Chapter 78
And the concubines in the backyard of the city lord's mansion began to frequently receive letters from the forces behind their respective backs, asking various questions.
The concubines themselves are also anxious to prepare gifts. They all want to be in the limelight, and no one wants to be left behind.
These days, Jane Ning is the most relaxed.
Qingfeng is busy every day, and there is no time for two people to eat together.
Qingfeng sent a small servant to send the best food to Jian Ning's yard every day.
There was a mess of work outside, and Jian Ning was able to eat a quiet bite of food in her own room, she felt really relaxed and comfortable.
Jian Ning realized at this time that if she really let Qingfeng cancel the banquet that day, she didn't know how much trouble it would bring him.
The day before Qingfeng's birthday, almost all the inns in the city were full.
Qingfeng City is now full of people, and the whole city is lively.
Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes.
Where there are people, there are rights and wrongs, and all kinds of gossip.
Because everyone is here for Qingfeng's birthday, the discussion of Qingfeng and the City Lord's Mansion has become the most mainstream gossip in the gossip flying all over the sky.
Especially the discussion of Qingfeng's concubines is the most positive.
Inevitably, slowly, everyone mentioned the name Janine more and more.
Jian Ning's beauty, as well as Jian Ning's transcendent status among the women in the City Lord's Mansion, are all talked about by everyone.
Qingfeng's birthday feast officially began on this day.
There are many visitors, but the city lord's mansion is not small.
Steward Liu deliberately set up a lot of tables in the largest courtyard of the City Lord's Mansion to entertain guests.
This morning, Qingfeng got up early and came to Jian Ning's place.
As soon as Jian Ning got up, she saw the breeze coming, and she was busy washing.
Qingfeng smiled, "Don't panic, I'm fine, I'm just coming to see you." I've brought you breakfast. β
Jian Ning looked at it, and the little maid put the breakfast on the table.
Xiao Su was combing Jian Ning's hair, and Qingfeng was sitting next to her.
Jian Ning looked through the mirror and looked at Qingfeng, "How are you preparing?"
Qingfeng "has Steward Liu here, you can rest assured." He's done my birthday feast many times. There will be no mistakes. β
Janine: "Oh. That's good. Breeze, I want to say ,......"
Qingfeng "What do you want to say?"
Jian Ning: "Wait a minute, can I not go to the feast?"
Qingfeng was curious, "Tell me why." β
Jian Ning turned his head and looked at Qingfeng timidly, "No matter how big the feast is, those people are all outsiders, aren't they?"
I don't want to go, I'm too lazy to socialize. I don't see the politeness and hypocrisy between people.
So, can I not go?"
Qingfeng listened to it and sighed in his heart, his Jian Ning turned out to be such a refined and beautiful person.
Qingfeng smiled, "Okay, you can not go."
I'm in charge.
No one dares to find fault with you. β
The stone in Jian Ning's heart fell to the ground. "Hmm. Thank you. You're so nice. β
Qingfeng smiled.
Jian Ning finished combing her hair. Xiao Su waited and began to eat breakfast.
Qingfeng looked at Jian Ning lovingly, watching her every move, and only felt that her heart was full of happiness.
Jian Ning: "Why do you keep looking at me and don't speak?"
Would you like to eat some more? β
Qingfeng shook his head, "No, I've eaten it." β
At this time, Steward Liu came over.
Steward Liu: "Lord of the city, the guests outside have come with some relatively high status. You may be required to come and meet in person. β
Qingfeng nodded, "Okay, I see." Let's go. β
Steward Liu: "Yes." β
Qingfeng said to Jian Ning, "Then I'll go." You will rest in your yard today. I'll have someone bring it over for lunch. β
Jain: "Okay." β
Qingfeng said to Xiao Su again, "Today, the people in the house are quite mixed, you lock the courtyard door." If you're not familiar with someone, don't just open the door. Take care of you girls. β
Xiao Su hurriedly bowed and saluted, "Yes, Lord City Lord!
Qingfeng was relieved.
Jian Ning sent Qingfeng to the entrance of the courtyard, and then Xiao Su locked the courtyard door.
Then the master and servant returned to their courtyard.
Jian Ning sat on her floor in a relaxed mood, and Xiao Su stood beside her.
Xiao Su: "Girl, what do you want to do? β
Jain: "Well, I thought, read the book, keep reading." ...... Hey, what about the book I didn't finish reading last time?"
Xiao Su: "I want to think about it, I think about it, I'm going to move it for you." β
Xiao Su brought a stack of books.
Jian Ning leaned comfortably on the collapse and looked at it.
