Chapter 11: The Storm Rises Again
Aunt Liu secretly gritted her teeth and thought about the situation, because the Hu family and Jin Xiu and his wife were very happy to see each other, naturally no one paid attention. Mother Yang on the side saw it in her eyes and was silent.
In the evening, due to the family reunion, Jinyu proposed to Master Gao to cancel Shen Rong's grounding, and sent someone to Linglong Garden to bring a letter, ordering Aunt Wu and Red Lotus Green Branch to accompany Shen Fang to attend the family banquet.
Knowing that the ban was lifted, Shen Rong was extremely happy, and for a while she hurriedly asked Green Wen to sort out the cage for her, took out the beautiful dress at that time, and repeatedly considered the left one and the right one. She is determined to dress up beautifully at the family banquet, and it is best to overshadow Jinyu in the limelight, so that Master Gao can see who is the most outstanding. In addition, it is also good for sister-in-law Kang to see, even if she doesn't have the clothes she brought back from the capital, she can still dress herself up very well. Receiving Kang's gift, Shen Rong lost her temper. On the spot, he smashed the inkstone, which was said to be of great value, to the ground. If it weren't for Zhao's mother appearing in time, Shen Rong would have been eager to rush out and talk to Kang's theory. Seeing Shen Rong rummaging through the cages, Lu Yi, who was following alongside, couldn't help but persuade in a low voice: "Miss, today is just a family banquet, will Miss dress like this, will it be too luxurious?" I'm afraid that the master doesn't like it. As soon as he finished speaking, he was slapped in the face by Shen Rong. Eat a little slut who crawls inside and out. Don't you see that I'm stronger than Jinyu? Why doesn't the lord like me? Not because of her? You're with me now, and you're still looking for her? Lu Yi cried unbearably and was kicked out by Shen Rong: "Don't mourn here with me, give me some bad luck all day long!" Mother Zhao couldn't help but sneer on the side, but she didn't say a word.
Shen Fang was overjoyed when she learned the news of her eldest brother's return. Seeing the pot of rare green peonies again, I was especially grateful to the eldest brother's heart. For a while, because of the high spirits, I actually got much better. In the evening, I didn't need to be supported, I brought my own red lotus and green branches, and I wanted to thank my eldest brother and sister-in-law in person.
The family banquet was held in Hancui Hall. Master Gao was relieved to see that Hu Shenfang had been able to get up. Because they are all reunited with their own families, they are all gathered in the same room regardless of gender. Mr. and Mrs. Gao sat on the top, accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. Jinxiu, and Jinmin was also found by Jinyu, sitting in the farthest position from Mr. Gao, and Jinyu also went early, because she was also responsible for coordinating the kitchen and the people serving here, she didn't dare to be lazy. Shen Fang was accompanied by two girls, and was pulled by Hu's side, comforting each other with soft words. The relationship between the two has eased a lot so far. Aunt Liu also came very early, but due to the limitations of her identity, she could not go on stage, but just stood behind Mr. and Mrs. Gao and waited at any time. They all arrived, and there was only Shen Rong, but they hadn't seen it for a long time. The hearts of Master Gao and the others were on fire, and Aunt Liu was secretly anxious. Jinyu sent someone to urge, and the person who went back and forth was there, and the eldest lady would arrive immediately.
The lights in the yard began to light one after another, and the kitchen came to ask if it could be served. Just when Master Gao couldn't help but slap the table, a pleasant sound of the piano sounded, but he saw a beautiful woman holding a moon qin, playing and walking, and gradually came to Hancuitang. When Master Gao heard the sound of the piano, there was a moment of confusion on his face, and when he saw the beautiful woman playing the piano, he couldn't help but praise the word "good". Kang's face was disdainful, and he said softly: "The carving insect skills, also come to show off." But Jin Xiu beside him gently pulled his sleeve and was silent. It was Shen Rong who came. She heard Master Gao's appreciation, and leaned over to thank her. While continuing to play the piano in his hand, when the song was over, Fang respectfully said to Master Gao: "Daddy, my brother and sister-in-law are coming from afar, and the child has no gifts to greet him, so I will give it to each other with the right to meet with this song!" Listening to her crisp and beautiful voice, coupled with her graceful posture, and the superb piano performance just now, Master Gao couldn't help but feel a little less disgusted with her in the past. He Yan said: "It's good to come, let's take a seat!" Shen Rong was overjoyed, and ordered Yueqin to put the green veins away, and walked to his place. Master Gao sat next to Jin Xiu and his wife, and Hu Shi was Shen Fang, she didn't want to sit next to Kang, so she had to sit at the end of Jin Min's side. This sitting down reminded her of infinite grievances. She has always been loved by Master Gao, and she sits next to Master Gao every time. Jin Min Jinyu has always sat in the last place where the old man does not pay attention. Now that the roles have been reversed, Shen Rong only feels full of grievances, but she doesn't dare to show it. Aunt Liu fell into a surprise again because of Shen Rong's performance just now. She said, how could her Shen Rong be easily compared to Jinyu.
During the banquet, Master Gao and Jin Xiu talked about some of the customs of the capital, and the ups and downs of officialdom, which was also lively, while Hu and Shen Fang talked about how to maintain their bodies, and Kang pulled Jinyu to guide her on various accessories. Only Shen Rong sat alone, she didn't want to pay attention to people, and many people didn't want to pay attention to her. Jin Min ate perfunctorily. He was bent on eating well and fleeing quickly, lest Master Gao suddenly rise up and ask him about his homework.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Master Gao looked at the family members who were reunited, remembering the busy and busy period ago, and now he can finally settle down, and he can't help but breathe a sigh of relief. The eldest son has already started a family, although he is far away in the capital, but he is down-to-earth and motivated, and he hardly has to worry about it. Although the youngest son did not finish his studies, he did not cause trouble for himself in the end. If you do your duty, you will not starve to death if you keep this business in the future. The three daughters Shen Rong are outstandingly beautiful and talented, although they have not been married for the time being, they will never worry about getting married; Jinyu is generous and talented, she is an authentic lady, and she will definitely not have to worry about herself when she comes to the Zhang family in the future. Although Shen Fang is weak, he actually has a good family like the Bai family to make a decision, which shows that everyone has their own blessings. Master Gao was imagining with infinite joy, but was interrupted by an exclamation.
"Master, it's not good, the green girl in the eldest lady's room has found a short time!" The one who came to report was a small guy on the second door. His face was full of panic and his words were incoherent. When Master Gao heard this, he couldn't help but be shocked, and in anger, he suddenly couldn't get up in one breath and fell to the ground. Hu Shi and Jin Xiu hurriedly helped them up to rescue. Jinyu also immediately ordered someone to ask for a doctor. On the other hand, he asked people to hold the little guy and ask Lu Yi how she is now. Shen Rong sat there, half of her body shaking. muttered to himself: "No, no, it's not me, it's not me", Kang Shi saw it, and didn't say much, and ordered the people around him to pull her to the back hall. Shen Fang was sent back to Linglong Garden by the red lotus green branch assigned by the Hu family as soon as possible.
