Chapter 240 Ming En Welcomes Guests and Looks for Family
"My eldest brother is weak and can't go to crowded places, otherwise he will faint. My sister is about to take action again. Today is the day for her to clear her name. How can I let her be distracted?"
Du Zhixu touched Wen Nuo's head and said, "You are really sensible. You know how to care about my sister."
"Hehe..." Wen Nuo grinned, "That's my sister, the best sister. Of course I have to care about her. When I grow up, I have to make a lot of money to support her. Since you're her third brother, shouldn't you pamper her even more?"
Du Zhixu smiled and said, "Of course. Come on, I'll take you to Zhuohuayuan."
"Sister Meng, you are right. Your Zhuohua Courtyard can accommodate a hundred of me. I want to stay in Zhuohua Courtyard for a few more days to accompany you."
Du Zhixu frowned subconsciously. The little foreign boy is still a foreign boy. How could he live in his sister's yard?
It's true that I don't know the rules.
"...Sister Meng, Sister Yun, would you also like to stay and spend more time with me?"
Jiang Shiyun: "When mother and grandfather come, I will ask mother. If mother agrees, I will stay to accompany my cousin."
"Sister Meng, what about you?"
Cheng Qingmeng shook her head. "My mother is in poor health, so I have to accompany her to sleep every night."
"Xiao Nuo." Du Zhixu said, "Why don't you ask your parents?"
"My parents don't want me and my brother anymore. I'll be living in the Jiang Mansion from now on. Uncle Song and Aunt Song are like my parents. They will definitely agree to let me stay for three days." Wen Nuo looked up at Du Zhixu, "Third brother, don't you want me to stay for three nights?"
Third brother?
"Of course I am willing. You are my sister's younger brother, and this young master's younger brother. The Du Mansion is your home. You can stay as many days as you want."
Du Zhixu regretted it the moment he finished speaking, because that meant that Wen Nuo, the fat foreigner, would have to live in Zhuohuayuan!
"But you have to live in the same yard with my third brother..."
Wen Nuo understood instantly, "Okay, I will live in the same yard with my third brother...Uncle Song."
Wen Nuo saw Song Mingen, ran over, and threw himself into Song Mingen's arms, "I haven't seen you for three days, I miss you."
Song Mingen quickly pulled him away, "Be careful, the mask is loose."
"Oh." Wen Nuo raised his hand and tightened the mask.
Du Zhixu was very surprised to see this, as he had seen the true faces of these two people.
They were inside Zhuohua Courtyard and there were no outsiders around, so he looked like he was afraid the mask would fall off.
Could it be that someone is hunting down this uncle and nephew?
"Uncle."
"Uncle, my sister and I are going to the main house to see our cousin first."
Song Mingen said gently, "Go ahead."
"I'm going to see my sister too. I'll be waiting outside the main house. I haven't seen my sister in three days."
Song Mingen smiled and touched his head, "Go ahead."
Song Mingen tilted his head to look at Du Zhixu, "Mr. Du San, where is your father?"
Du Zhixu: "Uncle Song, my father is in Zhaohui Courtyard talking to my grandmother right now. He will go to the front yard to receive guests soon."
"Then take me to find your father." Song Mingen reached out and held his shoulder, pulling him out. "...It's just right for you and your son to welcome the guests together."
No, he came to see his sister!
Du Zhixu did not dare to resist the oppressive feeling coming from his side.
"Cousin, we're here to see you."
Song Yu was dressed in a wide-sleeved, flowing fairy dress in yellow and crimson, her face painted with delicate and elegant makeup, and she wore a golden hairpin with a phoenix ornament bestowed by the emperor. She slowly turned around and said, "This is the vision of the two mothers. What do you think? Does it look good?"
"Wow!" Cheng Qingmeng and Jiang Shiyun exclaimed at the same time, "Beautiful, very beautiful. My cousin looks like a fairy today."
Song Yu breathed a sigh of relief. It was great that she didn't have to try on clothes again.
