Chapter 79, everyone's discussion
After dinner, Yan Zhigao and Mrs. Li began to send away the people who came to the banquet.
Inaflower was not idle either, followed the adult, and said goodbye to the little girls who came.
"Yan Yiyi, my family will also hold banquets from time to time. I will post you when that happens." The little girl Zhou Jingwan still looks arrogant, but after a day of contact, her attitude is much better than when she first met, at least not. Look at people with your nose again.
Daohua smiled and nodded: "Then I can wait."
In these days, Mrs. Li has made up for her in Xingzhou's big family home. Zhou's family is a well-known family in Xingzhou. She has been in ancient times for so long, and she hasn't visited the ancient giants.
Zhou Jing nodded firmly, and then followed Madam Zhou into the carriage, holding a flower basket full of wildflowers in her hand.
After getting on the carriage, Mrs. Zhou glanced at her little daughter. She knew her daughter's temperament. Because she was favored at home, she easily looked down upon her and was very arrogant.
"Why, I really like the Yan family girl?"
Zhou Jingwan played with the flower basket in her hand, first nodded her head, and then shook her: "I don't like it that much, but she is not the same as other girls, so she won't always get along with me and get along with me. It's comfortable."
Ms. Zhou glanced at the flower basket in her daughter's hand, and smiled: "I heard that you put in a flower basket for a day today?"
Zhou Jingwan nodded again and again: "It's still the game." She moved the flower basket to Mrs. Zhou's eyes, raised her head, and said with an air, "How about it, my daughter is beautifully inserted, I won second place!"
Hearing this, Mrs. Zhou raised her brows. In the past, she was a Hakka. Whenever it involves talent display, regardless of her strength, her girl will get first. Of course, she knows that it is all because of the Zhou family's face.
This is the first time I heard that her daughter did not win the first place, she was a little strange.
"Then who got first?"
Zhou Jingwan: "Qian Bilan won first place, mother, let me tell you that the flower basket she put in is so beautiful. I originally wanted to change it with her, but Yan Yi said that this is the first time in our lives that we have put in independently. The flower baskets are of special significance and should be held by themselves."
"Daughter thought for a while and thought she was right. If I took Qian Bilan's flower basket back home, everyone would say it looked good, but if I inserted it myself, grandpa would definitely praise me."
Ms. Zhou nodded her daughter's head: "It's really hard for you to know that I used my brain." After finishing speaking, she took the flower basket and looked through it, "This girl from the Yan family has a coincidence."
I didn’t forcefully use my shortcomings to compete with the young ladies. I used the familiar things to attract the attention of the girls. I took control of the home court without making others feel uncomfortable. I was a man with a clear handle.
"Hey, what is this?" There was a bamboo pot in the flower basket!
Zhou Jingwan: "This is the jasmine tea that Yan Yiyi gave us, mother, this tea is delicious, even better than the West Lake Longjing specially given to grandpa by the second uncle."
Ms. Zhou remembered the tea she drank in Mrs. Li’s courtyard and nodded: “It’s really good. The Dragon Boat Festival is about to come. Now that you have received tea from others, you will have to send something back during the Dragon Boat Festival.”
Zhou Jingwan: "Well, I will go back and think about it."
Lagged behind in the Tongzhi family carriage, Master Tongzhi was also talking to his wife and daughter about the situation of visiting the Yan family.
Qian Tongzhi: "Judging from the dishes of this banquet, our newcomer Zhizhou should be considered a clean person."
Mrs. Qian hesitated: "Maybe. Master Yan deliberately made it for everyone to see? I have heard that before this Master Yan was re-elected three times as a magistrate, he hasn't risen a step further in 9 years. Maybe there is something in him. stain?"
Qian Tongzhi shook his head: "Is there really long hair and short knowledge, I really think that an official position is such a good promotion? It is all too normal for Yan Jiahan to be suppressed in the officialdom and to be credited for credit."
"Master Yan can be promoted directly from the seventh-rank county magistrate to the fifth-rank Zhizhou, and he can't do it if he doesn't have the ability."
Ms. Qian curled her lips: "I have heard that Master Yan was promoted this time because he was promoted to a noble person, but he was not promoted on the basis of his ability."
