Before the feast began, when Shu Jinhua came to the main courtyard, everyone was sitting in the hall and chatting.

Shu Jinhua stepped forward to say hello one by one, but he didn't expect that Xue Canhua was actually there. The inexplicable irritability in his heart, Shu Jinhua hid it well in his heart, his face was still faint, and he said hello perfunctorily.

Shu Yue was delicate, and saw the impatience that flashed when her daughter saw Xue Canhua. When he looked at Xue Canhua again, Shu Yue's eyes were also annoying.

The elders sat in the main hall of the hall, and the only juniors who accompanied each other were the eldest cousins Chen Ke and Xue Canhua. Shu Yue'an and Shu Jinqi accompanied the other juniors of the Chen family to chat in the side room.

Old Madam Chen beckoned and let Shu Jinhua sit beside her. Holding Shu Jinhua's hands, he couldn't stop boasting.

Shu Jin's picture is not shy about the praise of Mrs. Chen, and occasionally replies with a sentence or two, which makes the old lady cover her mouth and laugh. All the elders in the hall also followed suit, and the atmosphere was extremely lively.

Mrs. Chen didn't keep Shu Jinhua for too long, and the children of the younger generation were all playing in the side, although the old lady was reluctant, she still waved her hand and asked Shu Jinhua to find her peers to play.

Shu Jinhua didn't want to see Xue Canhua, but after thinking about it, he also knew that since Xue Canhua was here, Shu Jinqin was also there. This husband and wife, she can't look at it well.

Bowing to the elders and saying goodbye, Shu Jinhua turned into the small corridor on the left side of the hall. The side room is at the end of the corridor, and before I even enter, I can already hear the laughter coming from inside.

"Sisters, what are you laughing at? Before I could get closer, I heard it. The maid at the door of the side room opened the door curtain, Shu Jinhua entered with a short body, saw everyone there, and asked with a smile.

"The fourth sister came late, and I didn't know it. The cousins were talking about what they had seen and heard in Yangzhou, and when they talked about the fun, they all laughed. Shu Jinqin, who was sitting with her, looked affectionate, and when she saw Shu Jinhua coming in, she hurriedly spoke.

Sure enough, this person who was still talking about his illness the day before yesterday and couldn't get up is sitting here alive today. Shu Jinhua's eyes flashed slightly, and then he smiled and greeted everyone, as if he didn't hear the explanation in Shu Jinqin's words.

Everyone smiled and greeted Shu Jinqin with a smile, but they didn't answer Shu Jinqin's words. Shu Jinqin smiled awkwardly, and her eyes stared at the back of Shu Jin's painting.

"I'm really sorry, I lay down for a while this time, but I didn't expect to fall asleep, sisters-in-law and sisters, don't blame." Sitting down next to Chen Ling'er, Shu Jinhua said apologetically.

"Don't say that, Scarlet, we originally entered the city early, and we had to bother you and your cousin to greet us. What's more, it's all a family, what do you say, right, sister-in-law? Chen Ling'er said with a smile, and didn't forget to turn her head and pull up her sister-in-law Mu Shi, who was sitting on the side.

Muhammad has a soft appearance and small and delicate facial features, which makes people feel comfortable to look at. The personality is also very good, in the Chen family, and the three sisters-in-law are all good.

"Ling'er is right, they are all a family, how can there be any blame and not blame." Mu smiled softly, and his voice was also soft and pleasant, "What's more, you and Jinqi were both injured, and we didn't forget to go out to greet them with our injuries, and it was too late for us to be moved." As he spoke, he casually looked at Shu Jinqin.

Shu Jinhua knew in his heart, this Mu is also a delicate and clear person, and the glances and words that he looked at Shu Jinqin were all ironic.

Shu Jinqin is not really stupid, naturally she heard it, and her heart was a little unhappy, but she couldn't show it yet, who made her family a cousin.

Chen Xi'er also said a few words, neither flattering nor flattering. Shu Jinhua has a good impression of her, she is also a concubine, and she is much more atmospheric than Shu Jinqin.

The youngest Chen Yue'er has a much more lively personality and dares to speak. Several people expressed their sincere greetings to Shu Jinqin's late arrival, and the little girl asked Shu Jinqin with an innocent face, "Is Sister Shu also injured?" Yue'er thought that you came almost noon, and she was also recuperating from your injuries. ”

Chen Yue'er's words made Shu Jinqin blush. Although she is a married daughter, there are relatives at home, and she and Xue Canhua should come over to accompany her. But she really didn't want to see Shu Jinhua, so she dragged it out again and again in Xue's mansion, and it was almost time for lunch, so she came back reluctantly.

"What nonsense Yue'er said, Sister Shu is now a married woman, of course, she has to take care of her husband's family first, and it is understandable that she will come back later." Chen Ling'er patted Chen Yue'er's forehead and said pretending to be annoyed.

Chen Yue'er covered her forehead and said with a sudden realization, "So that's the case." Then he frowned, shook Chen Ling'er and Chen Xi'er's hands pleadingly, and said, "If the third sister and the fifth sister get married in the future, they must think about their mother's family." If someone is sick and the two sisters ignore it, they will have to die of sadness! ”

Several people were amused by Chen Yue'er's expression, and Mu Shi nodded Chen Yue'er's head and said, "You little girl, you are thinking about your sister, but I, who is a sister-in-law, have I bullied you?" ”

"Oops, hey, people are wrong, sister-in-law is the best, you love others the most." Chen Yue'er hurriedly shook Mu's sleeves again, with a cute and cute face.

