The Duke’s wife is beautiful but has a dark heart

Wen Yu was talking to Zhuzhu when Song Shang walked in, followed by someone else.

Wen Yu took a look, Song Tao?

Song Tao was tall and tall, with a smile on his face. He bowed his head as soon as he came in and said, "I'm here to greet my aunt, my aunt, and all the ladies!"

The two old ladies were very happy to see him. Mrs. Song pointed and said, "Mrs. Qi and the princess may not know that this is my cousin! He came from my hometown a few days ago! Although he is young, he is very capable. ! Just follow Brother Shang since you were a child!"

Mrs. Qi felt good seeing Song Tao's respectful and funny look.

Song Tao said quickly: "Auntie praised me again. If my nephew is half as capable as the fifth brother, his life will not be in vain!"

Old Mrs. Wen had a good impression of her nephews, "Don't be so modest! I heard from your fifth brother that you did everything properly! You brothers work together and are as strong as gold! This is what you do!" The foundation of the prosperity of the Song family. Ashang is the most suitable head of the Song family, you follow him and work hard!"

Song Tao stood there and nodded frequently, looking very excited.

"That's what my aunt said! When you see the distinguished guests welcoming you today, you know that the Song family, under the leadership of Fifth Brother, has established a foothold in the capital. This is all the result of Fifth Brother! Follow Fifth Brother, good times are ahead!" "

Several women and even Princess Huiduan thought this young man was good.

Wen Yu turned to look at Song Shang. His slender eyes seemed to be smiling, and his long eye hairs squinted to hide his emotions.

After saying hello to the elders, Song Tao returned to Song Shang. When he saw Wen Yu, he said, "Cousin Wen!" He bowed deeply.

"My cousin is really sorry that I didn't have time to attend my cousin's wedding. I saw my brother-in-law over there just now..." He glanced at Song Shang with a smile and said, "He is really the best among men. Song Tao has never seen him before." Such a handsome man. He is actually the Young Master of the Hou Mansion... Congratulations to my cousin!"

Wen Yu displayed the dignity of a Marquis of the Hou family and was very polite: "Sixth cousin, Miao Zan! Will my cousin go to Beijing with you?"

Song Tao's expression was innocent, but there was a glint in his eyes that could not be easily detected, "How can she compete with all the cousins? I'm afraid she'll faint when she gets to the capital! That's why she didn't come with her!"

"Cousin is joking!"

"Miss Wen!" Song Tao saluted Wen Shizhu again. "When you were a child, you looked different! You are indeed a treasure from a famous family! Fortunately, when you and your eldest cousin were busy in the bamboo garden when you were a child... I never caused any trouble, and you even moved bricks and firewood. It's over!" His eyes glanced at Song Shang again.

Wen Shizhu nodded: "I remembered. You never bullied us!"

Song Tao bowed repeatedly: "Then you have to say a few good words for me in front of Lord Wen! I will ask your father to take good care of me in the future!"

Then, after saying a few more polite words, he went to talk to Brother Feng and Wen Jiao.

Wen Yu whispered: "When did he come?"

"Five or six days! Just now, another person came back. Guess who it is?"

"Who...him?" Wen Yu suddenly remembered, the second son of the Xu family?

"Well, yes!" Song Shangxi opened his eyes with a sinister smile on his face, "What a coincidence?!"

"Have you become an official?"

"That's not right! He said that he was not the material. He was lonely in office and was afraid of causing trouble for me. So... he resigned and came back!"

"Haha, I'm afraid this is the one who went looking for me, right? What did Madam Xu say?"

"Angry. But he just arrived and didn't have time to ask more questions."

"Cousin, why don't you borrow a few hundred taels of silver and let him go out to find his own way. Let's see how he responds?"

"Haha, why are you going around in that circle? When he comes back, he is seeking his own death!"

"When will you tell Madam Xu and his elder brother?"

"Let's talk about it after we catch it!"

"Don't let anything happen to you! It's not like you've never done anything like shooting someone in the foot!"

"I know!" Song Shang didn't like to hear it.

"Where's this one?"

"He is also seeking his own death."

Wen Shizhu didn't know what they were talking about. After watching them finish, he continued the topic and said to Wen Yu: "Brother Song Wu said that my father was the first customer and a VIP in the store, so he gave me a preferential price. Dad I rented a guest room for a long time. I said I would come to the store again and I could rest here when I was tired!"

"Your father loves you so much!"

"Well! The yard at home has almost been tidied up. My father and grandfather have been asking me to move there. But I'm afraid that if I go there, I won't be able to go out! Hehe, it's been a long time! Ah Yu, I also asked them to tidy up the yard at home. Where to stay, when the time comes, take Lan Zhou over too!"

"That's OK! Then give the courtyard where we live to Master Qing, and let her nephew move there too. In this way, it will be convenient for everyone."

"Well, you have a good idea!"

"Zhuzhu, what did your father say about your marriage?"

"If Zhuzhu doesn't marry, I'll stay with dad and you!"

"If you get married, you'll be watching over us!" Then I thought about it, if I really married Hu Fei, I might have to go back to Hu's house with him! How long will it take to see you? Sure enough, he failed! It fails in every aspect!

