Chapter 197 Director's Birthday Banquet
Peng's heart has long been about Wei Yingran, the son-in-law, and now that his dream can come true, he is naturally overjoyed, holding Peng Mo's hand, and said with relief: "It's really a bodhisattva's blessing." ”
Mo'er got such a good marriage, she will be gone one day, and she will have the face to meet the general on Huangquan Road.
Peng Mo looked at Peng's like this, as if a hole had been broken in his heart, the pain was unspeakable, and the pain was unspeakable, but he couldn't show anything on his face, just smiled and nodded, accepting everyone's congratulations.
Peng Hao knew that Peng Mo must be uncomfortable in her heart, and couldn't bear her to stay here and continue to deal with these people, so he said, "Hurry up and go back and rest, here is me and my mother." ”
Peng nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, you can go back quickly." "The girl's family is thin-skinned, where can she stand the jokes of these people, she was so happy that she forgot to let Mo'er avoid it.
Peng Mo looked at Peng Hao gratefully, gave blessings to several people in turn, and turned around and returned to Mohe Garden.
The room was quiet, the sunlight shone in through the thin window paper, but there was no temperature, she was like falling into an ice cave, every inch of cold skin hurt, she sat on the chaise longue, looked at the begonia flowers on the desk from a distance, and sat quietly.
In the front yard, Peng Hao sent off Father-in-law Su, looked at the direction of Mohe Garden, shook his head and sighed, walked to the flower hall, and saw that Peng was looking at it with a thick booklet, with a heartwarming smile on his face, and muttering to himself.
He approached and asked, "What is Mother looking at?"
"Are you back?Did Grandpa Su send him away?" Peng raised his head when he heard the voice, and after seeing Peng Hao, his smile deepened.
Recently, everything has been going well, although the will has not been made, but the marriage between Hao'er and Princess Roujia has been decided, and now Mo'er has also found a good match, which is really blessed by God.
"It's been sent away, what is my mother looking at?" Peng Hao sat down beside Peng's side, and only then did he see that she was holding a dowry list in her hand, and couldn't help but be stunned.
"You see, this is the dowry that your grandfather's family gave me when I married your father, and I am considering what to add to your sister. Peng happily flipped over the dowry list in his hand to Peng Hao, but did not find that his face was different.
Peng Hao said helplessly: "Mother, this is just a marriage, it's too early to get married, why are you in a hurry about the dowry." ”
Since his father's death, it was the first time he saw Peng so happy that he couldn't bear to interrupt, but when he thought of his sister and Jin Xiuchen, he had to say something again.
Peng glanced at Peng Hao and said, "Where is it early? ”
Wei Yingran is not young, the queen mother loves her brother so much, she will definitely hurry up to prepare for the marriage.
Peng Hao sighed, remembering the words of the holy decree, remembering the promise Jin Xiuchen made to him, and remembering the things his sister explained to him, his heart was heavy and not a taste.
Chengenhou Mansion
After Wei Yingran learned that Gonggong Su had gone to the General's Mansion to announce his decree, the appearance of living with Peng Mo appeared in his mind, and his smile deepened a lot.
Ping'an listened but was very worried, looked at Wei Yingran, who was smiling, and frowned: "Shizi, if this matter is known to the king... The consequences are unimaginable. ”
Wei Yingran was in a good mood, and when he heard this, he smiled and looked at Ping An lightly, and said coldly: "The letterhead on the desk, hand it out." ”
Ping An looked at Wei Yingran's gaze, knew that he was speechless, and his heart was shocked, swallowed his saliva, and came to the desk.
Seeing the sealed letterhead on the table, Ping'an frowned, it turned out that the prince had even thought about the explanation to the king, so it was not as simple as a whim for Peng Mo, was the prince a far-sighted decision?
Here, after Wu Xiaorou saw the epiphany, she was speechless in shock, and after a while, she wiped away her tears, grabbed the door, and hurried all the way to the general's mansion.
Mohe Garden
"Master, Mrs. Zhao is here. Liuying came to the room, looked at the person in a daze on the chaise longue, and whispered.
Peng Mo came back to his senses, took a breath, and said, "How is my mother?"
Mrs. just wanted to invite Mrs. Zhao to come in, but was stopped by Sister Qiaoyun, Sister Qiaoyun told Mrs. what she heard when she bought a butterfly hairpin in Su Shan's shopkeeper's store that day, Mrs. was silent for a moment after hearing this, and then went to the small Buddha hall to recite the scriptures, and did not mention the matter of inviting Mrs. Zhao in, as if she was not going to ask. Hotaru replied.
Peng Mo nodded, and said lightly: "You go and tell Uncle Zhong that in front of the Imperial Gift Super First Product General's Mansion, no one is allowed to make trouble!"
"Yes, my subordinates understand. Liuying nodded, and went out of the Mohe Garden to the front yard to find the housekeeper.
In the evening, Peng Hao came to Mohe Garden, looked at Peng Mo who was practicing calligraphy behind the desk, frowned and asked, "Why didn't you rest?"
Peng Mo looked up when he heard the voice, and after seeing Peng Hao's disapproval, he chuckled and put down the pen in his hand, came to the outside room, and sat down with him. "Didn't the third brother not rest either?"
Peng Hao couldn't see a trace of strangeness on her face, listening to her joking words, sighed, and said, "Will you still go to the Dong family's birthday banquet tomorrow?"
Peng Mo smiled and said lightly: "Naturally, I went." ”
Speaking of Dong's birthday banquet, she thought of Jin Xiuchen again, originally said that she would go to the theater together, but now... She was crowned as the princess of Cheng'en Hou to attend the banquet.
