Reborn and married to uncle, husband and wife teamed up to abuse scum.
Chapter 177: Tang Rong is surrounded by wolves
As soon as Tang Gang left, Tang Rong's expression changed. He sat down slowly with a gloomy face. He felt that his position was in jeopardy. He guessed that Tang Mo must have received help from Xin An. He also knew that the marriage exchange was a great humiliation for Xin An. He just didn't know whether Xin An helped Tang Mo to seize his position as the crown prince or to take revenge on him.
He couldn't help but think that if nothing had happened on the wedding day, he would have been the one to receive Xin'an's full support, and Tao Yiran, who was used to getting into trouble and embarrassing himself, would have dragged Tang Mo into the quagmire and made it impossible for him to get out, and would not have become a threat to him at all.
Moreover, a woman like Tao Yiran, even if she became Tang Mo's wife, as long as he was willing, Tao Yiran would...
He shook his head to get rid of the terrible thought. He didn't want to think of Tao Yiran in such a bad way, mainly because he didn't want to make himself feel like a joke.
"Xin An..."
He repeated the name twice, wondering if there was any possibility of persuading him to defect away from Tang Mo.
Without Xin An's help, what else can Tang Mo use to compete with him?
"Qingmo."
Qing Mo, who was waiting outside the door, walked in quickly.
"Send someone to keep an eye on the next door. No matter what Tang Mo does or where he goes, he must report everything in detail."
Qing Mo agreed readily, with the bitterness in his heart boiling up. Nanfeng asked him to keep an eye on the prince, and the prince asked him to keep an eye on the second young master.
So, what should he do?
Become a double agent?
How about asking Nanfeng to raise the price?
Many things have a second chance. He was extremely conflicted when he betrayed Tang Rong's whereabouts for the first time, but he was much more relaxed the second time. The most important thing was that Nanfeng was generous.
He had an older brother who fell into the water when he was young and was injured. He could not do heavy work, so he used his only energy at night. In less than six years, he had three nephews.
Almost all the benefits he earned over the years were given to his family as filial piety, and most of them were used to support his brother's family. However, he was not young anymore, and the prince was reluctant to mention giving him a maid. He could only think more about himself, and wanted to save some private money, marry a wife and raise children.
"Why do you need so much silver?"
Aunt Cai is in charge of Chunhua Courtyard now. Qing Mo has to ask her for money when he wants to do something. After explaining the reason, Aunt Cai gave him money. She only gave him two taels instead of five taels. She also scolded Qing Mo, "The prince needs money for everything he does. You should also consider him more. He is just keeping an eye on someone. He doesn't need that much money. Spend it sparingly."
"What aunt said is true, but aunt doesn't know that this money can't be spent, and the people outside won't do the work."
Qing Mo still wanted to fight for it, "Auntie has been away these days, and the young lady is unwilling to spend the money. Without money, nothing can be done. How many things have been delayed for the prince?"
"How about you give me a little more?"
He thought that Aunt Cai cared about the prince the most, and Aunt Cai was easy to talk to as long as it was about the prince.
But he had no idea that Aunt Cai now had the same idea as him. Originally, her husband and son worked in the front yard, and the job was considered lucrative, but recently they were discovered by Steward Zhang somehow. Steward Zhang asked the father and son to make up for the embezzlement as soon as possible, otherwise he would report to his wife.
If the late madam was with them, they would certainly not be afraid. Unfortunately, the late madam had a bad fate and could not enjoy such a great blessing. She passed away early.
The money they had saved over the years had already been used to build their family business and for daily expenses. How could they replenish it quickly?
Only Tang Rong’s wallet.
Aunt Cai refused to give it to him and even scolded Qing Mo. Qing Mo, who was still struggling in his heart, soon compromised and decided to go find Nan Feng.
After he left Aunt Cai, she frowned and put one or two taels of silver into her own purse. But they needed to make up several hundred taels. How long would it take to get the money together by scraping together so little by little?
Aunt Yue walked in gracefully. Tao Yiran was going back to her parents' home at an uncertain time, and there was no mistress in charge of the courtyard. As a concubine, she had some ideas. She thought Aunt Cai would help her, but she didn't know that Aunt Cai was worried about money and couldn't care about her at all.
"Aunt, I heard that the young lady seemed to have gotten into trouble this time and hid back in her mother's house."
As long as you are willing to spend money, you can get the news. Aunt Yue said the news she got, and then said, "When the Marquis came earlier, his face was not good. The trouble caused by the young lady must be not small. She hid back to her mother and did not consider the prince at all. It's a pity that the prince still trusts her so much that he even let her control the key of the late lady's dowry box."
She wanted to make up something that Tao Yiran said was unfair to Tang Rong, but Aunt Cai cared about Tang Rong the most. When she looked up, she saw that Aunt Cai's eyes lit up. She thought she had hit the nail on the head, so she added fuel to the fire and said bad things about Tao Yiran. After a while, Aunt Cai said a few words casually and sent her away.
As soon as she left, Aunt Cai could no longer suppress the smile on her lips. Although the late lady's dowry was not the most abundant, it was not small either. If one or two items were missing, it would not be discovered. Even if it was discovered, it could be said that the current Madam Wang had tampered with it.
Can......
His eyes looked towards the main room. Tao Yiran had left, but Aunt Liu was still there, and her maids who came with her as a dowry were also still there. The key must be in the main room, but how should he start?
Tang Rong, who was forcing himself to sit in the study, was still thinking about his next plan, little did he know that he was surrounded by wolves!
That evening, Xin An learned that Qing Mo was going to raise the price, and also knew the reason. The corners of his lips curled slightly. Tang Rong had indeed set his sights on Tang Mo. Fortunately, he had the foresight to buy off Qing Mo.
"Give it to him and tell him that the Second Young Master's whereabouts are normal. He is either practicing martial arts, drinking with friends, or visiting relatives. There is nothing else."
Nanfeng asked if he wanted to do something more, such as taking Nanfeng's family. Xin An shook his head, "Didn't you say that there is a weak elder brother? Think about it, Qing Mo is not easy either."
"Tell him that if I do the job well, you can ask me to ask a miracle doctor to treat his brother, but if you dare to betray me, be careful of his family."
"Remember, attacking the heart is the best way."
Nan Feng smiled and nodded, "I know."
She was sure that her words would touch Qing Mo's heart.
Xin An is now very satisfied with her ability to do things. "Find a way to bribe the Tao family and see what Tao Yiran is doing."
Nan Feng said, "I have already arranged for someone to take care of this matter."
The young lady usually keeps an eye on the next door. Even if the target person leaves, the news cannot be cut off. Otherwise, how can she become the most capable person under the young lady?
"Well done."
"Go get some extra money from Aunt Wang, and don't be stingy when you're out."
Nan Feng smiled and said, "I haven't spent all the money I took out from Aunt Wang last time. I'll go back and withdraw more money after I've spent it all."
Xin An nodded, and after Nan Feng left, she instructed Aunt Wang, "I heard that Manager Zhang spoke highly of the Second Young Master many times in front of my father. Pick out some nourishing herbs and send them to him. Tell him that I thank him and that the herbs are for Old Madam Zhang to nourish her body."
Her father once said that 90% of the people in this world can be driven by money, and as long as the gift is given properly, there is nothing that cannot be accomplished.