Hearing this, Qian Tongzhi sighed. His wife is considered slick and thoughtful in life, but because of her low birth, her vision is still too low: "It is a skill to be able to be in the eyes of nobles."
Sitting at the side, Qian Bilan noticed that her father seemed to be a little angry, and immediately changed the subject with a smile: "Father, mother, this flower arrangement competition, the daughter won first place. Look, this is the flower basket for the daughter."
Hearing this, Madam Qian was not only unhappy, but she looked at Qian Bilan accusingly: "You girl, why are you so pushy? Didn't the mother warn you that you want to order Miss Zhou's family? How can you be number one?"
The smile on Qian Bilan's face instantly froze, and the hand holding the flower basket was also stiff in the air, and the full of joy disappeared without a trace at this moment.
Qian Tongzhi glared at Mrs. Qian: "What are you talking about." As he took the initiative to take Qian Bilan's flower basket, he praised, "Lan'er has clever hands, and the flower basket is beautifully inserted."
Qian Bilan's face improved, he hesitated, and whispered: "My daughter must pay attention next time, and I won't compete with Miss Zhou Jia."
Qian Tongzhi waved his hand: "No wonder you, you are a guest. Naturally, you are a guest, so you can do whatever you want. The result of your competition should be decided by the Yan family, right?"
Qian Bilan nodded: "Not exactly, everyone has expressed their opinions."
Qian Tongzhi laughed and asked: "You little girls are not making trouble?"
Qian Bilan shook her head: "Ms. Zhou's family was a little dissatisfied at first, but later sister Yan didn't know what to say to Ms. Zhou's family, and Ms. Zhou's family stopped talking."
Qian Tongzhi looked down and thought for a while, smiled and said to Qian Bilan: "I will have time to spend more time with the girl in the Yan family in the future. This is a smart and smart person."
Qian Bilan agreed with her face: "Miss Zhou's temper is not very good, and she is also arrogant, but sister Yan is not afraid of her at all. Today Miss Zhou's dispute with Wang Yuwei of the convict's family, she did not blindly favor her. Miss Zhou's family."
Qian Tongzhi: "It's rare not to be charming."
Ms. Qian disagrees a bit: "What's rare, the Yan family just came to Xingzhou, this will offend the Zhou family, and Yan Daren, who knows the state, can't do it long."
Qian Tongzhi shook his head, too lazy to explain to his wife, and continued to talk to Qian Bilan.
At the same time, on the carriage of the court.
"This Yan family has a weak foundation, but this family-style food is done well." Wang Tongzheng is still looking back at the Yan family's food at the moment.
Mrs. Wang grinned unhappily: "Look at your prowess, can that kind of food be in your eyes?"
Wang Jiahua, the son of the Wang family, said a fair word for Wang Tongjuan: "Mother, the Yan family’s food is really good."
Wang Yuwei curled her lips: "Brother, you and dad are the delicacies of the mountains and the sea. Only when you eat too much, you will find the porridge and side dishes delicious."
Wang Tongjuan: "Okay, let alone some of these are gone. You two will talk to your dad about how the young master of the Yan family is?"
Wang Jiahua thought for a while: "The eldest son of the Yan family is very knowledgeable and stable."
Wang Yuwei: "The Yan family girl is not very good, she is a hidden traitor. Today, Zhou Jingwan and I had a little quarrel. We were able to deal with it by ourselves, but she had to intervene and take the opportunity to please Zhou Jingwan. I don't like her anyway."
Mrs. Wang: "If you don't like it, don't like it. I also took a look today. The Yan family's rules are not very good. The Li family is a merchant and looks virtuous. Being educated is so small that it is very embarrassing and conspicuous."
Wang Tongjuan touched the beard on his chin, and looked at Mrs. Wang: "Did you inquire about what I asked you to inquire about?"
Mrs. Wang shook her head: "Mrs. Zhou said nothing, Mrs. Tongzhi asked with a smile in front of everyone. Unfortunately, Mrs. Li seemed to have not understood, so he just turned off the words."
"Master, I look at the Yan family, and it doesn't look like you can make friends with nobles. Are you making a mistake?"
Wang Tongzheng did not speak, and felt a headache when he thought of what Senator Du had heard from others.
