213. Feast

Guests come to the door one after another, the Yan Mansion is lively, because the time is still early, not to use the feast, so the guests will be led to the back of the garden to enjoy everywhere, Mrs. Yan for the Yan two girls this "blind date" is also considered to be a blood capital, or rent or buy land to get nearly a thousand plates of chrysanthemums into the house, a total of nine kinds of nine colors, in the back garden around the pavilion corridor Xuan Pavilion piled up, high and low staggered, the front of the Hou Xuan, far away look like a five-color gorgeous flower slope, piled into a mountain is called "nine flowers Shanzi" , and even use flowers to surround the open room, and there is no gap in the ring, which is called "Flower City".

The guests were also shocked by the Yan family's generosity, but many people knew that Yan Zike's mother, wife, and brother-in-law were all from the big businessman Jia family, and there were many Zhuangzi shops and fields in their hands. If you want to be powerful, powerful, and favored, this is a backer of gold!

No matter how rich the old lady and wife are, where else can they find someone like this?

Although Yan Zike is a little nervous, but who doesn't want to have a relationship with him in the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty? It doesn't matter if he is lonely, the strength of the people is here, besides, if he becomes a family, it is impossible for him to help his family alone!

After thinking about it like this, people with a heart are even more active, and they find an excuse to talk to Mrs. Yan or Mrs. Yan.

This has achieved Mrs. Yan's goal, throwing so much silver to hold a luxurious banquet, of course, is to show off your own financial resources, where can you recruit good sons-in-law and daughters-in-law if you have no money?

Anyway, that's what Mrs. Yan thought, and it seemed to work well, and last night's incident was temporarily put behind her, and she was circling among the official wives with a spring breeze on her face- In fact, Mrs. Yan also has her own knot that she can't say, she usually goes to other people's houses for banquets, and most of these high-ranking official wives don't look down on her, a woman from a civilian background, she has no vision, she has no background, and the rules in the circle of officials and relatives are also learned later, to put it bluntly, she is a hillbilly, if it weren't for Yan Zike's face, who would be willing to surrender her taste to deal with such a halfway monk?

Mrs. Yan is always a little unable to raise her head in front of these official wives, the taste of being alienated and despised is not pleasant, she has always hated and yearned for this circle, which has almost become a heart disease, she desperately hopes that one day she can stand in this circle with her eyebrows raised, but unfortunately her husband did not ask her for a seal back, and even the mother-in-law on her head is still white- This is from the instruction of her father-in-law, father-in-law has experienced ups and downs in this life, and at this age he has developed a cautious temperament, the Tao is that the eldest son has risen too fast all the way after entering the office, looking at the court and the opposition, which can sit in the position ......of the third grade at such a young age? With a grade upper body, when you communicate in daily communication, you are facing a group of officials with different coffee positions, whether it is the old lady or her, due to the limitations of her background and education, it is not enough to deal with it, so why bother to lose that person with the aura of swagger on her head?

Therefore, Mrs. Yan is anxious to say goodbye to her children, why not to let her husband ask for a seal for herself earlier? It's not good for you to marry an official lady to come in, the mother-in-law and mother-in-law are still white, and when the in-laws meet each other in the future, they will look better if they are white and shorter...... It can be more reasonable to manage a daughter-in-law.

It's okay today, because the wives of the official family want to make friends with the Yan family, they can't help but let go of their usual contempt for Mrs. Yan, and take the initiative to come up and talk enthusiastically, so that Mrs. Yan's vanity is fiercely satisfied, and even the old lady can't sit still in the side hall, and comes out energetically to brush up on the zΓ i feeling.

The masters, young masters and young ladies of the Yan family are still busy entertaining guests, Yan Qi has never seen so many guests from the Yan family when he is so old, all of them are beautifully decorated with brocade clothes and colorful skirts, no matter how beautiful the chrysanthemums are, they can't suppress the young man's tender and beautiful face...... Fortunately, the Yan family's house is quite large, otherwise the guests would have overflowed outside.

Just thinking that there were a lot of people, I heard a loud laugh from a distance, followed by a bombardment of greetings, and I didn't need to look at it to know that the Wu family was coming.

Dozens of faces with a high degree of similarity poured in from outside the Yimen, making Yan Qi want to use Lianlianguan or Elimination or something to clear up the Wujia supernatural guerrillas, and his eyes were dazzled, okay! This is not a Lianliankan, this is clearly looking for your sister! Where is Wu Yue? Please find your good friend in the picture below.

Yan Qi greeted her slowly, and before she opened her mouth to say hello, the leader came over a few steps and scooped her up from the ground, threw her into the sky like a baby, and then caught it again, "Haha" smiled, and her voice was as loud as thunder: "Seven girls have grown so tall!

"Let me go. Yan Qi was very embarrassed under the gaze of many martial artists, "Uncle Wu, you just met me not long ago." ”

"Really?" Wu Changdao didn't seem to remember at all, he threw Yan Qi to the ground, patted her head and smiled, "I'll see your father in a few days, do you have anything to bring?"

