There was an old man with a cane, about seventy years old, who was standing at the front with the support of a young man. A goat's beard under the chin, also white, is just refreshed, like a long-term pampered person.

The young man who was supporting the old man said, "This is the patriarch of the Zhou family, hurry up and ask Zhou Xiaocao to come out to greet the patriarch!" ”

Patriarch? Zhou's?

Feng Yulan's surprise was not small. She didn't expect that the patriarch of the Zhou clan, who had never been in contact with her before, would appear here, and bring this large group of people.

Feng Yulan accompanied her and said carefully: "My family has something to do, and there is only one concubine in the house, I'm afraid I will neglect you." ”

At this time, the clan concept is very strong, even if Zhou Xiaocao is a big official, and the patriarch of their family comes over, it has to be a seat. It's just that, in general, the patriarch will take the initiative to give way. Now, Zhou Xiaocao is not an official, but also a small citizen, so he naturally has to serve this patriarch well.

The young man was slightly angry, and said to Feng Yulan, "Going out? Don't you want to see me, do you? Doesn't it look like we're still here? ”

Although Feng Yulan was very angry in her heart, she didn't dare to say anything in front of the patriarch of the Zhou clan, but just said the truth: "Husband is indeed going out for something, if you know that you are coming, why do you have to meet each other, how can you avoid it?" ”

The patriarch finally spoke: "Okay, you two, don't say a word!" This little lady, I heard that Xiaocao has a chance to come out that week, not only in high school. I also became the guest of His Royal Highness the Prince, which is very honorable! So what. I'm here to celebrate. That's what, the gift though shabby. But it also represents our sincerity, so you don't need to set up a banquet! ”

As soon as the patriarch said this, Feng Yulan couldn't hold a banquet. said to the maid beside her: "Go and tell the kitchen to set up a banquet to entertain the patriarch and his party." ”

Then he said to the patriarch: "Mr. Zhou, please come in, the concubine must serve the old gentleman well, and she dare not slack off." Otherwise, when the husband comes back, he will definitely blame. ”

The young man put his arms around the patriarch. He said, "Don't bother, we're here to celebrate." ”

However, the footsteps were steadfast into the courtyard. The two of them took the lead, and dozens of men, women, and children behind them, "Hulala" all went in at once. Suddenly, this one said how unsightly this door was built, and the other said, how the pool was bent, and chirping. It's not lively. There are even more naughty children running around all the way, catching and playing, and the whole Zhou family chickens and dogs jump.

The old housekeeper Liu Xing hurriedly sent someone to take care of these little ancestors, and there were some valuable things. You can't let them break it. However, because there were too many people who came, the total number of people was larger than that of the Zhou Mansion, and it was more troublesome to take care of them. The old butler was in a hurry. Where has he seen such a scene since he came out with the knife? Even if it's the host's banquet. Those guests are not all well-behaved, where are they like these people. It's like the thief who came down the mountain, and the whole thing is the king of destruction.

There was no such a big living room for a while, so Liu Xing had to arrange everyone in the large courtyard of the second courtyard, and set up eight tables, at least six people sat on one table, and up to ten more people, and finally settled these ancestors.

There was no food in the house, so I had to send someone to buy it outside. It's just that it's close to evening, and the vegetable market is basically closed, and it's not easy to buy. In short, this group of people made a fuss about this courtyard, just like the temple fair during the New Year.

In a hurry, six meats, four vegetables and ten plates were placed on a table, which means "perfect".

Someone shouted, "Enough, enough!" Where can we eat so many dishes? Do you have to make up the auspicious number of 12 dishes? ”

Liu Xing's face was stunned, so he had to order softly: "Go, go to the back kitchen and say something, and add two more dishes!" ”

After a while, a fish, a chicken and two dishes were served on the table again. Another person over there shouted, "Oh, look, this is so polite!" Could it be that you are going for sixteen dishes? That's unacceptable! ”

Liu Xing's cold sweat came down from his head, and he hurriedly ordered again: "Hurry up, make the four famous dishes that the master handed over to the kitchen, hurry up!" ”

Feng Yulan sat with the patriarch in chief, watching the price of the dish rise to more than twenty dishes. Looking at this table full of dishes, those men, women, and children chewed according to the case, and their faces were full of food, Feng Yulan wanted to cry without tears.

