Dongxi Coal Mine has not been mentioned until now. To put it bluntly, Shao Yi is in such a hurry to get angry in order to satisfy her, a person with an eye for money.

In such a difficult day after Prince Xiang's death, the Shao family came over safely, if it was because of making money, what happened to the Shao family or Shao's mother, Xia Yanqing felt that he couldn't explain it to anyone.

Shao Yi heard Xia Yanqing ask this question and looked at Mo Hong.

Mo Hong had no choice but to express his position and said: "There are still a few people in the Shao family, and the guards have been properly arranged, and they have been supported for a year and a half, so there is no big problem." ”

Xia Yanqing didn't intend to accept this proposal, "Let's do it according to what Shao Gongzi and my father discussed last night, just find a few more stewards." Isn't there still Zhan Qiye and Zhang Wuye to help out? There should be enough manpower. ”

Xia Zitang frowned when he heard this: "The provocation and harassment on the transportation route, I'm afraid that the steward will not be useful." ”
