Xicheng East Street, Baifu Street to the end, from Geng Ming's fish shop, is nothing more than a three-mile road, and it doesn't take much time.

The narrow alley at the entrance is not as wide as many gates, almost the width of three carriages running side by side, and the passage of the entrance has been swept spotless at an early age.

Walking along the narrow alley, the houses supported by tall beams and columns give people a feeling of having a unique hole, garden rockeries, pavilions and buildings, all are indispensable.

However, it is already covered with snow, and it is not a good view.

Feng Chun stared at the gate for a long time, he hadn't worn such formal clothes and leather boots for a long time, and he was still a little uncomfortable.

The snow that had been swept up soon filled the stone staircase at the entrance, and the food that had been heated twice was cold, and the chef finally couldn't help but get out of the back kitchen and asked, "Master, how long will it take to get to the table!" ”

Banquet?

In fact, it is not a special banquet, and the preparations are just some ordinary family banquets, mapo tofu, back to the pot meat, dry roasted fish, stir-fried bamboo shoots and other home-cooked dishes, although it is a family banquet, but today's chefs in the Hou Mansion are obviously more diligent than when the guests come to the door.

When have you ever seen Master Hou invite someone to come to the door, and I have to look left and right at the gate, waiting for this guest to come to the door.

Obviously, this is the first time that the eldest girl has been on the sedan chair, so the people in the Hou Mansion seem to attach great importance to it.

Looking at the narrow alley that was not very transparent, Feng Chun's face was more or less lost, and said, "Don't worry, don't worry, it's still early, maybe she still needs to freshen up." Girls, you have to take care of it more or less when you go out. This is the way it should be, not in a hurry. There is no hurry..."

Having said that, his face was obviously pale, his full lips had dried and turned white for some time, and his slightly trembling hand subconsciously held the wine jug on his waist.

It's a natural reaction to the irritability and anxiety of waiting for someone, but wanting to drink is a habit that has been cultivated for many years.

Feng Yong followed Feng Chun's eyes and looked from a distance in the narrow alley, carrying a big tree broom on his shoulder, obviously. No matter how much they sweep the snow, they still can't win the snowflakes flying in the sky.

He stepped forward and said, "Dad, do you want the child to come over and take a look, in case the sister can't be invited, the child can also persuade him." ”

This sister is naturally Feng Yulan.

Originally, Feng Chun was going to invite Qiao Yue over in person, but he was persuaded by the people in the house in the morning, as a father, where did he have the reason to invite his daughter in person. It is reasonable to do this, otherwise, it will become a joke of the whole world.

Originally, it was planned to arrange for Wednesday and Wujie to go to invite them in person. But Feng Yulan came up on her own initiative.

Therefore, for the sake of Feng Yulan's filial piety, where does Feng Chun still have a reason to refuse.

He said, "Your sister went in person." It's useless if you go. ”

Wednesday scolded the person who was clearing the snow and walked over and said, "Master." No hurry, no hurry. The eldest lady is out of the palace this time, and the familiar people in the fish shop haven't seen each other for a while, so I should say some confidant words, let's wait with peace of mind. ”

"Hehe..."Feng Chun was still staring at the alleyway at the entrance, and said, "Don't worry, I'm not in a hurry..."

However, his anxious expression, and the slightly white knuckles pinching the door frame, showed that he was really in a hurry.

Wujie walked out of the courtyard inside the gate, probably because he hadn't been to the capital for a long time, and he was already drunk.

He staggered in front of Feng Chun, and said dissatisfiedly: "Master Hou, how can the eldest lady be so ignorant, you are her own father, your own father summoned, then there is a reason not to hurry, the eldest lady will come over later, I, as an uncle and elder, should be reprimanded, the third brother is really, since he has been following the eldest lady, how can he be so impolite, in my opinion, this matter should be attributed to the third brother." ”

"Hehe... No hurry, no hurry. Feng Chun chuckled again, his eyes never left the alley where he entered the door, and said, "You can't talk nonsense, Yue'er has suffered a lot outside over the years, so what's the matter if I, the father, wait for her?"

By the way, the gift is ready, this is the first time I have given her a gift, but there can be no mistakes. ”

"Haha..."Wujie laughed, "The five cities of Beiyuan have already replied, they already know this eldest lady, from now on, she is the most noble princess of the entire Dashun Dynasty, what is it if the Liu family has a royal family..."

