There is no need to say more about the rest. Duke Xiangguo already understood what Tang Mo meant. If he wanted to win the heart of a beauty, he had to become someone who surpassed Tang Rong, right?

This will definitely be effective in stimulating blessings.

Tang Mo said: "It's just a temporary measure, just for your reference, Lord."

Duke Xiangguo thought Tang Mo was a little interesting. "It's surprising that the Second Young Master is willing to take so much trouble for Zhu You."

"As long as the Third Young Master is safe and sound, that's all."

Tang Mo did not hide it, "To be honest, Duke, I rarely have the opportunity to work on behalf of the Marquis' Mansion, so I must do my best and see it through to the end."

Duke Xiangguo laughed. As an official in the same dynasty, he certainly knew what kind of person Tang Gang was. He thought highly of himself because of his father's glory and was not a polite person.

Moreover, he had inquired and found out that Doctor Hua was invited through the relationship of the Xin family. It seems that the second son of the Marquis's Mansion wants to establish himself. It is not a bad idea to find a time to sell him out to make Tang Gang feel aggrieved.

"Come to think of it, I haven't thanked you enough for your help in inviting Dr. Hua. When Zhu You gets better, I'll have him personally prepare a banquet to thank you."

Tang Mo cupped his hands, "I'll wait for that day."

"I have something else to do, so I won't bother you anymore."

"Send it to the Second Young Master."

After watching Tang Mo leave, Duke Xiangguo turned and went to the old Duke's courtyard. The next morning, Tang Mo received the news that Zhu You was sent to work in the farm of the Duke of Baili Foreign Affairs, and he was not allowed to bring any servants with him. His luggage consisted of a box of books, pens, and some clothes, shoes, and socks.

"I heard that he had to work in the fields every day, eat the food provided by the tenant farmers, wash his own clothes, and study. There was someone watching him."

Tang Mo sighed, "It's cruel enough, but this way Zhu You is exhausted every day, how can he have time to feel sad about the passing of time?"

Xin An put down the book in his hand and said, "People should not be too idle. It is easy to get sick if you are idle."

Tang Mo sighed, "Recently, the neighbors have been going out with a lot of followers and guards. I have no chance to take action. A drowning dog should be chased and beaten."

Xin An said that you can't always use the same method. "Just because you hit someone doesn't mean that others can't hit you. You have to know how to use the opponent's force to counter the opponent's force."

"Find a few people and beat up Zhao Wen and Ma Qi. This should be easy."

"What?"

Tang Mo thought he had heard wrongly, "Do you dislike those two people?"

"Why beat them for no reason?"

Xin An shook his finger, "What do you mean I hit them? It couldn't be the guy next door who did it?"

Tang Mo pondered for a moment, and the corners of his lips slowly rose, "This is a good idea."

Those two were in the same group as Zhu You, and they had once confronted Tang Rong in front of Tao's gate. It was normal for Tang Rong to send people to teach them a lesson to vent his anger afterwards.

"Both of them have some status and are shameless. How can they not retaliate after being beaten by their neighbors?"

Thinking of this, Tang Mo smiled, sat down and took the book that Xin An had just put down, "It seems that reading more books is indeed good."

These little dirty tricks come one after another, and it makes my scalp tingle just thinking about it.

"You're just going to ignore the fact that there's another pregnancy?"

"No hurries?"

Tao Yiran now lives behind closed doors, thinking that if he doesn't hear or see what happened in the past, it will disappear without a trace. Little does he know that he is just boiling a frog in warm water. "Didn't you say that the Duke of Xiangguo ruined the plan for Lord Tao to be sent out?"

"She can't go back to the Tao family. Although Zhu You went to Zhuangzi, how can the wife of the Duke of Xiangguo not hate him?"

"A mother will never say it's her son's fault. In order to restore Zhu You's reputation, she has to blame the neighbor for all the mistakes. Her reputation is completely ruined. Her mother deliberately locked her up in the mansion to take care of her pregnancy. She can't leave the mansion for a year or so. I'm waiting for her to give birth. I have to spend all my energy on Tang Rong, and let Tang Rong personally embarrass her and target her."

He raised his eyes and smiled at Tang Mo, "Husband and wife become enemies, father and son turn against each other, they both want to eat each other alive, how wonderful."

Tang Mo shuddered. What a vicious woman. "If you don't find it annoying, it's okay to take a look."

"Not annoying."

Xin An smiled, but the smile did not reach his eyes. "I live my good life and watch the fun in my spare time. What's there to be upset about?"

Tang Mo did not continue speaking, as he was vaguely worried about Xin An's condition, fearing that she only looked open-minded on the surface, but could not get over it in her heart.

If we consider the damage caused to them by the two neighbors, Xin An suffered much greater damage. So it seems that it was a blessing for him to die early.

"Bah~"

Xin An tilted his head, "What?"

"It's nothing, I just remembered something not so good."

Tang Mo came forward and said, "I have been paying attention to Prince Jin's affairs recently, but there is no news so far. I remember it was just recently."

"It's this time."

After so many years, neither of them can remember the exact date. Xin An said that in a few days, Yang, the manager of the farm, will come to collect his monthly salary. "It's not easy to survive in the winter in the capital. It's not easy to eat fresh vegetables. I plan to ask Yang to build a greenhouse to grow vegetables, and then ask Uncle Wang to build a greenhouse in Xin's house."

Speaking of winter vegetables, Tang Mo lamented about the price, "I remember a two-inch long cucumber cost one thousand coins, which is comparable to ginseng. Are you going to eat it yourself or sell it?"

"Of course, to sell it for money."

Xin An said she couldn't find any reason to let the neighbors eat for free, "The greenhouse needs to be burned day and night, which costs a lot of manpower and money. The price is high, so of course it needs to be recovered."

"The sundry shop on Yinghui Road will soon open. We will then sell the goods there and send some to the herbal medicine shop. This will be our signature dish."

"Of course, making money is secondary."

Scarcity makes things valuable. She wanted to use the crisp and tender green vegetables in winter to build closer relationships with the families and achieve great things with little money. "Just think of it as me growing vegetables for Prince Jin's palace in winter."

She will definitely be able to curry favor with Prince Jin’s Mansion.

"Why are you so concerned about Prince Jin's Mansion?"

Tang Mo was very curious. According to Xin An's current progress, she had already established a firm foothold in the circle of noble ladies in Beijing. Why should she bother to curry favor with anyone?

"Because Prince Jin is considered a fair man, and he doesn't have such great ambitions and desires."

Many years after the Second Prince ascended the throne, the Prince Jin's Mansion was still standing strong and occupied an important position in the court. She thought that such a backer was more reliable than the Second Prince.

Besides, having too many backers is not enough?

"Liao Zhi is on the path of military service, and you can only follow him on this path, but this goes against your grandfather's legacy. It's fine for you to gain experience, but I don't know how much Liao Zhi can help you if you want to move forward."

"If you have Prince Jin to support you and you work harder, it won't be difficult to surpass Tang Rong."

"A sedan chair needs people to carry it, so naturally the more people carry it, the better."

Tang Mo was touched, "So it was planned for me."

“How can people be so nice?”

Xin An raised his eyes and said, "Isn't it because I hope you'll be well that I and the Xin family will be well?"

"You are my hope, the hope of our Xin family."
