Chapter 519: Chinese New Year's Eve Banquet
"I'm giving you a chance, you just want to ask about such a boring thing?" Yang Ling sneered, and resumed his cold and temperatureless tone, "Little trick, with intentions but vicious, if you want to come to that pickled place, you can't get out of any clean people." Rong Nushi, I know the purpose of your visit, but you don't have a chance. β
Yang Ling didn't answer Rong He's question, which in his opinion was really stupid. If this little poison can poison him, then he doesn't have to think about going to Beijing to take revenge.
Rong You's expression was gloomy, he gritted his teeth, and asked again, "What are you going to do with us?" β
"Disposition? The lady thinks too highly of me, and I have no right to dispose of you. Wait for General Mu Xiao to be free, and I'll ask you how to deal with you. β
The last sentence is pure lie, what does this have to do with Mu Nanyun? When did Mu Nanyun become his lord again? He just wanted to see these people live in fear.
Yang Ling no longer stayed. He has been here long enough, Qu Xiaobai must be in a hurry.
Rong You still had a lot to ask, but Yang Ling no longer gave her a chance to ask.
Stepping out of the house, a bloody smell was permeating the cold wind, but there were no corpses on the ground, so naturally Ah Da had already asked people to clean up the corpses of those palace guards.
Ah Da. Together with Ah Liu, he saluted Yang Ling: "Lord." β
Seeing Ah Liu appear, Yang Ling immediately understood that Xiaobai was in a hurry. His speech sounded so slow, but his steps were much faster than usual, "Let those two cooks go back to their homes for the New Year." Here, it's good to only supply food, and they take care of the rest. β
Ah Da answered: "Yes, Lord." β
"I'll work hard for you tonight, and I'll have someone take your place tomorrow."
After Yang Ling finished speaking, he hurriedly got on the horse and left. Ah Liu also hurriedly followed.
The left-behind Ah Da smiled, hard work? He really didn't feel hard, although he has lived a life of being a master over the years, but he will never forget who pulled a few of their homeless children out of the snow in the first place, just standing guard, what is it?
But since they have torn their faces, there is no need for them to hide in the dark, Ah Da beckoned all the brothers, and told each of them to find a warm room to go to the cat, just keep an eye on it so that nothing happens.
At noon, everyone gathered in the front yard hall and ate the best banquet sent from the house, which was a very pleasant day.
In Ronghe's room, the door frame had fallen half because of the fight just now, and the cold wind poured in, freezing so cold that people only shivered. Mei'er took a quilt and wrapped it for Rong He, and said timidly: "The door of this room is broken, my lord, shall we change rooms?" You can't stand the cool breeze right now. β
Jin Lin struggled and said, "Let's go to my room first, my room is warm." β
Rong You could only nod and agree, Songyu and Mei'er helped her up, helped her to Jin Lin's room, Jin Lin also followed, and said, "The adults live here, and the inverted seat next to it is still empty, I'll just go there and make do with it." β
Tolerance or non-committal, this matter is so decided.
Song Yu poured a glass of water, fed Rong He and drank two sips, she looked at Rong He's pale face, remembered what Yang Ling said, and couldn't help asking: "My lord, Yang Ling said that you were poisoned, and this poison has been in your body for ten years, is this true?" β
When it comes to this poison, Rong He is a pain that scratches his heart and scratches his liver. Isn't this poison in the body for ten years? It is both poison and not poison, it is just a loyal medicine that Concubine Rong didn't trust her and gave her to drink.
Seeing that Rong Yu didn't speak, Song Yu already understood eight or nine points, and she asked tentatively and stupidly: "My lord, if Yang Ling can wake you up, does he have a way to detoxify?" β
Rong He glanced at her and sneered, "Then do you think he will detoxify me?" β
Songyu lowered her head.
Yes, how could Yang Ling detoxify her? They originally thought that when they came out of the palace, they would not be able to wait for the superior, but when they arrived here, Yang Ling was not so scared that they didn't have the ability, but as a result, they were placed under house arrest on the first day they came, and they didn't take them in their eyes at all!
It's no wonder that even a strong woman like the Fifth Princess has returned to Yang Ling in vain.
The people in the front yard are eating and drinking, and they don't care if they live or die. Song Yu saw that it was noon, Yang Ling had removed all the cooks, and no one would come to bring them food, so she asked Mei'er to find Zhang Yinu and prepare lunch together.
Mei'er didn't want to stay by Rong You's side, so she was busy looking for the doctor girl.
Yang Ling returned to the house, it happened to be the time for dinner, as soon as he entered the house, Qu Xiaobai plunged into his arms, "I'm worried about death!" Why did you go and see that woman in person? β
"What, I'm afraid I won't be able to fight her?"
Yang Ling pulled her out of his arms, looked at her big watery eyes, and asked softly.
"Hmm. She's too insidious. I'm afraid you'll capsize in the gutter. You don't want to take any more risks in the future, I'm worried. β
"Got it, I won't do risky things in the future."
Having said that, both of them knew that there were many things to take risks in the future, it was impossible for Yang Ling not to take risks, and it was impossible for Qu Xiaobai to stop him from doing what he had to do.
Qu Xiaobai threw himself into Yang Ling's arms again, and said aggrievedly: "You have to compensate me today." It made me angry last night, and it worries me today. β
Yang Ling smiled, her ability to take the opportunity to fight a rake is really ...... It's getting more and more sophisticated.
