Chapter 13 I also have children at home who need to be pampered
Li Tianzhuo's voice is brisk, like the clear wind and bright moon.
He just watched the show as a bystander.
See how the Deng family ends.
Deng Zheng's eyes were bloodshot.
He never thought of giving Deng Youning any gift.
Whether it is a meeting gift, a recognition gift, or other gifts.
It seemed that since the child came back, the Deng family had not given her anything, not even a set of jewelry...
He didn't blame himself, but knew how to reflect on himself.
I’m afraid that there are too many people in the mansion and the news of my harsh treatment of my own daughter might leak out.
Seeing that he had no idea what he was thinking and hadn't replied, Li Tianzhuo didn't have the time to continue wasting time with him.
"Duke Zhenguo, you have your precious daughter who needs to be coaxed, and I also have a child at home who needs to be spoiled."
"I'm sorry I can't give you this bracelet."
His nonchalant tone seemed as if he was joking.
Listening carefully to the last few words, there was a cold ferocity in them.
Without waiting for the words to fall, he threw his cloak behind him and walked away quickly as if he was avoiding garbage.
Li Tianzhuo's words seemed to wake Deng Zheng up.
He hurriedly took a mutton-fat jade bracelet that was second only to the blood-white jade bracelet of the Nine Immortals of Mirror Moon, and hurried to the street.
I randomly found a small shop and picked out a chalcedony bracelet.
It only cost less than five taels!
There is no other way, Fenglu has to support a large family.
As for his own pocket money, he still had to go to Wanhua Tower.

Han Qiongyue sent invitations to the family reunion banquet to almost half of the capital city.
No matter if they are prominent figures or all kinds of people, as long as they are people who can stir up trouble in this city, she hopes that Deng Youning can make friends with them.
Her granddaughter would never cause trouble.
But if disaster really befalls Deng Youning, she also hopes that Ningning has the ability to fight it.
Only ten days after returning to Beijing, Deng Youning had gained some weight and was no longer as skinny as before.
Han Qiongyue just wanted to feed her to make her fat.
She was asked to eat a lot for all three meals, which were all meaty and greasy food.
Deng Youning also enjoyed the meal.
In her previous life, during the two years when her grandmother was still alive, Deng Youning also controlled her diet in order to maintain a slim figure.
It can be said that in the entire two lifetimes, I have never eaten and drank as extravagantly as I have in the past few days.
She knew clearly that only by eating and drinking enough and keeping in good health could she better fight against people from the Deng family.
Now she has gained weight and looks better.
Then she put on the gorgeous clothes that Han Qiongyue had customized for her.
Not to mention the drastic change in his entire person, he was also much better than his half-dead appearance before.
Yingshi applied pearl makeup on her face.
Looking at herself in the mirror, Deng Youning recalled the family reunion party in her previous life.
It was her first time to attend such a grand banquet.
She had never seen such a scene before, so she was naturally nervous.
Deng Xuelian hypocritically introduced her friends to her.
After the banquet, she was looked down upon by all the noble ladies.
Even the fireworks that her grandmother had specially arranged for her were silenced by Deng Xuelian's manipulation.
She became a laughing stock in the whole capital.
After that, the rumors in the capital that she was not of the bloodline of the Duke of Zhenguo became more and more rampant.
After living a new life, she is no longer the wild girl from the mountains!
She followed her grandmother to greet the guests one by one.
In recent years, the world has been peaceful and there is no need to fight wars. Both the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion and Han Qiongyue's Han Family have become less glorious.
Gu is a person who doesn't know how to plan for the long term.
She completely ignored the people she should make friends with in Beijing.
Han Qiongyue is getting old, and the time she has to take care of the family is limited.
She felt that if she wanted the Duke's Mansion to survive, she could only place her hopes on Deng Youning.
"Thank you all for taking the time to attend Ning Ning's family reunion party."
"I'll need your help in moving around Beijing from now on."
Han Qiongyue raised the glass of wine, which was also a notification to the guests.
Everyone raised their glasses and drank together.
"You Ning, this is a gift from your father to you."
"Open it and see if you like it."
Deng Zheng happily took out the chalcedony bracelet he bought at a street stall.
In his heart, being able to give Deng Youning such a bracelet was something Deng Youning would never have asked for.
Deng Youning didn't expect that Deng Zheng would give her something, and was a little surprised.
Under everyone's gaze, she opened the box.
Seeing that there was only a chalcedony bracelet inside that a country woman could afford with some money, a sarcastic smile appeared on her face.
The other members of the Deng family also stretched their necks to see what it was.
When Gu saw it, he nodded in approval.
I feel my husband did not give me the wrong gift.
When Deng Yi saw this, a sarcastic smile appeared on his face.
You see, the father doesn't take his own daughter seriously.
So what even if he has the blood of their Deng family?
When Han Qiongyue saw this, her face turned pale. If she had to remain dignified, she really wanted to slap Deng Zheng in the face right now.
This kind of thing is given to the legitimate daughter?
It was at Ningning’s family recognition party!
What does he mean?
Not welcoming Ningning back and deliberately wanting to embarrass her?
Deng Xuelian saw it and felt very grateful in her heart, but her expression was very decent.
"Oh, it's a bracelet."
"Come, I'll help my sister carry it."
Having said that, Deng Xuelian wanted to take a step forward and take the chalcedony bracelet.
Deng Youning went with the flow.
The Deng family is not afraid of making a fool of themselves, so what is she afraid of?
"Sister, this bracelet is so beautiful, why don't we go to the guests and wear it."
She had already grabbed Deng Xuelian's wrist and dragged her down forcefully.
Deng Youning knows martial arts, and Deng Xuelian has no ability to resist at all and can only let her do whatever she wants.
They were standing at the table, and Deng Zheng suddenly realized that something was wrong. He wanted to stop it, but it was too late.
"Hey, I thought it was something interesting? It's just a chalcedony bracelet, and the quality is so ordinary!"
"That's right, my maid doesn't even want this thing."
The guests' constant gossip made Deng Zheng and Gu feel completely humiliated.
Han Qiongyue glared at them and muttered softly:
“It’s your own fault!”
When Deng Xuelian put the bracelet on Deng Youning, the mutton-fat jade bracelet on her wrist that her father gave her the day before was faintly visible.
In the bright sunshine, the bracelet is as smooth as cream.
"Look, the mutton-fat jade bracelet on the wrist of the eldest daughter of the Deng family, if I remember correctly, should be a tribute brought by the envoy of Nan Yin."
"Ah, why is this Duke's Mansion like this? They give good things to the eldest daughter who was born out of wedlock, and a worthless thing to the second daughter who was born out of wedlock?"
“…”
The guests' discussions were like ants in a buzzing nest.
Members of the Deng family began to get angry and embarrassed.
"Deng Youning, what are you dissatisfied with?"
Deng Yi listened to what the guests said and naturally took it as Deng Youning's true feelings.
He pointed at Deng Youning and yelled, as if he had no place to vent his anger.
Deng Youning was so angry that she laughed.
"I didn't say a word!"
"Besides, my father can give away such cheap chalcedony, so why would he be afraid of what others say?"
She stared at Deng Zheng, seeing how guilty he was and how he didn't dare to look her in the eye.
Although I don't know why he gave me a gift in this life.
But Deng Youning instinctively thought that he just wanted to humiliate her.
Suddenly, the doorman reported loudly:
"Commander Li is here!"
