Chapter 62

It's a pity that the filial piety of the cheap son and daughter-in-law, Shi Feier is unwilling to bear it. Shi Fei'er was going crazy at the thought of sitting and laughing and listening to three plays slowly. If you listen to some tunes and sing, you really don't like listening to the play. It's not that Shi Fei'er hasn't heard of the play since she crossed over, and it was quite fresh at first, but after listening to a few plays, I felt that the rhythm was too slow, and I really couldn't appreciate it. When I go out to a banquet, I often invite you to listen to the play, as long as the gongs and drums sound, Shi Feier can't sit still, upset, and can't say that the troupe doesn't sing well, but it's really not her own dish. Besides, this Jia's mother's birthday is not her birthday, so she feels weird.

But he couldn't arouse everyone's interest, so he turned a blind eye and let it go. The son and daughter-in-law came to ask the old lady at the birthday banquet if she had any special dishes she wanted to eat, and Shi Feier didn't know if she blurted out that she wanted to eat birthday cake at that time. As soon as the words came out, Shi Fei'er immediately went back to make up for it, explaining that this birthday cake was a birthday cake, and her mother made it for herself when she was a child, and she dreamed of her old mother these days, so she remembered it, and Shi Fei'er said that she just said it casually, so that they didn't have to care.

But since the old lady opened her mouth, Jia Yu didn't care, thinking that the chef who came with the birthday cake historian should be able to, but after giving an order, the cook trembled and replied that he had never heard of this thing and would not do it. Jia Yu thought about it, this birthday cake should be the private snack of the old lady of the Shi family, so the cook will not. However, this did not extinguish Jia Yu's desire to make this birthday cake, so he discussed it with his wife. Since no one in the house had ever seen this cake, Mrs. Zhang carefully led the words to the cake every day, asking about the style and taste of the cake. Shi Fei'er missed her mouth last time, so she was even more careful this time. Although I knew what Mrs. Zhang meant, I made it up casually and perfunctory.

On Jia's mother's birthday, there was a lot of joy in the house, although it was just a family banquet, but there were many people who came to celebrate her birthday. Several tables were set up in this inner hall for the family, and a banquet was set up outside. It's quite lively for a family to get together. The dishes were served one after another, and everyone was curious about the dishes that were in the middle of the table but were still covered after being served. The dish was placed in a silver bowl with a copper partition on it, and it was quite high, and everyone did not know what it meant.

Shi Fei'er looked at Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Wang, who were standing beside her, and asked, "This dish is a little interesting, why is it still covered on the table?"

Mrs. Zhang said: "The old lady is gracious, the old man wanted to find a birthday cake for his mother because the old lady mentioned the birthday cake, but he didn't get it several times. This is also the daughter-in-law who heard the old lady mention the taste style, and she speculated on it, and finally got a look after a few attempts. Today, because it was a family feast, the daughter-in-law brought it out to offer ugliness. I don't know if what I made can meet the old lady's heart. ”

Shi Fei'er was even more curious when she heard this, you must know that the flavors and styles of birthday cakes are all made up by herself and perfunctory. Who would have thought that people would actually make it. Shi Fei'er was a little looking forward to what this birthday cake that mixed sweet, sour, bitter, spicy, salty, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, blue, and purple would look like.

Mrs. Zhang ordered someone to cover it up, and everyone gathered to look at the silver cup, and when she opened it, everyone showed a little disappointment on their faces, and there was no difference between this and the longevity peach on weekdays. If you want to barely say that there is any difference, it is probably that this longevity peach is more delicate. Mrs. Zhang didn't care when she saw it, and ordered someone to cut the cake, and when she opened it, everyone was shocked. There are seven layers in this cake, which is actually a rainbow of red, orange, yellow, green, purple, and a boiled egg in the middle. Mrs. Zhang ordered someone to cut a piece and dedicated it to Jia's mother: "The old lady said that the beauty of this cake is that it can mix the colors of life with the five flavors of life, and the taste is self-satisfied, I don't know if the daughter-in-law is doing it right or not? ”

Shi Fei'er took a bite, this taste is delicate, the five flavors overlap, it is really chic. I didn't expect that what I was talking about would be made. Shi Fei'er regretted it a little, if she knew this, she might as well tell people the style and taste of the birthday cake, maybe it was made. Nodding and smiling, he said, "It's a taste of reunion after a long absence." You're putting your heart into it. ”

Mrs. Zhang was also happy when she heard Jia's mother's praise, and she was busy ordering someone to cut the cake and taste it with everyone. After everyone ate it, they were amazed. Shi Fei'er looked at the boiled egg in the cake and was puzzled, and asked, "What does this egg mean?"

Mrs. Zhang said with a smile: "The master said that since it is called birthday cake, how can there be no eggs." There must be eggs in this cake, and the daughter-in-law couldn't resist the master, so she added it. When they heard this, they laughed.

After the banquet, it is time to listen to the play. Shi Fei'er really doesn't like to listen to dramas, so she listened to two plays patiently, and after two rewards, she deduced that she was not strong enough to drink, and she wanted to take a nap, because they were all relatives of her family, she was naturally exempted from a lot of courtesy, and everyone was also sympathetic to Jia's mother's age, and she was not forced to stay, Shi Fei'er finally felt at ease, and she couldn't hear the sound of gongs and drums, but she was a lot more comfortable. After returning to the house, I calmed down a little, and before I had a sip of tea, the maid came to report that the eldest master had arrived. Shi Fei'er sighed, she just wanted to rest, but she couldn't, so she asked the maid to invite Jia Yu in.

