Chapter 469 Thanks
"Meow meow……"
From the window came the cry of a kitten.
Tang Yichen smiled and put down the brush in his hand.
"Where did this stray cat come from? It looks so pitiful. Is there no one to take it in? Come in!"
Qin Huiyin walked in carrying a basket.
"Why did you leave just now?" Qin Huiyin put the food out. "I ordered your favorite food for you to take back. Come and eat."
"You sisters probably have a lot to talk about, and it's not convenient for me to be there. Besides, I do have some official business to attend to."
"Master Tang has worked so hard." Qin Huiyin served him some soup. "This is the best-selling tonic soup in the East Tower. Drink some to replenish your body."
"Our boss Qin is being so attentive, could there be some kind of drug in the soup?" Tang Yichen raised an eyebrow, "I need to test it for poison first."
"Yes, I put a pound of arsenic in it. Come and try it to see if it tastes good. If it does, put more next time."
Tang Yichen chuckled and took a sip of soup.
"Miss Xia must have suffered a heavy loss this time. However, from another perspective, she has gained a backer like the King of Wei, which can be considered a benefit."
"Wan'er said that money is external to the body. As long as the person is safe, everything else can be discussed. Besides, as you said, this is a blessing in disguise for her. She wants to give 20% of the interest to the King of Wei for ten years. This means that the King of Wei can protect her for ten years, and she has ten years to grow."
"Don't you want to know why I'm pulling the strings with the King of Wei and not the Crown Prince?"
"I want to know, big brother, tell me quickly."
"The Crown Prince is surrounded by many people watching him. If he gets too close to a court official, the one in the palace will know immediately. Even if the Crown Prince wants to make this money, he doesn't have the ability to do so. This case involves many people. Anyone can plead for Prince Ning, but the Crown Prince cannot open his mouth to do so."
"Also, the Prince of Wei's biological mother is favored and has considerable influence with the Emperor. The Prince of Wei has been very well behaved over the years and has no desire to compete for the throne, so the Emperor has no suspicions about him. Although this matter isn't handled by the Crown Prince, it must go through his connections, so at least 10% of the 20% profit will go to the Crown Prince."
The prince can get a large sum of money for free without having to show up, handle anything, or worry about anything. I'm afraid he will trust the King of Wei even more.
"Prince Wei is favored and trusted by the Emperor. If he were to compete for the throne, he should have a chance of winning, right?"
"Everything the King of Wei has now is because he is an idle prince. Once he is no longer idle, all the balance will be broken."
Qin Huiyin nodded: "The royal family is really troublesome. Fortunately, I was not born in a royal family."
"This Song Sao fish soup is not as delicious as yours. Don't order it next time."
"Then I'll make it for you?" Qin Huiyin asked. "Sister Wan'er said she wanted to thank you and buy you a gift. I thought you might not use it even if she bought it for you, and you don't need anything right now, so I declined it on your behalf. You've helped Sister Wan'er so much, I'm thanking you on her behalf. I'll buy you whatever you like, okay?"
"You also said that brother doesn't need anything now, so I don't want anything you bought. If you want to thank me, just make me a set of clothes!"
"Okay!"
"Every stitch must come from your own hands."
"can."
"Then I'll wait."
Qin Huiyin came out from Tang Yichen's place and passed through the yard. She saw Tang Luwu sitting on the swing, with Shang Zimo pushing her from behind.
Tang Luwu was in a bad mood, and Shang Zimo was saying something to her.
She wanted to go in and ask, but seeing that the atmosphere between the two of them was so harmonious that it seemed there was no room for a third person, she hesitated again.
Tang Luwu turned around and saw Qin Huiyin. She got off the swing and greeted her with a smile: "Yinyin, why are you here?"
"I just came back from outside and passed by your gate, so I wanted to come and take a look."
"Come over here quickly, I'm so worried," Tang Luwu said. "There was a spy at the military factory today. Luckily, President Rong caught him, otherwise there would be a big disaster. That person just happened to go in with me. I'm really worried that even if I had eight mouths, I wouldn't be able to explain it clearly."
"You went to the munitions factory?"
"President Rong sent someone to deliver your seal. I couldn't give such an important item to anyone else, so I went to deliver it myself. Somehow, the spy got into my carriage and followed me inside. Fortunately, the military factory was heavily guarded, and the spy was quickly apprehended. I don't think he leaked any important information. But this makes me the suspect."
"President Rong has known you for a long time. He knows who you are and won't misunderstand. If he really wants to investigate, let him do it. If he finds anything, I will come to apologize in person. Don't worry about it, just relax."
"I told the young lady the same thing, but she didn't listen. Now that the second young lady has said a few words, the young lady has listened to it. It seems that the second young lady has to be the one to persuade people." Shang Zimo said.
"I remember Zimo is in charge of the order management of the food court now, and he's in charge of dozens of people, right?" Qin Huiyin asked, "You're so busy, why are you still following the eldest lady?"
Tang Luwu looked up at Shang Zimo in confusion.
Shang Zimo said awkwardly: "She was frightened today, I came to see her. Now that the young lady is fine, I will go back to my room to rest."
After Shang Zimo left, Qin Huiyin sat on the swing next to Tang Luwu.
"When you saved Zimo, he was still a child, but now he has grown into a teenager. Why do people in our family always save the good-looking ones?" Qin Huiyin said, "He has been quite conscientious over the years. You saved him, and he has always protected you. But now that he has grown up, you have to care about his thoughts. Does he have plans to start a family? Does he have any ideas about making great achievements? You can't really treat him as a shadow.
"I didn't treat him like a shadow," Tang Luwu said. "I asked him about it. I told him to treat him like a younger brother, and if he needed anything, just tell me and I'd arrange it for him. But that kid has a very strange temper. I tried to talk to him out of good intentions, but he gave me a sour look for a few days."
Qin Huiyin chuckled.
"dare you laugh."
Tang Luwu asked her what she had done today. She was busy running around. Several times when she saw her, she disappeared before she had time to talk to her.
Qin Huiyin kicked the swing and started swinging with Tang Luwu.
"Something's happened to Young Master Li's family. I'm helping Sister Wan'er find a way to help her arrange things so that he won't suffer in prison."
The two sisters sat side by side on the swing and talked about things. After talking about things, they recalled the past. Although they had grown up a little, their hearts had not changed.
Outside the courtyard wall, Shang Zimo listened to the sounds inside and looked up at the bright moon in the sky.
What younger brother? Who wants to be a younger brother?
But, isn’t it time for him, who came from a humble background, to wake up from his dream?
