Chapter 5
What happened to Zhang's mother was that she had no food to eat at night.

Haitang went to the kitchen to ask, and the kitchen said that Madam ordered that no meals will be served tonight in the Lihuayuan.

In addition to Haitang and Mama Zhang, Lihuatang also had three sweeping maids, and even the three of them had no food.

They had only listened to Zhang's mother before, but now that Chen Jinning has caused them to have nothing to eat, they naturally have resentment.

Haitang worriedly said to Chen Jinning: "If you don't serve dinner tonight, if you don't serve it tomorrow, what should we do?"

"Report!" Chen Jinning dug into the cabinet, looking for something, making a lot of noise.

"Suggestion? The Duke doesn't like people to complain." Haitang said softly.

Chen Jinning finally got out of the cabinet, holding a whip in his hand, and said, "Finally found it."

Haitang looked at the whip in her hand, "Didn't you bring it back from Qingzhou? Madame said that girls are not allowed to use force at home, they will be ridiculed, so you keep it in the closet."

Chen Jinning pinned the whip to her waist, "Little Haitang, it's good for a girl not to use force at home, but if she is bullied to the point that she doesn't use force, she is stupid, and no one will feel sorry for her if she dies."

In her previous life, she was like this.

"However," Chen Jinning smiled slightly, and raised his whip, "There is no need to use force to deal with the problem of eating."

Haitang looked at her in surprise.

"Go out and find out when father will come back." Chen Jinning pinched her little cheek, "Father is back, tell me."

"Miss, what are you going to do?" Haitang asked puzzled.

"Go, where are you talking so much nonsense?" Chen Jinning sat down and slowly fiddled with the thorns on the whip. This was a whip given to her by her master, and her name was engraved on the handle of the whip.

My disciple Jinning!

In her previous life, she didn't know the identity of her master until she married into the Li family.

Li Liangsheng didn't like Master, so he didn't allow her to associate with Master, but she listened to his words foolishly and cut off contact with Master, which broke Master's heart.

I remember when Chuchu got married, the master didn't know her attitude, so he brought a lot of gifts to visit, but she hung them outside the main hall and waited for a full hour.

Later, Li Liangsheng went to tell him that the Jiangning Marquis Mansion didn't deal with people like him. She hid outside at that time and looked at Master's extremely disappointed face.

Indulging in the past, she could hardly extricate herself.

Half an hour later, Haitang came back, "Miss, the Duke is back, and he is now in Yongming Pavilion."

Chen Jinning stood up slowly, "Follow me there."

"Yes!" Although Haitang didn't know what she was going to do, she felt that Miss must have plans.

Chen Jinning knew that if her father came back late, the Changsun family would definitely reserve a supper for her.

Since the Ewha Garden is not open for dinner, she will go to Cengfan.

Chen Guogong is now serving as the deputy inspector of the Supervising Yamen. The former name of the Supervising Yamen is Eight Gates, which is dedicated to investigating and punishing corrupt officials. Chen Guogong always leaves early and returns late.

The yamen is in charge of food, but the food is not good. Supervising the yamen to lead by example, fight corruption and promote integrity, must play a leading role in food.

Changsun loved her husband dearly, so she always prepared soup and supper for him to eat when he came back. Chen Guogong was also used to coming back every day, and would go to Yongming Pavilion for supper before going to the study.

Seeing him coming back, Mrs. Changsun greeted him and waited for him to take off his outer clothes, while ordering people to bring food and soup.

"When I first came in, I heard from the third grader that Liang Sheng and Mrs. Chen Shilang had been here." Chen Guogong sat down, washed his hands with the grapefruit leaves beside him, and asked, "What's the matter?"

Mrs. Changsun hung his outer clothes on the hanger, and said with a smile: "There is nothing important, just go to the house and sit for a while."

