Today, Wei Yang went to Yan Feng's house for a family dinner. She brought two maids, Kong Gu You Lan, and left Xiao Cao to continue to gather information. Uh, no, she continued to look after the house.
The guarding grass soon went for a stroll in the yard with some melon seeds and peanuts in its pocket.
She first went to the maid's place at the back door, sat opposite her and ate the sunflower seeds and peanuts she had grabbed, then went to the kitchen with two frozen pears in her pocket. The kitchen manager was sitting under the eaves basking in the sun, and the two of them each held a frozen pear and ate it, while chatting about the Zhang and Li families.
On the way back, he met two little maids who had just had their hair cut. He gave each of them two pieces of candy, and they stood and talked for a while before each of them returned to their master's yard.
Xiaocao felt that she was very busy. She needed to digest the news she heard today so that she could chat with the girl before going to bed at night. The girl really liked listening to her talk.
Yan Feng's house was not far from the general's mansion. The house had three courtyards and was fully occupied.
Yan Feng had one wife, three concubines, seven sons and five daughters. He was the one with the most wives and concubines among his brothers, and also had the most children.
"The general and the young lady have arrived." The maidservant beside Madam Feng had already sent a girl to run errands and wait at the front door. She came to report as soon as she received the news.
"Come on, mother will take you to pick up your aunt." Madam Feng took her eldest daughter's hand and walked forward.
When Yan Xiaoqi heard this, he immediately grabbed the wooden pony in his hand and ran forward. He really liked this aunt.
"Aunt, look at the pony." The first thing Yan Xiaoqi did when he caught Wei Yang was to throw her into her arms and show her his pony.
This pony was the pony that pulled the carriage. He came back last night and tinkered with it carefully, and he actually disassembled it. Even Wei Yang didn't know that it could be disassembled, so she became curious and took it to look at it carefully.
"It turns out it can be disassembled. Even my aunt didn't know that."
Hearing Wei Yang say this, Yan Xiaoqi became even more proud. He looked up and looked proudly at his brothers and sisters who came out with their parents to greet his uncle and aunt.
"Weiyang greets brother and sister-in-law." Weiyang bowed to Yan Feng and Madam Feng.
Madam Feng pulled her back and said, "Sister, please don't be so polite. Come in quickly. It's cold outside. Let the children meet their aunt."
Wei Yang was pulled into the backyard by Madam Feng, and Yan Gui followed Yan Feng to the front hall.
The flower hall in the backyard is not big, and the things in it are not very exquisite, but it is solid and heavy. You can tell at first glance that it belongs to a family who lives a careful life and does not care about details.
Yan Feng's eldest daughter is called Yan Xiaoxia. After Wei Yang sat down, she hurried over to greet her.
Yan Xiaoxia had a loose bun, willow-shaped eyebrows, an oval face, and a pair of bright eyes, with the beauty of a young woman. She was 70% similar to Feng Dasaozi, and people felt that she was cheerful and amiable at first glance.
When the four unmarried girls of the Yan family came to pay their respects to Wei Yang, even though she had heard that Yan Feng had seven sons and five daughters, Wei Yang was still a little surprised when she saw the row of smiling girls in front of her.
The five daughters of Yan Feng's family were born too close together and are almost the same age. If you count carefully, all five daughters are older than Wei Yang.
Thanks to Xiaocao, the gossip girl, she was well-informed. When they were chatting with Weiyang in the evening, she told Weiyang in detail about the situation of Yan Feng's family. Among the five daughters, only the eldest daughter, Yan Xiaoxia, was born to Madam Feng, and the other four were born to two concubines.
Among the seven sons of the Yan Feng family, only Yan Xiaosan and Yan Xiaoliu were born to the two concubines, and the other five were born to Madam Feng.
After receiving Wei Yang's gift, the four concubines all retreated to the side and sat quietly. Yan Xiaoqi came over again and pulled Wei Yang's sleeve: "Aunt, where is my gift?"
