MTL - Drunk House-Chapter 29 anger (plus more)
Chapter 29 Anger (plus more)
The big kitchen was full of work, and the cook took out all her skills and made a big table full of fish feast.
During the banquet, Zhou Gu was still next to Su Rong. Su Rong often ate fish, and she was very good at catching, killing and eating fish. She picked out the fishbone neatly with clean chopsticks, put it on a clean plate, and placed it in front of Zhou Gu.
Zhou Gu turned his head to look at her, no one had ever picked a fishbone for him.
Su Rong blinked at him, "I see that you are eating slowly, so I can help you."
Zhou Gu looked a little unnatural, "Thank you."
Su Rong smiled, "You're welcome."
The two spoke very quietly, but they were still very noticeable.
The eldest lady was very satisfied, thinking that Xiaoqi, this girl, was finally not in vain for her to take the trouble to teach and know how to coax people. The rest of the aunts and ladies were shocked, thinking that there is no such thing as a constant cold-heartedness. If someone is really cold-hearted, it is because they have not met a man who makes her not cold-hearted. For example, Su Rong in the past, and Su Rong today.
Prefect Su was very happy, and took Zhou Gu to drink, "Nephew Zhou Xian, we didn't have a good time drinking at noon, can we have a good drink tonight?"
Zhou Gu nodded, "Do my best to accompany you, Uncle."
Prefect Su laughed loudly, "Come, come, drink."
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Taishou Su patted Zhou Gu on the shoulder, and said with his tongue out, "Nephew, my little Qi is very nice. You just know her now, and you don't know her well. After a long time, you will know."
Zhou Gu thought to himself, it doesn't take long, he has already learned a lot about her ability.
"My Xiao Qi has been different from other daughters since she was a child. She...cough cough...madam, why are you **** me?" Prefect Su wanted to talk to Zhou Gu, but his back hurt and he turned to look at the eldest lady.
The eldest lady immediately said: "You drank too much."
Prefect Su raised his forehead, "Did I drink too much?"
"Yes, you drank too much, my nephew is tired all day, stop pulling him nonsense, go back to rest." Naturally, it is impossible for the eldest lady to let the prefect Su get drunk and expose Su Rong's shortcomings. Su Rong's reputation can be ruined by others, but not by her own father. If someone speaks ill of Su Rong, she can justifiably scold a rumor, but if her own father speaks nonsense, she will really die, and she can't kill her husband.
"Oh, my nephew is tired, let's not talk about it, let's drink it another day." Su Taishou has an advantage, he listens to people's persuasion, and it is reflected at this time.
Zhou Gu felt regretful, he wanted to hear more about how Su Rong was different from other daughters, but unfortunately, he had to give up.
Su Taishou Mansion is lively and lively, and the atmosphere is very good. On the contrary, the atmosphere in Jiangzhou Governor's Mansion is not so good.
Jiangzhou Inspector Jiang Sheng heard about what his daughter had done today, he was furious, and scolded Jiang Yunying, "You didn't even know the identity of the people around that concubine Su Rong, how could you swear such ugly words? Has your brain been eaten by a dog?"
Jiang Yunying kept crying, the wound on her neck was bleeding because she cried too hard.
Ning Chi cupped his hands, "Uncle Jiang's house, sister Jiang already knew she was wrong, so don't scold her, even I didn't expect that person to be Zhou Gu, if I knew it earlier, I should have stopped it earlier."
"She provoked people to draw their swords with a single word, how can I blame you for not stopping it earlier?" Jiang Sheng said angrily, "Nephew Ning Xian, you don't have to speak nice words to her, she is really used to her."
Jiang Sheng ordered angrily, "Come on, from today onwards, punish Missy..."
"Uncle Jiang, Sister Jiang is already injured, so this punishment is unnecessary, right? Don't let it be an example! If you punish Sister Jiang, I will also be punished. After all, she accompanied me to Jiangning County, which caused this incident." Ning Chi pleaded again.
Jiang Sheng sighed, "Hey, Nephew Ning Xian, you are really..."
