Jiang Yingxue said: "It's because the ingredients are good, but my cooking skills are just average." She was telling the truth.
There was a table full of delicious food on the table. It was delicious and tasty, and it was a delicacy that mortals loved. But for the cultivator Jiang Yingxue, the food on the table was good, but it lacked the spiritual energy that attracted her.
Because they were used to eating the spiritual food at home, the old couple Lu Caiyun ate a little. Jiang Yingxue used a trick to make people mistakenly think that she had eaten, but in fact she did not eat a single bite.
At the banquet, the He and Lan families praised each other's children. The Lu Caiyun couple occasionally gave their praises as well.
Because Lan Tinghao was from Y City, which is about 2,000 kilometers away from J City, the He family's parents were reluctant to let their daughter marry far away. After all, it was too far away, and the father wouldn't be able to get to his daughter in time if something happened. And if something happened at home, their daughter wouldn't be able to return in time. They were most worried that their in-laws wouldn't be good and that their daughter would be wronged if she married far away.
But after two days of observation, the Lan family's parents were kind, Lan Tinghao was sincere in his marriage proposal, and he was a sensible child, and was very considerate to He Siqin. In addition, He Siqin was also determined to be with Lan Tinghao, so the He family's parents agreed.
Today, both the He and Lan families are very satisfied. The Lan family came with a good wedding date. This year there is only one good day, which is the first Sunday in two months, otherwise they will have to wait until next year.
Because He Siqin was pregnant, the two families decided to set the wedding date for two months later. Although they were getting married because of pregnancy, they still followed all the necessary etiquette, including the betrothal gifts and other things according to the J City regulations. Lan Tinghao also bought an apartment in a nearby community as a gift for He's parents to live in when they moved to Y City.
As they were about to part at the hotel, Lan's parents presented Lu Caiyun and Jiang Xianzheng with a gift bag containing an expensive tea set and tea leaves. Jiang Xianzheng, also a connoisseur of fine goods, had heard of the brand and gifted them a set of Linghua wine and a can of Qingxin tea in return.
Jiang Yingxue was wearing a storage ring on her hand, so even if there were no gifts in the car, she could quietly produce them.
On the way home, Jiang Xianzheng asked Jiang Yingxue, "Yingxue, how much did you sell this Qingxin Tea for?"
Jiang Yingxue said: "500,000."
Jiang Xianzheng said, "The tea set and tea leaves your aunt gave us today are about the same price. Our return gift is not shabby."
Lu Caiyun was surprised: "That tea set and that box of tea are so expensive?"
Jiang Xianzheng said: "Yes, we will use it when we get home."
Jiang Xianzheng likes to have good wine at home to use instead of hiding it in a corner of the house gathering dust.

Lan Tinghao and his family of three returned to the hotel. Lan's father Lan Xing'an and his mother Tan Xiatong were quite satisfied with today's dinner.
Although their family is not a top wealthy family, they are also a well-known family in Y City. Their son likes the little girl He Siqin, and she is pregnant. The old man in the family is very happy. They used to think that their daughter-in-law must be from Y City, and they must know her background and be of equal status. But this trip to J City seems to show that the He family is not bad and is honest and decent.
Because of their daily work and life, they are more meticulous in observing people.
Just today at the banquet, they noticed that the He family's grandparents were not in high spirits while eating, and occasionally saw them frowning while eating. Although the food in this hotel was not as good as that in the Y City Hotel, it was not so difficult to swallow.
At this time, Lan Tinghao, who was in another sea view suite, opened the gift given by He Siqin's grandparents.
"Xuehe Gourmet? I haven't heard of it, but the packaging inside and outside looks pretty good." Lan Tinghao had nothing to do after chatting with He Siqin, and He Siqin fell asleep, so he wanted to have a drink before going to bed.
He opened the box of wine. There were 10 bottles in total in the box, and he took out a bottle from the middle.
"Night Moon Flower Wine? Never heard of it. Let me try it." He took out the small wine glass inside, cleaned it, and poured himself a glass of wine.
After drinking a cup, he felt that his mind and body were dancing on the moon.
Two minutes later, he knocked on the door of his father's suite with wine and a glass...
