In the rebirth, the abandoned wife of a noble family turned black

Chapter 157 156 is not a slap in the face of our Zhong family

"She gave me leftovers, and my father actually thought it was a good intention. I think my father has been biased since my sister came back."

Zhong Xintong thought about the last time Zhong Ding yelled at her because of Jiang Ruan Xi. The more she felt like this, the more angry she became. Finally, she threw away her chopsticks and said, "I can't eat this meal anymore. You can eat it yourself if you like."

"This child has been spoiled by me to the point of being lawless." Zhong Ding did not catch up with him, and there was even a slight apology on his face.

Jiang Ruanxi smiled and said, "Master Zhong, if you continue like this, Miss Zhong will misunderstand me. Why don't you explain it?"

"Don't worry, little lady, everything will be revealed after you get married. If you tell her now, I'm afraid she may not feel comfortable in her heart, and maybe more things will happen."

Jiang Ruanxi thought about Zhong Xintong's character and realized that she was indeed someone who would do such a thing, so she stopped saying anything.

"By the way, Mr. Zhong, is the current disaster serious?"

Jiang Ruanxi was in Kyoto when he experienced the disaster in his previous life, so he didn't feel much about it.

I just vaguely heard Lin Ningkun mention it. The Jiang family made great contributions during this disaster, stabilized their position in the court, and made a lot of money.

Now that Jiang Linlei has been arrested, there is no one left in the Jiang family in Lingnan, and there is no hope of getting any benefits from the drought this time.

"It is indeed quite serious. The granary was burned down, and most of the grain stored in Lingnan is gone. Now the city has begun to suffer from food shortage." Zhong Ding's face was not very good.

He is an official in Lingnan. If the price of food exceeds the normal level, if it is allowed to develop like this, chaos will occur in Lingnan. If it is not handled well, not to mention the black hat on his head, but more importantly, the lives of their family will be at risk. May be lost.

Jiang Ruanxi's eyes turned dark.

She remembered that He Kui told her before that Jiang Linlei had hoarded a lot of food, but he had all taken away.

Now if the prince brings food from afar, it will definitely be delayed for a while. If he can catch up, that's fine. If he can't, the consequences will be disastrous.

"Fortunately, His Royal Highness is in Lingnan. I believe this matter will be settled soon." Zhong Ding didn't know whether he was comforting himself or someone else by saying this.

Zhong Ding remembered the purpose of asking her to come to eat with them today, and took out an envelope from his arms, "This is a post from the Yu family. If you are free tomorrow, you can go out and look around."

Jiang Ruanxi took the post and found that it was posted to her by the Yu family.

If she wanted to help her with Jiang Linlei's matter this time, it was Master Yu who helped her. She should go and thank him, so she took advantage of this opportunity.

"Father, I want to go too."

Suddenly, Zhong Xintong and Mrs. Zhong, who had left and returned, came back again.

"What are you talking about? Where are you going and what are you doing?"

"Father, this should be Mrs. Lin's invitation. Doesn't that mean that the people going to Yu's house tomorrow are not only Zhong Ling, but also famous women from Lingnan."

Zhong Ding didn't know what she wanted to say, but he nodded anyway.

"On such occasions, the elders in the family usually take the younger ones with them, so not only will I go tomorrow, but my grandmother will also go."

Mrs. Zhong also said, "Sir, Xintong is right. There is no reason for a junior to go on this occasion without the elders going. If this is the case, it will not be a slap in the face of our Zhong family."

The invitation did not say that they should go, but the Yu family asked him to give it to Jiang Ruan Xi. Zhong Ding was in a bit of a dilemma.

"They are still young and don't understand the rules of wealthy families. I will follow them. If they do anything against the rules, I can be there to give them some advice. Zhong Ling is getting married soon, so don't make a fuss at this time. What a joke, when the time comes to marry into the Yu family, someone will take advantage of her." If it were another woman, Mrs. Zhong's emotional and rational words would be reasonable.

But Jiang Ruan Xi was not someone else. Although he didn't know her background, Master Yu personally asked him to take care of her. Looking at her demeanor, she didn't look like a small family.

She knows more than Madam Zhong.

"Sir, the old lady is right. Although I have made an engagement with the Yu family, we haven't gotten married yet. It's really not appropriate to go directly like this. I'd better let the old lady take me there."

Before he could speak, Jiang Ruanxi spoke first.

Jiang Ruan Xi said so, and Zhong Ding no longer insisted and nodded to them.

Mrs. Zhong and Zhong Xintong immediately laughed.

Especially Chung Xintong.

Originally she thought she could climb the big tree of the Jiang family, but she didn't expect that Jiang Linlei was thrown into the dungeon before she took action.

And I heard that the prince has come to Lingnan now, and the Yu family is the prince's uncle's house. He should show up tomorrow. If he shows up, he will have a chance.

She heard that the prince was as handsome as the moon, and her little heart was beating fast just thinking about it.

Zhong Ding was still a little worried about his beloved daughter, Mo Ruofu, and warned with a serious face, "Mother, the Yu family is the queen's natal family after all. After you go there tomorrow, don't cause any ugly things to happen. Xintong, especially It's you."

"I know, father." Zhong Xintong flattened her mouth.

"Don't worry, I am sensible and will not disgrace our Zhong family." Mrs. Zhong promised.

Zhong Ding was still worried, but thinking that Jiang Ruan Xi would go too, nothing would happen.

After Zhong Ding and Jiang Ruanxi left, Zhong Xintong pulled Mrs. Zhong's sleeves and said with a bouncing smile, "Grandma, if we go to the Yu family tomorrow, can we see His Highness the Crown Prince? I must wear it tomorrow. Make it look good, and I must leave my presence in His Highness’s heart.”

Mrs. Zhong stroked Zhong Xintong's head lovingly, "My Xintong is so beautiful, His Highness will definitely be fascinated by you."

In Mrs. Zhong's heart, her granddaughter is the bright moon in the sky. She is noble and beautiful, and is a perfect match for the prince.

"I also think I'm going to take out the best ones and show them to the prince tomorrow."

He said and skipped away.

After Hongye got the information, he immediately reported to Jiang Ruanxi.

"Miss, I think they are just uneasy and kind-hearted. Do you really want to take them there tomorrow?"

"Brother, tomorrow they will be in front to attract firepower, so I can quietly go to see the second master and thank him."

Hearing this, after knowing Jiang Ruan Xi's plan, he felt relieved and said with a smile, "Miss, you are so smart."

"Maybe the prince will be there tomorrow. Hong Ye, you won't go tomorrow. Yu Yu will follow me to Yu's house."

Hongye nodded and frowned slightly, "Miss, if you meet His Highness the Crown Prince tomorrow and he recognizes you, what will you do?"
