"Sister Yue, the food in your house is so delicious. I'll come here often in the future. Please don't dislike me." Ye Xinxin's mouth was still bulging with snacks. She really found a good place. There were so many delicious foods in the Han family. She felt a little full just from eating all kinds of snacks.
"Xinxin, stop eating so much. If you keep eating, there will be many delicious dishes at the banquet later. Be careful not to be unable to eat anymore. Don't regret it then." Su Wenyue knew Ye Xinxin's temper and didn't bother to be polite to her. Especially since Ye Xinxin looked cute, Su Wenyue treated her like her own sister. Seeing the way Ye Xinxin ate, she said this.
"There are even better things to eat, so I have to save some space and can't eat anymore. But Sister Yue, why are the pastries in your house so delicious? Please pack some for me to take back." This child is really rude. He eats as much as he wants at someone else's house and now wants to take them away.
Su Wenyue just fell for it, how she wished she had a little sister in the past. She was the youngest in the family and was bullied and controlled by her two brothers all day long. She also wanted to have a little sister that she could control and let her have a taste of the domineering feeling of being an older sister. Unfortunately, she did not get her wish. Now she has two cousins, Lan Xin and Lan Fang, but these two cousins were brought up too well by their aunt. Rules and etiquette were engraved in their bones and could not be changed in a day or two. Even their intimacy was limited. They were not like Ye Xinxin, who was so outgoing that she would only be happy when she asked her for things.
Of course, it also depends on the person. Fate is a wonderful thing. Su Wenyue felt that Ye Xinxin was worthy of her attention, just as Ye Xinxin felt that she liked Su Wenyue at first sight.
"Okay, as long as you like it, I'll ask the kitchen to pack more for you later. A batch of fresh fruits and vegetables have been delivered from the farm, and I'll have someone send some to you later. As for the magnolia slices, if you like them, I have plenty here, and I guarantee you'll have enough." Su Wenyue said with a smile, looking at Ye Xinxin with full indulgence and doting.
"Sister Yue, you are so kind. You will be my real sister from now on." Ye Xinxin was so happy. Nothing could make a foodie happier than food. The look in her eyes when she looked at Su Wenyue was full of unprecedented warmth and joy.
There was a lot of "affairs" going on between the two of them, luckily the men from both families didn't see it, otherwise they would definitely not be happy.
However, it is true that Su Wenyue likes Ye Xinxin, but she also has other things to do. Her family is having a banquet today, and she doesn't have time to chat with Ye Xinxin in detail. She has always been thinking about Aunt Feng's affairs. Chinese New Year is a time for reunion, and although it won't be so soon this year, Su Wenyue still wants Feng Susu and her son to reunite with their family as soon as possible, although there are some selfish motives mixed in.
Su Wenyue felt something was not right on the Sun family's side. Last time at the Deng family, Madam Sun and her daughter had reversed their previous attitude and were no longer afraid of the intimidation from the Beian Marquis's Mansion. They tried to provoke her again and again. Although their actions were not too obvious, some clues could be seen from them. When combined with some of the Sun family's recent actions, it could explain some problems. If the Sun family had colluded with some of the Sun family's people, given their family's opposing stance with the Sun family, as well as new and old grudges, there would definitely be trouble.
At this time, in a courtyard, Han Lin and Wang were listening to the noise outside with gloomy faces, because the guards outside stopped them from leaving the courtyard.
Old Man Han and the people from the first and second wives of the Yang family had all gone out. Han Lin had to stay in the mansion because of his foot injury. Naturally, Wang was the one who took care of Han Lin in the mansion. The couple were quite happy at first, thinking that they could take this opportunity to curry favor with one or two powerful people. However, they didn't know that Han Yu had been on guard against them for a long time and actually sent people to guard the gate of the courtyard and didn't let them go out at all.
"What do you mean? Why are you stopping me? Do you know who I am? I am the brother of your master. If you offend me, I will let the fourth brother kick you all out!" Han Lin said in a bully-like manner, trying to intimidate the guards outside, but it was of no use and they could only stay in the yard obediently.
"Boss, what do you think the fourth brother means by this? Who do you think we are?" Wang said angrily.
"It's all because of you, you spendthrift woman. If it weren't for the strained relationship between you and Fourth Master's wife, Fourth Master wouldn't be so callous. You better shut up and take care of Fourth Master obediently. If you can't even raise a girl, you don't have to stay in our Han family, you spendthrift woman!" Han Lin took out his anger on Wang.
Wang moved her lips twice, but due to her current situation, she couldn't say anything. Her face was a little gloomy, and her eyes were full of gloom as she looked in a certain direction of the yard.
At the end of the banquet, Su Wenyue breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, nothing went wrong. Especially the food, which was praised by everyone.
At this time, after a series of reforms by Prime Minister Wang, the people below had a hard time, and those in the upper class were also affected. Although they were not short of food and clothing, their lives were indeed becoming increasingly difficult, and this was also reflected in the banquets, which were no longer as extravagant as before, and even if there was food, it was hoarded. Who knew what would happen in the future.
This banquet held by the Han family was enough to show that the family had a strong financial background. Not to mention now, even in the past, few families could eat such fresh vegetables and fruits in the winter, and they had to spend a lot of money to get them. The Han family actually had food from foreign vassal states. The guests invited to the banquet were not ordinary people. Everyone present had some knowledge and recognized that there were still a lot of food from foreign vassal states on the table. The most important thing was that the Han family's chefs were also good at cooking, and the food they made tasted amazing.
After a secret talk with Han Yu, Deng Chen knew that Han Yu's arrangements were proper, so he felt relieved. Seeing so many delicious foods, he ate them with great satisfaction. In the past, he always came here on short notice, and such big dishes as the ones in today's banquet would take time to prepare, and it would be too late to make them on short notice. This was the first time he had eaten them.
After Shangguan Wuyou finished eating, although he didn't show anything on his face, he was thinking in his heart that he would bring his wife here more often in the future. Good food, good wine and good friends are one of the greatest pleasures in life.
After seeing off all the guests, Su Wenyue felt like her whole body was about to fall apart. After washing up, she looked at her three children and was so tired that she fell asleep on the bed.

Han Yu came in and saw his wife like this, he felt so distressed, but he didn't have time to rest at this time. He kissed his wife on the forehead, tucked the quilt in, and went back to the study. Even Su Wenyue noticed the abnormality in the Sun Mansion, how could Han Yu not notice it, and he even knew what the Sun family was thinking, but Han Yu didn't know the trump card in Su Wenyue's hand, so he could only hurry up to make plans.
