Three days later, after Song Yixiao sent her husband to the court, she specially summoned the people who were waiting for Jian Qingyue to come over and advise, and entrusted Aunt Yun to take care of their daughter, so she led the maid to board the car and go out.

The carriage entered the Qiu Mansion, and Gu Tongxu personally greeted her in the courtyard where she got off, and the two greeted her warmly, and went to the back hall to meet the Jiang family together.

Jiang was very happy to see Song Yixiao, and when he asked about Jian Qingyue, Song Yixiao said apologetically: "I'm afraid that she won't be sensible and quarrelsome, so I didn't bring it, but my aunt and uncle were worried about it!" ”

In fact, it is because Jian Qingyue is too young and afraid that places with many people are not good for children.

Jiang also knew this, and when he asked, he also expressed concern, although he hated her: "What's the matter?" The birthday banquet should be lively, and it is interesting when the children's house is there! ”

But then he said, "Well, let's say it, when the child grows up, he will come back next time, but he must bring it!" ”

Song Yi smiled and agreed.

Today's protagonist is Gu Tongxu after all, not to mention that the Qiu family will have to count on this daughter-in-law in the future, after greetings, Jiang said: "Today is a good day for Tongxu, you young people go to get together, my wife won't go to spoil the fun!" ”

"What did my aunt say?" Song Yi smiled and said, "Look at your energetic appearance, who says that you are old, you have to be suspected of being old!" ”

Gu Tongxu's mother-in-law thought she was old, but she was actually young - although she knew that it was a lie, Jiang was still amused, and urged her twice with a smile, before Song Yixiao and Gu Tongxu got up and said goodbye.

They went to the Jade Pavilion where the banquet was held today, but they saw that there were already a few guests who had arrived first.

Seeing that Song Yixiao was introduced by Gu Tongxu, they all said hello, and those who had a good relationship with Song Yixiao, like Xie Yiren and Jiang Muyao, were even waving their hands and motioning for Song Yixiao to sit down.

"Brother and sister, please take care of yourself!" Gu Tongxu stayed at the door and explained, "There are still a few sisters who have not arrived, I have to go to greet them, and if I am sluggish, I will also invite my younger sister Haihan!" ”

"My cousin-in-law is outside!" Song Yixiao originally came to avoid deducting points in front of the Queen Mother and Emperor Xianjia, so she would not feel neglected, and said politely, "It's good for my cousin and sister-in-law to go, Heng and Zhu are acquaintances today, do I still recognize my life?" ”

When he said this, several people nearby laughed: "Exactly! We haven't seen each other in a few days, so it's time to talk! ”

After Gu Tongxu left, Song Yi smiled and greeted everyone, sat opposite Xie Yiren and Jiang Muyao, and said with a smile: "You came so early!" I thought I'd get there first! ”

"You are a mother now, how old is Xiao Qingyue?" Xie Yiren was half envious and half self-deprecating, "No matter how much you want to go out early, you have to settle the child well, how can you compare with us?" ”

Jiang Muyao only got married because of this, and Yuan Xuepei's elders only have step-grandmother and uncle's family alive, and his relationship with these people is no longer bad, but bad, so naturally there is no pressure from the elders to urge the heirs.

It was because she was not in a complicated mood like Xie Yiren, and only smiled: "The Qiu family is relatively thin, and Mrs. Jiang, as an elder, will never come forward in person to help her daughter-in-law greet guests." And Gu Shao's grandmother. The first time I held a banquet in the imperial capital, I didn't dare to put it on a high posture, and most of the guests had to greet it in person - in this way, the guests who arrived first could only be as comfortable as they are now, and it was not interesting to come early. ”

Naturally, she said this quietly, and Xie Yiren and Song Yixiao didn't talk after hearing it, but only smiled slightly.

The three of them chatted for a while, and Song Yi smiled and saw a person a little farther away, so he said, "When did Miss Six arrive, I didn't pay attention when I came over!" ”

"I guess it's just here, right? I just saw that there was no one on that side? Xie Yiren glanced at him when he heard this.

