Chapter 305: Tai Chi
Wen Yi secretly said "here" in her heart, but her face did not show any different color, she stood up, but she did not leave her position, reached out and poured herself a glass of wine, and said with a smile: "Uncle and grandmother are here to ask for guilt, and my nephew and granddaughter are here to toast your old man, and I will accompany you." A few days ago, because my husband was away from home, my nephew and granddaughter had to take care of the housework at home, and the second was to serve my grandmother...... I'm not afraid of your jokes, my husband is not at home, my nephew and granddaughter are afraid of gossip, and I don't dare to go out often, so I mistakenly come to you to please you, and please don't be surprised by your uncle and grandmother. β
How could Mrs. Yu be "surprised", she could only smile and say: "You are a child, you are all from your own family, what is there to blame?" And those who are concerned about you are right. He smiled at Mrs. Lu again: "Sixth brother and sister, your granddaughter is good at everything, but she is too careful, and she has to accompany her especially if it is a big deal." β
Old Madam Lu smiled: "This is her knowledge of etiquette. Everyone has the rules of everyone, and the juniors can't snub the elders for some reason, and then pretend to be okay, right? The sister-in-law has always been kind to the juniors, and everyone knows that you will not blame, but because you don't blame, she won't come to make amends. You can take her drink of wine with peace of mind, otherwise, she will still be angry with her in your heart. β
Old Madam Yu smiled and said, "Dare to love your grandparents and grandchildren who have made an appointment to come and get drunk with me today?" That's not possible, my amount of alcohol is not so small" After that, I really ordered the girl to pass the wine in Wen Yi's hand, and she took it and wanted to drink it.
Jiang Shi hurriedly stopped: "Mother-in-law, this wine today is not milder than what our family usually eats, can you only eat one bite?" β
Mrs. Lu smiled and said, "Look, your sister-in-law hasn't drunk it yet, and your daughter-in-law has taken care of it." Okay, the meaning is good, my sister-in-law is not young, if you drink this glass of wine, wouldn't it be the sin of our nine girls? β
"What are you listening to her nonsense," Old Madam Yu glared at Jiang, "Although I am old, I drank well when I was young, what is this small glass?" What is drunk at the guest table is also worthy of being called spirits? "Dry in one go. Everyone was busy admiring and praising the "good amount of wine" again and again.
Old Madam Lu smiled with satisfaction, but as soon as she drank the wine, she felt that her chest was burning badly, and she was a little stuffy, knowing that Fang Fang was in a hurry, and her face immediately turned a little whiter. Ruyi observed the words, hurriedly served hot tea, and whispered to the little girl to boil ginseng soup. As a result, when Jiang Shi saw it, he didn't dare to be careless, so he hurriedly asked his daughter-in-law Ge Shi to come forward and wait, and he also asked for warmth, which made the whole table know that there was a problem.
Seeing this, Wen Yi hurriedly showed a look of concern: "It doesn't matter, right?" It's all mine, it's not. If your uncle and grandmother feel drunk, let's go back to the house for a while. Eat two bites of hot ginseng tea and wash your face, maybe it will be better. β
Mrs. Lu originally planned to say no, but Jiang persuaded her worriedly: "It's better to follow the children's wishes, Hengzhu's banquet is almost over, your old man will go back to the house to rest for a while, and we will go to you to wait after we pack up." β
Mrs. Lu also said: "Let's do it, sister-in-law, you don't think it's good, everyone is worried, and they don't dare to let go of the joke." You should be cautious when you are older, I am too talkative, so it would be good if I didn't persuade you to drink. β
"Where? I want to drink it myself, how can I blame you? Old Madam Yu also complained a little bit about Mrs. Lu and Wen Yi in her heart, but she naturally couldn't say it clearly, and she thought about it in her heart, she felt that it was good to go back to the room to rest, and her body was important, and after a while, everyone went to her room, and she wanted to call Wen Yi to talk to her alone, which was much more convenient than saying it in front of so many people, so she smiled and said: "Then I will be out of company for the time being, and I will come over in a while" Seeing that everyone, including Wen Yi, nodded with a smile, and then helped Ruyi back to the room with satisfaction. Jiang Shi also rushed over with Ge Shi to wait.
Ruyi glanced back at Wen Yi, rolled her eyes, turned her head and continued to walk forward.
The people at the banquet were immediately halfway apart, but Wen Yi was in a good mood, but her face was not revealed, she ate the dishes slowly, and occasionally chatted with Wen Juan about happy things. Wen Xian was still sitting alone at the table, silent, and bowed her head in a daze.
Duan took a sip of wine, smiled and turned to Wen Yi: "Nine girls, hasn't Brother Xing'er's reward come down yet?" Do you know when the will will be? β
Wen Yi didn't know what she meant, so she replied with a smile: "Is this...... Isn't it coming? The generals of the Northern Expedition have not yet been rewarded, and our subordinates naturally have to lean back. "Dongxing heard the news, saying that the saint has been sick recently, so most of the government is handled by the prince, and there are some military affairs, and he doesn't dare to make his own decisions, and this reward involves the wrestling of several groups of people in the court, so it was also delayed.
Duan said with a smile: "Speaking of which, it's not the first time that your family has received the holy decree, but it's the first time that Brother Xing'er has received the decree at home, right?" If you don't understand something, just ask, we can help you refer to it. β
Wen Yi smiled and thanked her, but thought in her heart: If the eldest aunt Jiang said so, it would be fine, and the second aunt Duan would ...... When will you receive the decree? What's more, the rules and etiquette of this order were originally taught in the boudoir, but the teaching was more superficial, she wanted to find someone to ask for advice, just go directly to her grandmother, why do you have to find Duan?
