Chapter 258： Daughters of the Huang family

Chapter 258 The Huang Family’s Daughters

Jiang Ning suddenly felt a little lucky that she had unintentionally cleared an obstacle for herself.

He frowned unconsciously when he mentioned Aunt Chun. Even though she hid it well, Jiang Ning could see her disdain for Aunt Chun from her expression.

Jiang Ning was truly grateful to Mrs. He and asked the housekeeper to give her two jars of wine. "Since the Prime Minister likes it, Madam will bring some more back. As for what you said, I have my own concerns, not to mention that I have nothing to do with the Dong family. Even if there is something real, I won’t be afraid.

It really made me anxious. At worst, I can go into the palace again and ask the emperor to make the decision. "

When He saw that Jiang Ning really didn't care, he knew that he had a plan. He breathed a sigh of relief and had a relieved smile on his face, "That makes me feel relieved. I'll lick my face with this wine." Accept it! When uncle’s restaurant opens, our family will definitely go there to support it! Oh, by the way! My uncle loves the paper he gave me. Can I ask him where it came from?”

Jiang Ning didn’t hide anything, and told him about his own paper mill.

He was so shocked that he covered his mouth and got to know the Yang family again.

After returning home, Mrs. He had no choice but to complain to Prime Minister Sun, "You also said that Guang'enbo Mansion has no foundation. What's the result? They open restaurants, make wine, and paper mills! None of these things make money. ?

Just wait and see! If the Dong family really confronts Guang Enbo, they will definitely become the second Xue family! But the Dong family is not a meritorious family, and the emperor will not be lenient! "

Prime Minister Sun was very shocked. His wife had the same idea as him before going out, but how long did it take for her to switch sides?

Prime Minister Sun was dissatisfied and said, "How about we make a bet?"

"Dad, what do you want to bet on?" Sun Yue'er came in from outside, gave Prime Minister Sun a blessing gift in a polite manner, and said: "Sister's daughter has already persuaded her. Now she no longer blindly takes advantage of others. If dad and mom want to give him a gift, Sister, just look at each other."

The smile on Prime Minister Sun's face deepened, and he said to Mrs. He: "It seems that it is not without benefits for you to take them to Guang Enbo's Mansion. It is embarrassing, but the result is good."

He also agreed with what Prime Minister Sun said, but she couldn't bear to admit it, so she immediately changed the subject, "You just said betting, what bet?"

“Let’s bet on what will happen to the Dong family!” Prime Minister Sun was mysterious.

Sun Yue'er also became interested, "I want to play too!"

The couple looked at the troubled second daughter at the same time and shook their heads repeatedly.

In a blink of an eye, the day of the cooking competition arrived.

The capital, which had been snowing heavily for several days, finally cleared up. In the martial arts arena of Duke Dingguo's mansion, the servants knocked off the snow-covered dead branches early, and all the ice on the ground that could be shoveled was cleared away.

Several rows of pots and stoves were set up in the center of the martial arts arena. It was estimated that there were a hundred pots. Even the firewood was prepared early. Two rows of flower stands were used to create partitions around the area.

Mrs. Zheng, the Duke of Dingguo, had people move many precious blooming flowers from the greenhouse and decorated the martial arts arena with flowers, as if it were spring.

Those who don’t know may think that today the Dingguo Palace is hosting a flower viewing banquet rather than a cooking competition.

Zheng supported the old lady and led a group of people through the martial arts arena and into the waterside pavilion. "Mother, do you think this arrangement is appropriate?"

In order to entertain the emperor's concubines, the old lady took out all the money she had at the bottom of the box and temporarily built a row of resting and dining pavilions in the east, west, north, and south directions of the martial arts arena. It can be said that she put a lot of thought into it.

The old lady nodded with satisfaction, looking at Mrs. Zheng with a smile in her eyes, "Not bad! Cough cough cough. Very good! My body is useless. I must entertain the nobles in the palace today. Thank you for your hard work. !”

Zheng became more and more submissive, "Don't worry, mother, my daughter-in-law will not disgrace the Duke of Ding."

The emperor arranged such an important game in Dingguo Palace to give his family grace. If things go wrong, the emperor will be disgraced, which must not happen.

Furthermore, her second son has also reached the age of proposing marriage. Taking this opportunity is just a good opportunity to see each other without making people suspicious. It is simply killing two birds with one stone.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Zheng couldn't help but touched Bu Yao on her head, her expression a little more excited and expectant. Not long after, the housekeeper led a group of ladies and ladies into the martial arts arena.

Zheng quickly asked the capable nuns around her to go and entertain them.

In just two quarters of an hour, the waterside pavilion was already filled with guests who came to join in the fun.

Zheng hurriedly asked her servants to invite the guests to the Langxuan. The East Langxuan entertained male guests, and the West Langxuan entertained female guests. This waterside pavilion was to be freed up for the nobles in the palace.

Jiang Ning hugged Yang Lexu and got out of the carriage. After calming down, he stepped up the steps of Duke Dingguo's mansion. He was stopped after taking two steps, "Uncle Guang En!"

Jiang Ning turned around and saw Huang Zhengyang bringing a group of people over. He quickly nodded to them, "Master Huang, you are well."

Huang Zhengyang's face became a little more joyful, and he introduced to his wife Zhao, "This is Uncle Guang En, the benefactor of Afeng's mother and son."

“I’ve seen Uncle Guang En, I’ve been talking about it every day, and today I can actually see him in person!” Zhao was particularly excited. She passed Huang Zhengyang and walked directly to Jiang Ning, “Is this your uncle’s grandson?”

Jiang Ning didn’t know why and nodded, “Exactly.”

"She's so beautiful! This is a gift from my mother-in-law!" Ms. Zhao came prepared and put a gold bracelet on Yang Lexu's hand.

Jiang Ning was shocked, "I can't do it! Madam, this gift is too precious!"

Zhao Shi feigned anger, "Our darling didn't even say no, but as a grandmother, you can't make your own decisions, right? My dear! Do you like it?"

“I like it!” Yang Lexu grabbed the gold bracelet and refused to let go.

Jiang Ning smiled helplessly and nodded the child's little head.

Yang Lexu shouted again, "I like it! I like it!"

Everyone in the Huang family was laughing so much that Jiang Ning could only put the things away.

 Huang Zhengyang left with his colleagues, and Jiang Ning left with the Huang family's female family members.

 They met many ladies and ladies along the way. Zhao's status was not low, and everyone would not let her down. Jiang Ning walked with her, and soon she became familiar among the ladies in the capital.

The group entered the West Corridor Pavilion, and a dedicated servant led them to sit down.

Madam Zhao knew that this was Jiang Ning's first time participating in such an event, so she whispered in her ear: "The old lady from Duke Dingguo's mansion should be in the waterside pavilion. I don't know if anyone from the palace has arrived. If possible, it's best to go there." Greetings."

As soon as she finished speaking, a maid came over and saluted them, "My servants are paying homage to Uncle Guang En. The old lady heard that the uncle was coming and wanted to meet him. However, the old lady is not in good health and cannot move around. Can you please invite the uncle to come over?" A narration?”

Since the maid is so polite, Jiang Ning will naturally not refuse.

Ms. Zhao thought for a while, then said with her two nieces behind her: "Let's go! Let's go to see the old lady together."