"Yeah!" Chen Guogong didn't ask any more questions, took a sip of the tea handed over by his mother-in-law, "Jinning's marriage is now settled, and we will get married only when Lord Hou comes back. You have to hurry up on Zhu'er's side too." Do something, he is an older brother after all, and he can't be taken over by his younger sister."

Upon hearing the words, the Changsun family cautiously probed: "Have you ever inquired about the Marquis of Jingguo? The Marquis of Jingguo's daughter, Princess Rui'an, just reached the age of Ji this year. If you can talk about this marriage, it will greatly benefit Zhu'er's future. benefit."

Chen Guogong shook his head, "No, don't think about it, who is virtuous in Zhu'er? Is he worthy of Princess Rui'an? Princess Rui'an is the heart of the Empress Dowager. Can our Zhu'er get into the eyes of the Empress Dowager?"

Changsun curled her lips, "That Ruian princess is savage, and it's not so easy to talk about him. Besides, what's wrong with our Zhu'er?"

Chen Guogong turned cold, "Don't you know what is wrong with your son? I tell you not to think about it, just find someone with the right family."

The servants brought up the food, seeing that she still wanted to talk, Chen Guogong said coldly: "That's enough, don't talk anymore."

"Yes!" Changsun said helplessly.

As soon as Chen Guogong ate a piece of meat with chopsticks, he saw a figure flashing in quickly, casually blessed Fushen, called his father, and sat down.

Chen Guogong raised his head, slightly startled, Jin Ning?

"Father," Jin Ning raised his eyes, "You have three dishes and one soup here, can you share some with your daughter?"

Changsun quickly said: "Jinning, if you are hungry, mother will order someone to cook for you. These meals are for your father."

Jin Ning said indifferently: "Don't bother, my father must not be able to finish it."

Chen Guogong looked at her suspiciously, and then at Changsun's, with displeasure in his eyes, but he didn't say anything, he just waved his hand and let the old woman fetch the bowls and chopsticks.

The mother-in-law had to go to fetch the bowls and chopsticks.

For this meal, Chen Guogong didn't say anything, and Jin Ning didn't say anything. She just ate hard. She ate like crazy, but she didn't overdo it. Half of her didn't move.

After eating a few chopsticks, Chen Guogong stopped to watch her eat, and when she finished eating, he asked lightly, "I'm so hungry tonight, didn't you have dinner?"

Jin Ning wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, took a sip of tea, stood up and smiled at him, "I beat Mama Zhang, and Madam ordered me not to have dinner. I don't think there will be any in the next few days. Tomorrow night, my daughter will come again." .”

"Wait!" Chen Guogong's eyes darkened, looking at this daughter who was afraid to talk to him on weekdays, "Why did you hit Mama Zhang?"

Jin Ning smiled coolly, "Because I don't agree to be Li Liangsheng's equal wife."

"Why do you want to be Li Liangsheng's flat wife?" Chen Guogong raised his voice with a hint of sullenness.

Changsun's face turned pale with fright, and quickly said: "Jinning, don't talk nonsense, who asked you to be Liang Sheng's flat wife? Yan'er is the flat wife, and you are the main wife."

Jin Ning looked at her, "Really? But that's not what you told me today. You said that Yan'er had Li Liangsheng's child and asked me to give way to her. I disagree. You accused me of being mean and ruthless. I don't know why. Thinking about his father's situation, he said that now General Changsun is deeply favored by the emperor, and his father urgently needs to win him over. When he returned to Lihuayuan, even Zhang's mother said that I don't know what is good and bad, and I dare not fight with you, so I can't beat a woman? But , obviously it’s impossible, at least if you beat this woman, I, a lady from the Duke’s Mansion, won’t even be able to eat.”

Chen Guogong looked at her quietly, and said: "Whoever bullies you in the future, you can tell your father."

Jin Ning smiled, "No need, whoever bullies me, I'll just bully him back."

After finishing speaking, Fushen left without any chance to argue with Changsun.
