Chapter 455: Spoiling
The people in Guangping Houfu, except for Shu Hongxuan, all want to talk to Zhou Tingyu, especially Mei's is even more urgent, now her mother's defeat is inevitable, her son Shu Hongwen wants to get ahead, relying on his mother's family can't do it, there is a prince in front of him, or a prince who is favored by His Majesty, Mei's family feels sorry for himself. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
As early as yesterday, she told her son that he must talk to His Royal Highness the Fifth Highness by being Shu Yanhua's younger brother, and it is best to let His Highness have a clear understanding of his talent, so that His Royal Highness can value him, so that when he steps into his career in the future, he will also have a backer behind him.
Mei thought to herself, anyway, until now, Shu Hongxuan and Shu Yanhua, the two brothers and sisters, still don't know the truth about Yan's death, and to this day, she has never dealt with the two brothers and sisters, in front of them, she is still a good stepmother who loves her original children, don't you see that the gifts prepared by His Royal Highness Fifth Highness for her and Yu'er are very precious?
Mei thought that as long as His Royal Highness could bring Wen'er with her, not only would she not deal with Shu Hongxuan's two siblings again, but she would also offer Shu Yanhua as an ancestor.
After losing his biggest backer, Mei's family was very aware of the current affairs and forcibly suppressed his hatred and grievances, thinking that at least when his son stepped into the official career, when his son would gain a firm foothold with the help of His Royal Highness the Fifth Highness, and then slowly plan for the title of Guangping Houfu.
As long as the Hou Ye is in one day, this title will not be easily handed over to Shu Hongxuan, so that her son still has a chance.
But the Mei family waited left and right, and they didn't see the Fifth Highness go down to the front yard, you said that you are a big man, what are you doing here in the inner courtyard? Shouldn't you go to the front yard, so that the Hou Ye can take the young masters in the mansion to talk about the love of Weng and his son-in-law? Why did you stay here and sit quietly and drink tea here?
Isn't the return gift already distributed? Why are you still here? Mei's heart was anxious, if she stayed with the old lady, how could Wen'er still talk to the Fifth Highness?
Mei Shi took advantage of the fact that everyone was not paying attention, and quietly gave Shu Xiuhe a look, and proposed to Wen'er to let His Royal Highness the Fifth Highness pay attention to this matter, which was the result of the discussion between the two husbands and wives, and Shu Xiuhe understood what she meant as soon as he saw his wife's eyes.
Taking advantage of a gap, Shu Xiuhe interjected: "Your Highness, here is just a few of their mothers to speak, why don't we go to the front yard to talk?" ”
Zhou Tingyu has been sitting quietly drinking tea since he distributed the gifts, and now listening to Shu Xiuhe's words, he raised his head and asked, "What time is it?" ”
Grape quickly replied, "Back to Your Highness, it's almost noon now." ”
Zhou Tingyu put down the teacup in his hand and said lightly: "Since this is the case, there is no need to go to the front yard to talk, let people start to set up meals, and when I run out of lunch in a while, I still have something to rush back to the prince's mansion to deal with." ”
His son got married, Emperor Chengde doted on him again, and the wedding period was given for nearly a month, so that he could accompany Hua Niang well, and then return to the army after a month, during which nothing could disturb him.
The thing he said that he had to go home to deal with was fake, and it was true that he wanted Shu Yanhua to rest at lunch on time.
He remembered Shu Yanhua's schedule firmly, and had already planned to take Shu Yanhua back to the house to let her take a nap after having lunch in Guangping Houfu, and the so-called handling of things was just an excuse.
Shu Xiuhe seemed to have punched the cotton, he couldn't go up or down, he choked very uncomfortably, looking at His Highness's pale face, and it was not good to brush his mind, so he could only order someone to pass the food.
Ordinary people's three dynasties return to the door, it should be Weng and son-in-law talking in the front yard, and the eldest sister-in-law Guining talks with her mother, sister-in-law and sister in the inner courtyard, but Zhou Tingyu refuses to move the nest and has been guarding Shu Yanhua's side, and when the meal is finally passed on, it becomes Zhou Tingyu, Shu Xiu and the men with the Hou Mansion to eat in the main hall, and the Guan family takes Shu Yanhua and the female relatives of the Hou Mansion to eat in the side hall.
