Jade Space of Rebirth

Chapter 87 Continued from the previous chapter

Tang Zhi didn't feel anything wrong when she was wronged by her master, but Tang Zhi couldn't help but feel a little touched when she heard what her elder brother said. She knew that her elder brother usually pays attention to the rules of respecting teachers and respecting morals. In the conflict, instead of saying that he was ignorant, he comforted her, which made Tang Zhi's whole body warm up.

Especially there are a few people who care about themselves, it seems that the depression all morning has dissipated, and Tang Zhi is in a good mood now.

Tang Xin also came over at this time, comforted her sister in the same way, then hugged Tang Zhi distressedly, and her eyes were red.

"Brother, take me and my brother home after dinner!"

"Brother is not hungry, so I will send you back. I want to tell my mother and Aunt Cao about this, so that they can make up their minds. My little sister can't be wronged in vain!" Tang Qi said with a straight face.

"Thank you, brother!" Tang Zhi's eyes became warm when she heard the words.

On one side Tang Zhi was wronged and wanted to go home, on the other side the Tang family also had something to do, of course it wasn't a bad thing, but it wasn't a good thing either.

As soon as Mrs. Cao went to Qiguofang today, he was stopped at the door before he stepped into the shop. The other party said that he was from the Xiao family, and their young master invited Cao Guanshi to Pinxianglou for a while.

How is the relationship between the Tang family and the Xiao family? Cao's heart is like a mirror. When she heard that Young Master Xiao wanted to invite her, she became suspicious, but the other party was the Xiao family. Even if she didn't like it, she couldn't refuse like this. Nodding his head, he followed the man without entering the shop.

After Mrs. Cao was invited into the Pinxiang Building, she was taken directly to the upper-class room on the second floor. When she entered, Young Master Xiao was standing by the window looking at something. A servant reminded him that someone was coming, so he looked over. Then he invited Mrs. Cao to come in with an easy-going manner.

Seeing that Young Master Xiao wasn't sitting down, Mrs. Cao followed him by the window, thinking what Young Master Xiao seemed to be looking at just now, so she couldn't help but also glanced out of the window, but she immediately understood What is it, the eyes flashed a gleam of clarity.

In the end, it was Young Master Xiao who spoke first, "Guan Cao seems to be very popular in the Tang family. I heard that Guan Shi has made a deal with Laifu Inn. Not only did he supply them with vegetables, but he also provided them with free fruits from Qiguofang. I don’t know if what I’m saying next is right?”

What Young Master Xiao said was straightforward, which surprised Cao, who was ready to play Tai Chi with him, but she still had a frank expression, "Young Master Xiao is really well informed. Shopkeeper Li found his concubine and said that he wanted to cooperate with our Tang family, and I saw that this business would be beneficial to our Tang family, so I agreed, but now it seems that the business of Laifu Inn seems to be doing well!"

Young Master Xiao looked at the unsmiling woman in front of him who made people feel underestimated. He didn't know where the Tang family found the talent, but his gaze was not impolite. It's not an ordinary person to get these businesses, and I admire it very much, but I don't know if the Tang family has thought about letting Qiguofang's green vegetables be fully launched in Teng County?"

Young Master Xiao obviously turned the corner to ask whether the Qingcai of Cao's Tang family would continue to cooperate with the restaurant, but Cao thought in his heart that it was not due to her that Qiguofang could be as good as it is today. It's Zhi'er's ability, but she naturally won't reveal a word in front of outsiders, she just smiles politely.

"To tell you the truth, Young Master Xiao, the Tang family will never refuse door-to-door business. It's just that Laifu Inn is the first time to cooperate with the Tang family. Promise, to be honest, knowing that the business of Laifu Inn is so good, the Tang family also regretted this promise, but since things have happened, the Tang family will naturally not be the villain who regretted it, so those other businessmen who have approached the Tang family now , also temporarily refused, but I believe this time will not be too long!"

Cao's remarks not only made the Tang family the wronged party, but also indirectly answered Young Master Xiao's question, which can be said to be a tactful refusal.However, Young Master Xiao obviously came from the storm. After listening to Cao's words, apart from doubts in his heart, his face was as calm as water.

