Lord, I have

Chapter 305 Who is Going to Report to an Official

"Thank you for helping my mother."

Su Han originally wanted to say that you are welcome, but when he heard Ling Ruichen say, "Thank you for helping my mother", his whole body was petrified.

Su Han knew that Ling Ruichen was the eldest son of the Hou family, so he logically said that he should call the wife of the Hou family his mother, but she had seen that the wife of the Hou family was a beautiful woman.He called the woman in front of him his mother, and Su Han immediately thought of Jiang Min's identity.

She wondered if calling Ling Ruichen like this would violate the big taboo of the Hou Mansion?

"Mr. Ling is too polite. I also want to thank my aunt. She was the one who protected me just now." Su Han smiled softly, "I still have to go to the embroidery shop to sell embroidery, so I will leave."

Now that their Su family has fallen to the point where they are worse than ordinary people, she doesn't want to have anything to do with the Ling family.

"Miss, you wait for this slave." Liu'er chased after her.

Looking at Su Han's thin back, Ling Ruichen frowned slightly. It had been so long since she hadn't seen her, she was much thinner than the last time I saw her.

He knew about the decline of the Su family and also knew that their whole family had moved out of the Minister's Mansion of the Ministry of Industry. Can she bear the disparity that the dignified daughter of the Su family is now wearing common clothes and selling embroidery to make ends meet?
Jiang Min felt helpless when she saw Ling Ruichen let Su Han leave like that. She knew her son, even though he didn't grow up with her, she knew his temper better than anyone else.

That girl is beautiful and kind-hearted, Jiang Min wonders if that girl from the Tian family is also like this?It would be great if it was.

"Ruichen, did you know that girl just now?" Jiang Min could see that the way Ling Ruichen and Su Han spoke just now did not look like strangers they had never met.

Ling Ruichen didn't hide anything, "She was Su Han, the second lady of the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Industry. Now that the Su family has been implicated, she has to make money by selling embroidery. It's unpredictable."

"No wonder, even though she's wearing common clothes, she doesn't look like an ordinary girl." Jiang Sensitively said.

Ling Ruichen took Jiang Min's hand and walked to his horse, "I'll help you get on the horse."

"It's such an hour, hurry up and ride to Cheng's mansion, it's not good to keep Tian's girl waiting for a long time." Jiang Min realized that his son was already late because of her.

"Mother, I didn't mean to ask her to wait. It happened for a reason. If she was a sensible woman, she wouldn't be angry because of this. Get on the horse!" Ling Ruichen helped Jiang Min onto the horse's back and led the reins away.

Looking at Ling Ruichen's broad back, Jiang Min hesitated to speak.

"Mother, the emperor has decided to let me enter the Ministry of Industry, and I will take you out after the imperial decree is issued." Ling Ruichen couldn't help telling his own mother the good news, "I will marry the girl from the Tian family if she respects you. If she can't do it, so be it."

"Ruichen, you can't ruin your marriage because of me. If the girl from the Tian family thinks that my status is low, then I will stay in the Hou's mansion. I have been used to it for so many years." Jiang Min smiled faintly, the biggest love in her life The wish is that the children can marry well, and she will feel happy when they are happy.

"Mother, you are my own mother. No matter who you are, Zhi'er and I will always love you. A woman who doesn't respect you, let alone me, Zhi'er will not agree to her being your daughter-in-law."

Ling Ruichen looked up at Jiang Min, "Father and mother will stand by my side in this matter."

Jiang Min sighed, "Send me back to the Hou Mansion, I've been out for too long."

"I'll take you to Cheng Mansion, you should be there." Ling Ruichen had already made up his mind.

Jiang Min panicked, she just wanted to sneak around Cheng's house and take a look, she didn't even want to go to see that Miss Tian family.

"Ruichen, don't make Mrs. Cheng and Mrs. Cheng difficult."

"Mother, from tomorrow onwards I will be Minister of the Ministry of Industry, I will not let anyone underestimate you, you know?" Ling Ruichen held the rein and his eyes sank, "I am here for everything."

