Poor Family: I reached the top by marrying a wife

Chapter 272: Young Master 2 is here!

Just when Mr. Xue San was confused, Xue Wenyan sighed and asked.

When Mr. Xue San heard what Xue Wenyan said, his face suddenly changed!

Sure enough, did his second uncle notice this?

"What's wrong? You don't know about this?"

Just as Mr. Xue San was thinking, Xue Wenyan looked at him with a frown.

When Mr. Xue San heard what Xue Wenyan said, he became even more nervous.

He really didn't know how to answer!

If he told the truth and told his second uncle about Jiang Chen and Xue Bin, then his second uncle would most likely think that Xue Bin's death was related to Jiang Chen!

But Third Master Xue actually always felt that this should not have been done by Jiang Chen!

Jiang Chen shouldn’t be so cruel!

Besides, even if Jiang Chen did it for Xue Linglong's sake, he wouldn't do this, right?

However, if he didn't tell these things, he would still have trouble explaining himself to his second uncle...

"Uncle, I know about this matter... but I'm not very clear about the details. I only know that Jiang Chen and Xue Bin seem to have some minor conflicts."

Mr. Xue thought about it again and again, and finally said this.

This small conflict shouldn't make Xue Wenyan feel that Jiang Chen killed Xue Bin, right?

"Just a minor conflict?"

Xue Wenyan frowned slightly, looking a little doubtful.

Seeing this, Third Master Xue hurriedly said, "Yes, Second Uncle, it's just a small conflict."

"You know Bin'er's personality. He has always been somewhat dissatisfied with Jiang Chen."

"But Jiang Chen has been tolerating it for the sake of you and Linglong."

"He...won't do anything to Bin'er."

Mr. Xue's words were already telling Xue Wenyan in a very subtle way that what happened to Xue Bin was not done by Jiang Chen.

And Xue Wenyan naturally understood what the other party meant.

……

"Okay, Uncle Er knows about this."

"You go down first. Don't leave the county town recently." Xue Wenyan said lightly.

"Yes!"

When Mr. Xue San heard what Xue Wenyan said, he finally felt relieved.

Presumably, his second uncle would not doubt Jiang Chen at this time, right?

But what Mr. Xue San didn’t know was that as soon as he left, his second uncle came looking for Mr. Xue!

"master!"

When Xue Da saw Xue Wenyan, he bowed respectfully to him.

"Xue Da, go to Zhoujia Village again. I don't care what method you use, you must find Zheng He and investigate the matter thoroughly!"

"Otherwise, you don't have to come back!"

Xue Wenyan said coldly.

The cold tone frightened Xue Da so much that he trembled all over.

"Yes!"

Xue Da accepted the order respectfully and then hurried out.

He knew that Xue Wenyan was serious this time.

If he doesn't handle things properly, he'll probably be dead!

Thinking of this, Xue Da felt a chill.

However, Xue Wenyan's expression in the study was extremely complicated!

"Jiang Chen, is it really you?"

"But why are you doing this?"

"Isn't my kindness to you, plus Linglong, enough for you to let Bin'er go?"

Although Xue Wenyan was not sure that it was Jiang Chen, as long as there was a possibility, he would investigate it thoroughly!

Not long after Xue Da left, the housekeeper hurried to the door of the study.

"Master, that... that Zhang Tao is here, and he's clamoring to see you!"

"Zhang Tao?"

Xue Wenyan frowned slightly.

Ever since Mu Qingqing scolded Zhang Tao last time, Zhang Tao became depressed and hasn't come to see him for a long time.

Now, how dare Zhang Tao come to him?

Is there any news from the capital?

However, he did not receive a reply from Eunuch Zhang!

……

Although Xue Wenyan looked down on Zhang Tao, he still came to the hall and asked the housekeeper to bring Zhang Tao in.

"Haha, Lord Xue, long time no see!"

Zhang Tao walked into the room with a swagger, with a very arrogant look on his face!

"this……?"

When Xue Wenyan saw this scene, he couldn't help but frown slightly.

Zhang Tao looks like he has something to rely on!

Could it be that Eunuch Zhang gave the other party some authority?

"Haha, it's been a long time. Someone, come and serve tea to Master Zhang!"

Xue Wenyan smiled faintly.

But as soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Tao spoke up to stop him!

"no!"

"Master Xue, I'm not here for tea, I'm here to inform you of something!"

"Notify me of something?" Xue Wenyan's face was slightly stunned.

"Not bad!"

Zhang Tao said proudly, "This afternoon, the Second Young Master will come to Luzhou County. Please ask Master Xue to call Mu Qingqing over so that we can welcome the Second Young Master together!"

"I guess Master Xue won't refuse, right?"

"Second Young Master!?"

Xue Wenyan's face changed drastically!

He finally understood why Zhang Tao was so arrogant!

It turned out that the other party’s backer had arrived!

Eunuch Zhang did not tell him that the second young master was coming to Luzhou County.

Could it be that Eunuch Zhang wants to hand over the honeycomb charcoal to this second young master for management?

Xue Wenyan knew this second young master. He did not hold an official position, but he was in charge of 50% of the assets under Eunuch Zhang.

The other 50% is in the hands of the Tenth Young Master.

Now, the arrival of the second young master must have bad intentions!

Thinking of this, Xue Wenyan's face became extremely solemn!

……

However, when Zhang Tao saw Xue Wenyan's look, he was extremely proud!

Some time ago, Xue Wenyan and Mu Qingqing actually dared to be rude to him!

This is simply courting death!

Today, he must teach these two a lesson no matter what!

Zhang Tao left arrogantly.

But after Zhang Tao left, Xue Wenyan's face became extremely ugly.

If he really handed over the honeycomb charcoal, then just like what Mu Qingqing said, he might really have to stop here!

This……

"Butler! Go and ask Miss Mu to come over!"

Xue Wenyan hurriedly sent someone to invite Mu Qingqing.

He really didn't know what to do in the current situation!

Soon, Mu Qingqing also arrived at Xue Wenyan's house.

"Master Xue, why are you looking for me so urgently? Is there something wrong?"

Mu Qingqing smiled faintly after seeing Xue Wenyan.

Xue Wenyan hasn't looked for her in the past few days and has been very quiet.

Now, is there any news from the capital?

Zhang Tao is just a minor character, so I guess... he can't cause any trouble, right?

"Miss Mu! Something terrible has happened!"

"Eunuch Zhang's second son has come to Luzhou County in person and will arrive this afternoon!"

Xue Wenyan said anxiously.

"Eunuch Zhang's second son?"

Mu Qingqing frowned slightly when she heard that.

Isn’t that Zhang Tao’s backer?

Could it be that Eunuch Zhang sent this second young master?

Mu Qingqing was also feeling a little confused at this moment.

Could it be that Eunuch Zhang learned about the relationship between Jiang Chen and General Luo, so he was worried about Jiang Chen being in charge of the honeycomb charcoal?

But that's okay too.

In the letter Jiang Chen gave her before leaving, there was a recipe for honeycomb charcoal. That was the one Jiang Chen used to deceive Eunuch Zhang.

If it really doesn't work, just call them out.

Moreover, even if it was handed over, it would not affect Jiang Chen's continued sales of honeycomb charcoal.

However, the relationship with Eunuch Zhang may become strained.

This... is a bit difficult to deal with.