Young Master Xiao didn't show any anger until the end, and after chatting with Mrs. Cao about Qiguofang, Mrs. Cao said that there was still something important to do, so he asked someone to send Ms. Cao away. faux pas.

Mrs. Cao has a lot of impressions of the Xiao family, but she has to admit that this young master is different. Regardless of whether his performance is superficial or not, at least he is a modest gentleman.

Thinking that Tang Zhi had always been at odds with the Xiao family, he must have told her about this when he went back today, and asked her about her plans by the way.

What Cao Shi didn't expect was that when she went back to Tang's house after busy work at noon, she found that Tang Zhi had returned, not only her, but all four children of Tang's family.

Cao's first thought was: Could it be that Lan'er didn't help a few children prepare meals in the morning?

But when she got closer and found that the four of them were silent and had unusual expressions, Cao sensed something, and she didn't say anything. First, she asked if they had eaten.

Because Tang Qi was concerned about where his sister had eaten, Tang Xin took it for granted, not to mention Tang Zhi and Tang Zhi. When Cao Shi asked, several of them immediately covered their stomachs and didn't need to answer. I know the answer.

It just so happened that Lan'er also came back, and at the same time brought back the news that Mrs. Li still won't come back at noon today. She was taken aback when she saw the young masters and ladies coming back, but she heard that they didn't eat, so she was busy cooking.

Since Xiaotao's face was covered with gauze, she has almost stayed in the room for the past few days. Then she heard Tang Zhi and the others' voices coming out of the room. Hearing that the young masters and ladies hadn't eaten, she hurriedly prepared snacks for them to eat. People pad their stomachs.

Tang Zhi looked at the gauze on Xiaotao's face and realized that it was almost time to put on a show. She would have died of pain if she had been living wrapped up like this for more than ten days. She thought about going to the master to remove the gauze tonight. , After all, you still need a personal cover.

Since Dr. Wang stayed at Tang's house for the Chinese New Year, he almost regarded Tang's house as his other home. Apart from staying in the hut in the alley, the number of times he came to Tang Zhi's house was obviously several times more. Thinking about it, the master didn't seem to go up the mountain these days. , Tang Zhi felt that people should be at home at that time.

Because Lan'er was worried that the young master and miss would be hungry, she cooked several times faster than usual, so she arranged five or six dishes on the table in a short while, and watched Tang Zhi and the others finish eating before eating with Xiaotao with the rest.

Because Tang Qi and Tang Xin still had classes in the afternoon, Tang Zhi persuaded them to go back quickly, and promised that she would talk to Aunt Cao about it.

Because it was made in front of Cao Shi, Tang Qi felt at ease, and told Cao Shi to help him take care of his younger siblings, and then went out with Tang Xin.

"Zhi'er, did something happen in the academy?"

Tang Qi and the others left, and Tang Zhi was also arranged by Cao Shi to be taken by Lan'er to play. Only Tang Zhi and Cao Shi were left in the room, so they began to question.

Tang Zhi didn't intend to hide this matter from Mrs. Cao. When she asked, she told the whole thing verbatim, including when she finally met the dean and the dean asked her to be his... student affairs.

"It's really unreasonable. Zhi'er is so well-behaved on weekdays, but those masters embarrass you like this for money and power. It's outrageous!" Sure enough, Cao Shi is more concerned about Tang Zhi's wrongedness than Tang Zhi's later opportunities. Originally thought that Tang Zhi's character was too mature and had friction with the students, but who knew that it was the master who had the friction with him, and immediately showed anger.

"Aunt Cao doesn't need to be angry. There are very few people in this world who can resist temptation. I don't worry about leaving the classroom, and I don't regret having a conflict with my master. It's just the big brothers and sisters. If you say I let them Will changing schools now affect them?"

It was this incident that worried Tang Zhi. If it hadn't been for what happened later, she might have more than half the chance of asking her elder brother and elder sister to change schools.

