Although it is only the marriage of the concubine of the Marquis of Anxin, many officials and ladies of the court and the family have come, which is also the reason why the old marquis personally went to send the wedding card.

For this kind of result, the happiest are Aunt Liu and the Lin family, originally they didn't expect this wedding banquet to be so grand, generally there will not be so many big officials and nobles willing to come when they get married, and they are nothing more than some low-level officials or relatives and friends who want to curry favor.

Unexpectedly, this time Cui Shuxing got married, the old marquis personally ran one by one, sent wedding cards, and invited people in person, An Xinhou also has some status in the court, and everyone didn't want to lose his face, so they were all invited to come and gave a particularly rich gift.

This wedding banquet was originally handed over to Zhu Rong to be organized, she thought to herself, the marriage of the concubine is at most about 20 tables, but she didn't expect a lot of people to come at once, roughly calculated, at least 50 tables, and all the people who came were powerful people, nobles, princely families, if it was time to open the banquet, people could not eat, then the Anxin Marquis Mansion could be regarded as a big loss of face this time.

So Mrs. Hou made a decision, and immediately personally deployed manpower, and then went to the nearest place to buy chicken, duck, fish, mountain vegetables, fruits and pastries to be used on the table, and Zhu Rong went to take care of the kitchen, urging them to cook, and sent the wooden butler to order some signature dishes in several big restaurants outside, which was considered to deal with the first day's banquet and the guests' snacks.

Next, Mrs. Hou Ye personally went into battle to entertain the ladies and ladies who came down from the table, but there were too many people, so she had to ask Zhu Rong to come to the front hall to greet her, and even Chunjuan's aunt also came in handy, as for the other side of the wedding banquet, Aunt Liu came out to greet some official ladies on her own initiative, and Mrs. Hou Ye had no time to care about her.

Cui Shuxing's wedding banquet, on the first day, the whole mansion of Anxin Houfu, from top to bottom, was so busy that they were about to fly, because the preparation was not sufficient in advance, so they were in a hurry all day. On the second day, it was much better, so being prepared was different, and on the third day, everyone was quick and handy.

At this wedding banquet, everyone got their own benefits, Hou Ye increased his contacts in the court, and Mrs. Hou Ye got to know many ladies of the family, and learned a lot of news about the upper class from them.

Aunt Liu has a good daughter-in-law, but this daughter-in-law will not call her mother, she will only call Mrs. Hou Ye her mother, and call her husband's biological mother an aunt.

Among them, there are also Zhu Rong and Chunjuan who have benefited, Zhu Rong saw for the first time the grand occasion that she had not had the opportunity to see before, many noble ladies and ladies who wanted to know in the past, it was difficult to get to know one on weekdays, but now half of them are known, she and many young ladies like her who have just been married for two days, they have become good friends, and agreed to invite each other to a party in the future.

As for Chunjuan, she even got a few intimate friends, although several of them are just concubines of the family, but being able to be friends with her, the aunt of the little Hou Ye, is already worthy of her, Chunjuan is considered to be high, when she is with them, she is naturally flattered everywhere, these concubines are probably treated coldly at home, and when they arrive at the Hou Mansion they are sought after, and they are also very surprised for a while, and they can't help but have a lot of good feelings for this Aunt Chunjuan at once, and they actually associate with her.

After the three-day wedding banquet, the guests said goodbye one after another, Mrs. Hou and Zhu Rong stood at the door, one by one to send people away, in the evening, Mrs. Hou's waist hurt, ouch ouch screamed that it was uncomfortable, the second master's newly married wife Lin heard about it and rushed to Yonghe Courtyard overnight to give Mrs. Hou a hot compress and massage, very filial.

Zhu Rong, who hurried over after hearing the news, could only watch from the sidelines, as long as she wanted to go up to help, Lin smiled and said: "Sister Rong, let me come, you don't know acupuncture points and massage, I often make this for my mother at home." I think my mother's low back pain may be related to rheumatism, you see, as soon as I press her, it doesn't hurt. ”

Zhu Rong saw her pressing her hands on Mrs. Hou at will, and felt that it was not so difficult, so she rolled up her sleeves and pressed it a few times on the other side of Mrs. Hou's waist, but she didn't expect her to scream a few times and said, "Let's let Wanzhen come." Zhu Rong had no choice but to step aside in embarrassment and look at it like a wooden stake.

As long as it rains, no matter if it is winter or summer, there will be a faint pain in the arms, legs, and waist, and sometimes the pain is so bad that it is really indescribable, as if the bones are about to break.

On this one problem, Mrs. Hou Ye took a lot of medicine, invited doctors all over the capital, all said that only take medicine and apply plasters, but the effect of taking medicine is slow, and applying plasters is fast, but Mrs. Hou Ye will be red and itchy on the skin every time she applies the plaster, swollen and painful. This black decoction is a must-drink every day, but it doesn't seem to have much effect when you drink it, and I always feel a little sore and uncomfortable all over my body on weekdays.

Since Cui Shuxing married Lin Wanzhen, Mrs. Hou Ye is like having a baby, and she will be asked to massage herself in a day or two, this Lin Wanzhen's technique is really good, it is indeed able to press the quasi-acupuncture points, after her massage and massage, Mrs. Hou Ye feels that her body is really refreshing, her hands and feet are much more flexible than before, and her waist is not sore.

After coming and going, Mrs. Hou became dependent on Lin Wanzhen, and if she didn't come to massage herself for two days, she felt uncomfortable, she couldn't eat, and she couldn't sleep well. As soon as Lin Wanzhen came, she felt comfortable, it was really more effective than taking any panacea.

Zhu Rong **** watched Lin Wanzhen gather around Mrs. Hou, excluding herself, hating her teeth, but there was nothing she could do, one day, she complained to Chunjuan: "You said that Lin Wanzhen, why don't you stay in her Qinghe Courtyard to accompany her husband to paint, and go to Yonghe Courtyard all day long, what is it like, as if she is a serious daughter-in-law, and I don't want to think about it, my husband is just a concubine." ”

Chunjuan comforted on the side: "Second lady, don't be angry, I think the Lin family can also massage, let's find a girl who can massage to teach, I just happen to have a girl who can massage in the yard, why don't I send her to the second lady and come over to serve you well?" ”

When Zhu Rong heard this, didn't someone send a pillow just as she wanted to doze off? immediately agreed, and on the second day, Chunjuan really brought a maid, named Xiaoya, whose name is not good, but she is too beautiful.

Although the little marquis had never been to Chenxi Pavilion, Zhu Rong was still afraid that this girl named Xiaoya would be seen by him, so she arranged her in a row of low houses behind the courtyard, and went over every day when she was fine, and asked her to press her shoulders and loosen her bones, and by the way, learn her massage techniques.

Since Mrs. Rong also learned the technique of this massage, she **** went to Yonghe Courtyard to serve diligently, although the technique is not as good as Lin's, but Mrs. Hou likes her to be clever and can tell jokes, and she has gradually become closer to her.

Since having two daughters-in-law, Mrs. Hou has saved a lot of money, handed over the big kitchen to Zhu Rong to take care of, and handed over the flower room to Lin Wanzhen to take care of, and she is in charge of the financial power of the whole house and enjoys the service of the two daughters-in-law. As for Chunjuan, who was always in front of her in the past, although **** came to Yonghe Courtyard with Zhu Rong, but now Mrs. Hou doesn't pay much attention to her, and she looks like she has fallen out of favor.
