Reborn and married to uncle, husband and wife teamed up to abuse scum.

There are many things to do in the new year, and we need manpower. Xin An's meaning is very simple, "Choose more if they are suitable, don't be afraid to spend money, you have to make people wait for things, don't let things wait for people."

Nan Feng nodded heavily, and finally said that the farmkeeper Yang had brought 8,000 kilograms of grain today, "It has been moved to the granary in the mansion according to the young lady's instructions, and three locks have been added."

"Okay, have someone keep an eye on it. Don't use it without my permission."

"Yes."

Just as he was about to turn around, Xin An said, "From today on, you will be the manager of my outer courtyard. From now on, all matters outside will depend on you. I will ask Aunt Cuiping to notify everyone tomorrow morning."

Nanfeng was overjoyed at the sudden promotion. She recalled that last year she was still thinking about how to become the second master's concubine, but now she has become the manager of the outer courtyard?

She immediately kowtowed to Xin An and said, "Young Madam, I will always remember your kindness in promoting me. I will go through fire and water for you."

"Get up. You have changed a lot in the past year and have grown very fast. I believe you will be even more capable after becoming the manager."

Nanfeng stood up excitedly, wishing she could kneel down to her again. She felt dizzy when she went out.

Tang Gang waited until he returned home before he ordered Steward Zhang to invite Xin Kuan to have dinner together in the evening. However, Steward Zhang was disappointed because Xin Kuan had to have dinner with the head of the Yao family and several officials from the palace in the evening and was busy.

"tomorrow?"

"Master Xin said that he will visit General Xu tomorrow. General Xu has invited him to have a drink in the evening, so I'm afraid he won't be free."

"The day after tomorrow?"

Steward Zhang's voice weakened a little, "The day after tomorrow Commander Liao will host a banquet for Master Xin, and the Second Young Master will be there."

"In addition, Minister Fang of the Ministry of Revenue has also made an appointment with Master Xin..."

Tang Gang's face became more and more ugly, and Xin Kuan also got better. As soon as he arrived in the capital, people lined up to invite him to dinner and drinks, but he, the real relative and master, could not get a number.

"Tell him to come over tomorrow at noon."

Manager Zhang was about to speak but stopped talking. At this moment, he met Tang Mo who had just come back and was about to ask Tang Gang something. Seeing that Tang Gang's face was dark again, he asked, "Who has made father unhappy again?"

Manager Zhang breathed a sigh of relief. The Second Young Master had arrived, and the Marquis could only swallow his anger.

Tang Gang didn't say anything, just asked him what he was doing there.

"What are you saying? Can't I come to see my father if I have nothing to do?"

"Why, yesterday I was your proud son, but today I am not anymore?"

Tang Gang had no idea what to do with Tang Mo who was like this. His anger at not being able to date Xin Kuan also dissipated a lot. He just felt very upset at the moment, "If you have anything to fart, just fart."

"Put it in the study. I'll put it while I sit down."

Manager Zhang tried hard to hold back his laughter. Tang Gang took a deep breath, cursed him in his heart, and then followed him into the study.

In the study, Tang Mo, who was not sitting cross-legged and slouching, spoke very seriously and asked Tang Gang to invite a gentleman for him, who must be a general with rich combat experience.

"If I don't learn a little more, I won't be able to do this job anymore."

Tang Gang was confused by this. It was just about managing the public security of a few streets, but it had something to do with the art of war. "You want to fight?"

"That's what I said. I'm a decent person."

Tang Mo said that Liao Zhi recently took him to the Ministry of War and took him to the camp outside Beijing. "Yesterday, he specifically found me and asked me to strengthen my study of military tactics. He didn't tell me the details, but I think it's not a bad thing to learn it."

"Is there a war somewhere?"

Tang Gang frowned slightly, "There has been some rumors recently. We have not had a war in Daqian for more than ten years, and the border is peaceful. However, Langri Dynasty, which is adjacent to the northwest border, suffered a locust plague in most of the country last autumn, and almost no crops were harvested."

"It is common sense to launch an offensive against foreign enemies in this situation."

"Years ago, the Emperor ordered the Northwest General to guard the area strictly. Northwest General Yan Shen was also a fierce general in his early years. With him in charge, there should be no problem. Could it be that Liao Zhi's actions are due to something going on somewhere else?"

As he was thinking, a crisp sound of "slap" startled him. Tang Mo said nonchalantly, "My leg was itchy just now, so I patted it."

He has forgotten that Xin An lived several decades longer than him. He should go ask her.

"Whatever the reason, he shouldn't do it without a purpose. It's a good thing to learn more anyway. Who do you think is suitable, father?"

Tang Gang said that General Zhang was the right person. "He fought with your grandfather all the way here, and now the Zhang family still stands tall in the court. The old general is very capable. You should make preparations. Next time I have a day off, I will go to the Zhang family with you to finalize the matter."

"Row."

Tang Mo leaned back and crossed his legs, "Father, have you thought about how to talk to my father-in-law? You can see that he is very popular now."

"It's definitely not possible to keep going on like before. The relationship needs to change, and it would be best if it could become a cooperative relationship."

Tang Gang didn't say anything. He was still thinking about it. Tang Mo smiled and said, "Father, if you haven't thought it through, I can give you a suggestion."

Tang Gang raised his eyes, and Tang Mo said, "Second Uncle wants to cooperate with father-in-law to open a sugar shop in the capital. In the future, Commander Liao and others who need a large amount of sugar can directly come to Second Uncle."

"Father, why don't you choose to support my second uncle? This is what my grandfather thought back then. My second uncle is in business and helps father with money. Father protects my second uncle, and the two brothers support each other."

"Father can also talk to my uncle and ask him to support the people in the clan starting this year and have them send money to the Marquis' Mansion every year. This way it will be convenient for everyone."

"As I said before, if you don't take advantage of the power you have, you will never be able to wait for others to help you in times of need."

"My second uncle and the people in the clan are our own family. Blood ties are the most reliable relationship. No one can dig them away. My father-in-law can only be the icing on the cake."

Instead of relying on outsiders, it is better to cultivate your own people. Whether it is his second uncle's family or the people in the clan, they are all worth cultivating. It is truly good for everyone to be well. What's the point of just being glorious yourself?

Tang Gang nodded and adopted his suggestion almost on the spot. He had also been thinking about what he said recently. "It's easy to deal with the clan, but I'm afraid your second uncle will have to get through your grandmother."

They're all excuses!

Tang Mo thought that the old lady was willing to sit down and eat with his uncle's family, and she had never forbidden them to interact with his family. Her attitude was very clear. "Why does father have to ask grandma to give a clear answer?"

"Let's just follow our plan and don't embarrass grandma."

Tang Gang still felt that he should talk about it and get the old lady's consent. Tang Mo sneered, "Father is afraid that one day grandma will ask about it and doesn't want to be scolded by grandma, right?"

He doesn't even want to take this little responsibility and wants to get himself out of it. No wonder Tang Rong is like that. These two father and mother are exactly the same. They want benefits but don't want to take responsibilities. They just hope that someone will bring benefits to them and coax them into accepting them.

Today, things just didn't go as he wished!

"We've been interacting with my second uncle's family recently. What did grandma say? Is she unhappy?"

"We didn't say anything and just did it. The benefits belonged to the Marquisate. Grandmother turned a blind eye and let it go. She maintained her pride. We also got the job done. Why do you have to ask? If you ask, how would you expect Grandmother to answer?"
