Chapter 39: The Storm Fills the House (VI)

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++ the dividing line of the mountain rain is coming, and the wind is full of buildings (VI).

Since Gao Lingmo left, Xinjie has been very busy. Sometimes I can come back after three watches, and sometimes I can't return to Zhuangzi after going out for a few days. But this is only known to the people around him, and what people outside see is that the third young master went out to eat flowers and wine, or called friends to eat and drink in Xianyang City. The more he did this, the happier Mrs. Tang became, and she always felt that it was mud that could not support the wall, and it was thanks to the old lady who helped him so much. But the third young master also has a time when he is serious about doing things, and as soon as he is serious about doing things in Zhuangzi, Mrs. Tang will be extremely unhappy for a day.

After Xinjie returned to Tangzhuang this time, the old lady cleaned up the original General Tang's study and gave it to him. To the outside world, it is only said that Xinjie is now in charge of both Baihuatang and Baicaotang's many affairs, and needs a spacious place to do things. He specially transferred a few capable people from Baihuatang to take care of the study in an orderly manner, and the access control was strict, and the idle people were not allowed to enter. Every day, the people of Baicaotang and Baihuatang go to the open hall in the front yard to report on affairs, and Lian'er and Xinjie take care of it together. After that, he returned to the study to deal with the books and mails from all over the world. In the afternoon, the corresponding people sent out the letters. During the day, there are significantly twice as many people coming in and out of various return affairs as in the past. And Xinjie's own Yuehuaxuan and Aokitang's people also often come over, and from time to time, the prince of the capital sends people to deliver letters, and some are friends of the third young master in the rivers and lakes, buddies who grew up together in the city, and the descendants of these people. There are so many people that the subordinates in Zhuangzi can't tell who these suddenly extra people are. The third young master didn't explain much to them, but just asked the person he designated to receive and pass the news, and the old family in Zhuangzi didn't understand the situation for a while, and always felt that they were left out by the third young master, and they were panicked. There are more people coming in and out of the Zhuangzi, and even the business of the tavern in the Wabao village is much better than in the past. The people outside who don't know what is inside say that the third son of the Tang family is going to be in charge.

These changes reached Mrs. Tang, and she didn't have the patience to find out who these people were, but she knew that the subordinates and the various shopkeepers had gone to talk to Xinjie, and even his grandfather's study was occupied by him. The study was particularly annoyed, as if a slap was slapping her in the face. His eldest son didn't use his grandfather's study, and his son from a side room actually sat in it in a grand manner. Taking advantage of his son's absence, he not only got the unpopular Miss Cousin, but also coaxed the old lady to hand over a bunch of business at home to him to take care of temporarily. She was depressed in her heart, and this time she wanted Xintian to see the true nature of his brother, lest her son always be foolish to defend him.

On this day, she was about to go to Xianyang City to attend a banquet and walked towards the second gate. I didn't want a little guy to come in with a box in his hand, and when he turned the corner, he didn't see the mama who was opening the road in front of him, and he hit the box in his hand and fell to the ground, falling out of a set of red gold heads inlaid with pearls. Li Shi is a person who has seen the market, and when he saw that this jewelry was top-notch in terms of workmanship and materials, it cost 500 taels of silver, to say the least. There are only a few hostesses in this village, the old lady will not use this, this is not her own, Xinyu does not have the money to buy such an expensive one by herself.

"Where did you come from?"

"Mrs. Hui, this is the one that was just sent to the third young master from the Tianjiang Silver Building in the city, saying that the third young master ordered the goods in the store before."

"What a third young master, what a big deal." She panicked in her heart: "The bill has been paid? ”

"The people in the store said that the third young master gave it to him in the store before."

Not having to pay for the goblin to dress it made her feel a lot happier. But where did this kid get so much money? Thinking that he had meddled in the business, he was shocked to sweat, right? She's going to have to look it up.

On this day, Mrs. Tang remembered this matter. At the banquet, I also heard a few officials and wives there talk about the third child is now out of business, and several good friends in Xianyang City have often seen Xinjie in the city since the autumn, and some ladies also asked her if the third child has a favorite girl, and some people have seen him buy things in the jewelry store in the city a few times. The more Mrs. Tang listened, the more wrong it became, where did the third child get so much money, if he really embezzled the money from the public school, it would be a good thing, just take the opportunity to drive him out completely. The mood that had been heavy for a long time cleared up as a result.

At dusk, the person she sent to investigate came back to report, not that the third child had a problem, but that the third child gave the shopkeeper Xie of the Luoyang Branch, which was the son of her companion Aunt Xie, and he didn't directly hit her in the face. What's more, for so many years, Shopkeeper Xie is a powerful person in front of Xintian, this is not an obvious attempt to suppress the old man in Xintian's absence, and to seize the power of this Baicaotang.

The third child has been outside all these years, she thought that he had really stopped worrying about the family's business, how long had it been, the old lady and Tang Lan were still there, and he couldn't help it. She can't leave it alone, otherwise when her son comes back, this Baicaotang will become someone else's. But she also knew that she couldn't take advantage of herself by fighting hard, that person was the top of the old lady's heart, and it was the old lady who asked him to take charge of the affairs of Baicaotang temporarily. Since he has given down the hall master, there must be more than this. She can wait. Over the years, she has also had some people of her own in the Tang family, otherwise how could she find out about such a secret thing that the third child hid the shopkeeper Xie.

She now thinks it's a good thing for the third child to do it, but if he doesn't do it, she can't find an excuse to treat him. He didn't keep this matter secret, even Aunt Xie didn't know that her son was masturbated by the third child, and she found someone to guard it secretly. That is to say, I don't want people to know for a while, this is to hide from her and Xintian, dig a hole for them first? Then she did as he wanted.
