After Rebirth, I Married the Young Duke Who Died Early

Her husband left for the frontier, and Rong Linlang diligently served her in-laws for five years. In the end, her husband faked his death to become a son-in-law in a powerful family, while her in-l...

Chapter 121 Reborn

Su Nanting didn't expect Xiao Zhensheng to be so generous. He didn't mind at all that his son would marry into the woman's family and the child would take the woman's surname. Look at the worthless smile on his face.

Xiao Zhensheng added, "Amu's family has no one left. As long as there is a child with his surname, it will be enough to carry on the family line."

A Mu assumed the identity of Xiao Yushu. Xiao Yushu's parents were both dead, and he had no brothers or sisters. Most of his relatives were distant relatives and they no longer had any contact with each other. Leaving a descendant for his family was a normal request.

Xiao Zhensheng said this with two meanings. His family still had the Xiao Jade Slip, but he also wanted to apologize to the Yu Zhang lineage.

Amu said, "As long as it's Linlang and I's child, it's my child. It doesn't matter whose surname it is."

He would have no place without Linlang, and he would follow Linlang's arrangements in everything.

Since his son had said so, Xiao Zhensheng had no objection at all. "Amu is right."

The young couple smiled at each other. Su Nanting was very relieved, while Xiao Zhensheng was relieved with a little regret. He was also glad that the child was still alive, had experienced hardships, and was now living a happy life.

Linlang asked Amu to talk to the elders, and she and Li Ma Ma went to the kitchen in the backyard to talk to Song. She was a little hungry, so she could also eat something.

Ever since arriving in the capital and buying the courtyard, the family had been flooded with visitors daily, and today was especially lively and joyful. Linlang loved the hustle and bustle, and the smile on her face never faded. She was a little disappointed that her father and second brother weren't here, otherwise everyone would have been there.

Song, who was sitting in the kitchen yard, heard the footsteps and immediately stood up. When she reached the door, she smiled and said, "I guessed it was Linlang."

She reached out and took her daughter's hand. "You've had a tiring day. Are you hungry?"

Linlang held Song's hand affectionately and said coquettishly, "Mother really understands me. I'm just hungry and came to the kitchen to find food."

"You still have a meal in your stomach, you must be hungry soon." Song took her to sit down and quickly asked the kitchen to bring over the prepared side dishes, "Fill your stomach first."

Seeing the delicious food, Linlang's appetite was whetted. She picked up her chopsticks and said, "Mom really loves me. I'll start eating."

"Eat, eat."

Her daughter has always had a good appetite. Song looked at Linlang's belly and knew that this child loved his mother very much. He didn't cause her much trouble after she became pregnant.

Seeing her daughter enjoying the meal, Song felt hungry and stuffed a piece of fried chicken wing into Linlang's mouth, "Eat it too, Mom. It's delicious."

The taste of the chicken that is marinated, coated with flour and fried is indeed different. This dish was taught to the cook by Linlang. I haven't eaten it for several days, so the cook made a plate of it today.

Song took a bite and said, "Hmm, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, it's really delicious."

The mother and daughter ate with gusto and drank a small bowl of kelp soup to help them get rid of the greasiness. The food in the kitchen was ready and they were ready to eat.

There were so many people that two tables were set up in the dining room. Those who could drink naturally sat at the same table with Xiao Zhensheng. Rong Yi, as the head of the family, naturally had to accompany Xiao Zhensheng and Su Nanting, father and son. Xiao Yujian sat at the table with Linlang and Song Shi, and Xiao Yujian sat next to Mo'er.

Amu came over and said something to Linlang, then went to the next table. He was from the Rong family and was considered the host.

Su Nanting and his two sons deliberately reserved a seat for Amu next to Xiao Zhensheng. The father and son had not seen each other for seven years, and they sat together to have a meal and get closer.

With his son sitting next to him, Xiao Zhensheng's face was almost broken with laughter. He asked Amu, "Have you learned how to drink now?"

"I can't hold my liquor, but I can have a drink."

