On the first day of the new year, Wang Tuiguan and his family said goodbye. Although Wang Yingxiang was reluctant in every possible way, she really couldn't find any reason to continue living in Xiao Mansion.
She looked angrily at Zhang Yunqing, who was gloating about his misfortune, and muttered angrily: "Why can she continue to live there?"
Only the wife of the Wang family who was closest heard her muttering and couldn't help but sigh.
"Xiang'er, Miss Zhang's father is Mr. Xiao's partner, and they are sworn brothers. With this relationship, Miss Zhang is just visiting relatives, and no one can say anything.
But our family and Mr. Xiao's family are just neighbors, and we will make others laugh if we live there for a long time. "
"How could he be just a neighbor? I have a contract. Mr. Xiao bought me."
The wife of the Wang family couldn't bear to listen to her daughter's remarks, so she pinched her hard, causing Wang Yingxiang to burst into tears.
Xiao Feng sent the three of them to the gate and took out the red envelope he had prepared.
"It's Chinese New Year, let's think of this as lucky money for Miss Wang."
Wang Yingxiang blushed and wanted to say that she had grown up and was the same generation as Xiao Feng, so he shouldn't give him lucky money.
Wang Tuiguan coughed: "Xiang'er, Mr. Xiao's kindness, please take it."
Wang Yingxiang took the red envelope and opened it. There was one tael of silver and a piece of paper inside. He took out the paper and unfolded it, and it turned out to be the deed of betrayal.
The deed of sale of the wife of the Wang family and Wang Yingxiang is in duplicate. They have one copy in their hands and Xiao Feng has one copy.
This is the rule of the deed of sale. In fact, it doesn’t matter whether the seller has the share, because the buyer’s share is what is necessary to claim rights.
As long as the contract of sale is in Xiao Feng's hands, even if Lao Wang becomes prosperous in the future and becomes the chief minister of the dynasty, the Wang family's wife and Wang Yingxiang can only be slaves of the Xiao family.
This is the rule of this era. It may seem absurd, but it is recognized by everyone and must not be broken.
Lao Wang had already expected that Xiao Feng would not hold on to the contract of sale, but he was still very excited when he saw Xiao Feng returning it to him so easily.
"Your Majesty's kindness and kindness will never be forgotten by the Wang family. If there is anything I can do for you, Wang Shun will go through fire and water, even to the death."
Mrs. Wang's wife also wiped her tears excitedly, and a stone finally fell to the ground in her heart.
To be honest, in the past few days, although Xiao Feng had been comforting them not to be afraid, she was still a little uneasy.
If her husband cannot come out, she and her daughter will have nowhere to go, and they will have no choice but to be slaves in the Xiao Mansion for the rest of their lives.
Wang Yingxiang clutched the piece of paper tightly and suddenly looked up at Xiao Feng. Her big eyes were filled with tears just like her mother's, but the nature seemed to be a little different.
"Master Xiao, do you not want me anymore?"
As soon as he said this, everyone was shocked. Zhang Yunqing, who came to see him off, opened his mouth wide, as if someone had strangled his neck. He looked nervously at Wang Yingxiang and then at Xiao Feng.
Qiao Niang suddenly raised her head and looked at Wang's wife, wanting to see how she would face this situation.
Qiaoqiao has been selling cloth on the street since she was very young. She is very clever, but she is very slow about matters between men and women. She looks at Wang Yingxiang stupidly and comforts her.
"Sister Yingxiang, how could this happen? I will never abandon you. When did you miss us? You can come and play with us at any time!"
Wang Tuiguan thought of ten million ways to express his position in an instant, and finally felt that there was only one that was most suitable, which was to pretend to be confused and pretend not to hear.
As long as I am not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed, so Wang Tuiguan remained unmoved as he bid farewell to Xiao Feng.
The wife of the Wang family did not have such good acting skills. Her face turned red and she quickly pulled her daughter to her side and smiled awkwardly at Xiao Feng.
"Master Xiao, Yingxiang, Qiaoqiao, and Miss Zhang get along very well. When they are separated, they will inevitably feel melancholy and excited, and they will speak indiscriminately and messily. Don't be surprised."
Xiao Feng is not a fool, he just doesn't think about it. Seeing Wang Yingxiang like this, how could he not know what was going on? ,
However, he chose a similar plan to Lao Wang. Lao Wang pretended not to hear, and he pretended not to understand and just followed Qiaoqiao's words.
"Yeah, how can you say we don't want you anymore? You just go home with your parents. You can come and live whenever you want.
Your room is reserved for you and no one should touch it. "
There are many houses in the Xiao Mansion, and each guest is assigned a room. However, although the three of them have a room each, they always sleep together and take turns causing trouble in those three rooms.
