At this mont, Gao Mutou happened to return from behind, carrying Xiaoniu, and saw An Dafu and An Ning standing together, chatting about sothing. He casually asked, "What are you two talking about?"
An Dafu turned around and said, "Nothing much, I was saying that since everyone’s here today, we might as well kill a chicken and have a good al. I’m taking An Ning to catch a chicken."
Gao Mutou, born and raised in ancient tis, was quite good at managing daily affairs. "Those chickens are for you to raise and make money from. It’s not a holiday or a festival, how can you eat such precious things? It’s better to eat simply; not being hungry is already a good day."
An Ning said, "Dad, don’t worry about this. Mother needs to replenish her health to recover quickly. We raise these chickens at ho, working hard all day to live a good life. We can’t be stingy even to have a bite."
Sure enough, ntioning Mrs. Yan instantly silenced Gao Mutou’s objections.
"Alright then, can An Ning go? Or should I take Xiaoniu and go catch it?" Gao Mutou asked.
"There’s still , isn’t there? Lu Xiu and his brothers are staying over there, there’s no way we can’t even catch a chicken!" An Dafu replied.
Gao Mutou chuckled, "Alright, you two go, I’ll head back first."
Perhaps because they addressed an important matter, Mrs. Yan’s spirits seed much better.
At dinner, although they had already served her al so she could eat while lying on the bed, she insisted on coming out.
At the dinner table, An Ning realized why she wanted to co out.
Previously, although Mrs. Yan agreed to An Ning recognizing An Dafu as her godfather, she was sowhat displeased in her heart. So, even though it had happened a long ti ago, she never brought it up unless soone else did.
However, she suddenly brought up this matter and urgently set the ceremony of recognizing godparents for the day after tomorrow.
Of course, An Ning naturally welcod this, so she didn’t speak then; she listened to Lian discussing it with An Dafu.
Occasionally, Qiu and Gao Mutou would also chi in.
An Ning quickly finished her al, carried Xiaoniu, and went out, leaving the adults to talk.
That evening, after everyone left, An Ning initially planned to return to her room early to enter the space and take a look.
After all, although she continuously received reminders of gratitude from others, she hadn’t actually entered the space for a long ti.
However, before she had a chance to return to her room, she heard Mrs. Yan calling her.
Entering Mrs. Yan’s room, An Ning asked as she stepped in, "Mother, what’s up?"
Mrs. Yan gestured for her to co closer, saying, "Ningning, co here for a mont."
Obediently, An Ning walked over, sat by the bedside, and looked at Mrs. Yan, waiting for her to speak.
Then Mrs. Yan said, "The day after tomorrow is the godparent ceremony. Tomorrow, could you have Lu Xiu run an errand and take this opportunity to invite Lord County Magistrate over, is that alright?"
Even though it’s a godparent ceremony, inviting guests is indispensable.
If he cos that day, it would indicate that his relationship with An Ning is nothing to hide from outsiders. But if he doesn’t co, their relationship would lead to inevitable suspicions.
After all, An Bingfeng has returned, and as the current Pri Minister.
Mrs. Yan is not foolish; once emotions settle, many things beco clear.
She is also afraid that soone might covet An Bingfeng’s power and therefore target An Ning.
