Chapter 88

When Chang Ying arrived at the warehouse, she saw that the warehouse was in a mess, and the sound of the craftsmen asking and yelling nearly knocked off the roof.

Su Xinrong stood hoarsely in front of the material distribution counter, pointing at the few people in front of her and yelling at them. It turned out that everyone was scrambling to drag the material over to work first. She didn't line up here, and the two sides became deadlocked.

Changying took a look, picked up a drumstick and drew five or six circles on the ground, and then beat the drum twice.

When everyone was quiet, she pointed out a few small officials surrounded by Su Xinrong, and signaled them to stand in the circle: "Everyone moves a table here, and at the same time, they will send out batches of materials to load the car.

"Anyone who procrastinates will go to General Tan to receive the punishment. Craftsmen who don't line up to follow the rules will go to General Xu to receive the punishment."

After two breaths of silence, Su Xinrong said angrily: "Shen Changying, who gave you the right to meddle in my affairs!"

"I'm sorry, General Tan sent me here." Changying replied slowly, while looking over everyone.

The little officials who were ordered immediately dispersed to move the table, while the craftsmen mumbled at first, and then they all pushed and shoved to stand in line as she said.

The warehouse, which had been a mess just now, immediately became Changying's home field. Su Xinrong gritted her teeth and stared, but there was nothing she could do.

Seeing that the order had stabilized, Chang Ying also walked around to the lumberyard to have a look.

Although Su Xinrong's subordinates were in charge of escorting this side, but because Huang Ji arranged for people to take care of it, nothing happened.

Xu Lan also went to the warehouse because the materials needed for the dock had not arrived. He expected to reprimand him, but when he arrived, he found it was in good order. The petty officials sitting behind the tables that passed by were all energized to do their errands, and half of their anger could not help but dissipate.

Su Xinrong, who was standing far away, took all of his expression into her eyes, turned her mind, and suppressed the heart that hated Shen Changying, walked over and said: "Just now the craftsmen were disobedient and deceived me into being a woman , here to compete with me, I acted a little bit more seriously, and brought them down, General Xu can see if there is anything wrong? I will go to mediate."

Xu Lan said, "You arranged this?"

Su Xin didn't change her face: "This is my job, if it's not me, could it be someone else?"

Xu Lan didn't say anything.After looking around twice, he said, "Go to work, don't miss the job."

After speaking, he asked her again: "Has Changying come over?"

Su Xinrong took a breath, and still pointed at the pier without changing her face: "I saw her go there just now, maybe I went to find General Huo."

……

Changying stayed in the lumberyard, and the petty officials brought her chairs and tea, all of them were as attentive as the little tiger cats who waited on the Monkey King.

She sat on the twig and sipped half a bowl of tea, and Huang Ji came back.

"Those two classics are friends of Wang Zhao's. According to them, Wang Zhao has no special relationship with the chief of the Tiju Department, but he has close contacts with the officials on the river.

"Including Qian Yun, whenever he has something to send, he will first arrange for Wang Zhao to do it, but they don't know who they have contacts with on the river, whether it is Qian Yun or not."

Chang Ying was not surprised by the result. Although Wang Zhao is a young man, he has weaknesses. He asks for money. If he is not careful, he will get nothing. .

"Did Wang Zhao not respond to the arrest of those people last time?" she asked.

"Yes." Huang Ji said, "Wang Zhao was inquiring about the whereabouts of those people from the side, and he seemed to have heard about our arrest that day, and because he also inquired about our supervisor, I think he was already suspicious. .”

After hearing this, Changying pondered.

Since Wang Zhao was suspicious, the people behind him must also be suspicious.

After all, the Gu family is no longer able to cover the sky with one hand, at most it is pulling the prince to fight against the emperor.

Although the Department of Water Transport is in the hands of the Gu family and the East Palace, the court also sent a supervisory censor to monitor the order of the river, and they never dared to blatantly expose the matter of prying the corner of the imperial court.

They became suspicious, and it is likely that they will restrain themselves later.If they restrain themselves, where will they go to grab their tails?

"Give me the roster of all the officials on the river," she said.

Huo Rong walked around the pier twice, watching the official ships approach the shore, and several groups of people came down one after another before heading ashore again.

I happened to meet Xu Lan when I was going uphill, we exchanged a few words with each other, and then went about our own business.

Changying kept an eye on Wang Zhao, Huo Rong stared at Qian Yun, Xu Lan was not idle either, he was still in contact with the two merchant ships.

Therefore, this day was really busy all day, and it was already dusk when I got off work in the afternoon.

At the entrance of the alley, Su Xinrong hesitated whether to go to Xu's house, but seeing that Xu Lan looked kindly today, she gave up her mind again.

I may not be in a good state after working hard for a day, so that's all.

When I got back to the mansion, I just stepped through the door when I heard my mother Pang's crying in the room. After listening carefully, it belonged to Su Peirong's mother, Cao's.

Knowing that she was still talking about the second room, she simply didn't go in, and went back to the room to call the maid, and sent the few boxes of snacks prepared by the daytime people to Xu's house first.

"Let's just say it's getting late, so I won't come here to disturb Aunt Xu's rest, and I'll go to pay her a visit tomorrow when I go to Yamen."

"Wait." Coincidentally, Pangshi had sent Caoshi away and walked in. After looking at the dim sum, she waved her hand to the maid to fetch a pair of embroidered pillowcases and another bundle.

"The Xu family doesn't care if you don't put your heart and soul into your errands. After all, if you leave the court in the future, you will still have to stay in the inner house to care for your husband and teach your children. Only a female celebrity who can get it out is worthy."

After speaking, she asked the servant girl, "Just tell Mrs. Xu that this pillowcase was embroidered by the girl, and the dessert was also made by the girl."

Su Xinrong looked at Pang Zi: "I don't know how to do these things, what if I get overwhelmed?"

Pang smiled slightly and sat down: "So you have been in Nankangwei for almost three years, but you still haven't been able to win Xu Lan's heart.

"Even if you can't do it, can you learn it? Even if you can't learn it, you can pretend you can't? Pretend you can't do it, you should do it. As long as his mother approves of you, can you do it?"

Su Xinrong secretly didn't think so.

If it's that simple, how can Xu Lan drag on his temper to such an extent that he still doesn't get married?

The rules of the Xu family are important, and the words of the Xu family and his wife carry a lot of weight, but if Xu Lan does not violate the rules, they may not be able to force Xu Lan to do anything.

But when Pang talked about female celebrities, her heart sank. Shen Changying's hand in Qi Jialu had crushed her and Huang Huiqi into scum. If Mrs. Xu knew that the person Xu Lan liked was so good Skills, Mrs. Xu probably wants to be happy!
It's a shame why she didn't find out that Shen Changying was still hiding this trick?If she had known earlier, she would not have allowed Pang to invite Mrs. Xu over.