Xiao Yuzhang used to never drink alcohol, but now he can have a glass, which is a big improvement. Xiao Zhensheng smiled and nodded, "Not bad, not bad."

Su Nanting said, "The children can't drink with the Duke, but I'm here. If the Duke wants to get drunk tonight, I'll accompany you to the end."

"Then it's settled." Xiao Zhensheng was so happy that he had to drink a few glasses.

Ah Mu stood up, opened the wine jar, filled his father, father-in-law, and four brothers' glasses, and finally poured himself a glass. After everyone had taken a few bites of the food, he raised his glass and toasted everyone, thanking them for their help.

Ah Mu said, "This is the wine brewed by Lin Lang. It's easy to get drunk, so I'll just take a sip."

Su Nanting knew how good his daughter's wine was. "Amu is right. We should drink slowly. Drinking too quickly will make you drunk easily, and it's not good for your spleen and stomach."

Xiao Zhensheng sniffed the wine in his hand. It was indeed different from what he had drunk before. It turned out to be brewed by his daughter-in-law herself. It must be different. "Good."

A quick sip reveals a rich, mellow aroma and a sweet aftertaste – it's truly a fine wine. No wonder it's served in a small glass; good things should be savored, not guzzled.

"Good wine." If Xiao Zhensheng could praise a wine as good, it must be a good wine, a top-notch wine. He couldn't help but praise, "I didn't expect that Linlang was not only a great doctor, but also a great winemaker."

Linlang stood up and replied politely, "Your Excellency, I'm so grateful for your compliment. I stumbled upon the similarities between brewing wine and making medicine, so I gave it a try and unexpectedly succeeded. It's my honor to be liked by you, Your Excellency, and everyone else."

Xiao Zhensheng's face flushed red as he raised his hand and said to Linlang, "Hurry up and sit down. Hurry up and sit down to eat."

Su Nanting invited Xiao Zhensheng to eat. A Mu picked up some food for his father-in-law and father. Xiao Zhensheng looked at the chicken in the bowl, tears welled up in his eyes and almost fell.

"Thank you, thank you." Xiao Zhensheng turned around and wiped his tears, then picked up his favorite fish for Amu and said, "You have some too."

He then invited Su Nanting, Rong Yi and the three brothers of the Su family to eat, and Xiao Zhensheng's voice was trembling.

This was his own father, how could Amu not feel bad, during the meal he toasted Xiao Zhensheng with a glass of wine and served him food several times. Xiao Zhensheng was so happy that his mouth was almost grinning from ear to ear.

Because of the Northern Qi spy, he and Yu Zhang could not recognize each other, but his son recognized him and it was obvious that he did not blame him. That was enough.

The whole family gathered together and the atmosphere was very cheerful.

The Li family outside the capital was no longer happy, but was filled with gloom and sorrow.

Old Lady Li was in no mood to eat dinner. "What should I do? That Doctor Rong is really Rong Linlang. I heard about it today and secretly went to see her. Not only did I see her, but I also saw Rong Yi. I asked around and found out that Rong Linlang is already married. I heard her husband is a scholar."

"We couldn't defeat her in Lu'er Town before, but now she's escaped to the capital, and she's even more powerful than before. Not only does she own the Marquis of Anchang's Mansion, she's also treated the Master of the Imperial Sacrifice. Now she's treating the Second Young Master of the Duke of Dingguo's Mansion, and she's living in their house."

They cannot afford to offend these families. Rong Linlang has these people as her backers, and the Rong family hates their family. What should they do if the Rong family finds out that they are in the capital and comes to seek revenge?

Old Lady Li found that the Rong brothers and sisters seemed to have been reborn and had become more noble. If they had not lived in Lu'er Town for more than ten years and had been close relatives during those years, she would not have dared to recognize them if she had met them unexpectedly.

Old man Li was in a gloomy mood. He had just received his wages and bought some wine today, but he was in no mood to drink.

The old couple looked at Li Guangping, waiting for his words, wondering what to do. They had just settled down, wouldn't they have to move again?
