Chapter 450: On the Table
The luncheon on Chinese New Year's Eve is commonly known as the "Hehuan Banquet", the female relatives will also eat a few glasses of wine, and the banquet is still staggered laughter, regardless of whether there are contradictions in the past, after all, it must be a harmonious group today, even the old lady and the second old lady put aside the grievances and hatred as if they were intimate concubines, and Mrs. Peng simply teamed up with the third lady and the fourth lady, and took the lead in launching an "attack" on the wine glasses of the rest of the daughters-in-law.
The girls' seats are also set on the side of the openwork screen, which is less restrained than usual, after all, all the people present are their own families, there are no outsiders, and it is harmless to talk and laugh crazy and make trouble, but it adds a lot of joy to the Chinese New Year's Eve.
The spring return is busy with the lively atmosphere on both sides of the table, and after eating a meal, I am tired and my feet hurt.
The feast is not considered to be a banquet until it is not right, and the activities of the female dependents are very free, and you can find a room to close your eyes and take a rest when you are tired, or accompany the elders to drink tea and watch the play, the daughter-in-law and the girls are not allowed to play together, and the flowers and flowers are played and the chess is played, or a few people get together to play horses and hang, and even the maids have to play with the grass, which is very lively. If you are really tired and can't hold on, it's not rude to say goodbye and go home, unlike men, who can't go first if they have to have a banquet at night.
The old lady was in high spirits today, and she didn't mention the lunch break, she listened to the play with relish, and she was accompanied by Mrs. Peng's inseparable service as usual, but it was still Mama Su who had time to sit on the side and drink tea and gourd seeds, and the old lady was slightly enough to talk to the four old ladies: "Asu is also old now, I can't still work her on the New Year's Festival, and today is a family gathering in the garden for the festival, and I also let her not have to abide by the rules, but also use it for a while." ”
The fourth old lady smiled and agreed: "An old family like Mama Su should be honored and used at this age, so it shows that our Xuan Zhutang respects the old and respects the virtuous." Even if the second daughter-in-law has worked hard, she can't be used today, and she has wasted her heart to Zhang Luo's Chinese New Year's Eve wine banquet over the years, and I envy my sister-in-law for having such a filial and capable daughter-in-law. ”
"It's easy to get the call of the ancestors, and fortunately, I am young and nimble, the ancestors will not feel unbearable in their hearts, and the daughter-in-law has the opportunity to fulfill her filial piety, and she has won the favor of the ancestors, where do you dare to be hard." Mrs. Peng immediately flattered.
But if you take a closer look at the meaning of these words, the old lady's other daughters-in-law and a granddaughter-in-law are not younger than Mrs. Peng, and none of them are frail and sickly, but they are not in a hurry to serve, isn't it that they are neither happy with the old lady nor have the idea of filial piety?
The fourth old lady didn't hear that there was not much in the Taishi's Mansion for the middle feed
Ping, very wisely, did not follow Mrs. Peng's words, and continued to listen to the drama with relish.
However, he was indeed muttering secretly in his heart: although it was said that the sister-in-law was indeed doing something wrong with the money and wealth of the Zhaomen Gongzhong to help her mother's family, when the daughter-in-law of Ting Ge checked the accounts, she found that the deficit thought that it was the daughter-in-law of Zhoucheng who was not making trouble, and how much she hurt the face of the sister-in-law for fear of being angered, but today is the Chinese New Year's Eve, and it is the first time that the daughter-in-law of Ting Ge has participated in the Hehuan banquet after entering, in front of so many clansmen, she did not even come to the sister-in-law to talk and laugh, and did not even go through the scene, it was inevitable that she was a little overdone, and she was not virtuous and docile.
Chungui is indeed deliberately far away from the old lady, not at all feeling that she is not virtuous and unfilial, you must know that the old lady can save fire in her heart, she stepped forward again, so angry that the old lady can't even eat the Chinese New Year's Eve meal is not virtuous and unfilial, saying that the old lady can't eat the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner at night, but in the final analysis, she is to blame, and she will not take the initiative to fan the flames.
Compared with her, the third lady and the fourth lady were more innocent, obviously busy greeting the rest of the relatives and elders in order to fulfill the friendship of the landlord, but they also ended up with an unvirtuous and unfilial slander.
