Later, Old Lady Lin arranged for Cheng Erping to marry Ru Yu Niang. Mrs. Zhang and others sincerely blessed them, but at the same time they couldn't help wondering whether Cheng Wan would disagree after he came back.

To this day, Cheng Wan was conferred the title of marquis, and Old Lady Lin and Wang were granted imperial decrees.

Mrs. Zhang and the others actually had a secret expectation in their hearts, hoping that Cheng Wan would feel that the Ru family was too low in status and would find a marriage for Cheng Erping that was equally suitable.

Mrs. Zhang and others did not think that Ru Yu Niang was a bad person. They just felt that the Ru family was also an ordinary family, and there was a huge gap between them and the current Cheng family. Their own children were not good enough, so why was Ru Yu Niang so lucky?

Until just now, Cheng Wan's actions shattered the unspeakable thoughts in the hearts of Zhang Pozi and others, and Zhang Pozi and others couldn't stop feeling sour in their hearts.

Of course, their jealousy is directed at Ru Yu Niang and the Ru family. As for the Cheng family, they all sincerely hope for the best.

"Mom, I want to eat that."

"it is good."

Mao Ruochun used a serving chopstick to pick up the dish that Xu Zhishu wanted to eat, and then looked calmly at Xu Zhinian who was chatting and laughing with Cheng Wan.

After seeing with her own eyes the attitude of the Cheng family towards Ru Yu Niang and hearing with her own ears what Cheng Wan said to Ru Yu Niang, Mao Ruochun suddenly thought of what she and Xu Zhuocheng "eavesdropped" on that day, that Xu Zhinian was planning to use her love for Cheng Daping to avoid the marriage proposal.

Mao Ruochun lowered his eyelids. Wasn't he worried that his daughter wouldn't be able to marry into a good family and would suffer and live an unhappy life?

Today, the Cheng family has become a noble family and is thriving. Each member of the Cheng family is more upright and easy to get along with than the other. Daping is a handsome and motivated child, and he has a bright future.

Especially since the head of the Cheng family and his daughter are close friends who couldn’t be better.

If Daping can come back safely and the two children don't dislike each other, the Cheng family might really be a good choice for marriage.

Mao Ruochun kept this thought in mind for the time being, without revealing what she was thinking on her face.

Xu Zhinian didn't know that her mother had already thought of marrying into the Cheng family. At this moment, she was telling Cheng Wan that she wanted to sleep with Cheng Wan today.

Cheng Wan naturally agreed to this.

They were all family, and the Cheng family never had a rule of not talking while eating, so everyone was talking and laughing at the dinner table, and it was very lively.

Cheng Wan had been holding it in all the way, and now she finally had the time and opportunity to show off to Old Lady Lin and others that she had visited the palace.

"The palace must be huge, right?!"

"Is the floor of the palace paved with gold?!"

"Have you seen the Concubine?!"

......

The questions asked by Old Lady Lin and others were varied and there were too many of them.

Cheng Wan started talking from the moment she entered the palace, and went all the way to when the Emperor transferred her to the Ministry of Personnel and asked her to return to Liangzhou to do work. She was so excited when she talked that she even forgot to eat.

Of course, there are some things that cannot be discussed.

For example, the conversation between the late emperor and the new emperor in the Xuanzheng Hall.

The amount of information was too much. Old Lady Lin and the others stared, trying to digest everything they heard quickly.

"You... you dare to borrow money from the emperor?!!!"

Old Lady Lin slapped Cheng Wan on the back, with a look of fear on her face: "Why are you so fierce, kid? He's the emperor! Why don't you borrow money from anyone else but the emperor!"

"That's right, Ah Wan, you are so brave! Fortunately, the emperor has a good temper. Not only is he not angry, he also promised to help you get the house and the shop. You must never do this again in the future!"

Wang also touched Cheng Wan's head in fear, as if to confirm that her daughter's head was still there.

Almost everyone present looked at Cheng Wan as if he were a god, and sincerely advised Cheng Wan not to be so bold in the future.

What if the emperor is angered?

After all, he is the supreme emperor.

But there are exceptions.

Cheng Xiaoyu looked around, looking at Cheng Wan who was "buried" by the worried and fearful eyes of Old Lady Lin and others, with a strange look on her face: "Grandma, are you teaching me how to be an official?"

Mrs. Lin and the others suddenly quieted down.

"My eldest sister has been conferred the title of marquis, and she has also earned imperial decrees for Grandma and Mother. My eldest sister must know best how to be an official and how to talk to the Emperor."

No one spoke.

Mrs. Lin and the others suddenly felt their brains clear.

Cheng Wan was surprised by Cheng Xiaoyu's words, but she also knew that the reactions of Old Lady Lin and others were normal, so she smiled and said, "I didn't know I was conferred a title of nobility before. I thought that an eighth-rank official was nothing in the capital. If I don't buy a house and a shop soon, I will probably not be able to buy anything good when I return to the capital. This is a special case, and it will definitely not happen again in the future. Don't worry."

What Cheng Wan didn't say was that except for some special occasions that she could participate in with her status as a marquis, as an eighth-rank official, she didn't know how many times she would be able to see the emperor in the future, let alone borrow money from the emperor.

"Cough." Cheng Daniu coughed, "Eat, eat, the food is cold."

Everyone tacitly avoided the topic, but couldn't help but sigh in their hearts.

It turns out that not everyone can be this official.

If they were placed in front of the emperor, and could speak to him smoothly, it would be enough for them to brag about for the rest of their lives.

As for asking the emperor for money?

Even if they were dying of poverty or starvation, they probably wouldn't have the courage to ask for it.

Fifteen minutes later, Cheng Wan saw that everyone had almost finished eating, so he wiped his mouth with a handkerchief and started talking about business.

"The Emperor's coronation ceremony will be on September 1st. Today is August 4th. A banquet will be held in the village the day after tomorrow, August 7th. I need to set off to return to the capital on the second day after the banquet, which is August 8th."

Any later and time will be tight.

The smiles on everyone's faces slowly froze.

"I need to complete the tasks assigned by the emperor in the next few days. Dad, we need to spend money and invite guests for the banquet the day after tomorrow. We need to prepare 100 tables. If there is any leftover, we will distribute it directly to the villagers.

Also, prepare the things for visiting the grave in advance, and say goodbye to my grandfather before you leave."

"Okay!" Cheng Daniu nodded seriously.

"Chen Changtong."

"Ah?" Chen Changtong was listening to Cheng Wan's speech attentively, and was suddenly called out and was startled.

"Help my father and his family to host this banquet. If you do a good job, the position of housekeeper of Zhaoping Marquis Mansion will be yours in the future."

Cheng Wan didn't care whether Chen Changtong had been exposed to these things before. She gave him a chance. It depended on Chen Changtong himself whether he could seize it.

Chen Changtong stood up, pinched his legs which were shaking from excitement, and said in a loud voice: "Yes!"

Lin Gou Wa was also very happy for Chen Changtong, but what he was most concerned about at this time was whether Old Lady Lin would go to the capital.

"Grandma, are you going to the capital with me?"

Old Mrs. Lin originally lived with the first wife, but in order to give her more choices, Cheng Wan still asked one more question.

"Go! I will definitely go with you!"

Mrs. Lin answered with a firm voice.

Lin Gou Wa's eyes lit up, and after looking at Chen Changtong, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
