After the rebirth of Madam Hou Clan, her heart was sealed with cement

Chapter 360 A strange young man, a caravan from another country

A few days later, when Tan Zhixu was inspecting the village of Hou Mansion, as she expected, she rescued a strange man who was bullied by gangsters.

Although the man looked embarrassed, there was an air of heroism between his eyebrows. When he saw Tan Zhixu, he was stunned, as if he had seen him somewhere before.

"Madam, you...why do you look so familiar?" The man endured the pain and asked doubtfully.

Tan Zhixu took a step forward, looked at him carefully, and felt that he was familiar, but she was not eager to reveal the mystery, but smiled calmly: "I am just an ordinary woman, the young master may have seen someone similar somewhere. "

"No, I'm sure that we are not done yet." The man said firmly. Although his body was scarred, his eyes were shining with bright expectation. "If I can get out of this predicament, I will marry you in an eight-carat sedan chair." Girls get started.”

Guyu's eyes widened when he heard this, but he saw that his girl was still as calm as water, and just nodded slightly: "Young master, take care of yourself, if fate dictates, we will meet again."

The man burst into tears of gratitude and promised Tan Zhixu that he would recover soon and resume their relationship.

Later, with the help of Tan Zhixu, the man was successfully treated and gradually regained his strength.

During this period, the old lady and Song Ling'er did not find any trouble. On the contrary, the business in the capital and northern Shaanxi was booming under Tan Zhixu's rectification, and everyone in the Hou family was full of praise for this.

Especially the informants and troublemakers who were investigated and punished all privately lamented the second lady's skill and resourcefulness.

One day, while Tan Zhixu was handling accounts in the backyard, Gu Yu hurried over with a nervous look on his face: "Girl, the old lady sent someone to send a message, please come over."

Tan Zhixu knew it well, put down the pen in his hand, gently smoothed the corners of his clothes, and walked towards the main hall with a calm smile.

The old lady was sitting in the middle of the main hall, Song Linger was also beside her, and the atmosphere seemed quite solemn.

The old lady watched Tan Zhixu walk in, and slowly said: "Zhixu, you have taken care of the affairs of the shop in an orderly manner recently, and I am very pleased. But Ling'er said that she should have taken over these things, you see this How should the matter be resolved?"

Tan Zhixu bowed and saluted, and said in a calm tone: "Mother, managing the shop is not about fighting for power, but about who can bring real benefits to the Hou family. Now the business is booming and the family business is stable, which is the best proof. As for handing over the shop. , as long as it is beneficial to the Marquis Mansion, I have no objection to it."

After hearing this, Song Ling'er's face turned red instantly, but she couldn't find any words to refute.

The old lady looked at the scene in front of her, with a flash of appreciation and thoughtfulness in her eyes. After pondering for a moment, she made a decision.

"In this case, we have decided to let Zhixu continue to manage these shops. Ling'er, you should also learn more from her and work together for the Hou Mansion."

As soon as the old lady finished speaking, Song Ling'er's face became even more ugly, but she could only suppress her anger and lower her head in agreement.

Back in the room, Gu Yu curiously asked about his next plan, and Tan Zhixu smiled mysteriously: "If you play hard to get, the eldest lady will show her flaws. As for the young master of the Marquis Mansion, maybe he can really become a chess piece for us." "

The moonlight was shining outside the window, the courtyard was quiet, and Tan Zhixu's eyes were shining with wisdom, as if he had seen various changes that might occur in the future.

And all of this will unfold one by one under her strategizing.

Tan Zhixu told Gu Yu that the young master he met in the Hou Mansion was not an ordinary person. He was arranged by Song Ling'er. If they had any contact with him again in the future, Song Ling'er would definitely find something to do with him. Hearing Tan Zhixu's words, Gu Yu's face turned ugly. She thought that the man was an accidental encounter, but she didn't expect that Song Ling'er would even arrange this.

Tan Zhixu didn't say much, just smiled. Then she thought that according to the memory of her previous life, a caravan would appear in the capital in a few days. The business opportunities brought by this caravan were endless, and she was bound to win this opportunity. .

A few days later, Tan Zhixu secretly met with a businessman from the capital at her residence. The caravan that the businessman mentioned was exactly the one she remembered that could bring huge business opportunities. She calmly talked with the businessmen, showing her shrewd and capable side, and successfully negotiated cooperation matters.

"Madam is really very discerning. The goods brought by this caravan are really rare. If it weren't for madam's unique insight, others might have taken the lead." The merchant said to Tan Zhixu with admiration on his face.

Tan Zhixu smiled slightly, his eyes flowing: "We are mutually beneficial, why not? Our entire Marquis Mansion will fully cooperate with your caravan's trading activities here."

At the same time, the young master of Zhuangzi gradually recovered and came to visit Tan Zhixu as promised.

He was dressed in plain robes and looked very heroic. As soon as they met, he bowed deeply to Tan Zhixu and said, "Thanks to the girl for rescuing me that day, Xiaosheng has recovered as before. I am here to fulfill my promise."

Tanzhi Xu Geng returned the favor, gentle and generous: "Young Master, there is no need to be polite. Saving people is just a matter of effort. As for the rest, everything depends on fate."

After hearing this, a trace of disappointment flashed in the young master's eyes, but he quickly returned to normal and said sincerely: "Even if fate has not come, I am still willing to ride for the girl to repay the grace of saving her life."

This scene happened to be caught by Song Ling'er, who sneered secretly in her heart and decided that this was a good opportunity to expose Tan Zhixu's unruly behavior towards women.

The next day, Song Ling'er deliberately arranged a tea party and invited many ladies from famous families to meet the young master.

During the dinner, she intentionally or unintentionally mentioned Tan Zhixu's "friendship" with the young master, trying to arouse everyone's criticism of Tan Zhixu.

However, Tan Zhixu responded calmly, not only cleverly clarifying the misunderstanding, but also taking the opportunity to announce a cooperative relationship with the Beijing Caravan, which immediately attracted the attention and admiration of the audience.

"Ling'er, you seem to have some misunderstandings about me."

Tan Zhixu chuckled and looked at Song Ling'er, "This young master and I just met by chance, and what I value is how to revitalize the family business, not personal relationships. Now, the cooperation between the Hou Mansion and the Capital Caravan It will open up new business opportunities, and that’s what we should focus on.”

As soon as these words came out, all the eyes originally focused on private gossip turned to the upcoming business opportunities, and Song Ling'er's carefully planned frame-up instantly came to nothing.

Faced with Tan Zhixu's huge efforts, Song Ling'er gritted her teeth but had no choice but to awkwardly go along and talk about new business opportunities.

"It seems that the eldest lady also has unique insights into the family business, so let's hope that this cooperation can bring greater prosperity to the Hou family." Tan Zhixu raised a meaningful smile at the corner of his mouth, with a firm and profound gaze. .

Tan Zhixu deliberately brought the topic to Song Linger.

Song Ling'er, who was thinking about how to frame Tan Zhixu, was stunned for a moment.

At this time, a smile flashed across Tan Zhixu's face.

She knew that Song Ling'er didn't know anything when asked, so if she was rumored to be untalented today, it would have nothing to do with her.
