Twelve days later, one hundred well-made glass bowls and two hundred glass bottles for perfume came out. When Mr. Yang Qi, who was now in charge of the glass factory, led people to transport these goods to Tang Xi's home, he saw that everyone in the Tang family was busy. He couldn't help but ask around and found out that Lord Tang was going to get married.
Lord Tang is getting married. Although he is keeping a low profile, it is a big event for the people in Weizhen Station. Originally, it is a good thing for Tang to get married, but because the bride Chen Yuxian is remarrying, many people can't help but criticize him behind his back.
In this era, the rules of separation between men and women and the three chastities and nine loyalty have been deeply rooted in people's minds. If a man from an ordinary family marries a remarried woman, others will not say too much. But with Tang Qi's current status, there are many people talking about this matter behind his back. Even Yang Qi, who had just come in, couldn't help but shake his head after hearing about it.
General Yang Qi was entrusted with an important task by Tang Qi, and he was grateful to Tang Qi in his heart. In his heart, he thought that a man like Lord Tang should find a lady from a noble family, how could he marry a divorced woman? However, General Yang Qi could only think so in his heart, but he didn't dare to say anything. After he led people to move the goods into the hall, he looked up and saw Tang Qi standing under the eaves in front of the hall, with a woman standing next to her. She was so charming and breathtaking. General Yang Qi looked at the woman carefully, and he recognized her. It was Chen Yuxian. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, no wonder our master wanted to marry her. She was so beautiful that he might have lost his way because of her.
Mr. Yang Qi didn't dare to look at her any longer. He lowered his head and approached Tang Qi, handed the list of goods in his hand to Tang Qi, briefly explained the situation to Tang Qi, and then said goodbye and left. Tang Qi was in a good mood at the moment and didn't notice Mr. Yang Qi's eyes, but Chen Yuxian saw it. She was a smart person, so she naturally understood what Mr. Yang Qi's eyes meant, and she felt a little sad in her heart. There is an ancient poem that says: I regret that we didn't meet before I got married. This probably refers to the regret in her heart now.
Chen Yuxian was thinking secretly in her heart, and looked up to see Tang Qi directing his subordinates to arrange the house. The faint smile on his face made Chen Yuxian's sadness dissipate a lot. No matter what, at this moment, she should feel happy. Didn't Brother Tang say that sometimes people's destiny is not something they can control at will? So when we can control our own destiny, we should try our best to control it.
Tang Qi was busy for a while and found that something seemed to be wrong. He looked carefully and found that the new steward Xu Yuanhua was missing. He grabbed a servant and asked, "Where did that steward Xu go?"
Tang Lu brought Xu Yuanhua with him, but did not assign him any specific work for the time being. He planned to let him be a housekeeper for a while before considering what to do for him.
"Well...it seems that Butler Xu is out drinking." The servant asked uncertainly.
"Drinking? His husband is getting married, he should be happy, why is he drinking alone? It's outrageous." Tang Yu waved his hand, and after thinking about it, he understood why Xu Yuanhua wanted to drink. The scene resonated with him.
Tang Qi greeted Chen Yuxian and then went to find Xu Yuanhua. His subordinates had some ideological baggage, so as a leader, Tang Qi naturally had to care about him and do some ideological work for him.
Tang Qi never mentioned helping Xu Yuanhua with revenge, which made Xu Yuanhua feel upset. These past two days, seeing Tang Qi busy with getting married, he felt even worse. Thinking of his loving wife who was now dead without knowing it, if Xu Yuanhua could be happy, he would be a monster.
The economy of Weizhen was booming, which also attracted other people to come here to do business. Many small grocery stores and taverns were opened, all surrounding the Tang's Dance Theater.
Although the Tang's Song and Dance Theater is simply built, it is the most lively place in the entire Weizhenso. Every night, even people from Changzhou City come here to watch singing. There is a song and dance evening every night, which greatly enriches the nightlife of the people in Weizhenso and allows people to understand some things from the songs and dances.
