The Zhang family is thin and thin, so those who have some connections in the village are helping out, and the whole village is lively because of the engagement.

Cheng Huan accompanied Xu Ruyun, helping to take care of the seven aunts and eight aunts who stayed behind, and had to serve good wine and food at noon.

The Zhang family accepted the letter of appointment, and the marriage was settled, but because Fu Rong was still young, she was not in a hurry to accept the etiquette.

In the afternoon, after the banquet, the men came back from the Zhang family.The men in the main room were sitting casually, talking about the engagement just now, and the rich gifts prepared by the Cheng family made everyone envious.

After Cheng Jia helped Xu Ruyun pour tea for everyone, she also got into the room where Cheng Huan and the others were sitting.

In the room, Zixia, Cheng Cheng, Cheng Bing, Cheng Huan, Xu Shanshan, Xu Lili, and several maids were sitting casually. When Cheng Jia entered, Xu Lili was proudly talking about how happy she was in her husband's house.

Xu Shanshan's face was a little ugly after hearing these words, and her buttocks moved away as if she had thorns, but the others felt bored, and there was no one who answered the conversation, just listening to Xu Lili talking about herself What kind of boring words.

"It's not going to be winter soon. My husband is afraid that I will be cold, so I specially asked someone to bring me a cotton robe with a fur collar from Su Town. This material is..."

Cheng Jia came in with a smile and put the tea tray on the small table on the kang, Zixia immediately came over to help, and arranged the teacups one by one, Cheng Cheng directly interrupted Xu Lili's boring remarks, "Sister Li, you Let's drink some tea!"

Only then did Xu Lili calm down, took the teacup in Cheng Cheng's hand, and drank scented tea happily, Cheng Bing snorted unhappily and said: "If you want to say that the one with the best fate is my little sister, what kind of woolen collar is it? I don’t even know how many robes there are!”

　 As soon as Xu Lili heard this, she moved the teacup by her mouth away, squinted at Cheng Bing, and seeing that she was quite pretty, she snorted and said, "That's true, Huaner, we dare not In comparison, there is Furong Baobuqi who is the wife of the number one scholar, no matter how poor she is, she will not be poor if she guards the Cheng family, what is even more enviable is that she is only 13 years old, and she is engaged!"

Xu Lili's words meant something, and immediately everyone in the room changed their expressions. Cheng Bing and Cheng Huan are both the same age, and Fu Rong is one year younger than Cheng Bing, but both of them are married. , but she is still not cared about, if it is said that Jiji had few engagements before, but she is the only one in the family, even if it is normal, it makes people feel abnormal.

Immediately, Cheng Bing's face turned cold, showing signs of getting angry, and Xu Shanshan's face also turned bad. She couldn't restrain the sadness in her heart, so she stood up abruptly and put the teacup on the small table. With a blushing face, she hurriedly said, "Sit down, I'll go see if Auntie can help you!"

After saying that, he walked out, but Cheng Bing's mood improved because of Xu Shanshan's actions, and he snorted coldly, "Hey, your Xu family should also be anxious!"
