Wang Zi'an didn't doubt it either. After all, the Hou Mansion was now almost under Li Shimin's nose. Drinking with him was like a visit. If concealment was not considered, he could go out without taking a car.
"We just arrived not long ago, so we haven't had time to do anything—"
Wang Zi'an made random gestures while handling the mutton in his hands.
"You guys are here, just in time to lend a hand. I haven't stayed here for several days. Wipe the tables, chairs and benches, wash the dishes, chopsticks and cups, and sweep the floor. Well, Lao Cheng, I asked you.
Is Lao Cheng okay? My father-in-law is a bit busy and tends to get messy..."
Cheng Yaojin and Li Shimin:...
Why do I want to beat him so much after hearing this!
"Then what are you going to call him-"
Cheng Yaojin pointed at Li Shimin and stared at Wang Zi'an with an unkind expression.
If this bitch calls himself Lao Cheng or your Majesty's father-in-law, you will fight him!
Wang Zi'an was stunned when he heard this and looked at him strangely.
"Of course my name is Lao Li, otherwise we won't get along?"
That's it——
Cheng Yaojin was still a little angry at first, but he suddenly felt much better.
"Okay, let's go with Old Cheng and Old Li. It sounds smooth and comfortable to listen to. Anyway, Old Li and I don't care about those people who are hypocritical - right, Old Li?"
Lao Cheng nodded happily to Wang Zi'an.
We act like we have a good relationship and can talk about anything easily.
Li Shimin:......
You old man, you've gone too far——
But, what else can be done?
Li Shimin nodded dully. It was such a loss. After marrying off a daughter, he lost even the title of father-in-law.
Ah, so easy to talk——
Wang Zi'an was a little surprised. His favorability towards Cheng Yaojin and Li Shimin instantly reached 2
He had no choice but to let the two father-in-laws stay together every day.
I can't call my father-in-law and still have my last name.
Hello, father-in-law of the Cheng family, father-in-law of the Li family, please sit over here——
It also sounds a little weird.
"Okay, Lao Cheng, how's your recent Thirty-Six Tiangang Ax training going?"
When Cheng Yaojin heard this, he straightened up immediately and couldn't hide the proud look on his face.
"It's not bad - a few days ago, I just made a small breakthrough, so-so, first-class peak military general -"
hiss--
Li Shimin, Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji and others all took a breath of cold air.
Li Shimin, in particular, was surprised and happy. His eyes shone when he looked at Cheng Yaojin.
This piece of shit like Lao Cheng is already a first-rate military general who doesn’t even hum or laugh, right?
Hearing this, Wang Zi'an nodded somewhat unexpectedly.
"Well, that's great. I see there's no - there's an ax behind the door. Go chop some firewood. We just don't have enough firewood at home -"
Cheng Yaojin:......
Ah - Emotion, you taught us these thirty-six Tiangang axes, just to let us chop firewood for your home?
As he watched, the smile on Cheng Yaojin's face gradually froze. Li Shimin, Wei Zheng and others couldn't help laughing and joking.
"Old Cheng, go quickly, go quickly - the Thirty-Six Tiangang Axes are extremely powerful and are perfect for chopping firewood -"
Cheng Yaojin:......
This is too much. If you laugh again, believe it or not, I will fall out——
Cheng Yaojin cursed and went to chop wood with an ax.
"Lao Li, you can go pick some more vegetables in the greenhouse - pick less, there really won't be much left. If you don't cherish it, you won't be able to eat until the end of the year -"
As soon as he finished explaining, Wang Zi'an quickly added another sentence.
Ever since I got acquainted with these two scammers, Lao Li and Lao Cheng, the amount of vegetables in my greenhouse has been decreasing.
Fortunately, I have two more daughters-in-law, otherwise I would have suffered a huge loss.
I like this life!
Li Shimin said nothing and went to pick vegetables happily.
"Lao Fang, Lao Wei, you two don't know how to do anything, just wash the dishes and clean the house——"
Before leaving the house, Li Shimin gave him a very considerate word of care.
Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng:...
But, what else can I do——
Do it!
The old rule is that the side dishes are stir-fried first, the onion-flavored grilled lamb chops are served first, and the other meats and lamb chops are simmered over high heat, then you can start drinking.
"Zian's craftsmanship is simply unparalleled in the world. I can't get enough of just this side dish—"
Li Shimin put a chopstick of scrambled eggs with chives into his mouth with a satisfied look on his face.
The eggs are tender and soft, and the leeks are green and fragrant. If the heat is too high, it is too old, and if it is too low, it is not enough. It perfectly combines the fragrance of the leeks with the freshness of the eggs.
"Nonsense, don't look at whose son-in-law that is—"
Cheng Yaojin patted his chest proudly and glanced at Li Shimin.
Li Shimin smiled and nodded.
"There is some truth in what you say -"
Cheng Yaojin:......
Ah, this——
It's really annoying.
It was obviously my daughter who hit it first, but half of it was taken away by this dog emperor——
Wang Zi'an felt that such an atmosphere was very good, and he happily smoothed things over.
"You both have a point—"
Everyone:…
shameless!
However, after such a fuss, the atmosphere at the wine table suddenly became much happier.
"Zian, Your Majesty has left the matter of Duke Cai to me - you have many ideas, tell me what should I do?"
Taking advantage of the opportunity to talk, Cheng Yaojin asked while pretending to be chatting while picking up vegetables.
Wang Zi'an was holding the vegetables, his hand movements slightly paused, and he didn't even raise his head.
"What should we do? What else can we do? Of course we must do it violently and boldly. In short, it is reckless - I know you are good at doing this -"
Cheng Yaojin:......
What is this? I am good at it!
But now is the time to ask this bitch for advice. You can't argue with him about this.
Cheng Yaojin coughed dryly and pretended not to hear the teasing in Wang Zi'an's words, nor to see the teasing in the eyes of Li Shimin, Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji and others.
"Reckless—cough, taking such drastic action? It's not appropriate, after all. After all, Cai Guogong is a servant of the court and an important minister of the country. If this kind of thing spreads, I'm afraid the court's face will look a little ugly—"
Cheng Yaojin sighed helplessly. He really didn't want to take this job. He had to worry about this and that, so he couldn't let go.
The other big guys couldn't help but slow down their chopsticks subconsciously, and secretly glanced at Wang Zi'an with their eyes.
Even the prime minister dares to poison, so where should the court put its face——
Wang Zi'an raised his head in surprise and looked at Cheng Yaojin like a fool.
"What do you mean, it sounds like family scandals should not be made public?"
Cheng Yaojin nodded somewhat depressedly.
"That's probably what His Majesty and the other ministers meant - after all, this kind of thing is really unsightly. If word spread, it might affect the court's prestige -"
Wang Zi'an couldn't help but be speechless for a while.
"Are our majesty and ministers fools? What kind of bullshit logic is this-"
Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji, Wei Zheng:...
Several people almost choked at Wang Zi'an's words.
What a dog, how can you talk——
"Zian, how do you say this? Are your Majesty and the other ministers thinking of something wrong?"
