The Dai family had a lot of guests on this day, and the Tian family spent a lot of effort to prepare for today's banquet, and there were one or twenty kinds of small snacks to entertain the guests in front of the banquet.

Sizhen is the host and guest, and most of the people are coming to her, and most of them have to gather around her to praise and say a few words.

Even if the guests are like clouds, standing among the crowds, Sizhen is also the most outstanding one.

It's not that the women present are not as good as her, like Dai Yue'e, Yuejuan, and Lian Wuniang, the young lady of the Ma family...... Guilin is a place of beautiful landscapes, girls from such a place, there is never a shortage of beauties, but in terms of manners and dignity, it is naturally Sizhen who is the most outstanding.

Dai Yuechan saw that Sizhen was dressed in thick ink and color, red and green accessories, neckline and sleeves, because of the silver gauze lining, glamorous and vulgar, and her demeanor and demeanor gave people the feeling that heavy makeup was always appropriate, so she sighed slightly in her heart.

As a playmate when she was a child, of course she hoped that Sizhen would be good, and she also knew that Sizhen was the master when she was young, and she was more noble than them, but she didn't expect that one day Sizhen would become one of the most noble women in the world, the righteous daughter of the queen mother, and the righteous sister of the emperor today, and she was too far away.

People from different worlds can only drift apart.

At the beginning of the banquet, Sizhen did not sit with those officials and wives, and asked Dai Yuechan to arrange her at a table with girls of the same age.

These girls, although not as good as Dai Yuechan and her, are also more familiar with each other, and they used to be playmates who often came and went in Guilin.

Dai Yue'e sat beside her and diligently gave her the dishes: "Gege, please try this Yuzhu beef, the chef in the house, was originally the head chef in the palace, after leaving the palace, my uncle invited him over, this beef was selected less than a year ago, the meat is fresh and tender, I heard my sister say that you used to love this dish, you taste, is it still the taste of childhood?" ”

Sizhen smiled at her, stretched out her chopsticks and ate the piece of beef neatly, and nodded slightly with a pleasant expression: "The Yuzhu beef in Guilin is still delicious, and there is no such taste in the palace." ”

Listening to Sizhen's praise, Dai Yuechan laughed: "I still remember when I was a child, once Wu Niang envied your good skin, you told her to eat jade bamboo often, and said that "Shennong's Materia Medica" said that it 'long-term service to the face and liver snoring, good color, moisturizing' made Wu Niang stunned, and quietly asked me, do you plan to practice medicine." ”

In the past, when her parents were there, Sizhen's life was carefree, and she had to turn over any idle book twice, she had a good memory, and she was naturally influenced by the scriptures cited among her friends.

Therefore, after listening to Yuechan's words, she just smiled faintly, but did not make any response, and there was no superfluous expression on her face, so that Dai Yuechan was a little dazed for a while, and felt that the eyes of the people at the table were full of sympathy when they looked at her, and after being stunned for a moment, she couldn't help but ask: "Don't you remember Gege?" ”

Sizhen turned her face to look at her and smiled: "I only remember that at that time, they were all women, only I wouldn't, and I was ridiculed by them in private, saying that I, the prince's family, was an embroidered pillow, a brutal person, who only loves to dance with guns and sticks, only you, no matter what I play, I will applaud vigorously, Yuechan, we are good friends, I have never forgotten." ”

didn't expect Sizhen to say this in front of everyone, Yuechan was completely stunned, her eyes suddenly turned red, and she snorted for a while but didn't know how to talk.

Her heart swelled with emotion: Ah Zhen didn't forget her, didn't forget her!

Dai Yue'e had been paying attention to Yuechan and Sizhen when they started talking, and when she saw the expression of the lobby sister, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise, and she laughed: "It's not Gege who said it, we don't know what Gege thought." Actually, it's not that we laugh at Gege, it's that we don't dare to get close to you, the adults in the family say, Gege, you are the daughter of the prince, you are a noble person, if you are playing, we will not be able to do that, so we have to pick up what you can't and hit you! ”

This was said appropriately and affectionately, and it immediately resolved the strangeness that the girls hadn't seen for a long time, and even Wu Niang, who was sitting opposite Sizhen and had not spoken, smiled slightly: "But no, you are the Gege of the palace, our father and brother are all under your father, who dares to offend you?" You were like a boy at that time, you love to fight all day long, and you want to try it when you see us, and it's good not to avoid you. ”

She looked at Sizhen and raised her delicate chin: "That year, I saw that you were much whiter, so I thought about asking you what you ate and what you used, but I didn't expect you to pour out the bookbag, which made us laugh behind our backs, but I did eat that jade bamboo a lot later, you see, am I now like a peach blossom?" ”

Another girl, Ma Xiulan, didn't wait for Sizhen to speak, so she pinched Wu Niang's face first, learned from Sizhen's former appearance, and said with a smile: "Yes, this little lady is beautiful, and when she grows up in the future, she will marry into my family and be my sister-in-law." ”

Everyone laughed, and the restraint that had been swept away because of the change in Sizhen's identity.

