Chapter 161
"All you do is talk is sweet talk. Your son, besides having the same face as you, is just as quiet as a mule. I don't know who he inherited it from." Huo Yunyao sighed and spoke her mind.
"Madam, you're talking nonsense. Maosheng not only inherited my looks, but also your intelligence. Maosheng is just shy around strangers," Zhu Yunxian said in a low voice as he leaned close to Huo Yunyao's ear.
"Stop fooling around, the ladies and young misses will be here soon." Huo Yunyao shyly pushed Zhu Yunxian away, her face flushed.
Huo Yunyao had long since put her dislike for Zhu Maosheng out of her mind.
"Madam, when will you give me another daughter like you?" Zhu Yunxian did not let Huo Yunyao off the hook.
Zhu Yunxian continued speaking in her ear.
"Husband, stop teasing me." Huo Yunyao was so amused by Zhu Yunxian's antics that she probably wouldn't have stopped herself if she didn't have to meet the guests later.
After all, the reason she married into the Zhu family was precisely because Zhu Yunxian suited her taste.
He can provide himself with emotional value.
"Then I'll wait here for Madam to return?" Zhu Yunxian blinked and looked at Huo Yunyao with a teasing expression.

"Young Master, the Second Miss is hosting a banquet at the manor today. Would you like to go and take a look?" The servant walked up to Huo Yunxuan and asked cautiously.
"Why didn't he go back to the Zhu family to host a banquet? Why did he come here?" Huo Yunxuan asked, frowning.
He thought to himself, "Is my second sister planning to set him up on another blind date?"
Thinking about this gave him a headache.
He didn't like Meng Xin'er at all, but his eldest and second eldest sisters were very enthusiastic about trying to match them up.
"The second young lady said that the flowers at Jiyun Manor are in full bloom, so she invited the ladies and young women from Lijia County to come and admire them. I heard that she also invited the young lady from the Li family." When the servant mentioned the young lady from the Li family, he secretly glanced at Huo Yunxuan. These words were also spoken by the second young lady.
"She's here too?" Huo Yunxuan didn't expect Li Zhiwei to come as well. He had been busy with a lot of things during his trip to the capital and hadn't had time to see Li Zhiwei.
Thinking of this, he still felt a pang of longing for his beloved.
Thinking that his beloved would be arriving at the manor soon, Huo Yunxuan could no longer sit still: "I'll go find some clothes. Go check if she's here yet."
The servant was amazed to see his master so anxious; this was the first time he had ever seen his master so eager to see a girl.
It seems that our master really likes that Miss Li!
Thinking of this, the servant dared not delay and hurried to the place where Huo Yunyao was holding a banquet to find Li Zhiwei's whereabouts.
Li Zhiwei arrived late with Xu Qingshi. Upon seeing the Li family's carriage, Shen An'an went to greet them without hesitation.
"Zhiwei, you've finally arrived," Shen An'an said with a sigh of relief.
“Pretty auntie, I’m not Zhiwei, pretty sister is behind me.” Xu Qingshi happily poked her head out and said to Chen An’an.
"Qingshi, you're here too?" Shen An'an was delighted to see Xu Qingshi, but then, thinking about the dangers of the day, she couldn't understand why Li Zhiwei had brought Xu Qingshi along.
"Right, what's wrong? Auntie doesn't seem to welcome me?" Xu Qingshi noticed the change in Shen An'an's expression and asked, puzzled.
"How could that be!" Shen An'an smiled awkwardly; she was just worried that something might happen to him.
"Alright, let's get off the carriage quickly!" Li Zhiwei said helplessly as she followed behind.
Shen An'an looked at Li Zhiwei, but swallowed back the question she wanted to ask. After all, some things are not suitable to be said in front of a child.
"Miss Li, you've arrived. My wife is waiting for you."
As soon as Li Zhiwei got off the carriage, a maidservant stepped forward and said to her.
Shen An'an didn't expect Huo Yunyao's people to arrive so quickly.
