Chapter 152
The king lay on Lingbao's lap, his tail dangling slowly.

Cheng Zhongqian looked down, called Xiao'er, asked him to serve a bowl of fried small fish, put it on the chair next to him, and pushed the king: "Go over there to eat."

The king passed away after smelling the fragrance.

Cheng Zhongqian himself is a person who likes to make friends. He was closed for some reasons before, but after a year, he has gradually opened up. In the county school, except for Zhu Wencheng and his dog legs, everyone else has no relationship with him. good.

But obviously there is no time for socializing today.

Lingbao is short and can't reach the food. Cheng Zhongqian has been serving her for dinner. There is a stewed fish on the table that Lingbao likes to eat very much. He is afraid that she will be stuck by the thorns. bowl.

Others were all toasting each other, but the two of them seemed to be here for a feast, and after eating this and that, their mouths never stopped.

If you eat something you haven't eaten before, Lingbao will share it with the king.

Unknowingly, the voice of complimenting each other gradually quieted down. Everyone looked at Lingbao, who was eating with a happy face, and swallowed involuntarily. Today's meal looks so delicious.
Zhu Wencheng frowned in dissatisfaction, and asked deliberately: "Cheng Zhongqian, do you think you can pass the county exam?"

Cheng Zhongqian is really too lazy to talk to him, stupid and bad is a word tailored for Zhu Wencheng, and he doesn't know why he always stares at him.

"Didn't you hear what I asked you?" Zhu Wencheng raised his voice.

Cheng Zhongqian knew what he was up to. If he said he had no confidence, Zhu Wencheng would wantonly suppress his self-esteem;

He was about to answer that he didn't know, when he heard Ling Bao crisply say: "Of course, my father will definitely pass the exam!"

Zhu Wencheng sneered: "Are you too confident?"

Ling Bao tilted his head in doubt: "He is my father, of course I have to have confidence in my father. Don't you think your son has confidence in you, uncle?"

Zhu Wencheng was speechless, and was stabbed in the heart.

Not only his child, the whole family has no confidence in him. Although Master Zhu sends Zhu Wencheng to the county school every year, he knows that he has no talent for reading, otherwise he would not have funded and made friends with so many scholars. In case something happens in the future, someone can save him.

Zhu Wencheng became angry from embarrassment: "You are a girl, why do you talk so much?"

Lingbao felt that this person was really annoying, it was obviously him who asked the question, and it would be fierce if he just asked it back.

Cheng Zhongqian patted her head, glanced at Zhu Wencheng coldly, and said to Lingbao: "You know, only when you poke a person's weak point, he will be very angry."

He almost pointed at Zhu Wencheng's nose and said, "I'm talking about you".

But Lingbao nodded very seriously, pointed at Zhu Wencheng and said, "Is it like this uncle?"

Cheng Zhongqian nodded calmly.

Zhu Wencheng's face was twisted, and the others rushed to pull him.

"Calm down, Wen Cheng, she's still a child, she speaks like a child!"

"That's right, do you want to save your face when it gets out? It's normal for a child to not be able to speak."

"Sit down, let's not talk about this."

Zhu Wencheng's face was as ugly as if he had eaten shit. These familiar words used to make him apologize to others when he got into trouble before.

It's his turn today, only then did he realize that this feeling is hard to describe in words!

After a long time, Zhu Wencheng calmed down when he thought of his purpose today, and said, "Later, I will invite you to Baihualou for a drink, and order whoever you like!"

Lingbao asked curiously: "Where is Baihualou?"

Mu Xinzhi's expression was uncomfortable, and he couldn't explain "Baihualou" to a child!

Cheng Zhongqian pressed Lingbao's head and coughed lightly: "Don't worry, it has nothing to do with you."

Lingbao blinked and looked at the king in confusion.

The king said: "The name sounds like Hualou!"

Hualou? !
Lingbao has never seen it before, but Lingbao heard from the aunts and aunts in the village that there are monsters that can eat people in the flower building. Once a man enters, his soul will be sucked away. Some men will have their wives and children. No more!

Lingbao was terrified, and immediately hugged Cheng Zhongqian's arm and said, "Daddy, don't go!"

Zhu Wencheng: "That's not okay. Everyone else will go, but your father won't. Is that appropriate?"

Lingbao nodded without thinking: "It's suitable."

Zhu Wencheng: "."

He didn't bother to talk to Lingbao, and asked Cheng Zhongqian directly, a little aggressively: "Cheng Zhongqian, you don't really want to listen to your daughter, do you?"

Men are good at saving face, and filial piety is the first priority. There are still some people who don't listen to their parents for the sake of face, let alone the father who listens to his daughter.

Cheng Zhongqian just wants to not take the usual path.

"Yes." He nodded without any hesitation, "No."

Zhu Wencheng: "."

He was speechless a lot today.

"You, masculine man, listen to the child, are you still a man?"

Cheng Zhongqian said blankly: "Whether I am a man or not has nothing to do with you."

Lingbao nodded in agreement, that's right.

"Whether you are a man or not has nothing to do with whether you go to Hualou or not." Cheng Zhongqian said, "If you want to prove that you are a man, then don't idle around and do not do your job properly. If you are capable, go to battle to kill the enemy and regain lost ground."

Zhu Wencheng: "You!"

Everyone hurriedly got up and tried again, why doesn't he just have such a temper, why did you provoke him?
Sitting next to Cheng Zhongqian, Mu Xinzhi shook his head dumbfounded: "You are indeed his nemesis."

Cheng Zhongqian didn't even raise his head: "I'd rather he treat me like air." It would save me looking for trouble all day long.

Mu Xinzhi was poked at the point of laughter, and he didn't dare to laugh so blatantly, his face turned red.

Lingbao said worriedly: "Uncle, don't hold yourself back."

Mu Xinzhi couldn't help it this time, and burst out laughing.

Zhu Wencheng was persuaded to come down again, his face was extremely ugly, but he didn't walk away uncharacteristically, which made people feel that he seemed to be more sensible.

While everyone was chatting, Zhu Wencheng went out for a while, and not long after, he came back with a flagon.

The king said firmly, "He must have drugged the wine."

Lingbao stared vigilantly at the flagon in Zhu Wencheng's hand.

Zhu Wencheng didn't know that he had been exposed, so he walked over and poured a glass for Cheng Zhongqian, saying that he wanted to make amends for him.

Cheng Zhongqian just wanted to keep him away from him, so he picked up the wine glass and drank it without saying anything.

Ling Bao was restless, pointing out the window and shouting in desperation: "Look!"

Everyone looked over subconsciously, Lingbao and Dawang took this opportunity to exchange the wine glasses of Cheng Zhongqian and Zhu Wencheng.

"What are you looking at?"

Ling Bao smiled foolishly, and said guiltily: "I was wrong."

She's so cute, who would blame her.

Zhu Wencheng watched Cheng Zhongqian swallow the glass of wine in one gulp, smiled sinisterly in his heart, returned to his seat leisurely, and picked up the glass.

Good wine!

 Little knowledge: The word "wife" first appeared in the Tang Dynasty, but at that time it referred to an old woman, and in the Song Dynasty it could refer to a wife.
