Chapter 110 Dingyang Hou is afraid of three women
The restaurant seemed to be surrounded and was about to be ransacked. Many generals in military uniforms were surrounding outside. There were several people standing in front of the door. Su Qianqian only recognized two of them, but Qin Yuzhuo beside her knew them all.
"Why is my uncle here? What is he arguing with Marquis Jinyang about?" Qin Yuzhuo looked curiously at the two people standing in front of the restaurant with their hands on their waists like fighting cocks.
Behind Marquis Jinyang were his two sons, Zhou Jinghuai and Zhou Jingnan, who looked embarrassed. Behind Qin Yuzhuo's uncle, Marquis Dingyang Du Muzhou, were her three cousins. The oldest cousin was almost forty years old this year, and he still followed his father out to quarrel!
"You old bastard, I am leading my subordinates to have a drink, and you want to join in the fun. I won't let you in today. Let's see what you can do to me!"
Marquis Dingyang was a bit short and fat. He pinched his waist with one hand and used the other hand to look up and point at Marquis Jinyang's nose and curse.
"I am old but not as old as you! I am just being kind-hearted. I am giving you, my uncle, some face because your nephew and my son grew up together. I am afraid that your teeth can't even chew bones. If they break, you will be full of wind and can't even drink porridge!
I have booked this restaurant today. I will pay for the food and drinks of the guests in front. If you want to have a meal, that's fine. I, Old Zhou, will reserve a seat for you. But you, your subordinates, can only come in after my people are seated. The rest, go back to where you came from! ”
Marquis Jinyang also put one hand on his waist and gestured with the other hand to drive away Marquis Dingyang's subordinates.
When Marquis Dingyang was told he was old, he flew into a rage. His height was no match for Marquis Jinyang, so he simply jumped up and yelled:
"Bah! I owe you a meal? Believe it or not, I can bite off your claws with my teeth! My nephew has returned from the expedition, and the emperor has been so generous as to comfort the soldiers and their families. This is also the honor of our Dingyang Marquisate. You old bastard actually stole my seat. I will fight you! Sons, go ahead!"
After saying this, Marquis Dingyang bent down and rushed towards Marquis Jinyang!
[Hahaha, this old man is interesting. His temper is even hotter than that of the Third Aunt. He will start a fight if they disagree with each other. No wonder the mother-in-law has been bullying the people in the village and Prime Minister Xue since she was a child. It is impossible to learn to be civilized if you have a brother like this! 】
Su Qianqian felt amused.
Mrs. Du, who was following and getting off the car, said: Daughter-in-law, you really understand me!
The three sisters-in-law got off the carriage first, followed by Madam Qin. Only poor He and Xin were ordered to stay at home, watching their elders running towards the carriage at great speed.
Over there, Marquis Dingyang had already knocked Marquis Jinyang off guard, and Marquis Jinyang grabbed Marquis Dingyang's robe and pulled at his belt...
None of the five sons on either side dared to pull them apart. They just stretched out their hands to protect them, as if they were playing a game of "Eagle Catches Chicken".
Servants cleared the way for the ladies in front of them. At this time, the generals who were watching the fun with a smile made way, and Old Madam Qin was supported by Madam Du and walked over.
"Brother!" Mrs. Du frowned and called out, which really embarrassed her.
"Hey!" Du Muzhou instinctively raised his voice and agreed. He loosened the belt of Marquis Jinyang and looked around. Seeing his sister coming over, he quickly used his hands to adjust her crooked hair crown and said with a smile:
"Sister, how do you have time to accompany the Madam?" When she heard Mrs. Du say that she was coming to the restaurant to taste the food, she quickly bowed to the Madam:
"Madam Tai actually came to have dinner in person. Muzhou is honored. The banquet is ready. Please come in." He pushed the Marquis of Jinyang aside and said, "Make way, you have no vision."
When Marquis Jinyang saw that it was Madam Qin and several old ladies, he didn't want to argue with Marquis Dingyang anymore, so he bowed and invited Madam Qin in.