Hong Cai sent by Ling Ruozhi saw Ling Ruichen leading the horse from a distance, and immediately ran over to meet him.

After entering Cheng Mansion, Jiang Min gave Hongcai a wink, "Hongcai, take me to Missy's yard so I can comb my hair."

Hongcai didn't know what to do, but she was clever, "Oh, come with the slave!"

Ling Ruichen glanced at Aunt Jiang, "Mother."

"You go to see Miss Tian's family first, I'll go to Zhier's place to clean up, you can't let me go like this." Jiang Min urged Ling Ruichen to leave quickly.

"Let my sister bring you over later." Ling Ruichen followed another maid to the other side.

Ling Ruozhi saw that Hongcai had brought Aunt Jiang back, "Mom, you didn't say anything when you came here, I'll send someone to pick you up."

"I didn't want to come, it's your elder brother." Jiang Min said her plan again, she really just wanted to meet her future daughter-in-law secretly, and never thought about meeting her face to face.

"Aunt Jiang, how did you meet your elder brother?" Ling Shengge knew that Aunt Jiang was moving out of the Hou Mansion, so she stopped calling her Aunt Jiang.

Jiang Min told the story of meeting a thief and working together with Su Han to catch the thief but being bullied by bad guys.

"Your elder brother is also stubborn. Then Miss Su did such a big favor for me, and his reputation was damaged. He didn't say thank you very much, so he just let Miss Su go."

"Miss Su?" Ling Shengge rubbed his chin and then asked Jiang Min who Miss Su was. When he found out that it was Su Han, he was stunned for a moment, "The Su family has fallen like that?"

Ling Ruozhi seldom went out in Cheng's residence, especially after she had a child, it was difficult for Madam Cheng to take her out to socialize. Cheng Xingchen was clingy, and if Ling Ruozhi left for a long time, the child would lift the cover of the house and howl.To be honest, it was easy to bring him in front of Ling Ruozhi, and he couldn't be punished by another person.

Ling Ruozhi couldn't believe it when Jiang Min said that Su Han made a living by selling embroidery. Back then, Su Han was considered one of the most talented women in Ling'an City. She needed good looks and talent because of Queen Su and the prince. The entire Su family was implicated.

It's a pity that Su Han, the dignified daughter of the Su family has to show her face.

Ling Ruozhi glanced at Ling Shengge, "Go and see her sometime."

"Yeah!" Ling Shengge had a good relationship with Su Han back then, and she thought that it would be great if Su Han could marry her elder brother, but unfortunately her elder brother didn't like him.

When Jiang Min came, Mu Linglong and Cheng Xingchen both woke up, and she didn't even think about going to see Miss Tian with her two children.

Ling Ruozhi stretched out her hand and tugged at Jiang Min's clothes, "Mother, didn't elder brother ask you to meet Miss Tian?"

"You can't listen to your elder brother's words. Although Lord Hou and his wife have treated me well and allowed me to live with your elder brother out of the mansion, I always feel that I will lose face to your elder brother. It would be bad for me to go over rashly and let the Tian family misunderstand me. Don't get involved again." You have a deadlock with your mother-in-law."

"Mother, mother-in-law, she won't blame me for such a trivial matter. Since you will live with your eldest brother and sister-in-law in the future, there is no difference between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who meet earlier and meet later."

Ling Shengge also persuaded her from the side, "Elder sister is right, Aunt Jiang, if Miss Tian can accept it, then everyone will be happy. If she doesn't accept elder brother, why marry her? You don't want to go and see for yourself? If Miss Tian is not your favorite What about the type?"

Since ancient times, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has been very delicate. Ling Shengge felt that Ms. Tian could not tolerate a grain of sand in her eyes because of her strong temper, and Aunt Jiang had lived a life of peace for many years. If Miss Tian and Aunt Jiang could not get along well, her eldest brother It can be difficult in the middle.

Seeing that the two children were persuading her like this, Jiang Min felt helpless, "I have my wife here, so I don't worry."