When Xu Yuanhua saw the singing and dancing for the first time, he was really shocked. As a well-read man, he quickly saw the educational significance of these songs and dances to people, which made Xu Yuanhua admire Lord Tang even more.
However, although he admired Tang Yu, Xu Yuanhua was also depressed. Tang Yu had been reluctant to help him with revenge, and now it seemed that he, Xu Yuanhua, had been forgotten. This made Xu Yuanhua feel uneasy, and he wondered if his ability was not valued by this Lord Tang.
Scholars have their own pride. Xu Yuanhua really couldn't bring himself to ask Tang Lu for help again. He had to keep all the questions in his heart and ran to this tavern to drink.
Since Xu Yuanhua had just arrived in this place, few people knew him, so the people in the tavern did not know that there was a housekeeper of Lord Tang's family sitting here. Everyone was talking about Tang Xi's plan to get married.
"Hey, Lao You, do you think our Lord Tang is really going to marry that woman?" A dark and thin man asked his desk mate with a doubtful look on his face.
"Needless to say, I heard from the servants who went out to buy things at Lord Tang's house that Lord Tang will marry that woman the day after tomorrow." Another man took a sip of wine and raised his head.
"But our Lord Tang is a third-rank commander after all. Wouldn't it be a joke if he behaved like this?" The dark and thin man said again.
"What do you know? Lord Tang didn't hire a matchmaker, and didn't give any betrothal gifts. It can't be considered a formal marriage. In my opinion, Lord Tang is taking a concubine." Another person was holding a wine glass and talking leisurely. His expression was like that of Zhuge Liang when he was discussing national affairs, which made the other person roll his eyes.
"I think whether Lord Tang gets married or takes a concubine is actually his own business. As for that woman, she is too beautiful. So what if she is a married widow? From ancient times to the present, how many of the beauties recorded in history books have only had one man? Think about the four beauties, which man would despise her background? Take Xi Shi for example. After the Wu Kingdom was destroyed, Fan Li still took her home with an open mind." The man with rolled eyes must have read a few days of books. He shook his head a little when he spoke, like a bookworm reading Confucius.
The leisurely man snorted, "What you said is pure bullshit. Don't even mention Fan Li being heartless and ungrateful. Our Lord Tang is no such person. After the fall of Wu, Fan Li watched Xi Shi drown in the lake at the hands of the Queen of Yue, yet he happily embraced another woman. If you hadn't said anything, I wouldn't have been angry. But now that you've said it, I want to chop Fan Li into pieces and feed him to the dogs."
"You...you are such a jerk. Why are you cursing at people for no reason..." The topic of those people unconsciously turned to other things. After a quarrel, they had long forgotten about Tang Qi's marriage.
Xu Yuanhua couldn't help but shake his head, thinking that beautiful women have always been a disaster since ancient times. When he thought about this, he couldn't help but think of his wife. Wasn't it because of her beauty that she caused the disaster that happened to him?
"Beauty is the root of disaster, it has been like this since ancient times." Although Xu Yuanhua had no intention of blaming his wife for being the root of disaster, he still couldn't help but sigh.
"It's not the beauties who are the cause of trouble, but the men who are greedy for their beauty. It's like a big piece of gold. They don't move and hurt anyone, but those who want to get them are the ones who hurt others. Yuanhua, it's not good to drink here alone." Tang Yu walked in at this time and sat at Xu Yuanhua's table.
"What you said may make sense, but you have never been a victim, so how can you know how the victim feels?" Perhaps because he was slightly drunk, Xu Yuanhua expressed his feelings without hesitation.
"I don't like being a victim. If I have a choice, I would rather be the perpetrator and take the woman I like to my side. Yuanhua, cheer up. Only when you have strong strength can the beautiful woman around you no longer become a disaster for you." Tang Qi picked up a teacup from the plate and poured himself a glass of wine.
The look in Xu Yuanhua's eyes suddenly lit up, and he suddenly laughed, quite abruptly and quite loudly, causing everyone in the tavern to look at him.
