Chapter 258: Shame
In fact, Shen Zhaolin's friend was really not sarcastic about him.
This is a straightforward and fast-talking person, and he doesn't know much about the things between Shen Zhaolin and Shen Xi, so he really thinks that Shen Zhaolin is quite blessed to have such a son who will worry about him.
I really envy Shen Zhaolin.
It was precisely because of this that Shen Zhaolin felt even more embarrassed.
What the truth is, he couldn't be clearer in his heart, his son is not a person who is filial to his father, he will send invitations and book flowing water banquets, and he is not really happy for him at all, but he just wants more people to come to see his jokes.
Thinking that he had such a son, Shen Zhaolin couldn't wait to go back to more than ten years ago, so that Shen Xi didn't have a chance to come to this world at all!
It can only be said that once there is a dislike between the father and son, they hate each other far more than those enemies.
Shen Xi and Shen Zhaolin, that's it now.
Collecting all these hatreds in his heart, Shen Zhaolin could faintly taste the sweet taste of blood in his mouth, so that he could finally smile at this friend who was looking at him with a kind of "you are really blessed".
Now that the guests are already full, whether it is the Chengguo Mansion or Shen Zhaolin, they can't afford to lose this face and drive all the guests out, let alone say that they don't plan to do a happy event at all.
If they really want to say it, people ask why, is it difficult for them to say that it was because Shen Zhaolin was forced by the holy decree that he had to marry such a non-facetable outer room as his wife, and they felt ashamed, so they hated to have to let outsiders know about it?
Of course not.
Therefore, even though Shen Zhaolin was about to be angry and dead at this moment, he still had to smile at the endless stream of guests again and again.
This feeling......
Probably only Shen Zhaolin himself knows.
The male guests were received by the gentlemen of the Chengguo Mansion, and the female relatives were received by several ladies headed by the Duchess of Chengguo, Wang.
The daughters of the Xu family were led into the door by Xu Huizhen.
When she was at the door, there were many people, and Xu Huizhen didn't say anything to the old lady and others, and when she walked to a place where there were few people, Xu Huizhen held the old lady with one hand, and she couldn't help complaining.
“…… I was still thinking about being embarrassed, I just wanted to do it quietly, but I didn't expect Brother Xi to come up with such a damaging idea......"
Xu Huizhen couldn't laugh or cry when she said this.
Of course, she has always stood on the side of the county lord of Anyang and Shen Xi, so although Shen Xi's actions have also brought her some trouble, Xu Huizhen has no complaints.
If she was Shen Xi, she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to endure it like this.
The old lady couldn't help laughing when she heard this, and then talked to Xu Huizhen about the last time Shen Xi personally came to deliver the invitation, "...... It's a shame that this kid was able to come up with such a method, and I was dumbfounded when I heard it......"
In the end, the old lady sighed a little emotionally, "Where are they like two fathers and sons, but like enemies." ”
Xu Huizhen also nodded.
Isn't it?
"My mother-in-law was not happy because of the third uncle's marriage, and I thought that it would be okay to do it quietly today, at most I wouldn't let her come out and walk around in the future, so I thought that there would be so many guests in the house, and I was so angry that I almost fainted, and now I am still crooked in Shou'an Hall......"
"Sister-in-law can't help it, she is now the head of the Guogong Mansion, since the guests have already arrived, you can't drive people back, right? I can only rush the ducks to the shelves and arrange people to entertain guests, and now they are all busy. ”
Xu Huizhen said this, but she was a little disdainful.
After the holy decree came down, the Wang family still had the idea of getting along with the outer room, and they were naturally very "enthusiastic" to help entertain the guests at this time.
Xu Huizhen didn't want to get involved in that mess in the first place, so she avoided it by leading the old lady into the house at this time.
As they spoke, they saw that the table had already begun to be set up in the inner house, and they were just waiting for the scheduled feast to be delivered.
Xu Huizhen saw the maids who were cleaning up the table, but she was a little emotional, "Speaking of which, Brother Xi still has some leeway, if he only sent an invitation and didn't book a banquet, I really don't know what kind of face the Guogong Mansion will lose." ”
The wedding banquet is very particular, and I really have to hurry to book the wedding banquet today, but I am afraid that there is no restaurant in the capital that can take this job.
When the time comes, so many guests will sit stupidly in the Chengguo Mansion, and everyone will stare at each other together, and it is enough to think about that scene.
When Xu Yu heard this, he raised his eyes and glanced at Xu Huizhen.
Shen Xi not only booked a banquet for the Chengguo Mansion, but also ordered another 300 tables of flowing water banquet to invite the people of the city, I heard that this flowing water banquet will be set for three days and three nights?
Well, of course, when ordering a banquet, Shen Xi reported the name of the Chengguo Mansion, and when the time came, someone would go to the Chengguo Mansion to collect the account.
Tut, think about it, when the people of the whole city eat the flowing water feast, they will remember that the third master of the Chengguo Mansion married a wife of that background, and celebrated it vigorously, thinking that it must be very lively.
So......
Whether Shen Xi has any room to leave is probably only known to him.
As soon as he spoke, everyone had already arrived at the five-room Yiya Hall.
Anyway, it was still early before the banquet began, and Xu Huizhen didn't want to go back to entertain the guests, so she simply led the old lady and others back to Yiya Hall to talk well.
The old lady was still a little worried, "...... Your mother-in-law won't pick on you, will she? ”
Xu Huizhen shook her head, "Mother, don't worry, don't say that the mother-in-law is still resting in Shou'an Hall, but no, this person is troubled today, where can she take care of me here, besides, it is the mother-in-law, and she also hates the person married by the third uncle." ”
Mrs. Wei of the Chengguo Mansion is from a famous family, so she is naturally a very disciplined person, and Shen Zhaolin is her sister-in-law, how can she bear that her son would marry such a woman?
But there is a holy purpose first, and even if Wei is unwilling, he can only suppress it and not mention it.
Whether he was stunned today, or whether he didn't want to see that woman at all, only Wei himself knows.
Hearing Xu Huizhen say this, the old lady was also relieved.
Speaking from her heart, the old lady was not happy that Xu Huizhen was busy for such a woman to enter the door.
Yiyatang is far away from the outside, although there are a lot of people coming and going in Chengguo's Mansion today, but it can be regarded as clean, everyone is talking and laughing in Yiyatang, and time flies very quickly.