"Didn't your father say you were looking for a son-in-law?"

"Say it! But Gu Yue said that since ancient times, people who were ugly, poor, lazy, and couldn't survive in the family became their son-in-law. I don't want it!" Wen Shizhu said, shuddering.

Well... let her father worry!

Song Tao followed Song Shang to socialize for a while. Song Shang had an important guest, so he had a chance to hide out. Xu Er was waiting in the corner.

"No one is following you, right?!"

Xu Er said: "No. Sixth Master, I just saw the fifth master's appearance, and I felt a little uneasy."

"Don't worry! He does all the big things, how can he care about you?"

"That's right! It's so lively today!"

"Yes, there are a lot of important people here. But it doesn't matter. He has connections, but I don't? I might as well tell you that I have also hooked up with someone. He has a lot of things in his hands! Cooperate with him , it will definitely work!”

"You are the most capable!"

"Just now, I saw Wen Yu and the one named Hongdou! I didn't expect that the two of them would have such an adventure..."

Song Shang has so many relationships, which is more difficult than he thought before.

"I have always suspected that the bamboo salt was made by the two of them. I saw it with my own eyes. I actually helped them chop bamboo and carry firewood! They were playing with the salt there..."

Why didn't you continue to pay attention? I really want to incite myself!
"But why did it get into the hands of Master Wu!?" Xu Erlang asked.

"What a thief he is! Ha! I've been thinking about Wen Yu for a long time, but it didn't work! I don't know how I deceived the bamboo salt prescription. Alas, it's too late. With the current status of these two girls, I want to get it from them again. , It’s unrealistic! We can only deal with Lao Wu. Okay, I’m going back, and we’ll do what we discussed!”

In the evening, Song Shang returned home. Madam Xu and Xu Dalang had gloomy faces and were already very angry. Xu Erlang may have been trained to hold his neck.

When Song Shang asked someone to call him, he softly begged his mother: "Mom, my son just wants to be with you and my eldest brother. He is alone outside. He is very lonely... Can you talk to the Fifth Master?" "

When they arrived in front of Song Shang, Song Tao was also there.

Song Shang said directly: "Erlang, in order to find this official position for you, I spent several months on favors and money. Even if you are unwilling, you must have already thought about your future. You are a free man. Pack your things and move out of the house!”

When Xu Erlang heard this, he felt a little scared. He quickly apologized and begged in various ways, and even looked at his mother and elder brother with his eyes.

Madam Xu and Xu Dalang looked at each other without speaking.

Xu Erlang was still chattering endlessly, promising that he would only stay in the Song family and do anything... When he got excited, he even knelt down to plead.

Song Tao remained silent, but seeing his appearance, he felt uncomfortable. He stood up and helped Xu Erlang up, and begged Song Shang: "Fifth brother, Erlang has been working in the Song family and has never stayed outside. His mother and eldest brother are capable. , taking too much care of him, he lacks experience. Being outside all of a sudden... is really difficult for him. Otherwise, please forgive me this time!"

Song Shang said: "I didn't blame him...Master Xu, that is the person I trust very much, and he did die for me back then! I, Song Shang, am not an ungrateful person. Therefore, I will make proper arrangements for his family." . But no matter how they arrange it, they must have their own intentions."

Madam Xu and Xu Dalang both nodded gratefully.

Song Tao: "Fifth brother, you have forgotten that my younger brother often made mistakes when he was a child. You taught me too much and gave me opportunities!"

Song Shang hesitated for a while, then nodded, "That's okay. Erlang, you can't go back to the Song family. If not, I'll lend you some money and you can make a living outside. Feel free to do what you want or do badly. You have the final say. . You will pay back the money you earn in the future!”

Song Tao was a little surprised. Xu Erlang became even more frightened when he heard this, and knelt down again: "Fifth Master, don't drive me out!"

Song Shang's face tightened: "You are not the only one under me! The Xu family is not the only one who works hard for me, Song Shang. If everyone is like you, how can I restrain people?! How can I do things!?"

Madam Xu said in a deep voice: "Fifth Master is right! Fifth Master promises you even if you are a mother!"

"Mother..." Xu Er actually cried.

Song Tao thought for a while: "Fifth brother, if you don't do this... let him get under my hands!"

The expression on Xu Erlang's face did not change, but his eyes became brighter!

Song Shang looked at Song Tao steadily...

Song Tao was calm at first, but later, his heart was beating wildly and his back was sweating.

"Sixth brother, they are a family. Either they will follow you, or they will follow me. Otherwise, leave the Song family. This is my rule!"

Madam Xu and Xu Dalang glared at Erlang angrily, they did not want to leave Song Shang.

Xu Erlang's face turned pale and he thought to himself: When did you have this rule?
Song Tao smiled reluctantly: "I'm sorry, Fifth Brother, I don't know this rule, so I spoke rashly..."

Song Shang said calmly: "The Song family's industry has grown big, and our brothers are getting older. I think it's almost time to separate the family..."

Now, it was Song Tao's turn to turn pale!