The kitchen began to prepare lunch early in the morning, today's menu was prepared yesterday, after Mei's prepared the dishes, Guan Shi was not at ease, personally asked Mei's to see the menu, and changed a few dishes, that is, even the tea bowls for the meal were selected from the warehouse, and a set of dishes were selected and elegant.
For today's lunch, the Marquis of Guangping Mansion put a lot of thought into it, just to make Zhou Tingyu feel at home.
Shu Xiuhe politely gave up the main seat, thinking that Zhou Tingyu would resign because he was his father-in-law, but he didn't want him to let go, Zhou Tingyu lifted the hem of his clothes and sat on the main seat unceremoniously.
The smile on Shu Xiuhe's face was a little stiff at that moment, and then he thought that the person who became his son-in-law was a favored prince of the dynasty, and he was used to being favored by His Majesty, Concubine Jing and others, so he might not back down because of this, so he was relieved.
Shu Xiuhe sat on Zhou Tingyu's left hand to accompany him, and the right hand to accompany him was Shu Second Uncle Shu.
After the dish came up, he gave in, but waited until Zhou Tingyu picked up the chopsticks and took the first bite before the others moved the chopsticks.
I could hear the movement of the main hall on the side hall, and when I saw that the chopsticks were moving in the main hall, I also started to eat in the side hall.
Zhou Tingyu, as the most noble person in the audience, his every move attracted people's attention, and when he saw him eat a bite of fish, he put down his chopsticks, and Shu Xiuhe, who was sitting beside him, immediately asked: "Your Highness, but this dish is not appetizing?" ”
Zhou Tingyu shook his head, pointed to the dish and said, "Take this dish to the imperial concubine, I use it well, I think she will like it too." ”
Shu Hongxuan took a look at this dish, it is a steamed fish, simply smeared with ginger slices and steamed, with the chef's special sauce, the fish is extremely delicious, and the osmanthus with very few bone spurs is used, my sister has always disliked to eat fish with many bone spurs, but my sister likes to eat this dish every time.
He uses this well, and it's obviously a dish that his sister likes to eat.
Shu Hongxuan took a deep look at Zhou Tingyu, and suppressed the idea in his heart that he wanted to ask his sister if he was good for her, and he could remember his sister's favorite dishes when he ate, and he was really interested.
Shu Xiuhe smiled a little awkwardly, "Your Highness, the dishes we have here are also available to Hua Niang." ”
The family eats, although the table is divided, but the dishes are the same, there is no reason why Zhou Tingyu can eat fish, Hua Niang will not be able to eat it.
Will Zhou Tingyu not understand this truth? He came to make a face for Hua Niang, and the expensive gift for everyone in the Hou Mansion was to make a face, and now he is also making a face.
He just wants to make everyone in the Hou Mansion envy Hua'er, she just needs to smile happily in front of him, and the troubles are nothing more than what to eat today, what to eat tomorrow, and she doesn't have to worry about anything else.
He has everything to worry about.
Seeing Zhou Tingyu's insistence, Shu Xiuhe couldn't, so he had to wave his hand and ask people to go to the kitchen to send a brand new steamed fish to the side hall, and deliberately put it in front of Shu Yanhua.
At this time, Shu Xiuhe was still glad in his heart, fortunately, for fear of not having enough to eat, the kitchen would prepare an extra dish, and His Highness could do what he asked when he ordered it.
But then, as long as Zhou Tingyu eats a dish that he thinks is good, he will be sent over, and he also named Shu Yanhua by name, so it became Shu Yanhua's many more dishes dedicated to herself.
Shu Yanqiao's face was full of envy, Shu Yanyu was full of complicated eyes, and she bowed her head to eat without saying a word, and suddenly she was full of boredom with Xie Zhi'an's asking her out to go out to the appointment, and she was ready to wait back in the courtyard and let Da Zhuang inform him not to go to the appointment.
In the new year, I wish you all a happy new year, all the best, and whatever you want. o(n_n)o haha~
