Chapter 171: Human nature is sometimes vulnerable to interests
Tang Shuyi was thinking that it wouldn't be such a coincidence, so she listened to Mrs. Nanlingbo say: "It's not uncommon for the child to be found, but as soon as the child came back, he said that the Wu family wanted to kill him, and it was the Wu family that your Yuchen once married." ”
Tang Shuyi: "......"
What a coincidence!
"Thanks to your Yuchen and the girl of the Wu family, the Wu family is really not a good family." Mrs. Nanlingbo said again.
Tang Shuyi heard what she said and asked, "There is something new in the Wu family?" ”
Mrs. Nanling Bo took a sip of tea and said, "Didn't your Yuchen divorce with that Second Miss Wu?" ”
Tang Shuyi: "Mm-hmm. ”
"Why did you quit your family? Don't tell me it's a mismatch. Mrs. Nanlingbo said suddenly.
Tang Shuyi smiled and said nothing, Mrs. Nanling knew that there should be something to say in the middle, so she didn't ask again, but continued: "Not long after this Second Miss Wu and your family Yuchen divorced, she hooked up with his cousin Zhang Wugongzi. Now Zhang Wugongzi is clamoring to withdraw from the eldest girl of the Zhao family. Don't you say it's a scourge? ”
Tang Shuyi picked up the cup and drank tea, these feelings and love in the world are really tricky. Wise people with strong hearts are okay and will not be swayed by it, but those who are not clear in mind can easily fall into it.
Why bother?
"How do you know this?" Tang Shuyi asked Mrs. Nanlingbo.
Mrs. Nanlingbo: "Fifth Prince Zhang wants to divorce from Miss Zhao, and the Zhao family is not a vegetarian, so he can't let his own girl tarnish his reputation for no reason, so he will tell the matter between Miss Wu Er and Fifth Prince Zhang." Many people in Beijing know about this, you are busy every day, I guess you didn't pay attention. ”
Tang Shuyi nodded, "I really didn't pay attention, you can tell me anything new in the future." ”
Listening to gossip is a woman's love.
Mrs. Nanling naturally had nothing to do, and Tang Shuyi told her again: "The hall is decorated, go back and make an appointment with my sister-in-law and second sister-in-law, and go to the hall to play horse hanging." ”
Mrs. Nanlingbo immediately said yes, and at the same time said: "I will call a few more acquaintances, and open two more tables at that time." ”
She naturally did this to solicit customers for the hall, Tang Shuyi understood, and said with a smile: "Then I thank you first." ”
Mrs. Nanlingbo waved her hand and said no, the two chatted for a while, and Mrs. Nanlingbo left. Not long after she left, Steward Zhao sent a post, Tang Shuyi opened it and saw that it was the eldest lady of the Tong family, saying that she would come to visit tomorrow.
Just listened to their gossip and will be able to meet people tomorrow. Tang Shuyi roughly guessed what the Tong family was going to do, it was nothing more than the incident in the Sogo Temple.
"Reply to them, I will sweep the couch tomorrow to greet them." Tang Shuyi said.
Steward Zhao answered and left, and Tang Shuyi said to Cuizhu Cuiyun: "Wu Guoliang would never have thought that an inconspicuous little monk would be the nephew of a second-grade master. Therefore, if a child is not taught well, it can ruin the future of a family. ”
It's not like ruining a family's future. Wu Guoliang is the only official in the Wu family, and the previous events made him unable to be promoted again, and this time it is estimated that the official position will not be guaranteed!
This has nothing to do with her, Tang Shuyi is worried that Wu Jingyun is in a hurry and jumps off the wall. If Wu Guoliang loses his official position, Wu Jingyun is the daughter of a commoner, even if Mrs. Zhang loves her again, she will not be able to marry Zhang Wugongzi justifiably.
Therefore, Wu Jingyun is bound to keep Wu Guoliang's office? How to insure? What I'm afraid of is that Wu Jingyun used the secrets of the Yongning Marquis Mansion to exchange interests with others.
Wu Jingyun is reborn, and Tang Shuyi doesn't know if she knows anything else, but she definitely knows that the old marquis's former wife is not dead, and he has a very promising grandson. If someone uses him to oppose the Hou Mansion, it will be another trouble.
After thinking about it, he asked Steward Zhao to come over again and instructed him: "You go and check if there is a student surnamed Xiao around Fang Daru." ”
Steward Zhao was taken aback, "It's the old marquis before..."
Tang Shuyi nodded, "I just heard, you go check first, if there is such a person, don't make a noise." ”
Steward Zhao nodded hurriedly, and then stopped talking, if it was really from the room of the old marquis's previous wife, it would be really a troublesome matter.
Tang Shuyi knew what he was thinking, waved his hand and said, "It's okay, I have arrangements." ”
Steward Zhao was relieved when she said this, and hurriedly went out to investigate. He has always been efficient, and this matter is not difficult to investigate, and the results are available before dinner.
He replied to Tang Shuyi: "Two or three months ago, a student surnamed Xiao found Fang Daru with a letter. After Fang Daru taught him knowledge, he liked it very much, so he recommended him to Shanglin Academy and taught him personally. This student's name is Xiao Yiyuan, and his cousin is named Xiao Yisheng. It is said that the two came all the way from southern Xinjiang. ”
Tang Shuyi snorted, "No wonder I haven't found it, how to find it so far away in southern Xinjiang!" ”
Steward Zhao nodded with a sigh on his face.
"Observe secretly first," Tang Shuyi said: "Since we are the descendants of the old marquis, we can't treat them badly, but we also have to understand our temperament first." ”
"Yes, it should be." Steward Zhao naturally had a heart towards Tang Shuyi and them.
"Be alert, don't be discovered." Tang Shuyi said again.
Since it's the male protagonist in the book, it's not a simple character without an aura, maybe a little clue can be found.
"Madame, don't worry, I'll send someone who has been a scout in the army before." Steward Zhao said.
Tang Shuyi smiled, this is good, an ancient scout! It shouldn't be a problem. But again, she told her to be careful.
Steward Zhao got the order to go out, and Xiao Yuzhu, who was sitting next to Tang Shuyi, asked puzzledly, "Why don't you recognize him directly?" Just give them some money when the time comes. ”
"It's not that simple." Tang Shuyi explained to her softly, "This Xiao Yiyuan, who can be valued by Fang Daru and taught by himself, naturally has something extraordinary, and it is very likely that he will enter the court as an official in the future." If he has a good character, he can say anything, he is a family, and it doesn't matter if he gives money and connections. But what if he is not of good character? Maybe we will be taken advantage of and turned against us. ”
"Mother wants to examine his character?" Xiao Yuzhu asked.
Tang Shuyi nodded, "Be careful in everything." ”
In the book, Xiao Yiyuan, with the blessing of various conditions, won the title of the Marquis of Yongning. He is the male protagonist in the book, so naturally everything he does is reasonable, but as the robbers, they naturally don't think so.
And now the situation is very different from the book, who knows if Xiao Yiyuan will continue the things in the book?
Human nature is sometimes really vulnerable in the face of interests.