"Old lady, why did you come back so early. Don't go to listen to a few more plays?, or is this troupe not singing well?" Jia Yu asked.

"It's not uncommon for people to be mentally poor when they're old. They're singing well, I'll rest for a while, and I'll go later. Shi Feier explained.

When Jia Yu heard this, he hesitated a little, Shi Fei'er saw it in his eyes and asked, "If you have something to say, just say it." ”

"The loyal prince arrived, saying that he wanted to congratulate the old lady on her birthday. Jia Yu said.

"Then how can I make an old woman dare to alarm the prince to congratulate him on his birthday. Shi Fei'er's original sleepiness was swept away, and today's birthday seems to be endless. Although Shi Fei'er was worried about this in her heart, she still didn't believe that this loyal king would come to congratulate her on his birthday.

"Did the old lady see it?" Jia Yu asked in a low voice. Jia Yu didn't think as much as Shi Fei'er, he originally thought it was a joke from the prince, but he didn't take it seriously, but today he saw King Zhongjing personally congratulate him on his birthday, so he naturally didn't dare to slack off. The prince also said that there was a congratulatory gift to be presented in person, so Jia Yu had to come to invite Jia's mother.

"Naturally, I want to see you, please go to Rongxi Hall, I'll be there later. You go to socialize with the prince first, so that you can be entertained. Shi Fei'er felt that it didn't matter now, anyway, the matter was already over, since people had already found a special excuse to come to the door, they couldn't kick people out, right? Shi Fei'er ordered the maid to change her clothes, clean up, and then slowly went to Rongxi Hall.

"Old birthday star, today's birthday, this king is here to congratulate you on your birthday. I wish you good fortune such as the East China Sea Shoubi Nanshan. When the loyal prince saw Jia's mother, he gave a salute first, and when Shi Fei'er saw it, he hurriedly avoided the salute and said: "The old body is getting older, where do you dare to bother the prince to celebrate his birthday, thank you to the prince this time." ”

The loyal prince smiled and said: "Old Shouxing, don't you know that I didn't know anything about my reading in the past, and I also asked Rong Guogong for advice, and I also thank Rong Guogong for his teaching. The ancients were still teachers, and Rong Guogong was naturally my master, and he should congratulate his wife on her birthday today. ”

Shi Fei'er laughed secretly in her heart, this prince is not very old, but he is quite good at making up, this Jia Daishan has also instructed the loyal prince to read? However, Jia Daishan has already done the past, and he can't verify it, and even if he can, he can't do it! If you can see the above today, it is estimated that you should give the truth, otherwise what are you doing with all that energy.

The loyal prince took a step closer and said: "The congratulatory gifts on this side are all written on the gift list, and only one congratulatory gift is also invited to the old birthday star to accept with a smile." After speaking, a person behind him approached with a small box, King Zhongjing personally opened it, took out the contents of the box, and handed it forward, Shi Fei'er nodded, looked at Jia Yu, Jia Yu saw Jia's mother signaling to take it over, and when he pinched the thing in his hand, Jia Yu looked familiar, isn't this his own fan that was taken away by the loyal prince. Jia Yu was stunned for a moment, looked at Jia's mother, and then looked at King Zhongjing.

Shi Fei'er saw that Jia Yu's expression changed, and she was also a little suspicious, and then looked at Jia Yu's hand, and saw that it was a fan, and she was even more puzzled, and the loyal king didn't say much, and also looked at the fan in Jia Yu's hand. When Jia Yu saw it, he was not angry, so he took the fan and sent it back with a congratulatory gift.

Shi Fei'er glanced at the fan, and the three words on the book were mediocre, and Shi Fei'er felt strange how this word looked like it was from Jia Yu's hand. Shi Fei'er was puzzled, glanced at Jia Yu and then looked at the loyal king, Jia Yu was not angry and turned over the fan again, and there were three words on the fan, greedy. At this time, King Zhongjing looked at Jia Mu and said, "I don't know the old birthday star, is my solution right?"

Shi Fei'er naturally saw the words on the face, and had to admit that this loyal king was indeed smart, and this word was also beautifully written. It's really good to break greed and give up desires, and it is really good to be able to solve it like this without knowing the antecedents. Shi Fei'er nodded and praised: "The word prince is a hundred times stronger than Yu'er, and his understanding is also good." ”

Jia Yu held the fan and pouted. Although he also admits that this prince's words are much stronger than his own, he is still a little sour in his heart when Jia Mu says it so directly.

King Zhongjing smiled and said: "Lao Shou praised it, I have heard that Mrs. Jia is a decisive, and it is better to meet when I see it today." King Zhongjing paused and said: "There is another thing I also want to ask the old birthday star, this is easy to write and easy to write, but it is not easy to do." The loyal king looked at Jia's mother and said: "Old Mrs. Jia has this feeling, I don't know why I got it? Old Mrs. Jia is in the noble house, I don't know if there is something to use this renunciation today, whether the old lady is still willing to give up." ”

Shi Fei'er smiled when she heard this, and secretly thought that she had laid the groundwork so much, and finally got to the point. Anyway, I can guess a few points of your intentions this time, if you forcibly take it, I can't say a word, after all, now one of the twelve hairpins has not yet been born, if the Jia family falls at this time, it will be even more difficult in the future. There is a knife on the head of the word tolerable, and it is very unpleasant to be talked about openly and secretly. Shi Fei'er said: "It's all old things, not enough to worry about." However, the prince asked if this renunciation was still used today, and he couldn't help but answer directly, whether it is used or not, it also depends on whether it is worth it. Lord, do you think what I said is right?"