"Today, the people from Jingzhao Yin Mansion took Wu Xiaorou away, I'm worried that you will meet Zhao Qingying when you go to Qi Mansion tomorrow. ”
Peng Mo smiled sarcastically when he heard this, and said coldly: "What if you meet it? It's her who has no face to see people, not me." ”
Peng Hao nodded, his sister was no longer the little girl who was bullied by Zhao Qingying before, he was really worried in vain.
"I'll leave tomorrow, and I'll definitely finish what you've explained. ”
Peng Mo looked at Peng Hao with shining eyes, knowing what he was talking about, and lowered his eyelashes, covering his reddened eyes. "Thank you, third brother. ”
Peng Hao looked at it and sighed silently, and said, "Our brothers and sisters don't have to say thank you. With that, he got up and left.
In front of the Qi Mansion, cars and horses are rushing, and people are boiling.
Outside the gate, the butler greeted each guest with a smile on his face and transcribed the gifts they had brought.
Qi Mu stopped the carriage and said, "Master, it's here." ”
Peng Mo lifted the corner of the curtain, looked at the crowd of people passing shoulders in front of the Qi Mansion, hooked his lips and smiled, and said to himself: "Dong's birthday banquet is really lively. ”
Liu Ying looked at it and said, "The master's ceremony this year is definitely more lively than this." ”
Peng Mo smiled, stroked his skirt and got up, and stepped out of the carriage.
The housekeeper can sit in the position of the housekeeper, and he also has a certain ability, and it is needless to say that he is flattering and flattering, and he is not comparable to ordinary people.
Although there were many people in front of the door, he still saw Peng Mo standing out like a chicken at a glance, hurriedly put down the guests around him, stepped forward and arched his hand: "Wanfu to the county lord of Huining, it is really the honor of the lady to be here today." ”
Who doesn't know that Peng Mo rarely sets foot in the banquet in Beijing? Now that he actually came to participate in the Dong family's birthday banquet, he naturally gave the Qi Mansion enough face.
Peng Mo bowed slightly, and said in a quiet voice: "The housekeeper is polite." ”
The guests were very angry at the butler's behavior in such a blind eye, and they wanted to get angry, but after seeing that the person who came was Peng Mo, they suppressed the anger in their hearts and threw their sleeves into the mansion.
I want to ask why, because, they all know that compared to Peng Mo, they can only be insignificant!
She was born with the General's Mansion as a backer, so she was already strong enough, but she didn't expect her to add the respect of the second-grade county lord, and now she is married to Wei Yingran, which is undoubtedly another backer for the queen.
How can they compare such a stunning woman with a strong background that cannot be shaken?
Peng Mo was led all the way to the backyard, and before she could stand still when she stepped into the flower hall, she heard Jin Roujia's call, approached with a smile, and curtsied and said, "The courtier has seen Princess Roujia." ”
Jin Roujia held her hand, pulled her to sit beside her, and said angrily, "What is this? Why is it rusty outside?"
Peng Mo looked at the people in the flower hall and whispered: "It's natural how comfortable we are to be together in private, but outside, I have to be polite to you, otherwise others will not only talk about me, but also beak you." ”
"It's a nuisance. Jin Roujia rolled her eyes.
Peng Mo smiled helplessly, because of her arrival, all the ladies in the flower hall stopped talking and set their eyes on her.
She accepted everyone's scrutiny, her eyes roaming over them, and they all smiled lightly.
Everyone nodded secretly to Peng Mo's composure, a little girl can be so generous and decent, it is excellent not to have stage fright, and her friendliness is also a smile.
Peng Mo turned to look at Dong at this time, and said with a smile: "On the birthday of the lady, the little girl has prepared a thin gift, and I hope that the lady will live a long life of 100 years and be young forever." After she finished speaking, Liu Ying handed the gift in her hand to the woman beside Dong.
Qi Yu's smile froze, doesn't she standing behind Dong mean that she is a maid, okay?
I scolded this short-eyed maid a thousand times in my heart, but in order to maintain my image, my face was not obvious at all, so I took the gift and turned around and handed it to the maid behind me.
Dong Shi followed the voice to find a direction, and replied with a smile: "The Lord of Huining County is polite, it is already a good gift for you to come." After a pause, his smile deepened: "I haven't congratulated the county lord and Wei Shizi on making a good relationship." ”
Peng Mo smiled when he heard this, and said with his head bowed, "Thank you, madam." ”
As Dong's words fell, the faces of all the ladies and ladies in the flower hall were a little stiff.
Because, one of the best men in Beijing already has a master, and this "master" is Peng Mo, and the envy and jealousy in their hearts are needless to say.
When Jin Roujia heard this topic, she pursed her mouth and said, "Peng Mo, you will be my aunt in the future, and you are really uncomfortable." "It's obviously about the same age, but after she married her uncle, the two of them were a generation apart!
Peng Mo smiled lightly: "If the princess feels bored, she can go and ask the emperor to take back her will." Although it was just an unintentional joke, she didn't really think so in her heart.
Jin Roujia looked at the people around her and said in a low voice: "It's boring, but it's more for you to be happy, you and your uncle are very compatible." ”
Not to mention that Jun has no jokes, the holy decree has not been recalled, that is, just talking about Peng Mo, Jin Roujia is extremely satisfied, and it is really good for her to be her aunt.
Moreover, it is a blessing that my uncle can marry Peng Mo, even the queen mother is very satisfied, and after the father issued the decree yesterday, he has been chanting words such as the blessing of the Bodhisattva.