Feng Chun's face was slightly dissatisfied, and he scolded: "You can't talk nonsense, we have fallen too far behind, and today's world can't be compared with eighteen years ago, by the way, how is the arrangement for meeting the emperor tomorrow, but did you tell the emperor that I want to take Yue'er back to the house?" ”

Wujie staggered and snorted, and said disapprovingly: "Where do you need to pay so much attention to some small things, I heard that Liu Wude is taking Shang Xu to open the knife recently, and I don't know what he thinks, Shang Xu is his most powerful pillar, it seems that it is really a rabbit and a dead dog, a bird is hidden, and the bridge is demolished across the river!" ”

Feng Chun didn't bother to pay attention to these nonsense of the five rings, the time was getting closer and closer to noon, and a pair of slightly sad eyes stared at the deep alleyway, and his heart became more and more nervous.

The food and drinks prepared in the main room have already been taken down and heated for the third time, and at this time, the banquet is just right, and the seasonings are already very delicious.

When Feng Chunzheng, who had stretched his neck and was a little sore, was so nervous that his thoughts were restless, there was finally movement in the depths of the lane.

A girl's voice that was so aggrieved that people were very heartbroken came from the depths of the alley: "Dad, Dad, she bullies people, bullies people..."

The voice was very long, and the sobbing sorrow was hated as long as he heard this voice, who, who dared to bully the pearl of the Hou Ye's palm like this!

Until the eyeballs almost fell off in anticipation, the person who came out was not Qiao Yue at all, but Feng Yulan, who was tall and slender, and there was a small black mole looming on the bridge of her nose.

This made Feng Chun feel greatly disappointed.

Ignoring Feng Yulan's crying, he continued to look behind Feng Yulan, and after a while. He said, "Why are you the only one coming back?" ”

Yes! Why are you the only one who came back? He didn't care about why Feng Yulan cried so aggrieved for the first time.

Feng Yulan's eyes were already red and swollen from crying, and she heard Feng Chun's question. She was worried in her heart, and she was a little weak-hearted. She squinted her eyes and quietly glanced at Feng Chun, and hurriedly threw herself into his arms and said coquettishly: "Dad, don't you love your daughter?" My daughter has been bullied like this, look, look, she has beaten her face like this! ”

Feng Chun came back to his senses and stared, and sure enough, there were five deep palm marks on both sides of Feng Yulan's face.

He frowned slightly. Pity said: "I'm sorry for you, Lan'er, doesn't she want to come?" ”

Hearing Feng Chun say this, Feng Yulan's crying voice became even louder, at least people across the street could hear her aggrieved sobs.

She took out a thin handkerchief and wiped her tears, and said pitifully: "Dad, she said that she doesn't know you, she has nothing to do with you, please don't bother her in the future." Otherwise, she would have killed her daughter. ”

While speaking, Feng Yulan carefully observed Feng Chun's expression, afraid that Feng Chun would not believe it. She hurriedly called the little guy who had gone to deliver the invitation together just now and said, "Dad, you see, not only the child has been beaten. She won't let go of even her subordinates..."

"Hey~" Feng Chun sighed, looking at Feng Yulan in his arms guiltily. "That's it, that's it. In that case, let's eat! ”

Feng Yulan was still a little dissatisfied, and said angrily: "Dad, the child was beaten by her, you can't just forget it, you have to call the shots for the child!" ”

As the saying goes, the snake is followed by the stick, and I have to say that Feng Yulan has played this trick to the fullest!

Feng Chun's face was bitter, and his face was full of melancholy: "Since this is the case, then you should fight for your father, since you are doing things for your father, you have been wronged, it is okay for your father to apologize for her, you really can't get angry, you can fight back for your father." ”

Having said that, Feng Chun's face did not look like a loving father at all, but was stunned and full of loss.

Feng Yulan continued to be coquettish: "If you don't do it, why don't you do it!" It was she who beat the child, and the child would have to get it back, otherwise, she really thought that the people in our Hou Mansion were easy to bully, you must know that this time she dared to beat the child, and next time she would really dare to beat you. ”

Feng Chun's face twitched slightly, Feng Yulan's words seemed to make him perceive something, he stared at her, and said sternly: "What if she beats her father, but her father wishes she would have beaten her, but unfortunately, she is afraid that she is not even willing to beat her father...

Don't mention this matter again, otherwise, don't blame your father for not sparing you..."

What a character Feng Chun is, if it weren't for Feng Yulan's constant grasp, he wouldn't have noticed anything, but now, he has more or less discovered something wrong.

