    Spring has begun, and more people are going out to do things. The flow of people in Jinling City has begun to increase.

    Fang Xing and his party entered the city and went straight to the British Duke's Mansion.

    The British government palace had a completely new look today. When Fang woke up and got off the carriage, he saw a stream of people coming in and out.

    After seeing Fang Xing¡¯s carriage, a man came over to greet him. He first looked at the regulations of the carriage, and then asked with a relaxed expression: "May I ask why your distinguished guest is here today?"

    It¡¯s formal and not festive at all.

    Fang Xing frowned and said, "I was here last time, Fang Xing from Fangjiazhuang."

    The man was stunned for a moment. He probably didn¡¯t see Fang Xing last time, and no one reminded him today, so he said awkwardly: ¡°May I ask whether your distinguished guest and the Duke¡¯s Mansion are¡±

    What?  Fang Xing felt that today was really a bad day, but he couldn't get angry on his mother-in-law's birthday, so he said, "Call Xue Huamin."

    Damn it!  Upon hearing Xue Huamin's name, the man's expression immediately changed and he trotted in.

    "Husband, why don't you tell us our identities?"

    Zhang Shuhui, who was bored in the car, felt a little strange.

    "There are people coming and going at this gate. If everyone hears that His Majesty's brother-in-law is coming, there will be no peace!"

    Zhang Shuhui couldn't help but laugh at Fang Xing's nonsense.

    Not long after, Xue Huamin hurried over. He cupped his hands to Fang Xing and said apologetically: "Second uncle, I'm very sorry. Please come with me."

    As Xue Huamin waved, a woman came over immediately and led the carriage into the side door.

    Fang Xing looked at Xue Huamin's tired face and said with relief, "There are too many guests today?"

    ??

    When Fang Xing followed him into the large courtyard dedicated to receiving distinguished guests, people outside were talking a lot.

    "Who is that person? Why don't I recognize him?"

    ??Everyone in the British government knew everyone, but Fang Xing had a face like Zhang Sheng¡¯s.  Moreover, Fang Xing's clothes didn't look like he came from a wealthy family, and his temperament lacked the arrogance of his ancestors, so they just discussed it and then dissipated.

    Fang Xing was taken to a small room to drink tea, with a maid waiting on him.

    There is a garden outside the small house. At this time, more than ten people were chatting in groups outside.

    The tea is good, but a bit deserted.

    Fang Xing didn¡¯t care. He took out the mathematics textbook he was writing recently and carefully considered the details.

    So far, Fang Xing¡¯s knowledge reserve is enough to cope with those three students, but there is no limit to the sea of ??learning, so he must make preparations early.

    "Brother Dehua!"

    Fang Xing, who was concentrating on studying, looked up when he heard the sound and saw Liu Pu.

    Liu Pu said in surprise: "Brother Dehua, why are you here today?"

    Can I tell you that today¡¯s birthday girl is my mother-in-law?

    Fang Xing laughed, "The weather is pretty good today!"

    "It's not bad."

    Liu Pu agreed casually, and then when he saw the notebook in Fang Xing's hand, he was immediately filled with admiration.

    "Brother Dehua, you are really studying all the time! No wonder you can become an old scholarly person."

    Liu Pu wanted to say the three words "old scholar" smoothly. Afterwards, he secretly rejoiced, thinking that it was a good thing he didn't say it out loud, otherwise he would be in trouble tomorrow.

    But Fang Xing seemed to be smiling, but his heart was bright.

    ¡°Boy, do you dare to say that I am an old scholar?  you are done!

    Just when Fang Xing found his companion, Zhang Shuhui also arrived at the lobby of the backyard.

    As a birthday girl, Mrs. Zhang was dressed cheerfully and sat in the middle. There were some ladies chatting and laughing with her in the lower capital.  When I heard the maid came in and said that the second aunt's wife had arrived, the room was silent for a moment, and all kinds of eyes were flying around.

    Everyone has only heard of this second aunt of the Zhang family more than three years ago.

    Anyone who dares to break away from home is interested in taking a good look at her.

    ¡°And I heard that the second aunt finally married the fianc¨¦ who had been judged to have no bright future. For a while, everyone¡¯s minds were filled with all kinds of thoughts and speculations.

    As the door curtain was opened, a woman wearing a goose-yellow dress walked in.

    ¡°Eh¡­??¡±

    Everyone thought they would see a woman who looked like a walking zombie, but unexpectedly, a beautiful woman with skin as tender as a baby and a natural smile on her face came in.

    "What are those blue earrings on her ears made of? They really make her skin whiter and more tender!"

    "Tsk tsk! The golden butterfly on her head is so ingenious, it seems to fly when she moves around!"

    "Wow! That ring on her hand is so beautiful! The gemstone can dazzle people's eyes when it turns."

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? By Zhang Shuhui and her two maids, she bowed down and said birthday wishes.

    "Get up quickly."

    Mrs. Zhang smiled and said that she had received a letter from Zhang Fu, in which Fang Xing was full of praise.

    This wife is valued by her husband, so Zhang Shuhui received extremely high treatment today.

    Zhang Shuhui was helped up. She reached out to take the wooden box handed by the maid and said with a smile: "My mother is celebrating her birthday, but my daughter is stupid. In the end, she only prepared some small gifts, and I asked my mother to accept them."

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

    All eyes were instantly focused on the top of the wooden box, and the burning curiosity almost burned a hole in the top of the box.

    A maid took the wooden box and handed it to Mrs. Zhang.

    Mrs. Zhang didn¡¯t even look at it, so she was about to put it away, but a lady below said with a smile: ¡°Old madam, why don¡¯t you open it and let me open my eyes!¡±

    "yes!"

    Another lady also joined in the fun and said: "We have already seen the British father-in-law's congratulatory gift. This second aunt is also very filial. The second master and the third master must also be on the way. The old lady is lucky!"

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Mrs. Zhang was a little bit too hard to get off, so Mrs. Zhang had to ask someone to open the box.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

    All eyes glanced at Zhang Shuhui neatly, and then turned to the maid.

    Poor woman, she should have lost all her dignity now!

    The women sitting here today are basically all nobles, and a few are wives of civil servants.  Everyone had secretly fought over whose gift was the most precious, and there was still some unfinished business.

    Zhang Shuhui was hit head-on.

    "Ouch! What are you doing?"

    Before the wooden box was opened, two women came in together.

    Mrs. Zhang was already feeling uncomfortable. When she saw them, she said calmly: "From the second child's family, from the third child's family, you guys got here very quickly."

    The two women immediately stopped greeting each other, knelt on the ground to express their birthday wishes, and then also presented their own gifts.

    "Hey! Isn't this the second sister? Why are you here today too?"

    "Second sister is more diligent than us today!"

    The two ladies first said something disdainful to Zhang Shuhui, and then proudly turned to the gift they had given.

    ¡°How dare you, the wife of a small rural landowner, compete with us in wealth?  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
