Chapter 301: The Wedding Banquet
"That's it."
Ye Jinyan nodded thoughtfully, Shen Zhuzhen is very likely to inherit the family business here, which is not a bad thing for him.
The window paper in the small courtyard has been arranged, and it looks really festive, but this kind of bustling liveliness only belongs to this small courtyard. I didn't see a lot of family members busy with this.
Ye Jinyan turned her head, looked at the slave maid, and asked, "Why didn't you see that the main courtyard of your house was also decorated?" ”
The maid's eyes dodged for a moment, and then replied respectfully: "The lord and the lady don't like to do this, but today is the day when the eldest young master and the flower girl get married." When the flower girl went to the fourth aunt's room, in addition to learning the rules of the house, she also wanted to dress the flower girl like a bride. ”
"Oh." Ye Jinyan nodded, there are really a lot of rules in this big family.
But what is the matter with this eldest young master getting married and not putting on a show.
Song Xiang and Xiao Man were busy for a while, and walked towards Ye Jinyan, Song Xiang picked up the cup on the stone table and drank it all.
"That's my ......" Before Ye Jinyan could say anything, she drank all the tea in the cup.
Song Xiang smiled and wiped the water stains on her lips with her sleeve.
"I'll drink Sister Hua and Brother Shen's wedding wine at night, Sister Ye, why don't we go to the fourth aunt's side to have a look."
"Done." As soon as Ye Jinyan stood up, she suddenly felt that something was wrong, and she had to ask that grandmother to do so, if she violated the rules of this mansion, then she didn't know what to do.
With a smile like a spring breeze on his face, he walked over to the grandmother, who looked serious and calm, and had been on an errand in this house for at least twenty years.
"Mama, can we go to the courtyard of the fourth aunt to have a look?"
Ye Jinyan asked, the unsmiling appearance of the grandmother gave people a feeling of not being angry and self-assured, and the corners of the grandmother's lips finally moved, vaguely about to speak.
"The courtyard of the fourth aunt likes to be quiet, if you want to go, just go alone, and the other two will stay here to help."
"Okay!" Ye Jinyan glanced at Song Xiang and Xiao Man meaningfully.
Song Xiang and Xiao Man looked at her eyes and knew what they meant, so they had to return to the small courtyard dejectedly.
And Ye Jinyan followed the grandmother all the way to the fourth aunt's courtyard, this courtyard is quite elegant, with two plane trees planted at the door, which looks fresh and quiet.
When she walked to the door, the grandmother stopped, turned her head, and said to Ye Jinyan: "I am the head of the second lady's courtyard, and it is not appropriate to enter the courtyard of the fourth aunt, if you want to visit the flower girl, just go in." ”
I didn't expect that there were so many rules here, Ye Jinyan nodded, and walked towards the courtyard with a blank eye.
Stepping on the steps of the bluestone slab, the soles of the feet suddenly loosened, the fragrance of the earth, and the fragrant orchids and grass next to it, which are refreshing.
It was also very spacious, and I saw two slaves and maids walking towards this side.
Ye Jinyan smiled politely at the two of them, and said, "Hello two aunts, I am a friend of the flower girl, and I took the liberty to come here to visit my friend." ”
The two slaves and maids looked at each other, and these two maids were also very handsome.
On his head, he simply made a small bun, which looked a lot smarter and smarter, one was Danfeng eyes, and the other was a single eyelid, which looked like they had their own merits.
"Since it's a friend of the flower girl, let's come in quickly." The one with the eyelids spoke first.
Walking through the courtyard full of orchids, I saw a majestic door.
Ye Jinyan only felt that her neck was about to look up and sour, and even the courtyard of the fourth aunt was so luxurious and chic, it can be seen that the other eldest ladies, what kind of pomp would it be?
Suppressing the doubts in his heart, he walked inside, opened the door and looked, and saw Hua Xirui sitting on the round stone bench, and a woman standing next to her, dressed in a purple gauze robe, wearing a delicate and delicate jasper hairpin on her head, and her eyes were as beautiful as a pool of spring water.
is only seventeen, eighteen or nineteen, no wonder the skin is white and beautiful, and the temperament is dusty.
This should be the fourth aunt in the mouths of the next people, Ye Jinyan saw it, almost forgot to salute, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "I've seen Madame." ”
When Hua Xirui heard this voice, she turned her head in surprise, and saw that it was Ye Jinyan, who had been absent for a long time, and she was so excited that she burst into tears.
Grabbed her sleeve and asked, "Why are you here?" And without a word of notice? ”
Ye Jinyan looked at her in surprise and said, "What, didn't Brother Shen tell you about my coming?" ”
These two people are really weird, one has already sent a wedding card in advance, and the other has no idea.
Surprised, the woman in purple clothes smiled and said, "It turned out to be your friend, then the two of you have to get together, I, an outsider, won't bother you, Chunxin, go get some tea and pastries, and come over to entertain the guests." ”
"Yes."
The maidservant girl called Chunxin, who was a woman with extremely narrow and long Danfeng eyes, went to the small kitchen to get some crystal clear snacks and warm tea, and then retreated.
Ye Jinyan looked at Hua Xirui, and hurriedly put her hand on the back of her hand and said, "Don't you know that I came over, and Xiaoman came with me." ”
"I really don't know, and Zhu Qi didn't mention this matter to me, but tonight we just held a wine banquet in a hurry, as for the real marriage, his mother has never allowed it, and I am not qualified to enter the room, so I can only keep everything simple."
Listening to Hua Xirui's words, she was still wronged here.
Ye Jinyan was so angry that he jumped to his feet and said, "Why is this family so snobbish? Who said that you are not worthy of him, besides, with your strength, if you want to find a man who is better than Brother Shen, it is more than enough, and I don't know what prejudice this family has. ”
At this point, it was as if the anger in his eyes was about to gush out.
Startled Hua Xirui, she quickly pulled her to sit down, stroked her back and said: "Don't say that, if you let someone with a heart hear this, and you don't know what to say about me, I only rarely see his mother on weekdays, but after I really enter the Shen Mansion, I have to look up and not look down." ”
Ye Jinyan was still a little breathless, seeing that his good friend was actually treated so favoritically.
