Chapter 135 Family Assembly ([-])

I really didn't expect the family meeting to be so intense. It would not be an exaggeration to describe it as a sword with a tongue.As soon as Tang Li made a start, Tang Xun couldn't wait to stand up, pointing at Tang Linger and scolding him.

Facing this kind of situation, Su Yu, who was used to watching the situation of the board of directors in his previous life, was not surprised. It is normal for sensible people to form cliques.Some sensible members, after discussing in advance, sometimes change their minds at the venue.In order to deal with this group of guys, Su Yu would often have backup.But Tang Ling'er was only a 19-year-old girl after all, whether she could stand the test really made people sweat.

When the elders were questioning, no one else had the right to intervene, even the fourth son Tang Kuan just smiled evilly and remained silent.

Those sons who supported Tang Kuan felt that things were going well, and some even couldn't hold back their emotions, and whispered their blessings to Tang Kuan.The young masters who supported Tang Ling'er looked sad.Especially the seventeenth son, Tang Yan, seemed a little restless.He kept winking at Tang Linger, signaling Linger to stand up and say something as soon as possible.You can't just listen to two old things.

Tang Linger just listened at first, hoping that the two elders would suddenly change the subject, but she waited for a long time, but she didn't wait for that moment.She didn't know why these two behaved like this, could they be confident?
Obviously, when Tang Zhen was not at home, Tang Linger seemed to be alone.Nobody in the Presbyterian Church spoke for her.Unable to sit still, Tang Linger stood up and said:
[When Linger first took charge of the financial power, it was the most anxious time of the War of Resistance.The Tang family worked together and exchanged all the money for food and sent it to the battlefield.In order to buy food, I ran to the Meng family, Ximen family, and Han family to ask for food, and it was not worth mentioning how much face I lost.

But even so, there are still many people in the Tang Mansion pampered and pampered, living extravagantly without knowing frugality.And I don't know that his meal can be worth the daily rations of a hundred soldiers.When I heard that many soldiers of the magic strategy did not die at the hands of the enemy, but starved to death, I couldn't bear anyone to waste any more, so I adopted the strategy of regular and quantitative diet.

No matter when and where, I don't think my decision is wrong.

According to the previous dietary standards of the Eastern Mansion, the daily diet of more than 800 people can be reduced to half, and the money saved is enough to ensure the basic rations of at least one division.During that time, including me, we also ate regularly and quantitatively, and never engaged in privileges.The food photos are a bit worse than before, but I think it's worth it to feed the soldiers.

However, I do not shirk my fault. The lack of food in Dongfu began in the first month of this year, and it was indeed caused by my excessive investment in cotton spinning.Because I didn't expect Meng Sixun to backtrack and extend the delivery time again and again.However, during these two and a half months, I also begged everywhere and got a lot of food on credit to make up for my mistakes.

This happened only once and I promise it won't happen again. 】

After Tang Linger's words, there was almost no discussion in the audience.But Tang Xun said sharply:

"Others can say 'unexpected', but the person in charge of the family's financial power is not qualified to say 'unexpected'. One of your mistakes may lead to the collapse of the entire family. At that time, you can't afford it, and neither can the elders. You Say you have many difficulties, but when Tang Kuan was in power, did there not be many battles outside? Did the finances of the Tang family collapse? Are people like us starving? Why did Tang Kuan not have these problems when he was in power? You were in power There are so many questions. Don't you feel ashamed? Don't you think you should give up the seat to Tang Kuan, who is more experienced and wise?"

At this time Tang Li was about to speak, but Tang Ning coughed softly, "Old Qi, don't get excited, sit down and speak slowly."

Tangning changed the subject and said calmly:
[This time the Liang Dynasty and the Sanhu fought against the Three Kingdoms with the power of one country, which is quite different from previous wars.The reason for this situation is that the Empress Dowager Chen was too tough.However, after this battle, I also demonstrated my great power and established my dominant position.In this war, my son from the Tang family fought hard in the Northwest and made outstanding contributions.

I don't think it's wrong for Ling'er to save money on Dongfu's expenses for the sake of military rations.And I can also understand Ling'er's situation. It is an indisputable fact that the Meng family has the most wealth now, and the Meng family has the final say in the accounting.Meng Sixun is in charge of all the financial resources of the Meng family.And Ling'er is only in charge of one-third of the Tang family's warehouse.It is not easy for her to deal with Meng Sixun.

I was the one who separated the financial rights of the Eastern and Western prefectures at the beginning, but now you are discussing the financial rights of the Eastern prefecture, I don't want to interfere.However, at this family meeting, if your uncles and nephews quarrel like this, it will inevitably lose the demeanor of the elders, and it will also break the etiquette of the younger generations.

In my opinion, the people who came to the meeting today are representatives of each family. Why don't you hold an election in Dongfu and let the representatives of each family in Dongfu decide who will be the family.And those of us in the West Mansion are not allowed to participate, and they all stand to the left for me. 】

Tangning's words surprised Su Yu and disrupted Su Yu's plan.

Su Yu was still thinking, if Tang Li and Tang Xun continued to attack Tang Ling'er, he should jump out and say something.Throwing out their criminal evidence, and then throwing out the evidence that Tang Kuan colluded with the two elders is enough to mess up the questioning.In this way of almost breaking the boat, help Tang Ling'er keep her financial power.As for the mess in the future, I will leave it to Tang Zhen to deal with it later.

But what Tangning said now, he said that he would not interfere with Dongfu's finances, but in fact he had already interfered, and made a way for everyone to vote.

Tang Ning's move caught Tang Kuan and Tang Ling'er a little by surprise.

If Tang Ning's words are approved by the elders, then the next step is to fight for the popularity of Tang Kuan and Tang Ling'er.

Obviously, these two usually don't pay much attention to cultivating popularity. Once the election is held, the result will be difficult to control.

The old patriarch Tang Ning's words carried a lot of weight. Tang Li and Tang Xun sat there thinking about something without speaking.

Tang Kuan frowned, and squinted his eyes, and someone around him was chattering about something.

Tang Ling'er stood there alone, not speaking.

Su Yu stood among the women, listening to these women talking in low voices, most of their words were in support of Tang Kuan.

On Su Yu's right is a group of young masters from the Tang Mansion, headed by Tang Qi, who are also discussing in a low voice. They have a lot of support for Tang Linger.

Su Yu had an idea, and shouted loudly: "The words of the patriarch are indeed wise. As the saying goes, justice is in the hearts of the people. It is most suitable for the representatives of the various families in the East Mansion to decide who will be the family. I believe everyone understands. Big things are higher than small things. Without a country, how can we have a family? Without soldiers fighting bloody battles, how can we live in peace?
If the soldiers were defeated due to lack of food, we may now live on the streets and become beggars, or become slaves of the subjugated country for the Hu people to drive.It's like when the five chaos were in chaos, men were killed and women were reduced to tools for giving birth.How miserable.

Uncle Qi said just now that the women's houses collapsed, and Su Yu also agreed with this point of view. If so, then let the bloody men of the Tang family vote, and the women should not follow blindly. "
