After losing her husband, she turned the little villain of the Hou family into a big boss

Mrs. Tang was not surprised at all when she heard Tang Shuyi's words, she knew it would be like this, and after saying hello, the two of them talked about other things.

Tang Shuyi told her about going to Xiaoyao Palace yesterday. After hearing this, Mrs. Tang also wondered why the concubine was so kind to Tang Shuyi and the others, and said, "I'll talk to your elder brother about it when I go back, and let him talk to his father." Think about it, is there any connection between Xiao Huai and Xiaoyao Wang?"

Tang Shuyi nodded, "You don't have to worry, I can see that the princess has no malicious intentions."

"Okay," Mrs. Tang said: "Then your guild hall can be put on the agenda. After you tidy up the house, the weather will be warmer, and you can hold a banquet and post messages to the wives and ladies of various families in Beijing. After a banquet, everyone in Shangjing will know your guild hall.

Looking back, let your elder brother take the lead in organizing an elegant gathering, and invite all the famous literati and students in Beijing, and it is best to invite Fang Daru as well.Two banquets have passed, and your guild hall's designated business is doing well. "

After listening to her words, Tang Shuyi smiled and said, "I think so too, but I need you and the second sister-in-law to help hold the banquet."

"You just say so when the time comes." Mrs. Tang said briskly.

The sister-in-law and sister-in-law talked for a while, and Mrs. Tang left. She still has to receive Mrs. Li today.After returning to the Duke's Mansion, she went to Tang Shubai's study first, and told him about Tang Shuyi and asked Qi Liangsheng to reject him.

Tang Shubai sighed after hearing this, "I don't know how sad Xunzhi will be when he finds out. I can see that he really likes Shuyi."

Mrs. Tang was also a little disappointed, "It can only be said that the two are not destined."

Although she felt that it was inappropriate for Tang Shuyi to marry Qi Liangsheng now, if the status quo did not change, it would be good to have a man as her companion.At the very least, there is someone to talk to when you are alone, and someone to take care of you when something goes wrong.

But there is no way to have the best of both worlds, unless Xiao Huai is not dead.

Tang Shubai stood up, "I'm going to find Xunzhi right away."

As he spoke, he walked towards the bookshelf, and Mrs. Tang hummed, but stood there without moving.Seeing this, Tang Shubai said: "Madam, go and do your work."

Mrs. Tang looked at him with a half-smile, which made Tang Shubai a little nervous, "Is there... anything else?"

Mrs. Tang glanced at the corner of the bookshelf, then turned and left with a soft snort.Tang Shubai touched his nose, walked to the side of the bookshelf, bent down and took out a jar of wine from the gap between the vase and the bookshelf.This is what he treasured, if he didn't think that Qi Liangsheng would be hit for a while, he would not take it out.

He was ill once two years ago, and after he recovered, the doctor asked him to drink less, so Mrs. Tang was very strict about his drinking.He carried the wine out of the study openly. Anyway, Madam already knew that he had hidden the wine, so there was no need to hide it.

When he arrived at Qi's mansion in a sedan chair, the young man at the door saw him and immediately went in to welcome him.Tang Shubai walked in with the wine in his hand, and soon arrived at Qi Liangsheng's study.Qi Liangsheng's eldest son, Qi Heyuan, was also there, and when he saw him, Qi Heyuan quickly stood up and saluted.

Qi Liangsheng guessed that Tang Shubai was here to answer, so he sent Qi Heyuan out, leaving only two people in the room.Qi Liangsheng was a little eager to know Tang Shuyi's answer, and since he and Tang Shubai had a relationship since childhood, he didn't pretend to be calm in front of him, and asked directly, "How is it?"

Seeing him like this, Tang Shubai sighed again.He put the wine on the table and said: "Let someone bring some appetizers over, drink and talk."

Although Qi Liangsheng was in a hurry, but Tang Shubai said so, he had no choice but to quickly order people to prepare some appetizers, then looked at Tang Shubai and said, "Can we talk now?"

"Xunzhi!" Tang Shubai organized his words in his heart and said, "You and Shuyi are not suitable."

Qi Liangsheng only felt that a hanging heart cracked with a snap, and he said incoherently: "Why...why is it not suitable? We are in the right family, about the same age, I... I am not bad in appearance, and I have an official position Not low, I... I still like her, I really like her..."

"Xunzhi." Tang Shubai stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder, saying: "At first, I also thought that if you were married, Shuyi would have something to rely on."

"Yes!" Qi Liangsheng said immediately.

"But think about it carefully," Tang Shubai looked at him and said, "Shuyi's life after marrying you will definitely not be as easy as it is now."

"How... how?" At the end, Qi Liangsheng's voice was full of uncertainty.

At this time, the appetizers were brought up, and after the young boy set them up and walked away, Tang Shubai poured him a glass of wine and said, "A family like us naturally has no shortage of money. The Yongning Hou's family is well-off, and Shuyi's current life is considered rich. It's the same when I get to your home.

What's more, although Xiao Huai is gone, Shuyi has less reliance, but now she has the final say in the Hou Mansion, she can do whatever she wants, and she is free, is it okay after arriving at your house? "

Qi Liangsheng's face was slumped, and he remained silent.

Tang Shubai didn't wait for his answer, and said again: "If she comes to your house, let's not say that she has to ask your opinion on something, just say that your mother should be respected every day. When people get along with each other, there are always bumps and bumps. , She has bumped into your mother, no matter who is right or wrong, it is always annoying."

Qi Liangsheng's back was slightly bent, but he remained silent.

Tang Shubai sighed and continued: "And your children, she will be a stepmother at that time, it's not good to treat them lightly, no matter how smart she is, she can handle them well, but she has to work hard to deal with those things, right? And you The two concubines, she has to deal with it..."

Qi Liangsheng's back was completely bent, and Tang Shubai said again: "Shuyi's life is not easy now, but there are no parents-in-law at the top, and the children below are a bit naughty, but the biological ones, whether they are beaten or scolded, the children know That's for their own good. Besides, look at the things that Shuyi came in to do, the scheming and means are no worse than yours..."

"Shubai, stop talking, I'm delusional."

Qi Liangsheng's heart was broken at the moment, this should be the first time he felt the feeling of failure and being hit.Although his family fell into decline when he was young, his family is still relatively wealthy compared to ordinary families, and he has never experienced hardship in life.

Moreover, he was smart since he was a child, talented in reading, and his imperial examinations were smooth sailing.After entering the officialdom, he can't say that everything went smoothly, but he didn't experience too many twists and turns.

For Tang Shuyi, he is really happy. He longs to be with her, just like he longed for the success of the imperial examination and the rejuvenation of the family.Ever since he fell in love with her, he has imagined many scenes of getting along with her. He believes that after they are combined, they will be able to sing harmoniously.

But Tang Shubai's words made him realize that he was taking it for granted. He took it for granted that his life would be difficult after his husband died, and he took it for granted that he could give her a better life.
