Ever since the Xu residence's return banquet, General Zhang has urged Madam Zhang to go to the residence to discuss the marriage of Xu Mingzhu and Zhang Chengyi with Mrs. Zhao.

General Zhang also wanted to take advantage of Zhang Chengyi's marriage to get on board the Duke Dingguo's Mansion.

The Duke of Dingguo's Mansion was entangled with countless relationships: the royal family, the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the in-laws of the two sons of the Duke of Dingguo.

This is a huge network of relationships, and the Zhang family also wants to be involved in it.

Mrs. Zhang naturally understood the reason and happily went to Zhao's house. However, Zhao started to play Tai Chi with her, laughing and joking every time she went there, and never answered her directly.

Mrs. Zhang was so angry that she came back and cursed: "Shameless villain, you are turning your back on me again."

She didn't get the reason, so she told Zhang Chengyi to find Xu Mingzhu.

She thought that if Xu Mingzhu insisted on getting married, the Xu family would have no choice.

If it really doesn't work, let Zhang Chengyi find out the facts, and she agreed.

Xu Mingzhu saw Zhang Chengyi in the teahouse and burst into tears.

In order to meet Zhang Chengyi, Xu Mingzhu dressed herself up like a resentful woman.

She changed her clothes into plain colors and wore no jewelry. She only wore a hairpin on her head. She sat opposite Zhang Chengyi with a pale face and no blood.

"Brother Chengyi, you know I have admired you since childhood. Being able to become your wife and accompany you for the rest of your life is my greatest wish."

After saying this, Xu Mingzhu's eyes turned red.

"But now the rumors are spreading that I ruined your marriage and made you bear the stigma of divorce and betrayal. I feel so sorry for Brother Chengyi."

"Besides, Xu Miao just married into the Duke of Dingguo's Mansion, and I'm marrying into the General's Mansion so soon. This will not be good for the reputation of the General's Mansion."

"General Zhang and Brother Chengyi are both people who do important things in the court. Mingzhu doesn't want to implicate you because of this matter."

"I want to wait for a while. When the weather warms up and the flowers bloom next spring, people will have forgotten about this matter. Can we get married then?"

After saying this, Xu Mingzhu continued to cry.

"If love lasts forever, it doesn't matter if we're together day and night. Brother Chengyi, for the sake of our long-lasting relationship, let's wait a while before talking about marriage."

Under Xu Mingzhu's tearful attack, Zhang Chengyi returned to the general's mansion in a daze.

Zhang Chengyi repeated to General Zhang and his wife what Xu Mingzhu had said to him.

General Zhang: "Have you promised Xu Mingzhu?"

Zhang Chengyi nodded with tears in his eyes: "I agree."

General Zhang slammed the table in anger, "What the hell are you thinking? You can't even tell a lie like that? If I really wanted to marry you, I would have done it long ago. Why would I wait for spring to come? Pah!"

Zhang Chengyi replied stubbornly: "Mingzhu never lies to me."

If Xu Miao knew about this situation, he would definitely tell General Zhang.

This is called love brain, there is no cure.

Zhang Ruyi was so angry that she jumped up and down and cursed.

Before the Zhang family divorced his wife, Xu Mingzhu would go shopping and have tea with Zhang Ruyi whenever she had nothing to do.

As long as Zhang Ruyi liked something, Xu Mingzhu would immediately offer it to her without hesitation. Even the luxurious dress from Jinxiu Pavilion, Xu Mingzhu gritted her teeth and said she would give it to her.

A few days after Zhang divorced his wife, Xu Mingzhu began to change.

She neither went out to accompany her shopping nor to drink tea with her. She sent a maid to send messages to Xu Mingzhu several times to ask her out, but Xu Mingzhu always found excuses to refuse.

Later, Zhang Ruyi heard about Xu Miao's return banquet and discussed it with Madam Zhang. She then realized that Xu Mingzhu's family no longer looked down on the general's mansion and wanted to climb up the social ladder.

This incident made Zhang Ruyi very angry: Xu Mingzhu's family is shameless villains, what do they think of her, Zhang Ruyi, and their general's mansion?

