Chapter 311: Spring Banquet
Since beating Yang Yunshu and waking up Xuanhui with a sharp speech, she slowly recovered from her decadent mood. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info she realized at this time that after getting married, she relied on Pei Minzhong so deeply from psychology to life.
She couldn't help but smile bitterly, when she first came here, where did all that ambition and desire to protect her family and country go? If someone really holds an umbrella, it is no longer necessary to plan for a rainy day.
Xuanhui called the medical officer Ren and set a detailed prescription for raising the fetus. Eat seriously on time every day, walk in the garden after eating, and walk around in the evening. I constantly cheer myself up in my heart, and in the days when Pei Minzhong is not around, I have to raise myself to be fat and fat!
In March, the weather is getting warmer, and the peach blossoms and spring flowers in the Guogong Mansion are blooming. Xuanhui asked someone to fold fresh flowers every day and sent them to Mrs. Tai and Mrs. Jiang, and occasionally in person. Mrs. Tai refused harshly at first, but slowly accepted it later, and then led the little girl to prune the flower branches from time to time and insert the bottle herself.
The army was about to set off, and the people in Jinling City did not feel the slightest abnormality, and every family took the time to take people out to enjoy the spring. The handsome young man is freshly dressed and angry, the beautiful woman is delicate and charming, the breeze is slightly moving, and the peach blossoms are like rain, and I don't know how many crazy men and women have been married. As for the end of their respective marriages, that's another story.
The atmosphere in King An's mansion was a little tense and busy, perhaps because he was going to hold a grand spring banquet on March 3, or because the prince sympathized with the princess's hard pregnancy a few days ago, and proposed to let Aunt Lan help the council but was rejected by the princess. In short, the faces of each master have gloom that is not commensurate with the bright spring light.
On the third day of March, Xuanhui ordered Pei Shuangxi to come over and accompany his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to the palace for the Spring Banquet.
On the way out of the house, Pei Xuanye muttered, "Where did my brother go?" It's been a few days and I haven't seen ......."
Mrs. Jiang hurriedly scolded: "You girl, have you forgotten the rules at home?" You can only listen to everything, not ask questions! ”
Pei Xuanye looked at Xuanhui helplessly, and Xuanhui also smiled: "I can't stand on your side this time." Mother is right, what your brother has done that we can know, he will naturally say. If you shouldn't know, we can't ask. ”
"I'll bet two taels of silver, sister-in-law, you must know what your brother is doing." Pei Xuan smiled narrowly.
Xuanhui smiled: "You can buy flowers and wear them yourself for two taels of silver!" Otherwise, it's better to keep it and save the dowry! ”
The words were so embarrassing that Pei Xuan had nowhere to hide at night.
After the Chinese New Year, Pei Minzhong revealed to Mrs. Jiang that Qin Lang wanted to ask to marry Pei Xuanye, although Mrs. Jiang felt that the Qin family's background was too thin, but the hero didn't ask where she came from, she and her husband were also from a poor family. What's more, with her son who she trusted very much as a guarantor, Mrs. Jiang nodded and agreed, just waiting for Qin Lang to come back from the northern front, and the two families exchanged Geng posts and gave dowries.
When they arrived at the palace, the eldest girl and Li Ruolan greeted the female dependents at Yimen together, Xuanhui couldn't help sighing, Yang Yunshu still had to compromise a few points in the end.
As soon as everyone sat down in the main hall of the royal banquet, Mrs. Jiang smiled and said to Mrs. Meng: "You are getting younger and younger, and your complexion today is much better than before!" ”
Yang Yunshu said with a smile: "Duchess Guo's words are right, Mrs. Meng looks better than their group of teenage girls today!" ”
Mrs. Meng smiled from ear to ear, and said strangely: "It's been a friendship for many years, and there is no joker like you!" ”
Xuanhui couldn't understand, so he asked Meng Tingfang: "What is the great joy of your family?" ”
Meng Tingfang pouted and said: "It's nothing, it's just that the prince transferred my brother back from Jiangning County and worked as an errand in the Jinling Garrison Mansion." My mother just thinks that my brother is home again, so she is so happy, and she smiles like something every day! ”
Xuanhui smiled: "Little girl, you are jealous!" ”
Meng Tingfang said angrily: "What kind of jealousy are you eating, it's going to annoy me to death!" As soon as my mother heard that my brother was coming back, she called a matchmaker, and the third girl of the Zhang family and the second miss of the Li family asked me if I had seen it and how my character was! ”
Pei Xuanye looked at his cousin who was sitting next to him and drinking tea quietly, and suddenly his heart moved, so he leaned into Xuanhui's ear and muttered.
Xuan Hui chuckled, "Your idea is good, it's just ...... Let me think about it. ”
Meng Shiyi looks good, and the children of the family are from Jinshi. Mrs. Meng is just this one son, and she can't be a baby, so she is determined to choose a daughter-in-law who is good at morality, speech, and work. I think Pei Shuangxi is good, but if Mrs. Meng doesn't like it, the two families can't help but be a little embarrassed.
"I wonder what kind of daughter-in-law your mother wants?" Xuan Hui asked Meng Tingfang with a smile.
"Who knows!" Meng Tingfang said angrily, "She thinks that my brother is a good man of the best rank in the world, and he must find a woman who is in the sky and not in the ground to be worthy!" ”
Mrs. Meng reprimanded: "What are you talking about! It's about your brother's life, can I not worry about it? ”
Yang Yunshu hurriedly smiled and said, "Ting Fang, this is messing with you!" Blame you for only thinking about your brother and not about her! ”
Meng Tingfang waved her hand again and again and said, "What did you say, princess!" I didn't mean that! I wish I could be an old girl at home for the rest of my life......"
Mrs. Meng's face was even more difficult to look at, and she said angrily: "Stinky girl, just talk nonsense at home, come out like this!" When your reputation spreads, see who dares to marry you! ”
Pei Shuangxi sat next to Mrs. Meng, hurriedly got up and refilled some tea in her cup, and said with a smile: "Madam, don't be angry, Sister Tingfang is just joking." If it weren't for a loving mother like you at home, how could my sister be reluctant to leave home! ”
Mrs. Meng took a sip of the teacup and smiled at Mrs. Jiang: "These girls of the Pei family are all good, why don't you give me one to be a daughter-in-law?" ”
Mrs. Jiang thought that her daughter had already made up her mind with the Qin family, and she was not Pei Shuangxi's mother, so it was inconvenient to make the decision, so she only smiled and did not speak.
Pei Xuan saw that her mother didn't give her strength at night, so she bit her ear with Xuanhui again: "Brother Meng is really good, their family doesn't accept concubines, Sister Shuangxi missed it, it's a pity!" Why don't I take Sister Shuangxi out, bump into Brother Meng indiscriminately, and ask them to take a look, if Brother Meng falls in love with my sister, our family will go and say kiss! ”
Xuanhui is helpless, this sister-in-law is really not afraid of the sky, and she can think of such a trick.
"You give me a good life to sit!" Xuanhui whispered, "Even if you want to take her out to see her, I have to go." You two unmarried little girls are running around, not to mention that if you meet someone who is not careful, just follow the rules you do, I am afraid that Mrs. Meng will look down on Shuangxi! ”
