"No, we're not wronged."
The two girls waved their hands repeatedly with blushing faces. Their fear of this serious father-in-law was completely gone and was replaced by a good impression.
"But Ning 'er, you have to know that marriage is not just between two people. It also involves our families."
Ding Lie looked at Ding Ning with a serious expression. The sudden change in his tone made Ding Ning's heart, which had just been relieved, suddenly jump to his throat again. He did not know what his parents were up to, so he could only continue to listen obediently.
"A marriage without the blessing of parents will not be happy. Whether it's Yanran, Pianwu, or other daughters-in-law, Ning 'er's father and I think that it's not a good thing to marry Ning' er without telling your parents. So, Ning 'er, your father and I have the same opinion on this matter."
Su Ningxiang continued Ding Lie's words and looked at Ding Ning lovingly as she spoke softly.
Although the words had not been said clearly, Ding Ning already knew what his parents meant. He immediately took a deep breath and nodded. "Dad, Mom, to tell you the truth, I've been thinking about this matter. This is also the reason why I insist on building a sect."
Although Su Ningxiang was smart, she did not understand the martial arts world. Hearing this, she was a little confused. On the contrary, Ding Lie's eyes flashed and he showed a look of understanding. "No wonder, no wonder. I was wondering why you wanted to build a sect. So that's why."
"What do you mean? Why don't I understand? "
Su Ningxiang blinked and looked at her husband and son blankly. For the first time, she felt that her IQ seemed to be a little off line.
"Let Ning 'er explain it to you."
Ding Lie did not answer and gave the right to explain to his son.
"Mom, you're not a martial artist, so you don't understand the rules of the ancient martial arts world."
Ding Ning scratched his head and explained with a hollow laugh, "Since ancient times, chivalrous people have broken the law with their martial arts. Martial artists are a very special group in any dynasty, and they are also the group that all the rulers are most wary of and have the most headaches about. Therefore, as long as martial artists do not commit heinous crimes such as betraying the country, killing the innocent, destroying the harmonious and stable situation of society, the country usually turns a blind eye to martial artists …"
Su Ningxiang was indeed the most talented woman in Andu in the past. Before Ding Ning finished his words, she immediately understood and said with sudden realization, "I see. You mean that the country's control over Warriors is not as strict as it is with ordinary citizens. As long as Warriors don't do anything outrageous, the country usually won't pursue it. That's why you established a sect and became the sect head to show your identity as a Warrior. In that way, you can marry more wives, right?"
"Mom, we're good friends if we don't say it out loud. Why do you have to say it out loud? Can't we play happily?"
Seeing that Murong Yanran and Feng Pianwu were too ashamed to show their faces, blushed, and their heads almost drooped into their chests, Ding Ning grinned and said in a spoiled and cute manner.
Su Ningxiang reached out and knocked on his forehead, pretended to be angry, and glared at him. "Kid, you can't even talk to me, can you?"
"Yes, of course. After all, you're my most gentle, kind-hearted, beautiful, generous, virtuous, smart, and wise mother."
Ding Ning rubbed his forehead, which did not hurt at all, and started to flatter his mother with a cheeky smile.
"You only know how to make your mother happy with your glib tongue all day long."
Su Ningxiang rebuked him, but her beaming face did not look like she was blaming him at all.
Ding Lie shook his head at the side and sighed. "A loving mother leads to a spoiled son. The ancients didn't lie to me."
"What did you say? Say it again if you have the guts. "
Su Ningxiang immediately turned the spearhead, twisted Ding Lie's ear, and shouted fiercely.
"No, I didn't say anything. I just said that my son has grown up and is so capable. It's all because of your good genes."
Ding Lie's ear turned red because of the twisting, but he showed a flattering smile and showed his teeth to please Ding Ning.
Ding Ning was secretly happy at the side, but he found that Murong Yanran and Feng Pianwu glanced at him strangely, which made him confused and did not know what they meant.
He did not know that the two women were muttering at the same time at the moment, "My father-in-law's expression at the moment looks so familiar. Even though they look nothing alike, their sneaky smiles seem to be carved from the same mold. They deserve to be father and son."
"Humph, you're good at talking."
Su Ningxiang raised her head proudly and let go of Ding Lie.
In fact, she was not a woman who did not know the general situation, nor would she embarrass her man in public.
As the saying goes, everything goes well if the family is harmonious. It was not a good thing that all the daughters-in-law feared Ding Lie from the bottom of their hearts.
Therefore, she deliberately pretended to be a lion and took the opportunity to show off their affection, hoping that her daughters-in-law would not have a serious and rigid impression of him. It had to be said that as a mother-in-law and a mother, she had done her best for this family.
Ding Lie was not stupid. He had long understood her intention, so he tried his best to cooperate with her at the cost of losing his face.
After all, when his daughters-in-law saw him every day, they trembled with fear and did not even dare to breathe loudly, which made him feel uncomfortable.
It was okay if they knew that he was always serious, but if they did not know him, they might think that he looked down on these daughters-in-law. If the family was disturbed because of this, it would be his fault.
How could Ding Ning not see his father and mother's good intentions? He was moved inwardly, but he did not show it on his face. When he was about to speak, he was interrupted by Ding Lie waving his hand. "We got off the topic because of your interruption. Now let's get down to business."
"Business? What other business? "
Ding Ning was stunned and asked curiously.
