Chapter 73: The Birthday Banquet Turmoil
Min Chulin climbed neatly at this time, got up and said, "Madam, please don't blame my sister, I accidentally ......"
But seeing Fuyi coming and handing her his handkerchief, Min Chulin was stunned, and when he entered the door, he seemed to have just seen Fuyi.
"Thanks to Miss Min, the citron helped pass the dishes, the little girl's thin skin and tender flesh were afraid of being hot, so she almost lost her hand and splashed it on the face of her sisters, but Miss Min pushed it away, and she herself fell." Fuyi turned around and explained to the second lady, and called the citron again, "Look at your frizziness, don't you kowtow to the young lady to compensate for it." ”
The citron was clever, and when he came up, he knelt down for Min Chulin.
The girls in the room were dumbfounded, and no one thought that they could say this about what happened just now.
The second lady believed it, sat down on the side with the daughter of the Min family, and said distressedly: "Good boy, I didn't burn you, I am really the granddaughter of the old man, so kind and good-natured." ”
Mother Zhou stepped forward and said, "The slave maid leads the girl to change her clothes, madam, you and the young lady go back to the table, the slave and maid must take good care of the girl." ”
There were still many guests waiting to be entertained outside, and the second lady was inconvenient to stay longer, so she told the children to be careful, and left with her daughter-in-law.
Zhou's mother helped the Min family girl to go out, Min Chulin looked back at Fuyi, and heard at home that the Zhu family invited a girl to teach Zhu Yunzhi, she never took it seriously, at this moment, it seems that it should be this person.
Fu Yi didn't care that he was being looked at, so he sat down with Fu Yunzhi and calmly waited for the maids to clean up.
Soon, peace was restored in the small hall, only the bustle outside came for a while, and the people brought the food again, and it was also rumored that Miss Min had gone to the old lady's side and would not come again.
The girls breathed a sigh of relief, Huizhi sat down next to the second sister, and said gently and obediently: "Sister, don't pay attention to her, we don't see her a few times a year, why bother to be angry in our hearts." ”
Yun Zhi hugged her sister, so she was so pitiful, but thinking of the tragic situation of her eldest sister, she was worried that her sisters would not have a good end in the future.
The third girl said to Fuyi: "Sister Yan is still smart, I will also learn your skills in the future, and I can't always be a fool when I encounter problems." ”
Fu Yi smiled bitterly: "Don't let me lie casually, I guess the daughter of the Min family cares about her reputation very much, so naturally let her be a good person and hold her." ”
She looked at Yunzhi, but Yunzhi was still angry and ignored her, and when they came all the way from the southwest corner, Yunzhi left the words behind her, saying that she was the accomplice of the third brother, and they were cut in two.
The luncheon was barely dealt with, and he had to watch a play in the afternoon, and he had a dinner party at night, but the old man and a few other elderly people had to go back to their homes as soon as they were lively at noon.
The old lady and her sons and daughters-in-law personally sent them to the door, and the guests in the East Garden were many fewer for a while, and the rest were colleagues or young people, and they couldn't help but feel comfortable.
The male guests watched the play in the main hall, and the female relatives also set up a stage under the west hall.
The sisters of Fuyi Suiyun were together, and they all sat quietly, and Zhou's mother suddenly came, saying that the ladies invited the girl to come over to see her.
"Mother Zhou, what are you doing when you see me?" Fu Yi asked.
"I don't know how I mentioned you, and they all said that they wanted to meet, and you were wronged and moved a few steps." Mother Zhou said with a smile, "The ladies of the family are like this, you don't have to speak, the old lady is also here, no one dares to be presumptuous." ”
Fu Yi generously came with Zhou's mother, and saw the old lady, the eldest lady, etc., Jiang introduced her one by one, the Prime Minister's Mansion, the Shangshu Mansion, the General's Mansion, the Earl, the Marquis' Mansion, more than a dozen noble ladies, she couldn't remember.
"In the end, it's the old lady's child, this character." Someone among the female dependents praised, "Not to mention that from Kishu, she should be a young lady from the capital mansion." ”
Some people also asked Fuyi directly: "How old is the girl, do you have brothers and sisters at home?" ”
Fuyi listened to Zhou's mother's words, and only stood with his hands down, without speaking.
The old lady said: "My child is timid, don't scare her, she can see the world." As he spoke, he ordered Fuyi to stand down.
When leaving, when I saw the eldest lady's mother, Wang's mother, touched her waist, as if to confirm something, and then her face was full of relief, and she knew that Zhu Rong had sent the key back unconsciously.
She couldn't help but look around, and laughed in her heart that she was stupid, and people must have left early.
After half a day, the old lady gave the second master face today, and played in the East Garden all day, until the guests dispersed at night, and was sent back by the third lady.
