Reborn I want to be a giant

Chapter 90

Brothers Wu Lingxi and Wu Lingxiu are in charge of greeting male guests of status and seniority today, Guo Shi, Qin Shi and the separated third wife are in charge of receiving female guests, and the sons of the Zong family are in charge of greeting their close relatives and friends and other visiting juniors.The weather is beautiful today, as if God is pampering Wu Zhenzhen.As soon as the Jiji ceremony was over, the guests were not in a hurry to go to the banquet. Some were busy making friends with each other, and some went to Changchun forest to recite poems to fight against each other. The little girls were more willing to enjoy flowers and butterflies during this season.The whole Wu Mansion was immersed in laughter and laughter, more lively than New Year's Eve.

"Where's Wu Ying?" Wu Lingzuo asked for the third time.

Wu Lingxi and Wu Lingxiu looked at each other, "They said they were on their way." Wu Lingzuo insisted on inviting Wu Ying and Cheng Fu, which made them very puzzled.It's okay to add trouble to yourself, it's a great day.And those two people are not necessarily willing to come.

"Fourth Uncle, Sixth Uncle, why aren't the brothers and sisters of the Cheng family here?" Wu Zhenzhen, who was well-dressed, stepped into the Xingsheng Hall with steady steps, followed closely by two maids who carried the complicated skirts for her.

Wu Zhenzhen is amazing today, and he must be happy.If someone made her frown, Mrs. Guo would not let her go lightly.But at this moment, she appeared in front of everyone with her mouth pouting, with an unhappy expression on her face, which scared the servants around her into panic.

"Oh little ancestor, you can't be like this today." Mrs. Guo hurriedly pulled people to her to coax her.

After finally making her precious granddaughter happy, Mrs. Guo turned her head and asked Wu Lingxi and Wu Lingxiu, "The brothers and sisters from the Cheng family haven't arrived yet?" It's fine if Wu Ying doesn't come.With the status and status of the brothers and sisters of the Cheng family, being able to participate in Wu Zhenzhen's Jiji ceremony is due to the virtues accumulated in the previous life.But the Jiji ceremony was over, and there was no one there, which clearly meant that the Wu family and today's distinguished guests were not taken seriously.

Mrs. Guo already had a calculation in her heart, if Cheng Fu really didn't show up today, she would tear down the Cheng family tomorrow, and let the siblings know what would happen if they offended her.

Wu Lingxi didn't say anything, but Wu Lingxiu asked curiously, "When did Zhen'er get on good terms with the Cheng brothers and sisters?" Isn't she happy enough that so many famous boys congratulated her today?
"The brothers and sisters of the Cheng family committed disrespect to their grandmother, father, and mother before. Today, I specially gave them this opportunity to kowtow and admit their mistakes. They should be grateful." Wu Zhenzhen said it clearly and logically, as if it was a matter of course.And the slightly tilted head looks a bit playful, it's hard not to like it.

Wu Lingxiu groaned slowly, with a subterranean smile and said, "Then Sixth Uncle will urge you again..."

"Master, Young Master Wu Ying is here. I'm in Changchun Forest to talk to Dingzhi County at the moment, so I can't come over." The mother who sent the message was in a hurry, so she didn't notice that she interrupted Wu Lingxiu.

"He is noble, he is the ancestor." Guo's yin and yang voice came.

She was socializing, and found that the masters had disappeared, and today's master, her precious Wu Zhenzhen, didn't know where she went, so she wondered if they would all be resting in Xingsheng Hall, so she came over to see what happened in person .

"Go and bring him here." Ever since he let out a stern breath after smashing Lianghexuan, Guo's self-confidence has increased, and now he dares to be justified to anyone.

Mammy hesitated for a moment, but complied anyway.

Mrs. Guo is a little tired, impatient to waste time on a white-eyed wolf at this juncture, "Isn't the auspicious time here early? Let's start the banquet in my opinion. If you have anything to say at the table," she didn't know either. Why did Wu Lingzuo insist on inviting Wu Ying? They are all enemies, and they may not die in the future. Is it necessary to force that little family affection?

