Chapter 339 Luck is also part of the skill
Tang Gang learned that the emperor was here to give porridge, and thinking that his porridge this year would definitely come out on top, he shamelessly invited the emperor to sit in the Marquis Mansion.
The emperor became interested again and went out of the capital to visit his ministers' homes. Tang Gang's smiling face had two more folds.
Sure enough, as soon as we arrived at the gate of the Hou Mansion, we saw that there were more people queuing up than other houses. Those people still poured the porridge themselves, and after finishing the porridge, they took the porridge themselves. There were two of them, and no one took more. The emperor after getting off the car found it interesting. , let Eunuch Zhao finish the porridge.
"Heh, it's quite thick."
Tang Gang respectfully said something that he would not forget to uphold his father's legacy, and shamelessly took the credit for himself. Unfortunately, no one came to stop him at this time, and he could only let him put money in his face.
The emperor heard that some people were grateful to the Hou Mansion. Eunuch Zhao sent someone to talk to the people and learned that the porridge had been so thick since the day he gave out the porridge. The emperor was very satisfied with Tang Gang.
I think he didn't forget his roots.
"Your Majesty, please come inside."
Tang Gang, who was in excitement, carefully invited the emperor into the palace. The emperor did not want to disturb the people in the palace. He only said to say a few words to the old lady and then go to the courtyard of the Hou's mansion.
In the Chunrong Hall of the old lady, a group of female relatives were sitting, talking and laughing. The emperor heard the laughter before he even entered. Tang Gang hurriedly sent someone in to deliver the message, and earnestly invited the emperor to come inside.
When they learned that the emperor was coming, all the female relatives in the room were shocked. Mrs. Zhao actually wanted to hide with a few girls, but Mrs. Wang held her back and said that she would just follow him to say hello, and then lowered her head without looking around.
This is the backyard, and I don’t think the emperor will stay too long.
The emperor didn't feel it was right until everyone had entered, but he went in anyway. The old lady had already brought a room full of female relatives to greet him. As soon as he knelt down, the emperor stretched out his hand to support him, "I'm here so abruptly, old lady, you don't need to say anything." present."
"The arrival of the Emperor is a blessing to the Marquis, and the courtesy cannot be discarded."
After the old lady bowed, Mrs. Wang helped her up.
The emperor didn't go into the house to sit. He just stood in the courtyard and said a few words to the old lady. He asked the old lady if she was still feeling well, and said that Tang Gang was doing a good job and that the old lady was a good teacher. He also said that Tang Mo Yes, he has the style of the old marquis and so on.
The old lady was happy and knew that it was time to carry out the deceased old man. She said a few old sayings and expressed her loyalty. The emperor was very pleased and said that the Hou Mansion had done a good job in giving soup this year. The old lady She smiled and said that it was all the credit of her daughter-in-law and grandson-in-law, which was true in the first place, and besides, it was the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who worked really hard, and they should be thought of, and what they wanted was a happy family.
But Tang Gang's expression changed. Xin An quickly glanced at it and made a guess in his heart. He added, "It's all what my father meant. My father said that when my grandfather was alive, he was most concerned about the suffering of the people, which made my mother-in-law and I My mother will do the porridge thing more seriously, and I can save the extra rice at home."
Mrs. Wang also smiled and said yes. Tang Gang felt at ease this time and felt that the second daughter-in-law was still aware of current affairs and taking the overall situation into consideration.
The emperor couldn't help but praise Tang Gang a few more times. As for the girls standing with lowered eyes, the emperor just glanced at them without asking any more questions, and then said he would go and see the courtyard of the Hou Mansion.
Tang Gang led the way, and Wang's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law followed behind. Seeing the colorful chrysanthemums blooming in the yard, and the decoration of plum blossoms, and the faint fragrance of wintersweet, the emperor was in a good mood, "Although your yard is not big, it is well-kept. That’s fine.”
Tang Gang reciprocated the favor and said that Xin An was taking care of the yard. "Ministers will come and sit here in their free time. The fragrance of the garden makes people feel comfortable."
Seeing a pavilion located in it, the emperor strolled away. The charcoal basin was placed in the Chunrong Hall with the emperor's support. Tea, water, melons and fruits were also available. Manager Zhang was always meticulous in his work.
"Everyone, take a seat."
The emperor thought that the courtyard was really nice, as was the imperial garden, but it was not interesting to see too much. The Marquis Mansion was still new at first glance.
The emperor raised his eyes and looked at Xin An, "Commander Liao sent two pots of pink chrysanthemums to the palace. The Lin family said she also had some. Was it you?" Xin An replied with a smile, "It was Mrs. Liao who gave me the seedlings. The gardener took good care of them. I saw the beautiful flowers and gave them to Sister Lin in two pots. She loves novel flowers the most. "
"Are you familiar with Mrs. Liao?"
"Mrs. Liao and I usually come from merchant families, so we can talk about it together."
Xin'an was a little nervous. She couldn't even look the emperor in the eye. How could she guess what he was thinking, so she could only answer carefully.
"I heard that you guys even started a business together. Is the business going well?"
The emperor seemed to be chatting about ordinary things, but Xin An had to be alert and respond, "I have a shop with five rooms in a row. The Lin family has caravans traveling to and from the capital to sell goods, so we jointly opened a grocery store. It’s quite complete, and the business has been good since it opened a few years ago, making small profits but quick turnover.”
"I was born into a businessman's family and have been influenced by it since childhood. Even women have a talent for business. That's good."
The emperor smiled and drank tea, and Xin An's heart skipped a beat, "It's only the kindness of my grandmother and the generosity of my father and mother that allowed me to act like this."
The emperor laughed again. Just when Xin An felt relieved, Tang Rong came. It should be said that he was summoned by someone sent by Tang Gang.
Seeing him step forward and salute respectfully, Xin An wisely stood up and gave up his position.

The emperor did not give up his seat, so Tang Rong could only stand respectfully. Tang Gang spared no effort to speak for Tang Rong, saying that even when he was idle at home, he would not forget to study knowledge, sort out the errands he had done earlier, and gain experience from them. Enlightenment.
"Wei Chen thought that after the New Year, he would find another job for him, so that he could have the opportunity to share the emperor's worries."
He thought that if the emperor personally assigned him an errand, it would be much better than trying to get it himself. However, the emperor did not relent and only praised Tang Rong for his ambition.
You must know that the emperor has always looked down upon people who rely on family operations to get jobs. Although there are many such people, but in order to be recognized by him, you must first show real ability, like Tang Mo.
Tang Rong is obviously not among them. He has a lot of fame and no useful one.
But he still gave Tang Gang face and asked Tang Rong if he had any insights. If Tang Rong had any insights, it would mean that Tang Mo was threatening him and must be eradicated as soon as possible.
Seeing that he always talked about being diligent and cautious, the emperor lost interest and felt that it was really useless.
Forget it if you're not good at it, it's just bad luck. You must know that the court officials also attach great importance to the official's luck. If you are unlucky yourself, don't contaminate the country's luck.
Luck is also part of the skill.
"I heard that there are some outstanding boys coming to the house?"
Xin'an couldn't help but want to laugh. Tang Gang had been busy for a long time and finally wanted to benefit others. At this moment, he must be feeling aggrieved.
Fortunately, Tang Gang could hold his own and his expression did not change. He even praised the five men and sent people to call them all.