"Business is that we, as parents, should meet the parents of our daughters-in-law. I don't care about others. After all, their parents are not here. But the families of Yanran and Pianwu have come to Tianze Sect. Your mother and I have discussed it and decided to take this opportunity to meet them and tell them the truth. Otherwise, when their parents know it in the future, they will definitely scold your mother and me for being immature as parents."
Ding Lie said solemnly, which made Ding Ning stunned on the spot. He opened his mouth and did not know what to say.
Pianwu was fine, because the old ancestor of the Feng Family could not wait to flatter him now. But in Yanran's family, when he thought of Murong Junlin's attitude towards him, his heart kept beating like a drum.
He looked at the two women subconsciously, but found that they looked happy and had no intention of objecting at all. Then he suddenly realized that they might have come to talk about this matter before. It was just that they found it difficult to talk about it, so they did not say it at all.
This made him realize that he still did not understand women. He always thought that everything would be fine after he got the marriage certificate with them, but he ignored that marriage was the most important thing in a woman's life. They all hoped to get the blessing of their families, including Pianwu, Yanran, and even his elder sister.
Thinking of this, Ding Ning was filled with guilt and looked at his mother gratefully. He knew that a rough man like his father could not think of this, and only his mother could be so meticulous.
Sure enough, his mother winked at him and smiled at him. She didn't need to say anything to express her feelings.
"Okay, I'll talk to them in person."
Ding Ning just thought for a while and said frankly.
Although he was afraid of creatures like Old Tarzan from the bottom of his heart, as a responsible man, since he had married someone's daughter, he should face this reality bravely.
Anyway, he would be hurt if he stuck his head out, and he would also be hurt if he shrank his head. Escaping would never solve the problem.
Ding Lie smiled with relief. Although his son was a little dissolute, he was still very responsible. This was the attitude that a man should have.
If he only cared about his own dissolute and happy life, but was not willing to bear the responsibilities and obligations he should have and let them, as parents, directly negotiate with the girl's parents, no matter how excellent his son was, he would be deeply disappointed because of this.
Su Ningxiang and he had a tacit understanding. Looking at Ding Ning, her eyes were full of tenderness and love. She patted her son's shoulder and encouraged him, "Go ahead, your father and I are waiting to meet the in-laws."
"Honey."
Feng Pianwu pursed her lips and did not say anything, but looked at Ding Ning with her eyes full of attachment and love. Murong Yanran, on the other hand, became nervous because of personal gains and losses, and shouted softly with her eyes full of anxiety.
Ding Ning gave her a reassuring look and said solemnly, "Don't worry. For you, even if I have to climb a mountain of swords or swim in a sea of fire, I will not refuse. Don't worry, I will definitely come back alive."
Murong Yanran rolled her eyes and said angrily, "You think too much. I want to say that when we fight later, you should hold back your strength and don't kill him. No matter what, he is my father."
Ding Lie and his wife, "…"
Feng Pianwu, "…"
Ding Ning, "…"
She was indeed the queen, domineering as always.
The wind was bleak and the water was cold. Once a hero left … well, he would definitely come back.
In the territory of Tianze Island, even a dragon had to coil up and a tiger had to lie down, not to mention Murong Junlin.
Picking the soft persimmon first, Ding Ning had the idea of practicing the process. He went to the guest house where the Feng Family was located first.
Although the auction was over and many people had left, there were still many people who temporarily stayed because it was late.
The great ancestor of the Feng Family had done something stupid again. He made a mistake in judgment and didn't take the opportunity to curry favor with Ding Ning. Instead, he had completely offended him.
Originally, he didn't have the face to stay but thinking that the Long Family was still suppressing the Feng Family, if he went back like this, his family would certainly be ruined.
If Fangzheng went back, he would also die. If he stayed, he might have a chance of survival. After thinking it over, the great ancestor of the Feng Family could only thicken his skin and continue to stay. He sent Feng Ni 'er to find Feng Pianwu, wanting to take the path of kinship and fight for a chance of survival.
Although Feng Ni 'er despised her grandfather's actions, this concerned the survival of the family. She could only put down the dissatisfaction in her heart and go beg Aunt Wu.
Unexpectedly, Feng Pianwu was not at her place at all. She asked the people of Tianze Sect and no one was willing to tell her where Feng Pianwu had gone.
After all, everyone had seen what the Feng Family had done. It was already very magnanimous of Tianze Sect to not directly chase the Feng Family out. How could they still be nice to them?
Thus, when Ding Ning arrived at the guest building where the Feng Family was staying, the great ancestor of the Feng Family had just welcomed back a dejected Feng Ni 'er. After learning that she hadn't seen Feng Pianwu, he was sighing in regret.
"The sect leader has arrived."
The wolf guard responsible for protecting the guest building suddenly straightened his body and shouted in a loud and clear voice.
Thump!
The great ancestor of the Feng Family was so frightened that he fell to the ground. With a look of despair on his face, he murmured, "It's over, it's over. He's come to settle accounts with me."
It should be known that he dared to stay because he hoped that Feng Pianwu would remember their past relationship. He wanted to use her to resolve the conflict. But now that Feng Pianwu was nowhere to be seen, Ding Ning had come directly to their door. If this wasn't settling accounts, then what was?
Feng Ni 'er sighed. Looking at her grandfather's useless appearance, her gaze was lost. How did her grandfather, who had once been powerful and famous in the ancient martial world for shielding his people, become so cowardly?
