Chapter 387: It's Late
For everyone, this day was very fulfilling, in addition to having a big meal, the guest also received an education, and Lin Yu in addition to the reputation and praise he received, he also deepened his relationship with his lover, except for drinking a little too much, this day can be said to be a fruitful one.
The guests invited to the banquet on the second day were not the top nobles of the clan, but the high-ranking nobles, among which the Lu family, the Marquis of Zhenyuan, was among them. Although you are the prince's mother's family, and they have been in power recently, the Lu family's strength is still not comparable to that of several great families that have been inherited for a long time. But in fact, it is only that far behind, among the nobles who were invited to the banquet on the second day, the Lu family was the highest level, in addition to the Marquis of Zhenyuan, there were also Marquis Dingnan and other marquises' mansions, which have also been quite powerful recently.
"I heard that at the banquet yesterday, the new county lord Jian Hui invited a bowl of white porridge by himself, I don't know if there is a Lu Dao today." One person said with great interest.
"Probably yes, anyway, I really haven't drunk that kind of ordinary white porridge for a long time." The other guy said with a smile, looked at the surrounding decoration again, and lowered his business, "This house looks really rich, I heard that Mrs. Yin's house was borrowed?" I didn't expect Mrs. Yin to be such a rich lord. ”
"You don't have to hear about it." The other guy pierced his words, glanced at the upper seat and said, "Anyway, Lu Pingzhi's guy didn't come on the battlefield, what are you still doing so cautiously?" Speaking of which, Lu Pingzhi is really confused, such a beauty, so much wealth, he gave up when he said he gave up, I don't know who is cheaper? ”
"Isn't it rumored that the kid from the Yuan family is going to be engaged to Mrs. Yin?" After all, you can belittle and slander Lu Pingzhi, and it involves a stunning beauty. Most of the people were interested in this kind of gossip, and another guy joined in the discussion.
Of course, it won't be discussed too much, even if you don't look at Yin Susu's house. At the banquet where Yin Susu's sister was crowned the county lord, these guys still have some respect for Yin Susu's beauty and family background, even when they talk about it in private, they are not frivolous. is Zhang Waner's reputation, but it is a little bad in private, after all, she is from a junior background, although a man is greedy for beauty. It's inevitable to look down on it.
Yin Susu will inevitably be discussed, not to mention Mrs. Lin and Zhang Wan's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, who were innuendoly and unclear on the table. It stands to reason. In this case, the host will come over and untie the fence or something. But today's banquet is held in Yin Susu's territory, and the wedding banquet held by Lin Yu who was named the county lord is held, and it is the people of the King of Qi who help to handle it, and none of them have a good impression of the Zhang family.
In fact. Lin Yu really didn't expect the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to come. Especially Zhang Wan'er, it is rumored that she has been sick in bed recently, and no one has anything to say if she doesn't come. Mrs. Lin, after all, she is still Lin Yu's cousin, and it is impossible for Lin Yu not to give her any face, and there is also the possibility of coming.
However, although it was shot and arrowed, and insinuations, the atmosphere at the banquet was not stiff. Mrs. Lin is an old man. was said a few words, and the boat was pushed back. I can't afford to lose anything. But with Zhang Wan'er's character, she was ridiculed like that, and she didn't even quarrel with anyone, which surprised Lin Yu.
Surprised, since it doesn't look like there will be any trouble, Lin Yu doesn't pay much attention to it, she was toasted a lot yesterday, and she still has a slight headache today, and she has to come forward to take care of it anyway.
The atmosphere of the whole banquet is also very good, basically a copy of yesterday, but the white porridge is not as shocking as before. Lin Yu doesn't care, the so-called drama is a full set, although it has no effect, it is still correct. You always have to do a full set of plays, otherwise you were on yesterday and not today, do you look down on us or what?
Moreover, even from an economic point of view, this white porridge is indispensable, Lin Yu because the economy at hand was relatively tight, Xiaobai joked, it would be good if they all drank white porridge, it would save money very much. Lin Yu then remembered this idea and reported it to Yu Wenji, after all, the host of this banquet was also with the participation of the Ministry of Etiquette, and it was impossible to hide it from Yu Wenji, the emperor.
Yu Wenji smiled after learning about Lin Yu's arrangement, and he agreed. As a fairly virtuous emperor, he absolutely does not want to see the privileged class extravagant, and takes extravagance for granted, and it is good for someone to think of a wake-up call. In fact, he was very satisfied with his vision, and felt that Lin Yu was worthy of the title of this county lord, and he began to worry about the monarch when he held a banquet.
Not to mention, although everyone knew Lin Yu's intentions, drank this tasteless white porridge, and remembered the life of fat chickens and ducks on weekdays, they were really ashamed of their usual luxury and waste, and many people secretly reorganized their housework a little after returning home. This also saved the economic situation of some families to a certain extent, like Jia Fu, who was extravagant and extravagant, and maintained a shelf of money beyond their means, and as a result, there were several families whose inner pockets gradually came up.
"Speaking of which, this really deserves a cup of respect for Lord Jian Hui." A young earl sighed softly.
"Don't think about it, yesterday the county lord Jian Hui drank too much, and today he has already released his words, except for the glass of wine that is saluted to the saint today, not a drop of wine." The other guy said mockingly, "Don't look at that white boy, people are in a hurry first, you are late, and there is no way to do it." Moreover, do you have someone who has that good looks? It is said that several county lords and county lords also said privately that if they can marry such a husband, they don't care if they are cloth clothes or not. ”
"I'm not bad-looking, am I?" The young earl was a little unconvinced, but he changed his tune when he looked at his friend's amused gaze. "Okay, don't laugh. I admit that my appearance and demeanor are not as good as this white scarlet. But the rumors are really not credible, if I really knew that the county lord of Lu Dao Jian Hui was such a person, I would have come to the door to ask for relatives a long time ago, how could I let this out-of-town kid take the lead. ”
Most of the characters who appeared yesterday were nobles of the clan, although they also praised Lin Yu's beauty and bearing worthy of her title, but they didn't have too many charming thoughts. Today is different, there are a lot of young sons, and there are also some unmarried young handsome, how can you not fall in love with the beauty?
However, Lin Yu's reputation was not particularly good before, for Lu Pingzhi's suicide, he was entangled with the Seventh Prince, his background was not innocent, and he was an orphan girl, so it was impossible to enter the eyes of these people. At this time, the ugly duckling turned into a swan, and many people regretted it a little, such a beauty, and now she has such a high status, but it is a pity that she is cheaper than a civilian boy from other places.
"By the way, have you seen Lord Jian Hui?" The young Earl was still a little unwilling.
"No, I just left the table." The other person smiled and said, "Qilang, you should die, who told you to come late, the white prince is a charcoal in the snow, you are the icing on the cake, it is different." ”
At this time, at the center of their topic, the new Jian Hui County Lord Lin Yu was looking at Zhang Wan'er in front of him, and he really didn't know what to say. (To be continued......)
