Food was already placed on the table, Li Zhentian and Ouyang Lan came over, and everyone was already waiting here.
Li Zhentian looked at them and said, "Why are you standing here? Sit down and eat."
Li Yu spoke first: "Er Niang said she would wait until you come."
Li Zhentian frowned slightly and looked at Zhou Weimin.
"Yes. Officer, I have always wanted to say it. There are no rules or rules. You are the head of the family, and your sister is the principal wife. Everyone should wait for you. Another thing is that the master is the master, and the servants are the master. Servants, we can’t say that we eat at the same table. On weekdays, forget it at home. But now it’s outside, and people can see that we can’t tell the difference between master and servant.”
Before Li Zhentian spoke, Ouyang Lan became anxious and said, "There is no distinction between master and servant? Who is the master and who is the servant?" Then she walked to Jian Xin's side and said, "You don't need to take care of my people. You take care of yourself." Just be my maid."
"Sister, you are saying this. I am indeed a side wife, but my maid is a maid, so your maid is not a maid? Shouldn't your maid have privileges?"
"Ha! I've seen it a long time ago. You just don't like Jian Xin."
"Sister, I don't dislike anyone. It's just that the etiquette should not be broken."
"I'm a charlatan and I don't like red tape."
"Can people in the world have no rules and etiquette? Nowadays, the business of officials is getting bigger and bigger, and their prestige in this world is increasing day by day. If someone comes to our house to discuss business in the future and sees that there are no rules at all, what will happen? Decency?"
Jian Xin pulled Ouyang Lan and said, "Okay. Miss, what the second lady said is right. I..."
"What am I? How can you be afraid of her while I'm here!" Ouyang Lan interrupted Jian Xin's words, took out a conspicuous black dagger from her waist, and walked towards Zhou Weimin. This dagger was made by Ouyang Lan's father, Ouyang Jian, after he forged the "Heaven-Breaking Sword". He used the remaining materials to make a dagger. It cut iron like clay and was extremely sharp. It was used for Ouyang Lan's self-defense. Ouyang Lan and Jian Xin worked together Give this dagger its name "Lan Xin".
Zhou Weimin was shocked when she saw this situation. She had never seen such a scene before. I didn't dare to think about why Ouyang Lan took out the dagger as he said so.
Seeing Ouyang Lan pull out the "Lan Xin" dagger, Jian Xin was frightened and quickly stopped Ouyang Lan and held her wrist holding the dagger. She kept shouting, "Miss, Miss!" Jian Xin was just a maid. She never wanted to argue, let alone see Ouyang Lan intensify the conflict again.
A broad hand snatched the dagger from Ouyang Lan's hand. Seeing Li Zhentian snatching the dagger from his hand, Ouyang Lan angrily shouted: "Humph! You are also going towards her, right?!"
"What Weimin said about this matter makes sense."
"So? What Li Daguan wants to say is that it's not mine, right?"
When Zhou Weimin saw this scene, he became proud and said: "Officials can distinguish between public and private affairs. Of course we, wives and concubines, listen to the officials."
"You should say less." Li Zhentian glared at Zhou Weimin angrily.
"Yes Yes."
"Okay, let me talk about it." Then Li Zhentian handed the dagger to Jian Xin. Jian Xin got the dagger, then took the scabbard from Ouyang Lan's waist, put the dagger into the sheath, and held it tightly in her hand, fearing that Ouyang Lan would snatch it away from her again.
"Sit down and eat first, Jian Xin, Zhao Shu, you guys will also sit down. And you two." Li Zhentian waved to his younger son Li Yu, who was standing there at a loss, and his eldest son Li Longzhan, who was already on guard next to his mother. He waved his hand.
Everyone sat down, and Li Zhentian said: "This family should indeed have some rules. The second lady is indeed right about this."
When Ouyang Lan heard this, she wanted to have a seizure.
"But!" Li Zhentian said again: "The privileges that the Second Madam mentioned just now are indeed available." He looked at Zhou Weimin who was standing aside. Then he said earnestly: "There are three people in the family with special status. The first one is Uncle Ji. When Uncle Ji was young, he followed our father on horseback and back. Me, and Lan'er, it was Uncle Ji who watched me grow up. At that time, The escort bureau had just started to improve, but our father left early. I took over our escort bureau when I was sixteen years old, and it was Uncle Ji who took care of the escort bureau. Even now, Uncle Ji is still alone, without even a wife. I once said to Ji My uncle said that he would treat him like a real uncle and provide for him in the future. The second one is Zhao Shu. Zhao Shu was specially invited to our house by me. He is not a servant at home, he is Zhan Er and Yu'er's master is also my guest."
"Master, you are serious. You are just kind enough to take me in."
"What are you talking about? With your martial arts, you can't go anywhere. You are willing to stay and help me teach my children martial arts, train bodyguards, and handle some affairs of the bodyguard bureau in your spare time. You have done me a great favor. Finally. It's Jian Xin!" Li Zhentian looked at Jian Xin and said, "Jian Xin was indeed a maid of Zhu Renmen before, but his father-in-law had already expelled Jian Xin from Zhu Renmen. In other words, Jian Xin was originally a maid of Zhu Renmen. Free."
Ouyang Lan hugged Jian Xin beside her and said, "That's right! Daddy already kicked you out of the house back then."
Jian Xin didn't want to pay attention to Ouyang Lan and refused to let Ouyang Lan hug her.
"Here, let me tell you directly. Jian Xin will be my sister from now on. No one can treat her like a human being, whether at home or outside!" Li Zhentian looked at Zhou Weimin seriously, "The rest of the people want to discipline you. That’s what discipline is. Do you understand?”
