Portable Space: Reborn Little Couple

Chapter 526 The mastermind behind the scenes
As soon as the words fell, Mo Qianrui rolled his eyes.

Tang Yanxiu smiled awkwardly, coughed a few times, and quickly got back to business: "Okay, okay, stop making trouble, let's be serious."

Continuing to roll his eyes at the knife, Mo Qianrui's expression clearly read 'Who the hell is being dishonest'.

"Just like what you said just now, Xiaorui, the previous three incidents all revealed the softness of the opponent, so what's the problem? Could it be that it's just an ordinary grievance, not a real bloody feud? But this still means It doesn't make sense, think about it, if it's just a general enmity, the other party has made such a big effort just to cause us a little trouble?"

Maybe the first two things can still be said, but the night raider last night could tell that the other party was planning to make a real move.

only……

"Bookish."

"What? What did you say? Angry?"

Mo Qianrui didn't have the slightest smile on his face, his stern face looked extraordinarily serious, with a trace of murderous intent, Tang Yanxiu couldn't help but think of Mo Qianrui's horrible remarks just now, and immediately shivered .

"Yan Xiu, what I'm talking about is bookishness. The air of a pedantic scholar."

As soon as these words came out, Tang Yanxiu was really stunned.

"First of all, the matters of Meiniang's husband's family seem to be family affairs. The seniority is orderly, and the status of the original heir is higher than that of the second wife. This is indeed quite reasonable, but you think ordinary people will care about these things son?"

Don't think that all ancient people will abide by these cumbersome etiquette.

Generally speaking, ordinary people rarely have such pedantic concepts.

"Yanxiu, after you crossed over, you were in the Tang family in Jingdu County, so there are some things you don't know. Like ordinary rural farmers, it is indeed the primogeniture system in name, but the people love Yaoer, except for the ancestral house, most of them belong to the family. Apart from the eldest son, it is also very common for some of the private family property to be given to the youngest son. As for the elder parents, they have always lived in the ancestral house and are supported by the eldest son's family."

"But... so what?"

"Like my natal family, if I hadn't crossed over, then apart from the ancestral house, it would belong to my father, and other small things, including the food produced every year, would mostly belong to my little uncle. And the Li family, don't you I thought my uncle was the beneficiary of the primogeniture system, but to be precise, he is more or less the victim."

Tang Yanxiu didn't understand this at first, but after thinking about it carefully, he realized it.

The Li family developed under the hands of shopkeeper Li Da, but before that, it was just an ordinary farm family in the countryside.Even, it still belongs to a very poor family.

After the death of his parents and elders, shopkeeper Li Da can inherit all the family business in name, but in fact, the family is completely desolate, except for a dilapidated house, there is nothing that can be inherited at all.

On the contrary, the young brothers need to be raised by shopkeeper Li Da.

"Xiaorui, what do you mean to say that our opponent is absolutely impossible to be an ordinary peasant family. If it is a peasant family, most of them will admire their elder brother and will never be jealous?"

"Yes. Since the other party chose to provoke Meiniang's husband's uncle to fight for the family property, it can be said that the other party should be in a pretty good situation."

"There is an elder brother on the head, and the elder brother is the son of the original wife. He has a high status and is born to inherit the family business. But the relationship between the two brothers is not harmonious!"

Mo Qianrui nodded in agreement, but Tang Yanxiu's expression was extremely ugly.

After a long time, Tang Yanxiu suddenly raised his head: "Then what about the bookishness you mentioned just now?"

"The uncle of Meiniang's husband's family... I remember he was a scholar, right? Besides, you and I helped come up with an idea at the beginning, the main point of which was to deprive him of fame, right?"

"You mean, the other party is also a scholar and has been deprived of his fame?"

When he said this, Tang Yanxiu's eyes were already full of anger. He thought of someone, but unfortunately it was just a guess now. They didn't have any clear evidence, and it was difficult to convince others even a guess.

"Also, those runs in the business field. Yan Xiu, I guess, the other party may be from a merchant family, but he is not very proficient in business affairs. Or, he has not learned how to do business for many years. That's why he only learned those things. A quick solution that won’t make it to the table.”

"That's wrong." Hearing this, Tang Yanxiu hesitated, "You said you were angry with a book earlier, but you also said that your methods can't be put on the table? If you are really a pedantic scholar, the other party should not resort to such dirty methods. "

"Then what if he himself has encountered some low-handed methods?"

A former pedantic scholar, born in a merchant family, has a wealthy family, and is suppressed by an elder brother who is a bit older than himself, and the relationship between the brothers is not harmonious.

He once obtained fame in the examination, but was forcibly expelled by people using low-level means.

After that, he didn't know what happened at home, so he stopped studying hard, but went home to inherit the family business and relearned the affairs of the business field.

It's a pity that due to lack of talent, eagerness to learn, and some psychological problems caused by the previous incidents, the first move is a sleight of hand.

Going deeper, the other party blindly focused on the business in Yu County, but ignored the business in Mingyue Town, so there must be something else in it.

This is clearly...

The young couple put together the previous conclusions and pieced together the general situation of the opponent.

As for the night raid and kidnapping last night.

Originally, the two guessed that this was because the other party was afraid that things would fail, so they left a hole card.But if you think about it carefully, such a person should be extremely confident. If so, why would he choose to keep a hole card?

Just as the two of them were puzzled by what happened last night, shopkeeper Li Da hurried over.

"Yan Xiu, something happened again, you hurry up and follow me!"

The young couple looked at each other, and Tang Yanxiu spoke first, "Father, we have already guessed who is behind the scenes."

"Don't guess, it's the second master of the Qiao family!"

Shopkeeper Li's complexion was so dark that ink could drip out. While pulling Tang Yanxiu away forcefully, he did not forget to yell at Mo Qianrui: "Don't follow, big girl, hurry up and find your grandma and the others. Remember , don’t go anywhere, just stay at home and watch the children, the door is closed tightly, no matter what happens outside, you don’t come out!”

"Uncle, Yan Xiu!"

Watching Li Da shopkeeper hurried away with Tang Yanxiu, Mo Qianrui felt uneasy.

Is it really the second master of the Qiao family?
Since Shopkeeper Li said it so affirmatively, it means that he already has clear evidence, or that he has met the second master of the Qiao family at all.

But why is this?

Even though the second master of the Qiao family was very suitable for the opponent Mo Qianrui imagined in her heart, she still couldn't understand why the second master of the Qiao family would become enemies with Tang Yanxiu and shopkeeper Li Da, even at the expense of kidnapping herself.

Is it...for the Tang Family Firm?
