Chapter Forty-Six: The Banquet of the Chai Mansion
"How can there be a banquet tomorrow, and the reason why I just posted today? It's too eager. ”
Xie Jingyi was a little surprised, after all, when she saw Chai Youchen this morning, she didn't say a word.
Zhai Shi glanced at her with disgust, "You kid, you don't know how thick the sky is." When will the Guogong Mansion hold a banquet, and will it be possible to discuss it with you? The second son of Chai has personally come to the door to deliver the post, alas, this child is really a good child, not to mention being handsome, and his mouth is sweet......"
What's that? Xie Jingyi's body was shocked, Ah Niang, I am stupid for three years and I can't deceive me! You've just been pregnant, and your eyes and ears are clear, who do you say has a sweet mouth?
Chai Youchen?
Xie Jingyi imagined Chai Youchen's obedience, and said sweet words, "Hiccup~~~"
Is it okay to be scared to burp?
"You kid, why are you still hiccups, you play outside all day long, where is a bit of a lady's show. Hurry up, drink some water. Or I'll scare you, listen to the older generation, and you won't burp if you scare it! ”
Xie Jingyi had a bitter face, "Hiccup...... Hiccup......"
But mother, I was so scared that I hiccuped by you, and I was scared? Could it be the legendary fight against poison with poison?
No matter how Xie Jingyi leathered, the next day it was still prepared by Zhai's family, dressed neatly, with bright bells hanging in his ears, warm jade pendants on his waist, and a small lake green skirt, like a weed in spring. The weather had not yet warmed up, so she asked Qingping to dig out the white rabbit fur from the cage and put on the hand warmer before she stopped.
Zhai's early, let the porter keep an eye on it, and counted with his fingers, which ones went to the Qi State Mansion. Xie Baolin's official position is not big, it is not too small, it is not too early, it is not too late for people to say flattery, it is not too late, and it is not too late for people to say that the sky is high and the earth is thick.
The two Zhejiang roads have the same Kyushu and two armies, but today they are eager to feast only in Hangzhou.
Although it was only a few feet, it was impossible to go on foot, and the family squeezed into the carriage and soon arrived at the Mansion of the State of Qi.
This is the first time Xie Jingyi has come.
A whole alley, except for the small courtyard of their house, the rest belonged to the Duke of Qi. I heard that in the past, this mansion was the private residence of a family surnamed Mao. The ancestors of the Mao officials entered the cabinet to worship the prime minister, and later came to Hangzhou to raise and build such a mansion.
At that time, the Zhai family bought the courtyard in order to pay for the silver happily because of the prosperity of this family, which was beneficial to the imperial examination.
As soon as he walked to the door, he saw Chai Youchen standing there, like a black Dinghai Divine Needle.
Especially there was not much welcome expression on his face, the guests who came here had a feeling of going and not returning, eating the Nahongmen banquet, Xie Jingyi had seen several little ladies in front of him before, and he didn't know how to put his hands and feet.
Chai Youchen saw Xie Baolin and Zhai's family, and only nodded politely, which made Xie Jingyi breathe a sigh of relief.
She was afraid that this guy would rush up with an arrow step, and affectionately said to her uncle and aunt, then their family was afraid that they would be torn apart by someone.
This time I entered the gate of the Qi State Mansion, and I immediately felt the difference.
This mansion occupies a large area, very vast, this is enough, three steps in the house, one scene, five steps and one wonder, strange stones, flowers and plants can be seen everywhere, the shadow can be heard about the murmuring water accompanied by the sound of birdsong.
If the flowers bloom again in spring, I don't know what a beautiful scenery it is.
In the courtyard, there were already a lot of people here. Because there were elders present, there was no distinction between the front yard and the back yard, there were men and women who knew each other, playing chess in a group, laughing and laughing, quite noisy.
Qi Guogong was a tall and thin man with green tendons on the back of his hands. Chai Youchen was born seven points similar to him, except that one is a cold-faced Langjun, and the other is squinting, smiling, and looks very good-tempered.
Xie Jingyi shrunk his neck and stepped forward with his family to salute, it was really cold today, and I don't know how other little ladies in spring clothes feel......
"This is the third lady of your family, born with a good appearance, and looks like a blessed person."
Xie Baolin was stunned for a moment, and glanced at Xie Jingyi, "It's still a coquettish child, thanks to the blessing of the Duke of the Kingdom, if you don't make trouble for me in the future, even if it's a great blessing for your parents." ”
Qi Guogong patted Xie Baolin's shoulder with empathy when he heard this, "No, if my Erlang doesn't mess with the world, then I will be so happy that I will burn incense and worship the Buddha." It's still a good daughter, my daughter is well-behaved and caring, I only have two sons, and I don't have this blessing. ”
Xie Jingyi felt that if he was a turtle, he would definitely want to shrink his neck, hands and feet into his shell.
The Duke of Qi is good, but his eyes are not good, and he doesn't praise a beauty like her second sister, but praises her for her good looks...... Besides, when you generally praise others for being blessed, aren't you saying, "Oh, you're so fat, and your face is so wide that you can't boast anything other than blessings......
She already felt that the faint gaze behind her gave her a thousand arrows through her heart.
……
After seeing the Duke of Qi, Xie Jingyi followed the Zhai family to meet Mrs. Yi. This lady said that she was a lady, but in fact she was just a favorite concubine by the side of Duke Qi. She was born with a silver face, not very good-looking, about thirty years old, wearing a lilac dress, squinting a pair of eyes, and treating people quite kindly.
Although he was born with Qi Guogong, he gave people a feeling that was quite similar.
In her previous life, Xie Jingyi had also seen her.
Mrs. Yi has nothing to do, and she has always taken care of the back house of Duke Qi.
At this time, no one had yet arrived, Xie Jingxian could sit still, and accompanied Zhai in a bunch of ladies, Xie Jingyi and Xie Jingyin went to see Guan Huizhi and Song Guangxi throwing pots.
When Song Guangxi saw Xie Jingyi, he shoved the arrow into Song Guangyao's hand, "You can be counted back." The stinky girl surnamed Xu left, I wanted to find you, but I pounced; Later, I heard that you met bandits on the way, and you were in a hurry, and when it came to the Shangyuan Festival, I wanted to ask you to see the lights, but you haven't returned yet. ”
"You are really, my aunt's birthday, you actually gave her her favorite Chunjiang beauty picture. Although it is said to be rubbing, it is also intentional. My aunt didn't want to accept it, but she was really reluctant, and she had to recite it at home 800 times a day, you are so good, why aren't you her daughter, but it annoys me to death. ”
Xie Jingyi smiled slightly, she could clearly feel that Song Guangxi got along with her and got a lot closer.
She thought about it, and didn't mention the bandits, and said, "The eldest aunt is very gracious, so we will stay in our hometown for a little longer." Speaking of which, I promise that your clothes haven't been delivered yet, it's February, so just make a spring shirt. ”
When Song Guangxi heard this, he rubbed her face, "You still said that I still plan to wear it during the Yuan Festival." ”
As he spoke, a weak voice interjected, "That...... Thank you so much for that day. I didn't expect to see you here today. ”
Xie Jingyi's scalp was numb, and when he turned his head, he saw the delicate Liu Yingying.
Song Guangxi pulled Xie Jingyi, rolled his eyes, patted his chest and said, "I'm scared to death, I thought the book had come true, and everyone was looking for him thousands of times, but Xie Sannan was a foot away from Song Guangxi...... I thought it was that disciple who dared to tease my sister, but it turned out to be Mrs. Liu! ”
