Princess Agent: The Sweet Country Girl's Way to Glory - Chapter 498

Chapter 498 Take A Step Back

Facing Su Wanwan, Zhang Xiucai coughed and said, “What we scholars care about is harmony. How about this, I can take a step back?”

He still retreated? How? Suddenly, Su Wanwan became interested and said, “Take a step back? What do you mean? Why don’t you open the skylight and say something bright-just say it!”

“…”

I didn’t expect Su Wanwan to be so anxious! Zhang Xiucai’s impression of Su Wan Wan diminished a bit. He immediately straightened his pole and looked at Su Wan Wan with a sidelong gaze. “I’m not willing to write a poem for your shop after the banquet is done. How about I personally mention a word to you?”

A poem with an inscription wants her to give him time and money to cook? Moreover, he spoke to her in such an arrogant tone!

Qi Chengfeng was so talented that he could easily pass the Jinshi examination. He had never revealed anything to anyone, nor would he use a small bit of talent to lower the status of others and raise himself!

As for him, he was just a mere scholar! Su Wanwan rolled her eyes and said, “Are you really dreaming? Let me tell that person that I’m not a philanthropist. I won’t cook for you just because you don’t spend a penny. I’m also not someone who cherishes talent. I won’t stick my face on someone who complacently gives you money to make you happy!”

After saying that, Su Wanwan looked at the guard beside her and said, “Send the guests off!”

Zhang Xiucai was so angry that his face turned pale. He pointed at Su Wanwan and said, “I am the only scholar in our village. Please show me some respect! Otherwise, I will definitely make you regret it!”

He was just a scholar, what background could he have? Only then did he get his fame, and now he doesn’t even have a job, right? Where did he get such a loud shout! Su Wanwan looked at Zhang Xiucai and stopped talking.

Just as the guard was about to pull Zhang Xiucai away, Qi Chengfeng suddenly stopped him and said, “Stop! This is Zhang Xiucai, what are you doing? Zhang Xiucai is at least a scholar, how dare you attack him? How disrespectful!”

Why did Qi Chengfeng and Su Wanwan say differently? Why were the two of them talking ironically now? The guards looked at each other. They didn’t know what to do. Su Wanwan didn’t understand what Qi Chengfeng was thinking. She also followed suit and said, “Forget it, you guys go down!”

The servant retreated. Qi Chengfeng said, “Zhang Xiucai, don’t panic. You are ignorant. Don’t mind.”

“Humph!” Zhang Xiucai snorted coldly and said, “What do you mean? Are you willing to accept this wedding banquet?”

“Naturally.” Qi Chengfeng nodded and said, “It doesn’t matter if you don’t give me the money. However, I have to say that we don’t want your poems and paintings. After all, your hands are so precious. How can you pick up a pen casually?”

Why did Qi Chengfeng say such flattering words? Su Wanwan was stunned, but she forcefully suppressed the displeasure in her heart and listened. Zhang Xiucai was extremely happy and said, “You are still a little self-aware! I think you should teach your wife a lesson in the future and let him know who should not be offended! Otherwise, when you go out and offend the Emperor, Your Highness, then … Hmph!”

Zhang Xiucai did not know that the person in front of him was His Highness! As for the emperor, he was still the princess’ senior brother!

If he knew, Zhang Xiucai would have liked to pull out his tongue! Moreover, the person in front of him was the princess! How dare he say such words!

“Humph!” Su Wanwan rolled her eyes, but still did not put Zhang Xiucai in her eyes. She only said, “Since my husband has agreed, then you can leave. The two of us have always kept our promise. I can totally do what you said about a table without any repetitive dishes.”

“That’s good!” Zhang Xiucai nodded and left proudly.

As soon as Zhang Xiucai left, Su Wanwan could not help but ask, “What did you agree to do? However, a small scholar thinks that he has become the emperor! He still wants to eat free food, what are you enduring him for?”

Qi Chengfeng immediately opened the folding fan in his hand and gave it to Su Wanwan. “Wife, do you think I would agree to him easily?”

Su Wanwan was stunned when she heard Qi Chengfeng’s words. She felt that nothing good would happen in a few days. She couldn’t help but suspect that Qi Chengfeng wanted to teach Zhang a lesson.

However, he heard Qi Chengfeng say, “Wife, what would you like to eat? Today, I will have people go shopping in the town.”

Su Wanwan thought for a moment and told him about almost all the seasons in the town at this time. Qi Chengfeng nodded, wrote a list and ordered people to go to the town to buy.

When Auntie Xu heard that the Qi Family couple had agreed, she was very unhappy. The next day, she ran over to Zhang Xiucai and said, “Look at the bad water in their stomachs. Before, the villagers had only eaten cold skin and paid back the silver. The next day, they raised the price and asked for the silver to leave and were beaten. Tell me, how can such a family cooperate?”

“Their family doesn’t need money, and they don’t need me to do anything for them.” Zhang Xiucai was very pleased with himself and said, “Their family made a banquet for me for nothing!”

“You made it for nothing? Then you can’t believe it!” Auntie Xu stamped her feet and said, “How could there be such a good thing as losing a pie in the world? They must have waited for you to be caught off guard and embarrassed you!”

“It can’t be?” Although Zhang Xiucai said this, he frowned and felt a little suspicious in his heart. He suddenly heard a cry of alarm and immediately went out to look.

Many villagers stood behind the courtyard and watched, only to see five oxcarts carrying things parked in front of the Qi Clan courtyard.

Zhang Xiucai’s heart immediately relaxed. He said to Auntie Xu, “Auntie Xu, look, the Su Clan has already prepared something. Don’t think too much about it. Actually, you’re just trying to convince me to let you handle the banquet. Even so, you shouldn’t have cursed me.”

“Ai! Zhang Xiucai, I didn’t” Auntie Xu wanted to explain, but Zhang Xiucai returned to the room and shut the door with a “pa” sound. “Don’t interfere with my studies.”

“Bah! What’s the point of those stupid books you’re reading! You’re just a nerd!” Auntie Xu cursed as she walked away.

At this moment, Su Wanwan and Qi Chengfeng were counting the things that the servants had bought in front of the courtyard.

Not long after, he discovered that Zhang Sheng had also walked over. Looking at these things that he had never seen or seen before, he was extremely happy in his heart. However, he said, “These things aren’t enough, are they? You guys still want to buy more? Furthermore, what about meat? Why haven’t I seen them?”

“The pigs are still in the pigsty!” Qi Chengfeng replied.

“How many pigs?” Zhang Xiucai asked.

“Five.” Qi Chengfeng said, pointing to the chickens and ducks walking in the courtyard, saying, “There are also these.”

So many!

Zhang Xiucai nodded his head in satisfaction and said, “Good! I’ll make it for you!”

After saying that, Zhang Xiucai happily left.

Qi Chengfeng’s eyes revealed a trace of mockery as he laughed in his heart, “I’ll see if you still have such a posture that day!”
