Qin Wanru said in a deep voice: "But this is like dancing on a tightrope. If we don't pay attention, we will be in danger."
"There is no way, unless we completely give up this piece of Chu family's foundation, we can only bite the bullet and persist," Chu Zhongtian looked out the window at the Chu Mansion in the night and said in a deep voice, "And the experience of past dynasties tells us that now
If we have the ability to resist, we still have a choice; if we really give up early, not only will the Chu family's foundation not be able to be saved, but we and countless people who rely on the Chu family will have no choice but to be eaten by mermaids, so I must hold on.
"
Qin Wanru patted her husband on the shoulder, and couldn't help but feel distressed when she saw the white hair faintly visible on his temples. You must know that her husband has a high level of cultivation and is in his prime at this age. As a result, he worries about the affairs of the Chu family day and night, which makes him prematurely
Huafa.
Fortunately, Chu Yan has helped him a lot these years, but Chu Yan will not follow in her father's footsteps.
I hope he can help Chu Yan share the burden in the future.
But when she thought of Zu An, a picture couldn't help but appear in her mind, and her cheeks instantly heated up.
He spat secretly to drive those random thoughts out of his mind, and then said to his husband: "But it is still too risky to help the Wang family this time. Sang Hong is worried that he can't find a reason to deal with us. Isn't this just giving away the handle?"
Chu Zhongtian also looked worried: "But there is nothing we can do if we don't help. The Wang family has been an ally of the Chu family for many years. They have had too many things happen this year. If we don't help, the Wang family will really be doomed."
"Now in Mingyue City, the Yuan family and the Zheng family are not dealing with us, so we rely on the Wang family to be our rivals. If they collapse, our future situation will be even more difficult."
"And if we sit back and watch our allies get into trouble without helping us, then who will dare to cooperate with us in the future? Wouldn't it indirectly push others to Sang Hong's side?"
Qin Wanru nodded: "I also know this, but the risk of misappropriating the advance salt this time is too great. If even a little bit of news leaks, we will be in trouble."
Chu Zhongtian held his wife's cold hand and felt the worry in her heart: "Don't worry, most of the Salt Transport Envoys are our people, so there should be no problem."
Yan Yun made the whole company have a good relationship with the Chu family, which is why Wang Fu dared to make such suggestions before.
"I hope so." Qin Wanru let out a long sigh. Although her husband's hands were warm, her heart was still cold.
The next morning, Zu An woke up feeling refreshed. After washing up, he suddenly saw many maids and slaves running towards a certain direction outside the window, and he couldn't help but feel curious.
By chance, I saw Cheng Shou Ping among them, and hurriedly grabbed me: "What are you doing?"
Cheng Shouping said excitedly: "Of course I'm going to see Miss Qiu. I heard that Miss Qiu is combing her hair by the window. She is absolutely beautiful."
In fact, not only the servants but also many maids went there. After all, they had never had the chance to go to a place like Shenxianju in their lives, and Qiu Honglei's reputation was too famous. They were all curious about how beautiful the oiran of this Shenxianju was.
"That's right, let's go together." Zu An was thinking about how Qiu Honglei came to the door yesterday to give information and show her love. Although he knew that she had other intentions, it would be too unkind not to respond.
.
Cheng Shouping couldn't help but muttered: "Uncle, what are you so anxious about? They are all yours anyway. You can watch them every day from now on."
Zu An had a dark look on his face: "Why, do you still think I'm holding you back by walking too slowly?"
Cheng Shouping hurriedly said with a flattering look on his face: "How dare you, young man? I'm going this way."
When the two of them arrived at the small building where Qiu Honglei lived, a circle of people had gathered outside, making various sounds of swallowing saliva and envious voices, which finally merged into the most sincere praise for Qiu Honglei's charm.
"want

I want to die, it’s so beautiful.”
"Maybe it's because she smiles a lot. She feels more beautiful than the eldest lady."
"How can there be such a beautiful woman in the world? Look at her beautiful red lips. We can only be called eating tools."
"Hey, so we have to be maids."
"When Sister Xue'er was here, she could still give our maid a face, but it's a pity that Sister Xue'er is no longer here either."
…
"Uncle, come here, the location is good." Cheng Shouping had been running around like a rabbit cleverly for a long time. He quickly found the best place to watch, and waved to Zu An as if he was offering a treasure.
"Come on!" Zu An looked scornful, then swaggered through the crowd and walked inside.
Only then did Cheng Shouping realize that with the relationship between his uncle and Miss Qiu, there was no need to look at him secretly like them.
Hey, my uncle is so happy!
But why do I feel like crying?
Zu An walked in all the way, and many people were squeezed in. He was immediately very dissatisfied:
"Who is this so arrogant?"
"Oh, it turns out to be my uncle."
"What uncle, what happened between him and the eldest lady? No one in this house knows."
…
Hearing the whispers around him, Zu An didn't have any mood swings at all. Now that his vision has improved a long time ago, how could he be as knowledgeable as these guys?
"Hey, my uncle is so brave. He actually dares to openly come to Miss Qiu to show his courtesy. Who is Miss Qiu? How can she pay attention to him?"