When Zhang Ruyi met Xu Mingzhu at the banquet, she chased after her and insisted on asking her clearly, which led to a quarrel between the two.

Zhang Ruyi was naturally no match for Xu Mingzhu. Xu Mingzhu said nothing in front of others and just kept crying in grievance.

Zhang Ruyi was so angry that she cursed Xu Mingzhu: You are a snob, you are a opportunist, and your whole family are shameless.

Mrs. Zhang did not try to stop Zhang Ruyi, but watched her scolding with a sense of relief. Zhao was so anxious that she was spinning around in circles, not knowing what to do.

The ladies were so dazzled by the sight that there was no point in eating melons at the banquet.

If there were fights at every banquet, their lives would not be very fulfilling.

After hearing this, Xu Miao laughed out loud. Only Xu Jingyi's family could do such a thing.

After Xu Mingzhu finished eating the melon, Xu Miao started to worry about Zhou Jiyuan's meal.

Zhou Jiyuan's health has not only improved recently, but his bad habits have also begun to recover.

What bothered Xu Miao the most was that he didn't eat properly. After a meal, he would only eat the meat, and would not eat a single bite of the vegetables no matter how fancy you made them into flowers.

It is also called a carnivore.

Xu Miao: I think you are not very hungry.

Xu Miao grew up in the backyard of the Xu Mansion, and he was happy as long as he could eat three simple meals a day.

My half brother Xiaoman and half sister Xu Zhier didn't even know what chestnut cake was since they were little. Whenever they got a piece of candy during festivals, they were reluctant to put it in their mouths all at once. Instead, they licked it bit by bit, hoping that the sweetness would last longer.

Zhou Jiyuan had been well-fed and well-clothed since he was a child, with a group of people surrounding him in the mansion, so he had no idea what it felt like to be hungry.

After a few days, Xu Miao really couldn't think of a solution, so he had to use his ultimate move.

Sun Wukong makes arrangements!

Which teenager can resist Sun Wukong? Sun Wukong is a mysterious figure who has been admired by generations since his birth.

Besides, don’t monkeys love eating fruits and vegetables? If you want to become as majestic as Sun Wukong, you have to eat vegetables first.

Xu Miao arranged a bedtime story every night: Sun Wukong defeats the White Bone Demon three times, and the Monkey King makes trouble in the Heavenly Palace.

After hearing this, Zhou Jiyuan cried out for food the next day and vowed to fight monsters when he grew up.

That night, Zhou Chenli returned to the backyard, but before he even entered, the maid guarding the gate told him, "Duke, the mistress is still in the young master's backyard and hasn't come back yet."

Zhou Chenli looked up at the sky. It’s already so late and he hasn’t come back yet?

Just when he was thinking about going to Zhou Jiyuan's yard to pick up his wife, he saw his wife leading a group of maids and old women walking towards him laughing from a distance.

The maids and old women hurriedly bowed and greeted Zhou Chenli when they saw him.

The Duke's wife walked forward, took Zhou Chenli's arm, and asked Zhou Chenli mysteriously, "Duke, do you know what a spider spirit is?"

Zhou Chenli was confused: "What is a spider spirit? I've never heard of it."

The lady took Zhou Chenli's arm and explained, "Master, a spider spirit is a woman transformed from a spider after cultivation. She has to be an extremely beautiful woman who can spit out silk from her mouth."

"That thread can be spit out very long and can kill people."

Zhou Chenli glared at his wife. "What the hell is this? What have you been doing in the mansion lately? Where did you hear this nonsense?"

The Duke's wife rolled her eyes at the Duke. "Master, you're just too ignorant to know what a spider spirit is. So, do you know what a fox spirit is?"

The Duke nodded vigorously: "I know about vixens!"

The Duke's wife's eyes were filled with admiration: "Master, you are amazing. You even know about vixens!"

The Duke and his wife hurried into the house and executed him on the spot.

You are what a vixen looks like, I know it best.

Leaving a group of maids outside the door, the old woman blushed with laughter.
