Chapter 152 Daddy Hugs
Dujuan couldn't sit still and fell off the chair.
How much silver do two maids cost? How much silver do a carriage and a coachman cost? Is Shen Lianzhi stupid?
Shen Lianzhi was certainly not stupid, but he was embarrassed to say no. He thought that they still had a lot of money, so he could still buy it if he gritted his teeth.
As for money, you can still earn more.
But Old Man Shen just wanted to watch the fun and didn't mind the big deal:
"Du Juan, your health is too poor. You can't even stand a chair without falling off. How long are you going to pester my son? Lian Zhi is an official now. You are not of a good status. It's not convenient for two grown men to stay in our house. Why don't you go back first?"
Before Du Juan could speak, Shen Lianzhi hurriedly coaxed her:
"Dad, don't say such things anymore. Dujuan is a very nice person, and I've already decided on her."
A tired smile appeared on Dujuan's lips. Shen Lianzhi didn't take it seriously when he saw Dujuan smiling.
Unexpectedly, that night, Dujuan ran away with all the silver and valuables.
"Finally I left, otherwise I would have had to rely on you."
When he learned that Dujuan had left, Old Man Shen didn't take it seriously at all. He said that she should have left a long time ago and was like a dog-skin plaster that couldn't be driven away.
"Dad, she also took all our silver!"
Shen Lianzhi's face was pale, and he couldn't believe that Du Juan had done this.
"What! What did you say? Why did you put all the money on her? Oh my God! Isn't this going to kill us?"
Old Man Shen's eyes suddenly turned red with anxiety.
"What are you still standing there for? Report him to the police and have him arrested! Oh my! How dare she do that to such a large sum of money!"
When Old Man Shen thought about it, his heart ached. He had never seen so much silver before.
"Report to the police? How do you report to the police?"
Shen Lianzhi was a little embarrassed to say that most of this money was earned by Du Juan from business.
"Just say your mistress stole the money and ran away."
Even at this time, Old Man Shen was unwilling to let a woman like Du Juan enter his house. She was not worthy of him.
"But the money was earned by Dujuan."
This sentence made Old Man Shen lose his temper, and he trembled and said:
"Isn't it your salary? How did it become her money?"
Shen Lianzhi was now in a state of confusion and spoke impatiently:
"Although I have passed the imperial examination, there has been no further news. I have no money to ask for help, so I can only stay at home. Where will the salary come from?"
Only then did Old Man Shen realize that although his son had passed the imperial examination, he had not yet become an official.
"No, that's impossible. After studying so hard for decades, how can you pass the imperial examination and not become an official? No, Dad will help you find one."
With that, Old Man Shen rushed out angrily. He didn't know where to look, so he went straight to the largest yamen.
He rushed to the Ministry of Justice and said he wanted to file a complaint with the emperor.
When the people from the Ministry of Justice heard about this, they immediately called the person in charge.
He was sleeping at home when he heard that someone was going to sue him, so he ran over anxiously.
Suddenly, he became angry and said to Father Shen:
"You can only target an official position if there's a vacancy. I can't apply for a new position for your son. I've heard everything you said and will definitely keep an eye on you."
"Thank you, Mr. Qingtian!"
Old Man Shen thought he had accomplished something and went back happily.
After talking to Shen Lianzhi about this, Shen Lianzhi felt that this was a good thing as he finally didn't have to worry about this matter anymore.
The next day, the transfer order for him came down.
He was going to be a county magistrate in a remote and cold place, a place that Old Man Shen had never even heard of.
Shen Lianzhi was quite happy, as he had become a county magistrate, and he was still as domineering as ever.
Old Man Shen happily went out to treat people to a drink, saying that his son was going to be a county magistrate.
After hearing the place, those people showed an unknown smile on their faces and congratulated him.
It was so joyful for Old Man Shen.
When they arrived at the place, they were dumbfounded.
It was a vast expanse of white, with snow-capped mountains everywhere. The county government office was leaking everywhere and there was no one there.
He is said to be a county magistrate, but he looks even worse than the village chief.
"Tangning!"
Shen Lianzhi roared, this must be Tang Ning's doing.
Tang Ning felt an inexplicable itch in her ears. She probably didn't take it seriously because Gu Mujun scolded her in the palace. Anyway, she liked being scolded every day. When she was in the Shen family, those people in the Shen family scolded her every day, but she didn't lose a single bit of weight.
After leaving the capital, Tang Ning and Gu Mufeng asked the coachman to drive the carriage along another route and lead everyone away.
After all the pursuers have left.
The two of them found a small hill and hid in the space with the child in their arms.
Looking at the real Song Nuannuan teasing the child, Gu Mufeng always had an indescribable feeling.
He felt that his royal brother was so pitiful. He must learn a lesson and not follow his royal brother's old path, otherwise he would probably be even worse off than his royal brother.
"Why don't you treat your two children so well?"
"I'm very nice to them, too. Am I not nice to them?"
Tangning wondered if she hadn't been good to Zhenzhu and Mingzhu. It was just that Song Shi was younger, so she always held her more.
"It just feels a little off. Even though we seem very close, there's always a sense of distance."
Gu Mufeng's words made Tang Ning reflect on herself. Did she really treat him differently?
No? Those two are so big, I can't even hold them.
As they were talking, several people came into the house and saw Yuanbao playing hide-and-seek with the two little ones.
Seeing Tang Ning and the others coming back, Yuanbao looked behind them eagerly, but there was no familiar figure there, so he lowered his head in dejection.
Tangning didn't notice any of this and shared the gifts she brought back with the two little ones.
Look at the two little ones looking at me with longing, as if they are expecting me to hold them.
Tangning opened her arms carelessly.
"Come, come, let daddy hug you!"
The two little guys awkwardly rushed into Tang Ning's arms. Gu Mufeng's face darkened. What kind of names were these? How could you educate children like this?
"Don't talk nonsense, call me mother, I will be your father from now on."
Mingzhu blinked her eyes at the handsome daddy who suddenly appeared, then turned to look at Tangning.
"No, mother is the father!"
"That's right, who are you? Do you want to be a father directly?"
Tang Ning protected Mingzhu and glared at Gu Mufeng. If he wanted to become her father right away, he had to see if the three of them agreed.
"Ningning, have you noticed that your child is a little confused about gender? You're not doing this right."
Tang Ning also realized that she seemed to have done something wrong, and wondered if the child she taught had gender confusion.
She quickly squatted down and said to the two children earnestly:
"Baby, mom is a girl, so you can only call me mom from now on, okay? This is your new daddy, and you will have a daddy from now on."
