Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Cake of Fruit Cake (Part II)
It was rude to cry at someone else's birthday banquet, and the relatives of the woman in colorful clothes couldn't persuade her, so they had to hurriedly confess their guilt, and half-pulled and half-pulled the person who had been crying out.
"It's finally quiet!" Du Shaonan smiled at this time, "The filth was driven away by the grandson, and the ancestor will definitely live to be a hundred years old." He raised his glass to his grandmother.
"Good ...... ...... obediently, "Old Madam Li is obviously very doting on this grandson.
The other female guests saw that the scene eased, and the organic spirit took the opportunity to say auspicious words, making the atmosphere more lively, many female guests had heard of Du Xiaobawang's name earlier, and they only saw it with their own eyes today, but this young prince only spoke because of those women against Miss Liu, is it ......
Thinking like this, many people's eyes can't help but look at Liu Yiyi and Du Shaonan, and the reactions of the two are not the same, Liu Yiyi has been quietly bowing her head to eat, eating extremely ladylike, which really makes people suspect that the rude words of the daughter of the Liu family are spread by someone else.
Du Shaonan is completely different from Liu Yiyi, whoever looks at him will look back generously, no matter whether the other party is forty or fifty years old or seventeen or eighteen years old, the former can still be calm when he is seen by him, and the latter is all blushing and bowing his head, and he doesn't dare to take the chopsticks.
Mrs. Li didn't say that her grandson was rude to stare at the daughters of other people's houses before leaving the cabinet, but sighed: "Shaonan is eighteen years old, it's time to marry a daughter-in-law to inherit the Du family." ”
"I don't know which daughters the queen chose for Shaonan...... "Mrs. Hu has the same heart with her mother-in-law, and her son should consider holding her grandson when she grows up."
"Don't talk about me first, Yu Xiao is a month older than me, and if you want to choose, you have to come before him!" Du Shaonan led the topic to others, and by the way, he put the last egg dumpling on the plate in his own bowl, and he could eat at the same table with Lin Yuxiao and get delicious food, which required skill.
"Yu Xiao's marriage has to be arranged by the Queen Mother, and we can't be the master." Mrs. Hu's words were a little sour, and her son's age seemed to be robbing her daughter-in-law with her, the queen mother pressed the queen, and the girls from good families were not allowed to be picked by the Lin family first.
Mrs. Li endured it and didn't give a glance at her daughter-in-law, this is a short-sighted and ignorant woman, if it weren't for the fact that she gave birth to Shaonan, the Guogong Mansion would have no place for her.
"Yu Xiao is outstanding, the Queen Mother really has to work hard to pick a worthy one, I don't know what kind of beauty you want to choose, Yu Xiao?" Old Madam Li personally gave Lin Yuxiao a chopstick dish and asked with a smile.
The old lady asked, not only Liu Yiyi, but also the other women couldn't care about pretending to be a lady anymore, and their eyes were fixed on the main seat.
Lin Yuxiao's smile remained unchanged: "The woman I'm looking for, first of all, looks pleasing to my eyes, secondly, she must have a good temper, and she will resolutely not want to make her petty unreasonable at every turn, and secondly, she can't be brainless, others will be fooled when they are provoked, and it will not be okay to follow if they are coaxed, and finally there must be no evil deeds, and they must have a good character, such as not being good at gambling and not having a long tongue, that's all." ”
"That's all?" Du Shaonan was surprised, "What about qin, chess, calligraphy and painting?" What about laundry and cooking? ”
"That's a very small thing, it doesn't matter what it does to play the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, I can teach, laundry and cooking are not needed, and I can't afford to support my wife and children? The key is that people have their duty, and they have to go out twice in three days to cause trouble for me, so why don't I do anything else? And although I am rich, but when I meet a good gambler, I lose 100,200,000 yuan, and how much money I have is in short supply. Lin Yuxiao replied very seriously.
Du Shaonan thought about it seriously and agreed: "You are right, marry a wife and marry a virtuous man, and there are few good wives and husbands in the family, which is the most important thing." ”
"They're all sensible kids." Mrs. Li smiled and gave her grandson a chopstick dish, and the young people could consider anything other than beauty, which really pleased the elders.
"How can you do these alone, the door is right, the small door and small household can't get on the table, the Du family will never want it!" Lin Yuxiao doesn't care how Mrs. Hu is, but the woman her son is looking for, her mother's family must be able to help her son.
"Mother...... Since he is marrying a good wife, how can he not be on the stage. Seeing that his grandmother's face changed a little, Du Shaonan hurriedly explained with a smile, and at the same time kicked Lin Yuxiao under the table, so that you don't come to eat.
Lin Yuxiao helped this time, he whispered a few words to Mrs. Li, and made today's hostess smile, and he didn't know that he thought this was his own ancestor and grandson.
The birthday banquet finally ended happily, because Du Xiaobawang obviously expressed his displeasure with saying right and wrong, and then no one looked for Liu Yiyi's stubble, at most everyone should not exist when she didn't exist, which was acceptable to Liu Yiyi, who let these people she really didn't know, if she really wanted a sister to come up, she didn't know how to answer.
The maids were eating outside in another place, and as soon as the host's table was dispersed, the people were busy greeting their respective ladies and ladies to wait, and Ying'er was a little walking and jumping, and when she came over, she said excitedly: "Miss, I heard that ......"
