Chapter 645: Meeting

Rongchuan thought the shop was good, "It's really good."

Watch carefully, the rest will be left to Mr. Deng.

It was a rare trip, and Chang Zhong didn't want to go back early. "Mom, please take me shopping, and let's go to a restaurant for dinner."

Zhulan laughed. The young man had always thought about the restaurant. Every time Changlian came back from drinking, he would ask, "Okay, let's go to the restaurant to eat today."

The young man was so happy, "Future brother-in-law, please carry me away."

Zhulan looked at her son's ball-like body and said, "You're too heavy."

Rong Chuan narrowed his eyes, "Auntie, Chang Zhong is not heavy, I can hold him."

Changzhong, "My brother-in-law is so nice."

Zhu Lan burst out laughing, and the word "future" was gone. "You, you are not a big person, but you have given people a lot of magic potion."

Chang Zhong waited for his brother-in-law to pick him up, and leaned his little head against his brother-in-law's shoulder, "I just like my brother-in-law."

My brother-in-law is used to him!

Zhulan watched Rongchuan holding Changzhong carefully. This child will be a good father. Rongchuan is really gentle sometimes.

As the temperature gradually rose, there were more people on the street and every stall was bustling.

Changzhong was the happiest one. The little guy looked at each stall excitedly. When he saw something he liked, he touched his little purse, which contained silver.

Speaking of silver, Zhulan wanted to laugh. Her son didn't recognize silver before. Mingrui taught him that. Now her son puts silver in his wallet, but not much. Zhulan didn't care what her son bought. She just laughed at her son who frowned and couldn't count.

The young man turned around and glared at his mother, saying that she didn't help him and even laughed at him. Fortunately, he still had his brother-in-law, "brother-in-law."

Rong Chuan's eyes were full of smiles, "Okay, I'll help you."

Soon, all the money in Changzhong's pocket was spent, and the young man became quiet. He was hungry after traveling all the way, so he found a restaurant and went in.

Because she has children, Zhulan asked for a private room. Fortunately, it was not a hotel at this time and there were still private rooms available.

The private room was very elegant. After ordering some of the restaurant's specialties, Zhulan leaned back in a chair and took a rest. She was old and must have been very tired after walking all the way.

Changzhong pulled Rongchuan to open the window of the private room, which faced the street, and he lay down in front of the window and looked outside.

Rongchuan was quite nervous, fearing that Changzhong would fall. This was no joke, so he hugged Changzhong tightly and said, "Be careful, just look at it this way."

Changzhong didn't understand what he was saying, but he kept talking, "Brother-in-law, look, it's a big horse. It's a really big horse."

Rongchuan looked in the direction the young man pointed. No wonder he was surprised. Horses are indeed rare and don't look like domesticated horses.

Changzhong became even more excited, "Brother-in-law, I want a horse like this when I grow up."

He felt that he no longer liked his toy horse, and all he could see was the horse getting closer and closer.

Ningxu liked riding a horse rather than a carriage as the weather got better. She heard the children's screams from far away and was used to it. However, their childish voices were quite interesting. When she walked in and looked up, Ningxu tightened the reins and stared blankly at the window of the restaurant.

Rong Chuan frowned. The man in front of him was obviously from a rich and powerful family. His clothes and accessories were all of high quality. He thought that he didn't like Chang Zhong's exclamation, so he quickly held Chang Zhong's head and said politely, "We don't mean anything else. We just like horses and took a few more glances."

Ning Xu still hadn't come back to her senses. It was only when the servant beside her noticed something was wrong that she said, "My Lord."

Ning Xu regained his senses and never took his eyes off the boy upstairs. Yes, that boy. He asked dryly with a hoarse voice, "What's your name?"

Rong Chuan's heart skipped a beat and his face turned pale. What did this mean? Staring at him?

Zhulan heard the noise in the private room, stood up and walked over, and was stunned when she saw it, "Lord Ning."

Ning Xu blinked and finally stopped looking at the boy. Her eyes fell on the woman and the child. They looked familiar. Fortunately, she remembered them not too long ago. She quickly remembered, "It's you."

Zhulan was surprised. They only met once and it wasn't a deep impression, but he actually remembered it. He was worthy of being a spy. "Did my children disturb you just now? They are young, please don't blame them."

Ning Xu realized that he had frightened someone, and tried to remain calm, "I don't blame you."

He wanted to say something more afterwards, but he couldn't, because there were people coming and going on the street, and there were people watching him all the time. It was the power around the prince that allowed him to restore his identity.

Zhu Lan smiled. Even though she thought highly of Lord Ning, she still had to be careful. A man who had been a spy would think a lot about your words. "We won't bother Lord Ning anymore."

Ning Xi wanted to speak again, but seeing that the boy's face was still not much better, she closed her mouth. He must have scared him just now. "Yeah."

Zhulan waited for a response, then smiled and closed the window. After closing the window, she pinched her son's face and said, "Don't make a fuss in the future. This is the capital, where the rich and powerful gather."

Changzhong didn't understand, but he understood the atmosphere. His mother was very careful in what she said just now, and she hugged her brother-in-law tightly, "I won't dare to do that again in the future."

Then he felt a little aggrieved, "Mom, it would be better if Dad was here."

In his impression, his father is omnipotent and the most powerful.

Zhulan tapped her son's forehead and said, "It won't work even if your father is here, son. Your father is only a fourth-rank official."

Chang Zhong would count from one to ten, his eyes widened, "So the fifth rank is higher than Dad's?"

Rongchuan chuckled, and his nervousness disappeared. He stroked Changzhong's hair and said, "No, the smaller the number, the higher the rank."

Downstairs in the tavern, Ning Xu rode his horse very slowly. The noise in the box was very low. Although he was old, his ears were very good. After listening to the conversation, the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up.

The servant did not dare to ask the Marquis, he just felt that the Marquis was in a good mood today.

Ning Xu did not turn around to look in the direction of the restaurant, but recalled the appearance she had just seen. The boy was not very old, and the clothes and accessories he wore showed that he was a child of an official.

Ning Xu closed his eyes and quickly opened them again. This was not the place to talk, so he flew back home.

After returning to the mansion, Ning Xu said to the servant beside him, "Go check everyone in the wine shop's private room carefully. I want all the information this afternoon. Go quickly."

The servant said, "Yes."

In the restaurant, Zhulan didn't know yet that her family was under investigation. The food in this restaurant was good and Zhulan was very satisfied with the meal.

Changzhong touched his round belly and said, "Mom, we'll grow it out and eat it later."

Zhu Lan refused, "That won't do. Although our family doesn't lack the money, we can't always be extravagant. A meal at the restaurant is enough to cover the food expenses of the Zhou family for half a month."

These are the Zhou family in Jinzhou, not a few people from the capital, so this meal is really expensive.

Changzhong still didn't understand.

Zhulan touched her son's head and said, "You will understand in the future."
