good meal

Chapter 99
Within half a day, the whole capital knew about this scandal, and some even drove to the gate of Zhangfu to watch the excitement.The Zhang family lost all face because of this, Mrs. Zhang saw that it was not good, so she asked the servants to open the back door and carry him in.

The turmoil outside quickly spread to Chu Liangrao, she moved the chess pieces calmly, played a game of checkers without being affected, and then got up to let a young lady who was already eager to try.And Mrs. Wu also tactfully gave up her seat and sat aside to answer.Knowing that the Yun family had something for sale, the wives and young ladies ordered verbally in advance and only waited for the next day to pick up the goods.

Seeing the results of this effort, Mrs. Wu was very satisfied. She smiled and looked at Chu Liangrao who was sitting on the main seat listening to Zhou's mother's reply, but saw Chu Liangrao frowning and pursing her lips, looking worried .Looking away, Wu thought to herself that Chu Liangrao had helped the Yun family so much, no matter what, she should help Chu Liangrao relieve his worries.

Thinking of her standing up and complaining, she said she would sit aside.

These official ladies have already learned how to play checkers, so it doesn't matter if she is there or not, they just responded and continued to play their own.

Wu straightened her clothes, walked towards Chu Liangrao and asked, "What bothering princess has happened to you?"

Chu Liangrao thought that the Zhang family's affairs had become known all over the city, and it would be no harm to tell Mrs. Wu, so she asked Zhou's mother to repeat what she had just said.Wu shi could not help raising eyebrows when she heard this, she is not a person who is easily angered, but she also disdains Zhang Yixuan's actions.At the same time, she also knew that she could not interfere with the Zhang family's affairs, so she had no choice but to comfort Chu Liangrao with words.

Chu Liangrao understood Wu's situation very well, and didn't expect her to give any substantial help, so he just smiled and said: "This princess can't be angry with someone who doesn't matter." The topic changed , she said lightly, "But some people are clever enough to plot against this princess, this princess really can't just let it go!"

The plain tone made people feel chills. Wu lowered her brows and lowered her eyes, remembering her husband's evaluation of the princess——Princess Ning'an can do great things.Before, Mrs. Wu thought that Princess Ning'an was a woman no matter how capable she was. Although she was a little smarter, she couldn't be sure that she could do something extraordinary. Chu Liangrao admired such majesty.

Judging from Chu Liangrao's appearance, it seemed that she would not be kind to this matter, but she didn't know how she would deal with the Zhang family, so Wu Shi vaguely looked forward to it.

The purpose of Chu Liangrao's banquet today was to let people know about Checkers and Zhu Xiucai's fish pond, and now it can be regarded as the achievement of the goal, but as the host, if she leaves first, I am afraid that people will feel that something is wrong.Thinking of this, Mrs. Wu sincerely persuaded Chu Liangrao a few words. Chu Liangrao naturally understood this truth, and only let Mrs. Wu relax, and started joking with others again.

Seeing that Chu Liangrao was laughing at Yan Yan, Wu didn't feel annoyed at all, as if that formidable person just now was just an illusion.Concentrating her mind, Wu shi secretly thought that Chu Liangrao would show her ruthlessness in front of her today, and she must also warn the Yun family.

Wu couldn't help smiling wryly, not to mention her husband's active support for the princess's affairs, even the father-in-law, contrary to his previous prudence and directness, responded lightly to many of Princess Chu's requests.

Even though the profits of checkers are considerable, they are insignificant compared to other businesses of the Yun family. It seems that the father-in-law has given up a lot of profits to the princess.Although I haven't been married for a long time, Wu also knows that there is no business without adultery. Does the father-in-law mean to be a good person just because he wants to make friends with the palace?
But Chu Liangrao has kept this transaction a secret, so at this time it has little connection with the palace.

Sensing something strange, Mrs. Wu tightly squeezed the veil in her hand, until the lady at the side called her twice, then she came back to her senses and apologized with a smile: "Madam is naturally welcome if you can come."

After joking around, everyone returned home happily, and then Chu Liangrao called the guard who had confronted Zhang Yixuan in the morning to come in and answer.

The guard knew that something was wrong, knelt down on one knee and said: "The little one only wants to protect the princess well, and he acts recklessly, so he voluntarily accepts the punishment."

"As you said, you just protected me and deserved to be rewarded. Where's the punishment?" Chu Liangrao slightly raised his hand and said, "You guys have worked hard today." Then he nodded slightly at Mama Du down.

Mother Du took out two red envelopes for rewards, but the guard was about to decline when Chu Liangrao said, "You deserve it."

After the people left, Mother Du sighed and said, "There are really not many good people like the princess."

Chu Liangrao shook his head with a smile, and said, "Go back to your residence."

The group returned to the palace, and the old lady sent a book to ask Chu Liangrao about today's affairs. Mother Du, who was guarding the door, said with a smile: "The princess is exhausted today, and I will take a rest after bathing. Miss Shu'er has something to say like her mother, she must know everything."

Shu'er smiled and said, "Then I'll trouble Mom."

After saying a few superficial words, Shu'er went back, and then Mama Du entered the house.Seeing that Chu Liangrao and Zhou's mother were still ordering things, they went to order Ma Si's family to prepare supper, expecting that no one would come, so they closed the courtyard door.

Chu Liangrao really didn't eat anything today, and the supper he prepared was to his liking, so he used some.

After Chu Liangrao finished using up, the hot water for bathing was prepared, and after washing his body, Chu Liangrao went to bed.

Feeling tired, Chu Liangrao covered her mouth and yawned.

Seeing that Chu Liangrao was sleepy, Ding Lan nimbly pressed down the corner of the quilt, put down the curtain, then turned off the light and walked out quietly.

Chu Liangrao didn't sleep well that night, she woke up in the middle of the night, and couldn't fall asleep afterwards.He simply entered Linlang's space.Standing firmly, Chu Liangrao slowly opened his eyes, only to see Lin Lang floating in mid-air with his hands on his hips, looking down at him, his eyes... very unbearable.

Twisting his neck, Chu Liangrao said, "What are you doing standing so high, can't you come down and talk?"

Lin Lang still had a stern face, and said with a tug of [-]: "No! OK!"

Chu Liangrao didn't tell her too much, and went to the spring to wash his face with water.

Lin Lang turned around her in circles and asked as she turned, "What are you going to do?"

"Huh?" Chu Liangrao raised his face, crystal water drops flowed down his slender neck to his collar, looking pretty and delicious.

Lin Lang turned her head away and said displeasedly: "Don't pretend to be stupid with me, I asked you what you plan to do to the Zhang family? Then Mrs. Zhang made it clear that she was ordered by the queen to torment you. If you don't fight back, the next It's not that simple anymore."

Chu Liangrao also knew this truth, and said, "You can read people's minds, don't you know what I've done these days?"

Coughing unnaturally, Lin Lang said, "I want to rest, too? How would I know what you did..." To cover up, Lin Lang suddenly said, "Do you know who the husband-in-law your grandmother picked for you? ? Curious."

"A little bit, anyway, we will meet sooner or later." Chu Liangrao said indifferently.
