And so, the night went by.

Early the next morning, the morning dew dripped into the lotus pond early.

Zhang Cen Zhen sat in his room all night, cried all night, and hated all night.

When Alan came in with hot water, he happened to see Zhang Cenzhen's eyes closed, and a teardrop the size of a bean slipped down the corner of his eye and dripped onto the placket on his chest.

Alan just didn't see it, and after preparing everything to wash, he bowed down and approached, and said respectfully: "Second lady, the hot water is ready, you can get up and wash." ”

Zhang Cen Zhen was already displeased, and her temper was even hotter at this time, so she said in a bad tone: "It's only been a few hours, I haven't rested yet, what are your intentions?" ”

Alain quickly knelt down.

Today's genius is bright, and it is indeed a little earlier than usual.

But Mama Zhao is not serving by Zhang Cenzhen's side now, and the affairs in Zhang Cenzhen's room are temporarily managed by her, and she is a little maidservant, and she does not dare to slack off.

So he lowered his head to the ground and said: "Second lady is angry, today is the Moon Banquet in Fuzhong, and you are in charge of the family, so naturally you have to get up early to prepare." The slave and maid had told Madame late yesterday that Madame was not in a good mood at that time, so she only replied that she knew, and the slave and maid did not dare to say anything, so she retreated. ”

Zhang Cenzhen was angry, and he didn't think much about it, so he said, "You are still reasonable!" Wrong is wrong, where do so many excuses come from! I'm afraid that I usually treat you too well, and half of them are reversed, aren't they? ”

Alan lowered his head tightly and didn't dare to raise his head, the more Zhang Cengzhen looked at her, the more obstructive it became, and finally waved his hand directly and asked her to receive the punishment herself.

The room was quiet all of a sudden, and Zhang Cen Zhen reacted to what Alan said, and suddenly realized, remembering that today is the Moon Banquet of the Hou Mansion, the day of the family's reunion.

She holds the power of the house, and it is natural for her to get up early and prepare some things properly.

Zhang Cenzhen smiled and called Alan back, already having a plan in his heart.

In this way, the sun began to appear in the mountains, and after a while, Wang Rubi and all the rooms received the codex sent by Zhang Cen Zhen, saying that today's Houfu Moon Banquet is set in the back garden, so be sure not to be absent.

And Wang Ruru looked at the codex, her embroidered eyebrows were furrowed, and she couldn't say why she was flustered inexplicably in her heart.

Jiang Wan came in with the maidservant who was waiting for Wang Rubi to freshen up, and when she saw Wang Rubi's expression, she wondered: "Auntie, what's wrong?" Why are you worried? ”

Wang Rubi just glanced at her, then handed the codex to Jiang Wan, and said: "Today is the monthly banquet of the Hou Mansion, just a few days ago, the Hou Ye said that now the border is not stable, the people are not happy, if you can be thrifty, you can be thrifty, don't be extravagant and wasteful, so this month's monthly banquet will not be held, but now Zhang Cen Zhen has widely distributed the codex, what is he going to do?" ”

When Jiang Wan heard this, she also frowned and said, "Isn't this Cen Zhen going to play some new trick to win favor?" ”

The date on the codex is clear, looking like it has been done in the past few days, Wang Rubi listened to Jiang Wan's words, and felt a little agreed in her heart, but she felt that something was wrong, whether to go or not, and she couldn't pay attention to it for a while.

Jiang Wan saw Wang Rubi's hesitation, and asked tentatively: "Mother, then should we go or not?" ”

Wang Rubi stared at the codex and looked at it in a daze, now that she finally took the power, so she had to be careful at every step, Wang Rubi didn't want to lose the power she had in her hands before she got the power for a few days, "If you don't go, we shouldn't know." ”

"Huh? So what if Zhang Cenzhen uses this incident to talk more about her father? What Jiang Wan is thinking about now is not whether Jiang Congwen said anything about not holding a monthly banquet before, but whether Jiang Congwen will be disgusted with himself if he doesn't go today.

Not only did Wang Rubi receive the codex, but even Jiang Yu also received the codex.

Looking at the codex in Jiang Yu's hand, Qingping said a little strangely: "On weekdays, these days of the month are almost the days of the monthly banquet, and I got up earlier today, but there will already be people in front of the Hou Ye who will not hold a monthly banquet this month?" ”

Jiang Congwen had just come back from Xuzhou before, and he understood why he didn't hold a monthly banquet, but Wang Rubi's appearance was as if he didn't know, which was strange, Jiang Yu was puzzled, it stands to reason that in the past, no one knew about this kind of monthly banquet earlier than her, and even if they wanted to see jokes, they wouldn't tell Jiang Yu, and then let her run more.

Could it be that Wang Rubi's hands have grown enough to be able to place people around Zhang Cenzhen, and can still ensure that no one tells Zhang Cenzhen about this kind of thing?

Jiang Yu thought about it for a long time and didn't understand who did it, so she simply changed her clothes and went back to the couch to take a nap.

Jiang Yan has always had a bad relationship with Jiang Yu, usually even if Jiang Yan meets, she can't help but poke Jiang Yu a few words, why did she suddenly come to Jiang Yu?

"Hasn't my sister always had a good relationship with my second sister, why, didn't the third aunt arrange some good things for my sister?"

Jiang Yu has always liked to be pure, and most of the things she uses are low-key and luxurious, and everything in Jiang Yu's house was left to Jiang Yu by An Furu back then, which can barely be regarded as showing the heritage of a century-old family, Jiang Yan has followed Zhang Cenzhen for a long time, and she only knows that gold and silver are valuable, so naturally she can't see the quality of Jiang Yu's things here.

Jiang Yu didn't bother to care, so she simply replied: "Sister, there are naturally no good things here, but I don't know what the third sister is doing when she comes here today?" ”

"The monthly banquet prepared by my aunt is about to start, and I wonder why my sister hasn't arrived yet, so I'll come and have a look."

Jiang Yan opened her mouth and replied to Zhang Cenzhen's words before.

In previous years, Jiang Yu arrived early before noon, firstly, for fear of being counted late, and secondly, to make Jiang Congwen happy, Jiang Yu smiled lightly, took a sip of tea, and replied: "Recently, my body has not been very appropriate, so I won't go today, and I asked my sister to help my sister take leave." ”

What she said naturally followed Jiang Yan's thoughts, she wished that Jiang Yu would not go in this situation, and Jiang Congwen would definitely count Jiang Yu down at that time.

Jiang Yan's careful thoughts were all on her face, even Qingping on the side could see it, with a touch of disdain in her eyes, and she was a little lazy when serving tea, and Jiang Yan was now full of thoughts that Jiang Yu would definitely be told by her father if she didn't go.

Zhang Cenzhen asked Jiang Yan to inquire about how it could be so quiet on the day of the moon banquet, but Jiang Yan brought the news that Jiang Yu would not come, Zhang Cenzhen was almost angry with Jiang Yan, and asked her to inquire about why Wang Rubi didn't move, Jiang Yan was good, and she knew what she wanted to know and had no words.