The Wu family suffered heavy losses in Hangzhou. There was no money in the clan's public accounts, and other clansmen lived a normal life. Only Wu Ying had Lianghexuan and Hongzexing, who were making money every day. Who else could divide the money for the clan besides him? worry.However, this white-eyed wolf not only escaped, but also killed the clan elder.

Mrs. Guo was angry for a long time when she heard from her daughter what had happened these days, and felt incredible that the Wu family did not deal with Wu Ying.The Guo family only said that Wu Lingzuo had raised Wu Ying after all, and had always treated him like his own son. How many sons have cheated his father through the ages, and his father was willing to kill his relatives righteously?Mrs. Guo thought about it, and she also felt that this was the truth.But he looked down on Wu Ying even more in his heart.

Ding Zhi County's real name is Ding Da, he is an official in Dongqiao County, and Ding Tong is a distant relative who went out of Wufu.

The Ding family is not as good as the previous generation, and there are not many members in Ding Tong's generation.So when he learned that there was another Ding Da, he took the initiative to send a message to contact him.Ding Da didn't feel that the other party was trying to climb him on purpose, so he happily replied to the letter, and became close to each other.

Ding Da didn't want to come this time. Wu's family has five farms in Dongqiao County. The stewards of the farms usually show off their power and run wild in the village.If he didn't come, the villagers would not agree, for fear that he would offend the Wu family, and they would not even have a field to plant in the future.

However, he did not come to Jinling this time purely to praise the Wu family.

Ding Tong has always understood his situation, so he often mentions Wu Ying's Hongzexing and Lianghexuan, especially Lianghexuan, in his correspondence.Ding Tong said that they have a business that has not produced official documents and is open to the public, which is to help weaker industries and merchants. Now several poor painting academies, embroidery workshops, medical centers, and fisheries in Jinling are supported by Lianghexuan. All have improved.

Ding Tong suggested that he must guard Wu Ying when he comes to Jinling this time, maybe the other party can help him.

"There is another owner in Lianghexuan. How about sending some people to Dongqiao County to have a look after I discuss with her?" In the past, Wu Ying was not an old-fashioned and warm-hearted person. It was Cheng Fu's series of support measures that changed over him.He didn't lose money while helping others, and he also earned a thank you from others. This feeling was something he had never had before.

Ding Da didn't expect it to go so smoothly, and suddenly felt a strange feeling of accidentally hugging a thick leg, which was both subtle and joyful.Strike while the iron is hot, he wanted to simply tell the other party the situation in Dongqiao County, but before he could sort out his words, he was interrupted by a young maid of the Wu family, saying that the banquet was about to begin, and Wu Lingzuo invited them over.

So the two stopped continuing the previous topic, chatted about some things, and let the maid lead the way.

The Wu family has a special place for banquets, in a corner of the Xiao Garden, close to the largest garden of the Wu family.It can be as big as a banquet for thousands of people, or as small as a small gathering.

"I know she is different from us, but this is too much." Wu Zhenyue, the sixth-bedroom concubine, is envious and aggrieved for not having a good pregnancy.

Wu Zhencheng, who just got married last year, is also the sixth-bedroom concubine, pinched her younger sister, looked around vigilantly, and said in a low voice: "Stop talking, don't you know that the house is full of big aunt's eyes?" Said Anyone can, just can't say Wu Ziqi and Wu Zhenzhen.Because the Guo family can do such things as forcing the concubine, concubine, and other cousins ​​of the clan to kneel down and admit their mistakes to their children.

The more Wu Zhenyue thought about it, the more aggrieved she became, she was obsessed with jealousy, and refused to go to the banquet anyway.Wu Zhencheng couldn't help it, so he had to drag her to sit in another part of Xiaoyuan, and wait for her to figure it out before going there.Anyway, both of them are concubines, and no one pays attention to them, and no one will care when they are present.

