Chapter 154 The Liao family was plotted and Xin''an borrowed money
At the gate of the Marquis'' Mansion, Cao Gui, who had just arrived at Tang Mo''s hands, stood up straight. When he saw Tang Mo, he saluted, "Second Young Master, the trip is ready."
"You guys are."
Tang Mo said that he did not mean to let the two go together.
Deng Fang said: "From today, the two men of the second son will be the guards of the second son, and they will protect the safety of the second son."
In this way, Tang Mo became more and more sure that the two of them were here to monitor him, but since he came, he would dare to use it, and it would depend on who was better.
"Then let''s go."
The weather today was good. It rained lightly last night, wetting the ash on the ground. The air was cooler than before, but the wind was blowing was indescribable.
With two decent and grand escorts, Tang Mo became more and more likely to go out.
The carriage walked to the streets where the Liao family was, and after walking for a moment, the sound came from outside the curtain, saying that there were many soldiers in the alley.
Tang Mo lifted the curtain and saw many soldiers standing or sitting in the direction of the Liao family.
Xin An also saw it, "Is this here to cause trouble?"
Tang Mo shook his head, and the carriage quickly arrived at the gate of the Liao family, but saw that the gate of the Liao family was closed. Several soldiers wearing armored armor stood at the door holding spears and came forward to explain their purpose. Soon someone went in through the side door to report.
"Please wait for a moment for Mr. Tang."
Through the opened curtain, you can see clearly the scene at the gate of the Liao family. The Liao family is prosperous, and the mansion is naturally not small. After several generations of people, the main entrance of the Liao family is also wide and majestic. There are many soldiers sitting under this majestic stairs, and there are even a few large pots made of bricks and stones next to it. The surroundings are already black, and it is obviously cooked.
Looking at those soldiers, they are not young. The clothes on their bodies are either ripped or patched. You can tell at a glance that they are not doing well.
"What''s the situation?"
As soon as he opened his mouth, a squatted man was about to step forward. Before he could speak, he was retreated by the soldiers holding a spear. The guard said, "They were all people under the old man''s previous command. They collided with the second young master. Please forgive me."
A short sentence can make people guess a rough idea. This is a time when the emperor and the minister of the Liao family died suddenly. The people below him are probably headless. Liao Zhi became the head of the family and may not have accepted these people. These people can only come to the Liao family to ask for an explanation.
Tang Mo turned his head and looked at Deng Fang and Cao Gui. Their faces were not very good at this time. They were also following the old marquis. Fortunately, the old marquis arranged a way out for them before they left. Although the marquis is not bad for them now, he can gradually feel his impatient.
There is no war or sudden accidents, and these people are useless, but because of government orders, they cannot leave the master''s family and can only be trapped in this.
Someone came out of the side door soon, and it seemed like a manager. He trotted and bowed in front of the carriage, "Give up to the second son of Tang and the second young lady."
"The head of the family is waiting for two people in the courtyard."
Tang Mo got off the carriage, turned around and helped Xin An down, "Lead the way."
In total, Xin''an stepped into the Liao family''s gate for the first time. As soon as he entered the door, he felt an indescribable feeling of crowding. The mansion looked quite small, maybe there were too many servants or soldiers during the walk.
After a while, the couple saw Liao Zhi. At this time, Liao Zhi and Mrs. Liao were talking. There were several account books on the table next to them. The maid serving him was holding the book in her hand. Xin An glanced at Tang Mo. It seemed that the time was not the time to come today.
There is something wrong with the Liao family today, but I am afraid it will still happen suddenly.
"Young Master Tang and the Second Young Master are here?" Mrs. Liao put down the booklet and smiled, "The hospitality is not good."
Tang Mo bowed, "I don''t know if there is something wrong with the mansion today, but my husband and I don''t know if there is a place to help."
Liao Zhi invited the two of you to sit down, "I originally invited you today, but I didn''t expect something difficult to come. I forgot to send someone to inform you. Today I am afraid I will be sorry."
"Where is the commander, I''m most unexpected. When I came, I saw a lot of soldiers at the door. I heard that they were soldiers from Mr. Liao''s hands earlier. Are you here to explain today?"
Tang Mo thought to himself, if Liao Zhi encounters trouble, he can help again, and this trip will be worth it today.
Liao Zhi didn''t say it clearly, but after accusing of this matter, Mrs. Liao thought for a moment and spoke to Xin''an, "There is nothing to hide in this matter. It''s true that those people were soldiers in the mansion, but now they can''t use so many people, so they can only ask them to return home. But they have worked hard for many years and can''t just pass them away at will."
"Mrs. Second Young Master, I want to ask for help."
The account book on the table has explained many problems, and Xin An asked, "Madam Liao doesn''t make up money?"
The other party nodded, "I really have spent too much money recently, and I can''t make any moves for a while. I want to borrow 10,000 taels of cash from the Second Young Master. I''ll need it today. I wonder if it''s convenient?"
"Don''t worry, I''ll give it to you by the market."
Why not look for Tang Mo?
Mrs. Liao, who is also a businesswoman, believed that Tang Mo and Liao Zhi were similar, and they were not rich, but they were not rich.
Xin An smiled and said, "What does it mean to be profitable? It is common for mutual turnover in the business world."
For her and Tang Mo, lending 10,000 taels can bring the relationship between the two families closer, so why not?
He turned his head to Tang Mo and said, "Then I will go back and get 10,000 taels of silver notes to the money house to exchange them into cash and send them here."
Tang Mo stood up and said to the few people, "I''ll go back."
Liao Zhi nodded, and seeing Mrs. Liao''s gaze with a little apology, Mrs. Liao smiled and stood up, "Sister Xin, this front yard is messy, let''s go to the back yard to talk."
"Will it disturb Sister Xu?"
As soon as the title changes, the relationship between the two changes. Mrs. Liao said, "Today''s matters can be solved. Since there is money, the rest will be simple and will not affect our conversation today."
Wherever the person was invited, there was still a reason to invite others back. Mrs. Liao led Xin An out of the house. Liao Zhi breathed a long sigh, and then his eyes became cold little by little. If nothing unexpected happened, something happened to someone in the Liao family soon.
In the yard of the backyard of the Liao family, because outsiders cannot enter at will, it is quiet and spacious. A stone table in the yard was already filled with fruits, snacks and tea, "Sister Xin, please sit down."
Mrs. Liao smiled, "I''m fortunately thanking Sister Xin''s help today, otherwise I would have had a headache for a long time."
"I will send someone to you to your house as soon as possible."
She spoke rashly when the two were not familiar with each other, and she had to force her to speak. Of course, she was sure that 10,000 taels would be out of reach for others, but it was not difficult for Xin''an.
After sitting down, Xin An picked up the tea and smiled and said, "It''s just 10,000 taels. It''s just when Sister Xu will be convenient for me to send it."
With the wealth of the Xu family in Linzhou, it is naturally impossible to lose this little money. I also think that the Xu family must have a lot of dowry, but today I forced me to borrow money. The Liao family is probably not a bottomless pit.
