Chapter 271 Detour
The Xi Family Dragon Boat Festival delicacies are very rich, and they are stewed, steamed and fried, and served with dessert fruits, a total of twenty-eight dishes.
This meal was to celebrate the first festival of the second family in the new house after the relocation of the Xi family, and to celebrate the addition of more than 20 servants at the family, which symbolized the prosperity of the people and wealth, and then celebrated the second family of the Xi family, which was better and better day by day.
There were six tables in total, five masters were one table, Jiang Zhenfeng and his son were one table, Leng Yun and Leng Feng were one table, six servants were one table, and the maid and the mother divided into three tables.
In order to be happy and to celebrate, Xi Tongfang also specially bought a few jars of the best daughters.
Xi Tongfang and his wife and children sat at the table. In order to make Xi Tongfang happy, Ruan even had a drink with him.
Xi Feng and his two brothers also used soup instead of wine to toast Xi Tongfang and Ruan's several cups, and said a lot of good things. Xi Tongfang wanted to take off his head and sit for his children.
After eating and drinking, Xi Tongfang led his two sons to the study, while Ruan took Xi Feng back to the Osmanthus Garden.
After entering the house, Ruan condemned the maids and mothers, and pulled their daughter down and said, "A Feng, Mrs. Zhang mentioned the marriage to her nephew today. If you are willing, my mother will tell your father and send a servant to find out about the character and virtue of Mrs. Zhang's nephew. If the other party is a good person, then our family will agree to this marriage. What do you think?"
Xi Feng looked shy and shook her head without thinking, "Mom, I'm still young, and I want to spend two more years with you and dad at home. I don't want to settle in my husband's house so early."
"It's time for Ji Hai, it's time to make a reservation, A Feng, my mother said before that she would wait for you to settle down in the family at the age of seventeen, and that was also forced by rumors outside. As a parent of children, who wouldn't want to make a marriage for her children as soon as possible? If it's too late, the good men have been snatched away."
The Zhang family relies on the Chu family to survive. The Xi family has a good relationship with the Chu family, and Xi Feng even saves the Fourth Master of the Chu family. Ruan believes that even for the sake of the Chu family, Mrs. Zhang will not propose marriage to Xi Feng casually.
Since Mrs. Zhang wants Xi Feng to be her nephew’s wife, her nephew’s character will never be bad. Otherwise, if Xi Feng’s life is not good, Chu Laoan will not show the Zhang family a good face.
Of course, what kind of character is Mrs. Zhang’s nephew, it still has to be sent to inquire about it.
"My mother, let's do this. Don't tell my father first. Send a few more maids to inquire. If the person is good, we are talking."
Xi Feng couldn't bear to refuse Ah Niang directly, so she planned to detour.
The Fourth Master said that Zhao Biao had a bad character. Although he worked as a servant in the government office, he could eat, drink, whore and gambling. Her parents would definitely not look down on such a character.
Ruan Shi smiled and said repeatedly, "Okay, okay, my mother, let's send Liu Ma to inquire."
When someone else went to inquire, Ruan was worried. Liu's mother watched Xi Feng grow up and was loyal to the Xi family. Moreover, Liu's mother would not harm Xi Feng, so she would definitely inquire carefully.
Xi Feng said with a funny look, "My grandma, today's Dragon Boat Festival, don't worry, let Ma Liu go tomorrow."
"Haha, look at my mother, I'm so happy that I forgot about the holiday. OK, then my mother will listen to you and let Mom Liu go tomorrow."
The mother and daughter discussed this matter well.
