Chapter 183 Change of Words
Zhao Yi: “…”
He suspected that the King of Zhenbei had finished asking questions and had nothing more to ask him.
"Father-in-law, when will my mother-in-law and my brothers-in-law come to Beijing?" Zhao Yi asked solemnly, "I will arrange for the two elders to meet."
This question touched the heart of King Zhenbei. The fact that Zhao Yi could think of this showed that he valued them. It also showed from the side that he cared a lot about Manman.
"We'll discuss a date for the meeting after they arrive in Beijing."
The King of Zhenbei's favorability towards Zhao Yi increased significantly.
After hearing the answer from King Zhenbei, Zhao Yi felt relieved.
Judging from the rumors, King Zhenbei is an outlier and even a variable. His thoughts cannot be guessed by ordinary people, so he is worried that he will not be recognized.
After a short time together, Zhao Yi's impression of the King of Zhenbei changed.
No matter how brave and invincible the King of Zhenbei was on the battlefield, when facing his children, he put aside all his glory and became just an ordinary father.
He didn't want to make his daughter sad, so even if he was not satisfied with her husband, he would not make things difficult for him.
I put a lot of thought into the questions I asked him just now. I wanted to understand his basic situation and see if he was worthy of trust.
If Shen Qingtan doesn't have a good life in Duke Zhao's Mansion, the King of Zhenbei will reconsider this marriage, right?
Zhao Yi said respectfully, "When I return home, I will tell the elders in the mansion about you and your mother-in-law going to Beijing."
King Zhenbei nodded slightly.
I have nothing to say to Zhao Yi.
He looked at Shen Qingtan who was lost in thought: "Manman, would you like to stay for dinner before going back?"
Shen Qingtan stared at the wrinkled robe of King Zhenbei with mixed feelings.
It turns out that the King of Zhenbei is not at a loss only when facing his daughter, but he is at a loss when facing everything related to his daughter.
Every question was carefully considered, and he tried every possible way to find out whether she was living well in the Zhao family.
"Okay." Shen Qingtan agreed.
The King of Zhenbei went to the kitchen in person and reported a long list of dishes, telling the chef what to add and what to remove.
There are eight chefs in the Gu Mansion, bringing together eight major cuisines.
They were all hired at a high price.
According to the instructions of the King of Zhenbei, the dishes were cooked exactly as they were and filled the table.
Shen Qingtan sat at the table. There was a large table of dishes, and she couldn't pick out any that she didn't like.
There are no careless people in this world, there is only the difference between those who care and those who don't.
The King of Zhenbei is not a meticulous person, but he takes all the people he cares about to heart.
Shen Qingtan's eyes were hot. He held the bowl and ate in small mouthfuls.
After finishing the meal, everyone just sat there without moving.
No one spoke.
King Zhenbei glanced at the dishes on the table. He wrote down which dish she ate most and which dish she only touched with her chopsticks.
But she felt very uncomfortable looking at him, because many of these dishes were the ones she had to eat at every meal when she was a child, but now she would not touch them.
Time has distanced them.
Changed her preferences.
She would never again throw herself tenderly into his arms, call him daddy sweetly, and beg him to take her riding a horse.
King Zhenbei's emotions were surging, and he really couldn't bear to let Shen Qingtan leave.
"It's late at night, you should go back and rest early."
King Zhenbei stood up and walked the couple to the door.
Shen Qingtan stood at the foot of the stone steps, looking up at the King of Zhenbei standing under the eaves, the light and shadow of the gauze lantern cast on his body.
His body was still strong, but there were a few wrinkles on his cheeks.
No matter how brave he is, he will eventually be defeated by time.
"It's raining, hurry up and get on the carriage." King Zhenbei urged, pulling a smile at the corners of his mouth, and the wrinkles on his cheeks deepened a bit: "Your mother and brothers are here, and daddy will take you home."
"Okay." Shen Qingtan stepped onto the carriage by the wooden ladder, held onto the carriage roof, and looked back at the King of Zhenbei who was standing there: "Dad, you are a brave and warlike general. No matter what you wear, you are a hero in your daughter's heart."
