Chapter 334: Chapter 335 Mrs. Song’s Dinner Party (Fifth Update)_1

Nan Feng graciously made obeisance to Magistrate Song and his wife, and then presented a jar of top grade "Daughter’s Red" wine. "Today is Madam Song’s birthday, please accept this small offering with a joyful heart."

Magistrate Song and Lady Song found it hard to believe that Nan Feng, young and beautiful as she was, could possess such a sense of grace. Lady Song couldn’t help but praise Nan Feng, "Good, good girl. It’s truly a blessing that Guardian Xia has a clever and wise woman like you at his side. He must have been doing good deeds in his past lives."

Nan Feng also made a small joke, "Madam is right. It is indeed the result of his good deeds in past lives."

Ye Ge gave Nan Feng an indulgent smile.

Ye Ge then introduced Nan Feng to the officials who were present, including Song Xiaoyue.

Song Xiaoyue was a bit stunned and, of course, heartbroken. But being the daughter of the house and having experienced various situations, she quickly regained her composure and politely nodded at Nan Feng.

Nan Feng noticed a glimpse of strangeness in the young mistress’s eyes but did not give it much thought.

After Nan Feng and Ye Ge seated themselves, the banquet formally commenced.

Thanks to Nan Feng’s gift of Daughter’s Red, the taste of the banquet seemed to be elevated. Magistrate Song ordered his servants to pour wine for the guests.

Being a rather democratic official and considering that it was time for the banquet, Magistrate Song voluntarily told his guests, "Do not just sit idly. Eat if you want to eat, drink if you want to drink, toast if you wish to toast, and chat if you wish to chat. Do as you please, as long as the table is not overturned."

Thus, everyone started the night by toasting to Lady Song, the hostess, then to Magistrate Song. Soon it was time for idle chatter.

As Magistrate Song said, Ye Ge was usually quite reserved, hence during the chitchat, he only drank his wine. However, he watched Nan Feng as he drank, and she clinked glasses with him.

Wan Jian’an, who was seated opposite to Nan Feng, had not seen her in a long while. Surprised by her affability, he wanted to toast Nan Feng. Wu Yang and Chen Niannian expressed the same sentiment. Seeing how much Magistrate Song liked Nan Feng, they naturally toasted her, warmly addressing her as "sister-in-law".

Nan Feng had been trying to keep a low profile, but she still became the center of attention. Not wanting to be the focus, she quickly thought of a topic: how Lady Song and Magistrate Song first met, shifting the attention back to Lady Song.

Lady Song had always taken great pride in her relationship with Magistrate Song, hence she gladly spent a long time describing when and how they first met, their play fights as children, how Magistrate Song was a bookworm and she, a chivalrous girl.

However, when she used the term "chivalrous girl," Lady Song glanced at Ye Ge, appearing somewhat uneasy. Seeing that Ye Ge had no reaction, she continued her story.

Song Xiaoyue, who had long grown tired of hearing these old stories, could almost recount them word for word herself. She yawned several times.

Song Xiaoyue had planned before the banquet to offer a performance for her mother. She wanted to show her filial piety and capture Ye Ge’s attention. Although she felt deflated after seeing Nan Feng, she was still determined.

She admitted that Nan Feng was pretty, but she, Song Xiaoyue, was not lacking in looks either. It was just that Nan Feng looked thinner than her. But her mother had told her that a plump girl was more suitable for childbearing, while being too thin was not conducive to carrying on family lineage.
