At Qiushi Courtyard, Aunt Wang brought Fang Dada. Tang Mo was still in a good mood. Xin An coughed lightly and said, "Get ready."

Tang Mo rubbed his face quickly, cleared his throat, and walked out calmly. Fang Da and others in the courtyard greeted Tang Mo, and then handed 30% of the silver to Tang Mo in front of Tang Gang, "This is what the master prepared for the eldest lady and the son-in-law. The master and the mistress are looking forward to the son-in-law and the eldest lady getting along well, and wish the son-in-law a bright future."

He did not say that it was the 30% of the silver that originally belonged to the Marquis' Mansion. After all, many people have many opinions. But seeing that the son-in-law's eyebrows were raised with joy, he should know it.

Tang Mo was so excited and nervous at the moment that he wanted to take it, but he didn't forget to ask politely, "How can I do this?"

"A gift from an elder cannot be refused, so just accept it, sir."

Fang Da turned aside and pointed to several large boxes on the other side. "These are the local gifts from Huaijiang that the master and the mistress prepared for the son-in-law and the eldest lady. They contain the latest clothing materials, tea leaves, tea porcelain, and other things for appreciation. Please have a look, son-in-law and the eldest lady."

There were six large boxes, each of which was piled full. Xin An just took a quick glance and asked Aunt Wang to sort these things into the warehouse, without saying a word about giving some to Tang Gang.

"Thank you for your hard work, Manager Fang, Aunt Wang..."

Aunt Wang smiled and gave the prepared reward money to Manager Fang and the people who carried the box. After everyone thanked Manager Fang, he left with his people. At this time, Wang came and pretended to be surprised when she saw Tang Gang, "Why is the Marquis here?"

That look seems to be asking you why an old man is in his daughter-in-law's yard?

Tang Gang was holding back his anger, but there was nothing he could do. His recent days had been really unhappy. It could be said that he had not had a few happy days since his two sons got married. It seemed as if everyone was against him.

"Second brother, come with me to the study."

Tang Mo nodded happily, "It just so happens that my son also has something that he would like to ask his father for help. Father, please."

Tang Gang was slightly startled, but still walked out with his hands behind his back. Tang Mo winked at Xin An and followed him. Wang Shi didn't know that 30% of the Xin family's money had been given to Tang Mo. She only knew that all the boxes of the Xin family had been carried to Qiushiyuan. She was worried that the stingy Tang Gang would have an opinion, so she hurried over. Xin An invited her into the house and told her what happened.

"It was my father's idea. Uncle Fangda has already explained the reason to my father."

Wang was stunned for a moment, then her eyes were filled with smiles, "I was wondering why your father came to Qiushi Courtyard, it turns out it's for this matter, this way you will have more money to use, and it will be more convenient to do things."

Xin An raised his eyes and said, "Mother, father will be unhappy, right?"

"What does he care about?"

Wang Shi was getting more and more dismissive of Tang Gang. "That was given to him by the second boy's father-in-law. It's reasonable and logical. There's no need to worry about it."

"But I don't know how to repay your father's kindness."

Xin An said: "My husband's growing success is the greatest reward to my father. My father is counting on this son-in-law to expand the Xin family's business to the capital in the future."

"It should."

Several people have seen more than 30,000 taels of silver. Wang naturally knows that she will have to get something in return for taking the silver. She decides to give Tang Mo a private reminder later that he must not follow his father's old path and always think that he should take other people's things for free. How can such a relationship last long?

Xin An smiled and said that he would give her some of the newly arrived earthenware, but Wang said that it was not necessary. "There is still a lot of tea left from your gift, and the fabric has not been made into clothes yet. You and your wife need to exchange gifts now, so keep it for yourselves."

"but..."

Wang hesitated a little, "If it's convenient for you, you can pick two to give to your uncle. He likes to drink tea."

"There must be one portion for my uncle, and one for my cousin. He can drink it himself, or give it to his classmates or teachers. It will be useful in the end."

"I have to ask for some from my second uncle, and I have to give some to my cousin's wife. She gave me grapes several times before."

Wang was filled with emotion again and said that she would go back to burn incense to the Bodhisattva and ask him to continue to bless them.

In the study, Tang Mo chose to take the initiative and said, "Father, Commander Liao recently gave me a task. I need your advice on some things."

Tang Gang......

"you say."

The capital city needed to expand a market to meet the daily trading needs of the people. Thirty-eight households needed to be vacated, one of which was the ancestral property of a senior official in the court. "They refused to agree no matter what. The Ministry of Works had no choice but to push the matter to the Northern Army. Commander Liao then handed the matter over to his son. His son had already gone to see Master Zhang, but he drove his son out as soon as he heard the purpose of the visit."

"He said that the day his ancestral property was demolished was the day he and his son died together."

In a peaceful and stable era, the Beiya Army was only doing menial work and suffering humiliation.

Tang Mo sighed, "I really have no choice but to come and ask for help from you, father."

Tang Gang sat there without saying anything, because he knew that things were not easy to deal with. Fortunately, Tang Mo had not counted on him in the first place, but just wanted to use this matter to shut him up. "If father also felt embarrassed about his son, he would think of another way. Fortunately, father-in-law is thinking about his son, and his son can be more relaxed now that he has enough money."

Tang Gang suddenly realized that he had been tricked and wanted to use this to shut him up. "I told you that the Xin family is the money bag that your grandfather left for the Tang family. It is not yours alone."

"Father is joking."

Tang Mo looked calm, "My son knows the importance of this and doesn't dare to have such thoughts, but I have no reason to refuse my father-in-law's kindness. I can only work harder and strive to be successful so that I can repay my father-in-law."

"Besides, my son has a job now. If I do a good job, the mansion will be honored. It is also reasonable for me to get a reasonable share of the mansion's money. Don't you agree, father?"

Tang Mo met Tang Gang's gaze without fear. Tang Gang had no reason to get angry when his authority was challenged. Tang Mo didn't care what he thought. "My elder brother and I are both our father's sons. A father should give his son some chances."

Tang Gang still didn't ask him to hand over the money. He just looked up at him and said, "It's a good thing that you are ambitious. If so, your father will give you a chance."

Tang Gang also has to consider his reputation, and he is also a father. He will not do things too much to avoid leaving room for gossip. What's more, Wang is now very unforgiving and many things in the mansion cannot be done without her. If he completely annoys Wang, it will be detrimental to his eldest son.

In the end, all the pressure fell on Tang Rong. It was common for brothers to fight with each other. He was confident that the eldest son he had carefully raised would never be defeated by the second son. At the same time, this was also an opportunity to test Tang Rong. He wanted to make Tang Mo a whetstone for his eldest son.

Therefore, when talking about Tang Mo to Tang Rong, he was full of praise, "You are indeed different after getting married. You are humble and filial. Every day when you come back, no matter how late it is, you will go to pay your respects to your grandmother. Your grandmother is full of praise for you."

"I originally thought that he would suffer in the Beiya Army, but he turned out to be doing well. This shows that he has some abilities. You are brothers, so if he encounters any difficulties in the future, you should do your best to help him."