Everyone laughed again, but Shu Jinqin couldn't laugh if she wanted to, and several women of the Chen family squeezed her in and out of her words, how could she feel comfortable in her heart?

Shu Jinqin sat on the side, and did not interject anymore, only poured tea cup by cup, in order to lower the anger in her heart. And from time to time, when he glanced at Shu Jinhua's eyes, there was more hatred.

Everyone also revealed Fang Cai's words, and talked about various interesting stories in Yangzhou. Shu Jinqi only went to Chen's house in Yangzhou once when he was a child, and he was very interested in various local things, so he listened very carefully.

In the past three years, Shu Jinhua has often traveled north and south of the river, and Yangzhou has also been there several times. But obviously not as much as the Chen family, who is rooted in Yangzhou, knows more, and when they hear something interesting, they also interject to ask a few words.

After chatting about Yangzhou, Shu Jinqi also began to be the commentator of Tai'an City, eating, drinking and having fun, the interesting places in Tai'an City, Shu Jinqi said it again and again, and the Chen family was also full of interest.

Except for Shu Jinqin, the atmosphere between the sides is exceptionally good.

Everyone chatted happily until the maid said back and forth that lunch had been set and invited the grandmothers and ladies to eat. Only then did everyone feel that time had flown by.

went to the dining room together, the elders had just arrived, and Shu Yuan and the two cousins had just come from the verandah.

Because it was a reception banquet, there was no separate seat. Everyone sat down in order of eldest and youngest, Shu Yue, as the master, welcomed the arrival of the Chen family, and because he was a son-in-law, he gave up the seat to Mrs. Chen.

Mrs. Chen treated this eldest son-in-law as a son, and she didn't see him, and sat on the top with a smile on her face.

The lunch was very rich, and Shu Yue was afraid that the Chen family would not be used to the taste of Tai'an City, so he had already found a chef specializing in Yangzhou cuisine at the beginning of the month. A large table of dishes, placed very exquisitely, close to the Chen family, are accustomed to the taste of Yangzhou, which is mixed with a few characteristics of Tai'an City, a meal of the guests and hosts happy.

After all, Mrs. Chen is old, and she has no energy after lunch. The eldest lady Yin accompanied Mrs. Chen to rest, and Chen Qingze went back to the outer courtyard with Shu Yue, and the two had a common hobby, that is, they liked to collect calligraphy and paintings of celebrities. Shu Yue didn't know how many genuine items were hidden in his outer study, and the two of them were in high spirits, scattered the juniors, and walked away together.

The second lady, Hu Shi, seemed to know that no one wanted to talk to her, and she also turned back to the courtyard.

As soon as Hu left, the rest were all young people.

Young people are full of energy, and even if they are tired of hurrying, they are all left behind at this time. Together, they figured out how to spend the afternoon.

Among the young people, Chen Ke and Xue Canhua were the elders, and when everyone came together to think of ideas, the two sat on the other side with smiles on their faces, chatting a few words from time to time.

Shu Jinqin, who was sitting on the side, never spoke, but looked reluctant. Even though Xue Canhua was chatting with Chen Ke, he didn't ignore Shu Jinqin's obvious expression.

Xue Canhua glanced at her a few more times intentionally or unintentionally, and Shu Jinqin seemed to have noticed Xue Canhua's gaze, pursed her lips, and interjected a few times awkwardly. The little sisters didn't care, and when they saw that Shu Jinqin was willing to speak, they no longer deliberately rejected her.

In order to take care of Shu Jinqi, who has inconvenient legs, and Shu Jinhua, whose wounds have not healed, everyone just wants to have a cup of tea in the back garden and chat for a while, but Shu Jinqi and Shu Jinhua disagree. Tea and chatting are the most uninteresting, and they can be done anywhere. The two of them assured that there was absolutely no problem with the injury, and then they set their eyes on the outside of the Bachelor's Mansion.

After discussing for a long time, in the end, Shu Yu'an's mention was unanimously agreed.

As soon as they said go, everyone straightened things up a little, and took the carriage out of Beihai Lane.

The destination is not far away, just south of Hongwu Street in Beihai Lane.

The four carriages stopped at the end of Hongwu Street, and the maids cushioned the brocade pier and helped their young lady out of the carriage.

The place where the carriage stopped was a three-story building called Xiujin Pavilion. The façade is not very conspicuous, and it is actually closed at this time.

Shu Yue'an got out of the carriage, and the familiar one took the lead to knock on the door.

After knocking three times, the door was pulled open from the inside, and a handsome little girl with a small age and a double bun greeted her. Seeing that it was Shu Yu'an, he was stunned for a moment, and finally curtsied.

Shu Yu'an obviously knew this little girl, and after saying hello, he explained his intentions, and pointed to a group of people behind him.

The little girl thought for a moment, nodded, and went out to welcome everyone into the gate of Xiuzhen Pavilion.
