Wei Ying glanced at the man sideways and sneered:

"They're a perfect match, a handsome man and a beautiful woman. Who are you to spout such sour things? You're acting like a gossipy, vulgar woman. Even such delicious food can't shut you up. Do you eat grass instead of rice? Otherwise, why do you always spout such nonsense?"

He came from a family of civil officials, and his words were sharp. With just a few words, he silenced the man, who turned red in the face and fell silent.

Lu Wenshan glanced at him gratefully, thanking him with his eyes.

"This young man is quite eloquent despite his young age. Could he perhaps come from a scholarly family? Is there any marriage prospect?"

Old Hu noticed Wei Ying's excessively beautiful features and couldn't help but point to Thirteen Sister beside him and chuckle:

"My granddaughter is the gentlest of all. If you, young master, do not mind, how about leaving you and taking her as your wife?"

Thirteen Sister glanced at Wei Ying shyly, then lowered her head with a bashful expression.

To everyone's surprise, Wei Ying didn't even blink, and slowly said:

“My father is the Vice Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices, and my grandfather was posthumously granted the title of Governor of Xiangzhou by His Majesty. I am not talented and currently only hold the position of Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review. If you are willing, sir, you can give this young lady to my family and let her be my concubine.”

Someone in the crowd trembled, and their gaze towards Wei Ying became somewhat awe-inspiring.

"You are extremely rude!"

Thirteen felt humiliated, her face flushed red, and the hand hidden under her sleeve suddenly turned into a claw.

"Thirteenth Sister, how dare you be so rude! Quickly step back and go see if Madam Xu needs any help!"

Old Hu had lived for hundreds of years, and his mind quickly caught on to the fact that the person posthumously appointed as the Governor of Xiangzhou by the current emperor was none other than Wei Zheng, who had once served as prime minister.

What's worse, Wei Zheng was a high-ranking official in the human realm when he was alive, but now that he's dead, he's a judge in Fengdu City. His grandson is not to be trifled with!

The topic was immediately put to rest, and he also gave up the idea of ​​playing matchmaker for Cheng Chumo.

"Uncle Hu, the dishes today are absolutely delicious. I wonder where you hired the chef. I'm afraid I'll never be able to taste these delicacies again once I leave this place. It's truly a great pity."

Wei Ying changed the subject as if nothing had happened, and Old Man Hu breathed a sigh of relief, a smile returning to his face.

"Young Master Wei, you may not know this, but for my new son-in-law to come to our house for a banquet today, I have invited a distinguished guest to cook. Such delicacies are something I rarely get to enjoy on ordinary days."

"Oh? What does Grandpa Hu mean by this?"

Wei Ying became interested.
