Chapter 139 Silver Ingots

Li sat in the carriage, looking at the seven cans of honey from time to time. When the carriage arrived at the entrance of the village, Butler Tang saw the carriage.

Butler Tang, who originally wanted to stay here for a while, seemed to be the wind blowing from the carriage, smelling the sweet smell.

This taste is very familiar, and it is the honey aroma of he has eaten pastries and drank chrysanthemum tea.

When he saw the carriage, he did not stop. He knew that it must be Li who was sitting in the carriage. He did not see the people inside, but knew the carriage in his house and the coachman who drove the carriage.

"Guard, let's go back to the city..." After a sudden order from Butler Tang, the guards who heard the orders led their horses out, and also led Butler Tang's horses out.

Before the housekeeper Tang got on the horse, he explained to Ye Senhai, who was working in the work of the workers, and got on the horse and chased the carriage.

Butler Tang followed two guards, and they rushed to run.

Ye Senhai was quite confused about Butler Tang who had only returned to the city for half an hour. He was half an hour earlier today, and he did not dare to ask Butler Tang what was going on in a hurry to go back.

Looking at their backs riding horses, I saw a carriage in front of their horses from afar, and saw them rushing to chase them.

Ye Senhai guessed that this might be a carriage from the Tang Mansion. He remembered his brother-in-law's family today to go to his father-in-law's house for birthday, and it might be that his sister-in-law was carrying the carriage.

As for why Butler Tang took his guards to chase the carriage, Ye Senhai understood that they protected Li in a protective way.

Li sat in the carriage and watched as he was about to get to the town, and heard more horses' hooves, and there were horses walking with their carriage.

Li opened the curtains of the carriage and looked outside. He saw the butler riding a horse on the left and two guards riding a horse on the right, which was a way of protecting walking.

"Butler Tang..."

Butler Tang was thinking about asking Li, but when he saw her greeting, he smiled and said:

"Haha, Mrs. Li, you are back this time, have you brought honey?"

"How did Butler Tang know?" Li's eyes were puzzled. Could it be that my husband told him in advance?

"Ho huh, the smell of honey candy floated out of the carriage. I didn't think it would work. I just smelled the smell of honey candy and chased them back."

"Butler Tang, I will also hand over the things back to the eldest lady."

"This is different. If someone knows the news and intercepts it at the door, you dare not refuse to give it, how can this be done?"

“This is also…”

Li knew that she had a low status in the Tang Mansion. There were so many masters in the Tang Mansion. If someone really intercepted her at the door, she couldn't deal with others. Don't mention giving money. If she caused some trouble for honey, she was really in a collapsed identity.

Don't dare to cause trouble.

Butler Tang thought so thoughtfully. With a grateful look, Li Shi said that this man who was older than her was very careful.

Butler Tang smiled when he saw Li's eyes and said, "I wonder how many kilograms of honey are in the carriage?"

"There are seven cans of honey, one of which is two pounds of honey nest. I heard that eating such honey nests is more beautiful, and it looks like a small can per pound."

After hearing Li's words, Butler Tang smiled and said, "It's been five kilograms before, but now it's more than eight kilograms. Not bad, although it can't be used for the cost of the mansion, please collect it first and use it.

It’s OK to give gifts.”

"Oh, butler Tang, please don't tell me that I brought honey. I heard people ask me about honey every day. Maybe there is not much honey produced, and I don't know where to buy honey.

Yes, it’s hard to refuse others!”

"Okay, I understand, I will give you the money for these honeys later."

"No, no, my husband said thank you for the gift you prepared for us today. Just treat these honey as a return gift!"

"How can this be done? We have gotten a big bargain and we will definitely give you the money. Don't refuse. Our family has great business and great fortune, but you are different."

"Oh..." Li thought it was true. If he hadn't received help today, his husband would pay for gifts, and that money would be rewarded by the Tang family.

"Give it, this is five taels of silver. We are getting a big bargain. I'm afraid you won't dare to accept it. Next time Mr. Li has honey, we have to buy it at a high price."

Butler Tang said as he threw out a silver dollar and five taels of silver from his pocket.

Li saw the silver dollars thrown into the carriage by Butler Tang. This was the most money she had received for the first time, and she had never touched the silver dollars.

She touched the silver dollar with her hand, cherishing the five taels of silver very much, and putting the silver into her pocket.

In order not to let others know, Butler Tang leaked the news and asked the uncle who was driving the carriage to keep his mouth shut and told the two guards not to speak out.

Do they dare not listen to Butler Tang’s words?

The coachman was actually quite puzzled. He transported Li and his family throughout the whole process. Where did this family buy honey?

Could it be in that tile kiln? Oh, by the way, when he saw that the tile kiln was washed, he thought the boss was so diligent and sold tile kilns to help wash.

The coachman's guess did not tell Mr. Tang.

Butler Tang did not enter through the gate with his guards this time, but he also entered through the side door.

Li took her little bag and got out of the car first, and then ignored honey and went back to the young master's yard first. He was very worried about the young master for a day.

The housekeeper and the guard entered the side door, asked the person guarding the gate to watch the horse, called the coachman and the two guards, and asked them to hold two clay pots of honey each, and he carried a can of honey each, and sent the things into the warehouse first.

Those who are sent to the warehouse and are asked to manage the warehouse should not tell others about honey. Even if someone knows about honey, they cannot take out these honey.

The woman who manages the warehouse and the accounting office keeper, after hearing the butler's words, they nodded and agreed respectfully.

The power of Butler Tang, the management of affairs in the mansion, and the business outside the master and the young master, was very trusted by the master and the young master. His power was greater than that of ordinary masters who had no authority in the mansion.

The eldest lady had to listen to everything in the house, and the eldest lady also handed over many things to Butler Tang, such as purchasing.

When the coachman carried out the clay pots on the carriage, he was quite puzzled. He had seen Li and his husband buy more than 20 small clay pots in the tiled kiln, but he had never counted about how many of them were.

When Li returned home, she did not carry out the clay pots, and her husband and family did not carry out the clay pots. So where did those clay pots go?

The coachman dared not say much in front of Butler Tang, and buried this matter in his heart.

Butler Tang ordered the officials and asked the guards to lead the horse to the horse shed.

He came to the eldest lady's yard with joy, entered the living room, and saw that the eldest lady was giving instructions to a woman in charge.

He went in and stood aside and waited for them to finish the talk. A maid saw Butler Tang coming in and served him tea.

The eldest lady met Butler Tang and came back half an hour earlier than usual.
