The next day, it was a small banquet in Mrs. Xu's courtyard.

The place is located in the flower hall.

Mrs. Xu is naturally the lord.

The first row on the left sits Jin Dee Yu, Wang Sining and Zeng Yuan.

The last place reserved a seat for Gu Xie Wu.

As for the eight new arrivals, they are ranked high and low in terms of family status.

On the right, there are three seats in the front and five in the back.

The first place is naturally Xue Muru.

followed by Li Xun, Jiang Han, Cai Ji, Fan Shuangyi, Ren Yiyi, Xia Shuang, and Han Xue.

Everyone had already heard of the name of Ying Xintang's concubine, so they guessed that it was a place reserved for her, and they were very unhappy in their hearts.

After all, there is a difference between dignity and inferiority.

Although there is no master mother in this Qin Palace, a concubine is actually on an equal footing with the seven-rank ruven people canonized by the imperial court, which really makes these girls from noble backgrounds a little unacceptable.

In addition, everyone has arrived, but Gu Xie Wu has not yet arrived.

Jiang Han's father is the official of Yushitai, and his temperament is very upright, and he said unceremoniously: "I heard that this Yingxintang is the favorite concubine of the prince, but she was spoiled by the prince, and even let us people with good rank wait for her, she was really born as a concubine and did not understand etiquette." ”

Jin Dee Yu looked at Jiang Han and smiled, there was no way, she couldn't hold it back.

Wang Sining saw her lose her temper, and hurriedly covered her face with a fan, and whispered: "What are you doing, let her go!"

Li Xun looked at it and was silent, but his back became more and more straight.

Xue Muru couldn't see anything, so he sat in a regular manner.

Xu Chaoyun didn't hear it. Ying Xintang's side was already going to Xu Chaoyun's side.

Although Xu Chaoyun hated her in his heart, he had done enough work on his face, and since he made her kneel for a long time that time, he had never done anything excessive.

At this time, the prince was no longer in the house, and Xu Chaoyun just wanted to stand up in front of the newcomers, just like the three fires of the new official.

There's no reason for her to go toe-to-toe with her.

The bento made the door to play.

Halfway down, she was caught up by Xuan Su, saying that the prince had sent the little eunuch around her to come back to ask her something, and she was waiting in Yingxintang at the moment.

Because she came back privately, she didn't wear a eunuch's uniform, and she didn't dare to run around in the garden anymore, so she had to go back again.

Xu Chaoyun was also a little impatient to wait, and Ding Xiang had just met the little maid sent by Chunmei to spread the word outside.

The two communicated in the ear room of the flower hall.

It was the first time for Wan Qing to enter Xu Chaoyun's courtyard, she was a little scared, and her voice trembled a little: "Sister Chunmei said that when she saw the appearance of the eunuch, she was afraid that there was something important, so let the slave and maid come over and say it, so as not to make Mrs. Xu anxious." ”

Lilac thought to herself what could be done, nothing more than ...... These things shouldn't be what she thinks, so she doesn't want to.

It's just that this Mrs. Gu is also a little special, the eight beauties who have arrived in the prince don't ask a word, and I don't know what they will think if they know that the prince sent someone back and only went to Mrs. Gu's side, I'm afraid they will cry and faint in their own room.

Lilac's face was very polite, and with a gentle smile, she went back and went to the flower hall to report.

He bowed his head in Xu Chaoyun's ear and said.

It would be a lie to say that Xu Chaoyun was not in a hurry or angry, but she also laughed heartily and said to everyone below: "Let's have a banquet! Sister Gu is afraid that it will take a long time to come over, and the prince will send someone back to spread the word, this time she is talking in Yingxin Hall, and she will not be able to come for a while." ”

The three of Jindee Jade are accustomed to seeing them, and there is no turmoil in their hearts.

There were eight newcomers, and their faces were red and white.

Rao is Li Xun's self-cultivation, and he doesn't feel that he is holding back a breath in his heart.

The prince didn't wait for them to enter the door and left, and he didn't say a word when he sent someone back.

Jin Dee Yu knew their thoughts, but the prince was a kind person, and he didn't think of them at this time, and there would be no surprises when he waited for the meeting.

As if inadvertently, he said to Wang Sining: "Look at our prince, I am reluctant to take care of my sister when I go out for two or three days, but it may also be for people to come back to see your new sisters, maybe I will come here later." ”

Xu Chaoyun continued: "Not necessarily, Ying Xintang said that the little eunuch didn't even change his eunuch clothes, so he didn't dare to walk around the garden anymore, so he let Sister Gu go back halfway through."

said that he was busy talking back to the prince!"

Wang Sining continued: "I don't know if Sister Gu can stand this day, she is a sweaty body on weekdays, and she used ice at the beginning of May. ”

Xu Chaoyun's complexion is not good-looking now, this small banquet is for Gu Xie to dance and stand up.

Thinking about it again, if she really has a good one, it is not counted on her as the head of the family.

Then he said to Haitang: "Hurry up and order the following to prepare iced sour plum soup, and then take two ice basins and put them next to her seat, so that people can pass the word, just say that the sun is big at noon, let her not patronize the rules, it is okay to sit on the chariot, and turn around to get sick with fever, which makes the prince worry in vain." ”

Begonia took the order. This is good, except for Jin Dee Yu and the others in the hall, all of them are blue.

At first, I thought it was stuffy when there were many people in this room, but now I don't feel hot anymore.

Feel cold.

The heart is cold.

Gu Xie Wu had finished half of the banquet, and it was too late, and the little eunuch hurried back to reply.

