Chapter 6: The Birthday Banquet (I)
Today's Lu Mansion is very festive, the vermilion door is open, the flowers are full of jewels, the antique calligraphy and painting are dazzling, the place that enters the eye is mainly red, and the big longevity character is hung on the lobby, and you can glimpse it from afar.
As one of the four major families, the Lu family can be regarded as a big family, and they naturally have a wide range of contacts. Early in the morning, many businessmen and nobles came to congratulate today's birthday star Lu Yuansheng, and sent their congratulatory gifts to express their friendship, among which there are many rare and exotic treasures, after all, if you have a good relationship with the Lu family, life will not be too bad.
"Miss Qing Li has arrived!" An announcement sounded, interrupting the lively conversation, and everyone showed curious expressions on their faces.
This young lady of the Qing family is already the concubine designated by the Holy Lord, and she rarely shows up, but now that she appears, she naturally immediately becomes the focus of everyone.
I saw a pure black carriage in front of me slowly stopped, the carriage had no extra decoration, only the curtain cloth curtain was embroidered with some patterns with gold wire, simple but atmospheric, the horse pulling the carriage had four strong hooves, the coat color was shiny, and it was a good horse that traveled thousands of miles a day.
Even the carriage was so extraordinary, which aroused everyone's curiosity about Miss Qing, and they raised their eyes and stretched their necks.
I saw a handsome woman in Tsing Yi getting down from the carriage, her slightly immature little face was fresh and lovely, and she was also a beauty if she was Chang Kaiding, but she looked only fifteen or sixteen years old, and her age didn't seem to be right.
It should be a maid! Everyone speculated in their hearts that even the maid looked so standard, so how beautiful and delicious should the master be?
An Ning held the brocade box in her hand, opened the curtain slightly, and a woman wearing a goose yellow skirt fluttered down from the car. In an instant, the noisy sound of Qiē was all annihilated, and everyone only felt that their breath was stagnant, and their eyes were locked on the woman with a peerless face, and they gasped.
The girl's black hair is like a waterfall, her head is like a moth eyebrow, her skin is like condensed fat, her lips are like cinnabar, her beautiful eyes are gentle and clear, and she looks forward to it. The goose yellow skirt is called her whole body is warm, her delicate figure is fully revealed, ice muscles and jade bones, and her body is light, which is not only like a bright Qionghua blooming alone, but also like a pearl of the nine heavens.
It seems that all the beautiful words are not exaggerated for this person, but the most wonderful thing is more than that, with a light smile on the corner of her mouth, elegant and gentle, well-behaved, clear and soft in her eyes, that kind of style, I am afraid that few people in the world can match.
Qing Li looked at those stunned people and sighed secretly. This skin is too raw, which is why she often goes out in men's clothes, and today she has to do it, hoping that it will not cause any negative effects.
"Grandpa is not at home, so Qing Li will congratulate him on his birthday, congratulating Master Lu on his health and blessings!" Qing Li smiled and gave a salute and said lightly.
After all, Lu Yuansheng had seen the world, and now he quickly put away the shock in his heart, patted Qing Li's shoulder cordially, and said with a kind smile: "Miss Qing is polite, you can come, the old man is deeply honored!" ”
are all beautiful words on the scene, although Qing Li doesn't like it, it is understandable, and motioned to An Ning to send the brocade box, and then said with a light smile: "I prepared a thin gift today, and I hope that Master Lu will accept it with a smile." ”
Everyone had already recovered from Qing Li's appearance at this time, and they couldn't help but be curious, what would be the thing sent by the Qing Mansion, it had to be worthy of the identity!
I saw An Ning slowly open the brocade box, and three white and smooth pills were lying quietly in it, and suddenly a sweet and sweet fragrance came to the face, and this smell could make people feel refreshed just by smelling it.
Some merchants looked at the three pills and couldn't help but scoff. Sure enough, it's a medical family, and even the gifts are given to medicine, Hanqi!
However, other people don't think so, what is the Qing family, the head of the medical world, how bad can the pills that can be taken out? I'm afraid that some people can't afford this pill even if they are bankrupt!
That Lu Yuansheng is also well versed in this truth, not to mention, the medicinal fragrance of this medicine makes him feel extremely comfortable, and its medicinal effect is even more rare when he thinks about it.
"Miss Qing, this medicine is ......" Lu Yuansheng looked at Qing Li curiously, and the expectation in his eyes was exactly what he wanted to capture.
Qing Li hid a secret smile in his heart, and said calmly: "This is the Hundred Flowers Jade Dew Pill, which must be collected with hundreds of delicate flowers, with the spring equinox dew, summer solstice rain, autumn equinox frost water, and winter solstice snow water in the same year, mixed with hundreds of precious medicinal materials to be refined for three years, which can not only remove a hundred poisons and prevent diseases, but also prolong life and strengthen the foundation." ”
Qing Li said extremely calmly, but Lu Yuansheng's eyes were already shining with excitement.
