Chapter 496: Carefree Tang Rong
The Tang family members still don't understand who Tang Gang is. It is precisely because they don't understand that they have to be more cautious.
"No matter how capable we are, can we still be knighted?"
"As long as this title is still there, we are all side branches. What we need to do is to stick closely to the Marquis' Mansion, follow the lead of the Marquis' Mansion, and climb up the tree of the Marquis' Mansion."
"Have you forgotten the days when the Marquisate ignored us?"
At that time, they could only stay in their hometown and had to mention the Marquis' Mansion from time to time, for fear that others did not know that their Tang family had such a prominent relative.
Tang Yu's face became even uglier. He had only seen the world after staying in the capital for a long time. It was inevitable that he would feel unbalanced. He was from the same clan as his brothers, but the other one was a powerful marquis who was in great glory and everyone had to bow and nod when they saw him. However, he was just an ordinary person who no one recognized when he walked out of the gate of the marquis' mansion.
He is not as good as Tang Gang, and his father is not as good as others' fathers, but his descendants are promising. Are they not as promising as Tang Gang's? He only regrets that he does not have a father with outstanding military achievements! Zhao came, "I see that you have nothing to do in the capital, so go back. The family affairs are still waiting for you to deal with. The marriages of the boys are not urgent, and the marriages of the three girls are also supervised by me and my sister-in-law."
"If you're worried, we can take the three sisters back and look for our relatives in our hometown."
The marriages of the three sisters have not been decided yet, and the people who came to propose marriage are not very nice. She was originally full of expectations, but now she understands.
The boys do look good, but they are just good looks. Who knows what the future will be like? At least for now, the three sisters cannot get married.
A blacksmith must be strong himself. If the daughter of a family has no ability, they cannot be considered a good family. Their Tang family is not the Xin family, and a large dowry can attract people.
"Why, what the matchmaker said today is not acceptable again?"
"He is either a bastard or his family is impoverished, waiting to be supported by a wife."
Tang Yu was a little angry, "Didn't you say that Princess Yong'an was interested in being a matchmaker? A military commander is also a good choice."
Zhao didn't respond. The person who had the final say with Princess Yong'an was Xin'an, but she was pregnant now. Her mother-in-law doted on her so much. Who would take the responsibility if something went wrong? The couple kept silent. It was Tang Nan who figured it out. "It was my second uncle's idea to bring our daughter to the capital, but he never asked about it after we got there. Did he forget or something else?"
Tang Yu then remembered that he had come here just to receive Tang Gang's letter, "He was waiting for me to ask for help."
After saying this, he let out a deep breath. He was indeed a little confused. He thought that just because he lived in the Marquis' Mansion and his children were outstanding, he could dream about other things. However, he forgot that they were a family, dependent on each other and helping each other, instead of letting his own selfish desires take over and almost ruining things.
Tang Gang, it cannot be that simple for someone to become a marquis.
It’s a pity that the eldest son Tang Rong doesn’t seem like he can accomplish anything.
At the same time, Tang Rong, who was thousands of miles away from the capital, did not live a hard life just because he was far away from the capital. Although the weather was hot, his courtyard was cool and comfortable. In order to curry favor with him and get benefits from him, wealthy people hundreds of miles away would travel every night with ice buckets wrapped in thick cotton wool, and deliver the unmelted ice buckets to his courtyard at dawn. The freshest fruits were delivered to him from the surrounding towns every three days. As long as he opened his mouth, his subordinates would satisfy him with whatever he wanted.
The beauty who had been with him before is now his concubine, who takes care of his internal and external affairs. The beauty who is with him now has changed. I don't know which rich businessman or minor official has sent him batch after batch of beauties. These beauties are either passionate and charming or bright and lively, and all of them make Tang Rong intoxicated.
In this small Songyang County, he is the king. No unpleasant words can reach his ears. There are too many people flattering him, and his life is even more comfortable than in the capital.
"Sir, a letter from the Marquis's Mansion."
The Qing Mo of today is a completely different person. Tang Rong prides himself on his different status and will not easily meet those who ask for a meeting. Even though he is just a small county magistrate, it is not easy for his superiors to meet him.
The only person these people could see was Qing Mo. Countless benefits came to Qing Mo. Qing Mo had also received many benefits when he followed Tang Rong in the capital, but far less than in Dongyang County. He soon forgot Nanfeng's instructions and was only thinking about getting benefits. When he was outside, he acted more arrogant than Tang Rong, and everyone had to respectfully call him "Master Mo".
Of course, Mr. Mo was still Qing Mo, a servant in front of Tang Rong. He respectfully handed over a letter from home, which was written to him by Tao Yiran. Tang Rong was not interested. With the beauty in his arms, he almost forgot what Tao Yiran looked like. But when he saw the content of the letter, he stood up suddenly. His cold father actually gave him another brother or sister.
"That's ridiculous."
What if the baby is younger than his son?
"Where is the messenger?"
"Just outside the door."
"Bring it in."
The messenger arranged by Tao Yiran started by telling what had happened in the Marquis' Mansion in recent days. He emphasized how Tang Mo was valued, how the Marquis' Mansion was controlled by Xin An, and how much Tang Gang valued the pregnant concubine Luo. In the end, he didn't dare to say anything.
Tang Rong's expression was too scary.

"Go down."
The messenger bravely took out another letter, saying that it was a portrait that Tao Yiran had drawn for Chun Lang, "The little boy is very cute, and looks very much like the prince."
Tang Rong took it, opened the envelope and took out a thin piece of paper. The doll on the paper was very cute, with smiling eyes and eyebrows. Tang Rong stared at it for a long time and thought of Tao Yiran again.
"How are the young lady and the young master?"
"My Lord, both the Madam and the young master are fine. It's just that the Madam is not in charge of the household anymore. She has to take care of not only the young master, but also the two concubines and the other two young masters. She is a little short of money. If you have enough money, please send some money back."
Tang Rong did not say anything. He asked a few more questions before letting the man leave. He told him to rest for three days and then set off back, and to come and get the money before leaving.
After the others left, Tang Rong sat down and pondered for a while, then asked Qing Mo to prepare to study ink. He didn't want to have any more brothers and sisters, so Tao Yiran still needed to help with this matter. After writing the letter, he asked Qing Mo to bring 10,000 taels of silver notes and lock them together in a box, "and give it to him when the time comes."
Qing Mo took the box and put it away. He then had someone bring in a potted plant. The plant was made entirely of gold, even the leaves were golden, and the fruits were made of various gemstones. "This was sent by Lord Cao. He said there is a position that he meets the requirements to move to, and he wants the prince's help."
Aunt Cao's father didn't care about Aunt Cao's situation at all. He was only interested in currying favor with Tang Rong and seeking wealth and glory.
Tang Rong glanced at it briefly and said, "How vulgar."
Oh my god, it’s already March, spring is here, and I’m going to start having allergies again. I’m terrified just thinking about it!!! (End of this chapter)
