Chapter 306: Happy Holiday

February 9, 2013.

New Year's Eve.

Lin Feng got up early.

The spacious Yuan Zi felt very empty and quiet.

But Lin Feng sensed a lively atmosphere.

He didn't know if it was psychological.

There were many guest rooms in the Yuan Zi.

Last night Lin Feng slept in the master bedroom, wanting to pull Qi Yao to sleep together.

As it turned out, for some reason Yao Yao ran off to the guest rooms with her mother.

Qi Zhengwei and his son Qi Lei slept in the same room.

They said they were only resting for two nights, so there was no need to use two extra guest rooms.

There were six female servants in the Yuan Zi.

Because the Master's family was spending New Year in the Yuan Zi, four of the aunts drove out early in the morning to buy vegetables.

After the vegetables were brought back, Shu Xiaohui went into the kitchen and cooked together with the servant aunts.

While cooking, she also asked the aunts if they knew any girls to introduce to her son.

The aunts were actually locals of Yanjing; some had children living away year-round and lived alone.

Some had no relatives left, so they took up work as maids or similar.

To work at Lin Feng's Sihe Courtyard, they not only had passed a hospital check-up but also undergone a psychological test.

The aunts said Shu Xiaohui's family circumstances were so good that she couldn't possibly fail to find a daughter-in-law.

Shu Xiaohui wryly said her son Qi Lei had a somewhat introverted personality, a young mental age, and was like a little child.

In a mother's eyes, her son never grows up.

Lin Feng and Qi Yao were preparing to go to the cemetery to visit the deceased elderly couple.

He certainly didn't know yet that the couple were still alive and well.

Suddenly his phone rang.

It was Zhao Xiaoyang calling.

"Brother, we've returned to Yanjing."

"How come you're back? Didn't you spend the New Year?"

Lin Feng frowned and asked.

Zhao Xiaoyang laughed and said: "Wang Yu's family held their reunion early; on the 7th, the whole family sat down together to eat the New Year's feast."

"We drove back in the afternoon of the 8th; if not for delays on the road, we would have returned last night."

After Zhao Xiaoyang finished, Lin Feng said: "I'm going to the cemetery now."

"Brother, I also want to go; I estimate I'll get there before you, so I'll wait for you there."

"Okay!"

After hanging up, Lin Feng opened the car door and got in.

Qi Yao was already seated in the car.

"Yao Yao, after the New Year you need to learn to drive yourself; now watch carefully how I drive."

Lin Feng reminded.

Qi Yao nodded.

An hour later, Lin Feng arrived at the cemetery entrance.

Zhao Xiaoyang's Range Rover was already parked there.

Besides Zhao Xiaoyang and Wang Yu, there was an additional young girl with them.

She had an oval face, was fairly pretty, and her figure looked fine.

After getting out of the car, Zhao Xiaoyang gave a brief introduction.

The one who came back with him is named Wang Si, Wang Yu's cousin, a few months younger than Wang Yu, and she is nineteen this year.

After graduating high school, she didn't get into university and has been staying at home.

This year she plans to come to Yanjing to find a job.

Wang Si was somewhat bashful and shy as she nodded to Lin Feng and Qi Yao.

Lin Feng and Qi Yao exchanged a knowing glance.

Before leaving, Qi Yao's mother Shu Xiaohui had also asked several aunts to help find a girlfriend for Qi Lei, not the type that's been spoiled and overindulged since childhood……

Lin Feng nodded at Qi Yao to show he understood.

Then he opened the trunk and took out several large bags of incense candles and paper money.

Wang Si voluntarily helped carry one bag.

Wang Yu pulled Wang Si to walk ahead, while Lin Feng pulled Zhao Xiaoyang to smoke, falling behind.

"What do you think of Wang Si?"

Lin Feng asked Zhao Xiaoyang.

Zhao Xiaoyang looked surprised and whispered: "Brother, do you have a crush on her?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Feng flicked him on the forehead.

"Pfft! I'm just helping my younger brother-in-law see if there's a suitable girl for him to date."

Zhao Xiaoyang laughed and whispered: "I told you! Wang Si's looks are okay, but you definitely wouldn't be interested. Compared to Yao Sao, she's far inferior."

Lin Feng turned his head to look back.

Qi Yao probably didn't hear it.

Zhao Xiaoyang mentioned Wang Si.

"Wang Yu's family…… you have no idea, they're actually very conservative, lots of rules, good thing I have good Alcohol capacity—I got her dad and her uncles to drink so much they passed out under the table……"

Zhao Xiaoyang described the situation at Wang Yu's home, which also indirectly reflected the family's upbringing.

"This cousin has been strictly supervised since childhood; she never dated in elementary, middle, or high school, and during the New Year the family was even arranging matchmaking for her."

Wang Yu said there are few capable young people in their family nowadays, and it's better to go to the big city to see the world first.

So they brought Wang Si over, bro! After the New Year, I'll find this cousin a better job!

Lin Feng nodded.

After the matter was settled, Zhao Xiaoyang ran off ahead.

Lin Feng and Qi Yao walked together, talking about Wang Si.

"She's never had a boyfriend—girls like her are rare these days; she should get along well with your brother."

Lin Feng finished speaking, and Qi Yao nodded.

Lin Feng suddenly thought of his brother-in-law Wen Zhu, nicknamed "Wen Zhu'er".

Compared to Qi Lei and Guo Yanwen, that kid is so disappointing!

After paying respects at their parents' graves, everyone returned to the Sihe Courtyard; it was already past ten in the morning..

The dishes were all ready.

Actually, aside from a few home‑cooked dishes, most were store‑bought prepared dishes from the hotel.

Just heat them up after buying.

Six servants sat at one table, and Lin Feng's side had eight people at another table.

With an extra person who drinks Alcohol, Zhao Xiaoyang, the atmosphere got even livelier when they started drinking Alcohol.

Besides Lin Feng, Zhao Xiaoyang, and Qi Zhengwei, everyone else left the table after finishing their meal.

As soon as Wang Si arrived, Shu Xiaohui took a liking to her.

After the meal, she kept pulling Wang Si aside to ask all sorts of questions, making her feel uncomfortable.

Qi Lei couldn't stand it, so he found an excuse to call Shu Xiaohui away.

Shu Xiaohui wouldn't give up; in the afternoon she invited Qi Yao, Wang Yu, Wang Si, and two older women to go out shopping.

Of course, Qi Lei was also invited.

Wang Yu figured it out—Qi Yao's mother wanted to introduce her cousin Wang Si to her own son.

What a great opportunity!

This way, besides Zhao Xiaoyang's side, Wang Si could also establish a familial connection with Lin Feng's family.

Moreover, judging by Qi Lei's behavior, he doesn't seem like a spoiled rich kid; he's actually quite sincere.

Without Zhao Xiaoyang's prompting, she already thought of playing matchmaker.

In the end, as the group was out shopping, Qi Lei and Wang Si disappeared.

A quick phone call revealed they had run off to the arcade to play games.

Qi Lei is young at heart, Wang Si just graduated from high school not long ago—she's still basically a kid, so it's fun.

The two of them quickly started playing together.

By mid‑afternoon, as the group headed home, Wang Si had already secretly taken Qi Lei's hand.

Nowadays, young people fall in love at this speed.

In the afternoon, after sobering up, Lin Feng, Zhao Xiaoyang, and Qi Zhengwei were three short of a fourth, so they roped in an old lady to sit and play mahjong together.

That day, Lin Feng was very happy.