Xiao Su took the embroidery work that she would never finish and continued to embroider.
The breeze has arrived at the scene of the banquet where the guests gathered.
The feast had not yet begun.
Everyone was talking in twos and threes.
The breeze is interspersed in the middle, and everyone wants to talk to the breeze.
But the breeze is not everyone's business. He only chatted with a few visiting city lords of comparable status, or envoys sent by the city lords, and chatted with each other.
It didn't take long for Yuan Yan to find the breeze.
Yuan Yan is followed by his eldest sister Yuan Fei.
Qingfeng remembered that Old Man Yuan's birthday, and Yuan Fei's misleading of Jian Ning. No matter how you look at Yuan Fei at this time, Qingfeng feels unpleasant.
simply didn't pay attention to Yuan Fei's salute, but just started talking to Yuan Yan, treating Yuan Fei as transparent.
This made Yuan Fei angry.
But in this public, Yuan Fei didn't dare to lose her temper. She was also afraid that others would say that she was uneducated and a shrew.
Yuan Yan actively chatted and talked with Qingfeng, but he didn't notice that Yuan Fei was angry.
Of course, even if he found out, he didn't bother to care. These careful eyes of girls are really a headache.
Yuan Yan chatted with Qingfeng for a few words, and wanted to talk about some major events in the city.
But Yuan Fei was beside her, and Yuan Yan always felt that it was in the way.
It just so happened that at this time, the little granddaughter of Master Xu's family passed by here, and this little granddaughter also knew Yuan Fei.
When he saw Yuan Fei, he enthusiastically pulled Yuan Fei to play with her little sister.
Yuan Fei didn't want to go, she still wanted to stay in front of Qingfeng for a while.
Yuan Yan couldn't wait to push Yuan Fei out, "Hurry up, hurry up, go and play with your sisters, don't always be here." I have serious business to say to Qingfeng, you are in the way here. β
Qingfeng nodded, indicating that this was indeed the case.
Yuan Fei followed the little granddaughter of Master Xu's family away.
Yuan Yan clapped his hands, relieved, "Finally gone." The two of us are talking about big things, she is always here, and she is awkward. β
Qingfeng nodded, "I think so too." What big deal are you going to say. β
Yuan Yan chin turned forward, "Look over there." β
The breeze followed the past. It's a city that has always been hostile to Qingfeng City, and the city lord actually came in person.
Yuan Yan said in a low voice, "You say, what is their intention in coming this time? When will our two cities be good enough to go to each other's feast?"
Qingfeng also lowered his voice, "What do you care about their intentions, when have you been so idle?"
Besides, no matter what his intentions are, today my city lord's mansion has heavy troops on his side, and whoever dares to have bad intentions will be killed!"
Yuan Yan looked at Qingfeng in surprise, his eyes flashed with sparkling worship, and his hands clapped his hands lightly in admiration, "Okay, amazing, amazing, my city lord, I admire you!
Qingfeng: "Really, is it amazing, is it okay?"
Yuan Yan: "Of course it's amazing, much more powerful than our old man! Our old man, the more he lives, the more timid he becomes, and he doesn't have any courage." β
Qingfeng: "You, okay, how can you say that about your father?"
Old Man Yuan was calm and thoughtful. β
Yuan Yan smiled, "I know, I know, aren't I just talking about it casually?"
The two of them chatted casually again.
Qingfeng greeted a few city lords who came over later and had a good relationship.
Time's up.
Everyone took their seats.
The lively birthday feast began.
All parties sent congratulatory gifts, including Qingfeng's concubines, who also offered congratulatory gifts.
When the wine was half-drunk, someone suddenly shouted, "My respected Qingfeng City Lord, I came here this time and heard about something.
Rumors are circulating outside that there is an extremely beautiful woman in your house. What's it called, ah, remember, it's calledβJaning.
I don't know if I can be lucky enough to see it today, everyone has a love for beauty. Let everyone see it!
Or, is this Jane Ning girl also at this feast today?"
And when he had finished speaking, he began to wander around the feast, looking for a woman of exceedingly beautiful beauty.
Qingfeng saw this man and knew that this man had been defeated by his men several times.
I dare to say such presumptuous things today, it seems that I drank too much and didn't want to die.
Qingfeng "Jian Ning is not here, she is not feeling well, so she didn't come here." β
The man shouted, "What a disappointment, isn't it just a woman, why is it so expensive!"
Qingfeng was very upset when he heard this, and suddenly slammed the wine glass on the table.
The man was obviously drunk, and when he saw Qingfeng, he was angry, and he actually wanted to stalk his neck and bump Qingfeng back.
