Chapter 333: Family Banquet
The king of Nan'an County, they just walked to the second gate.
A small guy ran behind him.
"Young Master," the little guy shouted.
Su Chong turned around.
After waiting for a while, the little maid ran over and said, "Prince Yu's Mansion has sent an invitation, and I invite the eldest young master and a few masters to attend the banquet." ”
Su Chong raised his eyebrows slightly.
He took the invitation and glanced at it.
"You really invited us to the Prince Yu Mansion to attend the banquet," Su Chong said in surprise.
"Thanks to you," Su Chong said with a smile.
Chu Shun patted him on the shoulder and said, "Brother Su is too modest, even if we are not here, this invitation is indispensable for you." ”
The dignified young master of the Hou Mansion of Dongxiang, even the prince of Chongguo is a defeated general under him, such a grand banquet as the lotus banquet, dare not invite Su Chong?
Dongxiang Hou's housewarming banquet, no one came to attend, Dongxiang Hou still remembers.
This is not the second time to move, and even the emperor has given face.
"Brother Su, you talk to your little servant, we will attend a banquet in a few days, so that they don't hit us in the face," Nan'an Jun Wang said.
“……。”
There was a bit of sadness in the tone of the king of Nan'an.
It used to be fine skin and tender meat, but now the face is almost calloused.
People want faces, trees need bark.
At the lotus banquet at that time, everyone was glamorous, but their noses were blue and their faces were swollen, which was too damaging to their image.
Although the image has long been ruined.
"I said it doesn't necessarily work," Su Chong said wistfully.
“……。”
Young Master Su stretched out his hand and said, "Ten taels of silver, this matter will help you settle it." ”
Su Chong, "....... ”
Chu Shun took out a silver ingot from his arms and gave it to Young Master Su.
Young Master Su hid it happily.
"How do you settle it?" Su Chong asked.
"It's too simple, I just need to tell them, eldest brother, you plan to go to the banquet and pick a daughter-in-law, I promise they won't punch you in the face," Young Master Su was full of confidence.
"If you don't beat the big brother, you definitely won't beat them."
“……。”
Su Chong raised his hand and knocked on the door of Young Master Su's head, "As far as the reputation of our Dongxiang Hou Mansion is concerned, can my eldest brother and I marry a daughter-in-law?" ”
"It's because I can't get married, so I have to rely on my face," Young Master Su said.
"Big brother, you have to rely on your face to make them dizzy, and let them take the initiative to rob you, just like your brother-in-law did."
Sou!
A sharp blade pierced Su Jin's chest.
She was still standing, and Su Chong was about to fall to the ground.
Chu Shun smiled, "It seems that uncle and aunt are not in a hurry about Brother Su's family affairs." ”
Su Chong looked at the sky and was melancholy.
When he entered Beijing, he didn't want him to enter the mansion for the sake of his wife.
But since he entered the house, his father and mother have never mentioned this matter again, as if they have given up on him.
A few people chatted and entered the inner courtyard.
In the house, Tang and Mrs. Jingguohou had already played mahjong on the table.
When it was time for lunch, it stopped for half an hour.
For the cake brought back by Su Jin, Young Master Su was full of praise.
After eating the birthday banquet, Tang and Mrs. Yasukuni went to the table, and Su Jin and they went shopping.
After buying a pass, he sent Young Master Su back to the house, and Su Jin went back to the Zhenguo Mansion.
The Guogong Mansion was also immersed in the joy of Lord Xie capturing the King of the Northern Desert alive.
The old lady was happy and rewarded the Duke Mansion with three months' money.
The monthly money of the apricot is ten taels of silver.
A reward is thirty taels, and she can't close her mouth when she is happy.
Su Jin didn't feel anything, she was thinking about the family banquet.
I was tired of wandering around the street, so I took a nap for half an hour, changed my dress, and it was time to go to the banquet.
This is the first homecoming banquet she attended after marrying into the Guogong Mansion.
There are many people in the Zhenguo Mansion, and the rules are strict.
The county lord of Nanzhang accompanied the old lady at a table, and the second and third masters were also together.
Su Jin and Xie Jinyu were at the same table.
Xie Jingchen and Xie Jingchuan are brothers at the same table.
There is also a table in the corner that belongs to the aunt in the house.
The county lord of Nanzhang glanced at it and asked, "Didn't you notify Qingqiu Yuan?" ”
"I was informed, but the maid said that Mrs. Chi was unwell, and she would not attend the family banquet," the maid replied.
The county lord of Nanzhang just asked casually, but he didn't take it to heart.
"Who is Mrs. Chi?" Su Jin said curiously.
and the concubine's room at the same table, but called Mrs.
Xie Jinyu and Xie Jinxiu ignored her.
