The foolish king's contract princess

Chapter 241 An Unusual Banquet ([-])

An Zixing arrived at An Mansion at ten o'clock in the evening, and after greeting the others, he went to Nan Mengjie's room.

"Why is it so late?" Nan Mengjie said while pouring a glass of water for An Zixing.

"Something went wrong on the road, and there was a robber," An Zixing took the water glass and explained.

"Robbery? There are robbers in broad daylight, who is not afraid of death, dare to rob you," Nan Mengjie was surprised after hearing this.

"It's not that scary, it's just some villagers who can't live on. If you scare them, they'll be fine," An Zhixing said simply.

"Villagers? It's not that simple. Even if life is hard, they don't dare to rob in broad daylight," Nan Mengjie didn't want to believe that the villagers had the courage to rob in broad daylight.

"Really, it's just some ignorant villagers," An Zixing smiled and looked at Nan Mengjie.

"Not sensible? Little Xingxing, you have learned to lie to me after only a few days of seeing her. It seems that her skin is itchy," Nan Mengjie looked at An Zhixing and said calmly, without any anger.

"Sister, I've grown up, I'll take care of these small things, don't worry," An Zhixing changed the subject.

"What needs you to deal with for half a day?" Nan Mengjie didn't believe it was a trivial matter.

Although Nan Mengjie dotes on An Zhixing, she has taught him many things, and even entrusted him with the financial and financial encyclopedia of business.An Zhixing was like a child who hadn't grown up in front of Nan Mengjie, but Nan Mengjie knew his ability.

"It's just that when we were about to arrive in the capital, we had some conflicts with a few people, and it was a bit of a delay. It's nothing serious," An Zhixing would not be so stupid as to tell Nan Mengjie that the two groups almost fought.

"Someone with a background in the family?" Nan Mengjie guessed that it was not a good thing.

"Well, it's about the same. Anyway, there was no conflict. It's just that the air is occupying the way and not giving in to each other," An Zhixing said as truthfully and simply as possible.

"My people must not be bullied, you know? If something happens, please notify the Dark Soul Pavilion and let Leng Yehua deal with it," Nan Mengjie specially instructed.

"Understood, Sister, the people in Anfu seem to be very kind to you," An Zhixing has always been good at observing, but he will not show this ability to Nan Mengjie, because he only wants to be Nan Mengjie. Hope's brother.

"They're all fine. By the way, is there any problem with your investigation along the way?" Nan Mengjie was transferred to the main topic.

"It's not a big problem. It's mainly due to some balances in the accounts, but the amount is not large, so I fined him some money and gave him a warning," An Zhixing said seriously about his work.

"That's good, write down the problems, and send someone to investigate secretly after a while. If there are no problems, the wages will be raised. If there are still problems, find a way to replace people." Nan Mengjie doesn't like those greedy people. People, people are not sages and sages, and they can be forgiven as long as they know their mistakes and correct them.

"Well, I see," An Zixing actually had the same idea as Nan Mengjie, but there was no salary increase.

Afterwards, the two discussed business matters for a while, and Nan Mengjie asked An Zhixing to rest.

On the second day, everyone just had breakfast.Mingyue took Nan Mengjie to dress up, watched Nan Mengjie put on the clothes and jewelry she had tried on the day before, and instructed her personal maid to dress up for Nan Mengjie. Nan Mengjie painted her eyebrows and put on powder, she just wanted to cover the faint scars on Nan Mengjie's face, so that she could become a person with a beautiful mouth today.

Nan Mengjie was wearing a goose yellow pleated dress with a large cloud pattern embroidered with silver thread on the hem, and a light orange belt around her waist, highlighting her slender waist.The bun is combed with drop ears, and the front of the bun is decorated with a lotus-shaped gold inlaid jade, and a gold tassel headdress is inserted obliquely on the side.The scars on the face were completely covered, with fair skin, Liu Yue's curved eyebrows, and long and curled eyelashes, there was a pair of clear, bright, piercing eyes, and the vicissitudes of life in the eyes were even more special.