The third lady is playing chess with the second old lady, and after a while, she will lose the upper hand, and the second old lady seems to be eager to try when she sees the wood, so she takes the initiative to invite the battle, and the second old lady is also happy to fight, and the second old lady is fighting for me, the third lady is watching, and she sees the maid Yingxian in her house coming over.
"The slave heard that the fifth master was angry with Liang Sanye for some reason, and it seems that she was slapped by Liang Sanye and hid in Wenji Tower."
The third master of Liang said by Yingxian is Zhao Lanliang, the son of the fourth room, and his temperament is very impatient, and he has had conflicts with Lan Fang in the sect.
The third lady raised her feet and went to Wenji Tower.
Chungui has been paying attention to the third lady, and she has witnessed the whispering of the master and servant, and she also saw the Qu out who was "afraid that the world will not be chaotic" because of her boredom and went to Wenjilou to see the excitement, and then Chungui withdrew her gaze.
She didn't care about how Mrs. Peng died, and was worried about whether Sister Lan Xin would die.
didn't wait long, and Chun Gui saw Jian Qing walking this way.
"The second girl asked the slave maid to invite the eldest grandmother to go to the kite." After Jian Qing saluted, he explained his intention.
"Second sister, this son is in the kite?" Spring return pretended to be surprised.
"Yes, the second girl was really worried because of the events of the last day, and she cried for a while when she avoided the kite, and the slave was incompetent, so she couldn't comfort the second girl, so she had to suggest that the second girl admit her mistake to the eldest grandmother, and the second girl is true today
However, it was not intentional to burn Feng's mother's hand, and the slave maid thought that as long as the second girl explained well, the eldest grandmother would definitely not tell the uncle about this trivial matter, causing the second girl to be punished by the uncle again. ”
When Jian Qing said this, even the four old ladies heard it and turned their faces to take a look.
The second sister was so sad and uneasy, Chungui should go to comfort and persuade her, so she followed Jianqing to Jijijitai.
On a cold day, the kite-tais are still leaking on all sides, although it is not in a secluded place, no one is wandering here at this time, Zhao Lanxin is wearing a red cloak, and when she returns from a distance, she sees her standing in the railing on the left side of a row of stairs, and she is ready to die at a glance.
Chungui sighed secretly.
The two sisters-in-law became face-to-face distances, and they didn't say a word, seeing Lan Xin retreating step by step towards the edge of the stairs, Chungui, who knew what her sister-in-law was doing, stretched out her hand and grabbed the other party's forearm, she couldn't indulge her sister-in-law to die, she really fell down the stairs, and implemented a bitter plan to slander that was doomed to failure, how did she know that Lan Xin was pulled by her, but stretched out a foot......
A miserable scream.
Jian Qing fell on her back gorgeously because of her own girl's trip.
Spring Return: !!
Fortunately, the stone steps outside the platform are not built on a long slope, and there is a platform buffer every seven or eight steps, but Jian Qing fell like this without warning, and the back of his head hit the ground, I don't know if he is dead or alive.
Suddenly, a cold wind pressed people, as if it was directly filled with the internal organs of the spring return.
She had never hated Zhao Lanxin as much as she did at this time.
She looked at Zhao Lanxin coldly and exclaimed, and walked down the stairs tremblingly, but she didn't dare to look directly at Jian Qing, who was suspected of having fallen to death, and called twice in a fake way, stood up and yelled at her: "Gu, you are so vicious!" ”
"Grandma, what should I do?" It was Ju Xi who asked, all her attention just now was also on the second girl, for fear that she would push the eldest grandmother down the stairs instead, she didn't expect the second girl to stumble, causing Jian Qing to fall so miserably.
"Go and call Qiao Zhuang here, it's not appropriate to move if you fall and hurt someone, I hope it's still too late." Chungui said expressionlessly.
She didn't pay attention to Zhao Lanxin's accusations at all, went down, squatted, and tried her pulse.
After a little relief, he rolled his eyelids and looked coldly at Lan Xin, who turned his face to the side.
"Jianqing is still saved, it's your luck, and it's your brother's luck."
Chun Hui no longer wants to say one more word at this moment.
