I Made a Fortune by Marrying a Sick Girl!

Chapter 382 The tit-for-tat confrontation at the court meeting

How would the two ministers react?

Qin Chi probably had a guess, but their attempts to make things difficult didn't seem very clever to him. As long as he kept his composure and had a little contact with one party, they would guess and be suspicious of each other without him doing anything else.

Too lazy to pay attention to the two of them, Qin Chi was accompanying Song Jin to choose someone at home.

After Old Li Tou finished delivering the post, he also brought a group of people back to his home, including the rough messenger's wife and maid, as well as two nurturing mothers, maids and servants.

It was sent to Song Jin for use.

Song Jin chose a nun to teach Niu Niu, and then chose two little maids for her, who could usually help Xiaoyu. She chose two people to serve her. Mrs. Huang was the mother in charge and took care of her youngest son.

Qin Chi picked two more errand boys to wait.

As the house gets bigger, there are more people to clean.

Picked a few more.

A total of a dozen people were selected.

Lao Litou said in front of his servants: "These people will use it first, try it for a while, keep the one that works well, and replace it with another one if it doesn't work." These words were undoubtedly knocking these people.

"Okay, excuse me, Uncle Li."

Song Jin accepted his favor, "Uncle Li also chooses a few errands? You don't have to work so hard with your husband all the time."

"Mrs. Lao is concerned. I have a hard life. If I don't follow the young master, I will feel uncomfortable." Old Li Tou smiled.

Can he say this is his duty?

Who doesn’t want to live comfortably? But he was ordered to stay with the young master. If he really wanted to rest, only Qin Chi or the prince and the prince would speak up.

However, Lao Litou was also in love with Song Jin.

He knew Song Jin had good intentions.

Then Lao Li Tou and Song Jin talked about the fire in the new residence. Qin Chi meant that it would not be a big deal, just a few tables and invite some close people.

Song Jin has almost no contact with his relatives.

The only representative is Xing Lun.

Relatives of the Qin family are not here either. Among the invited people are students and colleagues that Qin Chi knows. After being an official for so long, I really don’t have many colleagues that I am familiar with.

Some people with real connections cannot contact him openly and need to avoid suspicion.

Qin Chi and Song Jin thought about it over and over again, but still couldn't decide on the list. I only invited Lu Yanji and Lu Baizhou, but I was worried that they would be too conspicuous. It would not be a good thing to be too close to him at this time. Inviting Yan Xianqing and others was also afraid of being suspected of forming a clique for personal gain.

Song Jin simply suggested: "My lord, why don't you post directly to colleagues you know in the Hanlin Academy, Dali Temple and the Ministry of Industry, regardless of their official position, just those who have worked with you before."

"Are you inviting everyone you know?" Qin Chi raised his eyebrows and looked at Song Jin.

Song Jin smiled politely, "This way no one will read your book and say that you are forming a clique for personal gain."

"Hahaha…"

Qin Chi laughed brightly, "But this is no small treat."

"My husband has not been an official for a long time. I did the math and it actually doesn't take more than a few tables." Song Jin estimated that more than a dozen people would come.

Qin Chi said helplessly: "Madam, you must have forgotten that whenever there is a celebration in the family of a high-ranking and powerful person, even if it is not publicized. If someone hears about it, they will send a congratulatory gift."

Song Jin had forgotten.

He forgot that Qin Chi, who was sitting in front of him, was already considered to be of high authority.

It's not that she doesn't understand.

It's because her mentality hasn't changed yet, and her mother-in-law taught her the same things in the past.

After Song Jin was stunned for a moment, he quickly regained his composure and said seriously: "I'm sorry, sir, I was negligent in this matter. So the people who are invited will most likely bring their wives with them, and there may also be some Junior will attend and I will make arrangements."

There are separate seats for men and women at the banquet.

A separate place must be chosen for the ladies' banquet, and married and unmarried female relatives must be entertained separately. Song Jin looked at Qin Chi again, "Let your husband entertain the male guests. If there are unmarried young masters, you can also ask Sanlang to greet them."

"My lady has thought very carefully."

Qin Chi only hoped that not many people would come.

In the next two days, Qin Chi sent posts one by one to his familiar colleagues in the Hanlin Academy, Dali Temple and the Ministry of Industry.

In order to avoid letting others spend money, in fact, to avoid being spotted by the censor and saying that he took the opportunity to accept bribes, he solemnly stated in the post that it was an ordinary banquet and no gifts were accepted. He asked the other party to come over and have a simple meal, and he could also bring his wife and children to add to the house. Just popularity.

This approach is understandable.

Many people can relate.

This is mostly the practice of clean officials among civil servants.

This has given Qin Chi a good reputation. At least he is not arrogant after he succeeds.

There is no shortage of people in the world who are humble and polite before becoming famous, but after becoming famous, they become arrogant and arrogant to the point of forgetfulness.

The only thing that is puzzling, or criticized, is that Qin Chi did not send a message to Zhang Shilang.

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

Whether intentionally or unintentionally, he just missed Zhang Shilang's invitation. You must know that Qin Chi even sent posts to several chief executives of the Yu Heng Division of the Ministry of Industry, which shows that he is not someone who flatters the superior and despises the inferior.

It is precisely because of his non-status-oriented way of posting that most people don't think Qin Chi is bad. Instead, he began to guess whether it was Zhang Shilang's problem.

Because Wang Shilang, who was at the same level as Zhang Shilang, had received the invitation early, and it was Qin Chi who personally delivered it to his house. Such a comparison revealed Zhang Shilang again.

Wang Shilang was speechless about this matter.

Mr. Zhang was so angry that he smashed several sets of expensive tea sets.

Qin Chi never said anything bad about Shilang Zhang before. Without saying a single bad word, others seemed to see his grievances.

He looked very calm, but even Qin Chi didn't know how others could see that he was wronged? Has anyone ever thought that not speaking ill of others in front of others is just because of their good upbringing?

The day before the party.

It happens to be the Great Court Meeting.

Qin Chi accidentally met Wang Shilang and Zhang Shilang who came to court.

The two of them pretended to be sick, so it was difficult for them to miss court meetings. Otherwise, Emperor Mingcheng would probably ask about it, and they would be the ones in trouble. You can take advantage of illness here at the Ministry of Industry, but you can't.

Pretending to be sick is tantamount to deceiving the emperor when you are facing the emperor.

It’s okay if I don’t pursue it or hold on to it.

If someone pursues the two of them, they will have to shed their skin.

Qin Chi walked over with a smile on his face and asked politely: "Shilang Wang, Shilang Zhang, are you two feeling better?"

"Much better, much better, Lord Lao Qin is worried about me." Wang Shilang responded awkwardly.

Zhang Shilang pretends to be good in front of others, "I didn't expect Mr. Qin to care about our health even though he has so many things to do."

"Shilang Zhang, be careful what you say. Your Majesty is the one who takes care of everything, not a mere minister like me." Qin Chi corrected Shilang Zhang seriously.

Zhang Shilang suddenly slapped himself in the mouth, "Oh, I almost said something wrong. I hope Mr. Qin won't blame me."

"Who am I to blame Shilang Zhang? This is the first time I've seen you since I took up the post at the Ministry of Industry. It makes you feel more cordial." Qin Chi also had a knife in his mouth.

Emperor Ming Cheng has not come yet.

The officials on the side watched a good show.

None of the civil and military officials in the palace knew that because Qin Chi was parachuted to the Ministry of Works, the two ministers had been sick and recuperating at home. This gave Qin Chi enough power that Qin Chi was now not exposed to the core affairs of the Ministry of Works.

Many people are waiting to see Qin Chi's jokes.
