My husband is pure and has few desires, but I gave birth to three children in a row
Chapter 291 Why did you hide such a big thing from me?
The eldest master Fu Heming had not yet come to his senses at this moment. He instinctively sent the eunuch out, and of course he did not forget to give red envelopes to those who were traveling with him.
Only after seeing everyone go far away did he return to the main hall in a daze.
Everyone hadn't left yet, and they were all staring at the imperial edict in Lu Zhenzhen's hand in confusion.
As everyone knows, the current emperor is very stingy with titles.
The most typical example is the son-in-law of the Marquis's Mansion, the King of Shu, who is a prince. According to previous rules, the crown prince inherits the title of prince, and the other sons are demoted to the title of county prince. The sons of county princes are further demoted to inherit the title of Duke of Zhenguo.
However, the second son of the King of Shu was only given the title of Duke of Zhenguo, which was a direct demotion of two ranks.
Not to mention other members of the royal family.
This is the first time that the current emperor has bestowed a title on the wife and daughter of a minister.
How not to be surprising?
The old marquis was holding the imperial edict, carefully examining the words. It took him a long time to figure out the reason why Lu Zhenzhen was conferred the title of village lord.
Suddenly, a pair of sharp eyes swept towards Fu Zhiyi and Lu Zhenzhen like an eagle. He wanted to ask, but after looking at the family gathered around, he paused and said, "Alright, Boss, take this imperial edict to the ancestral hall and enshrine it."
"Brother Yi's daughter-in-law has been named the village head. This is a great joyous event. Spread my word and everyone in the mansion will receive an extra month's salary!"
As soon as these words were spoken, all the servants present expressed their gratitude and words of gratitude could be heard everywhere.
Although everyone was still a little confused, since the old marquis had given the order, no matter what they thought in their hearts, everyone smiled happily.
Especially Qin pulled Lan and kept congratulating her: "Third sister-in-law, you finally got a wife!"
Even Jin came over and said a few compliments.
Lan accepted everything with a smile, without any hesitation.
Looking at Qin and Jin, I felt both envious and a little jealous.
Looking at Lu Zhenzhen who was still standing there in a daze, he could not imagine how this granddaughter-in-law with the worst family background could have caught the emperor's eye and become the village chief?
After this, apart from the old lady and the first wife, Lu Zhenzhen had the highest rank in the family.
This made Qin feel uncomfortable.
Mrs. Hu and Mrs. Sun didn't think too much about it at the moment and came up happily to congratulate them.
Even Fu Zhiming and the Zhao couple, no matter how envious and jealous they were in their hearts, still kept smiling.
Only the third master Fu Heyin felt like the sky was falling!
Oh my god! Even when Lu Zhenzhen, the daughter-in-law, was not a rank, she was already very difficult to mess with.
Now that he has been conferred the title of village chief, his rank is higher than mine. Wouldn’t it be more justified for him to deal with me in the future?
Also, here the daughter-in-law has become the village chief, but the mother-in-law is still just a maid.
The Lan family disliked me in the first place, would they take their anger out on me?
I’m afraid the days ahead will be more bitter than coptis chinensis!
Fu Heyin was smart enough when he was not doing anything stupid. He glanced at Fu Zhiyi, who was standing next to his daughter-in-law with a look of pride and embarrassment on his face, and knew that Lu Zhenzhen's appointment as the village chief this time was closely related to his son. It was also possible that his terrible brother-in-law had a hand in it.
Suddenly, a sense of sadness arose. What was that called? After being away for half his life, he returned to find that he was the one with the lowest status in the family. No one could afford to offend him!
The family was still having a lively time in the main hall when a servant came in to report that the neighbors next door had heard that the granddaughter-in-law of the Ningping Marquis had been conferred the title of village leader, and had come to the house with gifts to congratulate them.
The old marquis had no choice but to suppress his worries and ordered his three sons and four grandsons to get up and go deal with the guests.
The old lady also hurriedly told Qin and her daughter-in-law that such a big happy event had happened in the family and everyone knew about it, and they would probably come to congratulate them.
The Ningping Marquis's Mansion cannot be stingy and must hold a banquet to celebrate properly.
Qin and Sun knew that this was the right thing to do and quickly agreed.
Jin hesitated for a moment, thinking that as the Crown Prince's wife, it would be inappropriate for her not to show up for such a big event.
But after thinking about it, health is more important! If she has an accident, what will happen to her son?
Therefore, he could only smile apologetically at Qin and Sun: "Then I'll have to trouble my younger sister-in-law and the second son's wife!"
Next, everyone took up their respective duties and got busy.
Only Lu Zhenzhen and Lan have the most free time.
Qin, who was really angry, dragged Lan to help.
Lan was happy in her heart. Since her daughter-in-law was so promising, the banquet must not go wrong, and she had to help take care of it.
So he just followed Qin.
The old lady happily took Lu Zhenzhen, her most proud granddaughter-in-law, to open her private storehouse to look for good things.
The old marquis was left alone, sitting there in deep thought for a while before returning to the courtyard where he usually cultivated his character.
By the way, ask someone to call Fu Zhiyi over.
When Fu Zhiyi arrived, the old marquis was arranging chess records in the room.
The black and white chess pieces were entangled, and a large area of black pieces were surrounded by white pieces. It seemed that they were about to lose.
Fu Zhiyi walked in and greeted the old marquis. The old marquis waved his hand, motioning him to sit down. "Can you help Heizi with this endgame?"
Fu Zhiyi looked at the chessboard for a moment and placed a piece outside the black pieces.
The old marquis's eyes narrowed. After this move was made, the white piece was trapped.
The grandfather and grandson didn't say anything. After each of them made a few moves in silence, the chess game changed dramatically.
The black pieces came back to life, but the white pieces were running out of stamina.
The old marquis stared at the chessboard for a long time, then laughed and casually threw the chess piece in his hand into the chess box: "What a good move! Besiege Wei to save Zhao! You win this game."
Fu Zhiyi smiled and put down the chess piece in his hand: "Grandfather, did you ask me to come here?"
Seeing Fu Zhiyi still feigning innocence, the old marquis sneered, "Why are you still pretending? Tell me, what exactly is this so-called new accounting method?"
The matter has been settled, so Fu Zhiyi naturally no longer needs to hide anything and tells the whole situation very frankly.
After listening to Fu Zhiyi's explanation silently, the old marquis slammed the table, overturning the chessboard on the table to the ground, and the chess pieces scattered all over the floor.
"Why did you hide such a big thing from me? What a great achievement is this? If it was presented by our Ningping Marquis Mansion, how many benefits and opportunities could this achievement bring to the Marquis Mansion? Don't you have any idea at all?" The old marquis asked angrily, pointing at Fu Zhiyi's nose.
Fu Zhiyi sat quietly aside, remaining as steady as a rock even when the old marquis lost his temper.
Even though the old marquis pointed his nose at him, he didn't even blink, and said calmly: "Grandson naturally knows what's going on! That's why I did this!"
The old marquis was so angry that he trembled: "You, what do you mean?"
Fu Zhiyi chuckled, "My grandson's point is, if the Marquis' Mansion reports such a great achievement, who will benefit in the end? Will it be my uncle? Or my elder brother? It can't be me or Zhenzhen, right?"
