Because of Xue Lin's death, Mo Li was given a good excuse, and after inquiring about the news of the trading company, her joining the trading company was put on hold first. And after Han Sidao knew what Xue Lin said that day from Mo Li's mouth, he was silent for a moment, and then looked at Mo Li deeply, neither denying nor defending himself, just sighed and left.

It's just that Xue Lin's funeral has been completed, but Shi Dashan and the others have not yet returned from Anxian County, so the deal has naturally not been decided. Seeing that it was the end of August, the people of the trading company began to be a little unable to sit still, especially the merchants who were holding the goods in their hands, and they all came over to urge Han Sidao. Han Sidao was also very irritable in his heart, but in just one year, his wife and concubine died, no matter what, it was a huge blow to a man. Some people around him had begun to point fingers at him in secret, and his mother had specially invited many mages to come to his house to do things to ward off bad luck, but his third brother was so frightened by the nonsense of those mages that he hid in the room and didn't dare to come out. Everything needs to be arranged by him to deal with it properly, everyone has to ask him to put his mind at ease, a candle burns at both ends, he feels more and more physically and mentally exhausted, and there are words of suffering.

And the things in the mall are full of uncertainties, coupled with the chaos of the family, which directly affects many of his decisions in buying and selling. What's more, there is also a silk line eyeing him next to him, except for Shi Dashan's business, which is still hanging, several other transactions in the trading company are also connected to suffer a dark loss when he is not sure. The vicious cycle caused by this simply made him anxious, and several old stewards in the trading company began to have a lot of dissatisfaction with him, but at such a moment, he heard that Ji Yufeng was about to return to Yongzhou. Han Sidao really hated his lack of skills, when the previous trading company was under his leadership, the momentum was getting better and better day by day, Ji Yufeng was not there, but now when the situation turned down, he suddenly wanted to come back, but at this moment, he didn't know how to explain these things. So Han Sidao had to put his whole mind on the trading company, and no matter what, he had to try to save the wrong decisions he had made before. In this way, he couldn't take care of the business in the splendid forest for a while, so he had to hand it over to the second shopkeeper to take care of it first.

Contrary to the situation of the trading company, Silk Bank stood firmly in the past countless unfavorable rumors, and under the secret instruction of Mo Li, snatched several transactions from the trading company. The malicious slander before suddenly seemed so insignificant in the face of the current facts. Even if Ah Sheng has not returned, for businessmen who don't know the inside story of the Mo family, they no longer care about such a thing. What's more, as soon as the Mid-Autumn Festival passed, after Mo Li and the third old lady Mo had a detailed conversation, she immediately arranged for people to quietly release the fact that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince personally placed an order with the Mo family to ask for twenty horses that would be beautiful in the world.

As Mo Li expected, this news caused a great reaction in the mall, but in a few days, the merchants who had secretly stayed away because of Ah Sheng's affairs before began to come over again to solicit relationships and merge to inquire about the truth. The Mo family's business has seen a trend of improvement, and the changes in the business field have made people see the things before and after.

"Fifteen girls, if the nobles above are to blame" Although the momentum of the Mo family has gradually improved due to Mo Li's ideas and arrangements, Mo Changqing is still a little worried in his heart. After all, there is no real distinction between the crown prince and the third prince now, and there is no definite news from Ah Sheng's side, if the prince wants to abandon the Mo family, it must be because he doesn't want too many people to know that he has been involved in the Mo family. The struggle for power is a hundred times more shocking than the game in the business field, and the winning or losing in the power field is a thousand times more unpredictable than the situation in the business field.

"What rumors can suppress such glory at the moment, not to mention that this matter is true, and it is not fabricated by the Mo family out of thin air. As for the day when the Mo family is really abandoned, there will be one more blame and one less blame, and it is estimated that the situation will not be much different. Mo Li's eyes were faint, and she looked around the hall as she spoke, although these elders in the clan still had a little disapproval on their faces, but in the face of the actual benefits, no one had to say anything against it, so she continued, "I heard that Ji Yufeng is coming back soon, in my opinion, he must have made sufficient preparations to come back this time, if the Mo family does not quickly reverse the situation, then there will be only a share of being slaughtered." ”

Mo Changqing pondered for a moment, and then had to nod, Mo Li said: "In this case, I will go back first, and the rest of the three uncles will look at it, I still have some things to do in my store." ”

But as soon as he returned to Yunshang Pavilion, before he could go inside, Jia Hei hurriedly walked over, lowered his voice and said: "Dongjia, Master Xie is back, and he has just sent someone over to leave a message, so that the Dongjia will go to him as soon as he comes back." ”

Mo Li breathed for a moment, and after standing there for a moment, he suddenly turned around and walked out again.

