Xi Feng didn't dare to answer this, and didn't know how to comfort her, so she stood silently behind Lao An and helped her droop her shoulders.

Lao An said, "The young master of the in-laws gets married. The old master and I are so old that we can't stand the tiring of boats and rides. We can't go to the capital in person to congratulate our in-laws and mother-in-law. Let the fifth couple go on our behalf."

"I heard that the girl from the Peng family will also go to the capital to settle in advance. The master and Mrs. Peng will go there, as well as the girl from the Peng family's dowry... The Peng family may charter a boat to go there. A Feng, otherwise, you can set off a few days in advance and go with the Peng family, and the road will be safe."

The Peng family is going to marry their daughter, so they naturally have to go there early to prepare. They will set off in early August. After calculating, there are not many days left.

Xi Feng and Chu Li plan to leave after the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Xi Feng said, "The daughter-in-law will go to discuss this with the Fourth Master. If the Fourth Master is fine, it would be okay to go there for a few days in advance."

"Well, I'll prepare a gift for the young master of my in-laws in private. Then you will take it over." Lao An said, rubbed his forehead and said, "It's hot and I'm sleepy. Okay, don't beat me anymore. I'll go to bed for a while, you can go back."

Xi Feng was sent out by Lao An.

"Fourth Sister-in-law." Xi Feng met the fifth wife Ji as soon as she left Ning'an Hall.

Ji smiled and said, "I'll talk to Lao An. Lao An seems to have something to worry about this time, and his appetite has dropped a lot. He has even cancelled his itinerary to go to Fenghuang Mountain to hide from the summer every year. I don't know what Lao An is worried about? What does the fourth sister-in-law know?"

Ji's smiled gently and kindly, but Xi Feng didn't see a smile in her eyes.

Xi Feng said, "Maybe it's too hot, and Lao An is unhappy to walk around. Lao An is afraid of heat. If it's hot every year, the appetite will be bad."

I didn't mention a single word about Qi Jie'er.

Ji smiled, "I made jelly, should I have a bowl of it?"

Xi Feng glanced at the jelly that the maid behind her was holding in her hand, shook her head, "No need, I just ate a bowl of cold cake."

"Next time, I won't talk to the fourth sister-in-law anymore, I'm going to go in."

"Fifth brother and sister." Xi Feng called her and said, "Old An just slept, you might as well come over later."

"It's okay, I'll wait for Lao An to wake up in the hall."

Ji turned around and entered Ning'an Hall.

Su Ping curled her lips and said to Xi Feng in a low voice, "Madam, why do I feel that the fifth wife seems to be hostile to you? Madam, you have never offended the fifth wife, right?"

"I can't eat or wear, why should everyone like me? It's her business that she doesn't like me, as long as she doesn't cause trouble for me." Xi Feng didn't take this matter to heart at all.

When I returned to Xifengju, I saw Chu Li coming back and was playing with Xiao Alan in my arms.

Xi Feng walked over and asked with a smile, "Why are you back so early today? Didn't you say you want to go to the village to have a look?"

"The eldest brother is here, I'll be back." Chu Li handed the little Alan to Su Xin on the side, and then asked her, "My mother called you over, but what's wrong?"

"The second master wrote to you, it's the eighth sister's business."

I just told the story of Bajie'er's illness.