"Aunt Cao has heard about Cai Zisen, he is a good person!" Cao Shi also recalled what Tang Zhi said later, she thought for a while before saying this.

"As Zhi'er said, there are very few people in this world who can resist the temptation, so we can't blame the entire academy for the fault of one person. Since Dean Cai intends to accept you as an apprentice, not everyone has this opportunity. , Aunt Cao hopes that you will seriously consider it, and it is best to stay!"

Naturally, Mrs. Cao didn't dare to say how famous Cai Zisen was in the capital, not because she was afraid that Tang Zhi would be blinded by the other party's reputation, but she wanted Tang Zhi to decide for herself. After all, whether she likes a place or not is not decided by others. of.

"Does Aunt Cao want to stay?"

Even Cao Shi said this, Tang Zhi's heart was biased towards the college again, but she didn't say her decision right away, and went straight to ask Li Shi's opinion in the evening.

Mrs. Cao nodded. She must know Mrs. Li's opinion on this matter, after all, she is Tang Zhi's mother.

"By the way, there is something I almost forgot to say. Today, the young master of the Xiao family invited me to the Pinxiang Tower. His tone seems to want to cooperate with the Tang family!" Cao Shi suddenly remembered this, and hurriedly told Tang Zhi .

"The Xiao family?"

Hearing this surname, Tang Zhi, would make her whole body feel uncomfortable, but Young Master Xiao actually found Aunt Cao. Could it be that... Her silent support for Laifu Inn had an effect?
Thinking of this possibility, Tang Zhi couldn't help but her eyes lit up, did the fish finally take the bait?

Then he looked at Cao Shi and asked, "Then how did Aunt Cao answer him?"

"What else can I say, let's just say that the Tang family promised Laifu Inn that they promised that Qiguofang's green vegetables would only be supplied to their family for a period of time. I didn't say the specific time, so I'll ask you and see what you decide to do! "

At the end, Mrs. Cao added, "This business is actually quite cost-effective to do!"

Tang Zhi can understand why Cao said this. After all, the Xiao family is a big family. Even if they only give him all the supplies, the Tang family can make a steady profit, and the profit will be greater than that of any other family. However, she still cares more about the money. Two frictions with the Xiao family.

Tang Zhi has always been a protectionist, not to mention being bullied by the same person no less than three times. This time, the incident at the Laifu Inn was premeditated by her for a long time, and she definitely wouldn't let it go like this. After all, her hatred for the Xiao family is , 'This hatred lasts forever', if they want to relieve her hatred just by making them anxious, it is obviously impossible.

As soon as Cao Shi saw Tang Zhi's shining eyes, she knew that this girl must be paying attention, she just smiled and didn't say anything. She didn't know how much Tang Zhi loved her family. He won't let the Xiao family go so easily.

Sure enough, Tang Zhi thought for a while, and the answer to Cao Shi was very simple, just three words, "Procrastinate first!"

She just didn't say yes or no, and made Xiao's family anxious. Of course, they don't need to care about this business at all. It depends on whether he can withstand the temptation. Tang Zhi decided to focus on training Laifu in the future. Inn, you know she knows more than just fruit platters...

In the evening, Mrs. Li came back. At this time, Tang Qi was also out of school. As soon as the brothers and sisters got home, they remembered their sister first. Seeing that Tang Zhi was fine, they were relieved.

It just so happened that Mrs. Li came back not long after. Tang Zhi, who had been waiting for a long time, did not wait for her brother and sister to urge her, but lowered her head and told what happened today.

Surprisingly, it was not the same as Tang Zhi guessed. Li Shi didn't seem to care at all about how Tang Zhi talked back to her master, but instead worried about her daughter. Fortunately, she knew that Tang Zhi would come back at noon. Whenever she was wronged too much, she was relieved. .

After thinking about it for a while, Tang Zhi understood the reason why Mrs. Li didn't reprimand her. Maybe Mrs. Li had the habit of living in the village. It can be said that a master who has read poetry and books is more important than his own daughter, so he respects his teacher It's a light look, not to mention that the other party is a wife she has never met, this feeling is even worse.
