Chapter 71: The Strange Family Banquet (1)
Chunxia Garden
Aunt Deng sat in front of the dresser and looked at herself in the mirror, and the joy on her face couldn't be stopped.
Just now, Aunt Deng got the news of someone from Deng Mansion and told her about Deng Fubu's bureau and the conversation with Shang Rong, and asked Aunt Deng to wait for news in the mansion. Aunt Deng, who originally didn't report her hope, received someone from the Qin family to ask her to attend the family banquet in the evening, which made Aunt Deng have an idea in her heart.
I'm still on ground, isn't it a good sign to let me go to the family banquet now? Besides, I haven't heard of a family banquet in Fuzhong before. Now that he suddenly said that he was going to have a family banquet and let himself participate, it seems that the affairs of the Deng Mansion are not far away.
Today is the end of the year, the things arranged by the Deng Mansion must have been done before, and Shang Rong also set up a family banquet today, it seems that Shang Rong has thought about it during this time, and Aunt Deng is more and more happy when she thinks that she is about to become Shang Rong's wife.
"Auntie, Madame has sent someone to say that there is a banquet, please come over." When I came down and came in, I saw Aunt Deng's smile, and I couldn't help but shout 'Aunt Deng' in my heart.
But at this time, Aunt Deng's mood is so good, and she doesn't care about the title of her subordinates.
"Go and call the second lady and go to the family banquet with me."
"Yes."
After a while, Shang Yao came to Aunt Deng's yard.
"Mother, what are you calling me for, I haven't thought about what hairstyle to go out at night." Shang Yao complained, and was still thinking about playing at night, "I'm going to go out in a while, if my mother has anything to say, don't delay me from going out to see the lights." ”
"Okay, okay, I know you're going out in the evening." Aunt Deng said helplessly, and then pulled Shang Yao over, "I called you here to go to the family banquet." Your father set up a feast for us to attend. ”
When Shang Yao heard Aunt Deng's words, she obviously didn't believe it.
"You kid, my mother can't lie to you." Aunt Deng pretended to be angry when she saw Shang Yao's questioning face.
"No, how could my mother lie to me." Shang Yao believed it, "What the hell is going on?" Isn't my mother still grounded? Why would you suddenly be asked to attend a family dinner? And I didn't hear that there was going to be a family banquet in the house. ”
"It's your grandfather's work." Aunt Deng smiled and said this.
"It turned out to be my grandfather." Shang Yao nodded in understanding.
"Let's clean up, let's go to dinner, and it's not too late to go and see the lights after dinner."
"But what if they don't wait for me, big sister?" Shang Yao said worriedly, of course it is good to be able to participate in the family banquet, but it is more important to watch the lights.
"Don't worry. Since it's a family banquet, your eldest sister naturally wants to participate in it. Aunt Deng pointed out the key point, and Shang Yao suddenly realized, "Yes, if you have a family banquet, the eldest brother and eldest sister will also participate, why didn't I expect it." ”
Then he was relieved, "Mother, wait for me for a while, I'll clean up and come." ”
"Well, let's go." Aunt Deng smiled and watched Shang Yao leave.
After tonight, my daughter is the concubine of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and her status is a step higher, even if she goes to see the lights at night, and meets the prince or even the prince of the family she likes, she is not afraid that her identity will not be matched.
Soon, Shang Yao changed her clothes, combed her hairstyle, and brought her maid over to Chunxia Garden, Aunt Deng looked at her daughter in front of her, her heart was full of pride, and Shang Yao's little face that was about to grow became more and more exquisite.
"Let's go, someone else, your father has been waiting for a long time." Aunt Deng has always only had Shang Rong in her heart, and she used to be now.
Shang Yao nodded, and the group walked towards the front hall.
Funai.
Aunt Hua and the others, who were heading to the front hall, met in the middle hall.
The three of them nodded, and the nurse behind Aunt Hua was holding Shang Rong in her hands, and Shang Rong was tightly wrapped, leaving only a small face outside.
After Aunt Zhong and Aunt Hua said hello, they all walked towards Shang Rong, looking at the child in the nurse's hand, and their hearts were warm.
Aunt Zhong stretched out her hand and touched Shang Rong's cold little face, "The little young master is so cute." ”
"My sister will be able to have such a cute child in a few days," Aunt Hua flattered.
"Hey, sister, I don't have the blessing of my sister, and I became a man in one fell swoop." Aunt Zhong shook the handkerchief in her hand, although she said this, she was eager to give birth to a boy in her heart, but it was too early to say that it was too early to give birth to a boy or a girl.
Aunt Hua also did not expose Aunt Zhong's duplicity.
"My sisters are all blessed, unlike me, not to mention a son, it's good to be a daughter, you don't have to be lonely, multiple children can be lively." Aunt Gao looked at the child in the nurse's arms with envy on her face.
Then he looked at Aunt Zhong's belly, which was already pregnant.
She was ransomed by Shang Rong in the Qinglou, not to mention that her identity is not as good as Aunt Hua, she is the daughter of an official family, even Aunt Zhong is not up to her, Aunt Zhong is also a daughter of a good family, how can a woman who has been in the Qinglou be allowed to be pregnant?
It is precisely because of Aunt Gao's self-knowledge that she is extraordinarily quiet and self-conscious in the house, does not compete for favor or flattery, and is even more well-behaved to the Qin family, the head of the house.
Aunt Hua and Aunt Zhong glanced at each other, and then looked at Aunt Gao.
"Sister doesn't need to be envious, several of our sisters are begging for a living under the master's mother, we should help each other, we didn't have much contact in the past, in the future, my sister will often come to my yard to see the children." Aunt Hua was the first to speak.
"Yes, my sister shouldn't always be bored in her own yard, I'm pregnant now, and it's not easy to go out, if my sister doesn't mind, I can come to my sister's yard more often, and chat with my sister to relieve boredom." Aunt Zhong took Aunt Hua's words and looked at Aunt Gao with a smile.
The enthusiasm shown by the two made Aunt Gao stunned for a moment, and then reacted.
Aunt Hua has something to say, and Aunt Zhong has a show-off component in her words, Aunt Gao is used to seeing it in the Qinglou, and after thinking about it, she still thinks that it is better to go out of the yard less in the future, so as not to be a target, and she can be handled at will as a mud.
"I don't know, why did Madame suddenly let me attend the family banquet today?" Aunt Zhong gathered her cloak and looked at the other two.
"I haven't heard of a family banquet before, maybe there is something big to announce." Aunt Hua said the guess in her heart.
"What big deal can be? Isn't the big event in the house the eldest young master marrying a wife after the year? What else is there to be a big deal? Could it be that the eldest lady's marriage is decided? ”
"It's a matter in the yard of the Master Mother. How can we speculate at will? "Aunt Hua didn't answer Aunt Zhong's words.
Aunt Gao listened to the words of Aunt Hua and Aunt Zhong, lowered her head and didn't want to answer.
"Even if you know what to discuss and what not to discuss, you should keep to yourself, not talk about it in public." The Qin family and the others happened to pass by the middle hall, and when they heard the conversation of the aunts, they didn't step forward, but listened to it.
It wasn't until Aunt Hua finished the last sentence that Shang Liyuan spoke up indifferently.
This sentence scared Aunt Hua and the others a lot, and after being stunned, they hurriedly saluted and greeted them.
"I've seen Madame, Young Master, and Miss." Then he stood in a row in a regular manner, lowering his head and not daring to look at the faces of the Qin family and the others.
