Chapter 63: The Wedding Banquet (II)

Ling Xiao's face barely squeezed out an embarrassed and not rude smile, he greeted his relatives and friends in the Pingyuan Marquis Mansion, last month he married a daughter and died a lady, this month he is going to marry a daughter again. This kind of impatient marriage move, in the eyes of outsiders, is that there is a big event in the Pingyuan Marquis Mansion.

What is it? There are all kinds of rumors in Yicheng, whether it is true or false, it doesn't matter, in short, he Ling Xiao has become a joke in Yicheng, but he still has to work hard to maintain the last decency at this wedding banquet, Ling Xiao can't help but feel sad in his heart.

"Father, the sedan chair for King Duan's wedding has arrived at the door, and the son will go out to greet King Duan."

Ling Xiao nodded, Ling Zhu walked out of the inner hall quickly, went to the gate, a burst of firecrackers rang out, Ling Xiao knew that King Duan had entered the door. He straightened his coat and hat with his hand, sat on a high seat, and waited for King Duan to enter the door and salute him.

He looked around, but he didn't see Leng Qiuye. It stands to reason that Miss Pingyuan Houfu is married, and Leng Qiuye can't enter the house as a concubine to accept the farewell of her son-in-law and daughter, but Jiang Shuangxue is dead, and Pingyuan Houfu is not the housewife, plus Leng Qiuye is Ling Man's biological mother, even if she comes out to send her daughter, it is reasonable.

"Xiaolan, why hasn't your aunt come out yet, the groom and the bride will say goodbye later, you go and urge her, don't delay the hour." Ling Xiao said with some displeasure.

As soon as Xiaolan left the front hall, Xiang Hongxi had already slowly walked into the front hall, and he bowed respectfully to Ling Xiao.

"My son-in-law meets my father-in-law."

"King Duan, hurry up and be exempt, and we will be a family in the future." Ling Xiao said with a smile on his face.

At this moment, Ling Xiao's heart is still happy, he used to worry that Ling Xi would not be favored, and wanted to let Ling Man enter the palace, but also for the Ling family to continue to be favored in the future, but now that Ling Xi's position is as stable as Mount Tai, Ling Man's entry into the palace is of little significance, and Ling Man became the princess, he was very satisfied.

Xiang Hongxi greeted Ling Xiao for a while, and he glanced at the back hall from time to time, looking a little anxious.

"In the future, the son-in-law will definitely take good care of the third lady, please rest assured that my father-in-law."

Xiang Hongxi expressed his loyalty, he had been thinking about Ling Man for several years, seeing that Ling Man was about to become his daughter-in-law, maybe he didn't want to wait, Xiang Hongxi didn't see Ling Man come out for a long time, he had already begun to urge Ling Xiao between his words, Ling Xiao probably understood what Xiang Hongxi meant, after all, Xiang Hongxi came to Pingyuan Marquis Mansion all these years, anyway, it wasn't to come to see him.

"Go to Yilan Courtyard to see, is this bride dressed up, don't let the new aunt wait too long." Ling Xiao said to the people beside him.

The subordinate hurriedly walked towards Yilan Courtyard, and suddenly Leng Qiuye appeared in Ling Xiao's sight, Ling Xiao was stunned, he saw Leng Qiuye holding Jiang Shuangxue's tablet, and slowly walked into the front hall, Aunt Yan followed closely behind Leng Qiuye.

Ling Xiao couldn't help but stand up, he stared at Leng Qiuye, with an incredible look, Leng Qiuye was wearing a peach-colored brocade dress today, Ling Xiao remembered that this was the clothes Leng Qiuye wore when he entered the door.

"Akiba, what are you doing here. On the big day, what are you doing holding your wife's tablet? Ling Xiao deliberately lowered his voice

Yin said, everyone outside the front hall had already been talking about it, Ling Xiao's face was extremely ugly, although he didn't know what Leng Qiuye was going to do, but he vaguely felt that something was going to happen.

