Chapter 106

The agreement between Chang Xi and Cao Jingxiu to meet at the academy was not reached, and on the first day of going to the academy, the Chang family received invitations to a banquet from the Cao residence early in the morning.

Cao Jingxiu came over to deliver it in person. The handwriting on the flower post was clear and beautiful. He said he wrote it himself, so Chang Xi read it over and over again.

Cao Jingxiu coughed twice, and asked nervously, "The time is this afternoon, can you come?"

"You can come, I'll tell my mother not to cook in the afternoon."

Chang Xi turned around with the flower post, bouncing about to enter the house.

"Hey, wait a minute."

Cao Jingxiu called out again.

Chang Xi stopped and turned around in doubt: "What's wrong?"

"Is there anything you particularly want to eat? I can ask the cook at home to make it."

"Huh? Can I order food when I go to a banquet?" Chang Xi has never heard of it, whether it is in later generations or in Taihang Village.

Cao Jingxiu blushed at this rhetorical question.

How could "I" Chang Xi answer like this?
Shouldn't she just say what she likes to eat and what she doesn't like to eat?

Cao Jingxiu couldn't understand why the ten-year-old girl reacted so quickly, which caught him off guard.

"What are you? Why are you hesitating?"

Chang Xi blinked her watery eyes and looked at him innocently, as if seriously waiting for an answer.

Cao Jingxiu was watched by Chang Xi in front of him, and by Cao Wu in the back. He felt that the weather was extremely hot today, which made him want to sweat uncontrollably.

"I just think it's too hot. I'm afraid you won't be able to eat it. It would be bad to waste food. My family will prepare a lot of good dishes for you."

"That's it! Well, you're right in thinking about it. When it's hot, people tend to lose their appetite and eat less. Don't you have a mountain of fruit trees in your house?"

"I think it might be better to cook more cold dishes, cut more fruit plates, and squeeze the fruit into juice instead of hot tea."

Chang Xi gave advice sincerely, Cao Jingxiu listened carefully, and finally asked Cao Wu to go with him.

He was in a hurry when he left, but Chang Xi was left where he was.

"Are you in such a hurry?"

"You left without saying goodbye?"

Chang Xi only felt a flock of crows flying over his head.
Wen Furong, who got the post, pretended to know it even though she was illiterate, opened it up and read it. The three brothers squeezed over to read it, but none of them knew what was written on it.

An illiterate family stared at each other with wide eyes. At this time, they all realized the importance of reading, especially Wen Furong, and she felt sorry for her.

"I never thought in my life that I would receive a post from the landlord's family. It's a pity that he has such a good word."

Chang Xi comforted at the side: "Mother, don't say that, let's save the flower post, and study hard later, we can recognize every word on it."

Chang Ping couldn't help nodding: "Yes, mother, when we learn it, we will go home and teach you how to read, and you can also read in the future."

Wen Furong smiled shyly: "I'm old, why learn to read and write? You just need to know how to write and write."

Chang Xi took her mother's arm and shook it: "It is agreed that the whole family will make progress together, my mother must not fall behind."

Wen Furong can't help it, if Chang Xi keeps shaking, she will faint.

"Okay, okay, I'll study with you, okay?"

Only then did the four brothers and sisters laugh, and everyone began to change into new clothes, wash and make themselves clean, especially the three brothers, and the bride bought forehead wipes and ornaments on their heads.

Chang Xi changed into a lilac-colored headband with a white and green jasmine embroidered on it.She washed and hung up the bright red headband, and the whole family went out neatly.

The entrance of Cao's house was extremely lively, and the housekeeper Cao and Mr. Cao greeted the guests at the door.

As soon as the Chang family came, they were warmly invited into the house, and the eldest lady personally accompanied them, and sent them to Mrs. Cao. Cao Jingxiu had changed into Xinqing's clothes at this moment, and sat beside grandma.

Today, the old lady is wearing a crimson purple silk color embroidered dress. The fabric is soft and smooth, and her gestures are light.

Chang Xi took a closer look at the old lady's complexion and found that she was indeed well. She couldn't help being surprised that the master who wrote this prescription actually had the medical skills of rejuvenation. Such an expert born in this world made her curious.

Wen Furong and her four brothers and sisters had seen the ceremony, and they were about to retreat to the side and wait for the banquet to start, who knew that the house was full of guests, the old lady ordered Chang Xi and stepped forward.

Chang Xi walked up to the old lady and stood next to Cao Jingxiu.

In the afternoon, he changed into new clothes, with snow-blue head and tail, which just echoed Chang Xi's lotus-colored dress.

Changxi's lilac-colored headband adds a finishing touch.

This is a color system, the two stand together, eye-catching.

The people who came to the banquet were from various backgrounds, and several families were invited from the village and each village, while the rest were from Shitou Town, with close business contacts.

There are women from the town here, sitting beside them and laughing.

"This girl was born beautifully, standing side by side with Mr. Cao, they are a pair of golden boy and jade girl."

When the distinguished guest spoke, someone responded: "That's right, our old lady is as kind and kind as Guanyin Bodhisattva. Aren't they two virgins under the lotus seat?"

After being teased, the two of them were shy, Cao Jingxiu was aggrieved, and Chang Xi glared at him coquettishly.

Chang Xi quickly looked away, not noticing that Cao Jingxiu's ears were slightly reddened, he was also cramped, not much better.

The person who was joking was even more happy when he saw this: "Oh, I will send the portrait of Guanyin at home to the old lady as soon as possible. Don't say I made it up, you will know when you see it."

"The two of them are quite similar to that painting."

Wen Furong had never had a serious relationship with the wives of merchants. As Chang Xi's mother, although she was reserved on such occasions, she endured the anxiety and spoke for her daughter.

"Golden boy and jade girl, isn't that a fairy-like figure? My Xibao has a thin skin, please stop making fun of me, ladies."

The ladies smiled and talked about other things, but these jokes caught Chang Xiuzhu who had just entered the room and listened to them.

Originally, when she received the flower post, she wanted to show her face earlier, but when she was dressing up, the more she thought about it, the more angry she became.

Mrs. Cao's serious illness, how can I just get better?
It's really evil, this matter is different from the trajectory of the previous life.

At this point in the matter, I can only blame her for not being able to use those helpers. Chang Wen's success is more than failure, and now he has disappeared.

The sisters of the Fan family are too young to be responsible.

Gouwa can't even deal with a beast, and now that Chongxi's affairs are out of order, she can no longer place her hopes on others.

Chang Xiuzhu once wondered if her own rebirth would invisibly change the fate of others. If she disrupted the original track, could she also put what should have happened back on track?

She thought a lot about what she should do and how she could try to change the status quo!
