General, the lady escaped again

Chapter 857 Secretly Preparing the Dowry (1)

Chen Zihao was startled when he heard about Ling's son-in-law, and Old Ling smiled proudly. "That's right, my son-in-law of the Ling family, don't be envious, my son-in-law of the Ling family has spoken, and the Ling family agrees."

Chen Zihao's eyes suddenly felt a little painful. He turned his head away and blinked, suppressing the tears. Then he turned back and smiled. "Uncles, excuse me for making fun of you."

"Oh! I don't know when I will have a great-grandson to hug me." Old Bai patted Old Ling enviously. Old Ling already has a great-grandson, but his grandson still doesn't even have a partner.

"Haha, you can't envy her!" Old Ling was so proud at this moment. He used to blame Ling Wei, but now he wanted to praise Ling Wei.

His granddaughter is outstanding! His great-grandson is about to be born.

"Hmph." Seeing Elder Ling's smug look, Elder Bai and Elder Hu became angry.

After deciding to conduct the drill, Fang Chen assigned tasks to each family and agreed that after the surprise drill tomorrow night, everyone would go back and prepare.

"Grandpa, you guys go back first! I still have something to discuss with them." Chen Zihao said to Old Ling. Old Ling nodded, and left with Qu Jing and others.

Chen Zihao stood at the door waiting for Fang Chen and Ji Xiaomu. Fang Chen looked at Chen Zihao, waiting for him to speak.

"It suddenly occurred to me just now that we can take advantage of this exercise to screen all the people in Heyang City." Chen Zihao did not beat around the bush. After interacting with Fang Chen a lot, he knew that he liked to get straight to the point and didn't need any preparation.

"What do you think?" Fang Chen looked at Chen Zihao, and Chen Zihao looked at Ji Xiaomu.

"Sister-in-law, this is a good idea. While teaching them how to protect themselves and escape, we can also test whether there are any suspicious people in the city." Chen Zihao suggested. "It is not appropriate to expose the matter of Heyang City too early. This kind of sudden situation is the easiest to test people's hearts! This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

"But does this require someone to follow and record? Otherwise, how can we judge?" Ji Xiaomu looked at Chen Zihao and asked.

"Have you forgotten Bai Yichen?" Chen Zihao reminded.

Ji Xiaowu and Fang Chen looked at each other, their eyes lit up. How could they have forgotten about Bai Yichen? "Let's go find him now!"

Ji Xiaomu and others came to the restaurant, but were told by the shopkeeper that Bai Yichen was not in the restaurant. Seeing the shopkeeper waving at them to leave, Ji Xiaomu followed him to a dark place.

"Madam, there's something wrong with the master these days!" the shopkeeper whispered to Ji Xiaomu.

"What's wrong?" Aunt Ji looked at the shopkeeper curiously.

"Ever since Miss Ling married Mr. Chen, the young master has been preparing the betrothal gifts, and he did it secretly and didn't allow me to tell anyone else." The shopkeeper looked at Ji Xiaomu. In his eyes, Ji Xiaomu was no one else.

"Didn't you ask him why he prepared it? What did he tell you?" Ji Xiao's eyes flashed, and she looked at the shopkeeper and asked.

"I asked, and the master told me not to say anything and just get ready." The shopkeeper replied, "Then the master was writing something alone, mumbling something, as if he was writing an oath. Madam, is it possible that the master is possessed by evil spirits? Should I inform the head of the family?"

The shopkeeper felt that his master was acting weird and wondered if he was possessed by evil spirits.

Otherwise, why would he prepare a betrothal gift for no apparent reason? He hadn't even seen the shadow of the young lady. Was the master upset by seeing Miss Ling getting married? How should he explain this to the head of the family?
