The table was ready, and the two families moved into the dining room.

The table was full of well-cooked chicken, duck and fish, and Mei swallowed wildly when he saw it.

Although Xu's family is not poor, they just go to the market to cut a catty of meat and vegetables to fry for a few days.

A good dish like this can only be eaten during the Chinese New Year.

Moreover, the Xu family's meals are all cooked by Mei herself. Her cooking skills are average, and she can only cook average-tasting dishes with good ingredients.

"Quick seat, fast seat..." Mu Na called Mei's mother and son to sit down.

Mei Shi swallowed again after sitting down, her eyes were glued to the shiny roast chicken.

Zheng'er wanted to take her out to have a good meal yesterday, she thought that she would come to the General's Mansion today, and the food in the General's Mansion must be as good as that of a restaurant, so she refused and saved her stomach to come to the General's Mansion to eat.

I took her to eat steamed stuffed buns in the morning, and she only ate two vegetarian ones, so she was already hungry now. Fortunately, the banquets in the General's Mansion opened early, if she waited a little longer, her stomach would growl, and it was bound to be a joke.

Song Heng picked up the wine glass and said something to thank Xu Zheng. After drinking the wine in the glass, he picked up the chopsticks and greeted Mei and Xu Zheng to eat.

Meishi ate politely at first, but the dishes were too delicious. As she ate, her manner of eating became rude. Before she could swallow the food, the chopsticks stuffed the food into her mouth again.

Seeing Mei's eating, Mu Na, Song Ziyu, and Song Ziling were all a little surprised, but they didn't make fun of her or look down on her.

I thought it might be because Mei Shi didn't eat these dishes often, and thought they were delicious, so he couldn't help but eat more boldly.

Xu Zheng frantically hinted to his mother, but his mother didn't even notice it, and finally stepped on his mother's foot, so that the confused Mei could react.

Mei looked at the vegetables in her bowl and the bones in the bone plate, licked the oil on her lips, and said with some embarrassment: "The dishes made by the chef of the general's family are also delicious, and it's the first time for a woman to eat them." How about such a delicious dish?"

She said this to explain that she ate like this, not because she was greedy, but because the food was so delicious.

Mu Na smiled and said, "Eat more if it tastes good."

As he spoke, he even picked up a chicken leg for Mei with his own chopsticks.

Mei thanked her and continued to eat, maybe she had some food in her stomach, so she ate more politely.

After dinner, Mu Na led Mrs. Mei to the flower hall to talk and drink tea. Xu Zheng and Song Ziling followed Song Heng to the study, saying they were discussing the art of war.

Song Ziyu listened in the flower hall for a while, then left with the excuse that he was not feeling well, and went back to his yard.

Song Heng, Xu Zheng and Song Ziling chatted about the art of war in the study, and Song Heng sent Song Ziling away.

Seeing that the general sent the young general away, Xu Zheng probably guessed something, and was quite excited.

"Xu Zheng, what do you think of Ziyu?" Song Heng looked directly at Xu Zheng and asked.

Xu Zheng tried his best to control himself, trying his best to show a calm and embarrassed expression, "Miss is very good."

"Do you like her?" Song Heng asked again, he never likes to beat around the bush.

Xu Zheng immediately showed a terrified expression, rubbed his hands on his thighs awkwardly, lowered his head and said: "Miss is a noble lady of gold and jade, Xu Zheng is a reckless man who dare not think about it."

Seeing this, Song Heng smiled, "It's just that I don't dare to think about it, so I like it?"

"I..." Xu Zheng blushed embarrassingly and was speechless.

Song Heng looked at him and comforted him: "Don't be afraid, I'm not going to say anything about you or blame you."

"I'll just ask you once, do you want to marry my daughter Song Ziyu?" Song Heng looked at Xu Zheng seriously and asked.

Xu Zheng opened his mouth to answer, but he didn't say a word. After a while, he frowned again as if he had made up his mind, and said bravely: "I know that I am not worthy of a young lady in a humble job, and I never I don't dare to think about it, but I like the eldest lady in my heart, and I never expected to marry the eldest lady."

"The general asked me if I wanted to marry, and I naturally wanted to. If I marry the eldest lady, I will definitely treat her with my own life, love her and respect her so that she won't suffer any grievances." He said firmly and loudly.

Song Heng was very satisfied with Xu Zheng's words. He nodded and looked at Xu Zheng with admiration.

The study was quiet for a while, and Xu Zheng could hear his heart beating faster because of excitement and nervousness.

"Go back and discuss with your parents. If they agree, you are willing to wait another two years, then find a good day and find a matchmaker to come to your door to propose marriage." Song Heng looked at Xu Zhengdao.

The latter stood up in shock, his face full of disbelief.

It's over, his marriage with the eldest lady is over!

Xu Zheng was crazy with joy in his heart.