"My dear mothers, let's go with this outfit. Both of my cousins said it looks good."
Su Beiqing and Jiang Yunwan lowered their eyes and looked at the dresses they had just taken out of the closet.
Jiang Yunwan said, "It feels a little off. Why don't you try this light yellow one?"
"No." Song Yu shook her head, and the hairpin on her head swayed. Song Yu quickly took it off and replaced it with a white jade phoenix hairpin.
"That's quite nice, my two mothers. I'll take my cousin to sit in the flower hall. Call me when it's time for me to make an appearance."
After Song Yu finished speaking, he hurriedly pulled Cheng Qingmeng and Jiang Shiyun out of the inner room.
"Sister, you look even better after not seeing you for three days."
Song Yu smiled and said, "You're the only one who talks sweetly. Let's go sit in the hall first. Tell me if Wen Shu can speak clearly now."
On the other side, Du Henian was in a good mood when he saw Song Mingen coming over.
He has no reason to stay in the Du Mansion today, right?
"Brother Song, it's still early for the family reunion banquet, why are you here so early?"
Song Mingen: "As Sister Yu's adoptive father, I must welcome the guests with you and your son. Let's go over now so I can get to know them."
Du Henian secretly complained: Is this an opportunity to get to know more dignitaries?
Tsk, he really knows how to curry favor.
"Ha..." Du Henian laughed, "Then let's go over there now."
Song Mingen winked at Zhang Feng.
This is a rare opportunity, so you must open your eyes and take a good look at the appearance of all the guests attending the banquet.
If my guess is correct, I can probably see family members who look somewhat like me today.
"Brother Song, my mother said you will be taking part in the Autumn Examination next year?"
"Oh, give it a try, otherwise you will feel a little regretful."
"You won't have any regrets. With Master Jiang personally guiding you, you will definitely make it to high school."
"Ha... I'll take your good words."
As soon as they arrived at the front yard, the doorman led Jiang Youya and Feng Yingying in.
"Mr. Jiang, you're here." Du Henian came forward warmly and said, "You are the first distinguished guests to come to the mansion today."
"Today is Sister Yu's big day. As her grandfather, I have to be the first one to come. I hope Sister Yu hasn't suffered any injustice in the past three days staying at the Du Mansion?"
"Mr. Jiang, we are all Sister Yu's family. We can't wait to pamper her. How can we let her suffer any injustice? Come in and sit down."
Jiang Youya waved his hand and said, "I will welcome the guests with you."
"Dad, your daughter-in-law will go to Zhuohuayuan to see Sister Yu first."
"Okay, go ahead."
As soon as Feng Yingying left, the Minister of Revenue Zhang Mingyuan came in with his family.
"Your humble servant Zhang Mingyuan greets Elder Jiang and Lord Du."
"No need to be polite." Jiang Youya quickly introduced Song Mingen to Zhang Mingyuan, "This is my eldest son-in-law, Song Mingen. Mingen, this is the Minister of Revenue, Zhang Mingyuan."
"Greetings, Master Zhang."
Zhang Mingyuan also quickly raised his hand to greet Song Mingen, with a lot of waves in his heart.
Is this the rumored son-in-law of Mr. Jiang who came from a peasant family?
With her tall figure and elegant demeanor, she doesn't look like him.
Song Mingen wore an exquisitely crafted orchid mask that covered her eyebrows and nose, giving her a sense of mystery that made Zhang Mingyuan dare not underestimate her.
Although he is a commoner, he is the adoptive father of the real daughter of the marquis's mansion and the son-in-law of Boss Jiang.
As soon as the real daughter of the Marquis's Mansion returned to Beijing, she saved Old Madam Mu and was directly promoted to a sixth-rank noble lady by the Emperor.
The fact that this person was able to raise an adopted daughter in this way is enough to show that he is not an ordinary person and cannot be easily offended.
"Congratulations, my Lord. Congratulations, my Lord, on finding your biological child."
