Chapter 3: Family Banquets

Looking at Song Huaijin's appearance, I think she knew Chu Rong, the prince of King Jing, but why couldn't she remember it at all?

She looked at Chu Rong suspiciously, trying to find the answer from that shocked face.

Chu Rong's facial features are excellent, but the numerology above the facial features is like a layer of gauze covering her, she can't see clearly, and she can't see through it.

She has been learning the art of physiognomy since she was a child, and it has been an unknown number of years, and there is another person in addition to the master in her previous life.

The man......

Thinking of this, her heart slammed, and the tip of her heart trembled a little.

It was a headache that she didn't dare to face head-on for sixteen years of rebirth......

"Little sister?" Song Huaijin saw that Song Li's face suddenly changed, and a trace of suspicion flashed on his face, "What's wrong with you?" ”

"Nothing." She shook her head, an ugly smile on her face.

Song Huaijin pursed her lips and looked at her, her dark eyes were bottomless, "When you were a child, you were the best friend of Qi Yu, and you were either sticking to me and Gu Shaoqing all day long, or sticking to Qi Yu, how can you forget it now?" ”

"I can't tell what's going on, if I hadn't seen Shizi now, I wouldn't have forgotten about him." She lowered her eyes and looked at the patterns on the brocade quilt, and her heart was stunned.

She was friendly with Chu Rong when she was a child? But why didn't she have any memories of Chu Rong in her memory......

Song Huaijin snorted, and there was a gloom in his eyes, "It's okay, I think it's affected by poison in the afternoon." He walked to Song Li's bed and sat down, a pair of eyes that were very similar to Song Li's fixed on the top of Song Li's hair, "Maybe I'll remember it when it recovers." ”

"Do you still remember Gu Shaoqing, the little demon king of the Eldest Princess's Mansion, your childhood playmate?"

Song Li nodded, "Remember, when I was still on the mountain, he handed me a letter, saying that he had found another beautiful concubine who could dance in the city." When he raised his head, the waves in his eyes faded, and he regained his calm again, "This is the eighteenth beautiful concubine in his account, right?" ”

"Hmm." Song Huaijin never left Song Li's face, and taught earnestly, "You stay away from him in the future, and you must not be as close to him as you did when you were a child." ”

Song Li didn't understand why Song Huaijin said this, he was confused, and opened his mouth and said, "Why?" ”

"I don't want you to be implicated in his reputation."

Song Li nodded thoughtfully.

"That's right." Song Huaijin thought of Chu Rong and said suddenly: "Just now I came out of the Ministry of Industry and happened to meet the prince from the palace, I heard that you came back and came with me to take a look, although you are no longer in trouble, but looking at the qi and blood is not so good, it is better to let the prince prescribe a pulse to give you a few pills to gain and replenish essence." ”

He said and looked at Chu Rong, as if he was asking Chu Rong's opinion.

Chu Rong nodded, and got up without waiting for Song Li to refuse.

Seeing this, Yingyue hurriedly said, "Shizi, please wait a moment, I'll go get the red line." As he spoke, he was leaving.

"No need." Chu Rong's voice was clear and pleasant, and he stopped talking after only one sentence.

Yingyue was stunned in place, watching Chu Rong calmly check Song Li's pulse, and her jaw was about to drop

Everyone in Beijing knows that Chu Rong Shizi has a habit of cleanliness and does not like to have physical contact with people, even if the nobles in the palace invite him to visit the pulse, he has to borrow the red line to avoid physical contact.

But right now, he actually grabbed Song Li's hand to check the pulse.

Song felt a hint of coolness coming from her wrist, her eyes narrowed, and she carefully examined this delicate face, and suddenly there was a faint orchid fragrance from the tip of her nose, and her breath became a little confused.

As if sensing the changes in Song Li's gaze and breath, Chu Rong raised his eyes and looked at her with a pair of peach blossom eyes like a clear spring.

Song Li has lived two lives, and has never been looked at so seriously, and for a while she was a little overwhelmed, her cheeks were slightly red, and she coughed lightly avoiding his gaze.

"You are fine now, just cultivate for two days, but the previous poison was too domineering, which hurt your roots, and if you want to get pregnant in the future, I am afraid it will be a little difficult, so you can only slowly recuperate." Feeling Song Li's urgency, Chu Rong chuckled, let go of her wrist and said leisurely.

"It's okay, the child's affairs are not in a hurry, there is time to adjust slowly." Song Huaijin was afraid that Song Li would be sad, so he said comfortingly.

Song Li snorted softly and lowered his eyes to block the joy in his eyes.

In ancient times, people generally got married early, and began to marry at the age of fourteen or fifteen, and her body was only sixteen years old, and she was still in junior high school in modern times, and she didn't want to get married and have children early.

Unfilial piety is great, with the shield of difficult pregnancy, she is not afraid that someone will come to the door to propose, after all, this is not a trivial matter in ancient times, but this is not enough, she has to think of other ways.

"Childe, the old lady asked the old man to come and ask you to wait for the front yard to sit down and eat."

A voice came from outside the door.

It was Mama Lu, the head of the old lady's yard.

Song Huaijin responded, looked at Song Li, and said, "You change first, we will wait for you at the door." ”

After speaking, he glanced at Yingyue who was standing aside.

"No need." Song Li lifted the quilt and began to put on his shoes, "Since grandmother has already sat down, it's not good to make her old man wait for a long time, Yingyue, you give me a basin of water, I'll wash up and leave." ”

"Okay, Miss, wait a minute!" Yingyue nodded and ran out of the house quickly.

After a while, she walked in with a basin of steaming water, she put the basin on the basin rack, wet and wrung out the handkerchief and sent it to Song Li.

Song Li took the handkerchief and wiped his face indiscriminately, and stood up from the bed with the help of Yingyue.

