Before fleeing famine, marry a playboy!

Chapter 41 Drawing fire from the bottom of the cauldron

Xie Zhan stood up and sat on the stool next to Feng. He glanced at the maids and servants in the room and felt a little embarrassed. Feng waved her hand and said, "Go down, Fuqiu, bring some tea and snacks to my husband."

Fuqiu was beautiful, and Feng had originally planned to let Fuqiu become Xie Zhan's concubine after the incident with Li Yuening was over. However, she didn't expect that Zhan already had a lover.

The young man admired Ai, and Feng knew that obstructing her would alienate her son from herself, so she could only use a roundabout way to let the girl show up more in front of Zhan Ge'er, hoping that the girl would work harder on herself.

After everyone left, Xie Zhan hurriedly said, "Mother, I will not marry anyone other than Madam Shen, so you must lend a helping hand to your son."

When Feng heard this, she became furious again. Who is this vixen? She has bewitched her son to this extent before they even have a chance to conceive, and she insists on marrying him. Ugh.

But she said, "When you came in, you said you liked Madam Shen and you wanted to marry her. Mother was confused.

Are you confident enough to tell mother which Shen family this lady is from?

Who's at home?

how did you guys meet?

How long have you been in contact?

"Her name is Shen Congyin. She lives in Yecheng and her ancestral home is Jinling. She currently lives in Rongxingfang. This time she returned to her hometown with her brother to worship their ancestors. My son also happened to meet her on the street when he rescued her from being bullied. That's how we got to know each other."

"Mother, this Miss Shen is different from other ladies. Her every move and every word are not like those of a lady from a small family. She and I even get along well and have a lot of common topics.

Mother, the wife my son wants is someone like Madam Shen. I don't like those women who stay at home all day and only see the backyard. "Immersed in joy, Xie Zhan didn't notice that Feng's face darkened with every word he said.

Feng was angry but still had to keep smiling. She clenched her handkerchief and said with a smile, "My son has grown up and has a wife he likes. I am old now."

As he spoke, he wiped the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief.

Xie Zhan nodded, "Yes, mother. When I get married to Madam Shen in the future, mother will be looking forward to having grandchildren. You should stop getting angry with father all day long."

Feng's hand that was wiping her tears paused. Seeing this, Fuqiu stepped forward and pushed the cake and teacup towards Xie Zhan, saying with a smile, "My dear, drink some tea. You have so much sweat on your forehead."

After saying that, she was about to take the handkerchief to wipe it, but Xie Zhan dodged her, "Mom, I'm already this old, it's better for the maid to keep some distance from me."

Fuqiu withdrew her hand awkwardly and looked at Feng. How could they, who were serving him, not know what their husband was like?

Xie Zhan was protected too well by Feng since he was a child and only knew how to study. Some people are like this, they have talent on one side but are weak on the other side. Xie Zhan is just such a person. He is very talented in studying but lacks in dealing with people. Therefore, everything around Xie Zhan is taken care of by Feng.

Now, even when Fuqiu wanted to help him wipe the sweat off his face, he refused. This shows that the lady from the Shen family whom he had never met was a good trainer.

Feng pulled Fuqiu over, patted her hands and said, "This is Fuqiu who is beside me. She is clever and has some knowledge of writing. She is lovely. Didn't your former maid get married? I will let her serve you with writing. What do you think?"

Xie Zhan glanced at Fuqiu. The girl was shy and timid. When he looked at her, her cheeks turned pink and she called him "My dear" in a low voice.

Facing Feng's eager gaze, Xie Zhan nodded, "But mother, please ask them to behave themselves before Madam Shen comes in. I don't want to upset her."

Feng readily agreed, "Okay, okay, I'll ask the matchmaker to find out tomorrow so that you can marry the Shen family's wife as soon as possible."

Xie Zhan happily took Fuqiu away from Feng's yard.

Aunt Feng stepped forward and asked, "Madam, are you really going to let your husband marry that lady from the Shen family?"

"Humph, a wild fox who came from nowhere dared to seduce my son and make him lose his way. Go, find someone to find out where she is from in Rongxingfang."

Aunt Feng asked worriedly, "But didn't you just promise me, my dear?"

"Did I agree? I only asked the matchmaker to inquire. Aunt Feng, prepare a generous gift. I'm going to visit the principal's wife at Gusu Academy. Zhan'er has been taught by the teachers this year, and as a mother, I have to thank them properly." Feng took a bite of the dessert, and the soft and sweet fragrance melted in her mouth. Only then did Feng relax her brows.

Aunt Feng sighed: What a good move to cut off the firewood from under the cauldron, my dear, you just wish yourself good luck.

On the other side, Xie Shi sent Li Yuening back to the yard and left in a hurry.

Xie Shize went to Xie Ling's yard, told him his plan in detail, and finally asked Xie Ling to give him some help.

"Grandpa, I know this is a very risky move. Just like Yuening said, success depends on human effort. If it succeeds, the Xie family will have someone to rely on when we go to the northwest. If it doesn't work... I will never let you down." Xie Shi showed his edge for the first time, looking straight into Xie Lin's eyes without backing down.

The two looked at each other for a long time, and Xie Lin was the first to look away. "I understand the principle that wealth and honor can only be achieved through risk, but, Shi Ge'er, answer me honestly, how sure are you? If you don't have a reason to convince me, I won't let Ning Jie'er take the risk with you."

Xie Shi was not actually sure whether he could get in touch with King Han, and the trust from Li Yuening and Yun Zhuo and the others was not convincing.

Xie Shi said: "Grandpa, Yue Ning was born in the escort agency, you may not be able to look at her with the standards of ordinary ladies."

"Why?"

"Well, even my grandson's skills may not be her match, and she will not take ordinary scoundrels seriously.

Anyway, Grandpa, your granddaughter-in-law will give you a surprise in the future, just don't be scared when the time comes."

Xie Lin shook his head, "Brother Shi, these are not enough for me to support you."

The old man's cloudy eyes clearly showed that he was trying to fool me, saying that I am too young.

Xie Shi was annoyed, "Okay, Grandpa, I'm going to reveal my cards. The people going with me are the young master of Cangjian Villa, the young shopkeeper of a medicine shop, and the people from Yunwu Mountain.

Grandpa, when we get to Nanshan, you can think carefully about how to negotiate with the main family to get the biggest bargaining chip when the news comes, or, the Xie family will rewrite the genealogy from now on and write your name on the top column. "

"How outrageous." Although Xie Lin said this, there was a smile in his shrewd eyes, and he seemed very satisfied with Xie Shi's confession.

"Just do your job well, the rest is not for you to know."

Xie Shi lowered his eyes, "Yes. Then Grandpa, can you give me some help?"

"What? Four pieces of clothing are not enough for you?" Xie Lin said this to tell Xie Shi that I know your background very well and he should not play any tricks.

Xie Shi said obediently: "How can they compare with Grandpa's people? They are just ignorant kids. They still expect Grandpa's people to teach them."

Xie Lin looked at Xie Shi with deep eyes, "I will ask them to find you tomorrow. We are all family members, so I can rest assured."

"That's great, thank you grandpa." Xie Shi happily bowed to Xie Lin to express his gratitude.

Xie Lin pulled the corners of his lips, took out the marriage certificate from the drawer and handed it to Xie Shi, saying sternly, "This is the sealed marriage certificate. I'm handing Sister Ning over to you. If I find out that you've wronged her, watch out for your skin."

Xie Shi took it with both hands and said solemnly: "Grandson will remember this. Thank you, Grandpa, for your help."
