The little Marquis’ favorite: Madam, she is the richest in the world

Chapter 88 There is no way to compare with the Meng family

On April 9th, people from both Xie and Meng families gathered at Xie Mansion.

After the hair-raising ceremony, a sumptuous banquet was served in Tingyu Pavilion. Guests came and went, drinking wine, talking and laughing, and it was very lively.

The elders' topics always revolve around their children. After two glasses of wine, someone started asking.

"Brother Xie, Lan Yi and hairpin mean that she is of marriageable age. Do you have a son-in-law you are optimistic about?"

Mr. Xie smiled proudly and said, "Don't worry, don't worry, my Lan Yi is both talented and beautiful, but I'm afraid I won't be able to find my husband's family."

"Having said that, it's better to have a good look early. There are only so many young talents. If you start late, they will all be booked by other companies." A lady dressed in luxurious clothes said jokingly.

Another woman next to her said hurriedly: "Brother Xie, you really don't have to worry. Don't you have an excellent son-in-law riding a dragon right in front of you?"

Mr. Xie didn't react, "Who is it?"

A middle-aged man next to me said: "Brother, why are you pretending to be confused?"

Mr. Xie felt wronged because he really didn’t know who they were referring to.

Luo Chen? Or Meng Hong?

Seeing Mr. Xie's confused look, the woman couldn't help but point to Luo Chen, who was standing next to Xie Lanyi not far away, "Isn't this?"

Luo Chen~

Mr. Xie's expression softened a lot in an instant, and he couldn't help but nod and praise: "Luo Chen is indeed a good kid. He is calm and restrained, responsible for his work, and he is someone who can be trusted."

Boss Zhou from the grain store said frankly: "Although Luo Chen is good, and although the Luo family is also a big family, they are not inferior to the Meng family by a little or two."

"Brother Xie has good relations with the Meng family, so why not seize the opportunity and get closer to him?"

Although speaking of scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, most gentry and scholars looked down upon merchants;

But in the eyes of businessmen all over the world, the Meng family is unattainable.

Not to mention the Luo family, even the whole family couldn't compare with the Meng family.

Everyone has this self-knowledge.

That is a family fortune accumulated over hundreds of years by several generations, and it is not something they can catch up with in three or two years.

This can be seen from the fact that business spread all over the country, and caravans traveled all over the Western Regions and outside the Great Wall.

Mr. Xie snorted coldly: "I'm afraid I can't reach the top of the Meng family."

"What? What happened?"

"Is it because Mr. Meng doesn't want to?"

It was a shameful thing to say, but Mr. Xie didn't want to mention it more, so he just prevaricates it.

In fact, Meng Yuan and Lin both liked their Lan Yi, but it was Meng Hong who was that brat.

He has always been cold and cold, as if he has never taken his family's wishes seriously.

Mr. Xie is also arrogant. Although the Xie family is not as good as the Meng family in all aspects, he is never willing to shamelessly force his daughter into the Meng family.

Besides,

His daughter lacks nothing but a husband who knows both coldness and warmth.

And that young master of the Meng family is good at everything, but he is too cold-tempered and taciturn.

No matter how you look at him, he doesn't look like a loving husband.

If his daughter likes her and is absolutely determined not to marry Meng Hong, then it is not impossible to compromise for her daughter;

But according to his observations during this period,

Ever since her youngest daughter Lan Xin's condition improved, Lan Yi suddenly seemed like a different person.

In the past, I only had Meng Hong in my heart, and I was determined not to let him go;

And now...

Mr. Xie felt that his eldest daughter had become calmer and calmer after this incident, and it seemed that Meng Hong was no longer the only one in his eyes.

-

The elders were chatting and laughing, while Xie Lanyi and several close friends of the same age were sitting alone at a table, and they also had their own interesting topics.

The servants of the Xie family very thoughtfully arranged the banquet at the young master's table away from the noisy guests. There was a bead curtain in the middle so that they could talk freely.

As today's birthday girl, Xie Lanyi is sitting in the main seat. To the left are Xie Lanxin, Meng Xian, Meng Qi, Meng Wan, Meng Hong and Luo Chen. There are also two Xie Lanyi's usual handkerchiefs, the youngest daughter of the Zhou family. Zhou Huimin and Du Mingfei from the Du family.