"Uh, let him eat and sleep well and don't fight with you. Yan Qi's bun was crooked by him.

"The fight must be fought," Wu Changdao laughed, "I haven't seen you for so many years, Lao Tzu has to take a good look at whether that bastard is abolished at the border pass!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Wu Changdao strode inside, followed by Wu Chang Spear, Wu Chang Sword, Wu Chang Halberd, Wu Chang Axe, Wu Chang Yue, Wu Chang Hook, Wu Chang Fork...... Wu Changge, this one actually came, it's really rare, "Don't eat too much at noon." He reminded Yan Qi with a smile.

"Look at you, what a big feud? "Yan Qidao.

After the eighteen weapons of the martial family have passed, they are the juniors of the martial family, Wu Ling, Wu Jiu, Wu Huan, Wu Xi, Wu Ting, Wu Wei...... Wu Zhen, Wu Shan, Wu Yue...... Yan Qi thought that it was fortunate that his family had been named according to the word Wang in his life, if he accidentally chose a side with few words, how would the child born later be named?

Wu Huan came up and asked Yan Qi in a flat voice: "What about Jinghong, I have a new rubbing here." ”

Yan Qi: "I just led the guests into the back garden, you look inside." ”

Wu Ting then walked over and smiled: "I heard that Kang Shao'er is also here today?

Yan Qi: "I see it's okay, you do it, I'll let it go." ”

Wu Thirteen: "Yan Xiaoqi, last time, you said that my feet stink so much that I can smell them outside the second door, right?!"

Yan Qi: "I never tell this kind of big truth, you go and ask others." ”

Wu Shan: "Xiao Qi, we'll be playing the Dragon Nine Sons game together for a while!"

Yan Qi: "Fourteenth sister, I haven't seen you for a long time in Chiba Temple, the nine sons of the dragon are outdated, you have to keep pace with the times, have you ever heard of "Plants vs. Zombies"?"

Wu Yue: "I've been here for a day, your family has invited tens of thousands of guests, today? My family can't enter the alley even on horseback! I've been stuck with the outside for a long time! Is the little lotus root here? Why are you dressed so plain today? Hey, the earrings are very good-looking, where did you buy them?"

Yan Qi: "Pour me a cup of tea, and say hello to your family makes my throat scream." ”

The two waited in place for a long time, and finally saw Lu Lotus enter the door, accompanied by her mother, Mrs. Lu, and Lu Lian, who was walking behind.

Mrs. Lu has always rarely gone out to socialize, and it has to be said that it was an unexpected joy to be able to come to Yan Mansion today, Yan Qi and Wu Yue stepped forward to salute and greet, no one paid attention to Lu Lian, just one pulled Lu Lotus and the other hugged Mrs. Lu, and went to the hall with a smile.

"Auntie looks so good, I haven't seen her for a long time, and she looks seven or eight years younger!" Wu Yue said happily.

Mrs. Lu laughed when she was said, patted her head and Yan Qi's shoulder, and said softly: "I want to thank you for taking care of Xiao Lotus on my behalf, and I also bothered the two of you." ”

"Look at what you said, the little lotus root is like our own sisters, what do you take care of or not. If you want to say that the one who really takes care of us is still Lord Qiao, the prefect of Qiao's mansion! He has reached out to help three times, and we have never thanked him. Wu Yue's words were deliberately said to Lu Lian, and Wu Yue still holds a grudge against Lu Rong and Qiao Lezi last time when she secretly poured dirty water on Lu Lotus and Qiao Lezi's heads.

Lu Lian walked behind expressionlessly, and he had never heard this.

Wu Yue glanced at her, but she was a little happy in her heart, looking at her dress today, it was not too glamorous or too light, after all, she didn't press Lu Rong like before, it seemed that she was cured by the Jiang Mama from the palace, should!

Five, six, seven and three people surrounded Mrs. Lu into the hall, this hall is the Yan Mansion to entertain guests, called "Bi Hao Hall" , usually rarely opened, because it is too big, five rooms wide, three in depth, the middle is opened in one go, separated by the hall pillar screen, etc., all four are floor-to-ceiling glass windows, each window has a different scene, or a few plantains, or a wall rockery, or a few poles to repair bamboo, or full of green vines, the guests come to sit at will, divided into their respective spaces for men and women, five, six, seven or three accompany Mrs. Lu to sit in a quieter corner, drinking tea and chatting, Lu Lian sat silently next to her, a pair of eyes that are not very peaceful but kept glancing at the young male guests who came to the door。

I heard that today, the Yan family invited all the high-ranking officials and family members of the court, which is tantamount to an excellent opportunity to make friends and relatives, and Lu Lian doesn't want to let it go.

She and her biological mother are not having a good time in the Lu family now, even if Aunt Xu is pregnant, she will not be able to straighten her waist until the moment she gives birth to her son, not to mention that after she really has a son, she is afraid that she will stand aside in the eyes of her father, if she doesn't seize the opportunity to find a bright future for herself as soon as possible, who can take care of her in the future?

