The Herbal Scents of Farm Life

Chapter 3163 - 3164: Unable to Turn a Blind Eye

"It’s good that it’s been dealt with."

Hearing that it was taken care of, Ding Rong also let out a sigh of relief.

"Dad, you need to understand that behind us is the City Lord’s Mansion. Whatever we do outside, we must first consider the interests of the City Lord’s Mansion, and also the interests of my aunt and uncle. Whatever others promise you is just empty talk!"

She spoke to Ding Zhuzui with a mix of warning and concern.

"Yes, Dad, the amount of money and power the family has doesn’t matter. As long as the family is doing well, that’s the best thing." Ding Xu echoed by the side.

Listening to their words, Ding Zhuzui now deeply agreed.

"Dad understands."

However, although he agreed verbally, he couldn’t put his mind completely at ease.

"Rong’er, Xu’er, do you know something? Is something major about to happen in Sky City..."

"Dad."

Before he could finish, Ding Rong interrupted him.

"You’re overthinking it, Dad. What major event could happen? Even if there is something significant, the City Lord’s Mansion will handle it. And if not, the Commander’s Office will back us up."

"Really?"

Hearing her say that, Ding Zhuzui felt more assured.

It seems Sky City is indeed not peaceful. He had heard of some things Lu Tianfeng had done before, but recently, there hasn’t been any news at all.

Perhaps he no longer exists in this world?

Of course, this was just his speculation. Even if it were true, he wouldn’t speak about it outside.

"By your words, I’m relieved. You can also rest assured that your grandmother and I will definitely stand with your aunt and uncle. Anyone who wishes to challenge our Ding Family is courting death!"

Currently, the Ding Family and the City Lord’s Mansion are in-laws. He’d have to be out of his mind to align against his own sister.

That naturally is impossible.

However, just because he wouldn’t do it doesn’t mean other members of the Ding Family wouldn’t try.

Like those elders previously won over by Concubine Qiongying, a small benefit was enough to sway them. If there were greater temptations, who knows what outrageous things the other Ding Family members might do?

"Phew!"

He let out a heavy breath, looking earnestly at Ding Rong and Ding Xu.

"Rong’er, Xu’er, don’t worry. As for those Ding family members, regardless of who they are, if they dare to do anything against Sky City or the City Lord’s Mansion, your grandmother and I won’t tolerate it!

If there’s anything where the Ding Family needs to step in or assist, just let someone know, and whatever we can help with, your grandmother and I certainly will."

"Thank you for your understanding, Dad." Ding Rong expressed her gratitude.

The three of them spoke for a while longer, with Ding Rong repeatedly advising Ding Zhuzui not to get involved in outside matters.

"Dad, how is my concubine mother doing?"

After a while, Ding Xu finally spoke, asking about his concubine mother.

Even though Concubine Qiongying had ignored him since he understood things, and it was always his grandmother taking care of him, she was still his biological mother, and he couldn’t completely ignore her.

"Well..."

Mentioning Concubine Qiongying again darkened Ding Zhuzui’s expression.

He never imagined that a woman who once appeared weak and was too timid to speak much in Jin Cuiniang’s presence could gather several elders to her side.
