Chapter 1039 Who is better

After Ning Zhao finished speaking, he looked at Patriarch Li with a half-smile, she had already given them the steps, so if he wanted to go up the stairs, he could do it.

Patriarch Li still didn't realize the deep meaning in Ning Zhao's words, but Patriarch Yang on the side intercepted Patriarch Li's words, "Ma'am, you are right. We received news from Elder Yun a long time ago that we had already prepared for the return of the city lord. The welcome ceremony was finished, but you didn't mobilize the crowd to return quietly. We wanted to visit the Santo's mansion, but we were told that the Santo would not see visitors behind closed doors, so we decided to hold a banquet together to welcome the Santo."

Although Patriarch Yang's words had some loopholes, he had to admit that compared to Patriarch Li's, his words were much more polite.After all, the reason to worry about the safety of the city lord because the city lord's mansion closed its doors to thank guests is far better than being disrespectful to the city lord.

Ning Zhao is very satisfied with Patriarch Yang's understanding of current affairs.She glanced lightly at Patriarch Li, and then praised Patriarch Yang with a smile, "Thank you, Patriarch Yang should drink and eat well today. Thanks to your concern, our husband and wife are very safe."

"As for Patriarch Li, if you feel that I have misunderstood you, you can also speak up in public. This will make it easier for us to correct it!"

Although Ning Zhao was full of smiles, none of the people present were stupid. They could easily hear the coolness in her words, and the so-called smile didn't reach their eyes.

Patriarch Yang sensed Ning Zhao's urgency and responded repeatedly.Although Patriarch Li was unwilling, he could tell that Ning Zhao deliberately wanted to give them a bad impression today, and if he said otherwise, he would most likely be the one who stood out.

Therefore, he didn't dare to be a monster anymore. He bowed to Ning, and his mouth was full of humility, "Ma'am, I just joked. Our Li family will definitely look after the city lord's mansion in the future. This is a generous gift prepared by our Li family for the city lord. Please accept it with a smile." .”

After speaking, he motioned to the servants behind him to present a rectangular gift box. Ning Zhao smiled and asked Qingcheng to accept it, praised Patriarch Li a few words, and then called everyone to take their seats quickly.

No one cares what they think, but at least the Li family and the Yang family have expressed their surrender to the City Lord's Mansion.Ning Zhao's eyes fell on Patriarch Bai's face, and he saw that he was still lowering his head slightly, and he didn't know what he was thinking, as if he was unaware of what happened just now, or that he was deliberately pretending to be stupid, and then ignored Mo Mo. Juechen and Ning Zhao.

"Does Patriarch Bai feel ashamed to see me?" Mo Juechen took Ning Zhao's hand and sat back on the seat, and asked Patriarch Bai who had been bowing his head in a dull voice.

"Subordinates dare not!" Patriarch Bai came back to his senses, and finally looked up at Mo Juechen, with even more fear in his eyes.Perhaps it was because he had too deep acquaintance with the Mo city master a hundred years ago, but at this moment, the Bai family master clearly expressed this knowledge and fear.

After saying that he didn't dare, Patriarch Bai didn't know how to talk more with Mo Juechen, but Bai Jingyao who was on the side took over the conversation and cupped his hands at Mo Juechen, "My father often mentioned the demeanor of City Master Mo to us. The city lord returns with admiration in his heart. Now it can be regarded as being closer to the hometown, so I ask the city lord to forgive me."

The words were clear and well-organized, not only expressing Patriarch Bai's respect for Mo Juechen, but also attributing his current cowardly behavior to being closer to his hometown. It was obviously the same action, but after changing the words, it was obviously more lofty.

Even Ning Zhao couldn't help but be convinced. Bai Jingyao's words were extremely beautiful. If Mo Juechen attacked Patriarch Bai again, it would be a bit more deliberate, and it would inevitably arouse the public anger of the other two families.