Leng Qiuye ignored Ling Xiao's words, she walked straight to the main mother's seat, put Jiang Shuangxue's tablet on the main seat, and then respectfully knelt down in front of Jiang Shuangxue's tablet.

"Hou Ye, the slave family has been in this Pingyuan Hou Mansion for more than 20 years, and has been loved by the Hou Ye all his life, when he was young, the slave family did not understand the rules, pampered and arrogant, and even entered the door without kneeling for the lady to perform the concubine ceremony and Fengzheng room tea, now I want to marry my daughter, I have to let my daughter know the rules, in order to be a good princess in the Duanwang Mansion."

Bang, bang, bang, Leng Qiuye did not hesitate to kowtow to Jiang Shuangxue's tablet is three times in a row, Ling Xiaoleng was on the side, he remembered the scene when he married Leng Qiuye and entered the door, his face was bruised, and the guests outside the hall were even more ear-to-ear, he staggered, sat down on the main seat, and said nothing.

At this time, Ling Man was also walking to the front hall, she was surprised to see Leng Qiuye kneeling in front of Jiang Shuangxue's tablet like this, she immediately came to Leng Qiuye's side, and whispered: "A-Niang, what are you doing?" Today I am married, do you want to embarrass me by kneeling down to the tablet of your wife in the front hall? Don't you see people talking outside? You hurry up. ”

Ling Man was about to help Leng Qiuye up as she spoke, Leng Qiuye looked at Ling Man reluctantly, and her eyes suddenly became rosy, but she looked at Aunt Yan on the side again, she ruthlessly broke away the hands that Ling Man was holding herself, and then said loudly: "Xiaolan, serve tea." ”

Xiaolan handed a cup of tea to Leng Qiuye's hand, Leng Qiuye's tears flowed out of the corner of her eyes, she looked at the tea bowl in her hand, it seemed to weigh a thousand catties, she lifted the tea bowl above her head, and said loudly: "Concubine Leng Qiuye, serve tea to Mrs." ”

Suddenly, Ling Zhu walked to the side of the main mother's seat, he took the tea bowl in Leng Qiuye's hand with one hand, and said loudly: "I received Aunt Leng's tea for my mother." ”

Xiang Hongxi looked at the scene in front of him, his brain was about to explode, where was this still his wedding, this has become a farce of the Pingyuan Marquis Mansion, he remembered Ling Xi's words in the Imperial Garden that day, it turned out that Ling Xi was in such a hurry to let him ask for marriage, not worried that Ling Man would enter the palace, and this was to settle the new and old hatred of the Pingyuan Marquis Mansion with her.

Xiang Hongxi looked at the people who were talking outside, and he seemed to understand why Ling Xi was able to sacrifice his life to save the car when Wang Shao Palace changed, such a woman was not only bold, she was simply bold to the point of madness.

Leng Qiuye got up, she came to Ling Man's side, Ling Man couldn't care about the well-dressed makeup, originally marrying Xiang Hongxi was enough to make her aggrieved, but her wedding became a farce again, and her angry tears hung all over her face.

Leng Qiuye gently wiped away the tears on Ling Man's face with the silk handkerchief in his arms, and said in a choked voice: "Go and say goodbye to your father and mother, when you go to Duanwang's Mansion in the future, you must serve the prince well, you are luckier than A-Niang, you are the main room, no one will look down on you, you have to take care of Hua'er more in the future." ”

Tears also fell as he said Leng Qiuye

Come, Leng Qiuye immediately wiped away the tears on her face with a silk handkerchief, she turned around, blessed Ling Xiao, and said softly: "Master Hou, today Miss Pingyuan Houfu is married, and the slave family wishes Miss and Uncle a hundred years of good together." The front hall is not a place where a concubine of the slave family can stay, and the slave family has retired. ”

