The fool has become a spirit, and she can speak

Cheng Feng said, "That's your son's business. If you want to make trouble for these people, it's Cheng Youning, not us."

Shang Xi said: "You are so ruthless, and you are the same kind of person as your uncle. You pushed Cheng Youning out without mercy. What did my five-year-old son do wrong to marry so many people?"

Cheng Feng said: "That's how it is for a marriage alliance. Someone has to sacrifice himself, and there is no other suitable candidate except our son."

Shang Xi said: "You really know how to be considerate of your uncle. You don't have to say sarcastic words when your son makes trouble with you in the future."

Cheng Feng said: "This is for my uncle and the Wan family. My son will understand when he grows up. To be honest, how do Hong Jiutong and Chen Zi'e compare to this person?"

When Shang Xi saw that Cheng Feng was really serious about choosing a daughter-in-law for her, she also became more serious. "Needless to say, Chen Zi'e is the most pleasing girl. She looks so pretty when she smiles. Her chubby face shows that she is blessed with good fortune. She is lovable."

Cheng Feng said, "I'm also optimistic about Chen Zi'e's child. This one is also okay. If you look closely, Hong Jiutong is not bad."

Shang Xi said: "Ordinary people."

Cheng Feng leaned his head towards Shang Xi, "You can tell that this woman is a vulgar person? How come I couldn't see that?"

Shang Xi rolled her eyes at Cheng Feng in her heart, "You think I have sharp eyes and golden pupils, but I said you are a vulgar person."

Cheng Feng couldn't help laughing out loud, and Shang Xi laughed along.

Wan Lianxing looked up at Cheng Feng and Shang Xi. They were less serious than him in such an important situation. "What are you two laughing at?"

Shang Xi quickly said, "Nothing?"

Wan Lianxing said: "Nothing can make you two laugh like this, tell me and make my uncle laugh too."

Cheng Feng said: "Uncle, it's like this, Shang Xi just told me that she is satisfied with the daughters-in-law that uncle found for Cheng Youning."

"Oh, hahahaha, as long as you are satisfied, that's good."

At this time, Hong Jiutong was stunned on the spot. Her maid secretly tugged at her sleeve and said in a very low voice: "Miss, why am I a little confused? Who is this blind date? Isn't it the Marquis and the young master of the Wan family?"

Who wouldn't be confused? Hong Jiutong was secretly happy in her heart the last second. She actually liked Cheng Feng. She was satisfied with his status, appearance, family background, and his ordinary wife. Why were things so different from what she thought now?

She looked at her parents, who gave her a look that urged her to stay calm. The guqin had been brought in by the servants, and someone guided her to play it quickly. She had no choice but to calm herself and sit on the guqin stool.

A soft sound slowly rang out from Hong Jiutong's fingertips. Shang Xi couldn't tell what the tune was, but she felt like a stream was flowing slowly in her heart, eliminating her boredom and nourishing her mind. Yes, this child's piano playing was quite good and he must have put a lot of effort in it.

The most talented person in the Hong family is Hong Jiutong. She has always made Hong Zhekai proud. After the song was over, Hong Zhekai said modestly to Wan Lianxing: "My Lord, I am sorry for my poor performance. I am not very good at music."

Wan Lianxing had seen the world, and he had heard the sounds of various musical instruments. He knew that Hong Jiutong was not as good as the musicians in the palace, but he did not say so. He smiled and said to Hong Zhekai, "She played well, but she is still a little inferior to her future mother-in-law Shang Xi's piano skills."

When Hong Zhekai heard this, he considered it a compliment. It was an honor for his family to compare his daughter with Shang Xi. It would be fine if the other people in the family didn't know Shang Xi, but he knew who Shang Xi was. Not only was she very capable, but she was also valued by Wan Lianxing. She was a person that no man could compare to. He said happily, "How dare my daughter compare with Madam Cheng? Madam Cheng is obviously a woman of great talent and skills. My daughter will humbly ask for advice and serve her from now on."

Shang Xi almost spit out the tea she had. She seemed to have never played the guqin in front of Wan Lianxing. How did Wan Lianxing know that she could play the guqin at all? Her level was not enough to show off. Apart from being able to play a few songs that no one here could play, she had nothing new and her guqin skills were just so-so. She had not put as much effort into playing the guqin as her good friend Furong, and now seeing that she was no match for Hong Jiutong. She didn't know why Wan Lianxing said such a thing.

Ge Dongqing on the side asked: "Shang Xi can also play the piano?"

Shang Xi said modestly: "I haven't played the piano for a long time, and I'm already rusty at it. My uncle is making fun of me."

Hong Jiutong, as if struck by lightning, now completely understood who she was going to marry. It was the son of this woman and this man. These two were only in their early twenties. How big could the son be? This was such a big joke on him. She was helped up from the piano stool by her maid, and she forced herself to salute the person sitting there.

Ge Dongqing spoke at the right time, "My Lord, if the two families have no objection, I think we should just settle this good thing."

Just as Wan Lianxing was about to nod, Shang Xi spoke up, "Is there something missing?"

"What's missing?"

Shang Xi said, "Shouldn't we combine the two children's horoscopes?" She saw that Huang Chenming did not come with them today, and wondered if there would be room for maneuver if the matter was delayed a little longer.

Ge Dongqing laughed, "My Lord has thought of everything you have thought of. The horoscopes of these two children have been matched in advance. If the horoscopes of these two children were not particularly compatible, we would not have to make this trip today."

Shang Xi didn't think that this man's words were trustworthy, but Wan Lianxing had made up his mind. At this juncture, she couldn't stop the two families from getting married.

So the two families exchanged tokens of love, and then stayed together for dinner and the deal was settled.

Hong Zhe opened his mouth and said, "My Lord, should my daughter marry into the Wan family in advance, or should she wait until the young master of the Wan family comes of age?"

Wan Lianxing smiled and said, "This matter is not urgent, we will discuss it later. Allow the person to stay in the prefectural governor's mansion. I will go back in a few days and send someone to bring him back."

Hong Zhekai and his wife immediately knelt on the ground and said, "Thank you for your kindness, my Lord. I, Hong Zhekai, am willing to serve you at my utmost."

Wan Lianxing said, "You two should get up. I, Wan Lianxing, have not asked you to open a place for Hongzhe. My only wish is for you to build the water conservancy project in the entire Fengying."

Hong Zhekai said: "Since this is a long-term plan that benefits the people, I, Hong Zhekai, should respond to the Marquis's request and contribute. I promise that within one year, there will be no more water shortage in Mochun County, and within five years, there will be no major drought or flood in the entire Fengying."

Wan Lianxing said, "Okay, I will remember what you said today. I will leave the water conservancy of Fengying to you, Hong Zhe."
