My husband is pure and has few desires, but I gave birth to three children in a row

The attendant who was serving nearby was trembling with fear and was trying to persuade Minister Lan to hide.

Minister Lan slowly put down his teacup and began to handle official business, not showing any sign of urgency.

He even took a break from his busy schedule to comfort his long-servant: "Don't worry, Ning Pinghou won't rush into the Ministry of Revenue and beat up your master!"

"Why?" The long-servant was puzzled.

Before Minister Lan could explain, a minor official came in and told him that the Marquis of Ningping had left.

The attendant looked at Minister Lan and said, "Master, you are a prophet!"

Minister Lan scoffed. "What do you mean by prophetic? It's just that I know that old fox is very shrewd. Do you think he's really angry?"

The attendant asked curiously, "Is the old marquis not angry?"

Minister Lan was in high spirits, and rarely had the leisure to speak to his attendant. "Of course I'm angry, but I'm not so foolish as to brazenly storm into the Ministry of Revenue to settle accounts with me. I just knew what the higher-ups were doing, and I'm just playing along, putting on a show for them."

The attendant didn't quite understand, but didn't dare to ask any more questions.

Minister Lan waved his hand to signal him to leave, put down the pen in his hand, and twitched the corner of his mouth. As for what happened today, although the emperor, his ministers and the other three parties did not say it out loud, they all knew it in their hearts.

They just cooperated with each other to perform a play.

The emperor was testing him, and he took the opportunity to express his stance and vent his anger on Ning Pinghou.

Ning Pinghou was probably confused at first, but he should have come to his senses now.

So I took this opportunity to make a big fuss at the Ministry of Revenue.

Although the two families were still in-laws, a rift had arisen between them in the eyes of outsiders.

This also prevents the two families from appearing to be deeply involved and causing dissatisfaction among the emperor.

Minister Lan put down his pen and rubbed his forehead.

From what happened today, it can be seen that the emperor is a little dissatisfied with the nobles, but for now he is just warning them and has no intention of cleaning up.

This is also good, allowing the old fox Ning Pinghou to hold on for a few more years.

My nephew can also rely on the power of the Ningping Marquis' Mansion to recuperate and have someone to back him up when he does things.

When Ning Pinghou became too old to support himself, he split up the family and set up his own household.

In the future, even if the Ningping Marquis' Mansion attracts the emperor's attention, there is no need to worry.

Minister Lan couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth and praised himself in his heart. Look, it depends on myself to consider the future of the child.

Not to mention that bastard Fu Heyin, even with Ning Pinghou's health, if something really happened to his nephew, he couldn't rely on him.

As an uncle, I really owed them and their mother a lot in my previous life. I have to take care of my sister and now I have to take care of my nephew.

The more I think about it, the angrier I get!

No, his uncle is working so hard for him and making plans for him.

That brat Fu Zhiyi is always thinking about snatching the cabbage he just brought home!

We need to find something for this kid to do!

Yes, I'll force him to study hard when he gets home! He'll have to write three essays a day, and if he doesn't do well, he'll have to write three more. Let's see if he still has the energy and time to coax his wife!

Minister Lan had made up his mind and planned to go to the Hanlin Academy to find someone to get a month's worth of topics for Fu Zhiyi after he finished his official business.

At this moment, Fu Zhiyi is at the Lan family.

He sneezed expressionlessly.

He looked up and down, left and right with an expressionless face.

Wasn’t it agreed that the couple would meet and talk every day?

Sitting here is my grandmother, Lanmu.

Sitting on the left are my aunt and mother.

On the right are three cousins-in-law.

There are also several cousins ​​surrounding her.

With so many wolves watching him closely, what could he say to his wife? What could he say?

Lu Zhenzhen looked at Fu Zhiyi's eyes, which were filled with a bit of resentment.

It's not her fault that she wants to laugh, right?

Although she also felt that Fu Zhiyi and she were already husband and wife, why bother with all these things?

But after all, it was out of the deep love of her adoptive parents, and they were thinking about her and doing it for her own good.

Naturally, I can't refuse.

Fu Zhiyi can only work hard and be patient for a few more days.

However, looking at Fu Zhiyi's expression, Lu Zhenzhen couldn't help but soften her heart.

To comfort Fu Zhiyi, "Don't worry, Fourth Master. My adoptive father and mother treat me very well. I feel very comfortable living in Dongfeng Pavilion, just like at home. My adoptive mother was afraid that I would be bored, so she sent me the mynah bird she has raised for a long time to cheer me up. My sisters-in-law and nieces also come to talk to me when they have time. I feel more comfortable every day than at home!"

Fu Zhiyi's expression softened a little. Although he knew that his uncle and aunt would not treat Lu Zhenzhen badly, he was still worried about her.

Seeing that Fu Zhiyi's expression had eased a little, Lu Zhenzhen continued, "From now on, I will stay by my stepmother's side and learn some etiquette and principles. I will also often accompany my stepmother and the wife to meet guests. Fourth Master, don't worry about me. Take advantage of these few days to consult with my stepfather and accompany him."

As he said this, he winked at Fu Zhiyi behind his back.

Fu Zhiyi's mind moved, and he recalled Lu Zhenzhen's words just now, "Ask your adoptive father for advice and accompany him," and his tone became slightly heavier.

My mind suddenly changed and I understood immediately.

He nodded immediately and said, "You're absolutely right! My wife and I have been grateful for the care of my grandparents, uncle, and aunt over the years. Now, we have to trouble our eldest uncle and aunt with our affairs."

After saying this, she bowed deeply to Lan's mother, who was sitting in the upper seat. "It's shameful to say that we have been cared for by our elders for many years, but we have nothing to repay them for! Uncle and aunt treat Zhenzhen and me like their own children. From now on, Zhenzhen and I will definitely respect them as if they were our own parents!"

Seeing that Fu Zhiyi was so understanding, Lu Zhenzhen not only understood what she meant, but also took the opportunity to make some use of it.

He immediately gave Fu Zhiyi a look of approval.

Lan's mother and Mrs. Lan nodded with satisfaction.

Mother Lan beckoned Fu Zhiyi and Lu Zhenzhen to come over to her side, and she grabbed their hands. "Good children, it's enough that you understand the painstaking efforts of our elders! We are all family members, and if we don't love you, who else can we love? As long as you are doing well in the future, we will be happy!"

Then he pushed the two of them in front of Mrs. Lan and said, "From now on, just remember to respect your uncle and aunt more."

Mrs. Lan was such a shrewd and capable person that she noticed the eye contact between the young couple.

She was also satisfied in her heart. This adopted daughter was worthy of recognition. She was clear-headed and not petty. Especially, she could always remind her husband of some negligence.

For example, Fu Zhiyi before, she and her husband really treated him as our youngest son, but his personality was really cold.

Even though I, as an elder, don't care, I feel very relieved to hear this child thanking me in person and expressing gratitude for the efforts of me and my husband.

All the efforts over the years have finally paid off, and have been seen and remembered by others.
