Zhu Siheng said, "I met the master at the home of a classmate of mine. If I want to find her, I have to go to my classmate's home again. Father, how about this! You are also frightened, and it is late today. Tomorrow morning I will invite the master to our home, and we will prepare a generous gift to thank the master."
Zhu Wei agreed as well. "Okay, there happens to be a banquet in the City Lord's Mansion tomorrow to thank General Shen for coming to help us suppress the bandits in Furong City. General Shen was the general who followed His Majesty in the expedition. He not only has a very good relationship with His Majesty, but is also a master of marching and fighting. I didn't expect the court to send him here in person this time, and I will definitely not neglect him."
The elder nodded and said, "Then I will definitely prepare well for this banquet."
The city lord nodded, took the elder's hand and said, "I'll leave these things to you. Thank you for your hard work, elder. I will compensate you well in the future."
Hearing this, the adult smiled.
She felt happy when she saw the jealous faces of the six people.
"City Lord, my wife, why are you talking about this? I will go and prepare for tomorrow's banquet."
Zhu Wei nodded, "Go! From now on, all the affairs of the mansion will be handed over to you. You are always thorough."
Hearing this, the six people's faces suddenly turned pale. Recently, she took advantage of the eldest master's illness and finally took the housekeeper's power from her. She didn't expect that now she would suddenly give it back. She was not happy, but she didn't dare to say a word of rebuttal.
The elder looked at the six people with disdain, and then went to prepare.
Zhu Siheng said to his father, "Father, I will also go downstairs to prepare and invite the master to come to our home as a guest tomorrow."
Zhu Wei nodded, "Okay, go quickly."
Zhu Siheng returned to his own yard, took the banknotes and went to Zhao Jinchen's house.
When Zhu Siheng arrived at the Zhao family, the Zhao brothers and sisters were having dinner. When they saw Zhu Siheng coming, they hurriedly asked him to sit down and eat.
"Brother Zhu, you've arrived just in time. Come sit down and have dinner together."
Zhu Siheng hurriedly said: "Brother Zhao, I don't want to eat. I've eaten. Where's the master?"
The Zhao siblings realized belatedly that the title "Master" was referring to Meng Meng.
Zhao Jinhuan said: "Mengmeng and the others are at the inn."
"Brother Zhu, do you want to find her? I'll take you there after dinner!"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Siheng sat down and waited.
Zhu Siheng looked at Zhao Jinhuan who was eating in a hurry and said hurriedly, "You don't have to be in a hurry, eat slowly."
Zhao Jinhua smiled embarrassedly, then slowed down.
Zhu Siheng looked at her, then at Zhao Jinchen, and said carefully: "Brother Zhao, Jinhua, there will be a banquet at my house tomorrow to entertain the master and a friend of my father. Brother Zhao, you and Jinhua should also go!"
Hearing this, Zhao Jinchen was surprised!
Zhu Siheng had never told them about his family background before, but he didn't expect that he would directly invite them to his home today.
Zhu Siheng suddenly stood up and said solemnly to the Zhao brothers and sisters: "Brother Zhao, I like Jinhua and want to marry her. I know you don't know my family background, so I want to invite you to my home tomorrow."
Unexpectedly, Zhu Siheng suddenly said this, and the Zhao brother and sister were stunned.
After Zhao Jinhuan realized what was going on, her face turned red with shame. Then she suddenly remembered what Mengmeng said, that the person who proposed to her within ten days would be her destined person. Thinking of this, Zhao Jinhuan became even more excited and shy.
Zhao Jinchen came to his senses after being stunned for a moment and said, "Brother Zhu, this is too sudden."
Zhu Siheng nodded quickly, "I know, I know it was very sudden. In fact, I heard Lin Zhao tell you a while ago that he wanted to marry Jinhua. I was anxious at that time. I was afraid that you would agree to him. Although Lin Zhao is not here now, Jinhua is already at the age of marriage. I am afraid that if I am not brave enough, I will miss such a good girl like her."
"I'm sincere. Jinhua is beautiful and kind. I liked her the first time I saw her. After we got along, I liked her even more. I... am I being reckless in saying this? Sorry! I just want to express my feelings. I'm not well-educated, so I may not be very thoughtful in what I say. I hope you can understand my feelings."
Zhao Jinhuan's face was so red that she didn't dare to lift it up.
Zhao Jinchen said seriously, "Brother Zhu, we don't know what your family situation is. I know you well enough. You are a person of noble character. I don't trust you to entrust others with anything. As long as your family doesn't have any complicated situation and Huanhuan is willing, I will agree."
Zhu Siheng was pleasantly surprised when he heard this!
"Really? Brother Zhao, do you agree?"
Zhao Jinchen nodded, "Yeah."
Zhu Siheng immediately looked at Zhao Jinhuan, trying to see what she meant. Zhao Jinhuan suddenly met his gaze, her face flushed, and she shyly avoided his gaze.
Zhu Siheng's heart was in his throat as he waited nervously for her answer.
Zhao Jinhua whispered, "I always listen to my elder brother."
Hearing this, Zhao Jinchen smiled, there was nothing he didn't understand.
Zhu Siheng, on the other hand, looked at Zhao Jinchen eagerly.
Zhao Jinchen laughed, then said, "Then I will think about it for three days, and give Brother Zhu an answer after three days."
Zhu Siheng nodded repeatedly, unable to stop smiling.
Zhao Jinhua had no appetite for the rest of the meal.
Zhao Jinchen put down his bowl and chopsticks and said, "After eating, Huanhuan, take Brother Zhu to find Mengmeng and the others! I'll clean up here."
Zhao Jinhuan blushed and nodded, "Brother Zhu, let's go!"
Zhu Siheng looked at her blushing face and couldn't help blushing slightly.
At this time, Mengmeng and Yangyang were fighting with others in the inn. A man with a pointed chin and monkey face tried to steal the purse on Mengmeng's waist, but Mengmeng caught him with one hand. When she was about to teach him a lesson, several helpers came running and clamored for her to let him go.
They didn't care that this was in public, they just robbed it directly, there was no need to steal.
They hadn't stolen anything yet and were discovered. They were very unhappy. They didn't take the two children seriously at all and threatened them with words.
Just now when Mengmeng was paying, they all saw the bulging purse and were very tempted. If they didn't rob it, they would be unworthy of their sneaky nature.
Three or four people surrounded Meng Meng and Yang Yang, threatening them. But before Yang Yang could do anything, a man said in a deep voice, "You stole the money of a child and tried to scare him. The security in Furong City is really bad."
Several people turned their heads and saw a man walking over with a sullen face.
He was dressed in black brocade clothes that outlined his muscular figure. He held a long sword in his hand. He had a handsome face and a heroic posture. His deep, dark eyes were slightly narrowed, his brows were slightly furrowed, and he glanced at the people present.
When his eyes fell on the two children, he was visibly stunned, and a familiar yet strange feeling rose from the bottom of his heart.