Xie Jinhuan said, "Mrs. Chi is the concubine room given by Nanliang to the eldest uncle, and after entering the mansion, the eldest uncle arranged for her to live in Qingqiu Garden. ”
"Mrs. Chi has always been deep in Jane, and rarely comes out to attend banquets."
"In the past, the mansion suspected that she was a fine work planted by Nanliang in the mansion, but she didn't leave Qingqiu Garden a few times a year, and her eldest uncle never set foot in Qingqiu Garden for half a step."
The Changfang of the Zhenguo Mansion is very simple.
In addition to the county lord of Nanzhang, there is only one Mrs. Chi.
An extremely unfavored concubine.
Because Master Xie disdained her, the county lord of Nanzhang didn't take her to heart.
Asking a question just shows her mother-in-law's generosity towards the concubine.
In fact, the county lord of Nanzhang is more interested in Aunt Xue, the concubine of the third master.
Aunt Xue entered the house with a veil.
At this time, the veil was taken off, and the appearance of the country and the city, coupled with the good age, compared with her, the third wife was thrown several streets.
Especially after Aunt Xue entered the house, the third master never stepped into the third wife's room for half a step.
Seeing Aunt Xue, the third lady had more than a dozen ice blades in her eyes.
Aunt Xue is very measured, and together with those aunts, An An is divided, but her appearance is too dazzling.
After the old lady glanced at Aunt Xue, her eyes fell on the third master.
The third master's heart was a little heavy.
He understood what the old lady meant, this was to ask him to dispose of Aunt Xue before Grandpa Guo returned to Beijing.
Within a month, Grandpa Guo returned to Beijing.
The time left for him was too short.
The old lady said a few words, basically that Zhen Guogong and Master Xie killed the enemy at the border pass, and made great contributions to the court, and the credit was in the community, so that these juniors could take the old Guogong as an example, work hard, and glorify their ancestors.
After the encouragement, I began to use the family dinner.
What Su Jin has to do is eat well.
Chatting or something, it has nothing to do with her.
Xie Jingchen and his brothers drank, at least on the surface, they saw a deep brotherly relationship.
The county lord of Nanzhang looked at them several times, his brows furrowed and wrinkled.
When the banquet was about to end, she glanced at Zhao's mother.
Mother Zhao's eyebrows were twisted into Sichuan characters.
The banquet lasted for most of the hour, and the dishes on the table were cold.
After the old lady put down the chopsticks, everyone sat down for a while, and then they all dispersed.
Su Jin and Xie Jingchen returned to Agarwood Xuan.
Halfway through, Xie Jingchen asked her, "Nothing went wrong, right?" ”
"It's okay," Su Jin said.
"Why do you ask?"
"I thought they were going to poison you," Xie Jingchen said.
Su Jin smiled.
If she is really poisoned, this banquet will be really lively.
After so many times, I shouldn't dare to think about it.
"What about you?" Su Jin asked.
"They should be wondering why I didn't vomit blood at this moment," Xie Jingchen said with cold eyes.
“……。”
Peony Courtyard.
After the lord of Nanzhang entered the house, he waved his hand to let the maid in the house retreat.
The county lord of Nanzhang had a cold face and said, "What's the matter, what did I let you do?" ”
Mother Zhao said, "The slave and maid also wondered, every cup that the Yin Yang Pot poured for the eldest young master was poisonous wine, and it stands to reason that he should vomit blood and faint after a cup of stomach, but the eldest young master drank more than a dozen cups, and there was no reaction at all." ”
"Are you sure he drank it?" The main road of Nanzhang County.
"The slave maid really sees it," Zhao's mother said.
"That's a problem with the wine, someone has changed the poisoned wine!" Nanzhang County Main Airway.
Mother Zhao looked at her, "Is it possible, who in this mansion will help the eldest young master?" ”
The county lord of Nanzhang also felt that no one dared to go against her.
The maid came over with a flask.
The county lord of Nanzhang personally poured a glass of wine and rewarded it to the little maid.
The little maid was so happy that she drank it when she picked it up.
In less than half an hour, the little maid fell to the ground.
Zhao's mother fed her a pill to save the little girl's life.
Medicine, certainly poison.
Wine, the eldest young master also drank it.
But people are not poisoned, it is really incredible.
The county lord of Nanzhang thought for a long time before he came up with an explanation, "Maybe this poison won't work for him." ”
Agarwood Xuan, inner house.
Su Jin poured himself tea, looked at Xie Jingchen and said, "Since you know that someone has poisoned you, why don't you shake it out and catch the maid?" ”
"Shake it out, it's just a scapegoat," Xie Jingchen said lightly.
"Rather than end up perfunctory, it is better to indulge them to intensify their efforts, and the next family banquet will be attended by both grandfather and father."
The old lady will favor the lord of Nanzhang.
But Zhen Guogong and Master Xie won't.
Su Jin was a little expectant that Xie Jingchen vomited blood in front of Zhenguo Gong and Master Xie.
It must be lively.
