Chapter Fifty-Six: The Banquet of the Concubine
On the other side, Xiao Yanxue snorted softly, extremely dissatisfied with her grandfather's cautiousness when she mentioned the notorious gentleman. If there is anything to praise about that gentleman, it is to have a good grandmother, a good mother, how can there be a real person in the family?
Xiao Fenghan smiled, twisted Xiao Yanxue's nose, and said, "Don't be unconvinced, girl, don't forget, you are still a bet between our two families, hahaha......"
With a blushing face, Xiao Yanxue said shy and angry: "Grandpa, you are the most old-fashioned, and the grandmother of the Ling family is an admirable heroine, but her old man has greatly mistaken her precious grandson and also looked down on me! Hmph, I can assure you that our Xiao family will never lose this gamble." You can wait to receive half of the Ling family's property with peace of mind, this is worth paying attention to!"
Xiao Fenghan laughed.
Everyone hugged their fists and saluted him, Xiao Fengyang gave an order, brushed, and a hundred people got on the horse at the same time, and the front hooves of the healthy horse stood up, sighing and neighing, and running out with hooves!
Chengtian! My Xiao family, here! The wind and rain in all directions will inherit the sky, without our Xiao family, how can it be!
Just when the forces of all parties in the entire continent were in full swing to dispatch troops, the Chengtian Ling family, who was in the center of the whirlpool, was holding a reception banquet for Mr. Qin Da in a big way.
At the banquet, Old Man Ling still hated iron and steel, first reprimanded Ling Tian, and then complained to Mr. Qin Da with a long sigh, saying how stubborn Ling Tian has been in the past few years, how he is not angry, etc., etc., and finally asked Mr. Qin Da, as the only teacher that Ling Tian can accept now, must be sure, to strengthen the discipline of Ling Tian, to make Ling Tian change his ways, the prodigal son to turn back, let him beat and scold, as long as he is alive......
In the process of the old man's lecture, Ling Tian lowered his head and did not dare to make a sound, and Mrs. Chu Ting, as a parent, was even more ashamed, bowed her head deeply, and almost had no face to eat; And Ling Xiao on the side repeatedly agreed, and originally wanted to add more weight to the blow, but Mrs. Chu Ting's "sharp" eyes made the Chengtian Army God Lima shut up, no way, this is the Ling family's consistent genetics......
Mr. Qin Da's expression was strange, he wanted to laugh, but he didn't dare to laugh, and I still taught him? Don't make trouble, ten years ago, I couldn't educate your grandson, and it was almost the same if he came to teach and instruct me! With a mouthful of wine in his mouth, his face was flushed, but he didn't dare to swallow it, lest he would choke out and make a big ugly appearance after swallowing.
Old Madam Ling, the only one who knew the inside story, looked at the sky with white eyes, and occasionally leaned towards Old Man Ling's eyes, which were angry and funny, and saw that the old man was really endless, and finally couldn't help but burst out: "Dead old man, are you finished? What are you nagging about having a meal? No one says about you, are you getting more and more energetic? This is a reception banquet for Mr. Qin! Shut up and eat!"
Old Man Ling was dumbfounded for a moment, picked up the wine glass stupidly, drank it all, and suddenly put a door on his mouth, and didn't say a word.
After the meal, Mr. Qin followed Ling Tian to the small courtyard with a serious face, with the intention of teaching this uncompetitive disciple a good lesson, rubbing his fists, blowing his beard and glaring. Old Man Ling was very relieved to see it, and walked back to his study with his hands behind his back, waiting for Mr. Qin's good news.
As soon as he entered the small courtyard, Mr. Qin Da finally couldn't help laughing, his white beard trembled, his old face smiled like a blooming chrysanthemum, and his previous dignified appearance was gone: "My eldest son Ling, you are really deep enough to hide, the old man really regrets not staying here in the past three years, and missed so many good shows!"
Ling Tian laughed: "Sir, don't be a pity, as long as your old man is here, the next scenes will become more and more beautiful." He smiled faintly, with a look of urgency on his face, and said: "Charging head-on, how can I have the pleasure of dying with the yin behind my back? Let the enemy die and I don't know who the opponent is, so depressed that we vomit blood, how refreshing will we be? Ling Tian shook his head and said with his eyebrows twisted.
"Hahaha......" Mr. Qin Da felt that he had not laughed much in the past three years combined, and suddenly remembered something, "By the way, you haven't dealt with it yet?"
Ling Tian grinned: "The Ling Kong father and son have already fallen into the mud unconsciously, their lives have long been in my backhand, and they can be silent at any time, it turns out that there is only one opportunity, and now it is just right, just wait for this period of Nangong family and the Yang family's two tigers to fight, it is time for the Ling family to clean up!"
