Chapter 209: Birthday Banquet

Mrs. Lin's birthday banquet is no better than others, she is Song Zhi's closest relative, and the Lin family is pregnant, so she can't come to the Lin Mansion early to help, so Song Zhi has to be there early no matter what she says.

However, Song Zhi's status is precious, and no one dares to let her help. Although she and the tenth princess don't want to be rich idlers, they can't do it. After meeting Mrs. Lin, the two were stuffed by Xiao Chen's with a job to watch the children, and they were dismissed.

Chu Ji was still young, and there were too many people coming today, so Song Zhi didn't bring him here. Man'er followed, playing corner kick with Bao'er in the garden of the Ten Princesses' Courtyard. In fact, to put it bluntly, it is a play of pounding pills played by children.

This corner ball was polished one by one by Lin Tianlang in his spare time, but the raw material was a deer hunted by Song Ling, which was a sturdy male deer, and Song Ling gave half of it to Lin Fu. The corner kick made by Lin Tianlang was also divided into Song Ling's share, but the frail Ru'er never played a game.

Bao'er is a little smaller, and she can't play barbarian, and she loses all the way. It stands to reason that if the child on the side had been replaced, he would have cried a long time ago. But Bo'er never shed a single tear, but occasionally looked up at her mother, and when she saw that the tenth princess was smiling at herself, she continued to play.

"Bao'er's temperament is really enduring." Song Zhi looked at Bao'er unrelentingly chasing after Man'er, and said, "I don't know if it's like you or like my cousin." ”

"It's not like me, I'm not so competitive, and I never do things that I'm not good at in front of others." The tenth princess looked at her youngest son, frowned slightly, raised her eyebrows and smiled, and said to Song Zhi: "Xu has turned a corner, like a great-grandfather." ”

"Ahem." Song Zhi pretended to cough, and the juniors in the house knew that this old lady Lin was strong and competitive.

Just talking about this elder who everyone feared behind her back, Song Zhi was still a little uncomfortable, so she changed her words and said, "How can Cousin Qing still have the future?" ”

Shen Baiyan, a busy person, came early today, why haven't he seen Lin Tianqing and his wife.

"Dr. Xie has already come, but I haven't seen my wife accompanying me." The brocade had just brought fruit from the outer court, and when he heard it, he said.

"Well, it won't be. Always coming. "No matter what, this old woman Lin is not sorry for Lin Tianqing.

The tenth princess had a complicated smile on the corner of her mouth, and she leaned close to Song Zhi's ear and said, "She." With a body, gold is now expensive. How could you come to such a crowded place? ”

"What? Isn't her body, her body not fit to be pregnant? When Song Zhi heard the news, the first time he was not surprised, nor happy, but worried.

"Who knows? I didn't look at her husband so happy, I came to the house that day to talk to my mother-in-law, and I was a little nervous when I thought about it, so I said it. But I looked at her cautious look because I wanted to keep the child. ”

The tenth princess also learned about this matter after Xiao Chen said it inadvertently.

"There are only a few elders in this mansion and I know about this matter, so I didn't even say anything to your brother in order not to worry about it."

The tenth princess actually sympathized with Lin Tianqing in this matter, but sympathy is sympathy, and she can't ruin her family's leisure for the sake of other people's affairs.

"Could it be that the people of the Yan family have something to say?" Song Zhi only thought that Lin Tianqing, like Jiang Changwan, was facing pressure from his elders.

"I've never heard of that." The tenth princess shook her head.

Song Zhi didn't have time to think about it, the banquet was about to start outside, and Xiao Chen quickly asked the maid to invite Song Zhi and the tenth princess out.

When the tenth princess and Song Zhi led their two children to the front yard, many people who were familiar or not so familiar looked over in an instant. There are a few fast-moving ladies who already have a faint tendency to come over.

At this time, the tenth princess was summoned by Xiao Chen.

"Childish." Song Zhi heard a gentle call, and looked at the sound, it turned out to be Zeng Yun. She smiled kindly, but Song Zhi always felt that there was a sense of gloom on her face.

"Sister-in-law." Song Zhi greeted him, and in this way, the people around him who were ready to move and wanted to come up and talk to him retreated.

"Barbarian." Zeng Yunyi stroked Man'er's little face, "It's really every time I look at it, I feel that it has become more beautiful." ”

Man'er smiled sweetly and called, "Uncle." ”

Her smile was sweet and pleasing, which made Zeng Yunyi's heart light up, she didn't think about it, she took a gemstone chain from her neck, handed it to Man'er, and said, "It's not a valuable thing, Man'er can play with it." ”

"What to do for her? Such a good gemstone chain, sister-in-law should keep it for her daughter-in-law. Song Zhi said with a smile.

"I can't afford a chain yet?"

Zeng Yunyi held Song Zhi, the sister-in-law was like sisters, those who knew understood that the two of them were really good, and those who didn't know only thought that Zeng Yun deliberately flattered Song Zhi.

The two of them stood still at a corner, and at this angle they could just see Song Ling and Shen Baiyan standing in the pavilion opposite, one was listening, the other was talking, while Lin Tianlang and Jiang Ao were sitting at the stone table playing chess.

These few people always get together at every opportunity.

