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

"Even if they weren't real mother and daughter, a change in their accents would reveal something was wrong."

"It's easy for you in the capital. You can blame everything on Huaijiang. But you won't be able to explain it to your father-in-law and mother-in-law."

Tang Mo held Xin An's hand and said, "Although it is said that a gentleman should not talk about strange things, but things about gods and ghosts are often hard to explain. For example, our fate can only be said to be arranged by God."

Xin An also meant this. "After this matter is explained clearly, my mother will help explain any unreasonable things, and she will not tell anyone about it. If there is anyone in this world who will not harm me, it is my parents and my brother."

Tang Mo was immediately dissatisfied with what he said, "Am I not trustworthy?"

"Trust, trust, go to sleep."

These words sounded somewhat perfunctory. Tang Mo looked as if he was deeply hurt. "I knew you were a heartless person. You don't have me in your heart at all. My heart... hurts so much."

Xin An laughed and slapped him, "Are you ashamed to argue over everything? Do I show that I don't trust you enough?"

Tang Mo smiled and came forward, hugged her tightly, and quickly touched her lips, "I only have you and mother, you can't be so heartless."

As he spoke, he lowered his head again and used his arms to pull her closer to his arms. Xin An was aroused by her, but then he suddenly realized that he was in his mother's house. He panted and pushed her away, "Hold back."

Tang Mo pinched her waist and whispered, "When we return to the capital, we will have a child, first a girl, then a boy. I think it's very interesting that you and my younger brother get along well. You protect him and he protects you, but he is afraid of you and listens to you. Our future children will be like this too. The eldest sister-in-law is much more dignified than the younger sister-in-law, and she won't be easily wronged in the future."

Xin An asked with a smile, "Do you still know the difference between an elder sister-in-law and a younger sister-in-law?"

Xin An thought that Tang Mo's job had really changed him a lot. Not only had he become more motivated, but he also knew a lot about various things.

Tang Mo smiled, "What's so difficult about this? My mother is the eldest sister. Do you think my uncle might be arrogant in front of her?"

"People out there say that a respected elder sister-in-law is an annoying younger sister-in-law. Although it's one-sided, it does make some sense."

Xin An hooked her arm around his neck, disagreeing with what he said, "Is it possible that the older sister was more sensible earlier and took on the responsibility of teaching her younger brother early on, so she is more majestic, while the younger sister is protected and just a little more spoiled?"

"How can you still have a problem with your sister-in-law? The girl is spoiled by her parents and her brother at home, but now that a sister-in-law comes, she becomes a nuisance? This is not a right idea."

Tang Mo felt that this was also true. He thought about his future daughter who was living well at home, and when his sister-in-law came, she was picky and disliked him. "It's better for the elder sister to give birth to a younger brother. If the younger sister-in-law is not good, the elder sister can teach her."

Xin An pinched his ear and said, "What's wrong with my sister-in-law? Are you afraid of being bullied so you want to bully others?"

"That was not what I meant?"

Tang Mo felt like he had reached a dead end and couldn't explain himself clearly, but he just didn't want to be bullied!

Xin An burst out laughing, "Don't think about these things. Your words don't count. How much can you control?"

Tang Mo also laughed, thinking that he had gone insane just now, "I want to protect my child because I cherish him too much. You are right. My decision on whether it is a boy or a girl does not count."

He hugged the person in his arms tighter and buried his chin in Xin An's neck, "As long as it's your child, it's fine."

In his previous life, he had longed for his son's admiring eyes, longed for his son to happily throw himself into his arms, longed for a loving father and a filial son, but unfortunately...

"When I get home from work in the evening, will my child be waiting for me on the steps? When she sees me, will she open her arms and run into my arms? I will hold her and ride on the horse, let her sit on my shoulders, and take her to see the lanterns. The three of us will go together..."

Beautiful wishes always make people happy when they imagine them. "In a few years, I will hold your hand, you will hold the child, and I will have a little one sitting on my shoulders, and we will be a family of four..."

Xin An also began to fantasize, with the corners of his mouth raised high...

Thunder roared and rain began to fall. Tang Mo reluctantly returned to his room. Before leaving, he asked Xin An if he could go out and find an inn to stay for the night. Xin An smiled and pushed him out, "I'm not as thick-skinned as you think. Don't even think about it."

"Not even one night?"

It's a pity that he has to be a monk for several months at such a young age. What a nice night it is. It's raining outside. No one outside can hear any noise. He can be more unrestrained. Thinking of this, he held Xin An's hand tightly and lowered his voice, "I'll take you to the hot spring later. You can stay overnight."

Tang Mo's eyebrows lit up immediately, "Are we going tomorrow?"

"Calm down, we have important things to do tomorrow."

As she said this, she pushed the man into his room and closed the door, then quickly returned to her own room. She knew that drunk men were something she should never get involved with.

The next morning, Xin Kuan sat and ate breakfast leisurely. When Tang Gang came over, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Aren't we going to the government office?"

"Not in a hurry."

He greeted Tang Gang with a smile, "Today's breakfast is good. The chef has made some new snacks. Try them."

There was another table full of various breakfasts, but today there was no bird's nest, instead there was a bowl of porridge. Tang Gang complained that the quality had dropped too fast, as he had thought that the Xin family had delicacies from land and sea for every meal.

As soon as he sat down, Xin Kuan served him some porridge, "Try this porridge and see if it's fresh."

The porridge looked like ordinary porridge, with white fish slices visible in it. Tang Gang took a spoonful of the porridge and his eyes lit up, "It's really delicious."

Xin Kuan said that the fish came from a fish spring at the foot of a mountain in the Huai River. "This fish lives underground all year round. The water is clear and sweet, and the meat is very delicious. It only needs a little refined salt to season it when used to make porridge."

Tang Gang nodded, "After all, it's you Huaijiang people who know how to eat."

He gave in, accepted it, and was ready to lie down and enjoy it, without feeling jealous.

After eating and drinking, Xin Kuan went to feed the fish, and then walked out of the door in a leisurely manner. Tang Gang could tell from this gesture and muttered, "A cunning businessman."

Doctor Mu De'an of the Ministry of Revenue originally planned to give the salt merchants of Huaijiang a warning. In his eyes, no matter how powerful they were, could they be more powerful than the officials of the imperial court?

If the court needs money, you should pay it obediently. If you refuse, you are disloyal to the court.

So he deliberately calculated the time when he went out, thinking that he would be the last one to arrive so that the salt merchants would have to wait for a while.

As a result, when he arrived with his men, less than 30% of the salt merchants had arrived. His face suddenly darkened, "Why, they were not notified yesterday?"

"Your Excellency, everyone has been notified. Perhaps I am a little late because there are too many things to do."

The official from the government office seemed respectful, but in fact he was a little perfunctory. "Why don't you wait a little longer? I'm sure they will be here soon."

"Go ahead and urge them. This shows that you don't take me seriously."