It's already early September, and Xie Gexian has been on this trip for two months, during which he has nothing else to say except for the news that Ah Sheng is still in prison but no one is in trouble. The people she and the Mo family sent before couldn't get in touch with that kind of upper class at all, and they spent a lot of money, but they didn't inquire about the exact news at all. During these days, if it weren't for Xie Gexian to send back such news, she really thought that Ah Sheng would have disappeared.

On the way to the study, I saw Wang Ying, who was already nine months old, walking in the yard holding the maid's hand. Mo Li was in a hurry to go to Xie Gexian's study, but Wang Ying stopped her and greeted her with a chuckle: "Mo Dong's family is here." ”

"Yes, Madame's complexion is so good today." Mo Li had to stand still and say casually, and then without waiting for Wang Ying to speak again, she hurriedly said again, "Please forgive me, Madame, I have something urgent to ask Master Xie at this time, so I will be absent first." ”

Looking at Mo Li's back as she walked towards Xie Gexian's study, the maid who was holding Wang Ying couldn't help but snort with some dissatisfaction: "What kind of attitude does she have, Madame is willing to talk to her and look down on her, but she doesn't know what to do like this!" ”

"She's also worried about her husband, what's to blame for this, such a woman, even I can't help but be a little envious."

The maid smiled, and while helping Wang Ying back to the room, she said: "Madame's golden branches and jade leaves in the imperial city, when I went to live in Xie Mansion before, even the grandmothers there were very polite to Madame, and the girls in Nafu admired Madame even more, how could Madame envy such a vulgar merchant girl." She is also good-looking, but after all, she is not a serious person, and in my opinion, she can't even compare to a single hair of her wife. Ying shook her head and sighed lightly: "You know what I have, she doesn't necessarily want it, but what she has is something I can't hope for." ”

The maid was even more puzzled, but Wang Ying didn't want to say any more, so she changed her mind and asked her to take out the child's small clothes to see what else was not prepared.

After Mo Li entered the study, he looked at Xie Gexian with a nervous face, and opened his mouth, but he didn't know where to start for a while, and even didn't dare to ask for fear of hearing bad news.

"He's been released from prison, but he can't come back for the time being, but it seems that there should be no major incident at the moment." Xie Gexian raised her eyes, looked at Mo Li for a moment, and finally said the news she wanted to hear the most. The autumn sun shone in through the screen window, reflecting his face more and more handsomely, and in the past two months, he has experienced several power struggles, all of which are turbulent. Now that he has come back for the time being, his face is inevitably a little tired, but there is still a faint joy in his eyes.

The woman in front of his wife's imminent birth looked well, which was good, and at least a comfort to him.

"Yes, yes" Hearing this, Mo Li was stunned for a while, and then finally reacted, and then his eyes blurred. After four months, the sword hanging over my heart has finally been put down. As Ah Sheng left at that time, her tears burst out uncontrollably, and it seemed that she couldn't wipe them clean, but this kind of occasion was really not the place for her to cry. So he was in a hurry for a while, and compared with the dignified and generous in the past, it seemed much more embarrassing.

Xie Gexian didn't persuade her, nor did he get up and handed her a handkerchief, just sat there and watched quietly.

"He's really a little lucky" After a long time, he couldn't help but sigh softly to himself, and at this time, Mo Li finally controlled his emotions, and then he remembered to ask Ah Sheng why he couldn't come back since he was fine.

"I like his horse technique, and leave him for the time being." Xie Gexian explained as he spoke, "Some time ago, there were more than a dozen extremely strong horses on the grassland, and no one in the palace could tame them, but he was the only one who could control them. ”

Mo Li was relieved, and then asked, "Then at that time, why was he imprisoned?" ”

Xie Gexian was silent for a while before slowly telling what happened at that time.

