Chapter 776: Before the Wine Gathering
Xiaohe was frightened by Tang Jiaren. She looked at Tang Jiaren tremblingly, with a look of horror on her face.
Tang Jiaren realized that she was a little excessive, and she had the heart to comfort Xiaohe. After all, Xiaohe was the first person to show kindness to her after she came to the palace. Tang Jiaren stretched out her hand and patted Xiaohe's shoulder.
No, Tang Jiaren's comfort had the opposite effect, Xiaohe rushed out of the room with a scream, and ran away without a trace in an instant.
Tang Jiaren chased out, but didn't see Xiaohe's figure, and couldn't help muttering: "I'm too timid, but I run quite fast." Hey, you're pointing me out where the study is? ”
Tang Jiaren smoothed her long black hair, braided it into the best braid, folded a flower among the flowers, wrapped it around the end of the hair twice with the stem, tied it, and then walked to Sanniang's room in high spirits.
There was no one in Sanniang's room, and neither were Sanxi and Sixi.
Tang Jiaren walked around the courtyard, trying to find someone to ask where the study was, but he didn't meet anyone.
It's weird.
Fortunately, Tang Jiaren boasted that she had a good nose that only smelled the fragrance and identified the position, and following the imperceptible aroma of food, she was stunned to go around Sanniang's courtyard and came all the way to the fragrant kitchen.
As soon as Tang Jiaren took a sip of saliva, she was caught by a rough envoy.
The rough woman directly stuffed a beautiful little casserole into Tang Jiaren's hand, then turned around and went back to the kitchen and continued to work.
Tang Jiaren looked at the small casserole in his hand, turned around decisively and left, found a place where no one was around, lifted the lid, ate the stewed pigeon inside, spit the bones back into the casserole, and casually sighed that the food in the palace was really good.
After padding her belly, she prepared to destroy the corpse and bury the pigeon. When he was looking for the location, he was found by two other second-class maidservants who were carrying food and called out to him.
Tang Jiaren remembered that Duanmu Xia asked him to go to the study, thinking that there was something wrong, and he was about to refuse, but he heard a conversation between the two.
The small-eyed second-class maidservant said, "It's been a long time since the house has been so lively." The second son is not in the house, and the house is terrifyingly quiet. Ay...... A person like the second son, I don't know what kind of lady he will marry in the future? ”
The thick-lipped second-class maidservant said, "It's not something you should worry about. Well, I said, those dishes are beautifully prepared tonight. Just smelling it makes people drool. ”
The small-eyed maidservant snorted and said, "You can be greedy!" Sooner or later, you will become a pig! Just like that one! ”
The thick-lipped maid looked left and right, and saw that Tang Jiaren was some distance away from her, so she said to the small-eyed maidservant, "You should be careful when you speak." ”
The small-eyed maidservant said: "She is greedy like that, and she is still afraid of what others say?" I'm just sorry for the second son. He...... How did he tolerate the fat man? ”
The thick-lipped maidservant said, "Don't say it." Even if you don't have that pet, you don't have anything to do. Who the second son likes, that's the second son's business. Chew your tongue again, and look carefully at the skin. ”
The small-eyed maid sighed heavily and said no more.
Tang Jiaren thought about it for a while and knew that the favor in the mouth of the thick-lipped maid should be Qiu Jiangyun. She once called herself a darling, presumably by changing her name.
Life is always magical.
She fought with Qiu Jiangyun and ruined each other's appearances, but each other regained their looks and changed their appearances. She became beautiful, but Qiu Jiangyun became fat. Hey...... That's nice.
Tang Jiaren was going to find Duanmu Xia, but when she heard the two maidservants claim that the dinner was for Duanmu Xia, she simply went to the dinner to wait for him. If Duanmu Xia treats each other politely, maybe she can mix a table of delicacies and fight tooth sacrifices.
With a thirst for food, Tang Jiaren went to the garden. On the way, she wanted to throw away the bones in the casserole twice, but she never had a chance, so she could only take one step at a time.
In the garden of the palace, the palace lamps are hung high, illuminating the smiling faces and the flowers; The shadow of the clothes and sideburns, the rings are jingling, and the excitement is extraordinary.
There were four tables in the garden, three of which were almost full. A table of women, a table of men, and a table of men with rouge.
Because it was a family banquet, there were not so many evasions, and the three tables were arranged in a fan-shaped order, one table for women, one table for rouge men, and then one table for men.
The first two tables belong to the backyard of the second prince, and only the third table is the top diners under the prince, originating from the rivers and lakes and mountains, and there are not many rules, but they are all characters that cannot be underestimated.
The main table was empty, and the prince and Duanmu Xia were not seen for a long time.
At the table of the rouge man, a man raised his orchid finger and said, "Why haven't you seen the prince yet?" ”
Another burly man smiled and said, "What, I thought about it after not seeing him for a while?" ”
The man with the orchid finger glanced sideways at the burly man.
The burly man laughed, poured himself a glass of wine, and drank it all.
In the study, Duanmu Xia didn't wait for Tang Jiaren, and instructed Ah Pan with a dark face: "Send someone to find the rhyme pen." ”
Apan asked, "But do you still bring the study?" ”
Duanmu Xia's tone was a little tough, and he said, "Let her stay in the house honestly!" After that, he flicked his sleeves and walked out of the study to find the second prince.
Ah Pan gave Duanmu Xia's explanation to the little guy, and then went to chase Duanmu Xia.
When the two of them passed by the arch bridge, they happened to see the second prince and Yu Qianqiong walking towards them. The second prince was dressed in silver brocade, and he was still personable. Yu Qianqiong was wearing a dark green robe, and her face was buttoned with a half-cut silver mask, which blocked the scars on her face.
When Ah Pan saw Yu Qianqiong, he let out a soft snort from his nose, like gasping for breath and disdain.
Duanmu Xia greeted the second prince and respectfully saluted: "Father, my son is back." ”
The second prince raised his hand and patted Duanmu Xia's shoulder, and said, "Is there anything to gain from this trip?" ”
Duanmu Xia replied: "On this trip, I have a little understanding of the rivers and lakes and people's livelihood, although I have not gained a lot, but I also know some truths about doing things. ”
The second prince nodded, looked at Duanmu Xia's eyes carefully, and said, "I've lost weight." ”
Duanmu Natsumu showed his admiration and said: "I was infected with wind and cold on the road, and I burned for seven days in a row, I thought I couldn't wake up, but I dreamed of my father." The father commanded the child to get up and go home quickly. The child tried his best to open his eyes, and then he had to live. ”
The second prince is accustomed to coaxing the world with a gentle appearance, but at this moment, he is still moved by Duanmu Xia's lies. He looked at Ah Pan and scolded, "How do you take care of Childe?!" ”
Apan immediately knelt down and said, "The slave deserves to die." ”
Duanmu Xia said: "Father is angry. If it is because of the son, the father is angry, it is unfilial piety. ”
The second prince looked at Duanmu Xia, who was more and more like himself, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "I want to come to the banquet has been prepared, go, go together." ”
