肖府

The little old lady has been very proud of herself recently.

Mother Li gently kneaded her shoulders with a smile on her face: "Old madam, our third master is one of the best among men. Not only is he as handsome as Pan An, but he is also very talented. What's more, he is young. It is normal for you to be a second-rank official and attract the favor of Miss Xu Mansion. You should rest assured this time."

In order to better assist King An, before the death of the late emperor, King An originally wanted to raise Xiao Yuankai's official position to the second rank, but Xiao Yuankai was not able to do anything, not only made no achievements, but also hindered a lot.

But he couldn't bear the good luck and met the help of noble people. Recently, An Wang's property has been booming. Not only Mrs. Xiao is smiling, but also Xiao Yuankai is high-spirited.

King An secretly promised him many benefits.

There are rumors in the Xiao family that Xiao Yuankai wants to marry his wife.

And this person is the second richest businessman in Southern Hebei, Xu Lin.

The eldest brother Wu and the second brother Jiang have recently gotten together and left their servants alone. Regardless of her image, Wu curled her lips and spit out the tea foam in her mouth.

He said disdainfully: "In addition to marrying rich girls one after another, how can the Xiao family achieve anything else?"

It's not that she looks down on him, her husband is just incompetent, otherwise he wouldn't have been living in the Xiao Mansion for so many years.

The second wife, Xiao Yuanlang, had been suppressed by the old lady for a long time and had no chance of turning around.

However, the worse the trouble in the third room became, the more exciting the show became for her.

As long as the Xiao Mansion is not brought down, the more rich girls the third wife marries, the better off her life will be in the Xiao Mansion.

Of course, the premise is that you can't be like that Mr. Hua, who refuses to let any money out from between his fingers.

Thinking of this, Wu's lips curled up for some reason, and she said to Jiang, who was doing embroidery: "Second brother and sister, who is more powerful, the Hua family or the Xu family?" That Xu family is said to be a money-maker. An expert, under her leadership, the Xu family went from being an unknown wealthy businessman to becoming the second richest businessman in Southern Hebei in just five years.

She was told that the third child was also lucky enough to be favored by rich girls one after another.

Jiang shook her head: "Sister-in-law, this is not what we should discuss."

The third bedroom doesn't matter to her. As long as the Xiao Mansion is still there, she can live a safe life.

Wu pushed her hand: "Second brother and sister, you are too simple-minded. In my opinion, if there is no third child, this Minister of Household Affairs should be your husband."

The embroidery needle in Jiang's hand accidentally moved and pricked her left index finger. Feeling the pain, she suddenly lowered her head and looked at the pricked finger without saying a word.

Then he gently sucked the blood droplets that emerged, and then continued the movements of his hands.

Xiao Yuanlang was ranked second in the rankings that year, but Mrs. Xiao did not let Xiao Yuanlang enter the court as an official on the grounds that Xiao Yuankai entered the court first and was worried that the Xiao family's great success would attract trouble.

Of course, Mrs. Xiao had arranged for him to run some businesses in the mansion.

It's just that all the businesses he ran were losing a lot of money soon after. Mrs. Xiao sighed, and she couldn't blame him, so she had to let him rest in the mansion. After all, Xiao Yuankai took care of the entire Xiao mansion.

Xiao Yuanlang was deeply shocked at that time, and he continued to enjoy writing poems and paintings.

The Jiang family was chosen by the Jiang family after Xiao Yuanlang won the lottery, and because of his handsome appearance, he came to propose the marriage in person.

At that time, the old lady was unwilling to accept the offer. She had already found Xiao Yuanlang's appointment with the Zhuo family, a well-known wealthy family in the capital.
