Riding the Pheonix Chapter 491: Old Old


A spring rain washes the blue sky clean.

Mingwei looked at the sky and saw that it would not rain again, so he told Duofu: "Get the car ready, let's go out."

Duofu agreed and quickly went to prepare.

Hou Liang knew they were going out and came over: "Where are you going, Miss Ming?"

Seeing him like this, Ming Wei felt a little funny: "What, Mr. Hou wants to follow?"

Hou Liang chuckled and said, "I've been back with the girl for a short time. I'm sorry for eating like this every day!"

This is to discuss trouble with her.

Back in the capital, Hou Liang felt a great sense of crisis.

In Gaotang, due to the shortage of manpower, he can be said to be a real confidant. Especially later, when Yang Shu and Mingwei were away and Ah Wan was unable to manage the huge Gao Tang, Hou Liang slowly took hold of some of the power.

It will be different when I return to the capital. There are many old people under Yang Shu, but Mingwei has his own confidants, and the business has already been established, so there is no need to interfere more. So Hou Liang ate like this for half a month, which made him panic.

He knows exactly what he is.

If you don't have enough moral integrity, if you can't put it to sufficient use, you will be thrown away with just one sentence.

Hou Liang has lived for forty years, but there has never been a time when he lived like a master like he did in Gaotang.

He really couldn't let go of this feeling, so he felt even more in danger.

The marriage has been decided, and Miss Ming is the future princess. She has truly become a confidant of the palace, and is more prestigious than those low-level officials.

"Okay, you can follow if you want."

"Hey!"

Hou Liang stole the driver's job and drove the car through Ping'an Street, finally stopping in front of an alley.

Duofu got out of the car and was stunned: "Miss, this is..."

Mingwei said "hmm" and didn't explain anything, just walked inside.

Duofu hurriedly followed in, while Hou Liang went to store the vehicle.

The alley is a bit long. After walking for a while, a slightly noisy sound came to my ears, and Mingwei stopped.

Duofu looked at the courtyard door and asked in a low voice: "Miss, shall I knock on the door?"

Before Mingwei could think about it, the door opened.

The person who opened the door was a young woman, about the same age as her. She only wore a woman's bun on her head. She was beautiful and had a good temperament.

When she saw Master Mingwei, she was stunned for a moment, then asked with a smile: "Is the girl looking for someone?"

"Yes." Mingwei looked at her intently.

The young woman felt a little uncomfortable when she saw her and touched her face: "Girl..."

The cry of a child was heard in the courtyard. When the woman saw that she was silent, she wanted to go back. Unexpectedly, she asked, "Excuse me, is this Ming's House?"

"Yes." The woman stopped turning around and said with a smile, "Young girl, do you know my house? My son is one year old today, do you want to come in for a glass of wine?"

"It's one year old! Okay!" Mingwei said, stepping up the steps.

The woman was about to ask where she came from when her mother-in-law’s voice came to her ears: “Atong, Zheng’er can’t find you to cry for!”

"Hey!" When the woman mentioned her son, she ignored Mingwei and hurried into the house.

Mingwei came face to face with her mother-in-law.

The other party was stunned for a moment, then trembled his lips and shouted: "Xiao Qi?"

Mingwei smiled and bowed to her: "Fourth Aunt."

This woman is the Fourth Madam of Ming Dynasty.

She is a little older than before, and she no longer has the squeamishness of a noble lady, but she is in good spirits, and her face has even lost the original bitterness. She is smiling and very kind and kind.

Mrs. Mingsi was stunned for a while, then turned around and shouted: "Sheng'er, Axiang! Come out quickly!"

She shouted so loudly that people in the room thought something had happened, so they quickly put down what they were doing and left the room.

"Mom, what..."

The second half of Ming Sheng's words was stuck in his throat, and he stared blankly at Ming Wei in front of him.

Mingxiang shouted: "Seventh Sister!" and rushed forward.

Mingwei smiled and caught her.

It has been almost three years. Mingxiang has not grown much. She has only become mature and looks like a big girl.

However, her temper did not change. She hugged Mingwei and cried and laughed, shouting randomly: "Why haven't you come to see us for so long? Are you still angry? Wow, the fourth brother said you can't disturb me. You miss me so much!"

The chaos finally passed, and Mingwei finally entered the house.

There were two banquet tables in the room, and there were not many guests.

Ming Wei met one by one.

On the male guest's side, there are Ming Sheng's brother-in-law and brother-in-law, as well as two friends. The female guests are his wife Liu's two sisters.

Ms. Liu didn't expect that she was the seventh sister Ming Xiang had mentioned. She hurriedly asked her to sit at the ladies' table and apologized: "I didn't know it was the seventh sister. I was rude just now."

"I came too suddenly." Mingwei said, "I have just returned to the capital. I know that Fourth Brother is enjoying the wedding, so I came to take a look."

Mrs. Mingsi smiled and said: "It's great that you can come. Sheng'er and the others miss you."

Mingwei slowly looked around the room.

It can be seen that Mingsi's family is living a good life. Of course, it is not comparable to that in the early years, but compared with ordinary people, it is considered well-off.

Mrs. Ming Si said to her: "In the beginning, your fourth brother worked as a handyman in the shop. Later, when his boss saw that he was diligent and literate, he was promoted to the accounting office. Over the past few years, we have saved a fortune. With the money, I just opened my own shop and sold some pens and ink..."

"Sheng'er sent Xiaojiu to the martial arts school, saying that when he was older, he would join the army." Mrs. Ming's fourth wife sighed, "The two of them have stopped taking the imperial examination, and Xiaojiu refuses to settle down. , there’s nothing we can do about it.”

"Your fourth sister-in-law entered the family the year before last, and this marriage was arranged in the early years~IndoMTL.com~Originally, like our family, we didn't expect the Liu family to fulfill the engagement, but I didn't expect them to dislike it."

Of course Mingwei knows. When she picked up her fourth brother and his family from prison, she sent someone to the Liu family to ensure that the wedding could go ahead as planned.

"Can I see my nephew?" Mingwei asked.

"Of course." Mrs. Mingsi smiled and asked Mrs. Liu to bring her son over.

Mingwei felt a strange feeling when she looked at this child with a tiger-like head and a tough brain.

And he also opened his round eyes and looked at Mingwei curiously.

"He... doesn't look much like Fourth Brother!"..

Mrs. Ming Si smiled and said, "She looks like his mother! Look at her nose and eyes." She then coaxed him, "Zheng'er, call her aunt."

The child heard her talk about aunt and went to see Ming Xiang, which made everyone laugh.

Mrs. Mingsi said to her: "I can understand some of the words, but I don't know how to speak. I'm still too young."

At just one year old, he is already considered smart if he can understand.

Mingwei took out an amulet and hung it on him.

"This is what Xuandu Guan asked for. It was made by the master of the country himself. It will definitely protect him and grow up well."

Ms. Liu was very happy. For a mother, no gift could be more desirable.

Mingwei sat for a while and then left.

On the carriage ride back, Duofu observed his words and said, "Miss, why do you look unhappy?"

Mingwei shook his head: "I'm not unhappy, it's just that... I'm very grateful to see relatives I haven't seen for a long time."

Duofu thought she was talking about Ming Sheng and others, so he said "Oh" and didn't ask any more questions.

Mingwei sighed in his heart.

Master, I hope that this time, you won’t have to suffer the pain of family destruction and displacement.