Song Yixiao was thinking about whether to go over and say hello - after all, everyone knew that she was raised by the Hengshan Palace, and the daughters of the Hengshan King were still classmates, and they met today, so in order to express gratitude, they should go over to greet Lu Hai'er first, otherwise if Lu Hai'er came over first, some people would inevitably say that she was arrogant and forgot her roots.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Muyao shook her head and said: "Sister Xie, you came later than me, so I thought that the one was empty, but in fact, this Young Grandma Lu only arrived one step later than me, and she came early." It's just that Fang just went out for a walk, thinking that Shanyao came back after he came. ”

"I see!" Xie Yiren nodded, but didn't pay attention to it - she was not familiar with Lu Hai'er.

But Jiang Muyao then said: "The children of the Gu family have been in Hongzhou earlier, and our imperial capital always doesn't know about it. I will speculate about whether Grandma Gu's cousin is not very competitive? ”

Hearing this, Xie Yiren and Song Yixiao were both aroused by curiosity, and said in unison: "How did you say this?" ”

Grandma Lu's face was very ugly, so that Grandma Gu Shao was not very relieved after she brought her in, and asked her again and again if she was uncomfortable? If it's uncomfortable, don't force it - who knows that Grandma Lu first denied a few words, and then suddenly tears fell! Jiang Muyao covered her mouth with a fan, and while paying attention to the people around who were eavesdropping, she whispered, "At that time, Grandma Gu and I, as well as the first few people who arrived, were all startled!" ”

And no matter how bad Lu Hai'er's husband is, he is always Gu Tongxu's younger brother, Gu Tongxu saw this, so he naturally quickly found an excuse to take his brother-in-law out, so as not to be heard of his brother's unbearable.

"It took me so long to come back, it can be seen how much I have been wronged!" Jiang Muyao sighed, "It's just that Grandma Lu is from the palace, how many days will this be counted as entering the door?" was bullied like this, and her husband was a little unruly! ”

Speaking of this, I suddenly remembered that the rumored marriage was facilitated by Wei Mengying, the step-concubine of King Hengshan and Song Yixiao's biological mother.

hurriedly remedied, "Gu Shao is a famous man at home, and now he is in power, even if the children and grandchildren under his knees are unknown, this matchmaker will also step through the threshold!" Who nowadays is not proud to be married to the Gu family? Princess Wei told Grandma Lu about this family business, and it took a lot of effort to think about it! It's just that the fate between people is also uncertain. Otherwise, who doesn't do their best to tell their children that they are married, but where do they get so many resentful couples? ”

didn't know that Song Yixiao was sneering in her heart: "Of course, it took a lot of effort for my mother to tell Lu Hai'er about this family business!" If Lu Hai'er doesn't marry into the Gu family, how can he dispel the idea of the prince of Hengshan asking for Lu Ergongzi to marry the daughter of the Gu family? ”

She heard Wei Mengying say that it doesn't matter if Lu Hai'er's husband is not good, as long as she can prevent Lu Guanqun from marrying the Gu family's daughter-she also said that Wei Mengying said that at that time!

Who knows that the one who married Lu Hai'er is really not a good person!

Song Yixiao thought of the intersection with Miss Lu Liu by chance during the years of living in the palace, and the year she left the pavilion, she kept the kindness of Jinxun, and her heart was full of mixed feelings, and she secretly regretted it.

It's just that when she occasionally looked at Lu Hai'er, she found that the other party looked at her very strangely.

There is not much resentment and jealousy, but some sympathy and apology?

Song Yi smiled and was suspicious - after a while, the guests arrived, Gu Tongxu finally came back to preside over the scene in person, and after a little talk on the stage, the time was also up, and the banquet was announced.

