Le Yu is not embarrassed for her, she looks at the various dishes on the shelf, there are gold line borders, there are sterling silver reliefs, there are painted peonies magnificent, and there are also light white and blue very plain, Le Yu's eyes fell on the bottom layer of the shelf, a small and delicate plate lying quietly, the whole body is refreshing water green, there are several small lotus flowers painted on the edge of the plate, half put down, very fresh and elegant.

Le Yu said happily: "This is it." Commanding people to move the whole set of utensils out of the warehouse, and then ordering someone to clean it, and assigning the girls in Gu's courtyard to be in charge of each item, Le Yu stood in the court, looked at the girls standing with their hands down, and said with a smile: "After assigning their own errands, you must take care of your own affairs.

Seeing that Le Yu is very organized, and the method is feasible, the daughter-in-law and mother-in-law who are slightly older below have also taken a look at it, and Qi Qi should be.Le Yu took a plate and a bowl as a sample and took it to the old lady to see, and the old lady looked at it and said well, "It's hot and humid in summer, and the guests must have little appetite, this tableware is very refreshing, looking appetizing, it's better than those heavy gold and silverware."

Seeing that the old lady agreed, Gu Shi and Yourong took the prepared guest list to the old lady for a look, the old lady read and deleted some and added some, and told Gu in detail, what was deleted was because the usual exchanges were just courtesy and not intimate, and what was added was because of some roundabout relationships, Gu suddenly realized, and he also had more in his heart about the Xiao family's connections.

After setting the list, they began to invite guests, and the Le Xian sisters also began to invite their friends.

Le Yu played with a white and smooth jade bead, "I know it in my heart." Seeing her appearance and not care, the embroiderer sighed worriedly in her heart.

As she was talking, Fangzi came in and said with a smile: "Fourth girl, Madame, please come over." Le Yu looked at the sky, the sky was overcast, and said strangely: "It's going to rain soon, is there something wrong with my mother calling me at this time?"

Fangzi said with a smile: "The main dish of the banquet is puffer fish, and it has just been sent in an urgent six-hundred-mile manner, and Mrs. invites the fourth girl to come over and have a look." The main dish of the Xiao family's hibiscus banquet every year will be a raw puffer fish slices, the puffer fish is delicious and rare to grow only in the deep sea, and the puffer fish can be transported to the capital only four or five out of ten after salvaging the puffer fish every year, plus the price is more toxic than gold, and only the Xiao family has the financial resources and skilled chefs to deal with it, and the main dish of the hibiscus banquet every year is what everyone is looking forward to.

Leyu has only eaten puffer fish, but she has never seen it alive, so she was interested at the moment and instructed Lingge: "I will take your embroidered sister Sister Qingmei over to have a look, and you stay at home to watch the house."

Ling Ge had a bitter face, and his round cheeks were as cute as a goldfish: "Girl, I also want to see such a strange thing."

Xiu Shu smiled generously, "Then you go with the girl, I'll stay at home." Le Yu shook her head angrily, and didn't care that she followed with a smile, and left with Qingmei.

Le Yu looked at the increasingly gloomy sky, "If it rains, I'll eat over there, you don't have to wait for me." The front foot stepped into Yaohuaju, and the back foot poured down in a downpour.

Seeing Le Yu coming, Gu Shi hurriedly smiled and said, "Come and see." Le Xian was wearing a goose yellow tie waist flowing long skirt, standing in the dim room and leaning over to look at the puffer fish in the fish tank, and straightened her waist when she saw Le Yu come in.

Her long hair is like lacquer, bright and elegant eyebrows and eyes, with a warm and gentle smile, like a beautiful scenery in the dim room but so blurred, Le Yu suddenly felt a little in a trance, and what she saw in front of her seemed to be the sister who was always protective and caring when she was gentle and close to herself a long time ago, and she would smile and beckon, "Sister, I left you a golden silk crisp", in the blink of an eye, the house was lit with a lamp and candle, the lights were brilliant, and the smile of the bright-eyed beauty under the candlelight was so shallow that it could not reach the bottom of her eyes, with imperceptible alienation and indifference.

Le Yu lowered her eyes, when she lifted it, she was as calm as water, and walked to the front of the tank with a gentle smile, there was a brown round-eyed and chubby fish swimming inside, Le Yu said strangely: "Is this the pufferfish?" said that his finger gently poked the fish's snow-white abdomen, the fish seemed to be frightened, and the small round mouth sucked hard, and the snow-white belly rose as if it was inflated, floating on the water, and the scaring appearance was very cute.

Le Xian said with a smile: "This is the highly poisonous pufferfish, sister be careful." Gu smiled and personally brought the soft and glutinous sweet red bean sweet soup over, and beckoned the two sisters to drink, "The banquet is ready, just waiting for the day to come." ”

The two sat under the Gu family, drinking soup silently, thunder rumbled outside the window, lightning crossed the sky from time to time, illuminating the room white, Le Xian stared out of the dark window, and listened to the rain sound: "Father is afraid that he will not come back to eat." ”

Gu Shi ordered the meal to be set, and the table was full of Le Xian's favorite food, Gu Shi said to Le Yu apologetically: "I thought you wouldn't come over to eat, so I didn't prepare your favorite food, next time my mother will make it up for you." ”

How could Le Yu be jealous because of this, shook her head with a smile, and gave Gu Shi another chopsticks and lettuce, and Le Xian took a spoonful of fish soup. After eating, the rain was lighter, and the two sisters knew that Chopinway was coming back soon, so they were leaving. Gu sent it to the door, and after a lot of advice, he let the two go back.

The dark night seemed to dull people's mood for no reason, Le Yu was a little upset, and moved the umbrella held by Ling Ge to her, and immediately her left shoulder was a lot wet. The cold rain fell on her shoulders, and Le Yu was excited, but her impetuous heart calmed down.

Walking to the place where the road branched, Le Xian's eyes looked straight ahead of the unknown, and asked Le Yu expressionlessly, "Sister, do you say that our house is too deserted? On such a rainy night, there are only a few courtyards where people live with sporadic lights, should we add some people?"

Le Yu didn't understand what she meant, the skirt was already wet from the rain, and it was very uncomfortable to stick to her legs, so she was also a little worried: "Next year, the eldest brother will get married, and the new sister-in-law will naturally be lively when she enters the door." ”

Le Xian's expression changed, and she suddenly smiled deeply, "Yes." After saying that, he didn't look back, and walked straight away. Leaving Leyu alone, standing in place, not knowing what she was thinking.

On the nineteenth day, the sky was very cool, and the breeze was very pleasant. Early in the morning, the Gu family took Le Xian Le Yu Le Rao to welcome guests at the second gate, the princess of Huaping County, the princess of Ding'an, the An family, and the British Mansion all came one after another, and many young ladies were invited by Le Xian and Le Rao.

Le Rao glanced at Le Yu, sneered softly, and whispered while Gu Shi was not looking: "I don't know which celebrities my sister has invited?" ”

Le Yu didn't squint, maintained the most dignified and calm smile, and said lightly: "Second sister will know in a while, why worry." ”

Finally saw Yizhen follow her stepmother, Mrs. Dingyuanhou, to get out of the sedan chair, Leyu greeted her happily, the two looked at each other and smiled, and first greeted Mrs. Dingyuanhou with the Gu family, "Mrs. Dingyuanhou Wan'an." ”

The step-family of Dingyuan Marquis is also a beauty, dressed very decently, and speaks very modestly, "The hibiscus banquet in the house is the best in the capital, and I really want to see it well today." ”