Wu Niang's expression became a little gloomy.

Sizhen was a little surprised, she never thought that a joke she said in her childhood would be remembered by Wu Niang, obviously, she had some hazy affection for her brother.

Thinking of his brother Kong Tingxun's current appearance, Sizhen is also a little gloomy.

Dai Yuechan caught a glimpse of her expression, and hurriedly interrupted: "Now it seems that Gege has a lofty heart, even among men, there are few people who can compare, naturally unlike us little women who are locked up in the house all day long, we only remember the trivial things such as needlework and thread, food and clothing, where is it as powerful as Gege, I heard that you will come back to lead the troops to fight with those Nanming sergeants in the future, is it true?" ”

This sentence has already asked about the arrangement of the imperial court, Sizhen thought for a while and said: "Maybe not for the time being, after all, I have only learned the art of war in the past few years, the emperor is not at ease to hand over such a large feudal domain to me, and he has to rely more on them Shibo, speaking of which, the father and brother of all sisters are all heroes of the feudal domain, here, I will borrow a glass of wine, thank them." ”

Hearing her say this, Dai Yuechan and Lian Wuniang hurriedly politely spoke.

After that, starting with Yue'e, everyone began to ask about the customs of the capital, Sizhen did not avoid it as much as just now, and basically had to answer all questions, in the eyes of others, I only felt that the girls at this table were laughing constantly, and you came and talked about it in a whisper, and it was very agreeable.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors, according to the customs of the banquet, someone began to show their talents to help the wine, Yue'e made up her mind to take the lead today, and invited Yuechan to play the flute and sang "Man Jianghong", she is a delicate little lady, singing such impassioned lyrics and songs, and there is another flavor. The male guests downstairs, who were already asking who the little lady who was singing, and the bold young man, walked to the side of the stairs and secretly looked upstairs.

If it weren't for the presence of He Shuo Gege today, everyone would have wanted to say a few more words, and Dai Mansion would not have greeted male and female guests upstairs and downstairs in the big flower hall, and on weekdays, they would not have had the opportunity to eat with these little ladies so closely.

Dai Yue'e was born with snow muscles and jade bones, and after this song was sung, her face was full of powder, and the two bright red coral earrings on her face shook gently, which was quite charming.

When she finished singing, everyone applauded, Sizhen also praised it, and then whispered to Yuechan, who received the flute: "I haven't seen you for a few years, your flute has improved a lot, the tail note of the song just now is high in the clouds, I'm afraid that I won't know the taste of meat for three days." ”

Yuechan laughed: "I remember that back then, your flute played better than me, why don't you play a song today?" ”

Sizhen smiled and excused himself: "I haven't blown it in the past few years, and it's been abandoned for a long time." ”

Naturally, the limelight can't let the people of the Dai family come out, and other girls can't bear it, and they begin to take turns to show their talents, some playing, some singing, some blowing, some playing the stringed piano, and there are people who are not very familiar with Sizhen, chattering in private, hoping to have the honor to see Heshuo Gege's demeanor today.

Seeing this, Tian came over and smiled at Sizhen: "I heard that Gege once learned pipa, and a few girls in those houses also learned pipa. ”

Sizhen listened, and did not say that his piece of jade would be lured out, but only nodded and said, "Madame is polite, please let them start, I will listen." ”

Several girls want to come to practice together on weekdays, and the sound of the pipa is closely connected and corresponds to each other, like a big bead and a small bead falling on a jade plate, which is very beautiful.

After listening to this, Sizhen naturally praised it again, and sent a palace flower to the girls who performed today to express her gratitude.

In these girls' homes, all of them are either rich or expensive, of course, there will be no shortage of flowers, but what Sizhen took out were all made in the palace, and they couldn't buy it if they wanted to buy it outside, so they were naturally very happy to take it.

Yue'e took the palace flower and immediately put it on her head, and then said to Sizhen with a smile: "They all want to listen to Gege play the pipa, why don't Gege play a song, let them see, what is a real master?" ”

Sizhen's current identity, how can she perform these in public, the people of the Dai family are doing this, it is nothing more than pulling the tiger skin as a banner, wanting to show off her relationship with her in front of others, when Tian said it just now, she was tantamount to politely declining once, but I didn't expect this Dai Yue'e to see that she gave her a good face, and came to test it again.

But Sizhen didn't show any anger on his face, but his voice was more gentle: "I have been practicing martial arts for a lot in the past few years, and I am a lot of rusty with the music method, so it's really hard to take it out and offer ugly ......."

Seeing that the women and girls of the Dai family showed disappointment on their faces, Sizhen changed his mind and said: "Today, thanks to the Dai family's hospitality, and appreciating the talents of the sisters, Sizhen will perform a small skill of carving insects, Yuechan, you can ask them to prepare some candles." ”
