124 This Is Too Embarrassing

If it was not for Zhao Ruifeng’s bad luck, the emperor would probably be afraid of him. Now that his wife was a village woman who was of no help to him, the emperor was relieved, but at least he had to keep his face.

It was already noon when Jiang Xi and the others arrived at the Zhao family’s gate.

“Young Miss Yingying is back. It just so happens that Young Miss Panpan has brought back the bird’s nest that the empress has bestowed upon her. We can have a bowl of it.” The maidservants who served Zhao Yingying quickly came forward to help her. These two maidservants were only arranged for Zhao Yingying by Xiao Meili after Zhao Ruifeng returned. When Zhao Yingying went to Xingfu Town with Zhao Ruifeng, she did not bring these two maidservants with her, but left them at the Zhao family.

With a faint smile on her face, Zhao Yingying turned around and held Jiang Xi’s hand, trying to boost Jiang Xi’s morale.

!!

“Young Miss Yingying’s body looks much better than before. Although she can’t compare to Young Miss Panpan in this year’s selection, I think she’ll have a good marriage.” The maidservant quickly sized up Jiang Xi and the others, and a mocking glint flashed in her eyes. It had been many years since such poor people had come to the Zhao family.

Two servant girls welcomed Jiang Xi and the others into the house. Song Yun followed behind with gifts in her arms. Wu Tielong and the others followed at the back. The group of people did not change their expressions, as if they were not dazzled by the wealth of the Zhao family. Song Yun had lived in many good places in her past life. As for Jiang Shan, he was not particular about food, clothing, accommodation, and transportation. He only liked to eat some meat.

“My grandparents have always lived in the Northwest, and they were the ones who raised my big brother since he was young. This year, my grandmother suddenly returned to Jing City when she suddenly wanted to give birth. My father recently married a few more concubines, but I don’t know how many he married or how many daughters they have. I only know that Xiao Meili now has Zhao Panpan, the eldest daughter, and a younger daughter around ten years old. She gave birth to another a few months ago. There are a total of twenty-eight girls in the residence, right?” Zhao Yingying paused. These words made her face burn. It was too embarrassing! Even a sow would not be this fertile!

On the way, Zhao Yingying introduced Jiang Xi to the members of the Zhao family and talked to them as they walked. Finally, Jiang Xi and the others arrived at the main hall.

The head of the Zhao family, Zhao Hongwei, loved to write, recite poetry, and admire talented women. As time went by, he had plenty of female confidants and concubines, and he could not stop. However, there were too many women in the manor, so it was a bit dusty. There were too many women and only one man, so naturally, they wanted to fight for favor. Moreover, the more women there were, the more Yin Qi there would be.

When Jiang Xi and her group entered the main hall, they were stunned by the scene in front of them.

The Zhao family’s Old Master, who was sitting at the head of the table, felt uneasy when he met Jiang Xi’s eyes. It was as if there were nails under his butt. If he had known about this earlier, he would have gone to play chess with his old friend instead of watching his only living granddaughter-in-law here. It was such an awkward scene.

He saw that the wide main hall was full of people, and at a glance, they were all women! The spacious main hall was packed with people except for the Old Master of the Zhao family, who was sitting in the middle. There were women all around him!

Old Master Zhao’s face was dark as he sighed in his heart. Ever since the first wife of his son, Zhao Hongwei, had passed away, the Zhao family had never given birth to another son. Not a single son. Even the cats and dogs raised in the house had female children.

“Yingying greets grandfather, grandmother, and mother.” Zhao Yingying pulled Jiang Xi along and bowed deeply.

As soon as Jiang Xi entered the house, everyone looked at her and thought that she was dressed in a rustic style. However, when they met Jiang Xi’s dark eyes, they were stunned for a moment. Soon, they looked disdainful. She was just a country bumpkin who knew nothing. When she married into the Zhao family, she would be at the mercy of others. Tsk, tsk, how pitiful. Xiao Meili was able to anger Zhao Hongwei’s first wife to death, and Zhao Ruifeng’s wife would probably follow in her footsteps.

The Zhao family’s Old Master was getting older, and he was relieved to see Jiang Xi. Zhao Ruifeng had been engaged so many times, and so many future wives had died. He was content as long as Zhao Ruifeng had a living wife! As long as the Zhao family’s granddaughter-in-law could live, breathe, and marry into the family, anything else was fine!

As soon as the Zhao family’s Old Master left, Xiao Meili, who was blowing on her teacup, put it down.
