The cannon fodder stepmother dressed as the villain Zai Zai

Xu Yaqin originally didn't want to be in the limelight at the lively banquet held by the Marquis of Qingdu.

But seeing this little kid acting coquettishly next to her, she really couldn't bear it, so she had to relax.

He knelt down and looked at Shengze with a soft look on his face.

"Okay, okay, then I'm going to be more respectful than obey your orders, and reluctantly accompany you to go crazy for once, young master."

Speaking of the banquet at the Qingdu Marquis' Mansion, this is an important political signal.

At that time, many famous nobles in and outside Yandu City will come to the Marquis's mansion as guests and have a drink together.

It doesn't stop there.

Maybe even His Majesty the Emperor and the Empress will come to visit in person.

Xu Yaqin didn't want anything to go wrong in such an occasion. She just wanted to eat and drink well and be an outsider with no burden.

Pot throwing competition...

Xu Yaqin was also somewhat interested now, and with this little brat fanning the flames, she was soft-hearted and agreed immediately.

The young master jumped even more when he saw that Xu Yaqin agreed to form a team with her to compete.

Running laps happily in the yard.

"Toss the pot, throw the pot!"

But Xu Yaqin is a newcomer after all. It wasn't long before she first came into contact with pot throwing, and this was just an accidental hit.

Not to mention that there are countless masters of Huhu throwing in Yandu City.

No matter how powerful Xu Yaqin is, she won't be able to win a good ranking in a team competition with this little guy.

Quan should be happy for this little guy and play with him.

Xu Yaqin thought it was harmless.

She looked up at Zhao Wuyang who was standing aside, smiled and said:
"Master Zhao, you are a master at throwing pot, and I am also a beginner. I would like to trouble you to give you some advice."

"After all, since participating in the competition, it represents the face of the Hou family. I can't embarrass the Marquis in front of so many guests, right?"

Zhao Wuyang thought that Mrs. Xu was humble at heart, but he didn't know that she was really a novice.

He waved his hands quickly and kept complimenting her.

"Madam, with your pot-throwing skills, it can be seen at a glance that you are definitely not a novice."

"If you take the young master with you to participate in the competition, there will be no difference."

Xu Yaqin smiled happily, and suddenly thought of another thing and asked him:

"Hey, Master Zhao, your pot throwing skills are so superb, why don't you form a team with the young master to compete? With Master Zhao here, our Marquis Mansion will definitely get a good ranking."

"No, Madam. This is such a huge event in the Marquis' Mansion. There are so many important people present. I'm just following along to join in the fun. I just have to be happy and enjoy myself."

"Besides, I'm also a marksman after all. It's no big deal when I play pot throwing all day long."

"Madam, if you really want to find a pot throwing expert, I would recommend you to find General Lu."

"His pot-throwing skills are outstanding. If you don't believe me, just ask the young master. I have competed with General Lu several times in the martial arts training ground, and he was always defeated."

"Oh, is Shengze like this?"

When Xu Yaqin heard this, she couldn't help but look stunned.

Her impression of Lu Jingming was that he was a sinister villain with great martial arts skills.

But I didn't expect that he has such a high skill in the pot throwing game. This is something I have never heard of and is a bit new.

The young master nodded his head and said:
"Well, that's right, that's right! General Lu is awesome."

Xu Yaqin really didn't expect that Lu Jingming had more hidden skills than she imagined.On a whim, she looked at the young master and asked seriously: "Then why don't you ask General Lu to teach you how to throw pot?"

When the young master mentioned this topic, he looked a little unhappy, folded his hands and pouted and said, "No, no, no."

Yes, seeing this posture, Qing Xinzhu knew that this little guy was not getting along with Lu Jingming, so she turned around and asked Zhao Wuyang about the situation.

Zhao Wuyang replied truthfully: "Mrs. Xu, you don't know something. Although General Lu Nu is good at throwing pots, he doesn't seem to want to participate in this banquet."

"Hey, why is this?"

Xu Yaqin felt a little puzzled after hearing this.

In her impression, Lu Jingming only wanted to climb up the ladder. He did a lot of things in the early stage, all because he wanted to look good in front of Sheng Lizuan, the Marquis of Qingdu.

Just to become famous.

How could you miss this great opportunity for a dinner party?

If you can be favored by His Majesty the Emperor for your pot-throwing skills, wouldn't it mean that your official career will be prosperous and you will be promoted step by step.

Zhao Wuyang's expression changed slightly and he said: "Well...Mrs. Xu may not know..."

"In previous years, General Lu would attend any large or small banquet in the Hou Mansion, but General Lu is also really worried in his heart, and there are some hidden things that he cannot express."

Xu Yaqin's interest became even more intense.

In her opinion, Lu Jingming had almost no flaws, except for being too utilitarian.

How could he still be worried about attending a small banquet?
This was really different from what I had in mind, so I immediately asked:
"Master Zhao, you might as well come and listen."

When Zhao Wuyang said this, his expression became a little difficult to understand. He organized his words, paused at the corner of his mouth, and then said in a deep voice:

"Every time General Lu shows up at a banquet, there are always those young ladies of the right age from famous families who will chase after him and they can't get rid of them."

"Whenever General Lu appears at any banquet, he will cause a sensation and become the focus of the crowd."

"This time there is a dinner held in the Marquis Mansion, and even His Majesty the Emperor will be present in person. General Lu doesn't want to cause too much commotion to avoid any trouble, and he doesn't want to join in the fun."

Well, Xu Yaqin thought there was some gossip.

It turns out that Lu Jingming is a narcissist to the extreme... Is he so confident in his own charm?

She then thought of the description in the original novel.

Lu Jingming, a scheming villain, is quite popular among the public, and has been very popular in books. He is very charming.

Moreover, the description of him in the novel is that of a cold-hearted, aloof and extremely handsome young man.

No wonder those wealthy ladies raised in boudoirs would flock to him.

After all, don’t women who are young and cute just look at their faces and figures?

Lu Jingming has both of these, and he is perfect in every aspect.

It is understandable to win the favor of these famous ladies.

But Xu Yaqin still doesn't understand one thing. Since Lu Jingming doesn't want to participate in the competition, what does it have to do with him teaching the young master how to throw pot?
Xu Yaqin finally got the answer at Zhao Wuchang.

It turned out that Lu Jingming had already taken the lead and was taken to teach hu by the second master.

This banquet is a major event in the Hou family, and Sheng Yue also wants to show off his talents, perform well at the banquet, and cheer up his eldest brother.

Only then did Xu Yaqin realize that there was no suitable candidate for this little guy, so he could only use Zhao Wuyang as the pot throwing master.

No wonder this little guy became depressed when he mentioned Lu Jingming. It turned out that he had not defeated the second master in the battle to steal people.

This little guy is very angry and is currently holding his breath.
