Chapter 216: Father

"Third Master?"

It was Laixing who was serving outside, and when he heard that he was going to kill Cuizhi with a cane, his face showed hesitation.

"What, Uncle Lai, is Mingshan not qualified to call you?" Zhou Mingshan laughed quietly, "Or is Uncle Lai now old, deaf and blind, unable to hear the master's commands clearly, and can't see the shape clearly?"

She said this very seriously, if it was in the past, she would definitely not treat Laixing like this, after all, Laixing is the most trusted person around her father.

But now, she looked at Zhou Ze and smiled faintly, there is no need to scruple so much!

"The villain doesn't dare, the four girls are serious!" Lai Xing bowed and saluted, and his posture was very low.

Zhou Mingshan nodded, ignoring him, proper beating is a must, and it will not be good if it is over.

The two of them were playing on the side, and Zhou Ze's expression changed on his face, but he didn't speak, only his calm face didn't know what he was thinking.

Seeing that Zhou Ze didn't seem to have any objections, Laixing also knew what to do, and personally stepped forward to push Cuizhi out.

"Third master, third master, you promised the slave, have you forgotten, third master, third master......" Cuizhi shouted heartbreakingly, and she was unwilling to look back at Zhou Ze, there were some things she couldn't say, but the third master promised her godmother to take good care of her, how could she not believe it?

The corners of Zhou Ze's mouth twitched twice, as if he wanted to say something, a trace of struggle flashed on his face, and he finally closed his eyes and turned his head sideways.

Seeing his appearance, Zhou Mingshan secretly sighed and didn't say anything more.

It was the first time her hands had been bloodied, but she had no fear or regrets.

People are good and are deceived by others. Sure enough, it is an eternal truth.

Seeing that the main house was about to lose ground, everyone wanted to come up and step on it. If she hadn't figured out this qiē early, the black cauldron that poisoned the concubine would have been on her mother's back. In this way, it is a big damage to her reputation, although she doesn't care.

As for what Cuizhi and the people behind her are going to do, she already has a rough guess, since this is the case, then it depends on whose Tao is higher!

After this incident, Sanfang listened to the idle residence for a few days, and the people even seemed to be walking a little softer, seeing Zhou Mingshan. The timid girl didn't even dare to come out, and several even secretly avoided her and took a detour.

I heard that after the cane killed Cuizhi that day, it took most of the day to clean the blood in front of the flower hall.

For these, Zhou Mingshan smiled, afraid that it would not be better.

"Mama has worked hard, thank you Mu Shizi for me!"

This time, it was really thanks to Mu Shizi's help outside, otherwise it wouldn't have come to light so quickly.

Mama An glanced at Zhou Mingshan and replied. "The prince said that they are all entrusted by others, so you don't have to take it to heart!"

Again, the same is true for the last time I invited Imperial Doctor Ning into the house. Mu Yuting's tone seemed to wish he hadn't been involved with her in the slightest!

No matter what, it's true that others have helped, and Zhou Mingshan doesn't want to worry about him. Then he nodded, "That's fine!"

Mama An looked at her again when she wanted to speak. A look of hesitation.

Zhou Mingshan put down the teacup, "Are you okay?"

Mama Ann paused. Only then did he whisper, "The Duchess is back!"

Zhou Mingshan was taken aback, "Duchess Xianguo has come back from the border pass?"

Mama An seemed to want to solve her puzzles, and said in great detail, "Well, I came back a few days ago, and I almost couldn't catch the New Year, I heard that it was for the marriage of the son!"

I see, Zhou Mingshan understands.

Mu Yuting has made great contributions to the west, and I don't know how many people in the palace and outside the palace are worried about him, but the Duke and Mrs. Xianguo are not there, and Mrs. Xu doesn't want to be involved with these people, so she has to excuse that her parents are not there, and she is not good alone, but it is always bad after a long time, and it is even more inappropriate to offend everyone.

It seems that the Duchess of Xianguo is back to settle the matter.

Other people's affairs have nothing to do with her, and Zhou Mingshan is just listening to it.

After Laba, it will soon be a small year, and the end of the year is approaching.

The eldest grandmother Wen is no longer in charge of the middle feed since the disappearance of the uncle, so this year's banquet is all organized by Mrs. Hou's Yang.

But the entire Hou Mansion still has a trace of popularity except for Chunhui Hall, and the other rooms seem to have fallen into a dead silence, and they will no longer be lively in previous years.

Zhou Mingshan listened to the news handed back by Hongyun, and smiled mockingly, but it was just a title of the Marquis of Xingyuan, so these people were like black-eyed chickens, you fight with me, and you don't even want to do that layer of kung fu on the surface!

"Girl, what shall we do?" asked Hongyun with some concern.

Zhou Mingshan said coldly, "Don't do it, anyway, those people won't be able to do anything if they jump around, let's just wait to see a good show!"

This Spring Festival in the fourteenth year of Xianqing may be a time for other families to reunite and spend joy together, but for the masters of the Xingyuan Marquis Mansion, it is indeed a strange and unforgettable day.

The Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was still placed in the flower hall in front of Chunhui Hall, and girls of all sizes shuttled back and forth, and exquisite dishes were served on the table.

In the end, it is the Hou Mansion, even if it is not good, you have to take care of your face.

Zhou Mingshan glanced at it, the dishes were almost the same as in previous years, nothing more than chicken, duck, fish, beef and mutton, etc., sent here from the big kitchen, even if there was a warm food box, it was warm when it was sent to the table after being delayed for so long in the winter.

She picked up a few pieces of incense and put her chopsticks aside, focusing on Yun Shen at the main table opposite.

What does grandfather mean by letting Yun Shen come to today's family dinner?

The people in the other rooms also seemed to be very surprised that this person appeared here, especially the second master Zhou Jing, with a calm face, and glanced at the other side from time to time.

He sat on the lower left of Hou Ye, and that Yun Shen actually sat on the lower right.

Thinking of the news he heard before, Zhou Jing became more and more annoyed, and couldn't help but be so angry that he asked the girls to pour wine into the cup in front of him.

"Second brother, drink slowly!" Fourth Master Zhou Shen saw him like this and stopped him.

Zhou Jing waved him away and said in a rough voice, "You don't care about me!"

I drank several glasses in quick succession, and I didn't stop until my face was flushed.

Then he stood up suddenly, so strong that he knocked down the chair behind him, only to hear a "sparse uproar", and the eyes of the entire flower hall were attracted by him.

Zhou Jing grinned as if he hadn't seen it, "Come on, fill it for me!"

The little girl serving on the side trembled and stepped forward to pour the wine, and quickly retracted into the corner.

Zhou Jing shook his body, picked up the wine glass and swayed two steps forward, and then stopped in front of Hou Ye Zhou Jiancheng, and said with a smile while burping, "Dad...... Dad, are you still my own father?"

After saying a word, the room suddenly fell silent, and it was so terrifyingly quiet that if a needle fell on the ground at this time, I am afraid that it can be heard. (To be continued.) )
