Traveling to Daliang Kingdom starts from falling into the water

Chapter 802: Very Hard to Control

“To speak superficially to a person with whom you have a deep relationship is called losing the person; to speak deeply to a person with whom you have a shallow relationship is called making a mistake in speaking.” It is very difficult to control, so it is better to listen more, speak less, and just eat and drink.

Adhering to his own way of hospitality, Gu Wenxuan would nod or shake his head before agreeing whenever someone spoke, and would just laugh it off if it was difficult to agree.

Fortunately, the meal was almost over, and the guests were allowed to move to the study to have tea. Zhao Xiaosan could not stay any longer, so he sent the Zhao brothers out.

Otherwise, why would he admire his wife so much for not staying in the finance department when she had a good job in her early years, but instead chose to go into sales. Sales and dealing with people shouldn’t be too tiring!
After watching the carriage that the Zhao brothers were riding in turn around the intersection from the avenue in front of the gate and go straight away, Gu Wenxuan immediately turned around and walked back after no longer seeing the carriage.

Just as he stepped onto the steps in front of the door and was about to cross the threshold, he suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves, which made him pause and turn to look at the intersection of the road in front of the door.

Who else is coming on horseback at this hour?

quickly.

It turned out that he had very good hearing. Someone rode a horse at full speed to the intersection, threw the whip to the guard at the gate, and turned around.

You are such a jerk!

"Where are you from?" Gu Wenxuan turned around, walked down the stairs and walked up to greet Ma Dahu. When he was close to Ma Dahu, he asked without waiting for Ma Dahu to speak.

"In town."

Gu Wenxuan thought so too. Otherwise, why would the Ma family come here at full speed even though they were only a few steps away? There must be something wrong with their brains. "Go find my eldest brother. Have you eaten?"

"I ate with your brother. We talked after dinner. I came back and came to see you before I even went home. Let's talk about it after I go to your house?"

You've said a lot of nonsense, but you didn't see me extending my hand to invite you in? Compared with the two brothers Zhao Dalang, Ma Dahu is much more familiar, so Gu Wenxuan rolled his eyes naturally.

"Hahaha..." Ma Dahu laughed and patted Gu Wenxuan on the shoulder. As they walked forward together, he laughed and said, "Was it the Zhao family's carriage that left first?"

"good eyesight!"

The carriage that the Zhao brothers were riding in this time did not have any Zhao family logo on it, and even the coachman was not a familiar face. Judging from the speed at which both sides were moving, it was impossible for them to greet each other on the road.

Ma Dahu was able to recognize that it was the Zhao family's carriage. Gu Wenxuan immediately praised him and gave a clear answer when he stepped onto the nearest steps, "It's Zhao Dalang and Zhao Sanlang who are here."

"At first I guessed that the person in the carriage was most likely Zhao Sanlang, who worked for the government office. The news spread throughout the restaurant that torches were lit until dawn last night.

I guess Zhao Sanlang also stayed in the government office all night and only came out this morning. He went home to chat with his father and then came to your place. He must have stayed here for about an hour, right?"

Gu Wenxuan nodded, "You found out before you even entered the city?"

"Thanks to your brother's attentiveness, your brother and I went to the Yang's Mutton Soup Restaurant. This morning, many people passed by and went to have a bowl of soup to warm their bodies."

clear!

The Yang family doesn't buy sheep from your Ma family. Unless my eldest brother invites you to the Yang family mutton restaurant, you will never go to his Yang family mutton restaurant and let the Yang family make money from you.

"Otherwise, we have to go from town to city and back, so we can save a trip. No need to go any further, the wind is not strong here, let's chat here." Ma Dahu quickly grabbed Gu Wenxuan who wanted to go in, "Stop being polite, your wife can't leave home now, let's finish our conversation and go back to the house."

This is true!

He had not been in the West Road Courtyard for the whole morning, so he didn't know what his wife was doing, whether she had eaten lunch, or whether she had a good appetite!

"Tiger Girl came back this morning and said that I won't bother to thank you and your wife, because the vacant position guarding the warehouse is perfect.

As for my brothers, my parents want me to go, so it’s either me or the second brother who will go, but the second brother and his friends don’t know about this good thing.

This can be settled. You two owe someone a favor for this matter. I can’t repay it now, but I want to tell you how much money I spent—”

"Stop!" Gu Wenxuan interrupted quickly, "What kind of relationship do our two families have? You're still accusing me of being polite. Just make it up. We'll be going to the government office in about three days.

Tell my uncle that I won't go and talk to him in person today. Wait until I have an agreement with him. Then I will accompany you or my second brother to the government office?"

"Of course that would be great, but it would be inappropriate for you to come forward. How about sending Jiaxing or Zhiming to go with me? You are a scholar and you cannot ruin your reputation."

"It won't ruin your reputation. Your skills are all there for you." Gu Wenxuan hesitated for a moment, "Let's wait for the reply from the other end and see when they tell us to go to the government office.

If I can't leave, I'll let Zhiming go first. He's more familiar with that place than I am. The county magistrate and the chief clerk also know the relationship between our two families and won't make things difficult for you."

Ma Dahu understood what he meant. It meant that no matter whether he or his second brother went, Liu Lang had already made arrangements, so he didn't have to worry about anyone making things difficult for the two brothers.

Think so.

The new official took office three fires.

Liu Lang's senior brother is extremely capable. As soon as he took office, he wiped out Huang Xianwei and his gang completely. How could the county magistrate and the chief clerk not be afraid?
Even if they had not stood on the side of County Magistrate Huang in the past, no matter if they were the timid county magistrate or the cowardly chief clerk, they would have taken advantage of any benefits that County Magistrate Huang offered them.

No matter how innocent they are, they are afraid of being investigated thoroughly. Besides, they have not cut off contact with County Magistrate Huang and regard him as an enemy, so they are still involved to some extent.

I'm afraid that my senior brother Liu Lang might not want to arrest all the people in the county government at once, so he might just let those who are not well treated turn a blind eye be spared.

He thought so and said it bluntly when he asked Gu Wenxuan whether the county magistrate and the chief clerk were in cahoots with the county magistrate, and who he should be on guard against.

Gu Wenxuan could have expected that Ma Dahu would ask this question sooner or later, but he did not expect that Ma Dahu would ask it so eagerly at this moment. But asking him to answer?
"They should be a group of people, at least in the past year or so. They won't be divided into three factions like before when there was only one county government office. Of course, this is my personal opinion."

As for whether or not to be wary of anyone, it is difficult to answer and he cannot give an answer. What does he know? His senior brother came here, so he just wanted to meet him.

Judging from the correspondence they had exchanged since they met, even if his senior brother treated him as his own, it was impossible for him to clearly state in the letter that he would not touch that traitor.

He said he was his senior brother, but he was being roundabout. It wasn't Dajiang. If it was Dajiang, he would definitely have given him a code word in the letter. Is this his senior brother?
"Let's talk about the rest after we get in. I don't really understand their tricks. But if you want to ask me what to do first when entering the mountain, I remember it clearly."

Ma Dahu was immediately amused, "I thought you had long forgotten all about hunting in the mountains, you are truly a master of both civil and military skills.

Okay, stop talking, go and accompany your wife. I'm afraid you haven't had time to go back to your room since the Zhao brothers are here. I'm leaving, so why are you following me?"
