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

Aunt Liu went to invite Xin An to dinner, but found nothing. "The Second Young Master's wife went out and said she was going to bring food to the Second Young Master."

"Send food?" Madam Tao raised her eyebrows. "Does the Beiya Army not provide food?"

Of course the Beiya Army provided meals, and Xin An knew that, but she pretended not to know and went there with her men, carrying a full food box. She waited for a long time at the door before being allowed in.

It was dinner time, and Tang Mo was also in the dining hall. A group of noisy old men were eating and talking. When they saw a beautiful woman standing at the door, they all looked at her. Tang Mo quickly stepped forward and stopped her to the side, "Why are you here?"

Xin An acted out his acting skills and spoke uncomfortably, "I brought you food. I didn't know they provide food here."

She seemed to be nervous as she held Tang Mo's hand and pinched it hard, "Did I embarrass you?"

Many people looked at her with playful smiles. Tang Mo, feeling pained, quickly grabbed her hand and said, "No, I forgot to tell you that we provide meals here, so you won't starve."

"Brother Tang, this is your fault. You even made my sister-in-law run all this way in the hot sun. Why don't you apologize quickly?"

Tang Gang offended Liao Zhi, and Tang Mo was implicated as expected. He was given a cold shoulder as soon as he arrived today, and everyone was not very enthusiastic about him. But Tang Gang is a marquis after all, and the achievements made by the old man of the Tang family are still there. Many people whose family background is not as good as Tang Mo's do not have the courage to embarrass him, but just avoid getting close to him.

Eating is the time when everyone is most relaxed and in the best mood of the day. Xin An chose this time specifically to come. Seeing someone making a fuss, he lowered his head in shame, "Do you want the food box?"

"Yes, if Brother Tang Er doesn't want to eat it, we will."

The person who started the commotion was called Zhuang Shi, from the Yongshuangbo Mansion. The situation of the Zhuang family was similar to that of the Tang family. Although they had not explicitly stated that they wanted to give up the military and pursue literature, there were not many men left in the army, otherwise Zhuang Shi would not have been able to work in the Beiya Army.

The two families have dealings with each other, so it's not surprising that Zhuang Shi gave Tang Mo some face.

Zhuang Shi started to make a noise, and those who were familiar with him followed suit. Xin An turned around shyly and walked away with her people. She walked very quickly. Tang Mo watched her go away. Zhuang Shi happily carried the food box into the cafeteria, "Tang Er brother is fascinated by the back of my sister-in-law. Let's see what delicious food she brought."

Several people came over happily with their bowls in hand. The food boxes contained either roast chicken or roast duck, as well as a dish of orange smoked goose and even seafood. Someone exaggeratedly praised, "Brother Tang's food is so good."

"I heard that the Xin family is rich and powerful, and it really lives up to its reputation."

"Brother Tang, are we ready to start eating?"

Tang Mo walked into the cafeteria with a smile, "I'm sorry to make you all laugh. Eat, you can't take it back now that it's been delivered."

"My sister-in-law is so kind to send you food. This is such a great kindness. Brother Tang is so lucky."

"That's right. You're the first person here to have your wife send you food. You're secretly happy."

Because of the dishes Xin An brought, these people's attitude towards Tang Mo became a little better in the afternoon. At least they were willing to remind him of some rules of the Beiya Army. Tang Mo was good at dealing with people and had no airs at all. He smiled at everyone he met, so those who were looking for trouble with him didn't get any chance.

When Xin An returned home, Mrs. Tao had already left, but Tao Yiran had an argument with Tang Rong for some unknown reason, and it was said that Tang Rong left in anger.

"How far can he go if he continues to swipe? I bet he won't even be able to get out of the courtyard."

Nan Feng nodded with a smile, "He went back to the study."

Xin An sat down and drank tea, then put down the teacup and started to prepare for the opera tomorrow. "Pick a brighter dress and lighter jewelry, not something too plain."

Aunt Wang felt that since it was her first time meeting those noble ladies in the capital, she should dress low-key and not steal the limelight.

"Everyone knows that my father is a salt merchant. If I dress too plainly, wouldn't it mean that my father doesn't make money?"

In her past life, she was often ridiculed for her plain clothes. Besides, she didn't like plain clothes. "As time goes by, I can wear bright clothes for a few years. I will have the chance to wear plain clothes in the future."

Aunt Wang was worried that Xin An would be too ostentatious and that some people in Beijing would become interested in the Xin family. However, Xin An didn't care. "Who stipulated that the Xin family's money can only be spent by the Tang family?"

"My father is a businessman, so naturally he has to put profit first."

Aunt Wang wanted to persuade him again, but Xin An stood up and said, "Aunt, how do you think the Tang family handle this marriage exchange?"

"What do you think of the Marquis' attitude towards the Second Young Master?"

Aunt Wang stopped talking. She thought that she didn't have much knowledge, so she simply stopped thinking about it and happily prepared clothes for Xin An to wear tomorrow.

"As for tomorrow's trip, Chunyang and Nanfeng will go with me."

Nanfeng was overjoyed. It was a great honor to be able to accompany the master out. He immediately agreed with a smile. Chunlu was unhappy. Xin An said, "Nanfeng knows the situation in the capital better than you. You can go out if you want, but you have to be more powerful than Nanfeng. Otherwise, if someone greets me after I go out, I don't know who she is, and you don't know either. How embarrassing!"

"I will ask my mother to lend me someone who is familiar with the situation in the capital. You all need to study hard. You will be my eyes when I go out."

Chunyang, Chunlu and Aunt Wang all nodded heavily. Chunlu thought of Xia'er who was brought back, and Xinan asked her to bring her over to see.

In the past few days, Xia'er has been living in the servants' room of the Marquis' Mansion. Apart from learning the rules, she also helps with odd jobs. Even so, compared with her life at home, it is a world of difference.

Xia'er was now clean from head to toe, wearing the same clothes as the maids in the mansion, which were brand new. No one knew who had combed her hair into a bun, but her hair was not thick and a little dry and yellow.

"Greetings to the Second Young Master's wife."

After learning the rules for a few days, I can still do it. "Get up, it's different after cleaning up. Are you used to it these days?"

"In reply to the Second Young Master's Madam, the mansion is very good." Xia'er was a little excited and even talked more. "I can sleep in a bed, have a quilt to cover myself, and wear two new clothes. I can eat enough food and the work is not difficult. There is no better life than this. Thank you very much, Second Young Master's Madam."

"My servant and my cousin both cherish the present life. My cousin said that we should work hard and not bring shame to the Second Young Master and the Second Young Master's wife."

After he finished speaking, he realized that he seemed to have said too much. He quickly lowered his head and tugged at his sleeves anxiously.

Xin An smiled and said, "I can hear you talk so much, it shows that you really like it here. If you like it, then study hard and do your job well. I will have other jobs for you later."

Xia'er hurriedly agreed. Chunlu rewarded her with a plate of cakes and led her away. Aunt Wang said that Xia'er looked quite smart and "if she is properly trained for a few days, she will be able to work as a servant."

"Her parents and brothers were all betrayed by the second young master. Although she didn't have a good life under their control, they are still her biological parents after all. I wonder if they have resentment in their hearts?"

Xin An didn't want to reuse Xia'er, "Just keep an eye on her."

"The point is her cousin."
