Chapter Forty-Three: The Dinner Party Is Much
When it came to the reunion dinner, Chu Xi knew in what capacity Lin Qingyu came.
"Uncle Chu, my father and mother have gone out to travel, thank you for taking me in today." Lin Qingyu smiled, and with a wave of his hand, the little guy came up with a lot of gift boxes.
Chu Bingsong's face wanted to laugh a little but he held back the embarrassment of not laughing, Anping Marquis Lin Zhuyin has always been a free man, when he was young, he exchanged his great military exploits for the title of Marquis of Anping, and after marrying his daughter-in-law and giving birth to a son, he handed over the military power to play around, and did not socialize with any powerful people in the court, so let his only baby son come to their house for the New Year, what does this mean?
"This is Mrs. Chu, look so young, I don't know what method to use? I'll go back and please my mother. Lin Qing smiled foolishly.
Qin Xue laughed when he said this: "Where is there any way, not worrying about it every day is the best way." ”
"In this way, I heard that there have been a lot of troubles in General Yang's mansion recently, aren't you worried?" Lin Qing said casually.
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward, Qin Xue's mother's house was on the mansion of the Duke of Qin, and General Yang's mansion was the family of Chu Xi's biological mother Yang Pei.
"Yo, don't you know? Today's Mrs. Chu is the young lady of the Qin family. Chu Li didn't think it was a big deal to see the excitement, Chu Kan glared at her, and she was still smiling.
"Okay, the prince heard that he just came back from studying in the mountains, and he can't be blamed if he doesn't know." The old lady was the most stable, and handed the Buddhist beads in her hand to Yahuan Baixue on the side: "Let's eat." ”
Chu Li looked at Qin Xue, whose face was a little dark, and stood up with a smile: "Mother, my daughter-in-law is here to serve you for dinner." With that, he got up, stood beside the old lady, and began to cook for her.
Chu Xi sat beside Qin Xue, raised her eyes to Lin Qingyu's smiling eyes at the table, and helplessly showed a little smile, bowing her head to eat.
Except for Qin Xue's mother and daughter, everyone else is quite happy at this meal, following the rule of eating without saying anything, only the occasional sound of chopsticks touching the bowl on the dinner table, after eating, everyone went to the front yard to watch the singing, and all the grandchildren also stepped forward to say the words of the instructions to be lively and auspicious, but a voice was particularly harsh.
"Big sister, I heard that you and the prince have known each other for a long time?" Chu Xiuxiu's voice was not small, and many eyes looked at it at once, but Old Madam Chu frowned, but she was still focused on the play on the stage.
Chu Xi smiled lightly: "I had a relationship with the prince in the prison. ”
As soon as Chu Xiu's words came out, Chu Xiuxiu was embarrassed, what kind of prison is this big holiday.
"This is the third lady in the house?" Lin Qingyu asked with a smile.
Chu Xiuxiu's face was hot, and she lowered her head shyly: "Yes, the courtier's daughter is Xiuxiu, and she will be in time next year." "She is only less than a year younger than Chu Ji and them.
"I see." After Lin Qingyu asked, he stopped talking, Chu Bingsong thought about it, and saved Lin Qingyu from harming his daughter here, so he simply got up and said, "The prince's room has been arranged, why don't you go and have a look?" ”
Lin sighed with a smile, and when he left, Chu Xiuxiu also made an excuse to leave.
Chu Zhenzhen glanced at the empty seat next to her, and said strangely: "The third sister loves to be lively, why did she go back early today?" ”
Chu Dai'er lowered her eyes and said softly: "I'm afraid I'm tired." ”
"Really?" Chu Zhenzhen said noncommittally, looking at Chu Zhen, who was sitting steadily, remembering what had been arranged, the corners of her mouth hooked.
"Grandmother, is the play good-looking, was it specially chosen by my mother?" Chu Zhenzhen leaned on Old Madam Chu like a cat.
The old lady laughed out loud and glanced at Chu Xi on the side: "Chu girl, sit next to me." ”
