Chapter XI
General Xiahou's 50th birthday was well organized, as lively as in previous years, and more magnificent than in previous years.
The main reason is that Su Mu is not familiar with ancient silver and money, and he doesn't know how much one two two taels are, one ingot of silver and one ingot of gold. Anyway, as Xianyue said before, Xiahou Mansion is not short of money, especially in business, and face must be sufficient. The money spent is handled by the mistress, and the money spent only needs to be withdrawn from the house.
Su Mu smiled and said honestly: "To put it simply, I took Xiahou Yu's money to Xiahou Yu and his father to manage the big birthday, how much money is not the point, it's good to hold the scene, right!" ”
Xianyue nodded repeatedly, "That's what it means." Although she doesn't know what it is, she can guess it with the context before and after. I guess it's something like holding up the scene.
Since the princess woke up, she has had a lot of fresh and interesting words, which have benefited her a lot.
The busy day is the grandest and most serious finale when it comes to dinner. Because this is the last step, if you mess up, then the day's success will be in vain.
Su Mu started tossing before dawn in the morning, and now he didn't even have time to drink saliva, he was sleepy and tired, so he almost lay on the ground and fell asleep directly.
Holding on to the last trace of spirit, she hurriedly got everything that should be prepared and explained, thinking that when the banquet began, she finally took two mouthfuls of food and said that she was a little unwell and had to go back to rest. Anyway, it's true that she has just recovered from a serious illness, and others can't say anything else about her.
However, things are not satisfactory, often this person, the more she wants to do, the more she can't do anything. Even if you do it, you have to pass the test, overcome thorns and thorns, be tired until the oil runs out, and you don't want to sleep, you just want to scold your mother.
No, Su Mu ate a few bites of light, got up and just wanted to take a step forward with his father-in-law Xiahou Zhi, who was in the throne, when a soft and charming voice with a bit of villain triumph rose first.
"Uncle, today is your fiftieth birthday, and my niece has nothing to give you, so I specially prepared a dance for you to see, so that you can be happy."
Su Mu followed the sound, but saw a woman in a long red dress standing tall, already standing on the stage with a few small women dressed charmingly.
This woman was the first time she had seen her, and she hurriedly asked the moon beside her, "Who is she?" ”
Xianyue said: "Back to the princess, it is Xiahou Ling, the daughter of the old general's younger brother's family." ”
"Oh. Xiahou Yu's cousin...... Or cousin? ”
"It's cousin. Miss Xiahou has just arrived this year, so she came to attend the old general's birthday banquet together. Otherwise, according to the rules of our Xiahou family, women would not be able to come forward in such a mixed place. ”
Su Mu raised his eyebrows, "Mixed fish and dragons? ”
"The princess is not surprised, this is not wrong." Xianyue explained even more in a low voice, "Don't look at the people here smiling one by one, in fact, only they know what they are thinking. It's like the two people in the south opposite you, Princess, you can see how lively and happy you are, and how happy they are, like brothers. In fact, the two of them are sworn enemies, and I don't know if they once said bad things about each other behind each other's backs in front of our prince. ”
"I see." Su Mu suddenly realized, sure enough, people's hearts are unpredictable, and they don't know their hearts when they know people's faces. "But Xiaoyue, it's rare that you know all these things. It seems that it takes a lot of effort to find out about these things. ”
"The princess is aware of this, and Xianyue has inquired about this, and she really wants to make the princess a little easier when she encounters anyone or anything." Xianyue said in a low voice: "The princess and Xianyue also said that only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one win a hundred battles. ”
Su Mu nodded in agreement, thinking that this Xianyue was not only a smart person, but also a self-motivated girl. It's still the same sentence, it's hard to draw dragons and tigers, and you don't know your heart. What kind of existence is String Moon, what kind of mind is for her, they have known her for too little now, and they are not completely sure.
When he said these words, the villain had been dancing on the stage for a while, and he was like a fish in water, shining on the stage. If this is the modern era, Xiahou Ling will definitely be able to win the first place in a beauty contest or something.
I have to say that the women in ancient times, especially those who were officials, these big businessmen, and the daughters were all better than the competition. It's a pity that in addition to being excellent in these skills, their status in the eyes of men is too low.
Xiahou Ling's dance of spring in the garden made everyone present marvel and applaud again and again. Even Xiahou Yu, who was sitting next to Su Mu and had never laughed much from beginning to end, couldn't help but clap his hands a few times, and the corners of his mouth went up.
Sure enough, it's a family, and you can't lose face at any time.
Su Mu felt that even if Xiahou Ling's dance was useless this time, Xiahou Yu would definitely have to laugh and take the lead in applauding.
I thought that after this dance, the gift would be given. Su Mu was about to get up again and say goodbye to Xiahou Zhi, and the show came.
I saw Su Mu hugging his hands, and before he bent down, Xiahou Ling on the stage suddenly said: "Uncle, niece only has this little thing left that can be taken on the table, don't dislike it." ”
Xiahou stopped stroking his beard and laughed, "What do you dislike?" After my family Ling'er, she was a female general who danced knives and guns, went into battle to kill the enemy, and sang and danced as a hobby. Just be happy. Besides, Ling'er's dance is vivid, it really seems that everything is recovering, and a hundred flowers are blooming, it must have been a lot of effort before, and the eldest uncle was too late to be happy, satisfied, very satisfied! ”
Xiahou Ling smiled proudly, "Uncle, don't praise me like that." But Ling'er does like to dance or something when she has nothing to do, it's much more interesting than painting and writing. It's just that the dancers in my house are slightly inferior in dance skills...... Eh, yes, uncle, when Ling'er said this, she suddenly remembered that when it comes to dancing, I am afraid that my sister-in-law will be the second in the world, and no one will dare to call it the first! ”
The words that she seemed to suddenly remember and suddenly said were loud, not big or small, and they were being heard by everyone present. Not to mention others, Xianyue's brows immediately furrowed.
Su Mu hadn't reacted yet, and it was boring to listen to them coming and going, so he hurriedly said to Xiahou when he was quiet at the scene: "Father, my daughter-in-law is a little tired and unwell, so I want to go back and rest first." ”
When Xia Hou heard this, the expression on his face was a little complicated.
Su Mu didn't know what to do, but she also sensed that something was wrong, and hurried to see Xianyue, and she almost stuck her head in the ground.
Things don't seem to be good.
The corners of Su Mu's eyes jumped, and he secretly looked at Xiahou Yu.
Xiahou Yu was still drinking unhurriedly, as if everything around him had nothing to do with him.
This perverted guy ......
