Chapter 212: Changing Faces
Qi Ning was shocked and thought that the mysterious gift outside was rumored to be the son-in-law of the Tian Mansion. Could it be that it was true? This mature and beautiful Mrs. Tian has been widowed for three years and cannot stand loneliness and want to find another man?
Mrs. Tian saw that Qi Ning's face looked surprised, and immediately realized that her white and tender cheeks turned red and full of charm. She hurriedly explained: "No, no, don't get me wrong, I mean..., Oh, Mr. Qi, since you are on stage to compete, you should have heard some rumors."
"What is Madam?"
"Some people say that the mysterious gift for fighting the ring is about to recruit a son-in-law in the Tian Mansion. Have you heard of it?" Mrs. Tian's beautiful eyes were like fog, and she looked at Qi Ning.
Qi Ning said: "Since this is a rumor, it will naturally not be true."
Mrs. Tian smiled and said, "Actually that's true."
"What?" Qi Ning was stunned and said in a daze: "Madam, is it...is the mysterious gift really... the son-in-law of Tianfu?"
"That's right." Mrs. Tian said frankly: "Since Mr. Qi is fighting on the ring, he should also know some of the situations in our Tian family. Our Tian family lacks male members and needs a man to support the family."
Qi Ning smiled bitterly and said, "In this way, is the madam... going to marry me?"
Mrs. Tian was stunned, then blushed and said, "Oh, what are you talking about? Who...who said she wanted to get married to you." She was very generous, but she was a little panicked at this moment.
Qi Ning was a little embarrassed, but said in surprise: "Didn't the lady say she wants to find a man who can support the family? Then...!"
"You misunderstood." Mrs. Tian hurriedly explained: "The Tian family recruits a son-in-law, not... it's not to be with me, it's to be my daughter. You want to be my son-in-law."
"Ah?" Qi Ning was stunned, then realized that he was embarrassed for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Madam, that... I'm really sorry, it's me who misunderstood, this...!"
Mrs. Tian had recovered at this time and said with a smile: "It's not a problem. I haven't explained it clearly, and I can't blame you for misunderstandings. Besides, I'm already old and old. After Fu'er's father left, I was determined to maintain the house, but I never thought about anything else." She giggled.
She is obviously a very smart woman. If she doesn't solve this misunderstanding and hide it, it will be even more embarrassing in the future. It's better to just explain it thoroughly, but she will appear generous.
Qi Ning looked at this mature beauty and smiled like a flower, thinking to herself that you are not old and beautiful. Even if you are not in your prime, you are at least a milf.
At this time, I also understood that after having a long time, the mysterious gift was really a son-in-law. I just wanted to marry the mature and beautiful Mrs. Tian, but her daughter.
No wonder Mrs. Tian stared at her for a long time after coming in, but it turned out that she was choosing a son-in-law for her daughter.
Although Mrs. Tian is a wife, Qi Ning is already looking at her with admiration. There is no doubt that this beautiful woman does have a very smart mind.
The so-called mysterious gift, the right to explain it was finally in the hands of Mrs. Tian. Although her ultimate goal was to choose a son-in-law, she left a hand.
Qi Ning even suspected that if the big black guy really won the final championship in the arena, the mysterious gift would probably not be a son-in-law. He had reason to believe that his age and appearance were indeed valued by Mrs. Tian, so Mrs. Tian told the mysterious gift that it was a son-in-law.
Setting up a arena to recruit a son-in-law, but she has another trick. Mrs. Tian is indeed smart enough.
At this time, Butler Tian had personally brought the tray in and served tea for Qi Ning first, and then he also put a tea cup next to Mrs. Tian.
However, when Mrs. Tian put down the teacup, Qi Ning heard a "ding" sound, not loud, but Qi Ning had a very good hearing and felt a little strange. She felt that when Mrs. Tian put down the teacup, it was like an empty teacup.
"Madam, the shopkeeper Liu from Babaotang just sent someone over here and asked us to send 100 kilograms of bitter wood and 100 kilograms of bamboo ru." Butler Tian approached Mrs. Tian and whispered: "Shopkeeper Liu asked someone to ask if the price is cheaper? If it is not cheaper, can he give him a few more kilograms."
Mrs. Tian immediately said: "I have been doing business for several years. The medicinal materials in our Tian family's medicine shop are really valuable and have fair prices. They must not be cheaper. He asked him to give him a few more kilograms of medicinal materials. Tell him that there is no extra, and a kilogram will not be enough."
"I understand, I know." Butler Tian agreed and was about to retreat, Mrs. Tian asked, "Go and let Fu'er come over and meet Mr. Qi."
After the housekeeper Tian left, Mrs. Tian smiled and said, "Young Master Qi, there is no way for me to set up a ring. If you want to find a man who supports the family, you can't find it casually. If you want to find a hero who is responsible, it's naturally better to have martial arts. Yes, you are a native of the capital, where do you live? After you go back, let your family come over and let's talk about the marriage."
She was very straightforward and neat.
At this time, Qi Ning also understood that Mrs. Tian chose her son-in-law and spent Zhou Zhang setting up a stage, with the intention of choosing a son-in-law with good martial arts skills.
