Chapter 171 Dinner
When she entered the carriage, Shao Xunmei refused to ride in the same carriage with Li Rongxi, so she got into the carriage behind, which was the carriage when she came to Zhuangzi, low-key and ordinary. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info but King Ding just took a deep look, didn't say anything, and then got into the car.
By the time the two of them returned to the palace, it was already completely dark, and it was already past the time for dinner.
However, Steward Zhou personally ordered a sumptuous meal to be prepared, and respectfully invited the prince to return to the house for the first dinner.
Supposedly, this dinner should have been prepared by the princess, and it was to be prepared in her courtyard. But Shao Xunmei is a big shelf and has just been picked up by Li Rongxi, where does she have time to prepare?
Even, being able to sit down and dine with Li Rongxi, and his expression is quite calm, is already very face-saving.
And when Shao Xunmei returned home, she had already adjusted her mentality: did she have a cold face all day long, a shelf against King Ding, and refuse everything? It was simply too emotionally explicit, and it didn't fit her temperament at all. And for such a person, it is just a waste for her to report such ups and downs.
Therefore, she still treats him with a normal heart, calm and rational, and treats him as a stranger living in the same palace. No big deal.
And if she thinks like this, she won't overly reject this man, but deep down in her heart, she is a person who has nothing to do with him. Even enemies!
And this dinner was used in the front yard, Shao Xunmei didn't have any look of vanity and surprise, just faintly, sitting there, not even dressing up, not changing clothes, still the plain clothes, but a pair of eyes as black as jade, indifferent.
Standing next to her were Xiangzhi and Peilan, and when the two of them saw King Ding, they first had to reflect that they were weak and afraid, but when they saw their princess so calm, they also slowly entered the state, treating King Ding with a normal heart, respectfully and lowering their eyes, not daring to look at the close-up face.
And the two of them were anxious at this time: What should I do, King Ding is back, the princess must be careful, don't be discovered by King Ding! Otherwise, where would the princess still have her life? His Royal Highness King Dingwang hopes that after His Majesty's birthday, you will leave as soon as possible!
It's a pity that their hopes are destined to come to naught, and His Royal Highness Dingwang will spend half a year in the capital this time.
And Shao Xunmei also saw the maid who served him beside King Ding, I'll go, your sister, is that battle even more luxurious than Your Majesty? The leaders are two women who are about twenty-four or five years old and have cold and indifferent expressions, and at first glance they are big girls with relatively high status, and they may even be the same person as a roommate. And behind him, there were rows of women holding handkerchiefs and carrying basins of water, standing in a row respectfully, to serve His Royal Highness the King.
But seeing him sitting there without moving, one of them was beautiful, cold and moving, with a cold and fairy-like temperament, carefully and quickly rolled up his sleeves, the other walked up with a basin of water, holding it upright, and the other woman who looked delicate, but with a gentle and comfortable smile gently put his hands in the basin and washed.
After waiting, another girl came up and wiped his hands in an orderly manner, and some picked up tea to rinse his mouth...... Waiting for the woman who was sitting on a series of pre-meal preparations, Xiang Zhi and Pei Lan were simply dumbfounded by such a tedious process.
This, the battle of the prince is so big! The two of them are like that, they are simply hillbillies who have never seen the world!
But Shao Xunmei glanced at the two of them, and the two of them reacted immediately, but their expressions and movements were a little restrained, the prince has so many maids, but the princess, you are only the two of us! The difference is so obvious, it's just that there is no comparison, there is no harm.
What can they do to make the princess look less shabby and imposing? And the clothes worn by the princess, the girls around the two princes are more gorgeous and beautiful than the princess!
Moreover, these two maids, no matter how you look at it, they all have a leg with the prince! It should be the prince's room! In this case, the princess should have a high profile and a high profile.
However, their own princess is a "mud can't support the wall" character, so they are always secretly anxious.
Sure enough, I saw that the cold and unwavering eyes of my princess looked at it so straight, and spit out two words in a cold tone: "As usual!" "What's the alarm? As for it? What to do or how to do it!
Therefore, Shao Xunmei asked Xiangzhi to prepare water, and then left the seat and washed it carefully, she is a doctor, so she has a little cleanliness in terms of hygiene, so she has to wash her hands twice, and then wipe it with a snow-white hand towel and sit down again, and then prepare to wait for the meal.
Immediately, I saw that the girls who were standing all looked at her, and their eyes were full of strangeness: the princess is also said to be from a big family in the Ningguo Mansion, why is even the basic dining etiquette so incomplete and so concise? And also wash your own hands, no need to serve? Don't be too surprised! It seems that this princess has such a difficult life in the palace or is it casual?
Li Rongxi, the king of Dingding, didn't seem to see it, and didn't even look at it, and the two big girls stood there with their eyes and noses, their noses and mouths, without a trace of surprise on their faces, and their expressions were the same as before.
Well, it really deserves to be a close servant to King Ding, and it seems that he has learned the skills of His Royal Highness King Ding.
Oh, by the way, there is a third person, Li Tingye, who also shouted to eat together, and naturally Shao Xunmei agreed. And Li Tingye's previous dining etiquette procedures were similar, cumbersome and perfect, but since he followed Shao Xunmei, he followed Shao Xunmei, he followed Shao Xunmei to wash his hands and wipe his hands, and then sat down and happily prepared to eat.
made the girls even more shocked: the princess herself simplified the dining etiquette, how could she educate the prince so unkindly? Some petty family!