In my ears, from time to time, the voice of the second butler shouting a congratulatory gift list sounded.

"Why do you look at my sister-in-law and look a little tired?" Song Zhi tilted his head to look at the tired color between Zeng Yunyi's eyebrows and said.

Zeng Yunyi stroked a strand of hair floating on his sideburns and said, "It's okay, Rouyi came to me to cry yesterday, and I slept a little restlessly." ”

"What's wrong? What are you crying for no reason? Song Zhi secretly speculated, I don't know what kind of demon that woman is doing?

"Mother, she, she has been a little unable to do it recently, so she handed over the care of the child to Aunt Zhou and the nurse. The child has had a fever these days and has not been able to go away. Rouyi suspected that she was not taking care of her, so she ran to my hospital and counted Aunt Zhou down. Aunt Zhou is not a subordinate, and if she is serious, she can also be said to be a guest in the house. ”

Zeng Yunyi sighed and continued: "I was angry that she was open-mouthed, so I punished her for three mouths. Maybe he was so ashamed and angry that he was sick now. It makes me feel bad in my heart, but in fact, she is the biological mother of the child, and it is normal for people to be anxious to get angry. ”

"Sister-in-law is just too kind-hearted, she shouldn't be an aunt."

Regarding the identity of Rouyi, Song Zhi did not tell Zeng Yunyi in detail. At this moment, this sentence is also a vague hint.

Zeng Yunyi felt a little chill in her neck, as if someone was secretly peeping, she reached out and rubbed her stamina, and said: "Her background is pitiful, she has a heart, and I also want to lift her up with the water." Anyway, it's a fall into the mud......

"Sister-in-law is really kind," Song Zhi saw that a slender shadow fell on the floor tile around the corner behind Zeng Yunyi, so he interrupted Zeng Yunyi's words and said, "How can you see so many emotions when you look at the script?" ”

Zeng Yunyi looked at Song Zhi with some puzzlement, and was pulled by Song Zhi's sleeve, "Sister-in-law, seeing that the banquet is about to start, let's go to the West Hall." I'm also a little hungry. ”

Song Zhi glanced at the meteor while taking Zeng Yunyi away, and she fell behind and walked around the corner.

The women's table is in the west hall, Song Zhi and Zeng Yunyi's positions are not in the same place, and on her side are the positions of the tenth princess and Xiao Chen.

Song Zhi was talking to the tenth princess when Meteor leaned down and said a few words lightly and quickly.

The smile on Song Zhi's face remained unchanged, and he said, "Then you go and get a chrysanthemum drink for Man'er, so that she won't eat something hot and cough at night." ”

"The chrysanthemum is too cool, so you changed it to Luo Han Guo, right?" When Xiao Chen heard Song Zhi's words, he interjected.

"It's better for my aunt to be careful, so let's do it." Song Zhi said to the meteor.

Meteor was blessed, so she went to do it, as if what she discussed with Song Zhi was really just this matter.

The figure called Song Zhi really minded a little, but when the meteor went, he didn't see anyone, which made Song Zhi feel a pimple in his heart, and he didn't eat a little less at a meal.

After the banquet, on the carriage back to the house, Song Zhi told Shen Baiyan about this matter.

Shen Baiyan was relieved: "Maybe that person didn't hear it at all?" Even if you hear it clearly, you may not be able to grasp the deep meaning, and even if you are aware of something, you may not make a fuss about it. ”

Shen Baiyan's words around and around finally made Song Zhi feel a little relieved, and now the only people who can make Song Zhi care so much are these relatives. She didn't want to cause trouble and cause Song Ling to get into a lot of trouble.

At Mrs. Lin's birthday banquet, Song Zhi always felt that Duchess Zheng Guo seemed to have something to say, but there were too many female dependents around, all of them were exquisite, and she could only say a few words of greeting.

Song Zhi mentioned it casually, and when he saw Shen Baiyan sneering, he revealed the matter and talked about the things on the side.

"Have you done Mama Yang's funeral?" Song Zhi asked.

Shen Baiyan naturally wouldn't let Mama Yang be buried in such a hurry, so he chose an auspicious day for the zodiac, invited the Taoist chief to do a huge ceremony, took out the coffin, and relocated the site for burial.

In fact, Song Zhi felt that this ritual seemed to be a bit deliberate, just like knocking on a mountain and shaking a tiger, making it difficult for some people with ghosts in their hearts to sleep all night.

Shen Baiyan said a digression, and said: "The Empress Dowager Derong and the Empress Dowager Jia'an or the harem, or the government and the opposition, which one has more weight?" ”

"Naturally, it's the Empress Dowager Jia'an." As the emperor's biological mother, the family she was born in is now prosperous.

"The courtiers and nobles are intertwined, although I and the Empress Dowager Jia'an have had frequent filthy incidents recently, but after all, they are blood relatives. Zheng Guogong has a friendship with me, but Duchess Zheng Guogong is an old friend of the Empress Dowager de Jong. What do you think she wants to do today? ”

Song Zhi rubbed his temples, revealing an impatient look, and said, "It's really troublesome." Then he poked the brute in the face.

Shen Baiyan looked down at Man'er's sleeping face in his arms, his white face was like a soft marshmallow.