"Let's go back, sir?" Knowing what she was going to say, Liu Yiyi hurriedly stopped her, they have a lot of eyes and ears around them now!
“…… The old man ...... in front, "Ying'er still wanted to say something, but Liu Yiyi walked too fast, and she had to follow closely, so she didn't care about what to say."
When I saw Mr. Liu, Mr. Liu just let him go home in the sedan chair first, and sat down in the living room at home. ”
"Master, don't you know that Miss dares to bully her inside! Fortunately, Du Xiaobawang ...... "Ying'er held back all the way, and finally waited for the master to ask, and she rushed in front of the young lady to tell what happened in the inner hall.
In fact, Ying'er was not present at the time, and she couldn't even repeat what bad things the other party said about Liu Yiyi, what Young Master Du said, she clearly relayed it, and the identities of the two women who said right and wrong, the older one was the eldest lady of the Yang family, the younger one was the daughter of the Shi family who cried in public, and the middle-aged lady who retired with them was the lady of the Shi family.
The reason why Liu Yiyi was so talkative was because she wanted to know the identity of the people who couldn't get along with her at the banquet, the three women were reprimanded in public by Young Master Du and made an ugly appearance, and they couldn't afford to offend the princess, so it was very likely that the account would be recorded on her again, and she always had to understand the details of the enemy.
The Yang family and the Shi family are two families, but the two young women look a little alike, she began to think that they were sisters, and now she thinks that they should be cousins, but why is the other party targeting her so much, she still doesn't know the reason? It is estimated that "Liu Yiyi" beat their family's children.
"What you said was what you saw with your own eyes?" After Ying'er finished speaking, Master Liu asked with a straight face.
“…… No, it was the maid who listened to what the servants of the Du family said in and out, but the maid saw Miss Shi came out crying...... "Speaking of this Ying'er, I'm happy, dare to bully her young lady, she deserves it!"
"That's ...... Then go down to the steward and get the punishment. Master Liu waved his hand impatiently.
"Yes! Mr. Xie...... Get fined!? "Shouldn't it be a reward? Ying'er thought that the old man was wrong.
"Hearsay is so excited, if it weren't for the master to stop you, wouldn't you be yelling in Du Mansion, for fear that others won't know that your young lady is being bullied? Which of the people's loyal protectors is like you, you can't find anyone at a critical time, and you can't talk nonsense when you shouldn't speak! If you dare to do this again, the master will have to sell you to the north to clear the wasteland! Master Liu slapped the table, and the table shook loudly.
Ying'er was frightened: "The master spared the servant!" The servant doesn't dare anymore! "Before, Master Liu was punished, but he never said that he would sell any of the people in the house to do coolies, Ying'er became the first, and she was afraid that the master would cut her.
"In the future, keep your mouth shut, control your legs, remember your identity, if Miss Master doesn't tell you, don't make your own decisions! Go down and receive your punishment. "This time, Master Liu is just a lesson, he is also kind-hearted and gives people time to change.
Ying'er didn't dare to say anything more, bowed her head and left the living room backwards, and her appearance was more polite and polite, which made Liu Yiyi breathtaking.
Yahuan went out, Master Liu's eyes turned to Liu Yiyi, Liu Yiyi immediately sat upright, although Master Liu would not sell his daughter, but she was a little afraid of him now, the old man Liu described in the novel smiled at everyone, she saw Master Liu training people with a straight face, which scared Ying'er and scared her.
"Being provoked by others in public, you didn't go up to beat the other party's head and broke the blood, rare, rare." Master Liu's tone couldn't tell whether it was a compliment or a question.
“…… I wanted to fight, but it was the birthday banquet of the queen's grandmother, and I couldn't help but move it, and now it should be our Liu family who is being talked about. So she suppressed her subconscious impulses.
"You can think before you act, and you are really sensible." Master Liu's words are clearly complimenting.
"It's all taught by my father." Liu Yiyi breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's good not to be impulsive, but do you know why the Yang family and the Shi family are targeting you?" Master Liu asked again.
Liu Yiyi looked up at his father in this life, Master Liu is very fat and white, this white and fat is not smiling, but he is also amiable, not to mention his doting on his daughter, she has personally experienced it - calling the emperor's name is only an understatement or two.
Yiyi can't remember clearly...... "Who knows if it was the son of the Yang family or the Shi family who was beaten by "Liu Yiyi", or both? It's not so much wrong as not remembering.
"The son of the Shi family drank in the restaurant the year before last, drank too much and touched the little girl who sang twice, so that you saw it and discounted the other party's hand, how many good things did Dad say to others before this matter passed, did you forget?" Old Man Liu glanced at his white daughter.
Discounted hand ...... It's really ruthless...... "He flirted with a woman from a good family...... "The public is like this, it's hard to say behind the scenes, although it is ruthless, it may not be that it shouldn't be beaten."
In fact, he also thinks that the Shi family should be cleaned up...... Master Liu didn't mention the Shi family again, "As for the Yang family, you didn't beat anyone, the Yang family just received the letter from the murderer, fortunately, thanks to the protection of Lord Qincha, there was no accident, but the old lady of the Yang family didn't dare to go out again, Miss Yang went to the banquet with her aunt who married into the Shi family, why did she target you, you really don't know?" ”
