There was fruit wine sent from Yunzhou, and strong liquor brewed by the Huang family using Cheng Yue's recipe. Many guests left the Cheng family drunk.
In the end, only the eldest princess and Madam Xue remained.
The two men didn't drink much and chatted with the women of the Cheng family with a smile on their faces.
"Third sister-in-law, Hanyu, have you noticed that Her Royal Highness the Princess and Madam Xue don't get along? Besides, it seems like they've been here for a while now because of something!"
Cheng Yue, Ji Feifei and Xue Hanyu were sitting aside chatting, and she asked curiously.
After arriving in the capital, the Cheng family called people in order.
Cheng Wu is the third child, so Ji Feifei is his third sister-in-law.
The second sister-in-law is Cheng Minliang’s wife Gao.
Xue Hanyu blushed and lowered her head, not daring to look at her two good sisters.
Of course she knew what her stepmother was here for.
Her stepmother meant to marry into the Cheng family.
She has two younger sisters, one of whom is engaged to the Prince of Nannan, and the other is fourteen years old and is also engaged.
The Prince of Nannan was the one who was prepared for her before.
Mrs. Xue took a fancy to the Cheng brothers. After watching the martial arts exam, Mrs. Xue took a fancy to Cheng Jinxing and thought that Cheng Jinxing would be a good son-in-law.
Xue Hanyu's third sister is only fourteen years old and has not yet reached the age of marriage. She has a personality similar to her elder sister. She is slow to realize things and has no intention of taking action towards Cheng Jin.
So, after hearing Mrs. Xue and Prime Minister Xue talking about this matter, Xue Hanyu plucked up the courage to tell them that she and Cheng Jinxing were in love with each other, and they had agreed that after Cheng Jinxing became famous, he would come to the Xue family to propose marriage.
She didn't want her stepmother to arrange a match for her.
After hearing this, Prime Minister Xue and Madam Xue were stunned and could not believe it at all.
Because, in their opinion, Xue Hanyu and Cheng's aunt are of the same generation, so how could she be related to her nephew?
Finally, after repeated questioning, Xue Hanyu told them about her relationship with Cheng Jinxing.
Prime Minister Xue was a little reluctant to accept it at first, but Madam Xue persuaded him.
Prime Minister Xue made a request: if Cheng Jin could not get the first place in the imperial examination, this matter would not be accomplished.
Look, the palace examination hasn't even started yet, but Cheng Jinxing has already won the first place in the metropolitan examination. This thing will definitely be successful.
Mrs. Xue had always gotten along well with Gu Xuelan, and recently she discovered that the eldest princess also seemed to want Cheng Jinxing to be her son-in-law, so she brought Xue Hanyu to the Cheng family.
Moreover, she was going to take advantage of today's announcement of the results to verbally settle this matter.
The more she looked at Cheng Jinxing, the more satisfied she became!
Mrs. Xue was not a vicious stepmother. The main reason was that Xue Hanyu had not grown up with her, and Xue Hanyu was a daughter who would eventually get married, so she would not make things difficult for her.
Moreover, because Xue Hanyu did not grow up with her, she felt more guilty towards Xue Hanyu. After all, half of the reason why Prime Minister Xue married a second wife was to take care of the young Xue Hanyu.
Who knew that the Shen family would be so forceful in taking the child away.
So, now that Xue Hanyu is back, Mrs. Xue wants to satisfy Xue Hanyu in everything with the mentality of giving her as much compensation as possible.
If conditions permit, she would be willing to pick the stars in the sky for Xue Hanyu if she wanted them.
Only ten days after returning, Xue Hanyu had already integrated into the Xue family and no longer felt that it was not her home.
This is all thanks to Mrs. Xue!
"Look at her!"
Ji Feifei turned Cheng Yue and asked Cheng Yue to look at Xue Hanyu who was looking absent-minded with his head down.