Su Qianqian watched Madam Qin and her own mother-in-law and two aunts walking proudly past her. She was so shocked that she was speechless. Fortunately, Qin Yuzhuo reminded her in a low voice: "Third sister-in-law, let's go in quickly, otherwise there will be no seats left." Then they hurriedly followed the crowd in.
The restaurant has three floors. When Su Qianqian walked into the private room booked on the second floor, the seats downstairs were all full. There were many common people who came to see the novelty, but there were also many court officials who wanted to show their support for the plaque with imperial calligraphy.
The large round table in the private room was made into a revolving table according to Su Qianqian's suggestion, making it convenient for everyone to pick up food. There was a dedicated person waiting in each private room to take instructions and serve food to the guests.
Marquis Jinyang and Marquis Dingyang were in two private rooms next to each other. Not long after the dishes were served, Marquis Dingyang came in with a plate of sweet and sour pork, smiling.
"Sister, brother brought you a dish, this..." Before Marquis Jinyang finished his words, he saw the girl in charge of this private room bring in a plate of sweet and sour pork and put it on the dining table.
"Haha, you have it too, so I won't bother you anymore!" Marquis Dingyang stepped back and Mrs. Du rolled her eyes.
Qin Yuzhuo couldn't help but laugh.
[Marquis Dingyang is fearless and even dares to throw tantrums and fight in front of the Emperor, but he is only afraid of three women: his sister's eyes and his wife's tears, and if my mother coughs, kneel down immediately. As long as your mother-in-law glares at him, Marquis Dingyang will lose his soul! 】
The system took the opportunity to eat melons.
"Who is it? Who is it?" Marquis Dingyang shouted loudly in the private room next door.
Mrs. Du slapped the table and said, "You are being silly again. I'll go check it out." Then she stood up and went to the next door. With just one look, Marquis Dingyang immediately calmed down and explained in a flattering manner, "Sister, it's that..."
"What kind of place is this? You are allowed to shout and yell. Don't you know that many officials in the court are here? You are so ignorant of your proper place at your age." Mrs. Du scolded in a low voice.
When the nephews of the Du family saw their aunt, they all lowered their heads obediently, like students listening to their teacher's lecture: their father didn't dare to offend their aunt, but he didn't mind taking it out on them!
"Yes, yes, my sister is absolutely right. It was my brother who was impolite. Please don't be angry. Is there anything you like to eat, brother..." Marquis Dingyang did not have any temper at all and accepted it obediently.
"No need for that. Talk less and eat more vegetables." Mrs. Du gave her brother a warning look and turned back.
[Marquis Dingyang was afraid that his wife would cry, so he did not dare to have much contact with the Marquis Wuning's mansion in the past few years. He did send gifts secretly, but he never visited his sister in the mansion. He could only see her when the old lady came back to her parents' home, so you didn't recognize her.
Mrs. Mi, wife of Marquis Dingyang, is a cousin of Duke Xuanguo and often visits Duke Xuanguo's mansion. Naturally, she must have heard some news, so she used both soft and hard tactics to prevent Marquis Dingyang from approaching Marquis Wuning's mansion. 】
The system ate Marquis Dingyang's gossip without any burden, and continued to look for other people's gossip in the restaurant. However, Mrs. Du and Marquis Dingyang in the next private room could not help but remain silent.
This was an unspoken rift between the siblings. Marquis Dingyang felt guilty, and Mrs. Du was inevitably heartbroken. Her brother, who loved her so much, chose to protect himself when the interests were at stake. Of course, it was for the sake of Marquis Dingyang's Mansion, but even though she knew her brother did nothing wrong, the knot still stood between the two of them.
[Hahaha, there are really a lot of melons here. The Deputy Minister of Personnel asked the Vice Minister of Personnel if he could come to taste the dishes. The Vice Minister of Personnel said he had something else to do, so both of them declared that they would not come. However, they met at the same table just now, and it was the Doctor of Personnel who invited them! The lies were exposed without mercy, hahahaha…]
The system is enjoying the melon.
[Eh, the Personnel Department's Deputy Minister actually...] The system's voice became serious.
