Chapter 7: The Chief Executive Listen to the Opera

The backyard lobby of the Dutong Mansion Mansion is brightly lit, and an actor is dressed up in colorful style, singing in Guilin official dialect, "Open books and sing, learn books and articles, listen to mothers' teachings and be adults, men listen to their parents, women listen to their husbands," his voice is soft and more handsome. At first glance, this actress is a beautiful girl, how can she tell she is a male actor?

Ye Zhao raised his legs to the table, squinted his eyes and listened to the opera, and his feet were still trembling. That was really the style of the second generation ancestor.

Rong'er sat speechlessly beside her husband, with her little body straight, her eyebrows and eyes as picturesque, and her eyes were carved with jade. She occasionally gave her husband a fragrant tea, which looked like a good wife and mother.

This couple is probably a perfect match.

The actor in the center of the hall is said to be the most outstanding actress in the Cantonese opera team in Guangzhou City. He was invited to his home by Ye Zhao. Although there is no computer or TV in this world, it is even more fun for Ye Zhao, a person who is a second-generation ancestor.

Squinting his eyes, Ye Zhao was still thinking about how to figure out how to tinker with the phonograph earlier. He would not have invented it. However, if there were talents in this field, he could provide inspiration and ideas and the principle of resending sounds. Although he didn't understand it, it would probably be unnecessary for Edison to invent it more than 20 years later.

I also thought that the piano that lawyer Tohore bought from India will arrive one day, but he had the chance to play a song for the matchmaker and the little guy.

"Congratulations to you, all the good things are good!" The flower girl flew over her handkerchief and sang it to the end, and she continued to be as blessed as flowing water, saying in a clear voice: "I wish you love and love with your wife and have a noble son as soon as possible!"

The little guy Rong'er was reserved on the scene and just nodded slightly. Ye Zhao shouted and finally put down his legs, but laughed and said, "Sing well, sing well, come on, see what you want!"

Jixiang walked over and gave him a red envelope. The reward of silver for one to ten taels of silver notes was also Ye Zhao's invention.

"The orchid girl thanks the general, thanks the wife for her reward!" The flower girl knelt down respectfully and kowtowed. The orchid girl thought it was his name.

"Tomorrow I will send a post to your Sanhengtai class master, praise your intention!" This is a great grace. Lord Dutong's post has arrived. From then on, Orchid Girl almost has a talisman. In Guangzhou City, I am afraid no one dares to bully him.

"Thank you, Madam!" Hua Dan kowtowed a few more times.

Ye Zhao waved his hand and according to the rules, Hua Dan was about to retreat. Rui Si, who had been standing in the corner, also came over and was about to lead Hua Dan out of the mansion and send him back to the opera troupe. Seeing that the master was happy, he just sent the sedan to lift him up again.

Maybe when I saw Ye Zhao in a very good mood, the Hua Dan hesitated for a moment, and suddenly knelt down again and kowtowed.

The smile on Ye Zhao's face gradually faded. Seeing Ye Zhao's aura, Rui Si's face darkened and walked over to cheer the actress, "I'm tired, let's go!"

"Sir, the people of Cao have an injustice!" Hua Dan said loudly.

"Pa" a crisp slap on the face, and Rui Si cursed: "I don't know how to lift up, hurry up and get out with me!"

Rong'er stood up and couldn't stand the scene. Ye Zhao smiled and pinched her arm and said, "You go back first. There are French fries on the table, so don't eat them all. Leave some for me."

Rong'er nodded slightly, but when she heard her husband's last words, she ignored him. She felt so depressed that she was in front of many people, as if she was a greedy person.

Fortunately, the good luck and good fortune are used to the carefree prince, and they don’t do it seriously, so they hugged Rong'er.

Watching Rong'er enter the back hall, Ye Zhao turned his head and glared at Rui Si fiercely. Rui Si was scared and sweated in a cold sweat. He knew that his actions just now had disturbed the wife. He lowered his head and didn't dare to look at his master.

The Huadan knelt on the ground and just kept kowtowing.

"Okay, I'll listen to what wronged you have." Ye Zhao picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Hua Dan kowtowed again and said loudly: "Yes, Lord Xie Dutong, Lord Xie Dutong, Caomin wants to avenge my poor sister, and sued Tao Rong, the second grandmother of the shrew, forcing her husband to force her husband, and she committed seven rules. She should be retired!"

Ye Zhao frowned. If the bannermen oppressed the Han people, they would naturally have to take charge. As a result, it was a dispute between the Han people. What's the matter with his Manchu governor?

Ye Zhao picked up the teacup and tasted the tea, saying, "Let's not talk about family affairs. You are from Foshan. You have to go to Foshan County. If you don't have it, you can go to Guangzhou Prefecture, but I can't take care of your affairs at my yamen."

Hua Dan kowtowed hard: "Mr. Caomin knows that it is not in accordance with the rules, but Tao Rong's two families are very powerful. Foshan County and Guangzhou Prefecture refuse to accept the complaints from Caomin. Caomin has no choice but to ask the adults to ask the adults to hang their mirrors high, make the decision for Caomin and make an accusation for Caomin's sister!"

Ye Zhao was about to speak, but when he saw Rui Si looking at him, as if he had something to say, he waved his hand and asked him to come closer.

"Master, I have heard of the second young master of the Tao family and the second young master's grandmother."

Ye Zhao was surprised, "Have you heard of it?"

Ruisi nodded and said, "The Tao family Rong family is in Xiguan, and Tao Lao Er passed by our business gate, and the man told me." He said, "Tao Lao Er's wife calls her grandmother Jin from outside. I heard that it is so beautiful. It seems that she is the business of the Tao family, but she is extremely domineering. Tao Lao Er is afraid of her very much, and this is said to be a joke in Xiguan. But it is not just Tao Lao Er. Master Tao passed away early. Since the Tao family died of illness and has no children left, this second grandmother has gradually made a difference in the Tao family. No one in the Tao family is afraid of her."

Ye Zhao nodded and thought to himself that this is not the late Qing Dynasty version of Wang Xifeng? Guangzhou has always been an external port and the atmosphere is open. I am afraid that Wang Xifeng is not just taking power in family affairs. It seems that she is the business of the Tao family.

Rui Si said again: "Tao Lao Er fears his wife like a tiger and is unwilling to go home for a night, so he develops the problem of taking a concubine. But the concubines he has taken over the years have been sent by Grandma Jin for money. I heard that some people don't want to get the money, but they were punished very badly. I saw that this little girl's injustice originated from this."

Ye Zhao nodded slightly. After Ruisi said along the way, Grandma Jin Er is really a bad woman of this era. But if she wants to put it in her own world, she is so generous that she can't be more generous.

After all, this matter is a family matter. If there is any injustice, it will have to fall on the man Tao Laoer. After thinking about it for a while, Ye Zhao asked, "Orchid Girl, where is your sister?"

Hua Dan kowtowed and said sadly: "Sister has been at home after being driven out by Tao Rong, describing the wormwood..."

Ye Zhao waved his hand and understood that this was a family matter. Orchid Girl's sister was wronged and should have a solution, but she had nothing to do with the government, so she could not get involved. What's more, the culprit who wanted to find Tao Lao Er. Since she didn't have the ability, why bother with the weeds outside? It hurts others and yourself. Orchid Girl was just happy to see him, thinking that she spoiled him and wanted to use her power to make things difficult for the second grandmother of the Tao family. If you sued Tao Lao Er, you would seem to be wise. Of course, no one in this world thinks that way, and will only blame the "shin woman" who refuses to take concubines for her husband.

"You go back, I can't help with this matter." Ye Zhao said and picked up the teacup.