"Okay, if you say how to compensate, I will compensate." Yang Ling chuckled softly in her ear.
"I haven't thought about it yet, let me think about it, you eat with me first, and wait until you're hungry." Qu Xiaobai shouted towards the compartment: "Luoluo, notify the kitchen, it's time to open the table." β
This meal at noon on the Chinese New Year's Eve is the beginning of the reunion dinner, and it is naturally to be eaten with everyone.
Xin Qingjun went to the mansion in the county, and he couldn't come back until the evening, Yun Buxian Yang Chun and the others all went back to their homes for the New Year, and there were only Dong Lang, the Chen family brothers and the brothers from Ah Er to Ah Liu, plus Su Si, who was taken over by the Chen family brothers, there were a lot of people, but they didn't open two tables, so they got together at one table, and the rest of the stewards got together at one table, Ah Liu saw that there were many people here, so he automatically went to the tables of the stewards, all of them were their own families, and there was nothing to pick on. The rest of the little maids and the dumb slaves in the backyard also gathered a few tables, all of which were placed in the flower hall.
In addition, there are a few special tables, placed in the corner, far away from the tables of those maids, and the atmosphere is not the same as this side, although it is the same joyful atmosphere, they are very faint there. They are the shadow guards of Zhuangzi, and they have long been trained to be people who do not even leak out their emotions.
Qu Xiaobai didn't care about those pedantic ethics of respect and inferiority at all, in her opinion, whether it was a shadow guard or a maid, it was a kind of profession, and people had paid for most of their hard work, why not let them have a good year? But in the eyes of the maid, it is a great honor to not only eat at the banquet in the master's house, but also with the masters.
Lin Hutou also hesitated at first: "Is this appropriate?" β
Qu Xiaobai told him that there is nothing inappropriate, since they all live in this courtyard, they are a family, how can it be said that the family does not eat together?
Lin Hutou is also accustomed to seeing the master and his wife acting open-mindedly, and they are never rigid in the subsections, so they are very happy to arrange it.
Yang Ling naturally has no opinion, although he doesn't like to be lively, but he loves Qu Xiaobai, loves the house and Wu, everything Qu Xiaobai loves, that is, everything he loves.
Before eating, the little maids wanted to come and kowtow to thank you, but Qu Xiaobai politely refused: "It's not Chinese New Year's Eve, you kowtow at this time to thank you, there is no red envelope to take." β
provoked all the little maids to laugh, and their heads didn't go down.
Qu Xiaobai said again: "I, I don't like to see you kneel and kowtow at every turn, I love to listen to an auspicious word, you start now, move your little heads, come over at night to tell me, say well, there are red envelopes, but you are not allowed to repeat Oh, there are no red envelopes to repeat." β
This is interesting and tight, the meaning is good, and there are red envelopes to take, and after the maids returned to their seats, they began to rack their brains to think.
On all the tables, the dishes are the same, and there is no priority, Qu Xiaobai is very lacking in eating a dish, he can't do it, and he is not very greedy, but he works dressing up.
Today, she is wearing the lilac dress that Yang Hongxia made for her, with a newly made neck ornament tied around her neck, and the whole person is lined high, and she can't tell that she is already a pregnant woman who is six months pregnant. From time to time, a little maid peeked over and whispered: "Our lady is really beautiful today." β
"Silly, when is our lady not beautiful?"
"I mean, today was extraordinarily beautiful. Madame really knows how to dress up. β
"Nonsense, our lady designs clothes, so can she not dress up?"
The little guys at the next table couldn't bear the loneliness, and handed over the words from afar: "Our lord, that's the amazing person, let me tell you, I have also served several masters, and I have never seen our master so good-looking!" β
"Come on, come on, come on, search, what world can you see? Our lord and wife are a match made in heaven, a perfect match! β
"Okay, okay, keep all the good things for the night, maybe you can get two more red envelopes."
Qu Xiaobai snuggled beside Yang Ling, listening to these chirping voices, and felt very funny in his heart, "Hehe, the two of us have been praised." "Jiao Xiao, like a child who has been praised in kindergarten.
"Well, I'm still praising you a lot."
"Hee-hee, that's because I'm better than you."
Tablemates: Hey, aren't these two naΓ―ve?
Because there will be a dinner party, the luncheon is not so complicated, and everyone doesn't drink much, just on a point-to-order basis, but they are happy to have a reunion dinner together.
From beginning to end, the most incompatible person belongs to Sus, Qu Xiaobai kept persuading Suss to drink during the banquet, and told everyone, Brother Suss is good wine, you pour him a few more glasses. It's as if there was no such thing as before.
Seuss was indeed a good wine, but on such an occasion, it was the first time he had seen it, and he didn't dare to drink more.
Yang Ling's followers swore that they would pour him a few more cups at night, so that Su Si wanted to escape.
After eating, the maids acted together, cleaned the table, and the ground was cleaned, and there was nothing to do in the afternoon, Qu Xiaobai and Yang Ling pushed Pai Gow for a while, Ah Si was a little bit of a good bet, and also took the lead in placing a bet, Qu Xiaobai also took two taels of silver out to bet on himself to win. As a result, everyone bet that the master would let the lady, because the lady bet that she won.
