girl, you're wrong

Chapter 373 Return to Beijing
"so much?"

In Jingkou, Cheng Jinyang was also taken aback when he saw the list of supplies sent by the Li family in Longxi.

In fact, the quantity of materials delivered is about three times the original purchase quantity, and the excess is obviously free.

Is it a hush money?Although I generously stated that I would not pursue it, but the Li family in Longxi is a family with five surnames after all, and it is embarrassing, so this is used as compensation for me?

Hahaha, this is really a surprise.

Of course, Cheng Jinyang will never admit that the plan he came up with on the brain is actually to make profits by touching porcelain.

After all, I was indeed captured by that Li Jingai, shouldn't I be charged some mental damage fees?
Also, I helped the Li family in Longxi to discover a talented clan member with super potential.If it weren't for me, where would Mr. Li still be abusing himself now!

Now that Mr. Li has a family status, the Li family in Longxi has a third-rank guarantee for the future, and Li Xuansheng has an additional adopted daughter, isn't this something that everyone is happy about?Without me, where would you get these benefits?

Hey, wait, I thought triple was exaggerating anyway.But think about it...

Could it be the dowry prepared by Li Xuansheng for Li Qingwan?
It can't really be a dowry, can it? !
Cheng Jinyang thought about it so far, so he found Li Qingwan who was escorting the supplies, pretending to be puzzled, and asked her why there were so many supplies this time, and whether she had made a mistake.

"It's the dowry." Li Qingwan said with a smile.

Cheng Jinyang: ! ! !

"Haha, I'm just kidding." Seeing him stupefied with fright, Li Qingwan stuck out her tongue, smiled embarrassedly and said, "It's your father's compensation, after all, you were arrested and sent to prison. He hopes that you will not hate my two useless brothers and sisters because of this."

As soon as he recognized his adoptive father on the front foot, his brother and sister called out on his back foot?Cheng Jinyang was a little speechless and waved his hands:
"Cough, it's okay, I don't mind. Besides, don't you know it too (we calculated them first)."

"En." Li Qingwan nodded, "There is one more thing. Father sent some potential clansmen to Jingkou to join the Beifu Army."

"Join the Beifu Army?" Cheng Jinyang asked in surprise.

Joining the Beifu army and joining the shogunate of his commander-in-chief are completely different things.

The latter is a personal contribution. For example, Wang Changshi and Master Xie, even if they come from the family's high-level orders, it can only mean that they have joined Cheng Jinyang's camp, and have nothing to do with Wang and Xie.

However, Li Xuansheng's letting his clansmen join the Beifu Army was the investment of the Longxi Li family in the Beifu Army. The courage and motivation behind this decision alone cannot be underestimated.

"Yeah." Li Qingwan nodded and said, "Like everyone else, I also told my father about my expectations for this war."

"Father thought my analysis made sense, so he sent some clansmen over to prevent any changes in Jiankang."

Cheng Jinyang looked at the list of personnel. This time, the Longxi Li family sent 167 people, mainly of the eighth and seventh ranks, and the number was slightly smaller than that of the Hejian Xing family.

But it is far more than the Yangzhai Chu family.In a sense, Li Xuansheng's trust in this newly recognized daughter was much greater than Chu Jiye's trust in Chu Qingqing.

"Then let Wang Changshi resettle these clansmen first." Cheng Jinyang replied.

"My father also came along." Li Qingwan said.

"Your patriarch is here?" Cheng Jinyang was startled at first, and then realized that he was talking about her biological father.

"En." Li Qingwan rubbed the center of her brows in annoyance, "I'm still thinking, if I don't go home at night, how should I explain it to him better."

This is indeed a problem.After all, Jingkou Town is not big, not as big as Jiankang City.Even though the distance is not far away, but the daughter doesn't come home every night, the father-in-law must be suspicious.

"Then how about this?" Cheng Jinyang pondered for a long time, and said hesitantly, "I will arrange a military post for my father-in-law, so that he will travel frequently and have no time to return home, so we can hide it temporarily?"

"Father-in-law?" Li Qingwan frowned.

