What the young master of the Zhao family is most worried about is not that his father knows that he has placed the girls in the backyard. What he is most worried about is that his mother knows that he plans to open a shop in Licheng. His mother has always wanted him to take care of the business in the capital. If he knows about his
He planned to blame Xu'er for sure.
After hearing Xu'er's words this morning, his father must have been impressed by him. He is not worried. If his father questions him then, he can naturally say that he came up with this idea in order to accommodate those women. After hearing this, his father will definitely believe his words. After all,
He has always been useless in his father's eyes.
As long as his mother didn't know about it, he had nothing to worry about.
"Brother, the plan has been written. Father said that after discussing with Uncle Xian, he will let me go to Licheng." The second young master said.
"Originally I planned to keep you in the capital, because the business here cannot do without you, but if you are willing, why don't we two brothers go to Licheng together?" asked the young master of the Zhao family.
"If my eldest brother is willing to go with me, then it would be the best thing." The second young master said.
"If I go to Licheng alone, I'm worried that Uncle Xian will feel unsafe, but it will be different if I take you with me. After all, you have always done things safely," said the young master of the Zhao family.
"Brother, it's not difficult for you to take care of the business in the shop. If you had gone to the brothel less often in these years, it wouldn't be like this." The second young master said.
"Taking care of the shop is no small matter, you do it much more seriously than I do." The young master of the Zhao family said.
"I knew the eldest brother would say that." The second young master said.
The young master of the Zhao family took the plan and read it. The contents were more detailed than before. Xu'er had indeed done things properly, and even some small details were written on it. It was much better than the one he had given Xu'er before.
It looks more detailed, and my father will definitely be very satisfied after reading it.
"This plan has been well revised. Now go and give it to father. I hope that after father reads it, he will send it to Uncle Xian as soon as possible." The young master of the Zhao family said.
"Yes, I'll go over right away," the second young master said.
After the second young master finished speaking, he put away the plan and went directly to the study to find the master.
"Father, this is the plan I mentioned to you early in the morning to open a shop in Licheng." the second young master said.
"You are quite fast, you have already written it before noon." Mr. Zhao said happily.
"First see if there is anything you need to add. Xu'er still doesn't understand many things and needs father's guidance." The second young master said.
The master of the Zhao family likes the second young master's humility and studiousness. I heard that when he arrived at the shop on the first day, he did not act like a young master, but followed the servants to greet the guests all day long. It is precisely because of this that he is like this
move.
The master of the Zhao family asked the second young master to sit down. He spread the plan on the table and read it carefully. He felt that the plan was very good and very detailed. After reading it, he was very satisfied. So he said to the second young master:
"This plan is very well written. I will give it to Uncle Xian as soon as possible. After discussing it with him, I will give you an answer. Have you discussed with your elder brother who is going to Licheng?"
"I have already contacted my eldest brother just now. He wants us to go together. I wonder what father thinks?" the second young master said.
"If you two brothers can take care of each other, it will be the best. Now that you have decided, then do what you want." Mr. Zhao said.
"Yes, thank you father. Then Xu'er will go back to the shop first. The shop should be busy now." The second young master said.
"Go back after eating. The food is almost ready." Mr. Zhao said.
"No need, I'll go back to the shop and have a meal with the waiter." After the second young master finished speaking, he left the study.
The master of the Zhao family shook his head helplessly and allowed the second young master to leave the Zhao Mansion. He had always known that Xu'er was ambitious, and now that he saw the two brothers working together, he was even more pleased.
Mr. Zhao said to the servants on the side: "Send this plan to Licheng as soon as possible and hand it over to Lao Xian."
"Yes, sir." the servant said.
"If Ting'er has a soul in heaven, she would be very happy to see Xu'er succeeding like this." Mr. Zhao said.
"Master, now that the two young masters can work together to take care of the business, you can finally relax," the servant said.
"If Bin'er is really willing to take care of his business, then it would be the best. I'm just worried about you, he will make mischief again." Mr. Zhao said.
"Don't worry, sir. I think the young master is serious this time," the servant said.
"I hope so." Mr. Zhao said.
"Master, I will leave now. Do you have anything else to say to Uncle Xian?" the servant said.
"Let him take a good look at the plan. If there are no problems, send the letter back as soon as possible." Mr. Zhao said.
"Yes, sir." the servant said.
After receiving the order, the subordinates did not dare to waste time and quickly went to Licheng with the plan in hand.
When it was time to eat, Madam specially sent someone to invite the Master over. Master Zhao knew that Madam was not willing to give in, and must have wanted to know what Xu'er had said to him in the morning.
Sure enough, as soon as he put down his chopsticks, Mr. Zhao took a sip of tea and heard his wife murmuring: "Now that Xu'er has made progress, you don't even care about Bin'er's feelings."
"Madam, what's going on?" Mr. Zhao asked, pretending not to know anything.