He was annoyed, "If it wasn't because of her involvement, how could you reveal your identity? Zhou Gu has been a student in the Eastern Palace for several years. Although the Duke Huguo's mansion did not join the Eastern Palace, it is well known that Zhou Gu and the Eastern Palace are close to each other. He is considered to be half of the Eastern Palace. Now that you meet him, you blew your identity. I am afraid that you will not be able to hide the news of your coming to Jiangzhou."
"If you can't hide it, you can't hide it." Ning Chi smiled, "Anyway, it will be known sooner or later."
"That's too late." Jiang Sheng was annoyed, and then glared at Jiang Yunying, "It's all because of you!"
Jiang Yunying just cried, unable to speak a word.
"Uncle, no one expected this to happen. Don't blame Sister Jiang. She has been frightened enough today, and she will have nightmares at night. Let someone make her a bowl of soothing soup."
Although Jiang Sheng was furious, the only prostitute still counted on her to get married, so naturally he couldn't be frightened, so he took the opportunity to step down the steps, "That's all. Since you pleaded for her, today I will spare her punishment."
He scowled at Jiang Yunying, "For Ning Shizi's sake, I won't punish you today, keep your eyes open in the future, don't blame the offender and cause trouble for the family without knowing the identity of the person."
Jiang Yunying nodded with tears in her eyes.
"Go down!" Jiang Sheng waved his hand.
Jiang Yunying was helped down by the maid.
The governor's wife kept silent, mainly because she was too startled, and she still hasn't recovered from it. She confirmed repeatedly, "The little concubine's fiancé is really Zhou Gu of the Lord Protector?"
"Auntie, I can testify that Zhou Gu is right." Ning Chi affirmed.
"He, how could he have a marriage contract with a little concubine?" The governor's wife was very puzzled. Anyone who said this would be a fantasy, right? It's just unbelievable.
Ning Chi was also shocked and surprised. He hadn't figured it out on the way back, "I don't know the inside story, but what it means is that I had a marriage contract since I was a child."
"So, what Mrs. Su said three years ago is true." Mrs. Governor's face was very ugly. She was confused at first, and thought it was the Su family who tricked her to shirk her responsibility, but she did not expect it to be true.
She looked at Governor Jiang, "Master, look at this..."
"It's all you! At the beginning, you insisted on grabbing people, but now, where will I put my old face? Where will you put your face? You have raised a good daughter!" Governor Jiang was annoyed.
Apologizing to Zhou Gu, of course, has to be sincere, and it is necessary to say good things to Su Taishou and his wife.
The governor's wife was a little unwilling, she was trying to save face, she asked tentatively: "Master and I must go to make amends in person? Young Master Zhou, although he came from a good family background, but he didn't have any official positions..."
Jiang Jiang said angrily: "What did your good daughter scold? You think that if you don't go to make an apology yourself, he will forgive you lightly? Are you really waiting for the old protector to come out to protect the calf? And then you won't cry when you see the coffin? Confused!"
Madam Governor trembled, "I'll go right away!"
Jiang Governor turned his head and sighed at Ning Chi, "Nephew, I made you laugh! It's the old man who doesn't manage his family strictly."
Ning Chi shook his head, "I don't blame Uncle, who would have thought that the youngest son of the Duke Huguo's Mansion would have a marriage contract with a concubine in the Jiangning Prefect's Mansion since childhood? Especially Zhou Gu still lives in the Prefect's Mansion. It is said that he came here for her rites, so it can be seen that he attaches great importance to it."
He was puzzled, "A few days ago, I heard that Zhou Gu and Xie Lin were fighting to **** Qin Luan, the daughter of former Yushi Zhongcheng Qin Yuan. Now, in a short period of time, they actually appeared in Jiangning County to accompany his fiancée. This is really confusing."
Prefect Jiang couldn't figure it out either, "Indeed, hey, let's talk about it after seeing Zhou Gu tomorrow! This matter shouldn't be a big deal, or it's not good for the old man." He patted Ning Chi on the shoulder again, "Nephew, we shouldn't make mistakes in the marriage of our two families, otherwise it's not good for His Royal Highness."
"Uncle is right, I will go to the prefect's mansion with you and aunt tomorrow." Ning Chi stated.
Governor Jiang was satisfied, "Good!"
This is Gagen, see you tomorrow~
