Chapter 664 This Is Not a Blind Date Party
After all the work at home was assigned, she thought that Zheng, who was usually well-spoken, would be good as a guest, but she didn't expect that this man was so shameless that he started a blind date with her son at her banquet.
At first, she thought that Mrs. Zheng had been trying to please Mr. Meng because she wanted Bai Anbang to get some preferential treatment at the town school. But then the more she heard about it, the more she felt something was wrong. When she saw Mr. Meng's somewhat annoyed look, she suddenly realized that Mr. Zheng was actually thinking about it. Fucked Chang Hui.
When he learned of her idea, to be honest, Bai Yunxi was so shocked that his eyes almost fell out of the window.
Putting aside whether the occasion was appropriate or not, why did she think that as long as she opened her mouth, people would agree to marry her daughter?
If you want to climb high, you have to see what advantages you have that make people admire you. Otherwise, you will only be disliked.
At this time, more people still pay attention to being well-matched.
Although the Chang family was not a wealthy family, they were not poor scholars either. Chang Hui was raised in the palm of his hand by the Meng family.
How could it be possible for a daughter to marry and suffer in the countryside? What's more, Bai Anbang is just a country boy without any fame.
In terms of advantages, he only knows a few more words than a country man, but he is a weakling who cannot carry his shoulders or lift his hands. If he has no fame, such a person is most useless in the countryside.
Mrs. Zheng really dared to open her teeth, but she didn't know where her face came from. It was just a matter of forcefully promoting his son at her banquet. Seeing that she was unhappy, it should have been appropriate.
In addition to being hated by others, there is no benefit to be gained from forcing someone's daughter.
Seeing Meng's forbearing look, Bai Yunxi only felt guilty because she didn't do a good job.
Fortunately, Meng has a good temper and is a guest at her home. Some things she said were too unpleasant to say. If the place is changed, if Mrs. Zheng wants to leave peacefully, there is no way.
After discovering this, Bai Yunxi directly separated her from the Meng family, and winked at Zhang family, asking her to send Zheng family away.
Mrs. Zhang had been busy in the kitchen. Although she didn’t know what happened, she could guess a little bit about Mrs. Zheng’s temper, so she took people directly to the kitchen.
"This is an egg roll that Du Shi and I made together, with chopped Sichuan peppercorn leaves added to it. Everyone said it tastes good. You can take this bowl back and let Anbang taste it while it's still hot. I don't think the kid is here. Attending a banquet."
Seeing the dishes Zhang prepared for herself, Zheng was extremely moved.
"Her cousin still feels sorry for Anbang. You have your heart. That child Anbang wants to save face and refuses to come. She is still quarreling with me at home. I feel bad when I see her."
"The child is older and has a lot to think about. It will be fine after a while. I have been putting this in the pot to simmer. It tastes the best right now. Take it back quickly and let my eldest nephew comfort his belly."
As Zhang said, she put the bowl directly into the basket and covered it with floral cloth.
"This bowl happened to be borrowed from my house. When you use it, you can just send it to my house.
"Hey, you're still interested, I'll take it back and let Anbang have a taste." Mrs. Zheng carried the basket, looked at the scholar ladies talking and laughing in the yard, gritted her teeth and turned around to leave.
Anyway, she had said everything that needed to be said. Meng should have understood what she meant. She would let Yun Xi talk to her later, and then she would invite a matchmaker to come to propose marriage.
If you have three matchmakers and six betrothals, you can get married by the end of the year.
Anbang has his father-in-law, a scholar, to help him, so he can pass the examination not only as a boy student, but also as a scholar.
Zhang followed her gaze and looked over, still confused, but now was not the time to ask, so she didn't speak.
After sending Mrs. Zheng away, Mrs. Zhang returned to her seat and drank some tea to smooth her throat. Looking at Mrs. Song's thumbs up at her, she silently came closer.
"What's going on?"
"Your hostess treats this place like a blind date party. She is looking for a wife for her son. She offends someone without even realizing it."
Mrs. Song shook her head. She had never seen such a blind person. She didn't even take it seriously if she tried to stop her overtly or covertly. She couldn't break up with her on the big day. It would not look good and the owner of Yunxi would lose face.
If you can't even manage a banquet, it will only make people look down upon her even more, thinking that they are country folk who just eat fishy food when they see it.
After listening to Mrs. Song's reminder, Mrs. Zhang stared and thought about it for a moment, and immediately became clear.
I couldn't help but shake my head in my heart. This Zheng family has become increasingly unreliable in recent years.
When Bai Yunxi saw Mrs. Zheng leaving, she smiled at Mrs. Zhang. Before she said anything, the children who had gone out to play around came back one after another.
The first person to walk in was Xiao Wu. Although this boy straightened his expression when he walked in, he was still young and inexperienced, so he couldn't hide his emotions at all.
Anyone with some experience can see through it at a glance.
Baiyun Xi raised his head and glanced at the sky. The sun was shining brightly and the sky was clear. It was a good day. Why weren't you happy? What about the rest?
As a master, it would be rude to come back alone.
Before she could speak, she saw Xie Yu behind her with a smile on her face. The two of them were one behind the other, their expressions completely different. Bai Yunxi looked at him and immediately became curious.
"The place where Aunt Bai lives is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the scenery is very beautiful. If I had known this, I should have come to see it a long time ago. I really missed a lot of time, and I feel very regretful."
Listening to his pretentious tone, Bai Yunxi shook her head helplessly.
"This place in the countryside only has this idyllic scenery. If you like it, you can come here for a walk during the change of seasons. Try the authentic farm food. As for the game in the mountains, it can only depend on luck. "
For ordinary people, game in the mountains and forests is indeed not easy to come by. Baiyun Xi’s words are indeed irrefutable.
Unfortunately, Xie Yu was thick-skinned and didn't care at all. He just waved his hand.
"I know that wild game in the mountains is hard to catch. If you want to eat it, you have to find some local hunters to buy it, but it's troublesome and I'm not interested in it. It's enough to have chickens and ducks raised at home."
"Hasn't my fourth brother already started raising ducks? I will definitely come to try them later."
As soon as the voice fell, Xiao Si rushed in with a roar just as he walked to the door.
"Whoever wants to eat my ducks, whoever dares to touch my ducks, I will never let him go."
As soon as these words came out, the whole yard was silent, and then there was a burst of laughter.
"Haha..."
Even Bai Yunxi couldn't help laughing. She knew how much effort Xiao Si had put in raising ducks during this period. It was really hard. It's not an exaggeration to say that he regards ducks as his life. Wouldn't he be furious when he heard that someone wanted to eat his ducks?
"You bastard, you're making a lot of noise, you don't even understand what I'm saying, are your ducklings the size of a fist enough to fill people's teeth?"
Xiao Si heard it, yes, his ducks haven't grown up yet.
"Hehe... Sorry, I'm focusing on the ducklings now, I'm too sensitive to the word duck."