Yu Zizhen had a good relationship with her when she first entered Dingyuan Hou's Mansion, and she also believed that Yu Zizhen would choose this daughter-in-law for Ling Ruichen well.

Ling Shengge and Ling Ruozhi had no choice but to see that Jiang Min was determined not to show up. Ling Ruozhi asked Hongyue to go to the living room to see what was going on.

Ling Ruichen didn't go directly to the back house but went to the front yard. His father was discussing state affairs with Cheng Yushi and Cheng Zijin at this time, so it was strange to see him here.

"Ruichen, have you finished seeing Miss Tian so soon?" Ling Tao glanced at Ling Ruichen.

"No, I don't know what to say when we met." Ling Ruichen sat next to Cheng Zijin, and he recounted what the emperor had said to him today. Ling Tao was also pleasantly surprised to learn that his son was going to be Minister of the Ministry of Industry.

Cheng Yushi and Cheng Zijin congratulated Ling Ruichen at such a young age to reach the sky in one step, and his future is boundless.

Mrs. Cheng was a little anxious in the backyard at this time, and when she saw the expressions of her sister-in-law and niece had changed, she immediately asked people to go out to see why Ling Ruichen hadn't arrived yet.

Yu Zizhen sat on the side with a calm expression. A person's disposition can be seen from every detail. Miss Tian's quick temper is really an advantage, but she has a bit of a temper.

Of course, anyone who waits for someone for so long will lose his temper, but she doesn't agree with the behavior of Miss Tian who gets angry like this and throws the cup heavily no matter what the occasion is.

Ling Ruichen came late, Tian Yi could ask him directly when she saw him, even if she got angry with him, it was justifiable, but she broke the glass in front of innocent people like them, which made people dislike it.

Here are all her elders, no one has offended her at all, it is definitely not a well-bred behavior for her to vent her anger towards Ling Ruichen on them.

Yu Zi really knew that her opinion was very important to both Ling Tao and Aunt Jiang, and she would not persuade Ling Ruichen to marry if she didn't respect the elders, no matter how beautiful, capable or family they were.

Waiting for Ling Ruichen to come over now, the Ling family always has to give an explanation to the Tian family who has been waiting for so long.

Mrs. Cheng was a little embarrassed when Tian Yi broke the cup. She glanced at Yu Zizhen and found that Yu Zizhen's expression was calm and she didn't know what Yu Zizhen was thinking.

Tian Yi was a little dazed when she saw that the cup was broken. She had waited for a long time for Ling Ruichen not to show up, and she felt angry. Just now when the maid brought her herbal tea, she was a little heavy-handed after drinking it, and it broke unexpectedly.

Seeing the aunt's eyes was a bit scary, and her mother was also staring at her. She wanted to explain that she didn't spread her resentment towards Ling Ruichen on others, but when she thought that Ling Ruichen didn't care about meeting her so much, she was also angry. If the side apologized, I held back.

Mrs. Tian made her daughter so angry that her master had already heard the rumor that the emperor valued Ling Ruichen and wanted to make Ling Ruichen a high-ranking official. The Ling family is a hereditary marquis, and the emperor would not be able to take action against the Ling family without making a big mistake.

In addition, Ling Tao is the mentor of the current emperor and the father-in-law of Mu Changhuan who was named King Mu by the emperor. This status and status is not something ordinary people can match.

Ling Ruichen is highly regarded by the emperor, and the few people who studied with him in Baishan Academy are now very close to the emperor.Although he is a concubine, it is rare to have such a good mistress like Yu Zizhen. Mrs. Tian thinks that this son-in-law is the best candidate.

The daughter's temperament is also worrying. It's normal for a girl to have a temper, but it depends on the occasion.Mrs. Tian is also helpless for doing something wrong but still stubbornly refusing to admit it.

"Yi'er has been practicing martial arts since she was a child. She just asked Mrs. Ling not to take offense on purpose. This girl accidentally breaks a few cups and bowls every day. I remind her to be careful in the future." Mrs. Tian smiled Help Tian Yi explain.

