Chapter 174: On the Banquet (Second Watch)

I heard Situ Xuan say that he would also come to Sun's Mansion, but she searched the backyard and didn't find Situ Xuan. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

After a while, there was the sound of food being served. Suddenly, the atmosphere in the stove room became solemn, and the expressions of each cook were serious and serious.

Yu Zhaodi remembered what Situ Xuan had told her, and the officials Sun Zhirui entertained this time were all from the capital, with prominent status, and they were all characters in the capital who would shake even if they stomped their feet. It's no wonder that these cooks look like they are facing a great enemy.

This atmosphere also generated a trace of tension in her heart, and she took a deep breath to relieve this emotion, but the effect was little. This drink tonight decided the future of her beauty Joan.

At the thought of this, she couldn't help but become more nervous, and even the hand holding the bowl trembled slightly.

"So you're here." A clear voice came from behind her, and Yu Zhaodi turned her head to see Situ Xuan standing behind her with a smile on his face.

Tonight's Situ Xuan looks a little different, wearing a very grand brocade silk and green silk suit, the faint purple will not be too public, nor will it be drowned in the crowd and cannot be found.

The slender figure, handsome face, and such a smile make people can't bear to look away. Yu Zhaodi always knew that this man was good-looking, but at this moment she realized that he was simply a demon-like existence.

"What? Isn't this son so handsome tonight that you can't take your eyes off it? ”

The light voice called back Yu Zhaodi's stunned expression, and when she raised her eyes, she saw that he didn't know when he had come to her side, and she stared at herself.

His eyes are unusually deep, like a bottomless ocean, which can easily swallow people.

Yu Zhaodi pursed her lips unconsciously, and finally took her eyes off his face. She snorted softly and said in a disdainful tone, "Shameless! ”

"Hahaha......" Situ Xuan listened to her words, and instead of getting angry, he laughed as if he had heard some praise.

Yu Zhaodi's face was inexplicably smiling, she couldn't help but glance at him again, and summed up two words, "Nerves." ”

Situ Xuan smiled even more.

After laughing, he tapped his finger on her forehead and whispered, "Prepare well, I'll wait for you in front." ”

Yu Zhaodi looked at Situ Xuan, who suddenly appeared and left suddenly, and she found that the tense atmosphere that had bothered her just now had disappeared.

Soon it was her turn to serve tea.

Because of the good weather, Sun Zhirui placed the banquet in the garden in the front yard, and it was also a beautiful thing to enjoy the flowers while eating and drinking.

Yu Zhaodi also found out after arriving in the front yard that Sun Zhirui had invited a lot of people, in addition to the few officials from the capital, there were also several influential officials in Bian Cheng, as well as businessmen and nobles on the rich side.

Among these people, she knows many people.

Situ father and son, the two fathers and sons of the Xia family, Chu Mubai, Ru Li, and even Xu Zimo are here. When she appeared in the front yard, the eyes of several people fell on her.

Sun Zhirui saw her coming, cleared his throat, and announced to everyone, "Okay, now let's let everyone taste the beauty Joan who has been unanimously praised at this tasting meeting." ”

As soon as his words fell, the people in the courtyard began to whisper. Especially the officials who came down from the capital, under the introduction of Sun Zhirui, they had long been interested in this beautiful Qiong.

Yu Zhaodi walked over slowly, not in a hurry, not fast, not slow. She looked ahead, her back straight, and although she was only wearing a dress made of cotton and linen, it was difficult to hide the innate temperament that she exuded.

It is like a lotus flower that comes out of the mud and is not stained, slim and elegant, outstanding in the world.

It attracted the attention of most of the people present.

The subordinates in the Sun Mansion placed the exquisite cups on the tables of several officials according to the instructions, these officials were all people who had seen the world, and when they saw this cup, their eyes flashed with appreciation.

It seems that this set of cups treasured by the state capital is not ordinary.

Yu Zhaodi slowly scooped the beauty Qiong out of the jar and poured it into the cup that was comparable to clotted cream.

Suddenly, an unusually cool aroma rushed into everyone's noses. The liquid in the cup is golden and clear, and there are silky grapefruit floating in it, and with the stirring of the spoon, it looks like a beautiful woman dancing one by one, making people can't bear to drink it.

After a bite, a lot of the heat in the body was dispelled, which made everyone admire.

Situ Xuan secretly gave her a thumbs up from a distance. Her performance tonight was really beyond his expectations, and there was no trace of timidity in the presence of so many people.

At this time, Xia Qinglan stood up, bowed slightly to several officials, and said, "The villain's daughter learned that several adults were going to come to Bian Cheng, so she specially practiced a dance, and wanted to perform it for a few adults, I don't know what the adults think?" ”

Sun Zhirui heard him say this, smiled and said to several officials sitting next to him, "A few adults have good eyes today, the daughter of Old Man Xia's family is a rare talent, with both talent and wisdom." ”

At this time, someone next to him said, "I heard that Master Xia's two daughters are both proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, so you might as well invite them all up today, one strokes the piano and the other dances, isn't it beautiful?" ”

"Good, good! In this way, please invite Master Xia's two daughters to come up and cheer up. Sun Zhirui nodded at Xia Qinglan, Xia Qinglan gestured to the subordinate standing aside, and after a while, he saw Ruyi gently helping Xia Ningsheng to step forward.

What a beauty with a face like a hibiscus and a body like a willow!

Lightly sweeping the moth eyebrows, a pair of phoenix eyes with ten thousand styles, a snow-white dress lined with her white and flawless skin, making people feel that the fairy above the nine heavens has strayed into the mortal dust. Although there was a faint sadness on her face, it did not make people feel unacceptable, but added a feeling of pity to her.

As soon as she appeared, she attracted the attention of all the men present, and even Situ Xuan's eyes flashed with amazement when he looked at her. However, he quickly withdrew his gaze and inadvertently glanced at Yu Zhaodi, who was standing not far away.

Yu Zhaodi stood aside and watched gently, as far as she knew, Sun Zhirui did not invite the female dependents. In this case, a discerning person can know at a glance that several people have colluded in advance. Looking at Xia Ningsheng's outfit, it is obvious that Xia Qinglan came prepared.

Everyone present is a human spirit, and everyone knows what his purpose is. (To be continued.) )
