Kick out the general as soon as you are reborn

Liu Yanyan took it with a smile in her eyes and ate it in small bites.

Duke Liu looked at him and said, "Eat with big mouthfuls. You will be an official in the future. You can't be so quiet. You need to be a little free and easy."

Liu Yanyan then quickened her eating speed, but the elegance in her bones could not be faded, and she was pleasing to the eye no matter how you looked at her.

Duke Liu did not force it. After the meal, he asked Yuzhu and Yuzhen to help Liu Yanyan back to the courtyard. He then figured out by himself who to get the exam papers from previous years, as they were very popular now.

next day

After the court was dismissed, Duke Liu walked forward, and General Meng's voice came from behind, "Old Liu, wait for me!"

Duke Liu kept walking forward, waving his hand and saying, "I have something to do today, let's talk tomorrow." Then he chased after Cai Jijiu, "Jijiu, wait for me, wait for me, why are you walking so fast?"

General Meng followed behind curiously, wanting to see what Old Liu was going to do.

Cai Jijiu stopped helplessly, looked at the reckless man behind him, and the eyes of the people around him, and said helplessly, "Duke Liu, what do you want to call me for?"

Duke Liu smiled and said ingratiatingly, "Let's go out and talk about it. Let's go out and talk about it."

Cai Jijiu pulled him aside, afraid that people would gossip about him, and raised his voice and said, "Let's talk about it here. The Spring Examination is coming soon, and I'm still busy!"

Duke Liu was helpless and could only face the inquiring eyes beside him and said, "This is what I want. The Spring Examination papers of previous years. I don't know why my daughter suddenly needs to take the exam, so I came to find you."

Cai Jijiu breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Duke Liu speechlessly, "That's it! You scared me. I'll have someone send you to your house later. I thought you wanted to bribe me." So many people asked me for the test papers, but you mobilized a large force.

Duke Liu smiled and thanked him, "Thank you for the wine, the time is too short, I am afraid of delaying my daughter."

Cai Jijiu smiled and nodded, "I'll send it to you in a while." He really dotes on his daughter! Cai Jijiu turned and left.

General Meng put his arm around Duke Liu's shoulders and said, "Well, now we have the test papers. There are so many of them, enough for your daughter to do for a month."

Duke Liu nodded, looking worried, and followed her out. "I am worried. If she fails the exam, I am afraid she will lose confidence. After all, she just got divorced. If she passes the exam, I am afraid she will make mistakes and I will not be able to cover it."

General Meng looked at Lao Liu with a strange expression, "Do you hope that she will pass the exam or not?"

Duke Liu said helplessly with a bitter face, "I hope she can be herself. It doesn't matter whether she passes the exam or not. It's all right."

General Meng pulled him out and said, "Let's have a drink. It's been a while since we had a good drink together. You can't refuse today."

Duke Liu smiled bitterly and nodded, "Okay, let's go drink. Nannan is in the academy. I want to have a good drink with you today. Let's go to the Zhuangyuan Building to drink. It's my treat."

General Meng smiled and rubbed his hands, "Then I'll have a good meal."

Duke Liu nodded and said, "As much as you want, order whatever you want."

The two of them came to Zhuangyuan Building and went directly to the No. 1 private room. They did not notice that Gu Beichen was following them stealthily and opened the private room next door.

Gu Beichen felt bitter in his heart. Why did Liu Yanyan just say she didn't want him and then leave him? She could just throw him away like that. He was unwilling to accept that.

At this time, Duke Liu's voice sounded, "Serve the signature dish once again."

General Meng's rough voice sounded, "How expensive! No, no, no, we don't need so much! If you can't finish it, just drink two jars of wine."

Gu Beichen continued listening while gritting his teeth. This old man was so nice to outsiders but very stingy to himself.

Duke Liu said proudly, "How can I let you down by being with me? Eat as much as you want."

General Meng smiled evilly and said, "Okay, I'll eat as much as I want. Don't feel bad."

"How could I feel bad? Eat more. This signature dish is delicious. This is the donkey meat that was just sliced. It's very tender."

General Meng picked up the chopsticks, picked up the donkey meat, put it in the antique soup, took it out and dipped it in the dipping sauce. He took a bite and exclaimed, "Delicious, delicious, this tastes amazing."

Duke Liu took a sip of wine, frowned, and took a deep breath, "Eat more. There are abalone, sea cucumber, and venison here. Eat more. They are all fresh."

While eating, General Meng picked up a piece of donkey meat for Duke Liu and said, "You eat it too. It's not good for me to eat it alone!"

Duke Liu finished his drink, picked up the donkey meat and took a bite. "Nannan has grown up and has her own ideas. I don't know how long I can protect her. I'm afraid I'll be too old to protect her."

General Meng put down his chopsticks and said, "Don't think too much. Didn't the Wang family's daughter pass the exam? She's a minor official, nothing will go wrong. You, you're just worrying about nothing. Your daughter hasn't even taken the Spring Examination yet! What are you afraid of? She'll be a minor official after she passes the exam. If you want to make a big mistake, you have to climb up first!"

Duke Liu took a sip of wine and sighed, "That's true. I really hope she doesn't grow up so I can protect her for the rest of her life."

General Meng's cheek twitched, "Don't think about it, eat vegetables, there is no child who doesn't grow up, my daughters are all married, I don't know if I will live, they are all like you."

Duke Liu asked doubtfully, "Aren't you worried that your daughters are being bullied? My daughters are all divorced."

General Meng drank a glass of wine, put down the glass in his hand and said with a smile, "It's okay, I'm not afraid. Their husbands are very timid. I go over from time to time, or I let my son go over. The little maids are also worthy of practicing martial arts. Although my daughters look weak, they have actually learned martial arts from me. I'm just afraid that they will accidentally cripple their husbands."

Duke Liu said sternly, "Why didn't you tell me that my daughter was badly bullied by the general's mansion?"

General Meng looked helpless. "I secretly told you before to let your daughter learn martial arts, but you didn't want her to learn because you felt bad for her. Now you're talking about me. You didn't even send a few guards to her when she got married, and you didn't even go over to see her more often. How can you blame me?"

Duke Liu recalled that this had indeed happened before, and his face turned red as he said, "I wronged you. I just felt sorry for her at the time, but who knew that I ended up hurting her instead."

When Gu Beichen heard this, he muttered in his heart, how could he possibly let her suffer any injustice? It was just taking a concubine, how could it be considered a injustice? If she insisted on getting a divorce, it must be because Duke Liu had not taught her well.

General Meng smiled and said, "It's good to get a divorce. My daughter must not be wronged. It's not like we can't afford to support her. Why should she be wronged? Why not find a live-in son-in-law and hold his indenture contract so that he can't cause any trouble?"

Duke Liu shook his head and took a sip of wine. "Nannan just got divorced. I won't force her. If she doesn't like anyone, I can support her for the rest of her life."

General Meng smiled and said, "You! You just love your daughters too much. I don't mind my daughters no matter where they are. Before they got married, my wife hired a nanny to teach them. Those guys treat them like babies. It's just that they act gentle, and I, as a father, am not used to it."

Duke Liu said, "You are going to fight and have no time to see them, what should I do?"

General Meng drank and said, "Their brothers are not vegetarians. Besides, my wife is here. Even if they are combined, they can't beat my wife."

Duke Liu looked at General Meng and laughed so hard that he fell backwards. "Isn't your wife famous for her gentleness? Why isn't she gentle now?"

General Meng subconsciously looked at the door, and when he saw that there was no one there, he said, "Gentleness is just beginning to be pretended. Gentleness has nothing to do with my wife, but martial arts is okay."
