In the Cunshan Hall, Shen Huaiyue and Xu Ping'er amused Mrs. Xie with a word.

Xie Jinwei sat aside, without any idea of joining, only feeling bored and ridiculous.

Xie Jin moved his knees under his skirt slightly, feeling that he had regained some consciousness, and he thought that it should be okay to walk, so he got up with the support of Qing Dai.

"Taijun, Xie Jin will retire first." Now that he has already asked for peace, Xie Jin does not want to waste his time.

"Jin'er, don't worry." Mrs. Xie unexpectedly began to keep Xie Jin: "This lunch time is almost coming, grandmother has invited guests, you can accompany you to eat." ”

"Yes." Although Xie Jin had doubts, he also wanted to see what kind of medicine was sold in Mrs. Xie's gourd.

Hearing Mrs. Xie's words, Shen Huaiyue and Xu Ping'er looked at each other and smiled, becoming happier and happier.

At this time, Mama Shen came over and whispered beside Mrs. Xie, and Xie Jin vaguely heard a few words that the guests had arrived.

Sure enough, Mrs. Xie opened her mouth and said, "The guests are here, let's go over." Don't keep your guests waiting. ”

Xie Jin came to the banquet hall suspiciously, until a familiar and elegant figure appeared, and she instantly understood all the plans of Old Taijun Xie.

It's just that I don't understand how Mrs. Xie invited this person.

"Thank you." Mr. Dongru heard the footsteps and turned around.

At a glance, he saw Xie Jin, who was his favorite in the crowd.

"Master, why are you here?" Xie Jin asked with some confusion.

Xie Jin looked at Mr. Dongru in front of him, who was still young, but the love for himself in his eyes remained unchanged.

"Didn't you give an invitation to the teacher? said that the wine and food were ready, and he was greedy for the teacher, and he missed Bitong's craftsmanship. ”

Mr. Dongru looked at Xie Jin with a puzzled expression, and took out the invitation from his cuffs: "There is also your seal on it." ”

Xie Jin took the invitation from Mr. Dongru, which was indeed his seal.

She glanced at Old Mrs. Xie, whose face had changed slightly, her face was solemn, and Cunshantang's hand was really too long.

At this time, Mrs. Xie was afraid that the two would ruin the banquet she had carefully prepared after chatting deeply, so she said with a smile: "Mr. Dongru is here, please take a seat." ”

After that, he asked a group of girls and mothers-in-law to wait for everyone present to sit down.

Eight treasure duck, sweet and sour mandarin fish, exquisite five treasures stew, seafood matsutake mushroom......

One after another delicacies poured up, filling a whole table, and the old lady Xie, who had been lying down for half a night, had a little appetite.

As a well-known foodie in Beijing, Mr. Dongru's ability to taste food is very capable.

He has a number of famous dishes in the famous restaurants in the capital, and the most exciting food for him, in addition to the imperial chef in the palace, is only the craftsmanship of Bitong's girl.

And the table in front of ...... It's better to dine-in in the palace school to make him excited......

However, the old fox is like Mr. Dongru, so naturally people will not let people see his thoughts.

Xu Ping'er couldn't do it even more, looking at the banquet she was organizing, she secretly picked up a mung bean cake and put it in front of Mr. Dongru and said: "I heard that Mr. loves mung bean cake the most, the little girl is not talented, cook it herself, and I hope Mr. will not dislike it." ”

Mr. Dongru looked at Xu Ping'er, who was dressed in a light green dress and only had a jade hairpin on her head, the girl was slender, but she was quite stylish.

The mung bean cake in her hand is small and exquisite, quietly placed on the blue and white porcelain plate produced by the official kiln.

The rich verdant and elegant blue and white complement each other, as if it is not a food, but a delicate ornament.

Looks like this girl has done her homework!

Mr. Dongru didn't like Xu Ping'er's face, picked up a mung bean cake and put it in his mouth, and nodded slightly.