Mr. Qin Da shuddered, of course he understood what Ling Tian meant by 'the Ling family is clean', it is estimated that at least a thousand people will pay the price for Ling Tian's "clean" plan! And this price is life.
In Mr. Qin's impression, Ling Tian is a good person and a good disciple, but this good person has a limit, that is, as long as you don't really provoke him, then you will never be fine, because Ling Tian is very generous, but if he touches his bottom line, Ling Tian will turn his face twice as fast as turning a book, and the ruthless and cruel side that will be revealed in an instant will be beyond anyone's imagination!
Ling Tian's forbearance has two aspects, one is forbearance, and the other is cruel forbearance! Mr. Qin Da has a deep understanding of these two points!
Let's say that Ling Tian personally arranged to settle Mr. Qin, but when he came back, he was surprised not to see the two little beauties of Ling Chen and Yu Bingyan, and after asking, he learned that his mother Chu Ting sent someone to call the two girls over to talk. Ling Tian wondered, wondering what the hell his mother was thinking? Since the Ling family's business was deliberately arranged by Mrs. Ling for Chu Ting to take over, Ling Tian felt that his mother was becoming more and more difficult to deal with, and he used to think that his mother was the standard good wife and mother, but after a period of in-depth understanding, he found that it was not so much at all, it seems that the women of the Ling family are quite strong, especially after contacting the family business, Mrs. Chu Ting is even more energetic, fully showing her extraordinary talent, coupled with the continuous support of Mrs. Ling behind her, Chu Ting'er is now Ling Tian's point of view, and she is also a standard career-oriented strong woman。
An interesting cycle has been formed in the Ling family, in the previous life experience in Ling Tian's head, there are endless ideas for doing business and watching people do business, the so-called never eaten pork has also seen pigs walk, casually throw a few ideas to Mrs. Ling, every time it will cause Mrs. Ling's amazement, it will be regarded as a treasure. And these ideas were polished by Old Madam Ling and passed on to Mrs. Chu Ting, and Chu Ting was not ambiguous, not just taking medicine according to the prescription, and then changing and applying it, and soon turned into a steady stream of silver flowing into the Ling family.
However, Old Madam Ling was still limited to knowing that these ideas were made by Ling Tian's "pedantic celestial" master, while Madam Chu Ting had always thought that it was the wise mother-in-law who came up with them, so Ling Tian was still deeply hidden behind the scenes until now. But Ling Tian also felt that the two elderly and middle-aged women in his family were becoming more and more difficult to deal with, after all, his mother didn't know the truth, it was better, Mrs. Ling often looked at Ling Tian with an inquiring gaze, and it was a good time to look at it, and Ling Tian's heart jumped a little frightened, you said that it is not normal for grandma to look at her grandson?
Finally, Ling Chen and Yu Bingyan returned late, Ling Tian had already fallen asleep, seeing that the two girls had strange expressions on their faces, Ling Tian woke up in horror, not knowing what his mother had done to make the two little women's faces so strange.
"Childe, the invitation of the concubine Niangniang was sent to the mansion, and she was going to hold a banquet in Mingyanlou to invite the ladies of the various mansions in the capital, and the lady had agreed to attend, and prepared some gifts for the concubine Niangniang and the ladies of the various mansions. Ling Chen's face was full of a narrow smile, and he said in a strange voice, obviously guessing Chu Ting's intentions.
"Ah, didn't my mother swear never to attend the gathering of that group of noble ladies again since that year's meeting?" Ling Tian asked differently.
Mrs. Chu Ting is the wife of the God of War of Chengtian, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she is the head of Mrs. Chengtiangui, why is she unwilling to get together with other ladies or something, is it a big shelf? No, Mrs. Chu Ting is virtuous and virtuous, with a gentle surname, and naturally she is not a person who likes to put on a show, but who makes her have a son who is the first to Chengtian, and her son's family affairs have not yet been settled, Mrs. Chu Ting is really worried about her son's lifelong event, so she cheekily sells her son to the sisters in the city, who knows Ling Tian's "virtue" , the result can be imagined!
Everywhere Mrs. Chu Ting went, Mrs. Lima, who had enough qualifications, dodged, and those flies who tried to climb the high branches had the heart to offer their daughters, but Mrs. Chu Ting was unwilling! Under the condition that the high could not be low, Mrs. Chu Ting finally made up her mind not to participate in those gatherings again, so as not to be looked down upon for no reason. Moreover, the Ling family has its own important things that need to be bothered by the lady, but they don't have so much effort to do these idle things.
"My aunt called me over and asked a lot about Sister Wei, and I heard that Aunt Wei would be there tomorrow. There was something wrong with Yu Bingyan's voice, and it seemed to be a little strange.
