Peasant Girl Bookseller

Chapter 320 Bomb
When Wan Zhigao came to the house, it was just in time for Mai Xiang's daughter, Wan Youyu, who was full moon. Mai Xiang and Huai Ci set up a few tables of wine at home, and invited a group of relatives and friends to come to get together. , Jinbeile Mansion, Zhang Jia University Scholars Mansion, Cao Family, and Ji Xiaolan House.Because the Ye family is still observing filial piety, it is not suitable to go out.

Originally according to Maixiang's intention, the Uladomin family wanted to postpone the invitation for a day, but Uladomin knew that Maixiang's natal family could not come, so she insisted on using her natal family status to save Maixiang's face, because she was worried that the Wan family would not be able to come because of Mai Xiang gave birth to a daughter and underestimated Mai Xiang. After all, in this age when heirs ruled, a woman would not be able to straighten up without a son.

In fact, it was true. The Wan family knew that Mai Xiang had given birth to a daughter. Jiang was gloating. The old lady was very disappointed. Wan Baocai and Wan Chengyao were better off, because Mai Xiang was still young after all.

The problem is that Mrs. Zhao gave birth to five daughters in one go. If Mai Xiang followed her mother and Huai Ci refused to marry Xiao, this problem would be a big problem.

Mai Xiang and Huai Ci haven't thought about it that much yet, Mai Xiang is a modern soul, naturally not as patriarchal as the ancients, and Huai Ci loves houses and birds, as long as it is Mai Xiang's child, he likes it regardless of gender.

What's more, Xiao Yu'er has inherited her father's handsome appearance, with small and exquisite features, and she looks like a beauty at first glance, so the young couple are full of things to have a daughter.

When Wan Zhigao was led into the upper room, Mai Xiang accompanied Wu Ladomin, A Muxin, Mrs. Zhang Jia, Mrs. Agui, Mrs. Ji Xiaolan, and Liu Huilan and other female relatives in the back garden to watch the cuckoo. Ji Xiaolan, Cao Xueqin, and Ji Xiaolan are frequent visitors, and they have been drinking tea and chatting in the study for a long time. Adis, Abida, Yongjian, Zhaolian, and Zhaohan are sitting on the kang in the first room on the right side of the upper room to accompany them. Huai Ci teased Xiao Yu'er, and Wan's family sat and laughed in the hall of the upper room.

This time the Wan family came a lot, even the Wan Chengmei and Wan Chengmin families came, because the Duanyang Festival was coming up in a few days, and the two of them stopped by to give gifts.

The old man and the old lady were very pleasantly surprised to see Wan Zhigao, because Wan Zhigao had been living in the academy for the past few months and rarely went home.So Wan's family thought that he had been studying hard in the academy, how did they know that he had caused such a disaster?

"Come on, grandson, come to grandma quickly, let grandma see how my grandson lost so much weight, tsk tsk, studying is really hard work." The grandson was thin and wilted, and he thought it was due to the pressure of studying.

"Today is not Muxiu's day, why did you go home? How did you know you came here?" Wan Chengyao felt that something was wrong, because Wan Zhigao's expression was wrong, frightened, flustered, and depressed. A scholar who studies at ease in the academy?
"I, I..." Wan Zhigao naturally couldn't say this in front of everyone.

"Okay, why should the child come back? Let's talk about it when we go home, let the child eat first, what good things can there be in the academy?" Seeing that the grandson was in trouble, the old lady untied her waistband first.

"By the way, why are you all so well-equipped today? Are you all here?" Wan Zhigao felt a little strange seeing that both Wan Chengmin and Wan Chengmei had arrived.

"You don't know that Zhiyuan's daughter is full moon today?" Now even the old lady felt something was wrong.

"Then what are you doing here?" Mrs. Jiang was also confused, which song did this son sing?
Huaici heard the commotion in the back room, and thought of why Wan Zhigao came, but at this time, he must also be pretending to be confused, because Wan Zhigao has never admitted that those shops are related to him.

But pretending to be ignorant is ignorance, the visitor is a guest, Huaici still carried her little girl to the door, and said to Wan Zhigao: "Brother is here?"

Wan Zhigao had no choice but to walk over with a smile, glanced at the child in Huaici's hand, and said with a smile: "Second brother, congratulations, the eldest brother came in a bit of a hurry, and make up a big gift some other day."

"Brother is too far away, sister-in-law has already sent it off." Huai Ci smiled lightly.

"That's right." Wan Zhigao sneered after he finished speaking, and seeing several rich men standing beside Huaici, all with cold expressions, and one of them was staring at him with mocking eyes, he was startled, It's not easy to get close, so I have to retreat to the old lady.

Seeing her beloved grandson being treated coldly, the old lady felt very uncomfortable, but she did not dare to say anything, so she had to pull Wan Zhigao to sit beside her.

"Look at this skinny kid. I don't know what this academy will give you. Let me tell you, this time I'll just stay longer when I go home. The festival will be here in a few days. Also, it will be here in a few days." On the day when Zhihe leaves the pavilion, you happen to see her out." The old lady said while stroking Wan Zhigao's face.

"Pfft." Yongjian laughed beside him.

