Chapter 85 Teasing
The Xue family has no extra guests today except for a few in-laws.
When Pang heard that her natal family had come, she rushed out to greet her. Seeing that only the second sister-in-law had come, she couldn't help being stunned. Looking behind, she saw that there were no other carriages and horses, so she couldn't help asking, "Why is there only the second sister-in-law alone?" ?”
Mrs. Wang was already very angry because she was sent by the old lady to settle down in Xue's house, so she couldn't go to Xie's house. When she heard Pang's question, she couldn't help but sneered, "If grandma thinks I'm not decent enough, I can go back now." .”
"Sister-in-law, don't say such things. One day I don't expect people from my natal family to visit me. I live in this house all day long, hoping that there will be more people in the family, so I asked this question in vain."
Pang went in to welcome Wang, and Wang looked at Xue's house, approving red and green, but he didn't see many guests, and he looked very deserted.
The banquet was held in the West Flower Hall. Mrs. Wang went in and took a look, and saw a few officials and wives who were not on the stage sitting and talking together. Looking at the attire, she knew that they were all of exceptionally low rank, although she had already thought about it. Counting, but I still couldn't help being disappointed, and my heart was naturally filled with fire.
Xue Shipeng specially made a new suit of clothes for today, and put them on early, but he was waiting at the door, and almost everyone who posted a post asked the servants to bring congratulatory gifts, and those who did not post a post naturally I can't count on it. When it was time to start the table at 3:30 pm, not even one table was filled with male and female guests.
The guests didn't care, they were all talking about it.
"I heard that Xie's house is very lively today. When I came here, I passed by there. Oops, the princes and princesses in the palace have followed the emperor's imperial decree and brought a few carts full of gifts. .”
"I heard that it was Mr. Lu who went to announce the decree. Could it be that Mr. Lu also went there for a drink today?"
"Princess Taiping's mansion and Marquis Wu'an's mansion are all gone, and Prince Chen also went to join in the fun."
"County Duanxian is really lucky. There is such a good girl in the family, and the whole family is blessed with it."
"That's not true! I heard that the empress really likes the county magistrate Duanxian, otherwise the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion has never had much contact with the aristocratic family. This time the eldest wife went there in person."
…
It's the Xie family again!
Xue Shipeng was dizzy with anger, he naturally knew better than others why Xie Zhiwei was made the head of Duanxian County, in the Zhuangzi outside the city that day, he saw with his own eyes that Xie Zhiwei saved Lu Yan, otherwise, Lu Yan personally went to Xie's house to drink wedding wine to make face for her today?
If it weren't for Xie Zhiwei, the glory of Xie's family would belong to Uncle Ningyuan's mansion today.
The old lady Jia came out to sit at the banquet, and when she heard the discussion of the guests, she said with a smile, "The old lady of the Xie family is really lucky. Having such a good granddaughter adds a lot of color to the family. I have raised several of them, and none of them has the power of aura. Son."
The guests didn't know how to answer the conversation. After a meal, they all got up and said goodbye. One said that there was a child in the family, and the other said that the old lady had a stomachache last night and wanted to go back to serve the sick. In a short time, everyone left .
The painting of Wuyi Tower was finished quickly thanks to the efforts of everyone, just waiting for coloring, and went to the Dahua Hall to finish the banquet, and the eldest princess called everyone to finish the half-painted painting together.
I don’t know who started it. What everyone drew together was the scene where the eldest princess and Xie Zhiwei played together. Miss Zeng was sitting by the window with her chin resting on her cheeks, her thoughts were drawn away by the sound of the music in her eyes. Holding a cup of tea, Zhang Qinghan's soul had already been seduced and ran away. She only saw a smile on the corner of her lips, as if she had seen the most beautiful side of the world.
The eldest prince was dressed in blue phoenix eight-treasure Lianyunku brocade, standing by the window with his hands behind his back, his eyes swept over the two people who were playing together, handsome and handsome, as outstanding as jade.
The second prince and the third prince are both in a trance, but the expressions of the two with their ears up to listen are vivid.
Xiao Xun was leaning against the window with his hands behind his back, with a lazy expression and sharp eyes, like a clouded leopard. I don't know who painted him, but the upturned eye tails were outlined very vividly.
No one doesn't like it. The huge piece of silk cloth freezes the previous scene in the house. The eldest princess was so happy that she said to Xie Zhiwei, "Sister Wei, I want to take this silk painting back to the palace and taste it with my father." Learn."
"Okay!" Xie Zhiwei has nothing he is unwilling to agree to. This painting was originally proposed by the eldest princess, and it was also drawn by the eldest princess who led everyone together. Moreover, with Emperor Shoukang's approval, I have no regrets for the young masters and girls present here today. No benefit.
When everyone heard this, they were also very happy, and gathered around to comment again.
Xiao Xun was bored, he walked up to Xie Zhiwei, at some point, he took a withered dandelion in his hand, gently passed it on the back of Xie Zhiwei's hand, and then walked down from the second floor, seemingly carelessly.
Xie Zhiwei froze, turned his back to him, stared at the dandelion spinning in his hand for a while, then looked around, seeing that no one was paying attention to him, he went downstairs as if nothing had happened.
Today’s Xie’s house is undoubtedly very lively. In Zhenqu Garden, you can see ladies in rich clothes, powerful ministers, dignitaries and young ladies in groups, enjoying flowers, swimming in the lake, or chatting and drinking tea.
Xie Zhiwei followed Xiao Xun like a little tail, she lowered her head, like a child who did something wrong, with restraint written all over her body.
In the previous and present lives, she had never been with a boyfriend before, and it was a day like today. If someone saw her and spread some gossip, she wouldn't have to be a human being.
Mu Guihong, who has been paying attention to Xiao Xun, noticed the movement of the two of them, and was overjoyed. He had already noticed that something was wrong with Xiao Xun, but asking about this kind of thing would definitely not lead to any results. He had to find out by himself. Answer.
He raised his feet and rushed downstairs, and just as he was walking to the stairs, he bumped into Xu Liang who was coming up, Xu Liang held his nose, his eyes were full of tears, "Young Lord Mu, you are so flustered, What are you going to do? It's too early to leave the banquet!"
Even if you are in a hurry to start the meeting, there is no need to do this!
Mu Guihong raised his eyes and looked again, but he no longer saw Xiao Xun and Xie Zhiwei, so he couldn't help but give Xu Liang a bitter look, and went downstairs past him, "I'm going to enjoy the flowers."
There is a waterside pavilion by the lake, which is hidden in a purple bamboo forest. It is a bit remote, but the scenery is excellent. Under the swaying of the breeze, a few clumps of osmanthus sprinkle red petals on the water, and the petals are sent over by circles of ripples. , Surrounding the water pavilion exudes bursts of sweet fragrance.
There was no one in the water pavilion, so Xiao Xun walked in.
The second update!
