Xie Chaoxi’s car drove smoothly from Xie Fang.
The nausea-ridden anxiety in my heart faded away, and Xie Chaoxi’s car gradually disappeared from the corner.
Xie Fang whispered, “Old Xu, drive.”
“Yes, Second Young Master.” Old Xu started the car.
Because the Chaoer Lane was particularly narrow, Lao Xu also drove very carefully.
Xie Fang looked at the direction of the disappearing rear of the car and asked, “The Third Young Master often comes back with the eldest Young Master.”
Before he went to Fucheng, he rarely saw his third brother walking with his eldest brother, let alone the two of them took the same car together.
Old Xu held his hands on the steering wheel, drove the car intently, thought for a while, and replied distractedly: “Well, it’s not often, occasionally. The third young master seems to be busy with art exhibitions. For example, art exhibitions must require a lot of money. The third young master probably invested money.
It’s strange that the third young master should not be short of money, but I often heard from the maids that the third young master seemed to borrow money from the eldest young master to make money and turn over…”
Old Xu was quick-talking and told all the news he knew. It was almost finished when I remembered that the Second Young Master used to dislike the people around them the most “provoking trouble” and stopped talking.
“It’s nothing. I’ve been away from home for a long time, and I don’t know much about the many things that happened in the mansion. You pick and talk to me.”
The big family like the Xie family, the news is transmitted the fastest among servants, maids or drivers.
What’s more, it’s such a big thing as the third young master hosting an art exhibition. As for the third young master who invested money, it was mostly maids and servants who chatted, and was heard by Lao Xu, who was a driver, or a few servants chatted with each other.
Old Xu looked at the second young master in the back seat with some surprise, “Yes, second young master.”
…
From Old Xu, Xie Fang learned that since he went to Fucheng, the third brother had often gone to and from the eldest brother’s yard.
Because the elder brother often pays money to hold some modern parties, or rewards the leading actresses of the opera troupe in the name of the third brother.
The two had much closer interactions than when he was in the mansion.
As the third young master of the Xie family, the third brother has a lot of money to pay for on weekdays.
Although the third brother’s mother’s family is a maid and has a low status, she has always been favored by her father because of her gentle temperament. It is impossible for her third brother to be short of money.
I think the big brother often pays money to win over the third brother.
As for whether the third brother was moved by his grand brother’s actions, he didn’t know. The only thing he could be sure of was that the third brother was not as he had previously guessed, but he began to plot…
, after he left Fucheng.
No, or earlier, he had already left him alone. Or maybe, it’s even more cruel, my third brother has never had the same heart as him.
As for the art exhibition held by the third brother this time, it was mostly because his father’s birthday was approaching. The eldest brother wanted to meet some literati and painters, but he was not able to organize these art exhibitions with the image of diligence he had always presented in front of his father.
The third brother then agreed to his preferences and became the leader, and asked the eldest brother to invest money.
In this way, on the day of holding the art exhibition, you can be justified and invite your elder brother to attend the art exhibition. The elder brother can also use this to make friends with masters from the painting world in Beicheng and even from all over the country to gain a sense of wisdom.
In this way, even if the news reaches my father, my father will not think that my elder brother is not doing his job properly. At most, he thinks that my third brother is bored and forcefully invites my elder brother to attend. The elder brother will go to the art exhibition out of helplessness.
As for whether the third brother was short of money, and even asked the eldest brother for money many times, he was not sure. For example, this time, the third brother should have asked his elder brother for sponsoring the art exhibition, but the people below did not understand it. It was said that the third brother was in charge of the elder brother’s money turnover.
After all, if the third brother’s finances were really bad, it would be impossible for his father to not intervene at all.
There was no movement in my father, which only means that there should be no problems with my third brother’s finances.
It should be like this art exhibition, where the third brother and the eldest brother reached some kind of cooperation.
