Dong Gong Mei

Chapter 143 Yue Lao's Character
"Industry?" The second wife, Yuan Shi, was the first to exclaim, "Did the crown prince give the property to Sister Wei?"

"Don't you know?" Tang Heng spread his hands, "Hu Cao has already registered and made a book, and someone will deliver the relevant deeds to Miss Zhao in the evening."

The old lady's face was filled with joy, and she looked at Zhao Xiwei with unconcealed satisfaction in her eyes: Look, you know it's not a blessing if you lose your horse, and you know that this child is blessed!
Afraid of being too obvious and letting the daughters-in-law guess the inside story, he took Zhao Xiwei's hand and said lovingly: "It was thanks to your second aunt, the prince wanted to allocate grain from Taihe Rice Shop, so I ordered I sold this favor to Sister Wei."

Zhao Xiwei didn't want to be too high-profile, after all, she is a young lady who has not left the court, and people know that she is taken care of by the crown prince, so there will be a lot of discussions, so she also nodded with a smile: "Exactly, it's all thanks to the second aunt. .”

The smile on the second lady's face became a little stiff, so she held the teacup and drank tea.

Seeing such a small expression of hers, Zhao Xiwei felt a little complicated.

This Yuan family is probably thinking about the shop Li Xuanye gave him.

After drinking the tea, Tang Heng hurriedly said goodbye: "I'm going to take a rest today, my wife said that I want to cook grilled fish, I can't waste the time..."

The old lady hurriedly got up to see her off, but Tang Heng refused again and again: "How can I trouble the old lady, just let Miss Zhao take me out."

"..." Zhao Xiwei was speechless.

Full of doubts, she sent Tang Heng to the gate, and ordered the servant girl to pack several jars of sauerkraut and carry them to Tang Heng's car one by one.

After everything was arranged, Tang Heng waved to Zhao Xi slightly.

Zhao Xiwei was standing at the door, but when he saw Tang Heng's solemn expression, he walked over: "What orders does Master Tang have?"

There was no one around, Tang Heng lowered his voice and said in a low voice: "Miss Zhao, I have been an official in the court for dozens of years, and I know His Royal Highness very well, there are always five or six points... You can be very responsible Let me tell you, the prince is both talented and beautiful, has a noble character, and has never indulged in womanizing. All the women who want to marry him in Chang'an City are lined up from the south of the city to the north of the city..."

"..." Zhao Xiwei watched him go further and further away, and interrupted him hurriedly: "Your Majesty Tang is just joking, His Royal Highness is precious in gold and jade, which is naturally incomparable to ordinary people."

Tang Heng glared at her with the eyes of "why don't you get enlightened, kid?" and said: "Go back and read that daily life note carefully. It took a lot of trouble for the officials to get it from Tai Shicheng's hands." Take it, you must not waste it in vain!"

"??" The corners of Zhao Xiwei's mouth twitched, and it took a lot of effort to maintain the demeanor of everyone's ladies, without letting himself show the slightest disrespectful expression.

It's a pity that Tang Heng only wanted to lead the red line for His Royal Highness, and turned a blind eye to Zhao Xiwei's reaction.

"Hey, Your Highness is so kind to you, but you don't appreciate it at all." He shook his head again and again, and said to himself, "...the lower officials have helped everything they can, but how to get the rest of the way depends on you." He himself..."

The look of hating iron but not steel is very like an old mother who is looking forward to hugging her grandson soon.

Zhao Xiwei's face was full of depression, after thinking about it, he finally asked cautiously: "Well... how did His Royal Highness treat me well?"

"Ah, do you still need to ask? It's not good for you, why do you personally visit Cao to check the files for you?"

"It's for business."

"It's not good for you, why do you still give you the property under my name?"

"Of course it's for disaster relief."

Tang Heng had to work hard this month, and suddenly his face was full of grief: "You, you little girl, how do you know how to eat candied haws?"

Zhao Xiwei didn't want to hear his noise anymore, and seeing the coachman raised his whip, he hurriedly bid farewell to Tang Heng: "Master Tang, please go slowly."

God knows if he continues to speak, what more shocking sentences will come out.

She didn't forget her most important matter - go back and talk to Yuan Shi about the rice shop, and she has to report to Li Xuanye before sunset today.

Thinking of the change on Yuan's face just now, Zhao Xiwei felt a little uncomfortable.

Turning around the Jiuqu Corridor, the Rong'an Hall was very quiet. Two sparrows were jumping around in the courtyard looking for food, and their chirping was the only sound in the entire courtyard.

There were two maidservants standing outside the main room. When Lao Yuan saw Zhao Xiwei, he shook his hand and made a "shh" gesture. Zhao Xiwei lightened his steps and asked in a low voice when he walked to the door: "What happened?" What's wrong?"

The two servant girls looked embarrassed, you looked at me, I looked at you, the older one sighed softly: "The old lady is angry with the third lady and is reprimanding her, Miss Wei, please go in and persuade her. "

Zhao Xiwei's heart skipped a beat, did the old lady discover something?

She was thinking about it when she suddenly heard a "snap" inside, the sound of palms being slapped on the table, and the old lady's angry voice came through the door and window: "Mr. Sun, kneel down!"

not good!

The two servant girls trembled in fright, and said in a low voice: "Why don't you go in after a while."

"It's okay." Zhao Xi shook his head slightly, gave the two of them a peaceful look, and gently lifted the curtain.

The atmosphere in the room was very cold and solemn, the old lady was sitting on the couch in the north, her eyes could not conceal the sternness, maybe she was too excited just now, her breath was a little short at this moment.

The third wife, Mrs. Sun, knelt in the middle of the room, bowed her head and remained silent. Zhao Xiwei couldn't see the expression on her face clearly.

Seated on the left and right are the second wife Yuan Shi and the eldest wife Xu Yunjiao.

One of the two was sitting upright drinking tea, the other was bored counting the pearls on the bracelet.

They all look like they have nothing to do with themselves.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Xiwei couldn't help but sighed again.

With the current situation of the third lady, even though she is looked down upon by the people of the Zhao family, if these people know her original background, she might be trampled into the dust.

Seeing Zhao Xiwei come in, the old lady's face softened a little, but she could see that her anger was still lingering, she waved her hand impatiently, and didn't even give her a chance to speak.

Zhao Xiwei is a sensible person, going up to intercede for the third wife at this time is tantamount to adding fuel to the fire.

So he curtseyed and quietly stepped aside.

While rubbing the old lady's back, Nanny Zhou softly persuaded, "Old lady, calm down, what should you do if you lose your temper?"

"How can I not be angry? How can I not be angry!" The old lady pointed her fingers at the daughters-in-law in front of her, "None of you let me worry!"

Said with the wind in his eyes like a knife, he flew towards Mrs. Sun fiercely: "In the past, I saw you as a virtuous and sensible person, but I didn't expect to make such a big mess for me! You say you like playing the piano, let it be, you have to be with me. What does the luthier do here?"
