Chapter 6: Ripped off

After a while, the butler came out and led the two into the study.
Tang Xin looked at Tang Jingnan curiously. This was the first time she had seen a cheap father. He looked like a middle-aged man in his forties. He was very young and very majestic. He was totally unlike a father of a dozen children. She was right when she thought about it, the word "scumbag" would never be engraved on the face of a scumbag. Looks and personality are opposite, women are easy to be fooled.
"The butler said, you want to see me." Tang Jingnan looked directly into Tang Xin's eyes.
Tang Xin did not evade and looked back calmly, "Ten brother broke into my house and wanted to kill me. What does my father think about this matter? According to the Tang family rules, it should be expelled from the Tang family and canceled at the same time. He participated in the Tang Family Patriarch Competition."
Deathly silence.
The butler held his breath and pretended that he did not exist.
Tang Jingnan tapped his index finger on the desktop, "The butler mentioned to me that you robbed Laoshi's guard?"
Tang Xin shook his head, "I haven't snatched someone else's guard. I just followed the Tang family's rules and chose the guard I fancy before leaving home. If my father thinks my actions are wrong, please tell me that I violated the Tang family. Which house rule."
Tang Jingnan frowned. If the old man is emotionally arguing with him, he can play a fifty-six match against each of them to expose the matter. But Old Ba calmly asked her where she was wrong, and he really couldn't speak. After all, this kind of thing is decided by default.
Don't even look at him as the Patriarch of the Tang Family, a group of people behind are staring, waiting to grab his handle. He must be fair, even if he only looks fair on the face.
Thinking of this, he changed the question, "When the butler came into the house, he saw you stabbing Lao Shi with a dagger with his own eyes. What's your explanation?"
Tang Xin raised her head and chested out, and answered confidently, "I am a legitimate defense. In order to ensure my safety, we need to ensure that he loses the ability to attack." For example, becoming an immobile corpse.
"A lot of nonsense!" Tang Jingnan asked with a sullen face, "What evidence do you have to prove that Lao Shi took the initiative to attack you?"
Tang Xin sneered secretly. Tang Ning took the initiative to find her, is it not obvious enough? This is the difference between the mind and the unimportant. She wanted her to proactively prove that Tangning had attacked her, not that Tangning would come up with a proof to remove her suspicion. Fortunately, she had already taken precautions.
"I have a pinhole camera in my room, and I took it all. If my father wants to see it, I can go back and get it."
Tang Jingnan stagnated, looking at Tang Xin as if he was someone he didn't know. She had expected him to ask this, so she was ready?
"No need." Tang Jingnan's chest tightness. Lao Shi is his most beloved son, and he is also a rare genius in the Tang family. He has to keep Lao Shi no matter whether it is public or private.
The most hopeful person of the Tang family to inherit the position of Patriarch, who has not yet reached the age of twenty to participate in the Patriarch Competition, is about to be driven out of the Tang Family. No matter what class of the children, there has never been such a joke.
He wanted to pull the source of Lao Shi's impulsivity to Lao Ba, and failed. He wanted to wash away the old ten, but he failed. It seems that you can only play the family card.
"Lao Shi is young and energetic after all, you are a sister, don't bear it, don't you have the heart to drive him out of the house?" Tang Jingnan said earnestly.
Tang Xin remained unmoved, "If you do something wrong or violate the family rules, you must be punished. It doesn't matter who you are."
After a pause, she suggested, "Otherwise, my father is the head of the family, and for the tenth brother, the Tang family rules have been changed. In this way, the tenth brother can stay at home smoothly."
The housekeeper wiped his sweat. He felt that Miss Eight was disrespectful to him, and he complained. But look now, Miss Eight doesn't even give the Patriarch the face! Thinking about this, Miss Eight is quite polite to him.
The family rules of the Tang family were handed down by the ancestors. Did he change it when he said it?
Tang Jingnan squinted, "Everyone knows that Lao Shi is the most suitable candidate for the next Patriarch. Are you really going to go it alone?"
Tang Xin sighed, "Everything is up to my father. Even if my father decides to let my tenth younger brother take over as the head of the family, I dare not disagree. As a member of the Tang family, I can only pray silently for the Tang family." Tang Ningyi's IQ, he is the master of the family, and the future of the Tang family is worrying.
Hearing these words, Tang Jingnan's fire went up. Tang Xin looked docile, but there were thorns in her words.
Tang Ning Yi is his favorite son. Although he often said that Tang Ning was not up to date, it was not good, that was not good, but he was actually very proud of his son. Now his son is in Tang Xin's mouth, being devalued like a waste. No one can look down on his son, even if it is his daughter who belittles Tang Ning Yi!
Tang Jingnan just wanted to yell, and when his words fell back into his throat, he wanted to ask Lao Ba to withdraw the complaint.
In case things make a big mess, it is mostly people watching jokes. In addition to his children, many Tang family children participated in this competition. If Tangning, a powerful opponent, can be driven out of the game, many people will spontaneously unite and force him to make a decision.
The more he thought about it, the more irritable Tang Jingnan was. It happened that the eighth old man had done nothing, and he could not justify his son.