Li Zhentian has already said this. How dare Zhou Weimin disobey and said, "The slave family knows."
"You two understand this, right?" He looked at Yu'er and Long Zhan.
Li Long stood up and said, "Dad, I understand."
Li Yu did not stand up, however, and said, "I have never misled anyone!" Then he made a face at Ouyang Lan and Jian Xin, making Ouyang Lan and Jian Xin laugh.
"Okay. Now that I've made it clear, let's eat! I'm hungry too."
Zhou Weimin quickly smiled and said: "Officer, what do you want to eat? The slave family will give you some. And sister. What do you want to eat?"
Ouyang Lan was quite satisfied with Li Zhentian's handling of the matter, but she still felt a little angry. Seeing Zhou Weimin's face changing faster than flipping through a book, his heart was filled with contempt, and he said, "No need. I can do it myself." Ouyang Lan and the others were hungry after running around all day.
When the meal was about to end, Li Zhentian said: "Tomorrow morning I have to go to the Prince Consort's Mansion. Madam, Yu'er and Zhao Shu are both going. How about you, Wei Min?"
"Since you and your sister's friends are getting together, it's inconvenient for me to go."
"What about you, Zhan'er?"
Li Longzhan said hesitantly: "Me. I won't go either."
Li Zhentian nodded and said, "Yeah. Okay."
Zhou Weimin immediately retorted: "Zhan'er has to go. You don't have to stay with your mother in the inn. You can go and see with your father and aunt."
"Forehead."
"Okay, then you can come with us tomorrow morning."
"good!"
"Then everyone, go to bed early after dinner. Remember to get up early tomorrow, don't be too late." Then Li Zhentian left with Lan Xin.
"Hey, Lan'er, you are satisfied with this result."
"Whatever you are satisfied or dissatisfied with, this is how it should be."
"Yes, yes, my dear lady."
"Where did you find such a woman!? If you hadn't found this woman, how could there have been so many things. Come to think of it, my father-in-law only loved my mother, and he never married her again after her death. But you, you already have someone in your family. He has a wife, but he marries another one. He is really better than his predecessor."
Zhentian looked embarrassed, I was here to help you, why did you get involved in this matter again? ! Said: "Lan'er, I only fall in love with you. The second lady's incident was really just an accident."
"Okay, I don't want to hear your explanation. Let's go to the room." With that said, the two of them had already walked to the door of Tianer and Tiansan's guest rooms.
"Lan'er, I haven't seen you in the past few days. Let's sleep together in my room."
"Who wants to sleep with you? I want to sleep with Jian Xin."
"No, I haven't seen you these past few days. I miss you. I almost couldn't come back." Li Zhentian pretended to be pitiful.
Ouyang Lan doesn't want to follow his advice and still wants to go back to Tianer to rest.
"Oh, then I can only go to Weimin."
"you dare!"
"You won't accompany me, and you won't let others accompany me?!"
"Okay, okay, we're an old married couple, and we still have to deal with this."
Seeing that Ouyang Lan agreed, Li Zhentian held his beautiful lady and prepared to enter the house. At this time, Jian Xin also came back. When he saw this scene, he smiled evilly and said: "You two, please be quiet at night and don't affect my sleep. And this dagger, I will hold it first." He waved and raised his hand. Lanxin dagger and entered the house. Zhentian also carried Ouyang Lan into the house to rest.
The next morning, we had breakfast. At 6 o'clock, everyone gathered at the door of the inn and got on the carriage. Zhou Weimin saw each other off at the door of the inn. After everyone left, Zhou Weimin said, "You have a good father and a good sworn brother! One day, I will be the master of this family!" Then he went back to the room with the maid.
Soon we arrived at the Prince Consort's Mansion. Li Zhentian and others got out of the car, and the two guards guarding the door were still the same as when they arrived yesterday. When he saw Li Zhentian, he said, "Master Li, you are here."
"Please pass it on."
"No, the princess has told me that you don't need to pass a message when you come, you can just enter the house directly."
"OK."
A light blue waitress walked over from inside. Seeing Ouyang Lan who had already got off the carriage, she said, "Ah! Isn't this a crazy girl from the blacksmith's family?"
Ouyang Lan looked up and said with a smile, "Yes! A silly girl from the princess's family. Little Hanfeng." Then she jumped briskly onto the steps. The two girls held each other's arms, and the two children also came over.
Ouyang Lan pointed at Li Yu proudly and said: "This is my son! Yu'er." Then she said to Li Yu: "Come on, call Sister Hanfeng."
"Hanfeng...sister?"
Hanfeng punched Ouyang Lan and said, "Are you trying to take advantage of me now!?" He said to Li Yu, "Call me aunt!"
"Hanfeng! How can you, an unmarried girl, call you aunt?"
"Come on, come on." Then Hanfeng looked at the other boy and asked, "Who is this?"
Li Longzhan bowed to Hanfeng and said, "Hello, Miss Hanfeng. I am the other son of Master Li, and my name is Li Longzhan."
"Oh, you must be that Mrs. Zhou's son."
"Exactly."
"I heard someone mention you. You are quite polite." Then he whispered to Ouyang Lan: "You don't look like his aunt!"
Li Longzhan replied: "You are grateful."
At this time, Li Zhentian and Zhao Shu also came over and greeted Hanfeng.
Hanfeng saw everyone and said, "You are all here! Okay! The princess and the consort are in the back hall, come with me."
