Chapter 99: Spring Wine
.. org, the fastest update of the latest chapter of the reborn Gaomen pet daughter-in-law!
The Li family in Qihe has a plan, and the Yuan family also has a request.
If it weren't for joining forces with Qihe Li's inner big house in exchange for the help of the inner big house for his own family, why would his son marry Li Yingge in the second room! No matter how you say it now, when you talk about marriage in the future, the son will become a second marriage, and the value will be discounted......
Thinking of this, Huang didn't refute his son's analysis, but said unwillingly, "The eldest princess of Chengyang said that when the eldest princess's mansion holds a banquet for spring wine in a few days, she will send a post to invite us over." If you only invite me, the eldest princess of Chengyang can say it clearly, and at that time, the outer courtyard of the eldest princess's mansion will also set up a banquet for men, and Tete will also invite you to go with you. ”
Yuan Xiaoyang is not a passive person, but listening to his mother's implicit unconvincing words, he showed an unoptimistic look on his face, but his tone was still respectful and soft, "Although Miss Chen Qi is only eleven years old, it is not good to be sent back by a foreign man. At that time, when I was on the first floor of the world, the eldest princess of Chengyang was obviously very satisfied with my 'knowledge', and attributed all the credit to you, which was easy to say and listen to to the outside world.
As for inviting me to the banquet by name, it is not that we are valued much, but that I don't want to be without thirty taels of silver here. Besides, since you know that the eldest princess of Chengyang has a well-known name, you should also know that she lives in a simple house and does not like to make friends with outsiders, except for the inevitable banquets such as the Four Seasons and Eight Festivals, and rarely deals with other women in the house.
This time I made an invitation, but I just wanted to put your assistance to Miss Chen Qi on the bright side, first gave a generous gift, and then invited us to come to the door, this back and forth will completely reveal tonight's matter, in the future, can we still repay the favor, and then take tonight's matter out and say it?
You must know that in the eyes of everyone, a merchant like the Yuan family is not even qualified to enter the concierge of the eldest princess's mansion. In this way, what we get is just a temporary face, but what the eldest princess of Chengyang gets is the inside. Mother, if you think about it, is that the truth? ”
Yuan Xiaoyang spoke slowly and logically, but every word was fine.
Huang, who has been immersed in the inner house for many years, calmed down a little, where would there be a reason that he didn't understand.
She was secretly frightened, she only felt that the noblewoman in Beijing was really good at those twisting methods, and she was full of the smile of the gentle and unscrupulous eldest princess of Chengyang, but they turned their heads and laid everything out.
Just looking at her son's immovable and handsome appearance, Huang's mood was only low for a moment, and immediately she was proud of her son, who had always been her arm and heart, and immediately changed her tone, "Since you say so, why don't I find an excuse to push the spring wine of the eldest princess's mansion?" You're going to go on a scientific expedition next year, and our family is just here, so you can't let the reputation of the powerful fall for nothing.
It just so happens that your father will arrive in a few days, and it just so happens that he is sick on the way, and no one can fault it......"
Yuan Xiaoyang shook his head with a smile, and said patiently again, "You don't have to be too careful. Don't have a different opinion about the eldest princess of Chengyang because of what I said, after all, it is one thing to settle grievances, and it is another thing for her to specially invite me to attend, which also means to let me show my face.
You know, the spring wine of the eldest princess's mansion is hard to find, in addition to the Miss Chen Qi under her knees, there are also three sons of the eldest princess, those three are above me, and they are all out of office, and there are many classmates in the same year among the male relatives invited, if I can enter the spring banquet of the eldest princess's mansion, there is only benefit and no harm.
Although the eldest princess of Chengyang is a faction with clear grievances, it is also a good intention, why do you want to push it out? Let's go and go for a while, what do you usually look like, and what do you still look like in front of those clan officials and women, in the end, looking at the face of the eldest princess of Chengyang, who will embarrass you face to face? ”
Huang was warmed up by Yuan Xiaoyang's words, that is, he decided to eat spring wine, and he was inevitably worried about the day's dressing, "It's a pity that the large luggage is behind, and I don't know if your father will be able to catch up with the spring wine when he arrives, I think tomorrow I will go to the street in person, there is that good clothing shop, I will buy you two good clothes first, let Zheng's mother take the maid to catch up first, and change it to be decent for you to wear to the banquet......"
Yuan Xiaoyang's eyebrows furrowed slightly when he heard this, and he let go again after only a moment, and followed Huang's words to say a few words about dressing, and suddenly his tone changed, and he said, "Mother, you are too risky in tonight's matter, if someone finds out about your head, can you still worry about the dress for the banquet with peace of mind?" ”
Huang had already prepared, knowing that what she was doing could not escape her son's discernment, and seeing that her son had endured it until now to question her, he knew that her son respected her the most, so he said disapprerovitly, "Did Steward Zheng tell you?" He is also yes, I have told him not to bother you with these little things, don't worry, I just watched the lantern dragon dancing team suddenly lose fire, so I had the idea to let the boys who followed Steward Zheng disperse into the crowd and take the opportunity to fish in the water.
Those burned-out stalls have their own five cities of soldiers and horses to take care of the compensation, and those boys are caught in the chaotic crowd to move their hands and feet, not to mention doing it secretly, just say that things have passed, where is there anything left? Steward Zheng has always been rigorous, don't you feel at ease when he does things?
