The madame glanced at Lee Miaoyin and saw that she was half-hanging her head. She looked respectful and indifferent. She nodded to herself and forced out a kind smile. She waved at Lee Miaoyin and said, "Miaoyin is back? Sit down. "

Lee Miaoyin replied with a faint smile. She wordlessly sat on the left side of the table, next to Lee Miaoan.

When Lee Chengji saw Lee Miaoyin, he was obviously not happy. His originally happy expression immediately darkened, and he said to Lee Miaoyin who had just sat down, "Why are you returning home now? Do you know what time it is? "

Lee Miaoyinfu stood up again and replied to Lee Chengji, "Father, your daughter forgot the time when she was discussing the ancient recipe with the teacher. I hope father can forgive me."

Lee Chengji was filled with anger. This girl always used a teacher to pressure him, but he couldn't do anything about it. He could only gnash his teeth in hatred.

Today, the Jiangdu was not like the Muzhang County, where there were countless noble officials. If he was too harsh on his daughter and his reputation spread, it would be of no use on his official journey.

Lee Chengji harrumphed, then turned his gaze to Lee Miaoyu. The haze instantly dissipated from his face, and he looked at Lee Miaoyu with a face full of smiles, "Miaoyu, come to dad's place."

Lee Miaoyu let go of Suyun's hand and walked towards Lee Chengji with a shy expression and a happy expression.

Looking at this scene, Lee Miaoyin thought to herself, could it be that this Lee Miaoyu has hooked up with some noble young master, and is about to fly onto a branch? Otherwise, why would this family hold her in such high regard? Putting everyone aside, just the madame alone had never placed any child in her eyes. In her eyes, there was only her son, Lee Chengji.

However, today, not only did she look at Lee Miaoyu with a doting expression, she was even grinning from ear to ear. This was not the kind of fake smile one would have when looking at her; this was a genuine smile that could pinch a fly to death.

Lee Miaoyu walked up to Lee Chengji with her head slightly bowed. She looked extremely shy. Only Lee Miaoyin noticed the smug look in her eyes.

"Miaoyu, you will be old by next month. I will have your mother take care of everything for you and will never let anyone look down on you. When we marry into the Qi family, you will be satisfied with your dowry. Don't worry." Lee Chengji smiled as he looked at his daughter, thinking that he still had a lot of farm businesses in his hands, so he changed his name quickly. When Miaoyu marries, it would be great and the Qi Residence would not look down on him.

Lee Miaoyin's heart skipped a beat. The Qi Residence they were talking about, wasn't it Qi Hongxuan's residence?

Looking at Lee Chengji's excited and joyous face, as if the promotion of a official was imminent, he guessed that it was correct. In Jiangdu, other than this Qi Residence being so inaccessible, what else could make Lee Chengji care so much about the Qi Residence?

Qi Hongxuan was the only unmarried man in the Qi Residence. Judging from his appearance, he did not intend to be a concubine. Could it be that Lee Miaoyu wanted to marry Qi Hongxuan?

Look at what they said. It was as if the Qi Residence had come to ask for a marriage.

Lee Miaoyin looked at Xiaotao, who shrugged, indicating that she didn't know anything.

At this moment, he heard Lee Miaoyu's sweet voice saying, "You haven't said a single word yet. Father, you seem to be saying that your daughter is going to be married tomorrow."

Lee Chengji laughed and said in a clear voice, "If we were to get married tomorrow, I would be reluctant. I will have to wait until Yu'er has reached the age of 15."

Madame Xu stood up and walked to Lee Miaoyu's side. She held Lee Miaoyu's delicate palm and smiled at Lee Chengji. "That's right, if we were to get married tomorrow, Master would really be reluctant to do so. Look at our Yu'er, how beautiful she is, even if a man saw her, he would still like her. It's no wonder that Third Young Master Qi would keep his body as jade for her."
