Chapter 8 There are many rights and wrongs at the reception banquet
Ruan Jingxin rested in her small courtyard for a while, changed into her usual clothes, and then went to her mother's place, and the family went to the old lady's courtyard to have dinner together. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The old lady's leg hurts when the weather is bad, so the family dinner will be in the old lady's yard.
As soon as Ruan Jingxin stepped into the room, she saw Ruan Jingya, who was dressed exquisitely. Even if she did a good job of building her heart, but the enemy was standing in front of her like this, she couldn't help but shake the handkerchief in her hand vigorously.
"Why is my sister dressed so plainly?" Ruan Jingya looked Ruan Jingxin up and down, and said, "You are not too young, it is time to dress up." Mother just made us new clothes, and you're too late, so why don't you go to me and get two to change first?"
This one was not available in the previous life, Ruan Jingxin smiled and shook her head, "No need, isn't that dress made for tomorrow's plum banquet? ”
When the old lady heard this, she remembered, "Tomorrow Xin'er will go with you! You have been away from the capital all these years, and you should go out to meet the talent." ”
"But my sister didn't cut new clothes!" Ruan Jingya frowned lightly on the side, "I'm afraid it's too late now." She just wanted to show off and hit it, but she didn't expect it to make the old lady think of letting her be together.
The old lady frowned and looked at Xiao, "Could it be that Xin'er doesn't even have clothes to go to enjoy the flowers?"
Xiao Shi hurriedly said, "This is still there, mother rest assured, I will definitely give Xin'er a good night and there will be no mistakes." ”
The old lady nodded, "That's fine, let's have a feast." ”
The family banquet in Nguyen Mansion also has to be divided into tables for men and women. Ruan Jingxin sat under Ruan Jinghua in order, and sat beside her sister, Ruan Jingli, and then Ruan Jingxian, who came out of the third room. Ruan Jingli is half a year younger than Ruan Jingxin, but Ruan Jingxian is only nine years old.
Everyone sat down, except for the four rooms that had already been divided, the Ruan family, a big family, was all here.
"The second child is back today, you can let go of the drink. The old lady is very tolerant of her children and grandchildren, "But remember to leave someone to carry you back." ”
Because of the old lady's jokes, the atmosphere was even more relaxed. Ding followed up and said a few funny words, which made the old lady even more happy.
"Fourth sister, I toast you. This fruit wine is sweet and the most delicious, and you can taste it too. Ruan Jingxian raised her wine glass and smiled extremely sweetly.
Ruan Jingxin's eyes fell on her wine glass, and she shook her head with a smile, "My illness is cured, but I can't drink alcohol yet." ”
When Ruan Jingli heard this, she smiled and said, "Since my sister can't drink, let's replace the bar with tea." ”
"If my sister really can't drink, just take a sip of it, and the right is to give my sister this face. Ruan Jingxian didn't follow.
Ruan Jingxin raised her eyelids and looked directly into Ruan Jingxian's eyes, with a slight hint of mockery. In the last life, she just came, how did she know that this era is different in terms of the identity of the concubine, and she drank this glass of wine stupidly, but she lost her face. I didn't expect that the reception banquet in this life had changed time, but this ridiculous drama was still staged.
Ruan Jingxian was seen as empty, although she was very liked by her mother-in-law and was self-raised by her mother-in-law, but she could never take off her identity as a concubine.
"Why should the fourth sister be like this, the sixth sister is still ...... young" Ruan Jingli said another sentence in a timely manner that made people think about it, as if Ruan Jingxin was bullying the small with the big.
Ruan Jingya hooked the corners of her lips and watched several Ruan Jingxin being calculated, she saw that Ruan Jinghua wanted to speak, and gently pulled her sleeve. Ruan Jinghua's face flashed with a trace of unbearability, but she closed her mouth.
The people at the table all quieted down and looked at Ruan Jingxin, Ruan Jingxin's eyes turned red instantly, her tears could not fall, and she bit her lip gently, "How can the fifth sister say this, the doctor told me not to drink, I just rejected the sixth sister, the sixth sister is young, just complain that I don't give face, you, how can you say that......"
Isn't it just pretending? In the previous life, he was disdainful of his own pride, but in this life, he didn't mind giving back to the other in his own way.
The faces of the people at the table changed. Xiao's face sank, she glanced at the old lady, saw her face was frosty, and felt a little comforted in her heart, so she said lightly, "The sixth sister has been raised by the side of the third brother and sister over the years, but she has grown more and more, and she knows that the cousin who asked for the concubine wants to save face." It's just that your cousin really can't get drunk, so you can do it. I feel sorry, I feel sorry for your fourth sister, she has made a lot of sins along the way. ”
The third lady Zheng glared at Ruan Jingxian fiercely, "It seems that I have spoiled you too much during this time, and I will not even distinguish between respect and inferiority." Go back to your yard and learn the rules again!"
Ruan Jingxian's face looked at Ruan Jingli with a little panic, but Ruan Jingli just lowered her head.
Ruan Jingxin raised her eyebrows, in this case, the first person to look at is either the person who instigated or is an accomplice. This Ruan Jingli is hidden deep enough. No wonder in the previous life, as a concubine, she also married into a wealthy family and became a wife.
The old lady didn't speak, and when she saw Ruan Jingxin's weeping look, she remembered that she was coquettish in her arms, and she felt distressed for a while, "Xin'er, don't pay attention to this can't be on the stage, come on, send the fifth sister and the sixth sister back to the yard and be grounded for ten days!"
The status of the concubine will not be very high, not to mention the children born to the concubine? They are also the masters in name, but the weight is not enough. Like these noble families, the general concubines are the daughters of petty officials, although they are a few points more noble than ordinary people, but they are really not enough to see in the mansions of wealthy families.
Ruan Jingli hung her head, did not refute a word, got up and saluted very obediently, with an expression of not the slightest resentment when she was tired. In contrast, Ruan Jingxian, who was angry on her face, was even more disliked.
Ruan Jingya looked at Ruan Jingxin quietly, only feeling that this Ruan Jingxin was also quite a bit of a trick, and she was a little unhappy. The big house and the third room are a little disdainful of the second room, so they are also affected. The Ding family of the big house is the niece of the old lady, from the county mansion, and she consciously is two noble parts more noble than other concubines, and she is used to seeing her eyes above the top. The Zheng family of the third room is from a scholarly family, and his father is a royal historian from the third grade, and he is a high-ranking person.
Although the father of the Xiao family in the second room is now a general of Zhenguo from the second grade, his ancestors have been hunters for generations, until Xiao's father walked from the mountains to the battlefield, and he climbed to his current position step by step. This point is not as good as the heritage of the nobles and clans that have passed down to the family for a hundred years. Therefore, the Ding family and the Zheng family did not laugh at the Xiao family's previous identity in private.
