Chapter 332 The banquet officially begins

The more Yang Ruopei spoke, the more angry he became, until the last sentence he couldn't help it, and slapped his hand heavily on the stone table.

Su Zhongshi was taken aback, and the expression on his face became flustered, and Diecui on the side hurriedly pulled Xiaolian to hide away, and saw Su Zhongshi stand up and walk to Yang Ruopei's side, so as to explain.

"How could I mean that? Anyway, I'm also Jiao'er's father, so it's reasonable to come and care about it. I have also thought a lot during this time, it is true that I owe too much to your mother and son before, I don't ask you to forgive me, I just hope you can accept my kindness. ”

"Accept," Yang Ruopei's two words were unclear, which made Su Zhongshi think it was possible at first, but when he saw Yang Ruopei turn his head, the emotion in his eyes suddenly made his enthusiasm half cold.

"How do you make us accept you? A father who betrayed his mother, do you think Jiao'er will be rare? Yang Ruopei smiled bitterly, and faint tears seemed to be visible in the corners of her eyes.

"And this plate of mutton dumplings, you know that I actually belong to sheep, and my surname is Yang, so I never eat anything made of mutton, what kind of thought did you have in mind to send this kind of thing to us."

"I," Su Zhongshi was stunned.

In all dynasties, all those who lived in the capital took mutton as the top quality, because mutton was the most nourishing in winter and could warm up, so Su Zhongshi probably took it for granted that sending mutton could represent part of his mind, but he didn't expect to pat the horse's hooves.

"I really didn't mean to, so I'll go back and have them bring you another plate of beef."

"No need, you can see from these little things that you have never cared about me, so you don't have to do these fake things now."

"Naturally, the marriage between you and me was originally the same. You and I have our own intentions, and I don't have much friendship with you,"

Yang Ruopei stood up and raised his right hand slightly, blocking all the words behind Su Zhongshi, but when he said the sentence of each mind, he paused unconsciously, and his tone was full of bitterness.

"Now that the two parties are separated, you don't have to come again, otherwise next time you let Jiao'er see that Jiao'er is now grown up, and she won't be as easy to talk as I am."

When the words landed, Su Zhongshi probably heard the determination in Yang Ruo's words, and he wanted to persuade a few more words, but he also realized that he had no position, so he had to go back with the empty food box.

And Su Jiao finally waited for Su Zhongshi to leave, as if she was catching a traitor, she came out of the bamboo forest, and rushed to Yang Ruopei's yard with a not very good-looking face.

Yang Ruopei was still sighing just now, and when she turned around and saw Su Jiao standing in front of her, she was accidentally startled.

"Jiao'er, why don't you move when you walk? But it scared my mother. ”

"Mother, has Master Su been here?" Su Jiao really couldn't call Su Zhongshi his father anymore, so he reluctantly called him so.

Hearing this, Yang Ruopei estimated that she was afraid that Su Jiao would be unhappy. As soon as the eyes turned, the lies came out of their mouths.

"No, did you mishear other people's news, isn't there a banquet in the palace today, you better hurry into the palace, so as not to be late and make people laugh."

As soon as these words came out, Su Jiao's eyes suddenly widened, and she retracted her neck in disbelief.

If Yang Ruopei told the truth, Su Jiao wouldn't feel anything, but the first thing she thought of was to hide it from herself, which made Su Jiao have to worry.

"Is it true? If he didn't come, when did these two plates of dumplings come out of the pot? I remember my mother, you never ate mutton, and this leek, I always hated leeks the most, and I was prone to bad breath after eating them. ”

Su Jiao turned her head slightly, and snorted from her throat in a weird way, which was also made up by the present, and took the little words she had just heard, and came over to set Yang Ruopei's words.

When Yang Ruopei heard her say it so clearly, she also knew that she couldn't hide it, so she hurriedly smiled and pulled Su Jiao to the side and sat down.

"Don't be in a hurry, listen to your mother tell you slowly, your father will come over today, and my mother really doesn't know."

Yang Ruopei put one hand on Su Jiao's back and gently stroked it twice, as if she was smoothing her hair, but when Su Jiao heard the word "father" inside, her face was still ugly, and Yang Ruopei had no choice but to hurriedly change her name.

"I know how much you have a grudge against him, why not mother, mother will not be so stupid, because his little sweet words will change his mind." Yang Lepei smiled lightly, but suddenly there was a lot of sadness on his face.

"Now that my mother has been out of that prison, all she is thinking about now is how to clear her grievances for her brother and Ren'er, and she will never think about anything else. So don't worry, next time he dares to come over, his mother will let someone take a broom to kick him out as soon as possible. ”

Yang Ruopei raised a hand, very sure of such a guarantee, and Su Jiao couldn't help but chuckle in her heart when she heard her mention the Yang family.

