son-in-law

Chapter 8
An Guogong's mansion, study room.

Tang Zhen was wearing a red cloak, with his hands on the hilt of his sword, his face sinking like water, and his back was facing a woman.

The woman was bleeding from the corner of her mouth, lying on the ground panting, her pretty face was full of pain.

"I knew you were the Empress Dowager's hidden stake, but what I didn't expect was that you dared to come back." Tang Zhen turned his head slightly, his eyes squinted: "Tian Jing, you are looking for death."

"My lord, everything this servant says is from the bottom of my heart."

Tranquil's heart was hit hard, probably her ribs were broken.But the blood on her mouth was not caused by a heart wound, but by herself.

The Eighteenth Young Master seldom made a move, but once he did, he would either die or be injured.

Obviously Tang Zhen has shown mercy.

Otherwise, what is lying here at this time must be a corpse.

"Hehe, from the bottom of my heart."

Tang Zhen sneered, turned around, and sat in the chair: "How do you make me believe a hidden stake?"

"Tangning colluded with the queen mother to kill the young master. The slaves risked their lives to pass false news to the queen mother, and saved the young master's life. The young master was waiting for the emperor in the apse, but he didn't know that the axe was buried in the apse."

"You mean, if I can come back alive, I still need to thank you?"

"The servant does not ask the young master to thank him, but only asks the young master to understand the sincerity of the servant."

"Tian Jing, I might as well tell you that the reason why I was able to leave the apse was because a little eunuch next to the emperor risked his life to send me a signal. That little eunuch has now been executed by the queen mother."

"Is he your hidden stake?"

"No. He has never been my hidden stake."

"Then why is he..."

"Because the emperor doesn't want me to die." A sly smile appeared on the corner of Tang Zhen's mouth: "The queen mother has been in power for ten years. And the emperor has grown up."

Su Yu was supervising the work in Xiaocang, and the workers asked Su Yu if he wanted a minor repair or a major repair?If minor repairs are made, the beams will not be moved.In case of major repairs, the beams will need to be removed.Because there are several purlins on the roof with traces of being roasted by fire.

Su Yu asked someone to bring a ladder, climbed up to the roof himself, and jumped on it.

Xiaohuan was called again, and the two held hands and jumped together on the roof.

Su Yu asked the workers, is the purlin still strong?
The worker smiled and said, my uncle can rest assured that the purlin is still strong.

Su Yu smiled and said, then Xiaoxiu.

Having grown so big, Xiao Huan never climbed onto the roof.After all, this is the palace of the princess, how can you let a little maid like you mess around.

Why go to the house, can't you expose the tiles?
It was the first time I climbed to the top today, and I was very scared, otherwise I wouldn't let Su Yu hold her hand before I dared to jump a few times.

I was afraid that my feet would slip and I would fall into a meatloaf.

At first the little girl was timid, but after bouncing around a few times, she laughed out loud, very happy.

Su Yu thought, Xiao Huan is really a girl who loves to laugh.This little girl is restricted by her status, otherwise she must be a crazy and troublesome master.

"Uncle is very courageous, not afraid of heights."

Su Yu smiled wryly, and pointed to the roof: "This house is not very high, and I can jump up without a ladder. Do you think I can be afraid?"

Xiao Huan blinked: "Then why did you bring the ladder?"

Su Yu brushed off his sleeves, but did not answer.

Seeing Su Yu's trickery, the little girl felt a little hurt, she pouted and said, "Do you think Xiao Huan is stupid?"

Su Yu smiled and said: "After all, I'm a new son-in-law, so I should keep a low profile as much as possible to suit my current status. If I climb and jump, it will be seen by outsiders that I'm showing off my abilities. It's not appropriate."

"Oh..." Xiaohuan giggled and said, "My uncle can jump on such a tall building? Isn't my uncle so powerful? It's no wonder that my uncle is the son of General Su Changsheng. Does the tiger father have no dogs?"

Su Yu nodded.

After the minor repairs were completed, Su Yu sorted out the account books after transferring the accounts.

Looking at the sundial, it was still early for dinner, so Su Yu decided to go for a walk.

But Xiaohuan reminded Su Yu that he should take a look at the family law.

Su Yu said, it won't be too late to see at night.Why, are you still worried that Tang Ling'er won't pass the exam?

Xiao Huan smiled and said: "I can't say for sure, the lady used to test us often.The lady is strict and wants to beat hands.If you make a mistake in a word, you will get a typo.

Su Yu pretended to be surprised and said he was very scared, but he had already walked out of the mansion with his hands behind his back.

Xiao Huan had no choice but to follow behind.

As soon as the two walked out of the princess mansion, they saw a Langzhong riding a horse and carrying a medicine box, rushing to An Guogong's mansion in a hurry.Langzhong was accompanied by Shi Jinchong, the captain of the national cavalry school.

Su Yu was puzzled: "Is there no doctor in the Duke's mansion?"

Xiao Huan said: "Yes, but the one who ran in just now is Doctor Chen, who specializes in treating bruises and is very powerful. Last year, my eldest grandson broke a bone while riding a horse, and he was the one who repaired it."

"Oh, Physician Chen..." Su Yu frowned, "Physician Chen rushed to the Duke's mansion in such a hurry, why?"

Xiao Huan said vigilantly: "Grandpa, if it's someone else's house, Xiao Huan can inquire for you. But it's better for us to inquire less about the Duke's mansion. It's very taboo."

In fact, if Xiao Huan didn't remind her, Su Yu wouldn't inquire about it either.

But Su Yu would not think that Xiao Huan was talkative because of this, but nodded and said: "Well, Xiao Huan is right. Xiao Huan is a smart ghost, and if you find anything wrong in the future, you should remind me .”

The little maid giggled.

Su Yu turned around and looked into the distance: "Then let's walk around in the workshop, let me familiarize myself with the environment first. I heard that [-]% of the people in this workshop are relatives. I want to see, such a small workshop That's how business is done."

Xiao Huan said with a smile: "Then let me take my uncle to the west. There is a small market in Qinghuafang. There are clothing shops, rouge shops, saddle shops, grocery shops, etc. There are also hawkers."

"Okay, let's go and have a look."

Su Yu was originally a generous person, but now that he has money in his pocket, he is a bit extravagant.

No, after only half a circle of shopping, I bought a lot of things. Xiao Huan was a little hard carrying her bag and holding the box.

When they came to the door of the tailor shop, Su Yu wanted to tailor a suit of clothes for Xiao Huan.

Xiao Huan said that there is no need to do it, but she couldn't hide the desire that burst out in her eyes.

So Su Yu pushed her in and asked the tailor to measure Xiao Huan.

Su Yu sat in the chair.

Not long after, Xiaohuan happily stood behind Su Yu, very cute.

Strange to say, the more Su Yu treats Xiao Huan, the more Xiao Huan feels unbearable: "Young master, you should save some money. If you continue to spend like this, the spare money in your pocket will be used up."

Su Yu smiled and said: "Don't panic. Tian Jing told me that I have five taels of silver every month. Five taels of silver is 50 silver coins. I only spent 20 yuan today. I can afford it."

Xiao Huan refused, and said, "Twenty silver coins are two thousand dollars. Many people only earn that much in a month. But my uncle spent it all in one day."

Su Yu smiled and said, "Last night, I heard someone say that I was stingy behind my back. Now that I have money, I have to act quickly. I will prepare gifts for each of you, so I will spend more. From now on, I won't spend more money every day. That’s how money is spent.”

Hearing this, Xiao Huan was a little anxious, and kept something on her lips, but it was hard to say it.It's just that he secretly hates Tang Xiaofei's open mouth.
