Tang Fusheng took a sip of tea from the cup, then placed the cup on the table. The cup made a noise when it hit the table.

The sound was not loud but it scared Tang Mengyan so much that she trembled all over. Bihe, who was standing beside Tang Mengyan with her head down, was so scared that she fell to her knees on the ground.

"Master, please calm down. It's all my fault! The young lady has nothing to do with it!" Bihe knelt on the ground, lowered her head in fear and begged for mercy.

Tang Fusheng glanced at her and ignored her, instead focusing his attention on his younger sister.

His voice was gentle but without any warmth: "Little sister, do you have to explain to me why you appeared in this town?"

Tang Mengyan swallowed and saw Tang Fusheng's expression, knowing that he was really angry.

She lowered her head and admitted her mistake in a low voice: "Brother, I know I was wrong..."

Tang Fusheng frowned and his voice suddenly became stern: "I ask you why you are here!"

Tang Mengyan was frightened and trembled: "I, I heard your conversation with Master Fang in Zuixianlou, so I brought Bihe here without permission..."

Her voice became weaker and weaker as she spoke, and the last few words were almost inaudible.

Tang Fusheng looked at his younger sister expressionlessly, and said in a lukewarm voice: "Have you met General Xiao?"

"Yes... Hey? Brother, you call Brother Xiao General? Does that mean that His Majesty is going to summon Brother Xiao back to the capital? Is he going to reinstate him?" Tang Mengyan suddenly raised her head and looked at Tang Fusheng in surprise, her tone full of joy.

This joy made him temporarily forget that his elder brother was still angry.

Hearing what she said, Tang Fusheng's face finally showed a trace of other expressions. He slammed the table fiercely and shouted angrily: "It's already this time, and you still care about this? Do you know that your recklessness almost ruined my big plan! It seems that I spoiled you too much on weekdays, and you turned into what you are now! Come on, tie up the young lady and lock her in the room on the second floor. Without my order, no one is allowed to bring her food. And Bihe, the same goes for you. All of you, reflect on your mistakes in the room!"

The servants around hurriedly stepped forward and tied up Tang Mengyan's hands, but they did not dare to use too much force for fear of hurting the young lady.

Tang Mengyan struggled in dissatisfaction: "Brother, you can't do this, I want to go back and tell my parents!"

"Sue me, go ahead and sue me when you get back. Just see if our parents will side with you or with me!" Veins popped out on Tang Fusheng's forehead. He was getting more and more troubled by this trouble-making sister of his.

"Shut her mouth!" Tang Fusheng waved his hand and stopped looking at her.

Tang Mengyan was gagged and locked in a room on the second floor, and Bihe was taken to a room far away from her.

Tang Fusheng was sitting downstairs, rubbing his brows with a headache. Suddenly, as if he remembered something, he called the guard beside him, whispered a few words to him, and then asked him to leave.

After the guards left, Tang Fusheng stood up and threw a bag of silver to the shopkeeper: "This is the money for the hotel. I'll take care of it. If what happened just now gets out..."

The shopkeeper nodded and assured, "Don't worry, sir. I will keep my mouth shut and I promise I won't tell anyone about what happened today. If I tell anyone, you can hold me accountable."

Tang Fusheng nodded with satisfaction, and then returned to the second floor to rest.

Wen Shutang and Xiao Yizhuo returned to the yard and just happened to meet Zhou Tong who was holding her child out to bask in the sun.

"Sister, brother-in-law, what happened outside just now? I heard a lot of noise." Zhou Tong leaned over and looked out the door while holding the child. She seemed to have heard a woman shouting just now.

Wen Shutang walked up to her, took Wen Jin from her arms, and teased the little baby with a smile: "It's nothing, just an irrelevant person, he's gone. It's so early in the morning, where is my eldest brother? Why are you the only one taking care of the child, sister-in-law?"

Zhou Tong is in a good mood. Since giving birth, she has become gentler and exudes the radiance of motherhood.

"Your eldest brother and father went to the fields. They said that if we don't work now, the crops will be ruined. Ayao and Yunliu got up early in the morning and went to the town. The store must be left unattended."

Hearing what she said, Xiao Yizhuo turned to the place where the farm tools were placed next to him: "Then I'll go over and help first."

"Well, remember to bring your eldest brother and father back for dinner around noon." Wen Shutang nodded and instructed.

Xiao Yizhuo responded, picked up the farm tools and turned to leave the yard.

Wen Shutang and Zhou Tong each held a child and sat in the yard to bask in the sun.

Wen Shutang looked down at Wen Jin's tender little face and couldn't help laughing: "Sister-in-law, I see that Jin'er is getting stronger and stronger now, and is completely different from when he was just born. Ah Heng is also getting cuter and cuter."

Zhou Tong was amused by her words: "Yes, children grow fast. It won't take long for them to grow up. They will definitely change their appearance in a few days."

Her eyes fell on Wen Jin in Wen Shutang's arms: "Your eldest brother and I, as well as your parents, always give Jin'er the best food first. Fortunately, this child is also hardworking and can eat well. Now he is getting healthier and healthier. You can't tell how thin he was back then."

"This proves that our Jin'er is a blessed little girl, right, huh?" Wen Shutang looked at Wen Jin with a smile and touched the little girl's hand with his finger, but she grabbed his little finger, as if trying to respond to her.

The two smiled at each other, and Zhou Tong said with some regret: "The days are passing by so fast. In a few days, these two children will be weaned."

"Yes, that's how life goes on day by day."

"Sometimes I envy you and Yun Liu for being able to go out and find jobs. Now I can only take care of the children at home, and when the children grow up, they will have to help take care of the family." Zhou Tong said with emotion.

Hearing what she said, Wen Shutang was slightly stunned, and suddenly an idea flashed through his mind.

"Hey, sister-in-law, why don't you go out too, just like the second sister-in-law."

"Me? I can't do it. How can I have Yun Liu's embroidery skills? My hands have been rough from doing farm work all year round." Zhou Tong smiled and waved her hands.

Wen Shutang was very interested in this matter: "That only means that embroidery is not suitable for you, sister-in-law, there must be something suitable for you. When the child is older, you will definitely be able to do your own thing. I have a good idea, do you want to listen to it, sister-in-law?"

Seeing Wen Shutang's mysterious look, Zhou Tong's curiosity was aroused by her, and she couldn't help asking, "What's a good idea?"

"I have a milk tea shop now, and I can hand it over to you directly." Wen Shutang said seriously.