The corner of Yu Zizhen's mouth twitched, "It's a good thing for a girl to practice martial arts to strengthen her body. My Sheng'er is weak and wants to learn. But it's good not to learn. I can save a lot of cups and bowls every month. "

Mrs. Cheng and Mrs. Tian were a little embarrassed when they heard what Yu Zizhen said. Although Yu Zizhen didn't say that Tian Yi was uneducated, what he said made people feel uncomfortable.

"Ma'am, the eldest son of the Ling family is here." The maid sent by Madam Cheng came back to report, and Madam Cheng breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

Mrs. Tian gave her daughter a wink, telling her not to show her temper, Tian Yi looked at the door dissatisfied.

Yu Zizhen saw a smile on Ling Ruichen's face the moment he came in, "Did something happen on the road? It made me worry a lot."

"It's something that was delayed, and it's my fault for making mother worry." Ling Ruichen greeted Mrs. Cheng and Mrs. Tian after entering the room, and nodded slightly when she saw Tian Yi, "Miss Tian."

No matter how big the dissatisfaction was when she saw Ling Ruichen, Tian Yi had met Ling Ruichen before, but he had seen him from a distance when she was in the academy, and when she saw him up close, she found that he was much more handsome and more beautiful than she imagined. charm.

Mrs. Tian was satisfied when she saw Ling Ruichen, and kept winking at Mrs. Cheng.

Mrs. Cheng was very happy to see that her sister-in-law and niece were very satisfied. The niece's face changed when she saw Ling Ruichen just now, which is also a good sign.

Ling Ruichen came late and first apologized, "I encountered some trouble on the road and just entered the mansion to see Mr. Cheng and my father. Please forgive me for coming too late."

"What's the trouble? Do you want me to help you?" Tian Yi couldn't help but make a sound.

"It's been resolved." Ling Ruichen glanced at Tian Yi, "Thank you Miss Tian for your kindness."

Yu Zizhen didn't see any emotional ups and downs from Ling Ruichen's face, and he didn't know whether he liked Tian Yi or not, and the time between men and women should not be too long.

"Ruichen, did your father say anything when you saw him?" Yu Zizhen winked at Ling Ruichen.

"My father told me to meet Miss Tian and make amends to Miss Tian and then go to see him." Ling Ruichen cupped his fists, "Mrs. Cheng, Mrs. Tian, ​​Miss Tian, ​​my father told me that I have some state affairs to discuss, so I will leave first. "

Yu Zizhen had a smile in his eyes, Brother Chen has been smart since he was a child.

She stood up, "Madam, it's not too early and we should go back."

Mrs. Cheng knew at a glance that he wanted to go back and discuss it, and besides, seeing each other for a long time was not good for her niece.

"I'll see you off." Mrs. Cheng glanced at Tian Yi.

Mrs. Tian and Tian Yi also got up to see each other off, and Yu Zizhen told them to go back at the door.

"Ruichen and I went to the front yard to look for Lord Hou. Mrs. Cheng, ask someone to tell Sheng'er to take Linglong to meet us in the front yard."

"I'll take you there." Mrs. Cheng sent someone to inform Ling Shengge, and then sent Yu Zizhen and Ling Ruichen to the front yard.

Mrs. Tian saw that Ling Ruichen had left and her daughter was still staring in that direction in a daze, "Yi'er, are you satisfied with the eldest son of the Ling family?"

Tian Yi nodded and admitted generously, "It's pretty good, better than those people I met before."

"I don't know what the eldest son of the Ling family means. Ask your aunt when she comes back." Mrs. Tian was also satisfied with Ling Ruichen, but she couldn't tell from Ling Ruichen's face that she didn't know whether he liked her daughter or not.

Mrs. Cheng was impatient, and couldn't help asking on the way to send Yu Zizhen and Ling Ruichen to the living room in the front yard.

"Mrs. Ling, do you think these two children are a good match?"

Yu Zizhen smiled slightly and glanced at Ling Ruichen, who coughed lightly.

