Chapter 170: Family Banquet

When the two were about to leave, Mu Yanqing caught a glimpse of a fairly familiar figure, and she stood still and looked over. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"Ah Li, you see that person is..."

She froze, pulling Lu Li to point into the distance, Lu Li looked over and was stunned: "Second brother of the Gu family? ”

Sure enough, it was him...

Gu Yanhai, the second eldest member of the Gu family, treats his family very coldly, and treats outsiders even more indifferently, even coldly.

But at this moment, Gu Yanhai was accompanied by a woman who was past the age of confusion, he took good care of her, and he also had a faint smile on his face, this smile stung Mu Yanqing, for the first time in so many years, she saw something called a smile on his face.

Who is this woman?

Why did he smile so gently at her? His father and mother treated him as if he were their own, and they thought he just couldn't smile, but why did he smile at an outsider?

"I heard that the second child of the Gu family is not very cold?"

Lu Li bowed his head: "Yes, but I don't know him well, because of his cold temperament, his relationship with his family can only be said to be acceptable, not warm, but it is a little different for Uncle Gu, after all, it was Uncle Gu who saved him back then." ”

Mu Yanqing's eyes narrowed, could it be that the traitor is the second brother?

"Qing'er, let's go back to the house first, it's been so long, I'm afraid Xiang'er and Forsythia have also gone back."

Mu Yanqing nodded, but she took this matter to heart.

She didn't blindly doubt him, the second brother's indifference to others was really due to his temperament, and it was possible for that person to be right about his temperament, so he couldn't doubt him because he was willing to get close to a woman!

What's more, after returning home, she has read the account book, and the second brother is impossible.

If Xiao Luo, who keeps the accounts, has no problem, and the accounts are all true, the second brother has taken away less than ten poisonous beauties in the past six years, although this amount is a little less, but it is also within the normal range.

And the larger ones are the fourth brother Gu Yanfeng and the fifth brother Gu Yanxi in addition to the starling.

Starling has been at the border for many years, and the Xianbei people often have a small fight, and the amount is naturally larger than others, so the amount he takes is large, but it is also within the normal range, the fourth brother takes an average of eight trees a year, and the fifth brother is about nine.

Mu Yanqing sent a letter to Gu Zhun and focused on the suspects as the fourth brother, the fifth brother and Xiao Luo, but the others could not rule out the suspicion, and at the same time said the incident he had seen before, so that his father could pay attention to it.

The next day the old man entered the house, the old man was really shocked, he didn't expect that the people he met turned out to be the young master and the young lady in charge of the military marquis's mansion, and when he saw the two, he just wanted to kneel for them, and the two of them held him up.

Lu Li carefully inquired about the events of the year, and at the same time asked who the people who went back then, who came back, and what happened to those who didn't come back.

After talking about this matter, Mu Yanqing mentioned yesterday's incident as if he had not inadvertently, but it was a pity that the old man did not see the woman Gu Yanhai and they talked about, so the matter was put down.

On the day of the lunar month, the old lady said that she would hold a family banquet on the day of Laba.

said that it was a family banquet, but it was not true, because the people invited were also from the Anguo Mansion and the Han family.

Speaking of the Han family, I have to mention that Han Chong has been promoted, and now he is a bachelor of waiting, from the fifth grade.

Although the official rank has only been upgraded by one level, this right is different, the waiter is a close minister of the emperor, and the waiter is not. Han Chong is also a smart and knowledgeable person, and now that he has the opportunity to get close to the emperor, are you still afraid that he will not be promoted?

Han Fei relied on her brother's recent high-profile life, and always wanted to come to Mu Yanqing for trouble, but Mu Yanqing and Lu Li rarely went out of the yard, even if they went out occasionally, when she learned the news and rushed over, they would go back early!

At this time, hearing that he was going to hold a family banquet in Laba, Han Fei's mind began to turn.

She came to Qingyun Courtyard to find the Huang family and wanted her to help come up with an idea.

Huang originally thought about it, why didn't Han Fei move, and even sent a letter back to ask Huang Rui what to do next, but Huang Rui's answer was only one word, wait.

"Why are the third brothers and sisters so free today?"

Han Fei glanced at the sewing basket on the table, and sneered at the embroidery inside,

"It's just idle to see what my sister-in-law is doing..."

The two said a few words casually, and Han Fei brought the topic to this Laba family banquet.

When Huang heard Han Fei mention the family banquet, she remembered the letterhead she received today, her face suddenly turned bad, she didn't expect him to hit this idea, hum, Duchess Anguo, the good son you educated is just this kind of goods!

Thinking of what he had suffered under the Duchess of Anguo, the Huang family hated this mother-in-law from the bottom of his heart.

Hate to hate, she also knows the situation of her husband's family, Lu Yun has no ability, her father-in-law Lu Congping's ability is also very mediocre, if she wants Lu Congping to sit on the prince of the Hou Mansion, and even the head of the Hou Mansion, she still needs the help of her mother's family.

"Speaking of which, it's really good to hold a family banquet, and I don't know how the second brother in the second room is going to invite the second brother and sister's mother's family, so you can't really invite the head of the prayer pavilion, right? What a shame that is! ”

After saying this, Huang stopped suddenly, "Look at my memory, the second brother and sister are also surnamed Han, even if she doesn't recognize that blood is thicker than water, speaking of which, our concubines are three, but there are only two in my mother's family, and I always forget it!" ”

Han Fei originally had a smile on his face, but when he heard this again, he immediately pulled it down: "Sister-in-law! ”

Huang covered his mouth: "Look at me, this is not a long memory, how can she be worthy of being a maiden family with her younger siblings!" ”

Han Fei's face improved slightly when she heard this, "Hmph, family banquet... I want her to know exactly what will happen to me if I offend me! ”

A hint of gloom flashed across her face, damn slut, you hurt my child, you once hurt my sister-in-law's child, look how I make you childless in your life!

Huang glanced at Han Fei, who was just a spoiled child, who was ruthless but had no brains, and couldn't get things done.

Why don't you help her?

"By the way, brother and sister, I recently got a good new thing."

She turned around and glanced at her newly brought maid Cui'er, who quickly brought the pastry, "Brother and sister try it, I let people add things to the pastry as a seasoning, so that the amount of food is small and the taste is also improved." ”

"What's that?" After Han Fei ate the pastry, her eyes lit up, it was really delicious!

A smile flashed in Huang's eyes, "My younger brother sent it to me, saying that it was wool cottonseed oil, and he specially told me to let me use millet flour or bean flour to make pastries before eating!" ”

Han Fei was puzzled, "Why?" Is there anything left to say? (To be continued.) )