After speaking, Leng Qiuye retreated to the back hall and gradually disappeared in front of Ling Xiao's eyes. Leng Qiuye has never disobeyed him since he entered the Pingyuan Marquis Mansion, Leng Qiuye's too strange behavior today made Ling Xiao at a loss, everything in front of him happened too suddenly, so that Ling Xiao had no time to think, and Xiang Hongxi and a bunch of guests were still in the front hall, Ling Xiao could only pretend to be happy, and said calmly: "Xiaolan, tidy up the appearance of the third young lady, the new aunt has been waiting for a long time." ”

Maybe it was Leng Qiuye's strange behavior that made Ling Man a little dazed, and soon the people had already rearranged her appearance, and she was taken by Xiang Hongxi to Ling Xiao in a trance, and then she went out of the Pingyuan Marquis Mansion. Ling Xiao had no energy to deal with the guests in the house, and after he gave the guests to Ling Zhu, he impatiently walked to the Yilan Courtyard in the backyard.

As soon as Ling Xiao entered the Yilan Courtyard, Leng Qiuye had already set up a table of wine in the courtyard, waiting for him.

"Master Hou, you're here."

Originally, Ling Xiao was going to be furious, but when he saw Leng Qiuye's reddish eyes, it seemed that he had just cried, and his heart softened again, but when he thought of Leng Qiuye's strange behavior today, his brows furrowed, how many things in this deep mansion compound he didn't know.

"Tell me why you're doing this today."

"Master Hou, there is only one thing in the slave family that is indignant in this life, that is, it is obviously the body of the young lady, but in the end it ended up with the life of a subordinate, the slave family is unwilling, unwilling."

Leng Qiuye's tears flowed out again as she spoke, and there was loss, hatred, and starry expectations in her eyes. Ling Xiao looked at such cold autumn leaves, he was distressed and distressed.

"Haven't I given you enough love over the years?"

"It's not enough, Master Hou can give me love, but he can't give me a honor, in the end, I'm still a concubine. I fought for half my life, I was arrogant for half my life, and in the end I lost nothing, I knew that when the Leng family was copied, I should have jumped into the well in the backyard of the Leng family and died, at least I could have a good reputation as a martyr. ”

"What the hell is going on, you tell me." Ling Xiao asked with some excitement.

Leng Qiuye turned around and picked up two glasses of wine from the table behind her, and she handed one glass of wine to Ling Xiao.

"Master Hou, let's marry our daughter today, don't talk about these troublesome things, it's good for you to have a drink with the slave family."

Ling Xiao took the wine in Leng Qiuye's hand and drank it in one gulp. Leng Qiuye stared at the wine in her hand, her hands trembling.

"Master Hou, Hua'er works very hard, he is an obedient child, in the future of Hua'er, you have to worry more about it, find him a good daughter-in-law, don't be a concubine, you will be looked down upon, okay Master Hou." Leng Qiuye begged Ling Xiao, her eyes were overflowing with tears again, Ling Xiao's nose was slightly calculated, and he sighed.

"Don't worry, Hua'er won't be wronged."

After listening to Ling Xiao's words, Leng Qiuye smiled slightly, she looked at the wine glass in her hand, as if she had made up her mind, she raised her head and drank the wine in the cup, Leng Qiuye stumbled, Ling Xiao supported her with one hand and hugged her in his arms.

"Master Hou, the slave family is so happy, they got drunk after drinking a little wine." Leng Qiuye said with a smile.

Ling Xiao could feel that the cold autumn leaves in his arms were a little trembling, maybe it was because of Ling Man's sentimentality when he got married, maybe it was because of the grievances when he had just made a concubine ceremony to Jiang Shuangxue's tablet, although he didn't know what was going on, but he understood that this matter was still messy.

"Master Hou, the slave family is a little drunk, the slave family wants to go back to the house to rest, you go to the front hall to entertain guests, today the Pingyuan Hou Mansion has been rude a lot, and you can't be rude in front of people anymore." Leng Qiuye said faintly.

After saying that, she left Ling Xiao's arms and walked towards the house alone, Ling Xiao looked at Leng Qiuye's back, his face was sad, and he also turned around and left Yilan Courtyard.