Mrs. Cheng smiled, "Aren't you embarrassed? I think you and Yi'er are a good match. You are good at kung fu and Yi'er's is not too bad. If we really get married, the young couple will also be considered similar interests in the future. Better than marrying a weak girl."

Yu Zizhen twitched her cheek slightly, Ling Ruichen almost laughed out loud.

Mrs. Cheng is really straightforward when she talks about her temperament. The weak girl she talks about can overturn a whole boat.

Knowing that she had said the wrong thing, Mrs. Cheng almost slapped her on the mouth.He obviously wanted to say something good, but he didn't expect to offend others if he said it.

Linghou's wife and daughter, including her daughter-in-law, are all weak and weak, and her thoughtless speech made her worry herself.

Mrs. Cheng looked at Yu Zizhen with some embarrassment, "Mrs. Ling, I don't mean anything else, don't take it to heart."

"Mrs. Cheng, I know what you mean. I can't directly make decisions about Ruichen's marriage. I have to ask Lord Hou and his mother. After all, when Ruichen moves out of the Houfu, he will live with Sister Jiang."

Mrs. Cheng was stunned for a moment, "You want to leave the Hou Mansion?"

Ling Ruichen nodded, "After the emperor's imperial decree is issued, I will not live in the Hou Mansion."

Mrs. Cheng was a little puzzled. When Yu Zizhen and Ling Ruichen went into the living room to find Ling Tao, she was still thinking that this matter should be clarified with her sister-in-law and niece.

Cheng Xingchen hasn't played enough with his sister yet. Although Mu Linglong can't play except eating and sleeping every day, children like to be with children. Seeing that Mu Linglong wants to leave Cheng Xingchen, he is reluctant to leave, so he opened his arms To catch her.

"Xingchen, my sister is going home, mother will take you to Mu Mansion to play with her tomorrow, okay?" Ling Ruozhi coaxed Cheng Xingchen.

The one Cheng Xingchen dared not offend was his mother, although he didn't want Mu Linglong to go home, he still nodded.

After all, Jiang Min still didn't go to see Miss Tian's family. When she went back, she sat in the carriage and asked Yu Zizhen about Miss Jia's temperament and preferences.

Ling Shengge hugged Mu Linglong, "Aunt Jiang, you can tell from the way Eldest Brother doesn't like him very much."

Jiang Min glanced at Yu Zizhen, "Ma'am, what do you think?"

"Frank but tempered enough, I don't know if Ruichen would like a girl like her." Yu Zi told the truth without revealing her dislike for Tian Yi.

But Ling Shengge could tell as soon as she heard it, her mother didn't hit on that Miss Tian.

Ling Shengge got up early because of helping Ling Ruichen to see Miss Tian. When she returned to Mu Wangfu, Mu Changhuan hadn't come back yet. She fed her daughter to sleep, took a bath and fell asleep on the bed up.

When she was sleeping soundly, she felt that her back was warm, and she moved a few times and found that she couldn't break free.

Ling Shengge smelled a familiar scent, and she twisted her body, "It's so hot."

Mu Changhuan circled her from behind Ling Shengge, Ling Shengge opened his eyes and found that it was dark.

"Don't make trouble." She stretched out her hand to pat Mu Changhuan's big hand.

Mu Changhuan buried his chin in her hair, "It's been a year, and I don't know how to use it anymore."

Ling Shengge snorted, "Don't be so pitiful, Linglong should wake up, I'll go and see."

"She woke up a long time ago. I asked Bell to carry her to her father-in-law and mother-in-law."

Ling Shengge pulled his big hands away, turned around and put both hands against his chest, "You have learned how to chop first and play later, haven't you?"

Mu Changhuan looked at Ling Shengge with deep eyes, "Shengsheng, our time is limited, come quickly!"

That night Mu Linglong found out that someone else had eaten her meal, and after smelling it carefully, it seemed to be her father's smell.

The girl turned into a rage and ignored her father for three days in a row. When she saw her father, she reached out and covered her food and cried loudly, making Mu Changhuan look completely bewildered.
