This Mrs. Situ walked all the way to the back door of the front hall, and saw that the banquet inside was not dispersed, so it was not easy to enter. When the little third son who was guarding the door saw her, he hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "Mrs. is here, but you have something to pass on to the Hou Ye?" Mrs. Situ first asked, "How long will it take for the banquet inside to disperse?" The little third son said: "It's going to be a long time before the soup pot is served, and the scattered snacks haven't been served yet." Mrs. Situ waited impatiently, so she said, "You go in, invite Master Hou to Jiaolu Pavilion, and just say that I have something to discuss with him." How dare the little third son go in to disturb, and said with a smile: "Mrs., this is embarrassing, the Hou Ye ordered early in the morning, and all the guests invited today are important guests, and no one is allowed to go in to disturb." ”

Mrs. Situ glared at him and reprimanded him: "I don't care about you, I have something important to discuss with the Hou Ye." If I'm mistaken, I'll only settle the account on you, little monkey cub! After that, he didn't allow the little third son to defend himself, so he withdrew.

The little third son couldn't, and he knew that the marquis was afraid of himself, so he might not be embarrassed by him if he moved in and out of his wife. At that moment, he gritted his teeth and pushed the door to the hall.

This Ciyong Hall is divided into two for the door of the moon cave, and the outside is the place where the guests feast, and the inside is placed with a white jade screen inlaid with mahogany snails for the eight immortals crossing the sea, which is separated from the outside. Situ Zhong set up a banquet here to entertain some important close friends.

Everyone in the inner hall was discussing in a low voice, and suddenly saw the little servant of the Hou Mansion break in, and they couldn't help but be stunned and silenced.

Situ Zhong was very annoyed and scolded him: "The thief is not a slave who is good to die, who allowed you to come in?!" The little third son cried with a sad face, came up and whispered in his ear: "Mrs. invited the master to the Jiaolu Pavilion for a while, saying that there is something urgent to discuss with the master." He also said that if something happened by mistake, he would peel off the small skin, and the small one would not dare not pass it on. Situ Zhong heard that it was a delicate wife, but he didn't dare to slack off, and when he muttered for a while, he said to everyone at the table: "There is something at home, and I am invited to come over to discuss." Ladies and gentlemen, let's have some food and drink here, and wait a while. ”

The person who was familiar with the internal affairs of his family said: "The marquis's family affairs are important, please take care of yourself." ”

Situ Zhong bowed his hand, got off the table, and hurried to the Jiaolu Pavilion.

The Jiaolu Pavilion was built on the edge of a reed, hence the name.

Situ Zhong walked outside the Xuan Pavilion and walked inside, only to see his wife Ying Fanghua sitting in the hall, sighed lightly, and said: "After listening to the words of the little girl, I still have something to do with you, leaving the full house of guests and running in a hurry, it turns out that you are so dignified." Ying Fanghua rolled her eyes, stared at him and said, "I'm fine, can't I talk to you?" "In the early years of this Situ Zhong, he had failed his wife, and since then, he has never been able to raise his head in front of this lady. When I heard this, I was not annoyed, but smiled and said, "How can I say this? It's just that I left a full house of guests, but I, the host, ran out, and it was too much to say. Ying Fanghua snorted in her nose and said, "There are too many things that you can't say, and you're afraid of people laughing at this time?" Saying that, in the end, he still respects him as the head of the family, and he no longer talks to him, but only asks: "Let me ask you, among the guests who came today, is there a man named Lu Chengyong?" ”

Situ Zhong was slightly stunned, then nodded and said, "There is indeed this person, and he is a Zhonglang general who has just been promoted." I fancy that he has a very good future and want to make friends with him, so I have invited him with a post today. It's just that there are a lot of guests here today, and I haven't finished talking about him, and I haven't taken him into account. Madame asked him what he was doing for no reason? Ying Fanghua smiled and said: "I remember that Yanran was in distress on the road last time, and she was rescued by this person?" When Situ Zhong heard this, he couldn't help but look up at her, and said, "It's this person who is hard for him to be enthusiastic and willing to help." The next day, I sent someone to send a thank-you gift, and it was also a thank-you gift. ”

Ying Fanghua smiled and said: "This person is not related to us, and he can take this risk to save our daughter, which shows that his character is square, and he has some fate with our daughter." This is really called the red rope falling from the sky, just like you and I met at the beginning. Our daughter is also at the age of pro-family, and there has never been a suitable candidate. I think this man is very good, so it is better to settle on him. When Situ Zhong heard this, he jumped up violently and shouted: "I said what you called me from the table today, it turned out that you came to be a lobbyist for Yanran." A few days ago, she made trouble, and I called you to discipline your daughter. That's how you discipline? It's not just Yanran who refuses to obey, but you are persuaded to go! What kind of person is this Lu Chengyong, the son of a broken family, he is a master bookkeeper, and he is not worthy of carrying our shoes. He also saw a lady from a merchant at home, how can such a family be worthy of our daughter?! ”。