Old ten, that idiot, why didn't he use his brain before doing something? It's hard for him to deal with such a disaster. Do you have any common sense? Wouldn't you do something trivial?
Tang Jingnan was just angry that the old man disliked his precious son. When he turned around, he wanted to scold him.
"The old ten will lead the Tang family to a brighter future. I cannot drive him away."
Taking a deep breath, Tang Jingnan continued in a deep voice, "Do you know why the children of the Tang family want to leave home and fight for the position of the head of the family? You will grow rapidly in the struggle. Ten or twenty years later, no matter where you are, do What, this kind of struggle experience will become your precious wealth."
"Learn to cherish this experience."
Coax her less. How many people can't wake up sleeping on their fortune. Wouldn't the old man want her to treat Tang Ning Yi's attack as wealth, let her thank Tang Ning Yi?
Tang Xin expressionlessly, "I am not used to competing with the world, and I don't need such wealth."
The housekeeper almost didn't catch his breath. Knowing that the Ten Young Masters liked Yan Hao, he still insisted on choosing Yan Hao. This is called incompetence?
"Are you really disregarding your siblings?" Tang Jingnan asked.
Don't talk to her about feelings or hurt money. What is her relationship with Tangning Yi? Is it the touching siblings of stab each other?
However, Tang Xin had her own purpose. She relaxed a little, "I don't have to ask him to leave the Tang family."
Hearing these words, Tang Jingnan felt more relieved, and frowned, "Do you want Lao Shi to apologize to you? No problem."
Who knows, Tang Xin gently shook his head, "Even if I forgive him, it is hard to guarantee that he will not target me in the future. I need more capital to become stronger."
"Yes." Tang Jingnan's expression remained unchanged, "You have a resource quota of 50,000. I can make an exception and give you 80,000."
The housekeeper sighed aside, watching the business the owner did. The privileges that were supposed to be given were given away as compensation.
Tang Xin spit out two words, "Not enough."
Tang Jingnan thought for a while, "I can send you to Aquastar. Aquastar is rich in resources, has a beautiful environment, and convenient transportation. Moreover, the Tang family has a good presence in Aquastar, which is good for your future development."
"not enough."
Tang Jingnan was a little dissatisfied, "Don't go too far."
Tang Xin spread his hands, "I just hope that if I let my tenth brother go, I can survive from him. It's not that I put him a yard and fell into his hands. After all, he is a grade A gene."
Tang Jingnan's words made sense, and he thought about it for a while, "I can't help in other ways. I have a private warehouse where you can go in and pick three things. How much benefit you can get depends on your eyesight." how is it?"
Tang Xin thought about it for a while. Seeing this, it won't get any more benefits, so she nodded altogether.
Tang Jingnan walked to the bookshelf, turned the antique vase on the shelf, and immediately appeared a hidden pavilion in the study room.
Tang Jingnan walked in first, Tang Xin followed, butler and Yan Hao stayed outside.
Before entering the door, Tang Xin asked Yan Hao quietly, "What weapon are you used to?"
Yan Hao's expression moved slightly, and he whispered, "Long Sword."
Tang Xin couldn't help frowning, especially wanting to say, why do you use the same thing as Tangning? Thinking about it again, maybe Tangning deliberately learned Yan Hao.
In the hidden pavilion, weapons, jewelry, antiques, and ancient books are placed on shelves in different categories. There are many things, in all categories.
"Pick three of them." Tang Jingnan stood by the door, closing his eyes and resting.
Is it because she is afraid that there will be dissatisfaction in her eyes, what is more expensive in her eyes? Tang Xin pouted her lips, which was a mistake. She sees a lot of good things, and she can tell by herself.
"As long as I want, I can get three things? No matter what?" Tang Xin asked again.
"Yes." Tang Jingnan answered straightforwardly.
With this guarantee, Tang Xin was relieved. He glanced around in the dark pavilion, and quickly picked out a long knife, a dagger, and a simple ring.
"It's chosen."
So fast? Tang Jingnan was slightly surprised, opened his eyes, and couldn't help but twitch. Forget the dagger, sharp is sharp, but he has other stocks. But the long knife was made by a master at all costs and was specially prepared for the old ten.
As for the quaint ring, Tang Jingnan's heart was trembling, it was a space ring! He has only two in total. One for himself, and one for the old ten.
"The ring is too old, do you want to replace it with a separate one?" Tang Jingnan said dryly.
"No, I like it." Tang Xin smiled, very satisfied, and put on her index finger.
She had a space bracelet in her previous life, but it was a pity that she was gone after changing her body. I didn't expect to get a space ring so soon, so lucky.
Tang Xin happily returned to the study with three treasures. The long knife was thrown directly to Yan Hao, and the dagger was hidden in his short boots. With a big wave of his hand, he decided not to care about Tang Ningyi's unintentional mistakes, promised to destroy the video, and left happily.
Call the housekeeper before leaving and go to the warehouse together.
Only Tang Jingnan was left gnashing his teeth in place. He desperately told himself that this was an investment. The old ten needs a sharpening stone. As long as Lao Ba is there, Lao Shi will have a strong desire to make progress. Strengthen, it doesn't matter if these external objects are gone.
Unfortunately, his clenched fist revealed his true feelings.
