Chapter Seventy-Three: Inviting the Moon Tower
When Wu Tingrou came to Mrs. Wu's room, she found that she was the latest to come, and Wu Tingcheng, Wu Tinghua and Wu Tingqiu had already arrived.
"The child greets his mother."
"Rou'er is here, are you all ready?"
Looking Wu Tianrou up and down, Mrs. Wu nodded slightly.
"Yes, all dressed up nicely. It's almost time, you guys go, I'll ask Lao Xin to send you to the Invitation Moon Tower, and after visiting the Lantern Festival and having dinner, just take the car back. ”
"In the evening, my lord and your eldest brother also have a party, so everyone may come back at a different time, but you must pay attention to safety and remember to come back early."
"Got it, Mother."
"Got it, aunt/ma'am."
Wu Tianrou and the sisters nodded one after another, and then at the signal of Mrs. Wu, they turned around and walked out of the room and walked towards the carriage in the front yard.
Wu Zixu has already left, Wu Yunyang has not come back yet, and it is estimated that Mrs. Wu will have to leave later.
The four of them came to the carriage and entered the carriage in turn, as for the four maids, they followed the carriage on foot, anyway, this time the Invitation Moon Tower was not far away, and it only took less than two quarters of an hour for the carriage to walk slowly.
At this time, the time is almost unitary, and the sun is beginning to set, and the streets illuminated by the red sunset are full of orange and red, and it is very brilliant.
Wu Tianrou and the four of them sat in the carriage, and they also laughed and said a few words, and the atmosphere was harmonious for a while.
Two quarters of an hour later, the carriage came to the gate of the Invitation Moon Tower, Wu Tianrou took the lead and stepped out of the carriage, and just stood firmly, he saw a carriage coming quickly.
"Xiaorou, you're here too!"
A cry of joy came, and it turned out to be Du Rong who had arrived.
"Rong'er, I also just arrived, these are my three younger sisters, cousin Wu Tingcheng, sister-in-law Wu Tinghua and Wu Tingqiu."
Seeing Wu Tingcheng and the three of them walking to his side, Wu Tingrou introduced to Du Rong.
"This is Du Rong, Du Shilang's daughter."
"Hello Miss Du, we met last time on the old lady's 60th birthday."
Wu Qingcheng stepped forward and nodded with a light smile.
"Yes, we met, but these two sisters didn't see each other, we didn't sit together at the time, so we may not be impressed."
Du Rong smiled generously and nodded towards Wu Chengcheng and the others.
A few people talked and laughed and walked into the Invitation Moon Building. There are three floors in this Yueyue Building, and today it has been taken over by the lord of Qianqian, and all the ladies have gone up to the third floor, where the view is wide, and it is best to watch the performance.
It happens that the dragon and lion dance troupes parade through the street will pass by this side.
"Xiaorou, Rong'er, this way, this way!"
As soon as a few people walked up to the third floor, Liu Ruyan's voice came, Wu Tianrou looked up, and saw Liu Ruyan sitting at a table near the window, waving at them.
There are many tables upstairs, nearly twenty tables, and at this time, some of the tables are sitting in twos and threes, chatting quietly.
Wu Tingrou and Du Rong walked to Liu Ruyan's side, the three of them sat together, and on the table next to them, Wu Tingcheng, Wu Tinghua and Wu Tingqiu sat down.
Several people sat together and talked for a while, and after a cup of tea, there was a commotion at the staircase, and everyone turned their heads to look, and saw several young ladies walking up with the county lord of Qianqian in their arms.
"Lord Qianqian is here!"
All the young ladies stood up and bowed to the county lord of Qianqian.
"Let's all sit down, today is the holiday, let's talk and laugh, eat and drink together."
smiled and waved his hand to the young ladies, and with a sweep of his eyes, he saw Wu Tianrou sitting by the window.
Declined a few young ladies who wanted to invite the county lord of Qianqian to sit together, the county lord of Qianqian walked directly to Wu Tianrou's side and sat down.
"You're here early, this location is good, and the scenery below is clear at a glance."
"Or will you choose a place, directly choose this Yueyue Tower, the lantern festival is not far from this street market, wait a moment when the dragon and lion dance team passes by, you can also watch it here, good eye."
Pursing her lips and smiling, Wu Tianrou stretched out her thumb towards the county lord of Qianqian.
"Haha, that's it! Didn't you see it, originally my brother still wanted to choose Yingyue Tower, but in the end, I chose it, so they could only go to Wenyuan Tower. Although it is claimed to be the first floor of Ankyung, it is farther away from the street market where the lantern festival is located. ”
Thinking of the unwilling look on his eldest brother Situ Junchu's face, the county lord of Qianqian couldn't help but smile.
"Hehe, county lord, this place is good, the tofu skin buns here, the ham stewed elbow, the rouge goose breast, the peach kernel mountain chicken and their Yipin tofu, all of them are my favorite food!"
Looking at the county lord of Qianqian with bright eyes, Du Rong looked forward to it.
"I don't know what delicious food the county lord ordered? I didn't even eat dinner, so I was just waiting for a meal. ”
"Haha! You are Du Rong, you are really, the same as Xiaorou said, you like to eat so much. ”
was amused by Du Rong's appearance, and the county lord waved his hand.
"Don't worry, I've ordered all the specialties you like, and I'm guaranteed to make you enjoy it."
"Great, you're so nice, county lord!"
As soon as she heard that she had ordered everything she liked to eat, Du Rong was immediately excited.
"But I've heard that Mrs. Du seems to have been supervising you to lose weight, if you let go of eating, will you have to drink rice soup for a few more days when you go back?"
Seeing Du Rong's excited eyes, the county lord of Qianqian deliberately poured a basin of cold water.
"Huh? ……”
A little dumbfounded, looking at the county lord of Qianqian, and Wu Tianrou and Liu Ruyan, who were holding back their laughter, Du Rong's face suddenly drooped, and his face was depressed.
"Why does even the county lord know that I want to lose weight, alas!"
"Haha! Teasing you, this Lantern Festival is also very good, I have already ordered it to be prepared, you can let it go. What are you afraid of if you are fat, besides, you are not particularly fat, but I heard the emperor and the queen say, you are blessed, what kind of fat to lose! ”
Looking at Du Rong's frustrated appearance, the county lord of Qianqian couldn't help but laugh, and patted her shoulder while laughing.
"Hey, hey! Thank you, county lord, then I can finally eat boldly and confidently tonight. Don't laugh at it, I just like to eat, and I've been tossing to death for weight loss lately. ”
Knowing that she could eat enough tonight, Du Rong immediately laughed happily again, and the pair of apricot cat's eyes released blue light again.
The county lord of Qianqian waved his hand, called the maid, and ordered him to go down and arrange the food. Now the time is just right, and after eating, it is time for the dragon and lion dance team to arrive.
After watching the dragon and lion dance team, if you want to go to the lantern festival, everyone will go together.
As the maid went down to order the food to be served, plates of dishes were served, and the happiest one among them was Du Rong. (To be continued.) )