When Wu Ying and Ding Da were about to reach Xiaoyuan, they stopped abruptly. Perhaps the little girl in front was in a hurry, so she didn't notice that the two people behind her had stopped, and they still walked forward on their own.

Wu Ying waited some distance from the maid, and said to Ding Da beside her, "Master Ding, we intend to cooperate, but we haven't written off the characters yet, so we can't count them. You can decide after today."

Ding Da thought that the other party already knew that the situation in Qiao County was complicated, and after careful consideration, he still felt that it was not easy to operate, and temporarily regretted it, so he hinted that he retreated in spite of the difficulty.Ding Da was not very good at concealing, thinking he understood what Wu Ying said, his expression changed from joy to sorrow, and he responded with a bitter face.

A dignified magistrate, Wu Ying was a little annoyed by the appearance of this wronged little daughter-in-law. She wanted to explain that she didn't mean it that way, but she didn't know where to start.And the maid in front finally realized that she had left her behind, so she trotted back with an apologetic face and continued to lead them forward.So far, the two have not spoken again.

When they arrived at Xiaoyuan, there were still a small number of guests not seated, the male guests and the female guests were separated by a long distance, but the excitement was mixed together.Wu Ying glanced at the crowd boredly, thinking that Wu Lingzuo must be sick, so she asked him and Cheng Fu to come.Aren't you afraid that extreme joy will give rise to sorrow?

There is often a kind of plot in the little girl's storybook: wicked people die from nagging, good people die from chivalry;

At this time, a simple carriage was slowly coming towards the Wu Mansion. Behind the carriage were three men with bruised noses and swollen faces and ragged clothes. This scene was quite shocking, causing the people along the road to look sideways, and some even stopped their hands. In the middle of the work, come forward to watch the fun.

……

After the guests entered the table one after another, Wu Ling Zuoguang talked for nearly half an hour. Wu Ying, who was sitting in the tribe's section, was really a little hungry, thinking about when the food would be served.But in this brief moment of distraction, without knowing what happened, everyone turned their attention to him.

Wu Yongling arched him with an elbow, "I'm calling you, go up quickly."

Wu Ying was puzzled, but more and more members of the tribe began to urge him.

"Where to go?"

Wu Yongling pulled him up and pushed him away, only to realize that Wu Lingzuo had been looking at him, not to mention how loving his eyes were, he had never seen such a loving uncle in his life.So much so that he suspected for a moment that the other party was possessed by evil spirits.

"...Aying is a junior in our clan. With the strength of one person, he managed Hongzehang and Lianghexuan to flourish. Hongzehang's timber and seafood, and Lianghexuan's... oh, sorry, You probably don’t know what Lianghexuan does for a living, do you? The bustling long-distance race in Jinling last year was hosted by Lianghexuan... It’s a blessing for our family to have a nephew like Aying.” Wu Lingzuo finished , did not forget to pat Wu Ying's shoulder heavily.

"Hey, it turns out that the owner of Lianghexuan is from the Wu family, no wonder the long-distance race is held so well."

"Yeah, if I wasn't in Jinling last year, I would have participated."

"But how did I hear that Mrs. Wu went to smash Lianghexuan a while ago?"

"Yeah, I've heard that too, and the city is full of trouble. What's going on here?"

The guests exchanged rumors that they didn't know were true or false.

Wu Ying thought that the other party would use his background to humiliate him, and use his status as an elder and suzerain to force him to do things against his will in public, but he never thought that the other party would mention Hongzexing and Lianghexuan.

He moved away two steps calmly, deliberately kept a distance from Wu Lingzuo, and explained with a smile: "Sect Master Wu is too famous, Hongzehang and Lianghexuan are small businesses, earning some meat money for the New Year, Wu Yingjue I don't have the face to compare with others." He was not angry, he knew it was a Hongmen banquet, even if he had to risk his life today, he would accompany him.