Lu Jingwei didn't plan to give the Yan family this face to come to the banquet today, but he had nowhere to go-most of his colleagues and friends came to the Yan family, such a good festival, you can't be alone at home for a day, right? I can't see Aunt Xu at home, that hateful Mama Jiang locked people up tightly, so she had to come reluctantly, and when she entered the door, she was angry- That Qiao Lezi was also invited by the Yan family, and he ran into the door with him, Yan Zike's bastard only talked to the surnamed Qiao, and didn't sweep his eyes to him, it was really unreasonable!

The adults don't care what the adults think, the children don't care, five, six, seven, three chatted with Mrs. Lu for a while, and then they went to the back garden to play, and they didn't pay attention to Lu Lian when they left, in the past, Lu Lotus always had to take care of the face of the Lu family on such occasions, and it was not good to show signs of sisterly disagreement, and they had to greet Lu Lian wherever they went, and now they are also out of the way, the last time she was hurt so badly, no matter how good people are, they can't tolerate her anymore, and Lu Lian's reputation is also stinky in the girlfriend circle, even if she is ignored in public, others will not accuse her。

The back garden is bustling, a large number of young people are jumping everywhere, in the open pavilion, in the mountain pavilion, on the lake, among the flowers, everywhere is laughter, but all the way to hear the most is about the robbery incident that happened yesterday.

"I heard that it's the Cui family brothers?" Wu Yue was also asking Yan Qi, "Are they okay, right?" Cui Dashao was really ...... by the gangsters?"

"......" Yan Qi felt more and more sorry for Cui Xuan, "The two of them are fine, Cui Da is fine, they are all rumors, people can sit and walk now, squatting and splitting." ”。

Lu Rong: "......"

"Who did you say was the one who killed all the gangsters?" Wu Yue's eyes flashed with little stars, "It's really amazing! Just like the knights in the script! Come and go without a trace, I heard that the gangsters' heads have been shot out of flowers, and a few of them have even pulled out their intestines, this must be at least an eighty pound heavy bow to do it, right?!"

Yan Qi: "......"

"Hey, look who that is!" Wu Yue pulled Yan Qi, pointed forward, and saw a person in an azure lapis blue shirt standing next to a wooden hibiscus tree talking to Third Young Master Yan, but it was Xiao Chen. "Did your family invite him too?"

"Ah, the guest list prepared by the eldest aunt. "Yan Qidao.

"Your eldest aunt is well-informed enough," Wu Yue lowered his voice, "Xiao Chen's father has just mentioned directing the transfer of the servant from the local government to Beijing, and he has already put his name on your eldest aunt's list......"

"Ah Yue!" Lu Rong hurriedly whispered to stop Wu Yue, after all, Wu Yue's words were a bit sarcastic about Yan Qi's overly utilitarian meaning, and it was always not good to say this in front of Yan Qi.

Wu Yue pouted, Yan Qi's eldest aunt also knew a little bit about how Yan Qi treated Yan Qi, and she and Lu Rong knew a little, and she didn't look down on that person from the bottom of her heart, and she wouldn't give any good words between words.

As he was talking, he suddenly heard a burst of laughter from the broad stone platform erected on the shore of the lake not far away, and followed the prestige, and saw a group of men and women sitting around the platform and laughing, the most conspicuous was Yan Qi's second sister Yan Jingchun, and the second lady of the Min family, Min Xuewei, and so on.

"Why is your second sister dressed so brightly today?Is it to show her others?" Wu Yue inadvertently found the truth, "What are they doing so lively?"

"It looks like I'm writing poetry. Lu Rong saw that there was a long case of Zhang Dachang on the table, on which were placed the four treasures of the study and the sticker, and there were several pots of precious chrysanthemums in the center of the table.

"Wu Shishi is still mixed in it!" Wu Yue slapped his legs and mixed with two of the four talented women in Kyoto to play and compose poems, this is looking for abuse!

"Let's go, that's not the world we're supposed to be in. Yan Qi was about to run away with Wu Yue and Lu Lotus, and before he could take a few steps, he heard someone on the platform shouting towards this side, "Seventh sister!

It was Miss Yan Ba, who saw that Yan Qi was about to slip away, and deliberately raised her voice to greet her.

If you want to be embarrassed, everyone will lose it together, and good sisters must have poems and ugly together!

Seeing a group of people looking towards this side, Min Xuewei also smiled and nodded at Yan Qi, but it was not okay to go over, so she had to be generous and righteous, and when she returned to the party, she had to let the scumbags receive a soul baptism, which was probably the fun of the top students.

"When my family has a banquet, let's get together to have a martial arts competition!" Wu Yue Primary School scumbag complained angrily.

Yan Qi imagined the appearance of her second sister and Min Xuewei playing mantis boxing, and then she didn't dare to look at these two directly.