After Mingyue's dressing up, Nan Mengjie appeared in front of everyone with a perfect dress and exquisite makeup.

"It's so beautiful," Mrs. An sighed.

Not only Madam An, but An Zixing and Mingyu were also surprised.Nan Mengjie usually dresses casually and doesn't know how to dress up, so An Zixing has never seen such a beautiful Nan Mengjie, let alone Mingyu. Finding Nan Mengjie in a special period is even more impossible. I've seen her dress up.

"Look. This is my masterpiece," Mingyue said braggingly.

"Xiaoyue, you have a good eye," Mingyu smiled and praised Mingyue.

"Would this be too much?" Nan Mengjie said with some embarrassment when she was looked at.

"Sister, no, this is very good, beautiful, how wonderful," An Zixing said with a smile while pulling Nan Mengjie's arm.

"That's right, Xiaoxi, from now on, I have to be this pretty every day," Mrs. An liked Nan Mengjie more and more now.

"If I wear it like this every day, I won't exhaust Xiaoyue to death," Nan Mengjie joked with a smile.

"I'm not afraid of getting tired, so, from now on, Sister Xi will be so beautiful every day," Mingyue pushed An Zixing away without a trace.

An Zixing glanced at Mingyue, lowered his head and touched his nose, then consciously stepped aside.Mingyue saw that An Zixing was very interesting, so she paid special attention to him, and after a closer look, she found that An Zixing was still quite handsome.

Mingyue knew that An Zixing was fond of Nan Mengjie, and the little girl's jealousy made her want to monopolize Nan Mengjie.In addition to the little girl's thoughts, Mingyue also has selfish considerations for her brother, An Zixing is still a man after all, she doesn't want her future sister-in-law to be surrounded by other men.

After chatting for a while, some guests came to the door. The families who were really close to An's house came early. Mrs. An personally took Nan Mengjie to introduce the guests. Nan Mengjie was a little shy after being praised .

After lunch, most of the guests had already arrived. Nan Mengjie hung around in the front yard accompanied by An Zixing for a while, preparing to hide and relax. Those sincere and false compliments made her a little overwhelmed.Seeing Nan Mengjie's back, Mingyue immediately chased after her. As soon as An Zixing saw Mingyue, he automatically dodged away, and found an excuse to go to another place to pass the time.

"Sister Xi, has An Zixing been by your side all the time?" Mingyue asked while holding Nan Mengjie's arm.

"Yeah, what's the matter?" Nan Mengjie looked at Mingyue suspiciously.

"How did you guys meet? I heard from my brother that he is an orphan," Mingyue just wanted to get to know An Zixing better.

Nan Mengjie began to tell kind lies again because of Mingyue's problem.

"Why did you come here?" Mingyu smiled and asked the two outstanding men in front of her.

"If I hadn't come to see your new baby, Pimple, and the old man's special instructions, I would have been late," said the man who spoke, Zhang Qiang, the son of Zhang's family, a well-known businessman in the capital, who has a business relationship with Ouyang Ling. contacts.

"I've said it several times, but you brought her for us to meet. We have to find her by ourselves," said Jian Fu, the second grandson of the old prime minister and now the prime minister's nephew.

The current prime minister is the second son of the old prime minister, and his eldest son is a military general. He and Prince An are also good friends. He died on the battlefield. He is also like a parent.

"I told you all, ever since I came back either Mingxi or my mother, they have been surrounding Mingxi all the time, so that I have no chance to chat with her alone," Mingyu said with a happy expression and a helpless tone.

"Jian Fu, look at Mingyu's shy look. Those who know that Mrs. An has adopted an adopted daughter, but those who don't know think he is going to marry a wife," Zhang Qiang touched Jian Fu with his shoulder while speaking.

As Mingyu's close friends, Jian Fu and Zhang Qiang knew that Mingyu was looking for someone, and both of them helped a lot.Mingyu changed a lot before and after, and he used the excuse of being sick to fool him. The process of his acquaintance with Nan Mengjie was naturally a lie.
