Chapter 232: The Feast
Go and ask the little girl of the Ye sisters to go out through the back door, and Wei Ling and Wei Yu come in through the front door.
Seeing that the Wu family was also in the house, Wei Yu hurriedly said, "I've seen the princess of the county." ”
"It's all sisters, no need to be polite." Wu said to Wei Yu with a smile, and glanced at Wei Ling again, although there was a smile on his face, there was accusation in his eyes.
Although Shen Xiu didn't go out to greet her, she at least saluted her.
Wei Ling didn't even see the courtesy, because she really didn't take her as the princess of the county in her eyes.
"I heard from my mother-in-law that the princess of the county has come to the back garden, and I think I should come to Concubine Shen." Wei Ling smiled and said, "Sure enough, the princess of the county is really here." ”
Nuan Xiangwu belongs to the range of the six east and west of the front yard, and if you want to come to the back garden, you must enter the mountain gate.
When the little eunuch guarding the door saw Wu coming in a soft sedan chair, he immediately told her.
Although the scenery of the back garden is good, when the Wu family came to the back garden at this time, they must have come to find Shen Xiu.
If the Wu family and Shen Xiu are united, she will have a lot of trouble.
"Concubine Wei really has six visions and listens to all directions, but I'm afraid that I can't hide the whereabouts of the prince from you." Wu smiled on his face, and the meaning of mockery was fully revealed.
Wei Ling didn't back down at all, and said with a smile: "The princess of the county knows the whereabouts of the prince best, otherwise she wouldn't have come here." ”
Knowing that Han Xiao often comes here, and the Wu family also runs here, I don't know where the meaning of this drunkard is.
"Hehe~~" Wu's heart was on fire, and he said with a smile: "Why is Concubine Wei in such a hurry to follow me." ”
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Shen Xiu said with a smile: "It's rare for people to come so together, I have already sent someone to find Aunt Ye." My house is smaller, so it's better to go to the front flower hall, it's more convenient for everyone. ”
"Concubine Shen really has a heart." Wei Ling smiled and said, "Even the two Aunt Ye are thinking about it." ”
Shen Xiu smiled and said: "They are all for the prince, and the princess is far away, so I don't dare to invite it." The two Aunt Ye live so close to each other, if they don't invite them, they don't want to go. ”
Saying that, Shen Xiu stood up and said with a smile, "Everyone, please." ”
Wu then stood up and said with a smile: "Then I will bother Concubine Shen today." ”
"It's a few faces, who have come to me." Shen Xiu said with a smile.
Wei Ling smiled and said, "It's really disturbing." ”
The three of them set off to leave, and Nian Ruolan, who had no sense of existence, and Wei Yu, who had always been ignorant, also followed the three of them.
At this time, Wei Yu always felt that he couldn't understand, and he couldn't interject at all. simply walked the same road with Nian Ruolan, and smiled at Nian Ruolan.
Nian Ruolan's temper has always been soft, and she also smiled at Wei Yu.
Shen Xiu led the way, and the group arrived at the retreat flower hall in the backyard.
After the main room, three small retreats, although not big, but as a flower hall is more than enough.
As early as when Shen Xiu ordered someone to call Aunt Ye, Yin'er brought the little girl over to tidy up. Although the place that is cleaned every day does not need to be cleaned, the tables and chairs must be rearranged.
The round table was removed and the small table was brought out, one for each person. Tea sets and fruit saucers are also all on the table.
Although it took a lot of effort, when Shen Xiu led everyone in, everything had been cleaned up.
"My sister's girl is really capable, and she cleaned it up so quickly." Wu said with a smile.
Whether she came or Wei Ling came, it was an accident.
said that she wanted to come to the flower hall, and Shen Xiu's proposal just now, the girl had already cleaned up the flower hall, and she was really capable.
"Be clever and yourself, let the princess of the county smile." Shen Xiu smiled and said, "Please sit down with the princess of the county." ”
Wu is very concerned about the decency of her main room, and at this time, this face must be enough for her.
Wu was very happy, but his mouth was humble, and said: "My sister is the master, how can I sit down." ”
"Why should the princess of the county refuse?" Wei Ling smiled and said, "Obviously I ...... in my heart"
Shen Xiu almost grabbed the words: "Princess Jun, please sit down." ”
Wei Ling's combat power is really too strong, even if he wants to tear it up, he will wait to sit down.
Like her, she has to tear every minute, which is also tiring.
"Then you're welcome." Wu said with a smile, and he couldn't help but look at Wei Ling.
This Wei Ling is really ......
Compared with her, Shen Xiu is really gentle and submissive.
"Please." Shen Xiu said with a smile.
When the Wu family sat down, Shen Xiu smiled and said to Wei Ling: "Concubine Wei, please." ”
"Please."
The two sat down on the left and right, and Wei Yu sat down next to Wei Ling.
Nian Ruolan looked at the reserved seat, and sat down next to Wei Yu. There are still two seats left on the opposite side, which are just right for the Ye family sisters.
Everyone sat down, and Ye Fu and Ye Wei also came.
"I've seen the princess of the county, Concubine Wei, and Concubine Shen." Ye Fu and Ye Wei stepped forward to salute, but their expressions were a little dazed.
Suddenly, Shen Xiu sent a girl to invite them, but they couldn't go. As a result, the girl who passed the message said that the Wu family and Wei Ling were all there, so let them go too.
Where do they dare not say, but what is the situation in front of them?
"No courtesy." Wu smiled and said, "You can sit down too." ”
"Yes." The two of them responded, looked at the two empty seats left in the hall, and sat down.
Although they sat down, the situation was weird, and the two of them only trembled.