The patriarch stroked his beard and said, "I said big lady, you are so polite! Although we, as the Zhou clan of the same clan, can be regarded as half of the masters here, you are too polite, aren't you! ”

Feng Yulan forced out a sad smile, and said astringently: "The patriarch made fun of it!" Yulan merchant background, I don't know the rules, and I'm afraid of snubbing you! ”

Before the patriarch could answer, the young man who had been holding the patriarch in his arms said, "Don't slack off, don't slack off!" The dishes are delicious, well, we all love to eat! ”

Kou Er pouted and said: "Of course it's delicious, these are all famous dishes invented by my master, just these four dishes, famous in the capital, cost four taels of silver!" ”

She really can't get used to these people who come to fight the autumn wind, the meaning of these people is too obvious, and they all seem to be reincarnated as hungry ghosts.

Not only did she think so, but Feng Yulan even despised them in her heart. You think, it turned out that you didn't care about Zhou Xiaocao and left him to fend for himself. Zhou Xiaocao is a scholar, he has no power to restrain the chicken, how can he survive alone in this world? Now that Zhou Xiaocao has just improved a little, you will start to fight the autumn breeze. I think at the beginning, when Zhou Xiaocao was struggling, why didn't he see you reaching out to help? Feng Yulan really didn't dare to think that if it weren't for her father recruiting Zhou Xiaocao as his son-in-law, what kind of land would he end up in.

As Chloe spoke, the young man began to notice the pretty girl beside him. Originally, he put all his mind on the dishes, but he ignored the beautiful scenery around him.

Sure enough, full of warm thoughts and lust, I can't deceive me!

This young man saw that Chloe's pretty face was white and red, and her lips were curled up because of anger were also so cute, she was really a rare beauty! Suddenly, his index finger moved, and he pointed at Chor and said, "Huh! This little girl looks very cute, I just lack a concubine to warm the bed at home, big lady, you just take her with me! ”

When Chloe heard this, she was immediately furious: "Think beautiful! Don't look at yourself like that! ”

The young man drank all the wine in front of him, stood up, blushed and roared, "How can you speak!" You're just a maid of my Zhou brother's brother, I want you to be a concubine, that's to promote you! Even if I want to wash the toilet, my brother will be willing, and you won't be happy with you! ”

Even Feng Yulan's anger soared when he heard this, and that anger was full of one grid, which could unleash three slashes, plus a thunderous blow!

Feng Yulan knows that this Kou'er and Ginkgo biloba are all girls who have been booked by their husbands, and sooner or later they will go to their own big bed, how can they be the masters and give them to others without authorization? Even if Zhou Xiaocao is willing, she herself will not want to! This is the person brought by the mother's family, even if there are a lot of girls in a big family, they didn't give away their own lady's dowry girl, right?

When Feng Yulan thought about it, the expression on her face changed. But if you are angry, you can't send it to these people, otherwise, you will give your husband a reputation for "bullying teachers and destroying ancestors". Feng Yulan had no choice but to yell at Kou'er: "The little girl is dead!" Don't get out of here and get your own way! ”

Chloe suffered this great grievance, and tears fell. But she didn't dare to have sex with her mother, so she ran away crying.

Feng Yulan said to the young man: "This girl has a wild temperament, I'm afraid that she will stain the lintel of your mansion, and I hope I don't want to be like her." ”

The young man shook his head: "That won't, that won't!" Eh, that girl over there is not bad, or give me that! ”

Feng Yulan turned her head to look, and saw that around the corner, Ginkgo was waving to her. (To be continued......)
