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

The old lady was clamoring to go to Huaijiang, but how could Wang dare to agree?

The old lady said it’s a good idea. I promise you to go, and you promise me to go. If we agree to each other, then it’s done.

Wang could only tell Tang Gang about this, and Tang Gang immediately objected, "No, absolutely not."

In his opinion, the second son's wife was just nosy. Since Xin Kuan had already come to the capital, why did she need to go back? If she really missed home, she could just let Xin Kuan bring the family to the capital once a year. Why did she need the second son to take leave specifically to accompany her? Wouldn't that be a waste of time?

Not virtuous.

He only dared to think about these words in his mind, as he could imagine how Wang and the second son would bully him if he said them out loud. Even the second son's wife was afraid that she would make things difficult for him. He could see that he no longer had any status in the inner courtyard of the marquis's mansion.

"I'm going to go anyway, you can figure out what to do with the old lady yourself."

Wang made her attitude clear. "Don't mention that the second son's wife can only go back to her parents' home once in a while. My parents' home is in the capital. How many times can I go back in a year?"

"And how many times have I left the capital since I married you? This time, I must go out for a walk no matter what."

"you......"

Tang Gang was very angry, and finally caught Tang Mo who came back in the middle of the night, saying that it was all his fault and asked him to settle it himself.

“It can’t be settled.”

Tang Mo is a bachelor, and he said he didn't invite them, "Grandma and mother want to go, but I don't allow them?"

"What right do I have to not allow it?"

"Both of them are my elders, and I have no choice but to obey them. But my father is different. One of them is your mother, and the other is your daughter-in-law. You are easy to talk to, so go ahead."

"I'm tired, I'm going back to sleep."

After saying that, she left, leaving Tang Gang alone and angry. She turned back to persuade Wang, saying that as long as she didn't go, the old lady wouldn't go either. Wang rolled her eyes at her and said, "You're just going to make me suffer in the end?"

"I've spent most of my life thinking about this and that, and I just want to go to the Huai River. Is that so difficult?"

Unable to persuade Wang, Tang Gang could only find an opportunity to convince his mother. She was quite old, how could she bear the hardship?

"How old am I? How old am I? Has the earth buried my nose?"

"I just want to go once. What's wrong? I ask you what's wrong? If you think I can't stand it, wouldn't you try to make the carriage more secure and more comfortable?"

Tang Gang had a lot of grievances. It was the first time at his age that he had been treated like a half-cooked rice. He was not treated like a human being.

But the old lady really couldn't go to such a far place. Not to mention whether it was necessary to give the Xin family such a big face, the old lady's body couldn't bear it. Now that Tang Rong had just taken office and Tang Mo was at a critical time, even he himself could not accept mourning for three years at this time.

The old lady must live longer.

In the end, he could only play the role of a kind father, saying that Tang Mo still had to be busy with his work and had to hurry on the way back and forth, and could not take his time. If the old lady went there, he would naturally have to take care of her, which would delay things.

"How about my son accompany you to stay at the farm for a few days?"

"If you want to go to the manor, I know a manor with nice scenery. Let's go together, mother and son?"

The old lady struggled for a moment and finally agreed, but she was unhappy. She didn't want to admit that she was a trouble and needed care everywhere, but her son had said it so bluntly, how could she say no?

"Go out more while you're young. Don't wait until you're my age when no place is suitable for you."

This is what the old lady said to Wang the next day. Wang agreed very much and expressed regret that the old lady could not go with her. She promised to accompany her to stay at the farm for a while after returning.

The old lady said, "If you are interested, please accompany me to my parents' home while I am not too old."

"I haven't been back for almost 30 years, and I can hardly remember the scenery of my hometown."

Wang felt sad, and then she remembered that she had never seen the old lady go back to her parents' home since she married into the Marquis's mansion. Her son did not say anything about sending her back, and no one from her parents' home came to pick her up. "I discussed it with the Marquis, but I didn't think of it until my mother mentioned it. I am really ashamed."

"I'm not saying this to embarrass you, you guys can see if it's okay, I'm also taking good care of myself, it would be great if I could go, but I can't go back..."

“It’s okay if I can’t go back.”

Her parents had long passed away, and her nephews and nieces were not close to her. It was meaningless to go and see them, but now that she was old, she always thought of the days when she was a child and was in the arms of her parents, her house, her fields...

Always thinking about the past.

Wang went back and scolded Tang Gang, "Have you ever thought of sending the old lady back to her parents' home in all these years?"

"You haven't visited your grandparents yet, have you?"

"She was married in, not sold, so why can't you think of sending her back to see the world?"

Tang Gang was stunned. He refused to admit that he had a problem and blamed Wang. Wang snorted coldly, "Did the old lady give birth to me after ten months of pregnancy?"

"You don't even feel sorry for your own mother, how can you count on me?"

Tang Gang stopped talking and considered the possibility of taking the old lady back.

At this moment in Qiushi Courtyard, Tang Mo pulled Xin An to talk about the old man's frustration, and he was very happy, "He deserves it because he can't please anyone."

Xin An nestled in his arms, lacking interest. All this chaos diluted her joy of going home.

"My father will try to persuade my grandmother, but I don't have the courage to take her to Huaijiang."

Tang Mo said he didn't dare, "Grandma is old, unless I have enough time to take her with me."

Not noticing Xin An's unhappiness, he pulled the quilt over her and said, "Go to sleep. We'll be busy tomorrow. I'll have a good sleep when we get to Huaijiang."

The two of them fell asleep in each other's arms. The next day, Xin An got the news that the old lady would not go to Huaijiang. Before she could try to make the old lady happy, Tang Gang came back and asked Wang to help him pack his luggage, as he also wanted to go to Huaijiang.

When Wang heard the news, her face fell on the spot. She wanted to go to Huaijiang just to see different scenery and not have to worry about trivial matters in the mansion or take care of this and that. Now the whole family has to relax?

"Why do you want to go?"

"This is what the emperor meant. Don't ask. Tell the public that I was invited by the Xin family to go to Huaijiang to experience the local customs and people."

After the morning court session ended today, the Emperor summoned Tang Gang to his study to discuss matters. He secretly appointed him as the Salt Inspector and asked him to go to Huaijiang to find out the details of the local salt merchants on the pretext of visiting his relatives, and to raise one million taels of silver to prepare for possible war.

The wealth of the salt merchants exceeded the emperor's imagination. According to the Yao family, the rich and powerful in the mansions of several major salt merchants in Huaijiang used golden beads to shoot slingshots. Now that he knew about this, there was no reason not to make those salt merchants bleed a little.

Wang told Xin An the news, and Xin An was even more surprised than she was, "So, what should Grandma do?"

Because of this incident, he persuaded others not to go, but he decided to go again.

Wang felt a headache. She didn't want to go anyway. "Let's see what your father and grandmother decide."
