Ji Linhai was around 40 years old this year, and he only had his first wife. His wife had given him five daughters. Although no one thought of him as having a son, Ji Linhai was extremely fond of him. The couple did not get into an awkward situation because they did not have a son. Ji Linhai hated the matter of his taking in a concubine the most. "Now that her five daughters were married, it was quite cold for his to have such a large General Mansion.
Ji Linhai's wife was surnamed Wang, Mrs Wang was a woman with a bold personality, becaushee was also from a martial general family, he had learnt martial arts since a young age, and before, she had even disguised himself to go with Ji Linhai, so Ji Linhai did not restrain his wife like other people. Thus, when he saw Su Xinyu today, he invited his wife out.
Mrs Wang was startled when he saw Su Xinyu, then he remembered the expression and attitude of Little Boss Su when his nephew mentioned him, and he had a rough idea. As a result, she looked at Su Xinyu with a thirty percent approval, but he also liked him seventy percent. This sort of thing was not something that could be casually said.
"Xin Yu, what does your mother usually call you?" Mrs Wang personally peeled an orange and gave it to Su Xinyu, as if she was an elder chatting with a junior.
Su Xinyu respectfully received the tangerine, and quickly replied: "Reporting to Madam, my mother calls me Xin Yu, but everyone else calls me Yu."
Mrs Wang smiled, "Then I will call you mother. Don't be so formal. You and Ol 'Five are close friends, our own family. You can call us aunts and uncles just like he does. We, we all have five daughters that were married off and are not by our side anymore. Since you are the fifth brother's close friend, you should come and walk around whenever you have the time to avoid the two of us being too lonely. "
Although Su Xinyu did not take this matter seriously, how could she dare say no when Chief Officer's wife said so? Then junior will not decline. " As she spoke to here, she stood up and respectfully bowed to the ground. "Uncle, Aunt, in regards to you, this junior pays his respects to the two of you."
After Ji Linhai heard this, he laughed loudly, "Good child! Don't be so polite. Just listen to your aunt and come visit whenever you have the time. Of course, it would be best if you brought your excellent craftsmanship with you. "When the time comes, how can we grandfathers drink two cups of wine so often?!"
Mrs Wang glared at his husband: "Look at what you're saying. It's good enough for the children to come and see us. You still have to eat and drink. "When that time comes, you won't forget those few taels of yellow soup!"
Ji Linhai was also not angry, but he still wore a smile on his face. As you know, our fifth brother has grown up to be such a friend. Such a good child. "He's young but skilled."
Mrs Wang nodded: "That's true. And he looked good. If you change into a woman's outfit, you'll definitely look better than all five of our girls. "
Hearing that, Ji Linhai looked at Su Xinyu carefully. He really didn't say it. This kid is really handsome. I've said before that Xin Yu is prettier than Ol 'Five. Now it looked better. What was the point of this kid growing up in the future? "How many girls are there going to fall for this!"
The corner of Mrs Wang's mouth twitched. As he paid attention to Su Xinyu's expression, even though he did not see any flaws, there were actually quite a few flaws as well. Xin Yu, your aunt and uncle are just joking with you, please don't mind it. "
Su Xinyu didn't mind, she was almost scared to tears. Normally, people wouldn't joke around like that, but she really suspected that this Madam Chief Officer must have seen through something. However, in the end, seeing Mrs Wang act this way, she started to suspect that she had been overthinking things. I don't mind. My mother said that since I was young, my body was weak and sickly, and she had raised me like a daughter. If it wasn't for the fact that I was afraid of pain when I was young, my grandmother would still want to prick my ears. "
Mrs Wang glanced at Su Xinyu's ears and realized that there really were no holes. But then she laughed. " What's that for? In my opinion, there's no need to put a hole in a girl's house. Look at me, I don't. "
"…" Su Xinyu suddenly felt that she had overstepped her boundaries.
However, Mrs Wang did not continue to be entangled in this matter. After the servants helped arrange the good dishes Su Xinyu brought along, Zhang Ziyi could not leave early because he had Madame Chief Officer to accompany him. As a result, only Ji Linhai, his wife and Su Xinyu were left at the table.
Ji Linhai was a rough person, but he was also a talkative person. As long as he was pleasing to the eye, anything was fine. Mrs Wang was also a straightforward person, and was even more suspicious that Su Xinyu was the same as him back then, disguised as a man. Hence, she was extremely curious about, and became even more amiable.