Xie Lanxin, who had regained her health, seemed to be a talkative person. She never stopped talking with her small mouth, as if she wanted to make up for all the things she had no energy to talk about when she was sick.

Finally, Xie Lanyi couldn't bear it anymore, picked up a piece of bamboo fungus and duck and stuffed it into Xie Lanxin's mouth, "You should take a rest, I'm really afraid that you will be tired."

Meng Wan joked: "Now we can all rest assured, Lan Xin is not recovering well."

Meng Xian stretched a little and said, "That's good, so I can return to the capital with peace of mind."

Luo Chen was surprised when he heard this, "You still want to go to the capital?"

"I thought you three sisters wouldn't be leaving when I come back this time."

The corners of Meng Qi's lips curled up, and her clear watery eyes were filled with a narrow smile, "Eldest sister and I can go back, but we, the third girl, have to go back."

Luo Chen understood and thought of the rumor Zheng Xuze brought back.

"Except for Lan Xin, Xianxian is the youngest among us. Unexpectedly, she is the fastest."

The profound meaning of these words is self-evident and everyone understands it.

They were all acquaintances, and Meng Xian didn't mean to be shy at all, "I'll give it in."

Meng Qi was angry and asked her, "Are you ashamed?"

Meng Lian: "If I'm embarrassed, I'm sure you guys will make fun of me even more enthusiastically."

Zhou Huimin's eyes widened and she looked in Meng Xian's direction curiously, "I'm really curious about what kind of person can hold you."

Meng Xian frowned, "Why don't your words sound like good words?"

Luo Chen also smiled and agreed, "Actually, I'm also quite curious about who can catch your eye."

Meng Xian smiled and said, "I'll let you know when I get the chance."

Luo Chen: "It is rumored that the Prince of Wu'an is handsome and majestic. He has numerous achievements and meritorious deeds at a young age. Such a young hero is naturally the dream of countless women in the boudoir."

Meng Xian waved her hand, "Come on, I'm tired of hearing these words. From the capital to Jiangnan, you guys praise me without even changing your words."

Meng Hong didn't speak during the whole process, and it wasn't until the banquet was about to end that he glanced at Meng Wan and Meng Qi lightly, "You two want to go back too?"

Meng Qi spread her hands helplessly, "I don't have a business or shop in the capital, and I don't have anyone I care about. It doesn't matter whether I come back or not."

Meng Hong hummed, and then his eyes moved slightly to Meng Wan.

Meng Wan was slightly embarrassed, "Brother, didn't you never pay attention to our whereabouts before?"

Under the Eight Immortals table, Meng Hong was slightly startled when he turned the jade ring on his hand, but his dark eyes were still so deep that it was unpredictable, "What? You also have something on your mind that you can't tell big brother?"

"I……"

Meng Hong: "Mo Cao sent me another letter not long ago, saying that the Meng Mo family has never had any contact with each other. Do you know why it is like this now?"

Meng Wan curled her lips, "So what if you know? Forgive me for the cold face I had for so long. If he just pretends, I have to be the same as before."

Of course Meng Hong didn't mean this. He had always protected his shortcomings and always pampered his three younger sisters. How could he be willing to let his younger sister be wronged by others?

"Although it was indeed Mo Gao's fault for being cold to you in the first place; but why didn't you look at what you said when you first met her?"

"I don't know where you learned those bandit-like ways."

Meng Qi and Meng Xian knew the inside story, and their bright eyes couldn't help but curl slightly when they heard this.

Meng Wan's cheeks were slightly hot, "Brother~"

Meng Hong frowned and said helplessly: "I can tell, you two will probably live in the capital forever in the future."

Meng Qi corrected her seriously: "Not necessarily. If brother Mo Gao returns to Yangzhou, the eldest sister might also change places."

Meng Wan suddenly stared straight-eyed, looking at Meng Qi in disbelief, whose face remained calm and her heart was not beating, intending to condemn something with her eyes.

Meng Hong is as big as one head and two big ones.

Each of the three sisters is more courageous than the other. It seems that there is nothing in the world that they can't think of, and there is nothing they can't do;

In addition, his unreliable father handed over the responsibility of the family to him early.

As a result, he not only has to manage the family's properties all over the world, but also prevents people with ulterior motives from all walks of life from targeting the three beautiful sisters in the family.

tired!

Meng Hong felt that the emperor in the capital was probably not as tired as he was.
