Chapter 357: Introduction
Xinren's health is not good, and he and Jing Hao are about the same age, so they are still married.
At the head of Nobuhito sat a girl, who was Mu Dan's half-sister named Qing'er. She is only fourteen years old this year, and she lived with her grandmother in the pasture in the early years, until the old prince and Concubine Xiao passed away and the princess disappeared, she was taken back to the house. I don't know if it's because of her background, her eyes were also timid when she saluted Lin Yu, and she didn't seem to dare to speak.
The population of the palace is simple, and there are only a few brothers and sisters in total.
The old prince was also clean and self-conscious, but he didn't expect that he would be loyal to the country, but he aroused the jealousy of his father, and finally let him marry a princess from another country, and forever lost the qualification to compete for the throne. And after marrying Princess Yueshang, he also respects his wife, of course, I don't know if there is a means for Princess Yueshang here, anyway, after marrying her, there are only two women around the old prince, one is the maid who gave birth to the second prince for him, and the other is Xiao Ya, who is cherished by him, but has no heirs.
After introducing the people in the palace, Jing Hao introduced the Li family to everyone, only saying that they were Lin Yu's relatives, and they were all skilled craftsmen of Tianzhe.
Hu Shan is different from Tianzhe. If it were in Tianzhe, a craftsman like Li Youfeng would not be in the stream, but he had to do these things for his livelihood. But in Hushan, people with craftsmanship are very respected, from hand-spinning wheels to siege equipment, as long as you make things that can improve productivity, you are worthy of respect.
So after Jing Hao said that the Li family was a craftsman, everyone changed from the original polite nod to face it squarely.
After introducing the Li family, Jing Hao introduced Xiao Lan to everyone. And when she said it, she just said that she was Concubine Xiao's niece, and she didn't introduce too much, which made Xiao Lan pout dissatisfiedly, but now it is a formal occasion, she can't mess with Jing Hao because of this matter. So he bit his lip, saluted everyone unwillingly, and then stomped his feet and sat down.
After a few refreshments, the dishes in the back came up one after another.
Because the hall is large enough, the log table for eating is placed behind the seats on the left.
I saw that the two large wooden tables were covered with red swastika tablecloths, and more than a dozen exquisite dishes had been arranged. Around the table, ten round stools are placed, each tied with velvet upholstery.
Jing Hao took Lin Yu's hand and sat down, and everyone sat down in turn.
On the other side of the hall, a group of people came in and saluted, and began to sit down and play.
The so-called Zhong Ming Ding Food is also like this.
It starts with a soothing piece of music, with the servants dressed in thin clothes and playing the beautiful zheng. After the song, it was replaced with pipa, guqin, etc. Until everyone drank to the temperamental part, the outside was replaced by a melodious horse-head fiddle, and there were also female slaves wearing special costumes and dancing folk dances.
Let's say that at the beginning of the banquet, there were more than a dozen dishes, cold and hot, meat and vegetarian, and the dishes were beautiful and delicious.
Qing'er, Xiao Lan, Lin Xue, Li Yueling and a few children sat at a table, and several children were told in advance not to move around on the table, but how old are they? Even if he didn't understand the words after seeing these foods, he couldn't take his eyes off, especially the loyal soldiers of the Erkui family, who stared at the plate of flower-like pastries in front of him with his eyes, and uncontrollably let out a long saliva.
"Shhhh With this poor and sour appearance, I really doubt that the identity of this noble lady is pretending! Xiao Lan rolled her eyes in disgust, if it weren't for Jing Hao being here, she wouldn't have been wronged and sat at the same table with these people.
Li Yueling was sitting opposite Xiao Lan, and she could see and hear Xiao Lan's words of contempt. She has never been the master who is willing to suffer, but now that her family has suffered great changes, she is under the fence, and because of the relationship that Lin Yu specially mentioned before, she can't have a seizure at all, so she can only tremble with anger.
Qing'er has always been cowardly, and she can actually understand the Li family. When she was in the ranch, although she was the daughter of the prince, she never had to go back to the palace, and the big guys didn't think she was a county lord, and even said that the old prince never named her the county lord, so she didn't have a good life. When she first returned to the palace at that time, she was also greedy for everything, although she didn't get to such a rude Cheng dรน, but only she knew that she was greedy in her heart. It's just that she has been short of Xiao Lan since she was a child, don't look at her as just Concubine Xiao's niece, but she is like the princess of Coral Will, and she is overshadowed every time she comes to her side. Therefore, at this time, even if she pitied the children of the Li family, she would not dare to speak for them after Xiao Lan had just finished satirizing. I had to cast a sympathetic and powerless expression.
Lin Yu didn't know about this little episode, and with Jing Hao's voice, "Everyone move chopsticks!" "The big guys are eating one after another.
Naturally, a toast was inevitable during the banquet, and Xiao Lan finally seized the opportunity and stepped forward with a wine glass to sing a toast.
The sound of the horse-head qin is long and intoxicating, and Xiao Lan is holding the wine bottle while singing a moving tune. Because of drinking, her cheeks were a little red, and when she handed Jing Hao the wine bottle, she was infinitely shy and cute.
The Li family can understand what it means no longer being sensible at this time, especially Li Yueling, just now she despised her children like that, and now seeing her so "shameless" seducing other people's men, she didn't scold in her heart.
It's just that after all, you can't be disappointed because of yourself, even if Li Yueling and even the Li family are not satisfied, this banquet must be carried out normally.
Of course, Lin Yu also saw the embarrassment of the Li family, but she didn't have a good way to solve it at this time. Xiao Lan will definitely hate Wu and Wu, so no matter what, everyone in the Li family will not leave a good impression in front of her. Well, so be it. Therefore, Lin Yu also raised his glass and said a few auspicious words and scene words, making the current atmosphere more natural.
To Lin Yu's surprise, Xiao Lan actually proposed the idea of going to the ranch in advance here.
Subconsciously, Lin Yu glanced at Tuya.
When she first entered the mansion before, from the conversation between Jing Hao and Mu Dan, Lin Yu felt that Mu Dan should have some feelings for Xiao Lan, but she didn't expect that Mu Dan had a family. Xiao Lan brought up this stubble, Lin Yu didn't have any other ideas, but the first thing that came to mind was gossip, and she subconsciously wanted to see Tuya's expression. (To be continued.) )