Of course, after they had their fill of wine and food, Su Xinyu told the Ji Linhai couple about the matter of the Leisure Manor. After the couple finished listening, the first to get angry was Mrs Wang. These people ate their fill. Bullying your young age. Don't be afraid, Aunt will make the decision for you! If your uncle were to personally watch it, I don't believe that those people would dare to play any tricks! "
Su Xinyu smiled and said, "With uncle and aunt making the decision, there is naturally nothing to be worried about. Actually, Li family's eldest sister-in-law also said that she would help me inform the Prefect. Perhaps we can let the officials handle this competition. "
Hearing that, Ji Linhai laughed: "Good boy. We've already found the way out. He's here to find us to help you. "
Su Xinyu was not vague either, "Then I'll still need Uncle and Aunt to love my nephew."
This old man was really willing to have this junior act coquettishly in front of him. Su Xinyu was so young, and was not much older than their grandson. With such a temperament, after this meal, he liked it even more. He can talk! It will be a farce in the future. "
Su Xinyu's face instantly flushed red. It was probably due to the alcohol. Although Ji Linhai did not give much to her because he was young, but a small cup of rice wine was more than enough for her to digest. only thought of Wen Ling's face and not knowing if Wen Ling was safe or not. He also did not know what he was doing. It was quite embarrassing.
Su Xinyu was finally sent back to the Su residence by Ji Linhai. Seeing that his daughter had drank a bit too much, Su Wenlan frowned. However, she still thanked the people from General Mansion and supported his daughter back to her bedroom.
Waiting until the mother and daughter pair were the only ones left in the room, she complained, "Xinyu, although you look at me as a man, but you are also a woman, so I have to avoid you. If they were to be discovered, it would be difficult. "
Su Xinyu poured a cup of Spirit Spring and drank it, the smell of alcohol quickly dissipated. Mother. I know I've worried you. I'm in the wrong today, I'll make it up to you. I definitely won't be eating outside again in the future. "
Su Wenlan sighed. "Little girl, mother isn't blaming you. She's worried."
Su Xinyu rubbed her eyes, "I know. That made mother worry, but it was still my fault. But Chief Officer Ji was different from his wife. Once again, I wanted to use her identity to help out. With Madame Chief Officer with me, I only drank a small bowl of rice wine. Moreover, Chief Officer Ji is Ling Ge's uncle, so it would not be good for me to decline. "
"Su Wenlan became even more worried after hearing it. Then you haven't been discovered, right? " If it was anyone else, they would at most say a few words if they found out. But if Wen Ling's relatives or seniors were to find out, then no matter what the future would be like, it would be even harder to explain things between his daughter and Wen Ling.
Su Xinyu shook her head. Don't worry about this mother. If Ling Ge didn't tell them, they wouldn't suspect me. I'm too sleepy. Let me sleep first. I'll tell you about it when I get up tomorrow. "
Two days later, Su Xinyu once again brought Hu Ya to the Leisure Manor's gate. And this time, she came back, "The two people welcoming him are not Boss Wu and Manager Li.
These few people were well aware that Su Xinyu had been to two places the day before yesterday. It was precisely because they knew that these people were obviously angry in their hearts, yet they had no choice but to put on looks of affection. At least they didn't have the guts to fight with the Lord Prefect, or it could be said that they didn't dare to offend Chief Officer Yamen either. Back then, they had a Su Xinyu who only had a good relationship with the Li family's Fourth Young Master. Now, they knew that this Young Master was the Prefect's foster brother.
"Young Nephew Su came just in time, we've arrived just now." Boss Zhao of the Nine Fresh Breeze House laughed and stood up first, giving his seat to Su Xinyu.
Although Su Xinyu did not know anyone other than the Boss Wu, judging from their posture, they were all on equal footing with the Boss Wu, so she must be the owner of the other families. "Thus, he bowed." This junior pays her respects to the seniors. " After that, he was moved to her seat and said, "I thought I came early enough, but I was still too lazy to do it. I was so late. Have the seniors finished discussing? Actually, given my age, I do not know many things and would not be able to help out much. I would not be able to give any advice.
These words were actually quite pleasant to hear. However, everyone knew that it was impossible to take this sentence seriously. Otherwise, this brat would not have ran away with the prefect's house and Chief Officer Yamen.
Boss Wu was the first to speak, "Little Boss Su, this is what we planned to do. It was the emperor's birthday, so we thought His Majesty was celebrating. Each family would serve two dishes to celebrate his birthday. "How about it?"
Su Xinyu did not know when the emperor's birthday would be, but this question was not difficult at all. Naturally, it was extremely good. But I wonder who the judges will choose? "
Boss Tian of Xichun Pavilion suggested, "We are proposing to have the Lord Prefect and Lord General Mansion be the judges. However, since we're not familiar with the two lords, why don't we invite Little Boss Su to invite us? "
Su Xinyu's lips curled up slightly. Please do, but I think the emperor's birthday celebration is a great celebration. Apart from a few lords and some reputable people, would you like to invite a hundred commoners at random? This could be considered to be accumulating good fortune for the Lord of Ten Thousand Years. In addition, it would be even better if he could get a few hundred year olds to be his judges. "What do you think?