After three rounds of drinking, Song Yixiao took advantage of the excitement to find Lu Hai'er: "Sixth Miss, you just looked at me, do you have anything to say to me?" ”

"Words?" When Lu Hai'er saw her coming over, her expression was a little wrong, as if she wanted to walk away, but she was sitting, Song Yixiao came quickly, but she blocked her, this will be asked directly by Song Yixiao, her face changed, as if she thought for a while, before she said, "Ah, yes!" When I left the cabinet before, the gift you gave was too valuable! I've been looking for a chance to say thank you, but I didn't do it until today! ”

Speaking of this, he picked up the wine bottle that was just poured in front of him, and said sincerely, "When you are young and ignorant, you are not sensible, and I have offended you a lot before!" But I don't want you to repay your grievances with virtue, and I am ashamed! Now I will make amends with you with this thin wine! ”

After speaking, he drank it all.

Song Yi smiled and hurriedly said: "What a raw thing Miss Six's words are! The palace raises me ......"

"The palace is not mine!" Lu Hai'er interrupted her, smiled self-deprecatingly, put down the wine bottle and said, "No matter what, after drinking this bottle of wine, I feel much better!" ”

Having said that, then she mentioned that she was sorry for Song Yixiao in the past - they are all trivial, so that people around and left can hear it, most of them will only think that Song Yixiao is careful, those who live in the palace eat the palace and drink the palace, and at the end they are still a little aggrieved and unwilling to accept it, but they are more squeamish than the biological children of other people's palaces, is this raising a master under the fence or raising an ancestor?

So after Song Yixiao diverted the topic a few times without success, she could only find an opportunity to leave, so as not to make the scene more and more embarrassing.

She just turned around, but Lu Hai'er had already secretly breathed a sigh of relief, revealing a look of relief!

Although Song Yixiao didn't see this scene, she also noticed that Lu Hai'er didn't tell the truth at all, and she was afraid that she would ask the truth.

So after returning to her seat, Xie Yiren asked Jiang Muyao about her results, and she said truthfully: "I always feel that she guessed my intentions, and deliberately used the pretext of reparation to block me from asking." It's just that I don't know how to do this meeting today, and I can't look at it to any avail, so I'll come back first. ”

Xie Yiren speculated: "Do you think that the ugliness of the family should not be publicized?" ”

She felt that this was very likely: Lu Hai'er was the flesh and blood of the palace before, but Song Yixiao was just a sojourner.

Now the two have come out of the cabinet one after another, Song Yixiao married first, married highly, her husband was noble, he was more handsome than the others, the husband and wife were in love, and he had a daughter; Lu Hai's son later came out of the cabinet and married equally, her husband's background is acceptable, but he is recognized as mediocre, so he became an heir and did not mention it, at least from the information provided by Jiang Muyao, she and her husband really don't get along very well.

Compared with the past and the present, even if Lu Hai'er is full of grievances, how can she be embarrassed to talk to Song Yixiao?

"She is Miss Wangfu in the end, and there are some who can't let go of it for a while." Xie Yiren comforted Song Yixiao like this, "Besides, this is just a marriage, maybe the two of them haven't gotten used to it yet, maybe it's okay to have a good time?" You don't have to worry too much either. ”

Next to him, Jiang Muyao rolled up her sleeves with a handbag, took cherries from the ice basin to eat, spit out a cherry pit when she heard the words, and said: "When I went to toast Grandma Gu just now, I took the opportunity to ask Grandma Lu about crying, what do you guess Grandma Gu said?" ”

"How?" Xie Yiren and Song Yixiao hurriedly asked.

"She said that Grandma Lu's biological mother, Aunt Sun of the palace, is dying, so she is sad." Jiang Muyao asked Song Yixiao, "Is this true or false?" ”

"How do I know? I've only seen Aunt Sun three or two times. Song Yi smiled and groaned, "However, go back and send someone to ask!" ”

This matter ended here, and there was nothing else to do at the banquet on this day - after the banquet was over, everyone went to the back hall to say goodbye to Jiang, exchanged a few words with Gu Tongxu, and then boarded the car and left.

Song Yixiao returned home with her front foot, and received a message on her back foot: "Her Royal Highness Princess Changxing has an accident, because the princess doctor and Her Royal Highness the princess are different from men and women, and the diagnosis and treatment are inconvenient, the princess's mansion sent someone to invite Aunt Yun to go!" ”