"What are you laughing at?" Abida asked.

"It's nothing, I heard that Changling's bastard took in a good man a few months ago, not only provided him with silver flowers, but also let him play casually. I have long wanted to see what kind of idiot he is. Bringing money to your door will make people abuse you." Yong Jian stared at Wan Zhigao.

Although Yong Jian is 15 years old, he still looks like he was when he was a child. He is not afraid of anything, and he is also a gangster. The difference is that he is not as evil as Chang Ling. He is public, high-profile, showing off, eating, drinking and having fun. , but never whoring or gambling, let alone robbing women and forcing girls into prostitution, and even has a bit of chivalry.

Because of this, he will be clear about Chang Ling's affairs.

"What do you mean by a good man?" Abida asked in a dazed way at the age of thirteen.

As for Zhao Han and Zhao Lian, because they were too young, they ignored these words directly. They were interested in the milk doll in Huai Ci's hands. They had never seen such a beautiful and delicate milk doll.

"If you're going to die, shut up." Addis is seventeen this year, and although he hasn't married yet, he already has a house-warming maid, so he stopped Yong Jian's words.

Yongjian glanced at the people in the room, then at Huaici's dark face, felt that the bomb he threw had a good effect, touched his nose in satisfaction, and retreated into the room.

The members of the Wan family were shocked when they heard the words of these children, and their faces were naturally a little ugly, because there were so many female relatives sitting here, and there were two unmarried girls, Wan Zhihe and Wan Zhilian, in the next room , these words are too outspoken, how does this look like your son's behavior?

However, even though the Wan family was dissatisfied, they didn't dare to say anything. They couldn't afford to offend these people?

But after the shock, everyone in the Wan family always felt that something was wrong. Why did the young master stare at Wan Zhigao when he spoke?And why is Wan Zhigao's face also weird?

Wan Baocai was the first to realize that his face was ashen. It was not the first time he had heard the name Chang Ling. He did not expect that this grandson would go the wrong way after all precautions. He was so wrong.

The room suddenly fell silent, and the Wan family, belatedly aware of it, began to ponder the meaning of Yongjian's words.

Fortunately, Maple Leaf came in at this time, saying that the banquet had been set, and the gentlemen were all in the room, Wan Baocai led his son, grandson and two sons-in-law to the table, Huaici accompanied Yong En to the table, Addis Yongjian and the others At a table, Huaici didn't have the heart to eat, he kept looking at Yongjian, worried that he would talk nonsense again.

Because Huaici understands that if Wan Zhigao's scandal is exposed, in order to balance Wan Zhigao, the Wan family will definitely expose their own scandal. This is one of the important reasons Huaici wanted to hide for Wan Zhigao. .

Yongjian didn't dare to say anything, he was a little afraid of Hongrong and Yongen, one was in charge of Zhenghuangqi's Jueluo school, the other was in charge of the clan, he dared not offend either of them.

Wan Chengyao originally planned to have a similar meal with Yongen Ji Xiaolan, but he was also frightened by Yongjian's words just now. He is not a fool, and Yongjian's words cannot be said for no reason. Still staring at Wan Zhigao, there must be something inside that he doesn't know about.

It was the first time for the two sons-in-law of the Wan family to meet Yong En and Hong Rong. They were not interested in Yong Jian's words, but wanted to make friends with Yong En and the others. Where dare to move at will?
Yongen gave the old man and Wan Chengyao enough face. After all, the other party is the elder of Huaici, and specially toasted a glass of wine. When Wan Baocai and Wan Chengyao came to their senses and went over to toast with the wine glasses, Yong En spoke , each other casually.

Wan Zhigao looked at Huai Ci who was sitting with Yong En chatting happily, and suddenly remembered Changling's broken leg. Yong En dared to abolish even his son because of Mai Xiang. If he offended Mai Xiang, the consequences would be What?The more Wan Zhigao thought about it, the more restless he became. The only one who can save him now is Huaici.

Not to mention that the men had their own thoughts on this meal, and the women did not have an easy meal.

Mai Xiang set up two tables in the small flower hall, one for the women of the Wan family, and one for Uladomin. In fact, the meaning of Yi Maixiang is to separate everyone. Set a table, but Uladomin did not agree, saying that since she appeared as Mai Xiang's natal family, the relatives would naturally sit together.She still wants to beat the Wan family.

Jiang Shi did not expect so many nobles to come to celebrate the full moon for Mai Xiang's daughter in person today. If it weren't for the pressure from Wan Chengyao and Wan Baocai, she would never have entered Huaici's house, but now that she has come Now, she also understands that today's meal may not be so easy to swallow.

The old lady didn't think too much about it, she was still confused by Cai Yongjian's words just now, she has always been concerned about Wan Zhigao, she can feel any slight changes in Wan Zhigao, so, just now Wan Zhigao The fear and embarrassment on Yongjian's face did not hide from the eyes of the old lady.

Something must have happened to this grandson. Reminiscent of Wan Zhigao asking her for several thousand taels of silver years ago, the more the old lady thought about it, the more something went wrong. She wished she could drag Wan Zhigao to ask what happened.