She was also puzzled in her heart, how could the prince send someone back to ask her if she wanted to eat snacks from Sankeng Town, it is said that a small shop produces a kind of dim sum called donkey rolling, if you want to eat it, he will send someone to pack it in an ice box tomorrow and send it back.

The little eunuch today is also strange, and has been asking some inappropriate gossip, sleeping well and eating well.

It's like dragging her back.

Seeing that the sun was in the middle of the sky, he knelt down as if relieved.

She had to eat a bowl of mung bean soup to press her stomach, and hurried to the banquet.

When she got outside, she knew that there was a chariot waiting, and she went up unceremoniously, she was already afraid of the heat, and she felt dizzy just by standing outside. Before she came, she changed into a lighter gauze dress, and also took off the shawl, and wore only a skirt.

He has a double bun on his head, and only two plain jade hairpin jewelry are worn on his body, which looks very shabby at a glance. It is very inconsistent with her pampered and proud identity.

Rao is so simple and light, and when he arrives at the banquet, he can also see sweat stains on his face.

Ronghua supported her, for fear that she would be stunned by the heat.

The day before yesterday, she was playful, and went to the garden to swing in the afternoon, and she had a fever at night.

Fortunately, Mulian at the medical hall would come to ask for peace every day, and she drank a dose of medicine.

Xu Chaoyun knew that she was not a pretending person, and she was even more afraid that she would faint at the banquet today, so she hurriedly stopped her from saluting and said, "I thought I would let you meet your sisters, but I didn't expect you to be tired." I haven't seen him for a few days, but I'm emaciated. ”

Gu Xie Wu sat on the seat, wiped his palms with the ice handkerchief handed over by Chunmei, and replied glutinously: "How can you say that you are tired when you come here, it's just that it's getting hotter and hotter these days, and I can't eat to lose weight." ”

Xu Chaoyun nodded, indicating that he understood.

You're thin because you're not angry.

Jin Dee Yu said with three points of concern and seven points of concern: "You also have to take care, there is still half a year before the prince comes back, and it is the hottest weather, and when I come back to see you like this, I will think that someone in the house is bullying you." ”

Wan Qinghong next to her was already fanning her with a small fan, and she also took the fan given by Wang Sining in her own hand.

said: "My sisters treat me very well, the prince knows." I don't have a good body, and I can't blame anyone. ”

Jin Dee Yu said while fanning the fan: "The prince knows how well the sisters treat you, but the prince doesn't know if the sisters treat you well." Knowing that today's banquet will make people come back to see you, it can be seen that I am afraid that you will be wronged. ”

The newcomers on the other side have turned red.

According to the etiquette system, Gu Xie Wu wanted to salute them, but this Mrs. Xu was exempted from her ceremony, so they naturally didn't dare to say anything.

Jiang Han, who was still thinking about giving Gu Xie Wu some color at the beginning, was also silent, if she embarrassed Gu Xie Wu today, making King Qin resentful of her, it would be more than worth the loss.

Therefore, even if Gu Xie Wu directly ignored them as soon as they entered the room, they could only pretend not to know.

The dishes at the banquet were all the best, but Xu Chaoyun saw that Gu Jiewu's appearance was really weak, and he was afraid that she would not be able to restrain herself, so he asked Haitang to take what she liked to eat on weekdays.

The kitchen knew that there was a banquet today, and it should not prepare other dishes.

But Chunmei came over at the time of the morning meal and ordered them to prepare a pot of thick white porridge, accompanied by freshly made kimchi pickles and fried lotus root. I'm afraid she's tired of eating at the banquet.

At the end of June, the lotus root is only ripe, and it is only the size of a sugar cane.

This lotus root ...... It was Gu Xie Wu who made people dig in the garden pond.

The people in the kitchen never expected that this master would let them go to the garden to find ingredients, and they would be drunk when they thought about it.

As soon as he picked it up, he successfully won everyone's attention.

The way they looked at it, turned their heads and looked at it again, they were embarrassed to eat it.

The little eunuch returned to the post house where King Qin stayed in Sankeng Town at dusk, and returned to Gu Jiewu to dig out the lotus root in the garden pond and fry it to eat.

King Qin was drinking tea with a sea bowl at that time.

I didn't hold back my breath and sprayed the little eunuch's whole face. The little eunuch was thrown out with a reward of silver, and standing outside the door, he could occasionally hear the sound of "hehe" coming from inside. I put it on my ears again, and it was gone.

He felt he must have misheard.

But this back and forth got a silver reward in one day, and it was in vain that his ass was about to be turned upside down by the carriage, and it was worth it.

A small banquet is also a banquet.

After lunch, there were Kabuki musicians singing and dancing, and in the afternoon, they called the troupe to sing and listen.

This Liangzhou has its own plays, but it is ridiculous and can't listen to it, and the plays in the house are all trained by the Jingli Nanfu Opera Troupe, which is very authentic.

It is divided into Peking Opera Class and Kunqu Opera Class.

One person orders and one out, which is enough to watch for an afternoon.

This time, the show girls who came to Beijing ordered Peking Opera, and Xu Chaoyun and they also watched Peking Opera before, but they found out from Gu Jiewu that the prince actually likes Kunqu Opera.

They all listened to Kunqu Opera instead, lest the prince was sometimes willing to tell them this, but they couldn't answer it because they hadn't heard it.

The new show girls all know that Wang Ye and Xu Chaoyun were both born in Beijing, but why do they like Kunqu Opera so much?

After listening to the play, everyone had dinner together, and after that, the banquet ended.
