The Chi family¡¯s family banquet is held on the third day of every month. All the young and old of the Chi family who usually dine in their own yard gather in Mrs. Chi¡¯s yard on this day.
There was a large round table in the hall. The maids brought the dishes in an orderly manner and placed the bowls and chopsticks before everyone sat down.
The old lady is sitting in the middle, next to her are Chi Yuzhang and Mrs. Chi, followed by Aunt Liu, then Chi Weiwen and Chi Wanying.
Chi Yuzhang and Chi Weiwen were talking about things in the court. Their female relatives didn't understand, so they listened while eating.
"The prince did a good job in this matter." Chi Yuzhang praised him unabashedly.
Chi Weiwen nodded in agreement, lowered his head and took a sip of wine. Suddenly he remembered something and glanced at Chi Wanying.
Chi Yuzhang frowned when he saw his actions, "What's wrong?"
Chi Weiwen looked at his father meaningfully, "The prince seems to be interested in the second sister."
Chi Wanying was startled. The meat she held to her mouth stopped in front of her mouth. She looked at him in surprise, "I don't even know what the prince looks like. How could he be interested in me?"
Chi Wei sighed upon hearing this, "Last time I went out with you and wasahemcaught, the prince was by the side."
Chi Wanying choked, "We only met once, maybe the prince has forgotten about it a long time ago."
"He mentioned you yesterday, intentionally or unintentionally."
"" Chi Wanying put down her chopsticks and looked at her father and younger brother, her brows furrowed, her eyes clear and she hesitated to speak.
Speaking of this, Chi Yuzhang thought of the people who came to propose marriage recently, including many with excellent character, but he rejected them one by one. It was not that he felt that they were not worthy of his daughter, but that marriage was a lifelong matter, he thought. My daughter lives a happy and carefree life.
"Do you want to marry into the royal family?" Chi Yuzhang asked calmly.
Even though she was in purdah, she knew that there were many battles in the royal family, the undercurrents between men, and the intrigues between women.
She looked at her father firmly and said, "My daughter doesn't want to."
Chi Yuzhang nodded with satisfaction. He thought the same way. His daughter's weak body could not compete with the scheming women in the harem.
"Wanying, what do you think about your marriage? Recently many young talents have come to the house to propose marriage, and dad wants to find one for you."
Hearing this, everyone at the table changed their expressions. Chi Weiwen was the first to react and said hurriedly: "How can I get the second sister if the eldest brother has not married yet?"
Mrs. Chi also said: "Wanying's illness hasn't healed yet, so she shouldn't be in a hurry to get married."
The old lady and Aunt Liu also expressed dissuasion.
Chi Yuzhang felt helpless when he saw that the whole family was strongly opposed to his daughter's marriage, "I may not be sure about Wanying, but if it takes too long, Wanying's reputation will be bad."
¡°I don¡¯t know any of the daughters of the person who came to ask for a marriage. We don¡¯t know each other¡¯s character, so how can we negotiate a marriage.¡± Chi Wanying said softly.
"Then why don't you check it first, and try to contact a few of them?"
Chi Wanying pursed her lips, looked at him aggrievedly and said, "How much does father despise his daughter? He wants to marry her off so much. My daughter eats very little and is easy to raise."
Chi Yuzhang was happy when he heard this, his eyes were full of love, "What are you talking about? How could dad dislike you? If you don't like it, is it possible that I am willing to force you?"
¡°Then we¡¯ll bring this up later.¡± Chi Wanying said coquettishly to him.
"It's okay sister, if dad can't support you, I will support you. I promise you won't be hungry." Chi Weiwen said from the side.
Chi Wanying smiled and gave him a chicken leg, "You are still the best."
"Hey - is dad not feeling well?" Chi Yuzhang said.
¡°No, no,¡± she said angrily.