Although many people knew that Qiu Honglei came to the Chu Mansion yesterday, most people didn't know exactly what happened and why she came.
Everyone in the Chu family speculated that it was either the eldest lady who invited her, or the master and his wife who invited her to perform some kind of show. Who would have thought of other possibilities.
Just when those were pointing, Qiu Honglei by the window had already seen him, a surprise smile suddenly appeared on her face, and then she ran out happily holding her skirt.
The whispers of those people before suddenly stopped. The scene in front of them was really impactful.
The beautiful Qiu Honglei of Mingyue City actually ran to Zu'an with the shy attitude of a little daughter looking at her lover?
Why?
damn it.
The anger value from the servants is +66+66+66...
"Azu, you're here." Qiu Honglei came to Zu An and stopped, showing a flowery smile. Although she had a fight with Pei Mianman last night, there was no trace of fatigue or sleepiness on her face at this time.
The meaning is still shining brightly.
"I should have come to see you last night, but I was afraid it would be too late and you wouldn't open the door for me." Zu An said with a smile.
Qiu Honglei looked at him with flashing big eyes: "I will definitely ignore other men who come to me in the middle of the night, but if Azu comes to me, I will definitely welcome you at any time."
Looking at her flawless and stunning face, Zu An was in a trance for a while. He knew clearly that what she said was false, but he couldn't help but be moved when he saw such a beautiful woman with such a sincere look on her face.
However, there was only a moment of confusion. He quickly woke up and hugged her waist: "Haha, since we are here, let everyone get to know each other."
When the other party put his arm around her waist, Qiu Honglei froze, but after a moment of hesitation, she still didn't resist. Instead, she said with a smile: "If you hold me like this in the Chu family, you won't be afraid of your wife being jealous. Yesterday she
I'm so angry, is Miss Chu okay?"
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
She secretly thought in her heart that if Chu Chuyan really had some shortcomings, it would be more beneficial to her plan.
Of course, she couldn't die right away. It would be best to stay in the hospital bed for a year or two. After she helped Zu An gain a foothold in the Chu family, she would be able to legitimately control the Chu family if she died.
As if he had read through her thoughts, Zu An chuckled: "Don't worry, you won't die."
Then, with the other party's astonished expression, he hugged her and came to the crowd: "Let me introduce to everyone, this is Qiu Honglei from Shenxianju. Isn't she pretty?"
The hearts of those around him were broken when they saw him hugging the other person's waist tightly, while Qiu Honglei was still cuddling up to her without resisting.
This guy must have deliberately come to show off in front of us.
The anger value from the servants of the Chu family is +99+99+99...
Qiu Honglei was a little strange and didn't understand the meaning of what he did. She thought maybe he had been suppressed at home for too long and wanted to take this opportunity to feel proud.
She felt relieved when she thought of this, and greeted everyone with a smile: "Hello everyone, I am Qiu Honglei."
Although her smile and language are very formulaic, how can these little maids resist after being trained in a place like Shenxianju for a long time?
Everyone was fascinated and fascinated.
"Azu, it's time for us to meet Mr. Chu and Miss Chu, right?" Qiu Honglei said quietly, obviously she had no interest in these ordinary servants and maids.
"No rush." Zu An smiled and pulled her to come to the crowd. How could Zu An be willing to let go of such a good opportunity to earn anger points, "By the way, Hong Lei, I haven't introduced our house to you yet.
Where are these handsome guys and beauties? This one belongs to our family... Hey, buddy, what’s your name?”
The anger value from Jia Dingjia is +666!
The people around were dumbfounded. You don’t even know me, so why are you introducing me to Miss Qiu?
I'm afraid you didn't bring her to show off in front of us on purpose, right?
The anger value from the servants is +99+99+99...
Zu An beamed, and in just one cup of tea, he was worth tens of thousands of anger.
It seems that finding more confidantes to earn anger points is indeed a shortcut. Why am I so smart?
Qiu Honglei on the side was also a little speechless. She didn't know why the other party would do such a thing. In her opinion, such an action was a villain's ambition, and she couldn't help but feel a little contempt in her heart.
Forget it, for the sake of the great cause of teaching, I will tolerate this guy for a while longer.
At this moment, a maid came to announce: "Miss Qiu, the eldest lady invites you to come and have dinner with me."
"Sister Chu, I'm very happy to invite you." Qiu Honglei smiled, but she was quite surprised in her heart. Yesterday, Chu Chuyan looked so angry that she was obviously seriously injured, which might be life-threatening. How could she spend so much time in one night?
Enough?
Anyway, I just went to meet her this time to find out more about her.
At this time, Zu An also said: "It turns out that my wife is inviting you to have breakfast, so let me join you."
The details of Qiu Hong's tears are unknown, and now that Chu Chuyan is recovering from a serious injury, he really doesn't worry about the two of them meeting alone.
The maid looked embarrassed: "But the eldest lady didn't say to invite my uncle, she just asked me to invite Miss Qiu."
There were many servants and maids around looking at him with gloating eyes.
Humph, it makes you so embarrassed that you forget that you are just a visiting uncle.
Are you exposed in front of Miss Qiu now?
