Chapter Twenty-Four: There is no good feast
The moon rises over the east wall, and the voices gradually dissipate. After being busy all day, Rongjin was so tired that his back hurt, and he was sitting in the teahouse with Xue Sisi chatting at the moment.
Today's opening is excellent, and there is a steady stream of diners. Rong Jin said: "The diners who came today are full of praise for the cakes you made. ”
Xue Sisi smiled, "I didn't expect that so many people would like it." ”
Shopkeeper Qin is a bold and neat person, he is very quick to get started, and he is crackling with the abacus at the moment, and when he heard the two chatting, he said with a smile: "The pastries in our building are exquisite and chic, with a wide variety of types, which cannot be eaten elsewhere." Business will definitely get better and better in the future. ”
The shopkeeper swept the floor neatly, wiped the tables and chairs in the store carefully, and then said, "Shopkeeper, it's done." I'll go back first. ”
Rong Jin also went back to the house with Xue Sisi.
Early the next morning, Rongjin stretched his waist, Walnut heard the movement, and gently pushed the door to the door: "Miss, you are awake." ”
Rong Jin's eyes were sleepy, and his voice was a little hoarse: "What time is it?" ”
Walnut stepped forward and raised the curtain and said softly, "Miss, it's time." And handed a letter to Rong Jin, "This is sent by the housekeeper in the Prime Minister's Mansion." ”
Rongjin stretched out her hand to take the letter, which read "Li Rongjin", and at first glance it was the handwriting of her father Li Xiang. "Dad said that tonight's family banquet, let me go back with Shen Yan." Then he instructed Walnut to send a letter to Shen Yanzhi.
Inside the Jinyu Building, it was very busy. When the shopkeeper Qin saw Rong Jin coming, he greeted him with a smile: "Madam, this business is really good today!" The pear blossom shop on the opposite side was red and died. ”
Rongjin nodded and found a place to sit down. saw Lu Weixin stepping into the gate and beckoned to him: "Brother Lu, here!" ”
Lu Weixin strode over, "When I went back yesterday, I also brought a few pastries for my mother, and she was full of praise, so I asked me to buy them for her again today!" ”
"That's it! It's not that I'm boasting, Miss Sisi's craftsmanship is definitely the first in the imperial capital! "Rongjin is triumphant.
"Miss Sisi?"
"It's the girl who co-opened the shop with me, not only beautiful, but also has good craftsmanship." Rong Jin praised suddenly.
Lu Weixin said: "Then I really want to know!" ”
Li Rongjin patted his chest, "That's no problem, I'll introduce you another day." ”
Rong Jin saw that the shopkeeper Qin was well managed, and it seemed that she had nothing to do, so he went back to the house and prepared for the banquet tonight.
Rong Jin returned to Qingzhu Garden, saw Shen Yanzhi at a glance, and was looking forward to her return.
"I've got a gift ready. How do you see me wearing this? Shen Yanzhi was wearing a brocade dress with a silver-white moire pattern, and asked her to give some advice.
"Beautiful!" Rongjin gave a thumbs up. She is really not exaggerating, Shen Yanzhi's facial features are exquisite, the lines are clear, the body is straight and slender, and she looks good in everything.
"Really?" Shen Yanzhi was a little unconvinced.
Rongjin nodded like pounding garlic, and his eyes were very sincere.
The two stepped on the meal and came to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Rongjin found that Li Xiang was in an unusually good mood today, he was middle-aged, slightly blessed, his face was wrinkled, and when he smiled, his eyes narrowed into a slit.
"Daddy."
"Daddy."
Rong Jin and Shen Yanzhi shouted at the same time.
"I'm back, let's take a seat." Li Xiang smiled and beckoned the two to sit down, and He's, Hu's, Li Rongxue, and Li Rongwei were all there.
The He family is radiant, the Hu family is smiling, Li Rongxue is still the same well-behaved and clever appearance, and Li Rongwei is trembling with laughter.
"Today's small family banquet is mainly to celebrate my father again!"
Rong Jin and Shen Yan looked at each other.
"Aren't you congratulating me?"
"Congratulations to Daddy for being a dad again!"
There is no need to ask, it must be the He family who is pregnant, looking at Li Rongwei's appearance, maybe there will be some moths.
"I'm so old, I wanted to keep a low profile. Or your sister Rong Wei is thinking about you, she said that this is a big happy event, and she needs to invite her eldest sister to come back to celebrate and celebrate together. Li Xiangru said.
"Thank you so much for my sister for missing me so much!" Rong Jin smiled slightly, modest and polite.
Li Rongwei looked arrogant, "My father originally wanted to let my sister come back on the day I remarried, so I proposed to let my sister know about it in advance and be happy together." ”
Rong Jin chuckled in his heart and asked, "Remarry?" ”
Li Xiang's expression was a little unnatural, and he still said to Rongjin: "I am going to carry Aunt He into the main room." ”
Ho looked shy, holding her baby's belly with both hands. "This doctor will look at the men and women and tell me that this baby must be a boy."
Hu's hands under his sleeves were clenched into fists, and he was jealous when he saw that the mother and daughter of the He family were so proud. She and the He family were both concubines, and the two of them had been on an equal footing for many years, and at first when the main room was gone, she had also thought about that position, but she didn't see Xiang Ye make any moves for many years, so she gradually lost her thoughts. Behold! Now because He is pregnant with a child, he has crushed her! Seeing that she is about to be corrected, how can she not hate! With an uncompetitive belly, why did he only give birth to a daughter, Rongxue, and he still can't fight or rob, and let others bully!
Rongjin was speechless for a while, she had thought that her father would at least always keep that position for her mother, a unique position.
Love in this world is nothing more than that.
Shen Yanzhi saw that Rong Jin didn't speak for a long time, quietly held her hand, and smiled at everyone: "Congratulations Dad!" Congratulations, auntie! Congratulations to Xiangfu for adding a new little son. ”
Saying that, he gave Fu Lu a look, and Fu Lu immediately moved, holding a delicate box in both hands. Shen Yan said: "Prepare a little courtesy, and ask your father-in-law to smile." ”
Li Xiang looked at Shen Yanzhi with a smile, and suddenly felt that this son-in-law was much more pleasing to the eye.
After a meal, Li Rongjin didn't know the taste.
After the meal, in Li Xiang's study. In a game of chess, Li Xiang holds the white son, and Shen Yanzhi holds the black child.
Li Xiang lifted a white child, slowly fell into the chessboard, and said inscrutablely: "Equally." ”
Shen Yanzhi stretched out his hand and touched the chess box, picked up a sunspot, thought for a moment, and then entered the chessboard, and said slowly: "The general trend has gone." ”
Li Xiang took a closer look and found that the original situation was evenly divided, but because of Shen Yanzhi's fall, now the whole situation has become the world of white sons. It turned out that Shen Yanzhi's son fell into the chess game, and he actually besieged his own black son to make way for the white son.
Li Xiang glanced at Shen Yanzhi and said, "There are no regrets." ”
Shen Yanzhi's hands arched, "The liver and brain are smeared on the ground." ”
In just a few words, when you come and go, the two have reached an ulterior agreement.