He had heard of this Hundred Flowers Jade Dew Pill. In fact, what Qing Li said is too modest, the raw materials of this thing are all natural treasures, and the four kinds of jade dew need the right time, place and people, not to mention the complex process, and the effect is not limited to these! Basically, as long as you have a breath and take this medicine, you can live for a few more years, which is definitely a panacea! It is difficult for others to get one even if they are thousands of dollars, and now she has given away three, how can this dislike him?
Lu Yuansheng knew, and others naturally knew, at this moment, everyone's eyes were fixed on the pills in the small brocade box, and greedy eyes swept across everyone's eyes.
"Haha, thank you so much, Miss Qing!" Lu Yuansheng smiled and took the brocade box and put it in his arms.
He understands the truth of his sin, and how many people must covet such spiritual things if they are placed around them! Now he is really happy and annoyed, and I don't know if this Qingli did it on purpose.
Looking at everyone's mixed expressions, Qing Li smiled secretly. Although this Hundred Flowers Jade Dew Pill is precious, it is not the best thing for their Qing family, and it is still okay to send a few out at will. In addition, the Lu family has also begun to engage in the trading of medicinal materials in recent years, although it is small-scale, it can be regarded as challenging the authority of the Qing family in disguise, and this gift should be regarded as a small lesson for him!
Looking at the joy on this side, Lu Yuansheng called to a young girl behind him: "Xueyu, come here, I've seen Miss Qing." ”
Lu Xueyu walked slowly with a pout, glanced at Qing Li, and a wave of disgust and jealousy crossed her eyes. Hum! Why did this woman win everyone's attention from the beginning, but she was a little better-looking, not to mention, she was still Brother Chen's fiancée, what was there to see?
Thinking like this, Lu Xueyu's face was not very good, until Lu Yuansheng coughed on the side, Lu Xueyu reluctantly said slightly: "Miss Qing, I have heard of the name for a long time, and it is really extraordinary to see it today!" ”
Her tone was soft, but it sounded a little yin and yang to Qing Li.
In fact, Lu Xueyu is also a woman with bright eyes and bright teeth, but unfortunately she is still too young and doesn't know how to control her feelings well, just now she can see it clearly, that unkind expression is to eat her alive, when did she offend this daughter?
Qing Li was a little helpless, and smiled back: "Miss Lu is polite." ”
"Princess Chennan, the prince of the world, Duan Gongzi has arrived!"
Several people were greeting, and a loud announcement attracted everyone's attention, and everyone turned their eyes to the comer, and many people looked at Qing Li, after all, this prince is Miss Qing's designated fiancé, and now look at the two, it's really a match made in heaven!
Qing Li was slightly surprised and did not turn back in time. She forgot that Lu Yuansheng was Ling Yichen's uncle, and now that he has a birthday, he will naturally come to participate.
Heh, I really didn't expect them to meet in this situation. Moreover, after that announcement, the eyes of the Lu girl in front of her lit up, and now, she can be regarded as somewhat understanding where Lu Xueyu's hostility towards her came from.
Ling Yichen dismounted with an expressionless face and glanced at it casually, but his gaze stayed on a goose-yellow figure not far away, that back was very familiar......
"Auntie, Brother Chen, Brother Feng......" Lu Xueyu stepped forward happily, although everyone greeted her, but they always looked at Ling Yichen, and Duan Yufeng and Lu Wanqiu on the side only pursed their lips and snickered.
Girlish feelings, they all understand.
Regarding Lu Xueyu's flattery, Ling Yichen only bowed slightly. It's not that he doesn't know what this cousin is thinking, but he really doesn't have much affection for her, and this obedient appearance is too contrived.
Ling Yichen's lukewarmness made Lu Xueyu a little annoyed, but she also knew that she couldn't lose her temper, so she just continued to look at him pitifully.
At this time, Qing Li happened to turn around, and was about to see the rumored fiancé's demeanor, but he unexpectedly saw a familiar face.
It's him? Qing Li was surprised for a moment, and was slightly stunned between the two of them, but soon couldn't help laughing at himself.
Tatsukomi ...... Yes, a domineering and ruthless person like him, with iron and blood all over his body, who else can there be except for the prince who is known as the god of war? But she didn't think about it, now I'm afraid it's a joke!
Qing Li smiled lightly and said hello, directly ignoring Ling Yichen and Duan Yufeng's stunned looks, and turned around and walked into the house. Someone should explain this situation now, and there is no need to trouble her for the time being......
