That day's lunch and banquet were served in the reception hall in the backyard.
Jingming and Chunhe helped Grandma Wang and a group of maids to go about their business.
Chen Ning and his people were guarding him. Looking at the courtyard, Jing Ming and his people were doing things in an orderly and steady manner.
He was also very satisfied when he looked at it. Although this Huniu was not as elegant as Chunhe, she was from the side of a lady from a high-ranking family in the capital.
She can also go to the hall and go to the kitchen. Well, she doesn't know how to go to the kitchen.
But she looks pretty decent, so her father should be satisfied with such a daughter-in-law, right?
While the elders were all seated, Chen Ning quietly motioned for Jing Ming to come over and talk.
"How is it, but you see my father? How is it? Not bad, right?" Chen Ning asked in a low voice behind the pillars.
Suspicion appeared on Jing Ming's baby face: "General Chen is not fierce, what's wrong?"
Chen Ning smiled and said, "In order to avoid spilling the beans, the people in the central and southern parts of the country no longer call me father and uncle Zhou as generals. You can call him uncle or Mr. Chen."
Jing Ming scratched his head: "Okay, whatever you call me is a title."
Chen Ning looked at her silly look and felt she was so cute, and whispered: "You will have to change your name to daddy in the future."
Jing Ming was stunned: "Ah, do I want your father to be my godfather? But I already have a godfather!"
Chen Ning raised her eyebrows: "Shouldn't you change your mind when you marry me? Silly girl!"
Jing Ming's delicate little eyebrows twisted: "I want to marry you, why didn't I know?"
Chen Ning's handsome face suddenly turned cold: "You just said yesterday that you were ready to meet my father!"
She is about to propose marriage when she meets her parents. What is this woman pretending to do!
"I was going to meet General Chen and General Zhou. Why do I have to marry my father when I see him? Then do I also want to marry Zhou Rugu?" Jing Ming was simply confused.
Zhou Rugu happened to be passing by with two jars of wine in his arms. He almost fell into a split and immediately hugged the wine jar in his hand in a panic: "What... no, no, no, I can't bear it!"
Chen Ning was full of anger and rolled his eyes together with Jing Ming: "What's the matter with you? Get out!"
Zhou Rugu: "..."
Hey, who did he offend?
Seeing Zhou Rugu run away quickly, Chen Ning looked at Jing Ming gloomily: "Does that mean you have no intention of marrying me at all?"
Jing Ming looked at him with a strange look on his face: "Why, I want to marry you, but you don't want to marry me?"
Chen Ning choked: "..."
Jing Ming waved his hands impatiently: "Oh, I just said casually, I have never thought about getting married, you..."
"You'd better shut up, otherwise I won't mind fighting with you here!" Chen Ning gave her a cold look, turned around and walked away angrily.
This time, Jing Ming was shocked by the cold light in his eyes. She scratched her head and said, "It's so fierce."
Strange man, I don't know why he is angry.
That night, Jing Ming did not wait for the man whom he had made an appointment to meet in the evening and went fishing together in the lotus pond.
The pond koi carps breathed a sigh of relief.
It is truly terrifying to watch your companions being dragged out and taken away every day.
…
The next morning, it was still a gloomy and drizzly day.
The Jiangnan motorcade that came to deliver goods to Ming Fei's Mansion yesterday drove out of the house early in the morning.
The merchants and escorts who came to deliver the goods seemed to be very satisfied with the generosity of Ming Fei's house, and talked about how after this trip, they would not have to come out again during the New Year.
The convoy drove the empty carriage all the way out of the city gate.
When he was at the city gate, he was suddenly stopped by the sergeant guarding the gate. He searched the convoy and asked what he had sold to Concubine Ming's house.
He even took the opportunity to blackmail the caravan for a small sum of money before letting the caravan leave.
The captain guarding the gate weighed the silver bag in his hand, put it away proudly, then went to the gate guard room and reported to the people sitting inside.
The captain held his fists and said, "My lord, the caravan just sold a lot of silk and satin, Jiangnan porcelain, jewelry and other things to Concubine Ming's house. There is nothing unusual about it."
"That caravan is also very famous in Jiangnan. It comes to the capital several times every year to deliver goods to various prefectures."
The thin man sitting indoors drinking tea, with a hideous scar on his face, is Zhou Tongchen, the eldest son of General Zhou——
Not long after Ming Lanruo was released, he and his sister Zhou Changle sent people to assassinate Ming Lanruo and others in Mingchun Lake but failed. In the end, Ming Lanruo teamed up with the Xu family and the Mo family to be dismissed and exiled.
Zhou Tongchen's three-white eyes flashed with ferocity: "Huh, an unchaste and lowly woman, relying on the glory and wealth of Prince Qin's palace, pity my sister who is going crazy in the temple, and no one takes a look."
He himself was dismissed from his post and exiled!
Although his father and his people worked hard to take care of him, he had to fight again on the battlefield in order to get rid of his crime and become an official again.
When my father's people made the agreement with the people from Northern Mongolia, it was just a show by both parties, and it was just a matter of time...
As a result, those rude Northern Mongolian idiots took so much money from them and couldn't perform well. The knife actually cut his face and ruined his appearance.
It’s all because of Ming Lanruo, that bitch who should have sunk into the pond and died for losing her virginity. Not only did she not accept death obediently, she even dared to fight back!
And those shameless civil servants from the Xu family and Mo family... how dare they join forces to deal with the Zhou family, known as the pillar of the country!
Today, the Ming Dynasty relies on the Zhou family to protect them, so that these weak civil servants and women can have a good meal!
Zhou Tongchen touched the scar on his face and felt very irritated.
After returning from the border, he had been staring at Concubine Ming's mansion for these days. Except that he could see that King Qin didn't particularly like Ming Lanruo and didn't like Concubine Ming's mansion, he found nothing!
His father told him to keep a close eye on the people who delivered things to Concubine Ming's house, but he still couldn't find anything!
He couldn't help but think——
It would be great if Ming Lanruo or the Xu family really got some contraband, or even wanted to rebel.
He could catch them all and execute them in Ling Chi to vent his hatred!
"Okay, let's go, I have to go back and report to my father!" Zhou Tongchen got up, got on his horse and left with his people.
"Congratulations to your eldest son!" The soldier guarding the door clasped his fists.
Not far away, an ordinary dry goods carriage slowly passed by Zhou Tongchen's men.
Chunhe put down the curtain and nodded to Ming Lanruo: "Miss, let's go."
"Well, let's go. Don't call General Zhou. General Chen and the others have been waiting for too long." Ming Lanruo, dressed in neat black men's clothing, looked like a handsome young man.
She gently tapped the big yellow butt on the small table with her finger.
"General Zhou is a smart man, but his son is a fool, just like you."
Even if they want to do something, they can't really do it with such a conspicuous fleet.
The fat spider was playing with a glass marble, shaking his butt impatiently, and rolled his eight red eyes at her——
How can there be any human beings in this world who can compare with the Spider King!
She's the most stupid idiot in the world, isn't she? The impolite witch!