¡°Alas, it¡¯s hard for me to ask my colleagues to bring back the pastry recipe all the way from Qiongzhou.¡± Chi Yuzhang said with pretense of regret, knowing that his daughter loved tinkering with pastries recently.
Her eyes lit up, she quickly stood up, put a piece of chicken into his bowl, and said pitifully: "My daughter is wrong, can daddy not remember the faults of others?"
?¡
The family dinner came to an end with warm chat.
Chi Weiwen was telling anecdotes about some unknown family, making everyone cover their mouths and laugh.
Mrs. Chi thoughtfully served her half a bowl of soup.
Suddenly said: "I heard that you often see a handsome young man in your yard?"
Chi Wanying¡¯s hand paused slightly as she took the soup. Thinking of Yan Jinrong, she felt panicked. Maybe it was known that he had climbed over the wall.
Pretending to be calm, he said: "How is it possible? If there is, why don't I know about it?"
"Really?" Mrs. Chi looked at her doubtfully.
"When Xu Weiwen came to play in my yard, which new girl didn't know Weiwen?" Chi Wanying lowered her head and drank the soup and said nonchalantly.
Chi Weiwen looked up in confusion when he heard his name, "What's wrong?"
"You said you always love to come to my yard to play." Chi Wanying said with a smile.
Chi Weiwen was even more confused. After his eldest brother left, many things fell on him. He had been so busy recently, how could he always go to her yard to play.
Mrs. Chi nodded, "It's fine if you don't."
Chi Wanying breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the people at the table were not suspicious except Wei Wen who was a little confused.

After the family dinner, Chi Wanying slowly returned to the yard, as if walking slowly. When she returned to the yard, the man was already lazily leaning on the corner and waiting for her.
Chi Wanying was frightened when she thought of her mother's casual mention at the dinner party. She slowly walked over when she saw that there was no one around.
"Where have you been today?" Yan Jinrong lazily raised his eyes and asked.
"It's a family dinner."
She lowered her eyelashes and looked at her toes without interest.
"Still angry with me?" Yan Jinrong saw that she was unhappy and thought she was still angry with him for yesterday.
Chi Wanying glanced at him, and then said with some distress: "No, I just heard at the family dinner today that the prince is interested in me, and my father asked me if I would like to marry."
Yan Jinrong¡¯s breath stopped after hearing this, and the casualness in his eyes was replaced by darkness, ¡°Then what did you say?¡±
Chi Wanying originally wanted to say not to marry, but when she saw him looking straight at her, her words changed to: "It stands to reason that marrying the prince will bring you glory and wealth"
Yan Jinrong snorted and interrupted her: "Vanity."
Chi Wanying glared at him and continued: "But dad said there are still many people with good character who want to propose marriage. Let me try to get along with him after he has found them."
Yan Jinrong felt even more confused after hearing this. Maybe what she said was the truth, but he suspected that this was revenge for teasing her yesterday?
It really hit his heart.
"Dad also said"
"Okay, I have to leave first. I won't be here if something happens recently." Yan Jinrong dropped these words coldly and walked out over the wall.
Although the girl was delicate and beautiful, the words coming out of her pink lips were too annoying, so Yan Jinrong decided to go back and calm down.
Chi Wanying snorted slightly, seeing that he made her uncomfortable yesterday.
Returning to the house with the corners of her lips slightly curved, she saw a few maids at the door. Thinking of her mother's words, she felt a little uncomfortable, so she pretended to be casual and said to Xiao'er behind her: "Should we reduce the number of people in the courtyard? Those who talk too much should be kicked out of the house with a few slaps."
Xiao Er glanced at the maids out of the corner of his eye and said, "What the young lady said is that I will go check if there are any someday."
Listening to their conversation, the group of maids were so frightened that they broke out in cold sweats. Their backs straightened up even more, and they couldn't help but think that the seemingly weak young lady would not be soft-hearted when punishing others.
She put away all the little ideas the maids had in the past, and their attitudes became more respectful. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
