A car accident, our family of three crossed

Chapter 748: Going to the Zhenguo Mansion for a Banquet

The two sisters held hands and went to Zhou Yan's yard. When they arrived at the room where the charcoal basin was burning, Zhou Yan felt warm immediately and began to want to argue with Zhou Rong.

"Don't pretend to be nice in front of me. I went to my mother to ask for your dowry, but you didn't appreciate it, and you even accused me of being ignorant."

Zhou Rong stuffed a hot water bottle into Zhou Yan's hand, then admitted her mistake with a smile: "Okay, okay, I was wrong, okay? You think so much about me, I'm really touched, thank you, my dear sister Yan'er."

Seeing her attitude, Zhou Yan's tone softened a bit, "Stop being sentimental. Who is willing to think about you? There will never be a next time. Humph! A dog bites Lu Dongbin, and he doesn't know a good heart."

Song Ning didn't care about the affairs of Cheng'en Marquis' Mansion at all. Right now, she had something more worthy of her concern.

As Chu Fang mentioned before, the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion intended to invite their family to come over to get acquainted and have a home-cooked meal.

The specific date was set a few days ago, and tomorrow their family will go to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion for a banquet.

After all, the two families have very different family backgrounds, and the closer the day of the banquet gets, the more nervous Song Ning becomes.

Although I have heard Chu Fang talk a lot about his family, what kind of people are in his family, what kind of personalities they have, etc.

But after all, I have never met him in person, and I cannot fully understand a person's temperament just through Chu Fang's description, not to mention that the Chu family is so large and has so many family members.

Hang Shuheng had seen Song Ning's behavior over the past few days, so he teased her, "It's not the first time for the ugly daughter-in-law to meet her parents-in-law. What are you so nervous about?"

"Go away, what kind of metaphor is that?"

What is the ugly daughter-in-law meeting her parents-in-law for the first time? Is there such a metaphor for your daughter-in-law meeting her friend's elders?

Hang Shuheng smiled awkwardly: "Haha, I'm just borrowing this metaphor."

"I can't even borrow it."

"Okay, okay, whatever you say is what it is. Then can you tell me what you are so nervous about? Isn't it just going to a friend's house to get to know his family and have a meal? It's such a normal and ordinary thing, why should you be so nervous?"

"Oh! I don't know. I can't control it!"

In fact, Song Ning herself couldn't explain why she was nervous. It was not like she had never experienced getting along with elders who were older than them.

Since she arrived, how many elders has she come into contact with? She can handle interpersonal relationships with everyone very well, so why did she suddenly become timid when she arrived in Beijing?

If it was because of the disparity in family background, that was not possible. In her previous life, Hang Shuheng's family background was still out of reach for her even after she returned successfully in her career. But she had never been nervous when getting along with his elders!

"Why don't you just treat them as ordinary elders?" Hang Shuheng said, "Just like Uncle Zhou, or the old clan leader, grandma, and uncle head of the village, you can treat the people in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion as the people of Shangtang Village."

Song Ning couldn't help but laugh when he heard this: "You're so smart! That's the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion! How can it be the same as the folks in Shangtang Village?"

"How is it different? No one has an extra eye or mouth than anyone else."

"Why are you speaking so lamely today? Is that what I meant?"

"What do you mean?" Hang Shuheng paused, then said with a look of sudden enlightenment, "Oh... I see, you are discriminating based on status."

Song Ning suddenly laughed out of anger and stood up to cover his mouth.

"Just shut up, that's not what I meant."

Hang Shuheng sat on the recliner, shaking his head left and right to avoid her attacks.

It was a rare day that it didn't snow. The couple were sitting in the yard around the stove making tea. Their laughter easily attracted the attention of the servants in the mansion.

Qingshuang, Uncle Chai Wushu and others were no longer surprised by this. However, the other servants in the mansion had never seen their masters behave in this way. They did not dare to look directly at them, but could not help but sneak a peek from time to time.

The relationship between the young master and the lady is really good!

This may be the sentence that comes to mind of all the servants at this moment.

Especially the girls, each of them blushed, and they loved to see the sweet look of the young man and his lady.

After this burst of laughter, Song Ning's nervousness was dispelled a lot.

Hang Shuheng smiled and asked, "Are you not nervous anymore?"

Song Ning finally understood why he had deliberately teased her like that just now. She rolled her eyes at him unhappily and pinched his waist hard. However, he was wearing thick winter clothes, so the pinch didn't hurt him through the thick clothes.

With such repeated nervousness and anxiety, the next day finally arrived.

In order to show its importance, the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion asked Chu Fang to come in person early in the morning.

The family of three was packing up gifts to give to people when they arrived at the Duke's Mansion and were getting ready to go out. When they saw Chu Fang coming, they were a little surprised.

"Why did you come here in person?"

"I just happened to have nothing to do, so I came to pick you up." Chu Fang pointed outside, "I've driven a carriage here, get in my carriage!"

"I'm afraid there won't be enough space!" Song Ning said, pointing at the things they had packed and asking him to look.

"So many?" Chu Fang held his forehead with his hand.

"Yeah! I didn't expect that, while I was preparing, this is all."

After saying this, the group of people loaded their things, big and small, onto the carriage.

Chu Fang looked at the things that could hardly fit into the carriage he had rushed here, and felt a little amused.

In order not to attract attention, he had deliberately got a relatively ordinary horse-drawn carriage, but now it has become a carriage for transporting goods.

Finally, the group boarded the Hang family's carriage and set off for the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.

From the west to the south of the city, it is not far, and there are quite a few streets and alleys. Chu Fang specifically told the driver to take a secluded path so as not to attract attention and to take a shortcut.

Before long, they arrived at the south of the city. The carriage still did not take the main street, but went around in circles and soon arrived at the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.

The man did not get off the carriage, but entered the mansion directly through the side door, and both the man and the carriage entered the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion together.

In the Zhenguo Mansion, everyone, from the old Duke and his wife to the youngest boys, stayed in the mansion today and did not go out.

At this moment, the whole family gathered in the main hall of the main courtyard, looking eagerly at the moon gate in the outer courtyard.

Except for a few people who knew about it, everyone else was extremely curious about the origins of this legendary distinguished guest who could mobilize all the masters of the Duke's Mansion.

Judging from the reactions of the elders, the guests who are to be entertained in the mansion must be extremely important. The younger generations dare not ask any questions in front of their elders. They just wait. After all, they will know when the guests arrive.
