Chapter 48
"Let's go for a walk, anyway, there's nothing to do here." Shiliu pouted.

What I dislike the most is Haitang's face as a maid in charge. She is also a wild girl who came back from Zhuangzi.

Jin Ning ordered: "You go and order someone to prepare dinner. I will treat General Chen to dinner, and the meal will be eaten in the gazebo with a bonfire."

Pomegranate heard that he had to be busy with so many things, so he was a little reluctant, "There are many mosquitoes in the gazebo, why don't miss eat in the room?"

Jin Ning looked at her, "Why don't I serve you this meal?"

Shi Liu was stunned, and then said: "Don't dare, servant girl will go now."

After finishing speaking, he turned around dejectedly and left.

Dinner is rich.

Tea duck soup, cold bracken, fried beans with pork neck, ginger chicken slices, grass carp in vinegar, small crabs boiled in wine, most of the small crabs are not edible, but the boiled wine is very delicious.

The bonfire is bright, illuminating the mountains like daylight.

Because there were so many mosquitoes, Jin Ning asked someone to smoke wormwood. The smell of wormwood was more overbearing, but it couldn't cover up the smell of the food. On the contrary, it added a different style.

The wind was very strong, and Jin Ning's bun was not tight and permed, but when it was blown by the strong wind, it became a little messy.

Chen Jingting changed into a farmer's clothes, his hair was tied loosely behind his head instead of a crown, and his demeanor was relaxed, showing a bit of chivalrous demeanor.

"It's commonplace, General, please don't be polite." Jin Ning said with a smile.

She was wearing a double-breasted long skirt with a string of dazzling red coral necklaces hanging from the neckline.

Chen Jingting had seen this necklace before, and it was brought back by Mr. Su. Before coming to Zaozhuang, he specially brought it with him.

"The food is very good, and your necklace is also very good." Chen Jingting smiled indifferently, his beautiful eyes had curved curves, and the cold edge of the past was completely restrained, but now he is like a harmless and gentle big brother next door.

Jin Ning reached out and stroked the cold coral beads, smiling sweetly, "Yes, it's very beautiful, I like it very much."

"Master Su is really kind to you." Chen Jingting said.

Jin Ning smiled and filled a spoon with wine for him, "Try these crab wine."

"Not strong enough!"

"It's better to have strong or strong, and to have sweet or sweet."

Chen Jingting took a sip, only to feel that the taste of the wine was almost gone, leaving only a hint of mellow aroma, combined with the freshness of the crab, it was unexpectedly special.

"That's right." Chen Jingting actually fell in love with it a little bit, "Do you often drink like this?"

"When I was in Yaoting Zhuangzi, my aunt said that girls can't drink strong wine, but boiled wine to warm up the body, you can drink it, so I drink it almost every meal." Jin Ning looked a little lonely.

"aunt?"

"She's my nurse."

"In Qingzhou now?" Chen Jingting asked.

Jinning took a sip of the crab wine, her face flushed, "She's dead."

"Not long after I came back to the capital, she died. She has been sick all the time, so when I was in Qingzhou, I always hoped that someone would come to pick me up. I was afraid that she would die and no one would take care of me. She felt that I When you get home, you can live a good life."

Jin Ning turned the cup and smiled coldly.

Chen Jingting stared at her, the light in her eyes was uncertain, the eyes under the long eyelashes seemed to be watery, but when she looked closely, she could not find a trace of tears.

"You still have a master." Chen Jingting said softly, "Just like, I still have a foster father."

"Don't get me wrong," Jin Ning put down the cup, and changed into a resolute look, "I'm not sad at all. In my life, I have more than others."

Chen Jingting was a little surprised. She thought she would feel sorry for herself, especially after being framed repeatedly.

"Have you thought about what to do in the future? Your concubine and eldest sister probably won't let you go easily." Chen Jingting asked.

"They are not good enough. The Marquis of Wu'an can't accommodate Chen Jinrui anymore. After she was divorced, she was just an abandoned wife. The Changsun family has also lost the trust of the Duke, so they are not a problem." Jin Ning analyzed objectively.

Chen Jingting looked at her, "It's just that you seem to be preoccupied. Could it be that there are more troublesome things?"

Jin Ning thought for a while, then shook his head, "It's tricky, but it's not impossible."

"I remember I asked you if you still want to marry Li Liangsheng."

"Well, I asked." Jin Ning served him vegetables with a calm expression.

"Is it because of the eldest grandson Yan'er that you don't want to?" Chen Jingting picked up the chopsticks and asked.

Jinning raised his head to look at her, his eyes seemed to reflect the light of the bonfire, "What do you think of Li Liangsheng's character? Is he a good man?"

Chen Jingting took a sip of the crab wine, and quietly looked at the dishes Jin Ning served for him, "Judging from the appearance, family background, and background, it is indeed a good marriage."

"Yeah!" Jin Ning smiled, "You are his brother-in-law, so naturally it's not easy to speak ill of him."

"He was protected too much by his adoptive mother. If he had been put on the battlefield to practice earlier, he would not be like this now." Chen Jingting said.

"He will go to the battlefield." Jin Ning said firmly.

In fact, Li Liangsheng has always wanted to go to the battlefield.

After marrying Li Liangsheng in his previous life, he repeatedly said that he would go to the battlefield.

But it turned out that he never knew how dangerous it was to go to the battlefield.

The first time she went out, she was not at ease to follow.

He was completely bewildered and backed away in fright.

However, with her assistance, she killed a few enemy soldiers, made a small contribution and was commended after returning to Beijing, so she was complacent.

Chen Jingting ate the food and asked, "How do you know he will go to the battlefield?"

"Guess." Jin Ning said with a smile, "Okay, let's not talk about it, the food is cold, eat quickly."

As they ate, they realized that they had one thing in common.

They ate very quickly, as if they were in a rush to do something, the meal was overwhelming, and there was not enough time for a cup of tea, so the two of them put down their chopsticks at the same time.

Eating fast is a habit on the battlefield.

The two looked at each other and smiled, Chen Jingting said, "You eat so fast?"

"Get used to it!" Jin Ning raised his hand to let Haitang come over to remove the empty plates and serve tea.

While drinking tea, the two of them didn't speak for a long time, they just watched the distant mountains quietly.

On the edge of the undulating mountain lying quietly like giant monsters, the moon has climbed up, the moonlight is not bright, but the stars are very bright, Jin Ning can't remember how long he hasn't calmed down to look at the starry sky.

The air in the mountains is sweet, and when you breathe to the end, you will feel refreshing.

The chirping of insects and the croaking of frogs make people feel even more silent.

"Your feet, are you okay?" Chen Jingting suddenly turned his head to look at her, the bonfire faded, and his face had a hazy soft light.

When I saw her walking just now, she seemed to be a little limp.

Jinning lowered her eyes, "It's okay."

"Who was hurt?"

Jin Ning didn't make a sound, just waved the whip once and for all to repel the mosquitoes.

But Haitang said softly from the side: "It was the Duke who kicked it."

An unknown fire rose in Chen Jingting's heart.

He knew how difficult it is for a child without a mother to struggle to survive in the inner house, but Chen Guogong didn't take care of this daughter at all, instead he questioned and made things difficult everywhere.

Thinking of how hard it was for her to walk this way, she was still divorced by the Li family, and she was still as strong as the tough grass in the mountains when she was framed and poisoned again today.

He felt a little pain in his heart, and blurted out, "You don't want to marry into the Li family, so are you willing to marry into the Chen family?"