When the man's subordinates saw it, they had a bad heart. If you don't stop it, something has to happen!
The man's subordinates pressed the man hard, and apologized to Qingfeng again and again, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, our leader is drunk." I'm sorry, I'm sorry,"
Qingfeng said to the man's subordinates, "If you are drunk, take him back."
It's my birthday today, don't force me to kill. β
As soon as Qingfeng's words fell, everyone felt that they were drenched in cold sweat behind their backs.
The man's subordinates hurriedly saluted, and then called out to the other people who had come with him, and dragged their drunken leader away.
As soon as the men left, the feast became much more harmonious.
No one dared to provoke Qingfeng anymore, and no one dared to mention Jian Ning again. Because no one doesn't take their lives seriously.
This feast was harmonious, but Yuan Fei's heart was extremely discordant, and she was depressed to death.
Finally, someone found fault because of Jian Ning, but it was solved by Brother Qingfeng in three or two clicks.
Yuan Fei didn't even have a chance to watch Jian Ning make a fool of himself.
Yuan Fei was resentful in her heart, what is so good about this Jian Ning? Why does Qingfeng attach so much importance to her?
Jian Ning, who was far away in his yard, sneezed loudly at this time. Who? Who's talking about her?
Xiao Su was concerned: "Girl, are you cold, do you want to add another piece of clothing?"
Jian Ning: "It's okay, it's not cold, it's not cold." β
Janine continued to read her book. After watching it for a while, my stomach was gurgling and hungry.
Jian Ning: "Xiaosu, I'm hungry." Shall we eat?"
Xiao Su: "Okay, girl. β
Xiao Su brought out the meal that Mama Li personally sent over just now in the back kitchen and placed it away.
Jane Ning looked, they were all her favorite foods. Qingfeng is really a heart.
After lunch, Janine continued to read.
It didn't take long to watch this time, and she was sleepy. It's time for her lunch break.
Xiao Su now also knows Jian Ning's routine very well.
Xiao Su: "Girl, where do you want to rest?"
Jian Ning: "It's right here." This quilt is warm and warm. Too lazy to leave. β
Xiao Su served Jian Ning and lay down.
Xiao Su: "I'm here with the girl, right?"
Jain: "No, no. I can do it myself. Go back to your house and rest for a while. β
Xiao Su: "Okay. Thank you, girl!"
Jian Ning: "No thanks. β
After saying that, Jian Ning obediently closed her eyes.
Xiao Su went out and went back to her own house to rest.
can have a big room by herself, you don't have to crowd with other maids, and you can take a lunch break every day, and Miss Jane has a very good temper. I also eat enough every day.
Xiao Su felt that he must have done a lot of good things in his previous life, so he could meet such a good master as Miss Jian in this life.
Her little sisters were all envious of her.
Jian Ning took a nap and slept soundly. Don't be disturbed, and sleep with peace of mind. There was nothing in her dreams that worried or upset her.
Jian Ning felt that her life was too good, too good, too good.
It wasn't until the sun set in the west that Janine woke up.
There was the sound of a broom in the yard, and Jian Ning judged that it should be Xiao Su sweeping the floor.
Xiao Su, this girl, can't see even a little dust in the yard, or even a leaf, she will let her sweep with a broom.
Janine was used to it now. It is indeed much better to have a maid with obsessive-compulsive disorder and cleanliness than to have a sloppy maid!
At least everywhere is very clean.
Janine yawned, stretched, and sat up. Can't sleep anymore. She's got to get up and get busy, too.
On the side of the breeze, the feast finally ended. Then he sent away the immortals from all sides.
Qingfeng sighed, finally idle.
The next series of aftermath matters, Qingfeng was still handed over to Steward Liu to deal with in accordance with the practice of previous years.
Steward Liu is not afraid of these trivial things, he is an all-round butler, and he has already refined eighteen kinds of martial arts.
Qingfeng took his personal servant back to the main house.
Qingfeng was a little tired and he needed to rest.
instructed the little maid to guard the door, and Qingfeng began to sleep.
After a busy day, he kept talking, and he felt his mouth tingle. I don't know how those people who usually like to talk stick to it.
Licking his numb lips, Qingfeng fell asleep as soon as he closed his eyes. Tired and sleeping.
When he woke up, he was surprised to see that it was dark outside.
Qingfeng thought, not knowing what Jian Ning was doing.
"Someone," Chingfeng shouted.
The little guy came in.
Qingfeng: "Go and invite Miss Jane over." β
"Yes, Lord Castle. β
