At Madam Zhu's banquet for Li Ziyu, not only An Xin, but also Leng Xiangbai, Jiang Zhou, An Rui and Liu Boxing all came.

Liu Boxing's grandfather, Old Doctor Su, Jiang's couple, Uncle An and Aunt An were all invited as guests.

Even Sun Zhixian brought some people from the yamen to congratulate him personally.

Zhu Shijing was arranged by his mother to accompany Li Ziyu and greet guests for him.

Because Li Ziyu is already well-known, all the respectable people in Lin'an County have come, and many people intend to cling to this promising Xie Yuanlang.

They all brought their wives to exchange greetings with Mrs. Zhu, express their desire to marry, and even send their concubine daughters to be concubines.

Even Jiang Zhou and the others who came to visit were not spared. From time to time, people around the adults would go to inquire if they had a marriage contract. Everyone knew Sima Zhaozhi's heart.

Jiang Zhou, Liu Boxing, and An Rui's faces were dark. After seeing such a thing in this period of time, they were all numb.

Several people met An Xin's playful and teasing eyes, gave her a hard look, turned their heads and quietly blushed their ears.

Just when the banquet was about to start, the shopkeeper of Fuyuan Building hurried over, and Mrs. Zhu, who greeted the guests, whispered something to her.

Then she heard noisy arguments from downstairs, Madam Zhu glanced at the guests who were fully seated, gritted her teeth secretly, and said bitterly, "Let them come in and arrange a table in an unobtrusive place."

But Mrs. Zhu underestimated how shameless some people are.

Li Ziyu's cheap aunt, Mrs. Zhou, dragged a girl in a bright red dress up to the second floor, followed by a middle-aged man with cunning eyes.

Mrs. Zhou came up and walked directly to Li Ziyu, saying in a flattering tone, "Our brother Yu is really promising, and he got to know Yuan in the exam, your father must be very happy to know.

Your uncle and I specially brought your fiancée Huiling, brother, sister-in-law and sister to your celebration banquet today.

It's just that the people below don't know the rules, so they blocked your cousin, sister-in-law and younger sister. "

Red clothes
Most of the people who came to the banquet this time were from the county, and some of them knew about the past of the Li family and the Cao family, and they all looked at the thick-skinned Zhou family with disdain.

Those who don't know are also asking acquaintances in a low voice, and then disdain Zhou's actions at this time.

Li Ziyu's face was still expressionless when Zhou said that father, but An Xin and others who knew him well could still see his hidden anger from the subtleties.

The voice was neither high nor low and said quietly: "This lady is careful, my surname is Li.

If you just come for a meal, sit at the table and wait for the food to be served, if~"

At this time, the middle-aged man came over and said in a displeased tone: "Brother Yu, I am your father's cousin. How can you arrange my uncle downstairs for your celebration banquet?"

He glanced at the flushed Mrs. Zhu who was supported by Master Zhu.

The meaning is obvious that he has a lot of opinions on such an arrangement.

An Xin asked An Rui to hold back Li Ziyu and Zhu Shijing who were about to come forward. Since the last time this woman went to the academy to make trouble, she knew something about Li Cao's family.

In any case, she is an elder, and the reputation of a scholar is important, not to mention that there are so many guests here today, and there are always a few old-fashioned people who spread the news, which is not good.

Although An Xin is not very old, she is the teacher of Li Ziyu and others, and now she is the head of Wanhua Academy who is well-known outside.

So she stood up and took a step forward, and asked in a calm tone: "This aunt doesn't look like you are here to celebrate, and what kind of fiancee are you talking about, do you have an engagement token, an engagement document.

If not, you may face a lawsuit if you frame Xie Yuan with such nonsense.If you don't believe me, Sun Zhixian and Fang Xiancheng are also here today, I will take you there to ask. "

Sun Zhixian also looked here at this time. He had a very bad impression of the Zhou family who came to make trouble, so he took a look at Fang Jinhe, who was already the county magistrate.

Uncle Jiang Zhou, who understood his boss's expression, stood up. He knew that the Cao family had a Beijing official, so he spoke softly, "Cao Dong's family and his wife still obey the master's arrangement for dinner.

After all, today is Mr. Li's happy day, if it's really for his own good, we'd better talk about it later. "

Mrs. Zhou didn't want to hear these words, "What are you talking about, why don't I really care for him, I didn't see that I betrothed to him my beautiful niece from her mother's family.

As long as he nods, my aunt will immediately let them pay homage. "

"How shameless, just her niece is the daughter of a pig butcher, making her talk like a fairy, or Li Jieyuan is a high climber." Someone heard Zhou's words and whispered contemptuously.

The person next to him said, "Exactly, with the status of Mr. Li, she is really embarrassed to say that she can't marry any young lady."

Everyone "..."

The Zhou family was originally a farmer's woman, after relying on Li Ziyu's ungrateful father, she passed the Jinshi examination with Li's family money.

He got some money and blessings by fawning on him, and then he opened two shops in Lin'an County to gain a firm foothold.

Of course, he won't speak like a well-educated person, even if he is angry, he will keep a bit of dignity in his mouth.

"I don't care about your business, I want you to be troublesome. If you say these sour words, you can't see that our family Tzuyu is now admitted to Xie Yuan and want to marry his daughter to him.

I don't even look at who you are, what is my family's status now, and your daughter is worthy. "

These words can offend all the people present who have such thoughts, and they all stared at her angrily.

Mrs. Zhu saw that the Zhou family was getting more and more outrageous, so she didn't worry about anything. She ordered the shopkeeper of her own restaurant who came up to lead someone, and forcibly invited the shouting Cao family out.

"Li Ziyu, I'm your cousin, and you just watched them treat the Cao family like this?" Uncle Cao shouted dissatisfied.

Li Ziyu's voice was not too loud, just enough for everyone to hear: "My surname is Li, and besides, Li's family has nothing to do with Cao's family for a long time.

I have never met the person you mentioned, and when I was in my stomach, he had already written a cut-off letter with me.

I, Li Ziyu, have nothing to do with him. In the future, you will try hard to get along with him. I won't let you down again. "

Li Ziyu's tone of voice seemed calm, but everyone could tell that he was serious.

At that time, the eldest lady of the Li family, the big landlord in the county, got her husband to go to the capital to rush for the exam and sent a message back. After the poor scholar of the Cao family was admitted to the Jinshi, she hooked up with the noble girl in the capital.

The Li family has no sons and only two daughters. The eldest lady, Li Wanyan, was trained by Landlord Li according to the patriarch. How could she endure this matter and went to the capital with a big belly.

Later, I heard that the Jinshi of the Cao family, who had passed the examination, still insisted on marrying a noble girl from the middle of the capital, Pan Gaozhi, regardless of the eldest lady of the Li family who was looking for a husband thousands of miles away.