After such a long time, I also tossed around from Nankang, and in the end, I got the news of Margo from Suta like picking up a leak.

Su Jiao was also very bitter in her heart, and she didn't dare to tell Yang Ruopei how she was doing now, so as soon as she heard Yang Ruopei mention this matter, she subconsciously wanted to avoid it for the time being.

"Ah, yes, I naturally believe what my mother says. Mother should not be too sad about this matter, people still have to look forward positively. ”

"Yes, mother knows in her heart, it's this hour, aren't you in a hurry to enter the palace? It's getting dark. Yang Ruopei nodded, coldly noticing that the sky was gradually darkening, and then remembered to remind Su Jiao.

Su Jiao jumped up suddenly, and was babbling in place in the same surprise as Mu Hibiscus.

"Oh, I really forgot, so let's go!"

"No, ma'am, I haven't taken the stove yet."

Saying that, Su Jiao was about to run outside in a hurry, Mu Hibiscus pulled her very worriedly and asked, while Mu Rong gave up completely, standing helplessly to the side and pressing her forehead.

"I can't take care of it, let's go first!"

"Jiao'er!"

Yang Ruopei sat on the stool, noticed that Su Jiao's two hands were obviously a little red from the cold, and heard the conversation of their master and servant beckoning, asking Xiaolian to bring her own way.

As soon as Su Jiao turned around, she saw Yang Ruopei delivering a very warm hand stove to her.

"If you don't have a hand stove, you'll definitely catch a cold along the way, so let's use my mother's first, and my mother will wait for you to come back."

Hearing this, Su Jiao held the hand stove, raised her head and looked at Yang Ruopei with loving eyes, and instantly felt that her nose was a little sour, but Mu Rong came back to call her first, and everyone remembered to hurry to the palace.

At this time, it was already approaching evening, and the winter night was darkening very quickly, but fortunately, with the cover of this night, Su Jiao did not secretly enter the palace until this time, and not many people paid attention.

Naturally, not many people put the hope of future succession to the throne on Xiao Huai'an, so it is reasonable that there is not much attention.

More people are still there gossiping about the queen's Xu Rulie's sudden exit from the city, and when Xu Ruzhu's leg injury will heal These things, for a while, looking at the extremely lively banquet venue on the surface, there was a strong sour atmosphere of fame and fortune inside.

Su Jiao covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief, and moved from the edge of the hall to her place little by little.

It stands to reason that she should be very familiar with this kind of scene, but maybe it's because she's seen too many ghosts, snakes, and gods in modern times, so she hopes that she can see something clean and pure.

Thinking about it, Su Jiao didn't notice where her position was for a while, and she saw a man in a black robe suddenly standing in front of her.

"Ah, I'm sorry." She hurriedly stood still, subconsciously apologized, and when she raised her head, she realized that this person turned out to be Xiao Huai'an.

"Huai'an, when did you come over, and everything in the palace has been settled?" Seeing that it was Xiao Huai'an, Su Jiao's many chatters about this banquet also disappeared, and she held Xiao Huai'an's arm affectionately.

Xiao Huai'an indulged her like this, even on such a high-profile occasion, he did not shy away from taking Su Jiao to the seat of the husband and wife in person.

"Originally, it was just a year-round work handover routine, and as for the arrangement of the banquet, there were also people from the Etiquette Department to worry about, so I wasn't very busy, and I waited for you to come over in the afternoon, but I didn't expect you to appear at this time."

It turned out that someone was still paying attention, and Su Jiao thought that her actions were very hidden.

She was embarrassed to look at Xiao Huai'an, and gently stuck out her tongue in the corner where only he could see, and then leaned her head on the back of his left shoulder a little coquettishly.

"This is a long story, there was a little accident in the middle, but fortunately, isn't it still catching up now?"

Hearing this, Xiao Huaian smiled helplessly, raised his hand and touched the back of Su Jiao's head twice. But after all, there are so many people here, and he can't show that he is too close.

If it's in your own home, you don't need to be so restricted.

Su Jiao also smiled and nodded, and when she sat up straight, she saw the emperor accompanying the Empress Xian Concubine up, followed by the limping Xu Ruzhu and the cute little prince.

The little prince Xu Ruye was wearing a brocade cotton robe with a fiery red background and gold thread embroidery, matched with his round little face, which looked very pleasing, but the emperor and Xu Ruzhu's faces did not look very happy.

The emperor has been arrogant all his life and has never refused to admit defeat, but at this year's Qianqiu banquet, at first glance, his face seems to have suddenly aged a lot, and he no longer has the vigor and majesty he once had.
