"This is called returning the favor."
Gao Shilian could not calm down for a long time.
This matter was handled swiftly and decisively, giving him a taste of his own medicine.
"Did you really do that?"
Similarly, Xiao Yu, who had experienced many storms, could not calm down for a moment.
"Is there a need for Cao Feng to lie to us?”
Wasn't this the same as the shock caused by the Underworld Master?
The guests were all in a long discussion.
"The Li family has already disgraced the Cao family's reputation by escaping from their relatives.”
"Such behavior is truly despicable.”
Quite a few people joined the group that was denouncing the Li family. In the end, this matter was indeed too disgraceful.
Moreover, Cao Feng had told them the reason today. In the future, he would deliver Duan Zhixuan's head and give the Li family a tight slap.
There was nothing to say. This was the Li family's fault.
"Strange, how did Cao Feng do it?”
Xiao Yu said in confusion after he came back to his senses.
"That's right. The entire Cao family is filled with ordinary servants. Cao Feng is also a gentle and weak person.”
The Underworld Master could not figure this out either.
To put it nicely, they were guards, but to put it bluntly, they were private soldiers. They were far from what the Cao family's servants could compare to. Duan Zhixuan's martial strength was not low either.
Therefore, to be able to become a guard, one's combat strength would naturally be much higher than ordinary people.
"That's right. Could it be that it's not as simple as we think?”
Thinking of this, Xiao Yu looked over meaningfully.
"Maybe. The Cao family is not as bad as it seems.”
the Underworld Master said.
"This kid has hidden himself quite well."
Gao Shilian laughed.
The more this was the case, the more unfathomable this child was. The possibility of him being a dragon among men was not small.
"Not simple!"
The others also had the same guess. This was also the reason why they were in an uproar at the beginning.
Some of the old foxes looked at Cao Feng differently.
"After talking about the Li family, we have to talk about the Cao family again.”
Cao Feng continued.
"Phew."
He didn't know if it was because he was too shocked by what had happened just now, or if it was because of the change in his temperament.
After he spoke, even if his voice was not very loud, everyone quickly quieted down.
"The matter of the Li family did not affect the Cao family and me. The engagement banquet will proceed as usual.”
Everyone was silent, waiting for the next part.
"It's just that the person I'm engaged to today is not Li Xiu Ning, but Zhangsun Wugou.”
Cao Feng announced.
"No wonder there are so many people from the Gao Manor. Many of the people who came have a relationship with the Gao Manor.”
Some people finally understood.
"Gao Manor's Zhangsun Wugou is a talented woman of Daxing City. She is a daughter of a noble family whose faults cannot be picked on.”
"Fortunately, Li Xiuning ran away from her marriage. Otherwise, wouldn't the Cao family suffer if they married her?”
"Yeah, wouldn't we miss such a good wife?”
The crowd suddenly burst into a commotion.
It wasn't hard to see that after learning about the cause and effect of Li Xiuning's escape, many people were no longer moved and sincerely supported Cao Feng and Zhangsun Wugou's engagement.
"Brother Feng…"
Because it was an engagement today, according to custom, it was inconvenient for her to show her face. She could only stay in the backyard.
When Zhangsun Wugou heard Brother Feng's announcement, his heart beat even faster.
"Wugou, are you nervous?"
Zhangsun Wuji and Gao Xing asked with a smile.
The reason why the two of them stayed was to show the engagement token to the guests later.
This was also a process that had to be done. Regardless of whether it was the man or the woman, they had to show off.
After the show ended, the man and the woman would exchange in private.
"No, I haven't."
Zhangsun Wugou gathered his thoughts and said in a low voice.
"Alright, next up is the engagement token.”
Zhangsun Wuji waved his hand.
"Elder brother."
Zhangsun Wugou called out and handed over the engagement token he wanted to exchange.
"This is…"
Zhangsun Wuji was stunned when he saw the jade pendant.
"Alright."
He didn't say much because he knew the meaning of this jade pendant. After receiving the token, he wrapped the jade pendant in a red cloth and placed it on the tray.
"Thank you for coming to be guests. Next, we will officially begin the engagement banquet.”
Cao Feng spoke again at the banquet.
Then, he asked the servants of the Cao Residence to serve all the good wine and delicacies.
Laughter and laughter resumed at the banquet. From time to time, one could hear the guests discussing the Li family, but their comments were all negative.
"Cao Feng is here to offer a toast to all my friends and uncles.”
When the fine wine and delicacies were served, Cao Feng stood in the middle of the banquet and raised his wine glass.
"Alright."
Everyone raised their glasses in return and drank all the wine in their cups.
"Feng 'er, it's time to exchange the engagement tokens.”
Seeing that it was about time, Gao Shilian stood up and said.
He greeted his friends and family as he walked over.
"Alright, Uncle Gao."
Cao Feng replied, indicating for Li Cunxiao to do it immediately.
This was still an engagement banquet and not a real wedding banquet. He did not change his mind for the time being.
"Ta Ta…"
Seeing his lord's signal, Li Cunxiao walked out with the engagement token. It was also covered with a red cloth and placed on the tray.
On the other side, Zhangsun Wuji and Gao Xing walked out with the token and began to show it to the guests.
"Hua hua…"
Immediately, the sound of the red cloth being lifted could be heard.
"This jade pendant is natural and there are almost no carvings. The protection talisman on it seems to be from a famous person.”
When many guests saw the jade pendant from Zhangsun Wugou, they were secretly amazed. It was enough to see the value of the engagement token.
"The poor child has finally welcomed a new day.”
Gao Shilian's eyes reddened when he saw the protective jade pendant.
How could he not know the origin of this jade pendant? Today was also the engagement banquet, so he felt a lot.
After all, the child of brother-in-law and sister has a good home. Don't worry.
"This…"
Suddenly, a cry of surprise sounded.
Everyone's gaze turned in the direction of the exclamation and saw an old man looking at something in front of him with a shocked expression.
The object in front of them was Cao Feng's engagement token.
It was also a jade pendant. The jade pendant contained dragon essence (the essence of the jade), and it was still emitting a faint light.
The surface of the jade pendant was natural, with almost no traces of carving, indicating that the jade pendant was naturally formed.
It was not an exaggeration to say that such a jade pendant was a peerless treasure.
"I didn't expect Feng 'er to actually take out such a precious item as an engagement token.”
Gao Shilian, Xiao Yu, and the others were also shocked, while Li Jing and Fang Xuanling were dumbfounded.
It could be said that the other party had given them too many surprises today.
"This is a family heirloom of our Cao family.”
This jade pendant was obtained from the novice gift bag. It was of very high quality, Cao Feng explained.