"All the people are together." Shen Xiu smiled and said, "It's just that the seat is boring, it's better to call a few servants to come and watch the singing and dancing." ”
If you just drink tea and eat snacks, you are afraid that it will be torn up and fly in minutes, and the table will fly.
It's better to invite a few servants to come, and the scene will be lively, so as not to flip the table immediately.
"That's a good idea." Wu said with a smile, "Listening to playing and singing can also relieve boredom." ”
Shen Xiu turned her head and instructed Linlang to ask her to go to Manager Wang. Today's scene is big, and we need Mr. Wang to take care of it.
"Speaking of which, Concubine Shen's Pinghu Autumn Moon is really exquisite." Wei Ling said.
Pinghu Lake is close to Kunming Lake in autumn, and although it covers an area that is not large, it is a warm place in winter and cool in summer.
Before Shen Xiu moved in, she had been here. At that time, although the subordinates cleaned it up, they always felt that it was a little worse. Now that Shen Xiu has moved in, everything in the garden suddenly looks much more exquisite.
The former daughter of the daughter, no matter how many turmoil she has experienced, her requirements for meticulous life will never be lowered.
"Let Concubine Wei smile." Shen Xiu smiled and said, "Speaking of which, Linglong Pavilion is a treasure land of feng shui. ”
Although the area of the back garden of Yanwang Mansion is large, except for the Qichun Garden and the Kyushu Qingyan, which are not usually used, Linglong Pavilion is one of the best regardless of the terrain or area.
"What's the use of Feng Shui Treasure Land, it's better than Concubine Shen here." Wei Ling said a little self-deprecatingly.
Shen Xiu is the only one who is favored, she doesn't care about the favor of men, but she has no son, and she is always lacking in confidence.
If you had a son by your side......
Forget it, it's impossible, why bother thinking about it.
Wu smiled and said: "Concubine Wei likes the princess so much, how can she still envy Concubine Shen, but the sisters are quite envious of you." ”
"Yes, Concubine Wei was ordered to assist in affairs, and she is very capable." Shen Xiu said with a smile.
Wei Ling, who has no mother's family, is not favored, and has no children, but she can still fight like this, she is really very capable.
"If you want to be capable, the affairs of the back garden are fully handled by Lady Su, and she is really capable." Wei Ling said, looking at Shen Xiu, "I heard that Concubine Shen is very friendly with Female Officer Su, and her three meals are all provided by Pinghu Qiuyue. ”
She has always wanted to meddle in the affairs of the back garden, but Su Huaiyu is really too difficult to mess with.
Last time, Shen Xiu took advantage of the matter of Chao Ge'er's nurse, and Su Huaiyu's tossing made everyone in the back garden know Su Huaiyu's ability.
Although she is very motivated, she does not dare to provoke Su Huaiyu. provoked her, and her head fell off if she couldn't get it.
"It's hard to get married." Shen Xiu said with a smile.
Su Huaiyu's character is not just a matter of currying favor. It was an unexpected joy that she was able to fall in love with Su Huaiyu.
"Although Concubine Shen doesn't care about everything, she is the one who has mastered the management." Wei Ling said.
This is also Shen Xiu's strength, whether it is Han Xiao or Su Huaiyu, they are all towards her. It's as if you've done nothing, but you've got everything under control.
As he was talking, the chief steward came with the servants.
A total of four playing and singing, holding musical instruments, all of them are beautiful and artistic.
"It's finally here." Wu smiled and said, "Then let's get started." ”
Four singing performances are placed in the middle of the hall in an open frame position, and the singing begins. Yin'er took the girls and served another round of tea, and even added another refreshment.
After playing the song, Wu clapped his hands with a smile and said, "Not bad, reward." ”
The girl beside Wu immediately took out ten taels of silver and gave it to the servant.
"Princess Xie Jun's reward." The four servants knelt down to thank the reward.
Shen Xiu said with a smile: "The princess of the county has been rewarded, and I, the host, can't be polite." ”
Yin'er had already prepared, and also took ten taels of silver to the servant.
"Concubine Xie Shen." The voice of gratitude grew louder and louder.
Wei Ling's expression was indifferent, but he was a little depressed in his heart. The Wu family rewarded, and Shen Xiu also rewarded, and in terms of identity, she should also be rewarded.
It's just that where she got the reward, she took out ten taels of silver, but only then did she play and sing a song, and she was rewarded with ten taels.
If she follows, Wu will definitely raise next.
Ten taels, twenty taels, thirty taels, the Wu family has the money to take it out. Shen Xiu is richer and more able to get up with it.
When the time comes, she will be even more embarrassed if she can't afford it. It's better not to take it at the beginning, although it is also hot, it is better than spending money, but you have to look embarrassed.
"Go ahead." Wu said with a smile, somewhat proud in his heart.
Wei Ling is so arrogant, she is happy to be able to frustrate her spirit.
The servants continued to play and sing, and Wu said with a smile: "Like today, it is also a rare and elegant thing for sisters to get together and listen to music together. It's better to set a day, and everyone takes turns to be the host, and it seems harmonious to have fun together. ”
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the Ye family sisters and Nian Ruolan changed slightly.
Take turns to be the east, where can they play?
"Forget it, where is my aunt's little monthly money enough to play." The Wu family said to the Ye family sisters and Nian Ruolan, "You just have to play along." ”
Saying that, Wu's eyes looked at Wei Ling and said proudly: "Concubine Wei, what do you think of this suggestion?" ”
After a host, at least a few dozen taels of silver are gone. This amount of money is what Wei Ling plays, but she can increase the amount at any time when she takes turns to be the east.
In terms of financial resources, whether it is her or Shen Xiu, they can beat Wei Ling.