"Ah! Bah! I made a slip of the tongue, I'm sorry." Cheng Jinyang changed the subject in a panic, "You understand what I mean, although it's a little hard to explain to him, but it's better than him being entangled with where you live every night."

"That's the only way to go." Li Qingwan nodded in agreement.

After Cheng Jinyang tactfully left, she stood up slowly, went to the bathroom to wash her face with water, then stared blankly at her own face in the mirror.

Cheng Jinyang left the port warehouse and went back to the Admiral's Mansion, where he met Xing Yuanzhi at the door of the office.

"Jinyang." Xing Yuanzhi said solemnly, "My dad just came from Jiankang City and said he wanted to visit me. I won't stay here tonight."

"Oh, where does father-in-law plan to live..." Cheng Jinyang asked subconsciously, and then he realized that he was talking fast again.

"Let's find a hotel nearby first." Xing Yuanzhi blushed slightly, but he didn't protest, "Actually, it's okay for one night, the problem is that I want to keep him, after all, Jiankang City is coming... you know."

"Hmm." Cheng Jinyang thought, isn't this the same problem as Teacher Li?It is not a problem for the father-in-law and mother-in-law to deal with them one by one. After all, we must come up with an effective and perfect plan.

"Yuan Zhi, how far is your blood concentration from the fifth grade?" He asked seriously.

"About [-] to [-] horses." Xing Yuanzhi thought for a while and said, "It's only about today or tomorrow."

"Let's all get promoted to the fifth rank as soon as possible." Cheng Jinyang said solemnly, "Then we will announce this secret to our respective families in exchange for their trust and support for our cohabitation. After all, they will all rush to gather together It’s in Jingkou Town.”

"Shall we tell them the truth?" Xing Yuanzhi asked in astonishment, "Jinyang, the more people know, the faster this secret will be exposed..."

"That's right, that's why we have to wait for all members of the fifth rank." Cheng Jinyang said in a deep voice, "The fifth rank is the threshold for the qualitative change of supernatural powers, and it is also the basis for us to obtain independent political status. Eight fifth rank supernatural beings join forces to form Taiwan. The city can't easily attack us. In addition, I will ask Yu Jingsan tonight about how to quickly promote from the fifth rank to the fourth rank."

"En." Xing Yuanzhi couldn't think of any objection for a while, but finally reminded, "Jinyang, we should discuss it with Miss Wang. Although she doesn't speak very nicely, she is still willing to help in this regard."

"Wanrou?" Cheng Jinyang said worriedly, "I'm not afraid that she will object, it's just... what if she says she can tell the truth, but the premise is to put a stamp on your family?"

"Put down the steel seal..." Xing Yuanzhi was momentarily speechless.

"Forget it, let's talk about upgrading to the fifth rank first." Cheng Jinyang waved his hand, "Don't worry, I won't make a decision lightly before reaching a consensus."

"En." Xing Yuanzhi stood up, "Then I'll go first."

"Okay." Cheng Jinyang said.

However, Xing Yuanzhi did not leave immediately, but looked at Cheng Jinyang hesitantly.There seemed to be a layer of mist suddenly covering her particularly large bright eyes.

"What's wrong?" Cheng Jinyang asked in surprise.

"It's okay." Xing Yuanzhi finally made up his mind and came over to hug him tightly.

The strength of her hug was so tight that Cheng Jinyang seemed to have the illusion of being "hugged and killed" by her.

However, Ah Zhi buried her head in his chest again, at such a close distance, Cheng Jinyang could even see her eyelashes trembling slightly, and forgot to struggle for a moment.

After all, with Ah Zhi's obsessive cleanliness, she is willing to have such intimate contact with her, so one can imagine how much determination and effort she put in.

"That's it." Xing Yuanzhi finally let go of him, his face was as red as a ripe persimmon.She turned around in a hurry to prevent Cheng Jinyang from seeing her face, and preached with a serious expression:
"When I'm not around, sleep carefully! Don't be taken advantage of by other girls, you know?"

"……Oh."

"Is that your tone of reluctance?"

"No." Cheng Jinyang laughed softly, "I'm just a little surprised..."

"...to see you who are so frank."
