The fool has become a spirit, and she can speak

Lu Siniang asked: "When will you be back?"

Ge Dongqing said: "It's hard to say. I guess it will take some time and I won't be back soon."

"What takes so long?"

"I can't tell you. The Marquis's affairs need to be kept secret."

"With whom?"

"Let them do what they want. Madam, if you don't believe me, you can go outside the gate and see where they are waiting for me."

Lu Siniang really walked out of the gate and took a look. There was a sea of ​​people, all of them tall and strong, ready to go, as if they were going to war. Only Ge Dongqing was skinny and didn't fit in with those people. Even so, Lu Siniang knew that she had to get out of the gate.

"I see. Go ahead, have you packed your luggage?"

"Thanks to Madam's concern, everything has been packed up properly."

"Be careful on the road."

"The journey is not far, ma'am, don't worry."

"Ah."

In this way, Lu Siniang watched Ge Dongqing get on his horse and leave. She didn't know when this man would come back.

Shang Xi also got excited at home, "Cheng Feng, go to the city and buy a lamb. We will roast the whole lamb today."

"It's rare that you feel like roasting a whole lamb. Why don't you wait until your son comes back? Cheng Youning loves roasted meat."

"No, I've figured it out. He can come back or not, and I won't care about him anymore."

"Wife, your attitude suddenly changed. I don't know whether you said this sincerely or out of anger."

"I said what I thought. Go buy the lamb quickly. I'll prepare the seasoning at home. We'll grill it when we get back. Grill it until it's sizzling and juicy."

Cheng Feng was completely confused. "Wife, what's wrong with you? I'm not used to you being like this. Who provoked you?"

"Your uncle."

"Uncle Ge has left, and the dancers in the mansion have also been sent away. What did your uncle do to you? Talk to me. If he is wrong, I will go and argue with him."

"Don't go looking for your uncle. I've seen through him. He's a lunatic. Go buy the sheep quickly. Don't keep me waiting too long."

"Wife, what's wrong? You're acting so weird. I'm really unsure."

"From now on, we can eat whatever we want. One bite is enough, and one bite is less."

Cheng Feng reached out and touched Shang Xi's head: "Wife, do I have a terminal illness that I don't even know about? You're going to make a roasted whole lamb for me, and I'm so panicked."

Shang Xi said quietly, "Eat. I don't think our heads will stay on our necks for long."

"What nonsense are you talking about? It's getting more and more outrageous."

"Well, your uncle is working at an iron mine, so I'm afraid we won't live long. We should just eat and drink and live one day at a time."

"That's it. Wife, you don't have to be so depressed. Uncle knows what's going on. He won't do anything without considering our lives."

"There is no such thing as an impenetrable wall. It's only a matter of time before we are discovered. Let's just wait for the consequences. We don't know whether we will be beheaded or cut in half. It's better to behead. It's more comfortable and less painful."

"Wife, why are you making it sound so scary? You said these things will not happen. If there was any danger, my uncle would have let us run away long ago."

"All under heaven belongs to the king, and all the people in the world are his subjects. Where are you going? I've figured it out. It's a fight anyway. Stop talking nonsense. Just buy the sheep if I tell you to."

"Then I'll go buy it now." Cheng Feng went to the city and bought a fat sheep. Then the two of them made a fire in their own yard and roasted the whole sheep.

The breeze blew gently, and the aroma of roasted lamb filled the air. Suiying, who had received the news a long time ago, paced back and forth in the room. Finally, he could no longer bear it and ran to Wan Lianxing, "My Lord, I have something important to report."

Wan Lianxing was playing chess with Huang Chenming. When he heard Suiying say this, he raised his eyelids and said, "You hardly left my sight all day. What important matter could you have?"

"My Lord, I really have something important to do."

"Do not listen."

"It's a very important matter."

"Do not listen."

"My Lord, it's about your nephew and his wife."

Wan Lianxing hit Suiying with his fan, "It's all your fault. You lost. What happened? Tell me."

Suiying said mysteriously, "Your nephew and his wife are eating alone in their own yard."

"Haha, there is such a thing? They are so lazy that they actually made a fire and cooked in their own yard? The sun is rising from the west."

"My Lord, do you know what they did in the yard?"

"If you want to eat, go eat. Don't keep circling around me. I'm almost dizzy from you. Otherwise, how could I lose this game of chess?" Wan Lianxing was collecting the chess pieces, preparing to play another game with Huang Chenming.

"My Lord, they are making roasted whole lamb in the yard."

"The young couple are making roasted whole lamb. We will be in for a treat then."

Suiying said, "What good fortune? The lamb is almost ready to be roasted, but they haven't sent anyone to invite you yet. I guess they've already eaten it and have forgotten about you."

"Not really. Even if you don't call me, the wind will bring the meat to me soon."

"I sent someone to take a sneak peek, and the sheep was already roasted."

"Why are you so greedy? You know exactly what the young couple eats in the yard. Can't they have a little bit of their own food?"

Sui Ying's eyes widened, "My Lord, it's not that I'm greedy, it's just that it's such a big fat sheep, the two of them can't finish it."

"If you want to eat, just say you want to eat. Why are you talking all this nonsense?"

Suiying said, "Let's go and take a look."

"If you leave without an invitation, how can I put my face down? Besides, I'm not greedy, it doesn't matter whether I eat or not."

"That won't work. The Marquis is the head of this mansion. If there is anything delicious here, the first bite should be given to the Marquis." Suiying snatched the jar containing chess pieces from Wan Lianxing's hand, "Let's go and take a look."

Wan Lianxing looked at Huang Chenming, "Let's go, let's go together, eat some mutton and come back."

Huang Chenming silently got up and went downstairs. Several people went all the way to Cheng Feng and Shang Xi's courtyard. They could smell the aroma of roasted lamb from a distance. Wan Lianxing smiled and said, "No wonder Suiying was so anxious. The smell of meat has aroused my appetite."

Several people walked into the yard without saying hello. Cheng Feng was rotating the rack of roasted whole lamb. His forehead was covered with sweat. Seeing Wan Lianxing, he grinned and said, "Uncle, you came at the right time. I was just about to call you."

Wan Lianxing said with a smile: "I heard from Suiying that you and Shang Xi were eating alone in the courtyard, and he insisted that I come to see you, so I had no choice but to come uninvited."

"Suiying, you are really good at exaggerating. This is my uncle. If it were someone else, he would have believed your lies."