He had already learned a little about the Tian family. Mrs. Tian's husband was killed by a robber three years ago and the case has not been solved yet. Mrs. Tian has been with her for several years and obviously felt it was too difficult, so she had to find a man to share some of the burden on her shoulders. If she really became the son-in-law of the Tian family, she naturally had to take into account the medicinal materials business of the Tian family and would inevitably go out to transport medicinal materials frequently.
With the lessons learned from the past, Mrs. Tian naturally felt that it would be safer to find a son-in-law who understands martial arts.
Qi Ning was just curious about coming over to see what the mysterious gift was. Of course, it was impossible to become the son-in-law of the Tian family. He smiled and said, "Madam is just a misunderstanding. In fact, I went on stage to compete, which is a misunderstanding, not really for the sake of competing with others."
Mrs. Tian was stunned, obviously not understanding: "Young Master Qi, what do you mean? I... I didn't understand."
"My wife wants to recruit a son-in-law, I'm afraid I'm not suitable." Qi Ning picked up the teacup and smiled: "And I never thought about getting married now."
When I opened the tea lid, the tea was obviously much better than the cup of tea in the main hall before, but only a few tea leaves were placed, and the water was very light. Qi Ning was stunned and felt a little amused. He thought that it was a bit shabby to entertain guests in Tian Mansion. Not to mention the coarse tea before, but now he finally got tea, but there were only a few tea leaves.
Mrs. Tian had a kind smile on her beautiful face, but her smile froze at first, then frowned and asked, "You didn't mean that you didn't agree to be my Tian family's son-in-law, did you?"
"Madam, although I am a little regretful, my wife has not heard it wrong." Qi Ning said: "Ling Ye and I have never met each other before, and we didn't even say a word. It was too hasty to decide on the marriage in such a hurry. And I also said that we have not planned to get married yet, so...!"
"So you think our Tian family's ring is a joke?" Mrs. Tian's pretty face fell down and said unhappy: "Young Master Qi, although Fu'er's father is gone, our Tian family has never lost trust. Even if it is an orphan and widowed mother, you will definitely do what you say. Since I have said everything, this marriage must be settled. Besides, it doesn't matter whether you have seen Fu'er and have spoken or not."
Mrs. Tian was still smiling like a flower before, but now she has changed her face. Although this is the case, she has a unique charm when she is angry.
Qi Ning knew that there was some trouble and could only say, "Mrs. Tian, even if it was mine this time, I apologize to you. But this marriage...!"
"No change!" Mrs. Tian insisted on the railway track: "Didn't you say you haven't seen Fu'er? I've asked someone to call her over and you can see her right away."
Qi Ning suddenly felt a headache. If he had known this was the case, he would not come to see the mysterious gifts no matter what he said.
Just as he was about to speak, he saw that Butler Tian had already rushed in and said, "Madam, Miss... Miss, she closed the door again, and I couldn't call it open."
Mrs. Tian frowned and thought for a while before saying, "I'll go in person." She twisted her waist and walked to the door, suddenly looked back at Qi Ning, waved to let Butler Tian approach, and whispered a few words in his ear. Butler Tian glanced at Qi Ning and nodded.
After Qi Ning waited for them to go out, he knew that it was not suitable to stay here for a long time, so he got up and was about to leave. Suddenly he caught a glimpse of Mrs. Tian's cup. Thinking of the strange sound just now, he saw no one around, and couldn't help but reach out to open the tea lid, glance inside, and laughed silently. The tea cup was empty, and there was not a drop of tea.
Although he was a little suspicious just now, he never expected that this would be true.
There is no doubt that when Mrs. Tian was treating guests, she not only had to serve tea to the guests, but also had to make a cup of tea. Qining knew that this was a kind of etiquette for treating guests.
But what does it mean to serve an empty cup?
Is Mrs. Tian not likes to drink tea? Or... Mrs. Tian is so stingy that she is unwilling to make a cup of tea for herself?
The Tian family is also a big drug dealer after all. Can’t even bear to give up a cup of tea?
Suddenly, he thought that he only took out a hundred taels of silver in the ring. He used bad tea to treat guests first. After finally getting a cup of good tea, he only put a few pieces of tea. Qi Ning was so amused that although Mrs. Tian was mature and beautiful, she was also a smart and capable woman, but she was afraid that she was a little stingy.
He knew that if Mrs. Tian came back, it would be a problem again. Taking advantage of her out, it was a great opportunity to leave quickly. He did not hesitate and quickly walked out. As soon as he walked out of the door, two or three servants had already snatched up from the side. One of them said: "Mr. Qi, Mrs. Qi, she will come back soon, you have a cup of tea and wait."
Qi Ning said, "I have something to do at home, so I will go back quickly. Your Madam Hotan said, I will come to visit you another day." Then he was about to leave, and the servant was already shouting, "Don't leave!" The three servants rushed over and blocked Qi Ning's way.
Qi Ning knew that this was Mrs. Tian’s order, and thought to herself that I didn’t want to get married. Could it be that your Tian family still have to force the marriage? She frowned and said, “Do not force me to do it now!”
A servant turned around and said, "Come on, he's going to run away!"