"Whew, I'm still a little weak in my legs." She took two steps under the gaze of the three eyes, and said helplessly with a sigh.

"Nothing." Song Huaijin raised her legs and walked up to Song Li, took her hand, "If you can't use your strength, go slower." ”

Song Li nodded, and slowly walked out with the support of Yingyue and Song Huaijin.

Chu Rong's steps seemed to be a leisurely stroll, and he followed Song Huaijin unhurriedly, never taking a step faster, nor taking a step slow.

The four of them walked side by side, and the eyes of the guards and subordinates of the Guogong Mansion were focused on them.

However, it can be clearly felt that most of the eyes looking at Chu Rong are there.

Mama Lu followed closely behind them within three steps, frequently looking at Song Li and Chu Rong as she walked, with a smile between her eyebrows.

Originally, a normal person could reach the distance in more than ten minutes, but because of Song Li, it took more than half an hour to walk.

"Why are you dressed like that? I prepared so many clothes for you, why didn't you change them in. As soon as Song Li entered the front hall, he ushered in the old lady's count.

"And you girl, let you serve Miss, you serve like this, and if the silk is not neat, let her come out in this coarse cloth." After counting Song Li, the old lady pointed the finger at Yingyue

Yingyue complained in her heart, it was not that she didn't dress up with Song Li, it was that Song Li didn't give her a chance at all, so she wiped her face casually and came up.

Song Li's eyes swept over the people on the table, and found that except for the second and third uncles' family, there was no figure of his father Song Zhang, and he had some doubts in his heart.

Seeing them appear, all eyes at the table turned to them again.

"Okay grandmother, let's eat quickly, I'm so hungry that my chest is pressed against my back."

She withdrew her gaze and hurriedly spoke, interrupting the chattering old lady.

The old lady glanced at Song Li, snorted, although her face was displeased, but she still said with good words: "You girl, you are used to being in the wilderness in the mountains, you will rely on you once on the first day you come back, and you will not take it as an example, you are always the young lady of the Guogong Mansion, representing the bright side of the Guogong Mansion. ”

Song Li knew that the old lady valued the majesty of the Guogong Mansion, so he responded and promised not to make an example, and the old lady's face improved.

"Li'er can't accompany his grandmother for nine years in the mountains, Li'er feels ashamed, Li'er uses tea to toast his grandmother with a cup of wine, I hope that my grandmother is safe and healthy, long-lived, long-lived, long-lived, happy, smiling, and happy!"

Song Li picked up the teacup in front of him and looked at the old lady, "Li'er is not feeling well, so she will sit and respect my grandmother, I think my grandmother will not accuse me of being rude!" ”

The old man also picked up the teacup, and when he heard her words, he glanced at her fiercely, his face was full of smiles, "You girl, when did grandmother blame you!" She took a sip and continued to say lovingly: "Your heart and blessing grandmother have been received, as long as you are well, grandmother will be satisfied." ”

She sighed suddenly, and her old face added a little melancholy.

"Grandmother rest assured, Li'er will definitely protect herself, so that grandmother can rest assured!" She drank the tea in her cup and said with a light smile.

While the two were talking, the rest of the people were silent, quietly looking at the two of Zu Ci and Sun Xiao.

Suddenly, a beautiful woman wearing a blue black-patterned stand-up collar and long jacket spoke, interrupting this affectionate scene, "Speaking of mother, Li'er is sixteen years old this year, it's time to say a good person, I think the second son of Taishifu is good, Mrs. Taishi also mentioned it to me before, but my mother loves Li'er so much, she must have looked for Li'er." ”

The person who spoke was the mother of the second room, Yan, Song Li's second aunt.

Seeing that Yan opened her mouth, the old lady's willow eyebrows frowned slightly, and her eyes flowed out of displeasure for a moment, and she seemed to be a little dissatisfied with Yan's mention of Song Li's marriage on this occasion, but because of the face of many people, she just mentioned it lightly: "Just take care of your backyard affairs, I have my own opinions on the marriage of the divorced son." ”

Seeing the old lady speak, Yan smiled faintly, took a sip of tea and replied interestingly: "Daughter-in-law is provincial." ”

"Mother, I think what the second sister-in-law said is reasonable, Li'er is already sixteen years old, and the one who is with Li'er has already married a wife, and it is better to put Li'er's marriage on the agenda earlier, after all, the years are urging people to get old......"

Cui Shi, the mother of the third room, chuckled, the maintenance was very good, her delicate hand like a girl stroked her sideburns, her eyes glanced at Song Li, and she said meaningfully.

In ancient times, women got married early, and began to marry after the ceremony, many of them got married at the age of fifteen or sixteen, and they were already parents at the age of eighteen or nineteen.

Sixteen years old is already considered an older girl in this era.

The old lady's eyes moved slightly, she originally left Song Li by her side for a while, but when she thought of the words of the third daughter-in-law, she couldn't help but feel a little stunned.

Song Li's thoughts have been baptized in the twenty-first century, and it is impossible for her to get married and have children at the age of sixteen, the corners of her mouth raised a seemingly non-existent arc, and she quickly had a countermeasure in her heart.

She sighed resentfully, lowered her head to drink a cup of herself, a trace of cunning crossed her eyes, and pretended to be helpless and said: "The two aunts don't know, I haven't been able to get married in the past two years, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint the two aunts." ”

Yan Shi was slightly stunned when he heard this, his eyes looked at Song Li for a moment, and he asked suspiciously: "Why is this?" ”

Song Li looked up at Yan's family, smiled bitterly, and was about to speak, when a hearty laugh happened to come from outside the door, interrupting her words.

Song Li frowned, his face remained silent, but he secretly scolded in his heart that it was really not the right time for someone to come.
