Chapter 743: Chapter 743: You Move Back to the Old Courtyard


    “I’m back.” Tong Sang replied in a calm tone.


    “Tired, aren’t you? Come sit down and rest.” Li Rou walked over with Tong Xiaoxing and Tong Xiaoyue, her expression was very gentle, “Darong, quickly serve the food.”


    The delicious food Tong Xingda had ordered from the Jíwèi restaurant was waiting in the kitchen for Tong Sang.


    Tong Darong answered and moved the table to the courtyard next to the other table, creating arge one. Then he quickly served the food onto the tes and set the table.


    “All sit down, all sit down, eat, eat.” He called out.


    The whole family gathered around, including Zhu Hongyun.


    Ever since Tong Sang and Qiao Xiaomai had nearly demolished her house in Zhu Vige, she had been left with quite a shock. Seeing Tong Sang now, she still felt timid.


    She chose to sit as far as possible from Tong Sang. As she saw Tong Eng wanting to get closer to Tong Sang, she hastily pulled him back, signaling him with her eyes to sit next to her.


    Tong Eng caught her eye signal and,ughing merrily, sat down next to her.


    With a sidelong nce, Tong Sang had a look at Zhu Hongyun and Tong Eng, and then at Zhang’s family and Tong Xingda, sighing inwardly.


    At the moment of his sess in the imperial examination, these people had put aside their previous grievances.


    It was just as well they harbored no grudge, he just wanted to live a peaceful life.Upd@te by novg0.co


    Seeing Tong Darong pouring wine, a smile appeared on his face.


    “Come on, let’s the men have a drink.” Tong Xingda lifted his bowl and called out.


    Tong Sang picked up the bowl in front of him, clinked it against Tong Xingda’s, Tong Tiehu’s, and Tong Darong and Tong Eng’s, then drained it all in one gulp.


    The spicy liquor slid down his throat and he put down his bowl, picked up his chopsticks and grabbed a bite of food.


    “Sang, what are your ns for the future?” Seeing him put down his bowl, Zhang’s family hurriedly passed him a piece of meat.


    “Continue my studies in preparation for next year’s pce examinations.”


    “Now you’re a schr, a different status, you need to pay attention to things you previously ignored.” Zhang’s family refrained.


    “Like what?” Tong Sang asked.


    “For example, reputation.” Zhang’s family put down her chopsticks and said, “You’re a schr. People from the nearby viges should address you as Schr Sir. With this status, how can you continue to live in the Qiao family’s ce?”


    “You are a Tong family member, the head of the Tong family, the face of the Tong family. If you live in the Qiao family, where would we put the face of our Tong family? You are not a son-inw to the Qiao family, you married a daughter of the Qiao family.”


    “Isn’t it because we are poor? It’s morefortable living in the manor than in the old house.” Tong Sang replied.


    “Not poor, we have money. If you want to livefortably, your mother and I will renovate the old house tomorrow, and make sure you are satisfied.” said Zhang’s family eagerly.


    “Is the money for renovating the houseing from the sixteen hundred taels that Xiaomai gave?” Tong Sang asked.


    @@novelbin@@


    “I have savings, enough to renovate the house.” Zhang’s family replied.


    Previously, she had taken out her savings to buy a gold hairpin for Qiao Xiaomai, but Qiao Xiaomai refused and returned the one hundred taels to her.


    One hundred taels is more than enough to renovate the house.


    Tong Sang’s family name is Tong, and he is now a schr. Originally, the Tongs were a well-respected family in the vige. So, it doesn’t look good for Tong Sang to be living in the barren farnd of the Qiao family.


    Absolutely not!


    First, they needed to bring Tong Sang back to the vige and have him stay in the old house.