"What do you think? Just now Xu'er planned to discuss things in the shop with you. I suggested that Bin'er go with me, but you refused right away. Bin'er usually doesn't live up to his expectations. Not many people in the house look up to him, and you think so?
Teach him a lesson in front of Xu'er. After all, Bin'er is the eldest son of the Zhao family, how could you do this?" said the lady.
"You know that Bin'er never likes to talk about business. He would be bored if he went in. Why let him go to the study with us?" said the master of the Zhao family.
"Bin'er has been so wronged, and you didn't even say a word of comfort. You only thought about Xu'er," Mrs. Zhao said.
"Bin'er was caught by His Highness King Mo. How could he be wronged? Did someone force Bin'er and Yue'er to ride in the same carriage? Or did someone drugged Yue'er in order to frame Bin'er?"
Mr. Zhao said.
"Don't you think there's something wrong with this matter? Bin'er is indeed greedy for women, but he doesn't dare to do anything to Yue'er. Your sister and I have always told him not to get too close to Yue'er. Although that night was
He took the initiative to ask Yue'er to be sent back, but I knew he didn't dare to touch Yue'er. Didn't I say it before? It was Yue'er who drugged herself, just to seduce His Highness King Mo. Now she has succeeded.
Yes, our Bin'er has suffered a lot." Madam Zhao said, suppressing her anger.
"What evidence do you have to say that? Even His Highness King Mo has confirmed it, and you are still talking nonsense. I will carefully arrest you and accuse you of spreading rumors and causing trouble." The master of the Zhao family said.
"This is a girl. If I had evidence and there was no need to argue with you here, I would have arrested her and beaten her up long ago," Mrs. Zhao said.
"Now, you can only go to the Prime Minister's Mansion and say something nice to your sister and Yue'er. I hope they can say something nice for Bin'er in the ears of His Highness King Mo. Otherwise, what else can you do?" said the Zhao family master.
"How could Yue'er say a good word for Bin'er? That dead girl deliberately framed Bin'er, so how could she plead with His Highness King Mo on his behalf?" Mrs. Zhao's wife said.
"It's not that His Highness Prince Mo didn't give him a chance to talk about this matter, he just asked him to tell it, and he couldn't tell clearly. His Highness Prince Mo would not accuse him unjustly unless he had really done it," said Mr. Zhao.
"You old man, you would rather trust outsiders than your own son," Mrs. Zhao said.
"Madam, I also want to believe Bin'er's words, but doesn't Bin'er have no explanation? Besides, he has been obsessed with beauty for so many years. If you say he is innocent, will anyone believe you?" Zhao
The master said.
"So, Bin'er was wrongly accused, and Yue'er saw exactly this in him, so she chose to frame him." Mrs. Zhao said.
"Obviously it was him who proposed to send Yue'er back home. Yue'er wouldn't have been sure early in the morning that Bin'er would send her back, right? Besides, Yue'er has repeatedly refused, so you must let Bin'er send her back.
Isn't that right?" Mr. Zhao said.
"Where did you hear that? That's not what happened." Madam Zhao denied.
"Since you are unwilling to admit it, there is nothing more to say." Mr. Zhao stood up and said.
"Where are you going again?" Mrs. Zhao asked.
"I'm going to ask Bin'er what happened that day." After saying this, Mr. Zhao left the main courtyard.
Of course, he didn't ask what happened that day at all, he just wanted to know who was behind Bin'er's back and helped Bin'er think of doing business in Licheng.
When the master of the Zhao family went, the young master of the Zhao family had just finished his meal and was leaning on the rocking chair and drinking tea leisurely. The master of the Zhao family frowned slightly when he saw the young master of the Zhao family being so lazy. Those plans for this morning,
Was it really Bin'er who came up with it?
The young master of the Zhao family opened his eyes and happened to see the master of the Zhao family walking in. He quickly stood up and said respectfully to the master: "Father, why are you here at this time?"
"I just had dinner with your mother, and my ears hurt because of her annoyance." Mr. Zhao said.
"Father, Bin'er already knows that he was wrong. I hope father won't be angry about this anymore." The young master of the Zhao family said.
"Bin'er, you should know what Xu'er said to me in the study this morning, right?" said the Zhao family master.
"Have Xu'er told you everything?" the young master of the Zhao family asked.
"Yes, he proposed to open a new shop in Licheng, and then he said it was your plan. Is what he said true?" Mr. Zhao asked.
"Actually, I went to the shop yesterday and I did have something I wanted to discuss with Xu'er. At first it wasn't about opening a shop, it was just a small matter. I didn't expect that as we talked, it turned into a big deal like opening a shop."
I feel ashamed, this is all thanks to Xu'er." said the young master of the Zhao family.
"After so many detours, what do you want to say?" Mr. Zhao asked.
"Actually, it's not an important matter. It's about the women in my backyard." The young master of the Zhao family said with a smile.
"You went to the shop to discuss matters in your backyard with Xu'er?" Master Zhao asked in disbelief.
"Yes, I did go to the shop specifically to discuss this matter," said the young master of the Zhao family.
