Chapter 226
The words are actually good words, but the tone is really uncomfortable.

Tang Luoyu didn't know that this person was referring to herself, so she subconsciously turned her head to look over, and saw that the person looked bright and majestic, but his expression was contrived and pretentious.

And what that person is holding in his hand seems to be the set of ruby ​​hair she gave.

On the opposite side, Mrs. Marquis of Wu'an also seemed a little uneasy, and reprimanded her daughter-in-law in a serious voice: "Why are you showing off the gift from others?"

"It's the daughter-in-law's fault." The daughter-in-law who was serving by her side lowered her eyebrows, as if she didn't dare to disobey her mother-in-law in public.

"Madam Tai said that," the woman smiled and put down the big hairpin in her hand, "My sister Yang Jingru showed it to me, I have never seen such a big hairpin before, let her open my eyes. "

"Now you have seen it too," Mrs. Marquis Wu'an hadn't seen it for a while, she glanced at the nanny beside her, "Take it down."

Seeing that the things were taken down, the woman glanced in Tang Luoyu's direction, and then said: "I really don't know whose family gave them such rich and expensive things, but they look a bit clumsy, and it's not easy to wear them. In the future The heirloom is pretty good."

This is really ugly, the jewelry itself is for wearing, it looks clumsy and can only be passed down to the family.

Doesn't that mean that Tang Luoyu's nouveau riche aesthetic can only give some yellow and white stuff?

And before this man spoke, he took a special look at Tang Luoyu, obviously he meant to tell her what he said.

Tang Luoyu was not in a hurry to look at his nose, nose, mouth, and mouth, but quietly looked at the teacup in his hand, as if he had already settled down.

It's just that the man seemed to come here specially to trouble Tang Luoyu. Seeing that Tang Luoyu didn't respond, he continued to speak: "I really don't know whose family it belongs to. It's really enviable for us to be so rich as a birthday present."

"When my sister reaches the age of the old lady, there will naturally be such a precious tribute from the younger generation." Mrs. Bai has already sensed the hostility in the other party's words, and knows the origin of this person, "I just don't know my sister Is there such a blessing as the old matriarch, who has a capable son who can give the old mother orders?"

After all, Tang Luoyu was brought in by her, so she naturally had to protect her.

And these words are very poignant, the one Tang Luoyu is not happy with is the wife of Zhang Shutong, the attendant of the Imperial Academy, who has been married for many years and still has no children.

"You!" Seeing that Mrs. Zhang was about to burst into flames, she looked at Mrs. Bai with red eyes, then closed her eyes, took a deep breath before speaking, "Yes, I am not as lucky as the old lady. It’s better than having a daughter and only having to recruit a wife, and when everyone’s career is cheaper, others will be stronger!”

Naturally, this remark is heartbreaking. After all, Mrs. Bai is an only daughter. Although Bai Changlin is not considered a married woman, she and his wife have only had one daughter for many years, and they have married the number one scholar in the current department.

Before Mrs. Bai could continue, Mrs. Zhang on the opposite side continued to say: "After all, I still dislike my son-in-law's lack of wealth. Otherwise, why would I pick up a merchant woman? Can we really hit it off? It's not because of the wealth of the family. Yes, the barbarians in northern Xinjiang have heard it!"

After saying this, the surroundings suddenly became noisy.

Not many people know that Tang Luoyu is a merchant woman, but they know that her family has a lot of property and her husband is also promising. Now that Jane is in Emperor Xin, she was transferred to the Ministry of Industry as Yuanwailang after just two months in the Imperial Academy. Compared with the number one son-in-law of the Bai family, he must be appointed as an official first.

Now that Mrs. Zhang said this, all the guests at the banquet knew Tang Luoyu's identity.

At this time, Mrs. Bai also looked at Mrs. Bai with some scrutiny.

Everyone knows Bai Changlin's two-sleeved breeze. Now that Mrs. Bai is protecting Tang Luoyu so much, who wouldn't think too much about it?
Yes, even if your two husbands are senior brothers, you can't be so close, right?How long have we known each other?

Mrs. Bai was a little embarrassed, and she couldn't speak rashly at this time, after all, no matter how she explained this matter, it seemed like she was trying to cover it up.

At this moment, Tang Luoyu stood up with a peaceful smile on his face.

"My family is indeed a merchant, but what can a merchant do?" Tang Luoyu said, with a neither humble nor overbearing voice, "My family has never paid a penny less in taxes. Even if my husband is famous, my family still pays taxes in full."

As soon as she said this, everyone started whispering again.

After all, having an official status means that one can avoid paying taxes to a certain extent. This is well known, but Tang Luoyu dared to say it out loud.

Either she's a complete idiot, or it's a real thing.

Just looking at Tang Luoyu's appearance, he doesn't look like an idiot at all.

She glanced around and looked at the officials and wives around her, with a slightly mocking smile on her face: "Since the time of Taizu, it has been clearly stipulated that merchants can also participate in the imperial examination, no different from scholars, farmers and workers, and it has been several years ago Why do you all still have prejudices and disdain today?"

"My ancestors in the Tang family have been in business since the beginning, and I have never bullied the market, bought and sold by force, and were unkind to the rich." Tang Luoyu looked at Mrs. Zhang, her voice was not loud, but very powerful, "I also help the village in bad years and pity the poor." Help the weak, there is still a plaque written by the county magistrate in my house for charity!"

Tang Luoyu glanced around again, and the officials and wives all looked at her differently: "I have taken over the family business, and I have been conscientious, hardworking and frugal, and I have done a good job. There is nothing you can't say to others. If you have any doubts, feel free Go to the Jingzhaoyin Yamen to sue me, and I will accompany you at any time! But if you are someone who is suspicious and thinks you are superior, then don't bother me."

Then Tang Luoyu looked at Mrs. Wu'an Houtai who was sitting in the main seat, and apologized to her: "Today is the old lady's birthday, and Luo Yu has gone a little too far. I would like to apologize to you here. It's just that Luo Yu is really good at some people's qualities. If you don’t want to join forces with it, this side will retreat first!”

Then he took a leisurely look at Mrs. Zhang, turned around and left.

From the moment Tang Luoyu opened her mouth, Mrs. Zhang stared at her all the time. When she finished speaking, she was about to have a fit when she heard Mrs. Wu'an Houtai cough lightly: "Okay, let's start the banquet."

Even if she had thousands of words, she could only swallow them back.

Inadvertently found that Mrs. Wu'an Hou Tai was staring at him, just one glance made people feel cold all over, and he didn't dare to say anything more.

Tang Luoyu left the banquet and was about to go home, he sighed a little tiredly, holding the piano to see her coming out, he was still a little surprised, before he could ask what was going on, he heard a familiar male voice behind him.

"Siblings?" Tang Luoyu looked back, it was Jing Shan, who was looking at herself in surprise, "Are you... wanting to leave?"
