Chapter 242： I am not as reliable as my son

Chapter 242 I am not as reliable as my son

Jiang Ning nodded slowly, "I will reward you with one or two taels of silver, and everyone else has contributed today. You are all loyal. Later, you will all come to grandma to receive the reward. I will ask someone to prepare some weapons for you tomorrow. If If someone comes to bully you again, just take action. If anything happens, I’ll take care of it!”

King Xiaoyao had a gut feeling that these words were meant for him, and he became more and more depressed. He picked up a piece of boiled fish with his chopsticks, and his eyes lit up as soon as he put it into his mouth. His depressed mood was swept away, "This dish is for you." made?"

Yang Datou nodded honestly, feeling nervous in his heart, "My lord, is it still to your taste?"

"Not bad, not bad! The dishes in the capital are more sour and sweet, or light, and pay attention to the original taste. There are not many chefs who can make spicy dishes, and even fewer are good at it. I sent someone to find some from Guangning Mansion. I invited a few chefs to Beijing and found that the spicy dishes they cooked were different from what I thought, and they would cause constipation if they ate too much. I sent them all away later." King Xiaoyao frowned when he mentioned those things.

Looking carefully at the boiled fish dish, he discovered that there were many chili peppers and Sichuan peppercorns in it, which were spices that he had been looking for for a long time. He immediately stood up and said excitedly, "Where did you get these things?"

Yang Datou looked at Jiang Ning for some reason and replied respectfully: "My mother-in-law grew it herself. The farmland at home is limited, so what she grows is only enough for her own business and has never been sold to outsiders."

“That’s it!” King Xiaoyao sat down again and glanced at Jiang Ning, “Hey! Can you share some of this with me?”

"Why?" Jiang Ning looked like he was rejecting people thousands of miles away.

King Xiaoyao was anxious, "Just because we are from the same place, why don't you give me this little face?"

"Ha! Stop arguing, who is the same as you!" Jiang Ning moved his whole body to the other side, wishing to stay away from him.

King Xiaoyao was not annoyed and even stepped forward, "I know everything! Don't try to deceive me!"

“Your Majesty, please respect yourself!” Jiang Ning glared and pointed at him with chopsticks.

Xiaoyao Wang sat back down in low spirits and ate the boiled fish as if to vent his anger.

Yang Datou and the others were confused when they heard it, and looked confused. However, Jiang Ning had no intention of explaining, and King Xiaoyao looked like a frustrated little daughter-in-law.

What is going on?

The couple felt like cats scratching their heads and were extremely anxious.

At this moment, Butler Song hurriedly came in and reported: "Your Majesty, the Crown Prince is here to pick you up."

As soon as he finished speaking, a young man in brocade robes, about ten years old, walked into the hall. He was tall and straight, serious in speech, and politely greeted Jiang Ning. Then he looked at King Xiaoyao, "Father, it's getting late, you should go home." ”

King Xiaoyao looked outside the door, frowned, and was very unhappy, "Why does it get dark so soon! Really, I haven't eaten enough yet!"

Everyone: “.”

Although the prince Xiao Chongyun is young and mature, he is still a child after all. Seeing his father say such rude words in a guest's house, his handsome little face almost burned, "Father! Uncle Guang En, I made you laugh."

Jiang Ning has always been tolerant towards children, and Xiao Chongyun was polite in his advances and retreats, which gave her a very good impression. She immediately shook her head with a smile on her face and said, "No problem."

Xiao Chongyun was even more embarrassed and kept winking at King Xiaoyao.

King Xiaoyao looked at Yang Datou and muttered: "I will eat this dish tomorrow, so remember to prepare it well."

"Father!" Xiao Chongyun felt so embarrassed and humiliated that he wanted to dig a crack in the ground and crawl in.

 King Xiaoyao completely ignored his son's anxiety, stood up unhurriedly, and asked Jiang Ning, "How many children do you have?"

"Why are you asking this?" Jiang Ning's eyes instantly became impatient when she looked at him.

King Xiaoyao was speechless, "Hey! You are so stingy! Didn't I just say a few words for Xue Shao? As for keeping scorning me? You are so petty! If you don't say it, I will knock you down! Just say it!"    King Xiaoyao looked at Yang Big head.

Yang Datou did not dare to offend this living ancestor, so he immediately explained everything about his boss.

King Xiaoyao touched his chin thoughtfully, "I understand! See you tomorrow!"

He had just taken two steps when he immediately turned back and told his son: "Uncle Guang En is my father's best friend. In the future, my father will come to Uncle Guang En's house often, and you don't need to be such a heretic."

Jiang Ning laughed angrily.

Yang Datou and Liu Ye were even more confused.

Xiao Chongyun felt like he was about to faint, "Father! Please leave quickly!"

Everyone can see that Uncle Guang En does not welcome his father, nor does he know why his father is so thick-skinned.

After King Xiaoyao went out, Xiao Chongyun apologized to Jiang Ning with a guilty look on his face, "Uncle Guang En, don't think like my father. My father was not like this before. He has changed since the death of my mother and concubine, and sometimes he acts crazy." His words are shocking and his actions are strange. Please bear with me."

Jiang Ning thought that this person must have come through that time. The child in front of her lost her mother and father at a young age. It was really pitiful. She sighed in her heart, and there was a bit of pity on her face, "It doesn't matter, I don't have to worry about it. I didn’t take it seriously.”

Seeing Jiang Ning's profound understanding of justice, Xiao Chongyun felt relieved and his expression softened a lot, "Then I'll take my leave first."

As soon as King Xiaoyao and his son left, Yang Datou and Liu Ye immediately asked, "Auntie, when did you become friends with King Xiaoyao Chengzhi? Why didn't we know?"

Yu Mammy has the same confusion.

Jiang Ning glanced at them and smiled, "You believe what a madman says!"

After saying that, she got up and went back to the room, leaving Yang Datou and his wife looking at each other.

After the couple returned to the house, Liu Ye held the child and coaxed her for a while. After the child fell asleep, she lowered her voice and asked, "Do you think King Xiaoyao has fallen in love with A Niang?"

“Cough cough cough” Yang Datou was frightened by these words and lost his breath.

After he recovered, he immediately covered Liu Ye's mouth nervously, "Don't talk nonsense! I heard that King Xiaoyao has two major hobbies in his life, beauties and delicious food. How could such a romantic person fall in love with my mother-in-law!"

Liu Ye pulled Yang Datou's hand down unconvinced, "What's wrong with my mother? I'd like to tell you that she's very pretty! She has thin skin and tender flesh, and she doesn't look like a grandmother at all!"

Yang Datou was immediately frightened and giggled twice, "I didn't say that my mother-in-law was not good-looking. If my mother-in-law was not good-looking, my father would not marry her, so she must be good-looking!"

What I mean is that with the status of King Xiaoyao, there is no shortage of women around him. There are so many noble ladies from aristocratic families who want to marry him. They can’t afford to find someone like A Niang who has many children and grandchildren, right? "

Liu Ye's face finally looked better. Thinking of being bullied today, she felt very uncomfortable, "Big Head, what do you think we should do to avoid being looked down upon?

If it weren't for the identity of A Niang here today, I'm afraid I would have fallen into a den of thieves, let alone you!

But we can’t always rely on grandma to protect us, grandma will always get old, and we have to stand up on our own! "

When I was in Ping'an County, everyone would respect them a bit when they knew they were the sons and daughters-in-law of Uncle Guang En. She was very satisfied and grateful for her life and never felt anything was wrong with her.

But today, just one day in the capital, refreshed her knowledge. It turns out that having a title without ability is useless, and she will still be bullied.