The third lady blushed at the scenery of Dongyuan, and said sourly: "Mother, when your son is forty years old, can you also hold a decent birthday banquet?" ”
The old lady said: "Today's birthday banquet for your second brother was organized by Dongyuan with his own body, if you have spare money, just Zhang Luo, I will stop you." ”
"Ouch...... Jin complained, "what kind of money can we have, the third master is not an official position, and his annual income is not enough to raise two children." ”
The old lady said, "The expenses of Pingli and Huizhi have always been drawn from the public, what money do you spend?" ”
Jin was very unconvinced: "Your eldest daughter-in-law is like that, if I don't spend my own money to raise the child, can you have such a decent grandchild?" You just look at what the fifth child has cultivated, and then look at us calmly, dignified, among the brothers, he is the most like the old man, you can't hurt more? ”
The old lady was helpless and sighed: "For the sake of Pingli and Hui'er, don't always babble, you must have the dignity of everyone's wife." Look at the ladies who came to the house today, which one is like you, dressed so delicately? Beauty is beautiful, in a serious situation, you don't have a few sets of solemn clothes? ”
Jin lowered his head and rubbed his hands and said, "Your son likes it, but I don't please others......"
The old lady ordered Mama Rui to get the silver ticket, and explained to her youngest son and daughter-in-law: "Make a good living at home, don't drill those who shouldn't be you, and don't go around stirring up trouble and attracting suspicion." You always say that I don't hurt you, I don't hurt you, you're like this, if you hurt you, do you want to fly to the sky? ”
Jin didn't plan to ask her mother-in-law for pocket money, but as soon as the old lady made a move, she gave two hundred taels of silver, and she didn't dare to take it: "Mother, you didn't mean to disgust me, did you?" Don't turn around and ask the third master to scold me. ”
Mama Rui laughed: "My third lady, you want to be angry with the old lady, this is the old lady who sent her back to her parents' house with her body, is your mother's nephew married?" ”
Jin was happy and embarrassed, it was rare to get a benefit in front of his mother-in-law, and the jealousy and envy of the second family all day long were dispersed, and he happily took the silver ticket and withdrew.
The old lady felt that her ears were pure, and sighed: "Wrong, how can I ask this child to enter the door with such a temperament." ”
Mama Rui said: "For the sake of the grandchildren, the third lady gave birth to good children and grandchildren for the Zhu family. ”
The old lady smiled and said: "I have cultivated the blessings in my previous life, and all my grandchildren are good, I thought that what my father and mother taught must not be harmonious, and I wish my ancestors to open their eyes." ”
But before the words fell, there was the sound of footsteps outside from the pop tower, and there was no need to ask to know that Yun'er was back.
The old lady was afraid that the child would not be scolded in Dongyuan, so she asked Mama Rui to take a look, but Mama Rui came in with help.
"Auntie, Grandmother." Fu Yi stood in front of him, and he was also full of helplessness, and said, "Yunzhi is uncomfortable for the eldest lady, do you know about the matter of the Miss Min family, I lied in front of the second aunt, and I don't know if anyone is playing right and wrong......"
She slowly explained what had been going on all day, and even mentioned that Yunzhi was crying heartbroken in Chunming Zhai and wanted to cut off contact with her.
Fuyi was also aggrieved in his heart, and he felt even more sorry for Yunzhi and the eldest lady, and couldn't help but say with red eyes: "Yunzhi is wronged today, and I have to be worried." ”
The old lady asked Fuyi to sit beside her, and said lovingly: "It's hard work, I have been with her all day, and I haven't asked her to lose her temper again." ”
Fuyi shook his head and returned to his aunt's grandmother, feeling a lot more relieved.
An old man and a young man said a lot of things, and each other had an idea in their hearts, so they withdrew with the citron, remembering that they had asked the citron to kneel down for Min Chulin during the day, and said distressedly: "Whatever you want, I'll buy it for you." ”
Citron didn't care, and laughed at her: "Miss, what money can you have, I still have the old lady's reward here, it's useless." ”
And her eyes were bright, and she saw someone standing outside Qingqiu Pavilion from afar, looking like the third son, and she was afraid that she would be angry because of her troubles, so she excused herself and said, "Miss, I want to go to the toilet, let's go quickly." ”
Fu Yi sneered: "Eating too much again, right?" ”
They hurriedly came back, just in time to see Zhu Rong and Zhengming were about to leave, Zhu Rong heard the movement, turned around and saw Fuyi, and smiled: "It's hard work, it's a very tiring thing to set up a banquet, so I avoided it." ”
I just asked the old lady to comfort for a long time, and now I saw my sweetheart again, and I was more at ease, Lang Lang was under the moonlight, his eyes were like stars, and his eyes were full of smiles.