Qiao Yue is her biological daughter, Feng Yulan is his adopted daughter, if Qiao Yue comes to the Hou Mansion smoothly, then everything that originally belonged to Feng Yulan will be taken away by Qiao Yue, and a woman's heart and eyes will never be big.

It was just in the blink of an eye that the moment he found out that something was wrong with Feng Yulan, Feng Chun had already figured out everything in his mind.

It seems that the injury on her face, as well as Qiao Yue's non-coming, is not as simple as Feng Yulan said.

"Hmph..."He snorted coldly, pushed Feng Yulan, who was still crying with pear blossoms and rain, out of his arms, turned around, and said to Wujie, who was still sympathetic to Feng Yulan's experience and angry Qiao Yue, "Immediately transfer the Tianxiu Palace to Qiao Yue's name!" It was Magnolia's apology for offending her. ”

The majesty of his voice, the kind of majesty that is rare and cannot be changed.

Suddenly, even Wujie and Feng Yulan, who were still a little drunk, had stiff faces, and they didn't understand how Feng Chun could make such a decision.

Without waiting for Wujie and Feng Yulan to come back to their senses, Feng Chun flicked his sleeves fiercely, and entered the Hou Mansion in a blink of an eye.

Today should have been a very happy day, but I didn't expect the failure of the matter to happen when he asked Feng Yulan to invite Qiao Yue.

The fault is not Feng Yulan, but him.

"Hehe... I should have gone in person, I should have gone in person, as a father, her biological father, what if I went to invite her in person, did I lose face?

Feng Chun, Feng Chun, how could you even think about this matter so inconsiderately. ”

Feng Chun muttered, walked less than twenty steps into the gate, and suddenly, he turned around sharply and shouted, "On Wednesday, the two of us will personally go and invite." ”

After speaking, Feng Chun turned around and walked directly towards the depths of the alleyway.

Only Feng Yulan stood there with a resentful and vicious look in her eyes.

Yes, she hated Qiao Yue, what she was afraid of finally came, the Tianxiu Palace that she had begged for a long time and couldn't get it, and now it was so inexplicable that it wanted to become Qiao Yue's industry.

She hates Qiao Yue, she has never been personally invited by Feng Chun, how can she enjoy this qiē, she Qiao Yue, a woman who sells fish, a cheap woman who has been a little wife. It's just a person, how can you use the proximity of a dignified and mighty marquis.

When Feng Chun's figure had disappeared into the alleyway, Feng Yulan gradually came back to her senses, looked back at the red-faced Wujie, and said, "Fifth uncle, you won't give her the Tianxiu Palace, we have already agreed, this should be mine?" ”

As soon as her tired voice stopped, a very cold wind blew, blowing snowflakes all over the sky and beating him in the face.

Wujie shuddered, and the wine that had already been on his head seemed to wake up in an instant, and he laughed busily, chased in the direction where Feng Chun left, and said, "What, what, what did you say?" Drunk, drunk, your fifth uncle and I are drunk..."

…

The fish shop in the middle of Momofuku Street has opened its doors and opened for business as normal, and the boss Youxi's sign has been taken down.

The carriage with the yellow cloth parked outside the door was long gone.

"Knock knock..."

From time to time, there was the sound of a blunt knife slashing on the board.

Other than that, it is not a wide fish shop, and it seems unusually quiet.

It was very neat, and the three people of uneven height all stood in front of the board to chop fish, and no one shouted hungry even when it was time to eat.

The board was covered in bright red fish blood, but no one cleaned it, and they were all chopping live fish from the bucket.

Liu Xing had just chopped a live fish into slag, and when she turned around to catch the fish in the bucket, she found that all the fish that came in yesterday had been chopped by them.

She said dissatisfiedly: "Geng Nursing Yuan, go to the Dongque Gate to bring in five hundred catties of fresh fish and come back..."

As soon as her voice stopped, the fish knife in Geng Huyuan's hand was thrown on the board with a clatter, and she turned around and walked directly towards the door of the store.

Halfway through, he stopped, and said gloomily: "The next time I see that vicious woman, I will cut her directly!" ”

Liu Xing's voice came from inside the shop: "You useless thing, you don't need to do it, I'll cut it directly." ”

At this time, a warm man's voice came from outside the shop: "The meal is ready, let's go over and eat!" ”

Dine?

All three looked at the man who was speaking. (To be continued......)
