Ye Jinming had always been on good terms with Mu Rufeng. Seeing that he was really angry this time, he said, "I'll go and persuade him."
But Xiao Chengyi stopped him: "Uncle, there's no need to go. If he's angry, let him be angry. I'm hungry, so let's eat first."
Ye Jinming frowned, wondering what kind of medicine Xiao Chengyi was selling in the gourd.
But he knew that Xiao Chengyi always had ideas, so he didn't ask any more questions.
Xiao Chengyi looked at Wu Xuanye's depressed look, then reached out and patted his shoulder and said, "Don't be impatient."
Wu Xuanye nodded, but his heart had already flown to Yun Xi.
He regretted it a little. Although he knew Mu Rufeng would object, he didn't expect his reaction to be so strong.
If I had known earlier, I should have listened to Xiao Chengyi, concealed my identity, and been a villain.
By then the deal is already done, even if Mu Rufeng finds out, there is nothing he can do.
Everyone listened to Xiao Chengyi's words, and no one tried to persuade Mu Rufeng. They sat together and had a meal as if nothing happened.
At the banquet, Xiao Chengyi told his parents what happened in southern Xinjiang.
And every bit of the relationship between Wu Xuanye and Shen Yunxi.
After hearing this, everyone couldn't help but feel a little emotional, and their inquiring eyes fell on Wu Xuanye.
Regardless of appearance, temperament, or talent, this person is extremely outstanding.
Such a good son-in-law is hard to find even with a lantern, but Mu Rufeng is the only one who has a worldly outlook and insists on separating them regardless of her daughter's life or death.
At this time, someone at the banquet suddenly heard someone say: "Mr. Wu, Mu Rufeng is just a stickler, determined to separate you and Yun Xi.
Otherwise, would you consider becoming my son-in-law? My daughter has just grown hair and is as beautiful as a flower."
The speaker was Feng Mian. He was Yuan Chen's personal bodyguard and later commanded the Imperial Guard. His wife Song Wan'er was the Queen's bodyguard and the first woman to be an official in Beichen.
Now, the couple is in charge of patrol affairs inside and outside the capital, and they are very prosperous.
And they have a daughter at their knees.
It's just that this girl inherited some of her mother's traits, so that...
"Uncle Feng, you'd better change to someone else."
Mu Yun'an couldn't help but interrupted Feng Mian's thoughts and said: "Wu Xuanye and sister Yun Xi are determined to do so. Don't try to influence him, but think about how to get my second father to agree to this marriage."
Feng Mian said: "This is the way. It's not like you don't know Mu Rufeng. He always likes to compare and wants to find the best husband for Yun Xi, but he doesn't like any man from the capital.
He is so angry right now that he doesn't realize how good this son-in-law is. If I snatch his son-in-law away, do you think he can still sit still?"
Xiao Chengyi smiled and said: "It's a good idea."
He looked at Wu Xuanye and saw that he was distracted and seemed not to be listening to what they were saying at all.
He poured Wu Xuanye a glass of wine and said, "Don't worry, since I brought you back, I will make sure you get what you want.
You must know that we are all on your side. As the saying goes, an arm cannot twist a thigh.
No matter how stubborn my godfather is, he will fight alone and sooner or later he will surrender."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Wu Xuanye looked at them and said gratefully: "Thank you."
He could feel that, except for Mu Rufeng, Xiao Chengyi's elders all liked him.
Moreover, His Majesty and the Queen are friendly to others, without any airs, and they feel like a family when they sit together without feeling restricted at all.
He finally understood where Xiao Chengyi's courage came from. He probably inherited it from his parents, who were extremely kind people at heart.
