Chapter 52: Happy Money

Before the small banquet for the two started, another uninvited guest came.

"So you two are hiding here." Liu Fang walked up the steps with her skirt, and the makeup on her face was sweaty.

Unlike Liu Yan, she is dressed up extraordinarily luxurious and glamorous today, using the most high-quality fat powder eyebrows known as "fog cloud fragrance", and she is wearing a Haitang red butterfly wearing a flower palace dress, and she wears a red gold silk inlaid crown on her head.

I felt hot when I saw her.

Wu Xiaohui sighed: "I thought it was the bride who came, and my eyes called you flashing." ”

Liu Fang glared at her angrily: "Do you want me to borrow you to light the eye-catching ointment and wipe it?" ”

"Thanks, did you eat it? If you don't eat, sit down and eat together, anyway, there are a lot of dishes here. ”

Liu Fang sat down, didn't move the chopsticks, took the tea bowl and looked at the tea soup inside, from the heat to see that the tea became warm or not, Liu Yan and the others were both full of food, and she was still there in a daze.

Gui Yuan led the people to bring water to serve Liu Yan and Miss Wu to clean their hands, but the one who had not eaten put the tea bowl down and put his hands into the copper basin.

was preempted by her, Wu Xiaohui felt that Liu Fang was really strange today, she didn't move when she was called to eat just now, and what was even more strange was that she washed her hands when she didn't eat?

Her hand also reached into the basin, her fingertips raised, and the water beads bounced onto Liu Fang's face.

Cool droplets of water splashed on her face, and Liu Fang suddenly came back to her senses.

"Sister Fang, aren't you hungry?"

"I'm not hungry." Liu Fang wiped her hands clean, and asked the palace maid to serve half a bowl of mung bean porridge for her, and drank it in three sips, which was considered to be the end of the meal.

Wu Xiaohui asked in a low voice, "Sister Fang, is there anything unpleasant?" ”

Seeing her like this, Wu Xiaohui regretted a little that she shouldn't have splashed water in her face.

"Did you meet someone from the Qinwang Mansion?"

Liu Fang and her stepmother, as well as her stepmother's younger brothers and sisters, were not happy. Her mother died early, her brother died in the war, she didn't say a word to King Qin for several years, and the father and daughter were worse than strangers.

"I saw it, but I didn't speak."

Wu Xiaohui felt that she had asked the wrong thing again.

This is called which pot is not opened and which pot is mentioned.

She hurriedly gave Liu Yan a look.

"Third sister, have you ever gone to see the bride?"

Liu Fang nodded: "Look, the bride sprinkled the happy money when she entered the door, and my eunuch also picked up two." Have you seen it? ”

"Show me."

Liu Fang took out two copper coins from the purse, the brand-new yellow and clear Changyuan Tongbao, at first glance, it was a new coin that had not been used once from the Minting Division, and each copper coin was wrapped with a thin red rope, which looked really joyful.

"I heard that I spilled two big baskets of money."

The people who come to the banquet today are not short of this penny or two pennies, but it is an old custom of grabbing joy, saying that they are grabbing happy money, and there will be happy events in the family this year.

Wu Xiaohui picked up a coin and took a closer look, and said with a smile: "Sister Fang also took two, I think my sister will have a happy event this year, or a good thing comes in pairs." ”

Liu Fang didn't care about her jokes, and said indifferently: "Then I'll give you one, so that we will all be happy." ”

Wu Xiaohui blushed instead.

A young girl touches the joy of other people's brides, so what else can it be for? Of course, it's to find someone.

Last time Princess Fuyu's mansion banquet, she also went.

"Do you want Sister Yan'er?"

Liu Yan shook his head: "I don't want this." ”

Wu Xiaohui put away the copper coin with a smile: "Then I'm welcome." ”

There are so many girls of the right age in the clan who want to get married, and there will be many happy events to be done in the next year.

"At the end of the year, there is a happy event for Princess Xiyu, and the cousin of the Zhao family is out of the cabinet, all of which are in the moon."

As soon as Wu Xiaohui said it, Liu Yan also remembered that there were almost four months left, and the second sister was going to get married.

The palace will become more and more deserted, and after the second sister gets married, she will be the third sister.

At that moment, only she and Liu Yu were left in the palace with big eyes.

Belch! Thinking of this, Liu Yan suddenly felt a chill.

Spare her, she doesn't want to be like Liu Yutian's black-eyed chicken, you peck me and I bite you, it's neither interesting nor beneficial.

In the past, the eldest sister also talked about her, saying that Liu Yu "is young and has no mother, don't fight with her", Liu Yan didn't take the initiative to cause trouble, and couldn't stop Liu Yu from always messing with her.

Sometimes, I feel pitiful for her, such as when she celebrates her birthday. But most of the time I still think she's quite hateful.

Liu Tan and his newlywed wife Ma entered the palace on the second day to greet the emperor and empress. Although the wedding was completed, it did not go through the big festival clan to recognize relatives, and the Ma family did not have an official treasure, so it could not be regarded as a wife in terms of patriarchy.

When he came to the palace, Ma didn't have such a thick fat powder as he did on the day he got married, and his complexion was really not white, but his eyebrows and eyes were beautiful, his manners were appropriate, he didn't talk much, and he looked very quiet, much stronger than Zhu's.

If he marries another spicy person like the Zhu family, Liu Yan feels that the queen mother has to be angry.

Queen Cao left them for lunch before leaving the palace, Liu Yan felt that the queen mother was purely giving face to the new daughter-in-law, and she wanted to replace it with the second brother, so that the queen mother would not leave him to eat in Yilan Palace.

Ma's eating is very delicate, as if he hasn't eaten. It may be the first time I entered the palace to meet the emperor and queen, and I panicked at my mother-in-law, so I was restrained.

Liu Yan counted, she probably ate three mouthfuls of food and drank two mouthfuls of soup from the palace maid in the bowl. The dish was still Queen Cao, who said, "This eggplant is good, you can also try it." So the palace maid coerced the second prince and the second princess and put it in a small plate, and the two of them owed a debt and said thank the queen mother, and then ate the food.

It's called an awkwardness.

Liu Yan has eaten at Yilan Hall many times, and he comes almost every day, and he has never eaten so awkwardly.

If Empress Cao told her, "This fish is good." She must eat one, no, three bites, and by the way, she greeted: "The queen mother also eats." ”

It's like now, this is not a family meal, it's like the emperor's former courtiers playing right. If you eat it like this, you can't taste the best food.

Originally, Liu Yan was not restrained in Yilan Palace, but seeing that Ma was sitting there with her back straight, she was embarrassed to throw herself into her mother's arms and be lazy.

finally survived until the two of them said goodbye and left the palace, Liu Yan's waist collapsed suddenly, and he beckoned and shouted: "Yunluo, come and pinch me, my back is sore." ”

Empress Cao made her laugh: "Where did the kid come from?" While motioning for Yun Luo to hurry over and rub her.

Liu Yan lay on the couch, watched the palace maids pack up the tea cup cushions and go out, and asked lazily: "Queen Mother, what do you think of my second sister-in-law?" ”

"When we met just now, how can we conclude that a person is good or bad? It has to be the director to find out. ”

"Let's talk about the surface."

Superficial......

Empress Cao only said: "The rules are good. ”

This is of course, from the time the family affairs were decided, the palace sent someone to teach Ma, almost two years of hard work, as long as you are not a fool, you should learn it.

"Anything else?"

This time, Queen Cao just smiled and ignored her.