Wang Yingxiang blinked, feeling that Xiao Feng seemed to have agreed to something, but he didn't seem to have agreed to anything. Madam Wang breathed a sigh of relief and took the opportunity to drop this embarrassing topic.
Lao Wang's family left in a hired carriage, and the next to leave were Liu Ruyun and his father, who had made a splash last night.
That's right, when people mentioned Liu Ruyun before, they might have said: This is Chen Zhonghou's daughter.
It is estimated that in a few days, when people mention Chen Zhonghou, they will say: That is Liu Ruyun's father.
The fifteen dishes that Liu Ruyun had tried many times, with the blessing of MSG, actually allowed her to learn new skills and reach a level similar to her mother's.
And the five dishes she was already good at, with the addition of MSG, made new breakthroughs and reached the pinnacle.
Last night was just a small test, the real battle will take place at the God of Cookery Conference. So Xiao Feng told everyone last night not to reveal Liu Ruyun's great improvement in cooking skills before the God of Cookery Competition.
Although Zhang Tianci made his mouth water after eating last night, he expressed his opinion that even if he didn't keep it secret, Miss Liu could definitely defeat Shi Zhenxiang with her current cooking skills. But Xiao Feng shut him up with just one sentence.
"Being prepared but not distracted is always the guarantee of victory. If the outcome is not decided, an arrogant soldier will be defeated. Even if a lion fights a rabbit, he must use his full strength."
Qi Jiguang muttered this several times, then suddenly slapped the table, startling everyone.
"Zhan Yu, Wu Xin, yesterday we discussed how to win in battle against the enemy. I said there is no guaranteed victory, but with proper tactics, the winning rate will be high.
Brother Xiao's words today are from a strategic perspective and are of great use to our march and war.
First we must show weakness and make our enemies proud. Secondly, we must ensure that our military strength is superior to that of our opponents, and we must act like a lion, not a rabbit!
Even if the victory is not decided, an arrogant soldier will be defeated. A lion will fight a rabbit with all his strength. Wonderful sentence, wonderful sentence, I want to write it on the first page of my military book! "
Xiao Feng remembered that Qi Jiguang wrote several military books in history, and he didn't know which one he was writing now. He never thought that his casual sentence could still be on the front page of his military books.
This feels like Xiao Feng copying famous quotes on the cover of his book when he was a child. The format should be similar to the following.
Even if the victory is not decided, the arrogant soldiers will be defeated. The lion fights the rabbit with all his strength - (Ming) Xiao Feng.
The conscience of heaven and earth, not a single sentence in this is original to him.
If it wasn't nondescript, Xiao Feng would have liked Qi Jiguang to write his poem about complaining in the middle of the night on the front page, at least it would be his original work.
Chen Zhonghou was waiting for his daughter at the door with his ancestral kitchen knife. Liu Ruyun walked up to Xiao Feng and blessed her.
"Mr. Xiao, the elixir you refined has inspired me to master the essence of my mother's recipes. I cannot thank you enough for this great kindness, and I will repay it later."
Xiao Feng smiled and took out a red envelope and handed it to her.
"This is the lucky money for you."
Liu Ruyun's face turned red. Xiao Feng had just given Wang Yingxiang new year's money, which seemed a bit nondescript. He was only five years older than Wang Yingxiang.
However, Xiao Feng and Wang Tuiguan were friends of the same generation, so it was reasonable to give Wang Yingxiang new year's money.
But he was eight years older than Xiao Feng, so it was logical that Liu Ruyun should give him a red envelope, but he gave it to himself instead.
Seeing that Xiao Feng had handed it over, Liu Ruyun had no choice but to accept it. He took it and opened it. There was also a tael of silver in the red envelope, as well as a small porcelain vase.
Liu Ruyun felt like she had found a treasure and quickly stuffed the small porcelain bottle into her arms.
"You have been studying the dishes during this period, and they are probably almost used up. I am more proficient in this bottle, and the purity is better than the last one. You can save it for the Master of Cooking competition."
Liu Ruyun nodded repeatedly and said shyly: "Actually, I should prepare a red envelope for you. After all, I am older than you."
That picture flashed through Xiao Feng's mind and he couldn't help but laugh. A beautiful girl sends herself a red envelope.
If there was a dubbing for this scene, it would definitely be in a Hong Kong and Taiwanese accent: "Hey, I can't tell, you're still a virgin, take it, this is the rule."
Liu Ruyun didn't know why Xiao Feng was smiling, but she just thought his smile was so warm, so kind, so... well, a little handsome.
She couldn't help but smile infectiously, turned to leave, then stopped, and whispered to Xiao Feng a secret she had discovered.
"Mr. Xiao, you may not have noticed that Miss Wang may like you!"