Xu Ping'er was overjoyed in her heart, she tried her best to control the expression on her face, and smiled at Mr. Dongru, the beauty of the cardamom girl was pitiful.

Mrs. Xie looked at Xu Ping'er's performance with satisfaction, and said at the right time: "Mr. Dongru, this is my niece and granddaughter, I made you smile." ”

"Taijun said that he was joking, this young lady Lan Xinhui is very good, how can she make people laugh."

After listening to Mr. Dongru's words, the smile on Mrs. Xie's face became brighter, and she hurriedly introduced Shen Huaiyue to Mr. Dongru: "Sir, this is my mother's nephew. ”

Shen Huaiyue stood up generously, clasped his hands into fists and saluted: "Hello, sir." ”

Youthful and heroic!

Xu Ping'er on the side and the maids waiting next to her were all fascinated.

Mr. Dongru nodded appreciatively and said to Mrs. Xie: "The future is terrifying, Taijun is really a blessing." ”

Mr. Dongru's praise made Mrs. Xie's eyes narrow into a line, and he slowly said his thoughts: "Sir, my two juniors have just come to the capital, and it is time to enter the hall. If Mr. doesn't dislike it, I would like them to call you a master like Jin'er. ”

Old Taijun Xie's words made Shen Huaiyue and Xu Ping'er's eyes light up.

Their original plan was just to invite Mr. Dongru in the name of Xie Jin, hoping to set out the test questions of the Qiwu Poetry Club, so that they could shine at the poetry meeting and successfully enter the palace school.

But if you can become a disciple of Mr. Dongru, not only will you enter the palace school, but you will also be a fish leaping into the dragon gate.

As the only descendant of Mr. Dongli's lineage, no one in the world will sell Mr. Dongru a little face.

At this time, Xie Jin, who was silently sipping tea and watching the performance of the three of Xie Laotaijun, was shocked by Xie Laotaijun's ignorance and was scalded by the tea.

Mr. Dongru was also taken aback by Mrs. Xie's words, and before he could swallow a sip of wine, he almost squirted out.

"Miss, are you alright?" Qing Dai asked with concern.

Xie Jin shook his head and whispered a few words to Qing Dai, who took the order and left.

"Jin'er, do you think your grandmother's proposal is good, and someone will accompany you to and from school in the future." Mrs. Xie couldn't hold back her dissatisfaction with Xie Jin's gaffe, and asked with a kind expression.

Xie Jin only felt that he had underestimated Mrs. Xie's face, secretly glanced at Mr. Dongru, and said to Mrs. Xie after returning a helpless look from the master: "Such a big matter, the master has his own decision, and Jin'er does not dare to discuss it." ”

Seeing that Xie Jin was well-behaved and obedient like cotton to Xie Laotaijun's question, Xu Ping'er was not angry in her heart: Who doesn't know that Xie Jin is Mr. Dongru's favorite disciple, but he is not even willing to say a good word for himself, he is really stingy!

Mrs. Xie ate a soft nail, so she could only throw the question back to Mr. Dongru, and said in a retreat: "What does Mr. think, if Mr. thinks these two people are stupid and uneducated, there is no need to force it, just as the old man didn't say what he said just now." ”

But Mr. Dongru didn't eat Xie Lao Taijun's rhetoric of deep boudoir fighting, and said: "The old Taijun is serious, but Dong Mou has already announced to the world in the early years, and he will not accept disciples after joining the palace school for too long, in order to concentrate on taking care of the palace school, and I hope that Taijun will forgive me." ”

Mr. Dongru's refusal made Mrs. Xie's face become cold, but she remembered that it was indeed the case, and she didn't know how to speak for a while.

"Isn't Sister Xie a disciple that Mr. accepted after being a palace scholar for too long?" Xu Ping'er asked innocently.

"The will of the first emperor cannot be disobeyed, and it can be regarded as my fate with the brocade girl." Mr. Dongru said lovingly.
