The old lady of the Qian family put down her chopsticks. She also wanted to know if the master's concubine had married and how she was doing.
Just now, when she glanced at the yard, she seemed not to have seen Aunt Zhao.
Wang was so embarrassed that she dug her toes into the ground.
"No, not yet!"
"Why hasn't she gotten married yet?" The woman's eyes were filled with shock. "Your daughter seems quite old now, isn't she? Oh, look at my memory, she just finished the mourning period, right? Scholar's wife, I wonder when your daughter got married? And who is her son-in-law?"
The others also looked at Wang with leisure and mockery. The wives of scholars in the past were so noble. They didn't dress very well but they were not shabby either.
Look at the present?!
Tsk tsk tsk…
Without a closer look, they couldn't recognize her. She looked just like any other village woman. Her face was as wrinkled as their mother-in-law's, and she was dark and thin. One could tell at a glance that she had lived a miserable life in the past few years.
Wang couldn't sit still any longer, her face flushed red. She knew that these people were deliberately trying to humiliate her.
Zhao Xiaoyu's face darkened slightly. What did that mean? What were they doing at their family's banquet?
If it's difficult to save face for my aunt, then it's not saving face for their family.
"My aunt loves my cousin and wants her to stay at home for a while. My cousin Ruxin also can't bear to leave my aunt. My dear, there's no need to rush."
When Mrs. Wang saw the gloomy faces of Song and Zhao Xiaoyu, she knew that they were unhappy.
Things are different now, who knows how successful the men in their family will be in the future, they are no longer just ordinary peasants. She is willing to sell them a good one!
"Madam Zhao, your family's buffet today is really great. When we arrived, half of the village was full of wine tables, and it was very lively with people cutting meat and cooking. There are also many people coming today, and everyone wants to share in your family's joy. Which family can have two scholars at the same time? The father-in-law and son-in-law both passed the imperial examinations, which is now a good story in our county!" Madam Yuan changed the subject at the right time.
"Yes, today's banquet is really good. Where did you find the chef? The dishes are delicious."
"As long as it suits Madam Zhou's taste, I'm glad. As for the chef, his skills can't compare to yours. After all, he was invited from the capital. I'll always remember him every time I eat."
Madam Zhou covered her mouth with her hands and laughed, unable to conceal the pride between her brows. "Madam Zhao likes it, please come to our house more often. You don't know how much I like your Xiaoyu. It's a pity that you arranged it too early for her."
Song's smile was perfunctory, and if she took it seriously, she would lose. She had known this for a long time that they looked down on the peasants from the bottom of their hearts.
The clan leader's wife and the village chief's wife are both stupid. When did Song become able to speak and talk?
In the past, if she could hold back a fart in such situations, they would be considered losers?
Xianbo was very comfortable interacting with the lady, and Xiaoyu was no exception, not at all nervous.
Before they knew it, their family seemed to have changed a lot. The whole family...
Finally, all the people from the county town were sent away. Not only Zhao Dashu and his men breathed a sigh of relief, but everyone in the yard also breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally they left and could eat and drink to their heart's content.
The banquet was not over yet, Zhao Dashu was toasting at every table, while Xiao Lei went to deal with the villagers who were having a buffet. No matter what, he couldn't just give people a meal without showing up at home.
Zhao Dawen and Zhao Dayong were in a bad mood and did not touch the food on the table. After everyone left, the two brothers and the clan leader and village chief continued to drink.
"Second brother, come, let's have a fight." They were old friends, and the two of them felt particularly sympathetic towards each other today.
The village chief drank slowly with the clan leader.
"What are these dishes? Why haven't I seen them before?"
Since there was no one around, the clan leader took the attitude of asking questions if he didn't understand. This kind of scene might happen more than once in the future. Wasn't Xiaoyu about to get married? These people would definitely come again.
