Chapter 242 Two Guests



Because there was still work to do tomorrow, the men didn't drink much. After they were almost full, they helped to clean up the battlefield. With more people, the work was faster, and they soon cleaned up everything. Whoever owned the things could take them home.

I fell asleep as soon as I got home.

Wenfu

"I didn't expect it! I really didn't expect it!" Prefect Wen said excitedly.

Mrs. Wen was extremely excited and said, "I really regret it. I risked my reputation in the first place. I beg and ask Wenwu's mother to finalize this marriage!"

The prefect Wen said, "Wenwu is a child with a promising future. He has the talent to become the top scholar. Madam, we have done the right thing by befriending the Xu family!"

Madam Wen said, "Even Die'er jumped for joy when she heard the news. I've never seen her so happy before."

Prefect Wen thought for a moment and said, "Madam, what do you think?"

Madam Wen said, "What else can I think? Anyway, I like Wenwu very much. If he can become my son-in-law, I will definitely support him with both hands."

Prefect Wen said, "The day after tomorrow, the government will send soldiers to announce the good news. I will go there in person then!"

Madam Wen said, "Okay, you have to fight for our daughter's honor! Die'er has been distracted lately, and it's probably because of Wenwu."

Wen Zhifu said, "I know. I will go and test the waters."

Mrs. Wen still felt uneasy and said, "No, I want to go too, but I have to marry Wenwu to my daughter Die'er!"

Magistrate Wen was at a loss for words and said, "Madam, you have always behaved dignified and steady. How come you have become so uncontrollable now?"

Madam Wen rolled her eyes at her husband and said, "Nonsense! This concerns Die'er's happiness, how could I not care about it?"

Magistrate Wen asked, "Are you so sure that Wenwu also likes our Die'er?"

Madam Wen said, "Don't worry. I've asked Wenwu's mother before. Wenwu doesn't have a favorite girl. Our Dier still has a chance. The two children will eventually develop feelings for each other if they spend more time together. How about we take Dier with us?"

Prefect Wen thought for a moment and said, "Well, Die'er doesn't have anything else to do anyway. You can go and tell her tomorrow. I think she'll be overjoyed."

Mrs. Wen also smiled and said, "Okay! It's getting late now, go to bed first. I'll talk to Die'er tomorrow."

Xujia Village

Early the next morning, Xu Chunsheng brought a few men to make a door curtain. Simply put, it was to make an arch with wood and fix it on both sides of the stone road.

There were a few big words written on it: Xujia Village welcomes you! Below it were a line of small words: Farmhouse, fishing, crayfish, fruits, beautiful scenery, food, drink and fun, everything you need!

It was lunchtime when Xu Chunsheng came back with a few people. He even came over to talk to the old man. He wanted to keep them for lunch, but they ran away faster than rabbits.

Just when the Xu family was having lunch, a noise outside caught the attention of the Xu family.

As soon as Uncle Fu opened the door, he saw a young man in brocade clothes and holding a folding fan standing at the door.

Uncle Fu asked doubtfully, "Sir, who are you looking for?"

"Are you the new concierge of the Xu family?"

Uncle Fu said, "I am indeed the concierge, but I am not new here!"

"Oh!" After saying that, he walked around Uncle Fu and headed towards the main house.

Uncle Fu said anxiously, "Young man, you haven't told me who you are yet! You can't go in!" Then he picked up a wooden stick leaning against the wall and limped after him, obviously thinking that this person was a bad guy.

"It smells so good! Grandpa Xu and Grandma Xu, you guys are having dinner! I'm here just in time!"

The Xu family was stunned. They looked at this person who was so rude as soon as he came in and squeezed in with a stool. Then they picked up their chopsticks and started eating.

The Xu family was all dumbfounded. Even Uncle Fu, who was holding a wooden stick and standing there with his mouth open, didn't react for a long time.

"Chenyu! Are you Chenyu? Why are you here?" The old man was the first to react.

Su Chenyu was really hungry and said, "Grandpa Xu, please wait for me to finish eating. I'm starving."

The old man said, "Okay! Eat first to fill your stomach. There's tea here. Don't choke."

Wang also reacted and quickly poured Su Chenyu a glass of water, saying, "Drink a sip to relieve your breath."

Su Chenyu took the teacup and said vaguely, "Thank you, Grandma Xu." Then he tilted his head back and drank the tea in the cup.

The others stopped eating and just watched Su Chenyu eating alone.

After a while, Su Chenyu burped and finally felt relieved.

The old man then asked, "Chenyu, how did you become like this?"

Su Chenyu said with a depressed look: "I was walking halfway when I realized that the silver I brought with me was lost!"

The Xu family members looked at each other, not knowing how to comfort him.

"Oh no, oh no! Old man, there's another person outside! He looks very powerful! He's twice as big as me!"

Uncle Fu's voice came.

Su Chenyu hurriedly said: "Don't open the door! Don't let her in."

The old man asked doubtfully, "Chenyu, what's going on?"

Su Chenyu said, "Grandpa Xu, do you still remember the letter I wrote last time?"

The old man said, "Remember, you said your grandfather arranged a marriage for you."

Su Chenyu was in tears.

The Xu family finally realized what was happening. Wang asked, "Are you saying that the one outside is that girl?"

Su Chenyu nodded.

Wang said, "It's not good to lock people out like this. A woman followed you here from the capital. If you don't let her in, where can she go?"

Su Chenyu said, "Don't mention it. I originally just wanted to come to Xujia Village to relax, but halfway through, I found this fat girl following me. I have no choice but to let her continue to follow me!"

Wang said, "It's not a good idea to keep her out all the time! Where will she sleep at night?"

Su Chenyu sighed and said, "Okay! Let her in."

After receiving the order, Uncle Fu went to open the door and bring the person in.

Seeing the newcomer, all the Xu family members opened their mouths in amazement, sighing in their hearts: "This girl is too fat!"

Cui Cancan felt a little embarrassed. She didn't know the Xu family. It took her a while to muster up the courage to knock on the door after she saw Brother Chenyu enter the house.

When Su Chenyu saw Cui Cancan, she became more and more angry and said, "Why do you have to follow me? Does General Cui know?"

Cui Cancan murmured softly, "I asked the maid to go back and tell my father."

When the Xu family heard this, they were shocked! This person turned out to be the general's daughter.

Qibao looked at Cui Cancan and thought that this girl was probably only in her teens. The reason why she was so fat might be due to physical reasons or irregular diet. If this continued for a long time, it would put a great burden on her body.

Wang asked, "Miss, have you eaten?"

Cui Cancan hasn't eaten since morning, for fear that she would get lost, and has been hungry until now.

Smelling the aroma of the food on the table, he swallowed and shook his head.

Wang said, "Anyway, fill your stomach first. If anything comes up, we can talk about it after dinner."

Zhang immediately served Cui Cancan a bowl of rice and took a pair of clean chopsticks and placed them in front of her.

"Thank you." Cui Cancan took the chopsticks and thanked him, then couldn't help but start eating.