Speaking of which, it is still your blessing and filial piety, because I was worried that I rushed over to pull people, but I happened to meet Miss Chen Qi who was separated from her subordinates, and even God helped you, what are you still worried about? Even if it was a risk, it seems that it was worth the risk now! ”
Huang's visit to the Lantern Festival tonight was originally another expectation, but by chance he bumped into a small fire on Qingyu Street, and saw a lot of brightly dressed ladies around him.
mentioned this Huang family proudly, and even regretted, "It's a pity that I didn't bump into the family I originally wanted to bump into." Miss Chen Qi looks innocent and cute, it's just that she is too young, and she is nearly ten years behind you, otherwise if she can manage to marry and enter the door......"
"Mother!" Yuan Xiaoyang listened to the more Huang said, the more he didn't feel like it, even if he knew that Yuan Zhai was not afraid of the wall, he couldn't help but interrupt Huang's unfinished words.
His heart was not as warm as the smile on his face.
Thinking of tonight's incident, my mother was doing something on the fire again, and I couldn't help but think of the death of my ex-wife.
People can be ruthless, although he completely used his ex-wife, he never thought of his ex-wife's death!
After he learned that the orphan daughter and widow in the second room were buried in the fire, under his questioning, he learned that the fire was acquiesced by his father, and the manpower arranged by his mother herself, secretly cooperated with the people in the inner house, and the fire cost the lives of his ex-wife and ex-mother-in-law......
Regardless of anything else, isn't this tantamount to taking the initiative to send a handle to the inner big house for a long time! What if you have already disposed of those few people who set fires!
It's just that his father is acting alone, but his mother, who has always consulted him in everything, also hides it from him!
also said that for the good of his future, the death of his ex-wife is less important than the life of his future marriage.
Mother also underestimated him too much, how could he be the villain who would use a woman's life as a bargaining chip!
The more Yuan Xiaoyang thought about it, the more inexplicable and complicated his heart became, and he endured it so that he didn't bring up the old things again, and then thought of another Li Yingge with the same name as his ex-wife, a strange light flashed in his eyes, and he changed the topic and said, "You prepare a special product we brought tomorrow and send it to Li Ge's old mansion." ”
Huang frowned, "Then Xie Shi is neither yin nor yang, why do we dare to come to the door?" In the past, Yingge also said that Xie Shi was a hearty and straightforward character, but I think she is just a shrew who doesn't know how to be polite and has an unforgiving mouth......"
Hearing his mother mention his ex-wife at once, Yuan Xiaoyang frowned in his heart, got up and said, "We don't care what others do, we must always fulfill the courtesy, and no one can find fault with us when the time comes." ”
Since Chen Jinyu is the beloved daughter of the eldest princess of Chengyang, he doesn't believe that the eldest princess of Chengyang will not send someone to carefully investigate the details of the Yuan family after tonight.
When the time comes, it will naturally be found out that they have done in-laws with the clan of Li Ge's old mansion.
When Huang heard this, he immediately put aside his dissatisfaction with Xie's high profile, and agreed to come down.
Yuan Xiaoyang confessed a few more words, then bowed down and retreated, and returned to his residence in the front yard.
Huang looked at his son's clear back as tall as a green bamboo, and smiled contentedly.
Not to mention that Yuan Zhai was busy settling down and preparing for the banquet, but when it came to the appointed day, Chen Jinyu handed over the prayer post and boarded the door of the Li Mansion.
Xie saw that Chen Jinyu was a lively and active person last time, and he didn't keep her much at the moment, but after a simple greeting, he asked Xie's mother to take Chen Jinyu to the South Garden.
As soon as she saw Li Yingge waiting at the South Garden Gate with her maid, Chen Jinyu ran over with her skirt and pulled Li Yingge and said with a smile, "Good Yingge, my mother has been taking me with her all day long and staring at me with a good eye, and now thanks to your blessing, I can finally come out and play by myself!" I'm here on an empty stomach, so if you have anything to eat or drink here, send it to me quickly. ”
The words made Xie's mother and the others laugh.
Li Yingge took her to the viewing pavilion that had already been arranged, and after several contacts, she knew that Chen Jinyu was a beautiful outlier, so she no longer held the beautiful shelf, and said politely, "There are all the delicious things, but the only good ones are tea, if you want to come to me to drink secretly, then take a break as soon as possible." ”
Before the two of them replied to the letter on three or five days, Chen Jinyu complained that the eldest princess of Chengyang was very watchful, and she went to banquets everywhere during the Chinese New Year, and she was not allowed to drink gluttonously.
Chen Jinyu was immediately deflated when she heard this, and she persevered with Li Yingge for a while, and when she sat down in the viewing pavilion, she took out a red gilded invitation, and said with a smile, "Five days later, I will have spring wine at home, na, I will personally send you an invitation, Miss Li Er, are you going?" ”
Listening to her playful tone, Li Yingge took the post and read it carefully, raised his eyes and said, "Thank you Miss Chen Qi for the invitation, I will definitely attend at that time." ”
Chen Jinyu originally thought that Li Yingge was very easy to tease, but once she got acquainted, she found that this person was also a person who didn't suffer a loss, and she didn't play with her anymore, so she only regretted, "It's a pity that your younger brother in elementary school has returned to school, otherwise I will invite him to join me, and I will have more people to play with me." ”
It's more than one person who makes her bully!
Li Yingge was secretly amused, and when he heard this, his heart moved, and he asked, "Did you still invite a male dependent for the spring wine of the eldest princess's mansion?" ”