It turned out that when Ah Sheng was made to look by the three princes in the capital, when the emperor was talking to the prince about the Yue Kingdom at the summer resort, somehow, he suddenly remembered him, so he asked people to take Ah Sheng to the summer resort. Unexpectedly, Ah Sheng's past, before he could face the saint seriously, he collided with the saint first. I heard that the emperor almost fell off his horse at that time, such an disrespectful behavior made the emperor angry, and he wanted to be held accountable himself, but it happened that there was a war on the side of the Yue clan at that moment. So the emperor put aside the matter of holding him accountable for the time being, and the third prince took this opportunity to put Ah Sheng in prison for the crime of disrespect, and tried to rediscover the ominous theory of the birth of the silkworm to get rid of the Mo family, and intended to use this matter to involve the prince.

The crown prince was already guarding against the actions of the three princes, and he also felt that Ah Sheng's collision with the holy car was quite strange that day, not to mention that the horse that the emperor was riding at that time was only trained and presented by him a few days ago. So he secretly asked people to ask the cause carefully, and only then did he know that that day, after Ah Sheng was taken to the summer resort, he accidentally found that there was something wrong with the horse material of a certain horse in the stable. Later, when he faced the saint at the hunting ground, he saw that the horse under the emperor's seat at that time was the one he had found wrong before.

At that time, the emperor had already whipped his horse and drove away, Ah Sheng didn't have time to remind, and he couldn't explain, so he immediately grabbed a horse and rushed up. In this way, he succeeded in preventing an accident, but the slight madness of the horses at that time was mistaken for the fact that he was frightened by his relationship. In addition, the war in the south came at that time, so the emperor did not chase after him, so he asked people to take people and horses down, so there was the next matter of imprisonment.

The prince, who knew the reason, naturally couldn't let go of this opportunity, so he immediately asked Xie Gexian to go to Beijing.

What happened in the court in the past two months, and the details of the battle between the prince and the third prince, it is not impossible to go out, but the prince returned Ah Sheng's innocence, and let him show his face in front of the palace, and made him successfully get the blue eyes of the saint.

After listening, Mo Li was stunned for a moment, and then hesitated and asked, "Then, when will he come back?" ”

Xie Gexian thought for a while and said: "In half a month, it will be the royal ancestor worship day, and it is estimated that he should come back at that time." ”

I'll be back in half a month.

After returning home, she still didn't dare to believe that this was true, until when she went to see Zhu's and was asked about Ah Sheng by Zhu again, she subconsciously didn't avoid talking about it as before, and finally came back to her senses.

Finally, I don't have to struggle anymore!

Even if the Zhu family didn't know at first, she couldn't see anyone for four months, and after Mo Li's status in the clan became more and more important, her contacts with the concubines in the clan were more frequent than before. Therefore, it is impossible for her not to hear a little rumor, but because she watched her daughter become silent day by day, and every time she asked about Ah Sheng, she would be brought over by Mo Li in a few words, so she also understood that most of the things were not optimistic.

Now, when he suddenly heard from Mo Li's mouth that Ah Sheng was about to come back, Zhu was stunned for a while, and then he forcibly suppressed the excitement in his heart, and nodded with a tearful smile: "Okay, good, it's good to come back, it's good to be back!" ”

"These days, let my mother worry about me, in fact, it was before" Mo Li looked at Zhu's uncontrollable expression, and her heart was slightly pantothenic, but she hesitated for a while, but she still didn't know how to explain. Zhu Shi wiped the corners of his eyes, then shook his head and sighed: "Silly child, my mother understands that you have your own opinions on everything, and you don't want to say it no matter how bitter you are." It's good that others can come back safely, as long as you can do well, better than anything else. By the way, you have to hurry up, tell the old lady about this, the old lady has been reading this to me these days, but she asked me not to ask you all the time, so as not to make you sad, even Xue'er was strictly ordered by the old lady not to talk much. ”

In fact, when she supported the family and became the pillar of the family, her grandmother, mother and sister in the family were not the most solid pillars in her heart. Without them behind her, how could she have the courage to keep moving forward.