The dishes on the whole table are very rich, there are a total of thirty-six dishes, as well as four desserts, four soups, four staple dishes have not come up, on the round table of rosewood, the plates are stacked, the aroma is fragrant, Li Tingye can't wait to eat after Li Rongxi said to eat.
And he opened his mouth and said to Shao Xunmei: "Mother, I want to eat that steamed beef." Then, the white and tender little paws, the sparkling and longing eyes, looked at it like that.
Then everyone saw that a few girls behind Li Tingye had become decorations, and Shao Xunmei had a gentle temperament and doting eyes, and without a little impatience, she took out a spoonful with the small spoon inside and put it in his small bowl.
Obviously, this should not happen once or twice, but often and we are used to it.
Immediately, Li Tingye's voice sounded one after another: "Mother, I want to eat that boiled crayfish." Shao Xunmei gave him one, "Mother, I want to drink that white-looking soup." ”
The distance was a little far, and one of the little girls hurriedly picked up Shizi's small bowl and filled him with a bowl.
And Shao Xunmei said to him: "Li Tingye, how did I find out that you still only eat meat?" Eat some greens! Li Tingye was just about to pout, but Shao Xunmei's faint voice came again: "I forgot why I had a toothache?" Li Tingye lowered his eyes, and Shao Xunmei sandwiched some vegetables for him.
And Li Tingye pouted and looked at Shao Xunmei: "Then you feed me, concubine!" ”
Well, although this kid respects his father very much, but his nature is a snack, and when he has food, his father and mother forget it, so he so happily left King Ding behind!
And he and Shao Xunmei are used to eating together, and they all let Shao Xunmei clip this and that for him, and he just enjoys this warm feeling, which makes him feel that he is the most painful thing in his mother's heart.
When King Ding saw this situation, his brows were getting more and more wrinkled, and his face was getting darker and darker, his whole face was not good, and the girls around him obviously noticed the change in the master's mood, so they all lowered their heads and hung low.
And only the mother and son did not notice his emotional changes, or ignored them all.
Then, Li Tingye, who was eating very happily, seemed to think of his father at this time, and then swallowed the food in his mouth and smiled at Li Rongxi: "Father, what do you see, hurry up and eat." ”
And Li Rongxi suddenly put down the chopsticks in his hand, and then looked at Li Tingye coldly and frowned: "Eat without words!" Li Tingye, how old are you? Don't you have a girl by your side? Don't have hands? ”
Look at this situation, it is simply a typical example of a loving mother with many defeated children! Could this be the reason why Li Tingye is attached to this woman?
Li Tingye was a little afraid of Li Rongxi, and when he heard him say this, he quickly lowered his head, drooped his eyelids, and took the bowl in Shao Xunmei's hand and planned to eat it himself. And Shao Xunmei looked at Li Tingye so gently, holding a spoon in her hand, and said with a smile: "How will we do next time?" Our Ting Ye is almost finished eating, and after eating these few bites, he is full, isn't it? ”
Completely, ignoring it, it is simply a provocation to the majesty of King Ding!
Li Rongxi only felt that his brows were about to twist: What is this woman doing with him? To express his displeasure at his forced return to her home?
And Shao Xunmei's eyes looked at him so calmly, and that look instantly made him understand, he was wrong: "Lord Wang, let's eat." Eating with emotions will affect digestion and is not good for the body! ”
In a simple sentence, it explained the reason for her resistance: she didn't want Li Tingye to eat with emotions. It's all for the good of the child.
And Li Rongxi didn't know why, so he eliminated all his emotions, and then ate like that. Li Tingye ate quickly, and after eating, he retreated to play. And Shao Xunmei then began to eat slowly.
After Pei Lan filtered her dishes and chopsticks with warm water, she began to eat her own, without the slightest intention of serving her husband and serving her husband virtuously, compared to her patience and meticulous temper with Li Tingye just now, it is simply the difference between heaven and earth!
It seems that in the eyes of the princess, the prince is not as important as the prince!
Even Lee Yong-hee, who has always been emotionally unfazed, feels a little ...... about such a before-and-after comparison Wrong!
However, he has always rarely exposed his emotions, but his eyes darkened, and then under the service of two personal maids, he began to eat in a formal manner, elegant and noble, slow and orderly.
Shao Xunmei stopped her chopsticks after eating for seven minutes, then drank a few sips of fragrant tea, and then left the table, speaking softly, elegant and calm, and her smile was even more gentle and kind: "Lord Wang, I'm done eating, you use it slowly." ”
didn't say husband, let alone call himself a concubine or a concubine or other humble titles, and directly used me. Moreover, he left the table without waiting for the prince to run out! And it's both mother and son, it seems that the prince has been left behind.
Then, everyone looked at the figure of the princess preparing to leave in surprise again: Isn't the princess afraid of the prince's cold and angry? Although, most of the princes are emotionless, but that's what makes people unpredictable and scared!
Then everyone looked at the prince again, and saw that the prince didn't have any emotion, just the hand of the chopsticks, so he paused...... (To be continued.) )
