Rich Peasant Girl: The General's Wife Has Space
Chapter 377 A big banquet
The villagers who came to congratulate, as well as some wealthy families in Yuntai Town and Jiyun City, all came. Those who could not come also sent their own managers as representatives to deliver gifts.
County Magistrate Zhao Wenqing also ordered people to send congratulatory gifts. After all, a juren emerged under his jurisdiction, which was a great honor and also a very friendly evaluation of his own.
The Zhao family treated everyone equally and did not get upset just because the villagers' gifts were of low value. The wife of a successful candidate, Yao, even greeted the villagers with a smile, completely different from her previous contempt for others.
The villagers were also very surprised, but they just smiled kindly.
At this time, Old Man Xiao and Mrs. Liu brought Xiao Wan, Xiao Zhengping and Xiao Yuer over. Xiao Zhener did not come with them because Qilixiang could not leave.
When the people from Yuntai Town and Jiyun City saw the legendary county lord, who was also the "master" of Jiyun City, they hurriedly stood up and saluted.
Although she was a peasant girl and a county lady, she was personally conferred the title by the emperor. The entire Jiyun City was her fiefdom, and the county lady's mansion was even built by craftsmen sent by the court.
This shows that the emperor still values this county lady very much. If he can make friends with her, he should do it as soon as possible. Some of his own potato products are also supplied by the Xiao family workshop. Who knows what achievements this county lady can make in the future.
Take the Banchengxian dish for example. It has become popular in Yuntai Town recently. Few people don’t like it. Many gourmets from Jiyun City come to Yuntai Town to eat it after hearing about its reputation.
Xiao Wan quickly waved her hand to tell everyone to excuse themselves and not to be restrained. Everyone who came had brought their wives and children with them, and when they saw Xiao Wan, they all surrounded her, and for a moment it seemed as if the host and guest were reversed.
Zhao Xuancheng came out to entertain the guests and saw Xiao Wan surrounded by many people. He stopped there in a daze.
He was not angry that she stole his limelight. Instead, he had a deep understanding that Xiao Wan at this moment was indeed not the Xiao Wan he knew before.
He didn't understand, and couldn't put his finger on the reason, it was just a strong intuition.
The Yao and Sun families, as well as the people of Kaoshan Village, stared at the situation in front of them in amazement. Only then did they deeply realize that the Xiao family and the daughters of the Xiao family were no longer the same as before.
People from the city would greet Xiao Wan when they saw her, but she, relying on the fact that they were from the same village, never showed any respect to her.
Such a person was actually blinded by greed in the past, so he thought that the county lady was marrying above his station.
Yao suddenly felt relieved. She was wrong, so she should correct it. Her father-in-law was right. People of such status could not be found even if they begged for favors from other villages. Why was she being so pretentious?
After figuring it out, Yao relaxed completely and looked at everyone with a warm smile on her face again. She didn't feel that the Xiao family was taking over the show.
But the Xiao family is the Xiao family. After greeting everyone, Xiao Wan said, "We will be in Jiyun City together in the future. There will be many opportunities to meet. Today we are here to congratulate our Jiyun City for producing a young scholar. Let's get together again later."
When everyone came to their senses, they all smiled a little embarrassedly, turned around and quickly congratulated the young scholar and his family.
It has been so many years since Jiyun City produced such a young scholar, so we must make friends with him.
Zhao Xuancheng saw everyone rushing towards him, while Xiao Wan was looking at the scene with a smile on her face. He didn't know what he felt.
You see, I became a juren, which means I have taken another step forward. My mother also told me today that she will no longer interfere with my decision. She can try to propose marriage to the Xiao family again, and her attitude will be good.
But he felt as if he was getting further and further away from Xiao Wan.
Zhao Xuancheng felt mixed emotions and didn't know what expression to make. Before he could even say hello to Xiao Wan, he was surrounded by a crowd of people who came to congratulate him.
He had to put his thoughts aside for the time being, and after taking a last look at Xiao Wan, he turned around and greeted everyone.
Today is a big event in his family, and I can't be selfish and only care about my own private affairs.
Seeing that Zhao Xuancheng did not come to find her, but greeted everyone first, Xiao Wan sighed and relaxed.
I hope he can figure it out. I am no longer that Xiao Wan. I don’t have the same feelings as before with Zhao Xuancheng, so it is impossible for me to have feelings for him.
She is not a love-brained person, but she wants to be loyal to someone she loves.
The look in his eyes when he looked at her was too affectionate, and contained some indescribable complex emotions.
Perhaps he should be able to feel that he is no longer the original Xiao Wan, but fortunately he is still very rational.
Today, Yao was out of character and was very warm and friendly when she saw her family.
There was no longer the arrogance in his eyes, as if he had suddenly become a different person.
Although the Xiao family would not take Yao's attitude to heart, Zhao Lizheng was a good man. For Zhao Lizheng, they no longer cared about Yao's past attitude.