Duan's didn't know that Wen Yi was vomiting in his heart, but instead led to his own topic step by step: "Speaking of which, Brother Xing'er is really a young hero, no wonder others praise him." If you change the life of the future who takes the path of Wenju, how many people can worship the five products at a young age? Your eldest brother has been smart since he was a child, he has only learned people, and he is a few years older, and he is only a seven-grade editor, and he doesn't know how many years he will spend in the Hanlin Academy in the future."
Mrs. Lu smiled slightly, turned her head to admire the chrysanthemums, Wen Yi quickly glanced at the seat, and found that all the people present were from the second uncle's side, except for her grandmother and Wen Ya, who was also a concubine, and had never been on good terms with her brother and sister, no wonder the second aunt dared to say such a thing. It's just that the girls and mothers-in-law who are waiting around may not have Jiang's eyes and ears.
So she smiled and replied, "You can't say that." Xianggong's future, but he fought with his life, although he was young, it was also because he happened to encounter a big war, because of fate. The eldest brother is different, he is on the right path to the imperial examination, although his grade in the Hanlin Academy is not high, but he has a great future in the future. Isn't there a saying that non-Hanlin is not allowed to enter the center? The people in the Hanlin Courtyard are all prime ministers, even if they survive for a few years when they are young, what does it matter? β
Duan smiled wryly and said, "I'm just saying that, although Brother Xian'er has a good future, Brother Xing'er is also good." I heard that this time in the Northern Expedition, there are many young generals who have emerged, and people outside say that these young generals will be the pillars of the court in the future."
Wen Yi suddenly understood. If it is said that Old Madam Yu and Master Gu have the intention to give Wen Ya to the nephew of General Huang Shen, or the young general who retreats to the second, then Second Master Gu and Duan's may not have this idea. They also have a concubine, the age is more suitable, it is already the age of marriage, although the identity of the biological mother is not as good as the elegant biological mother, and there is also a sister who married into the scholar's mansion, they can't afford to be a high-ranking official, but the young general from a poor family is an excellent marriage partner. Wen Juan's identity is also the daughter of the Jinshi family, and marrying a low-grade military attache does not disgrace others.
Wen Yi quietly glanced at Wen Juan, who was bored poking the chrysanthemum cake on the plate with chopsticks in one hand, holding his chin in the other, and looking around with his eyes, looking around with his eyes rolling, looking naΓ―ve. She couldn't help but sigh secretly, turned back to Duan and smiled: "Second aunt has praised it falsely, I only hope to accept your good words." And he said no more.
Duan Shi felt not very satisfied, and continued to ask with a smile: "I heard that last time you married Brother Xing'er, there were several generals who came to greet Brother Xing'er, most of them are quite young, I don't know if they are all heroes who have made meritorious contributions in this war?" β
Wen Yi smiled: "I don't know about this, and the second aunt also knows that I was covered all day that day, so how do I know who is coming." β
Duan was stunned, stabilized his mind, and continued to ask: "I'm just a little curious, I heard that those little generals are all young and promising, but I don't know which family they are, and who is their surname?" Our house is in the south, and we have seen a lot of scholars, but I really haven't seen many generals who have fought in battles. β
Wen Yi smiled: "Second aunt forgot? During the civil unrest last year, General Fu, who led the troops to suppress the bandits, had fought, and the Captain Luo who came to our Guzhuang with the prince of Dongping had also experienced in Beiwangcheng. It's just that he's a young general, and he can't compare with those generals who are old. β
Wen Yi was there to go around left and right, but he refused to follow Duan's meaning to go down, the latter couldn't help but sink his face slightly, and said with a dry smile: "That's right, how did I forget about them" coughed lightly, silently took a sip ......of wine in his cup, thought about it, and decided to get straight to the point, so he lowered his voice, approached Wen Yi and said: "Nine girls, there are many young military attaches that Brother Xing'er knows, if it is convenient for you, can you help the second aunt inquire and see if there is a little general with a good character, an innocent family background, and has not yet married a wife." You also know that your tenth sister is not young......"
She said it bluntly, Wen Yi didn't want to refuse clearly, so she smiled and said: "I understand, second aunt, don't worry, I will pay attention, if there is news, I will definitely send someone to send you a letter." "It's just asking for news, but it doesn't matter.
Duan was very satisfied, glanced at Wen Juan lovingly, and said with a smile: "You two sisters have always been close, you have to spend a little more time."
Wen Yi smiled, her mouth was empty, after a while, Jiang and Ge came back, and they were going to continue to eat and enjoy the flowers, Wen Yi quietly discussed a few words with Mrs. Lu, and said with a smile: "Grandmother is also tired, maybe she is in a hurry to eat and drink, and she is a little dizzy, let's go back as soon as possible." β
Jiang Shi hurriedly said: "Leaving so early? Since Aunt Six feels dizzy, why don't you take a break here? β
Old Madam Lu smiled and waved her hand: "It's okay, it's just that you eat too much, just blow the wind." Let's go back and make amends to your mother-in-law for me. β
She is an elder, and when she spoke, Jiang didn't have much to say. The Duan family just got their wish fulfilled, and they didn't want to offend the sixth room, so they kept silent on the side. Wen Yi quickly helped her grandmother to leave, and because she was worried that Mrs. Yu was "not good" and "didn't dare to disturb", she didn't even go to say goodbye.
The mother-in-law sent a message to the study in the front yard, and it happened that Liu Dongxing also finished eating, said that he was still injured on his body, refused to drink more, and said goodbye, and the family of three still sat in the carriage and left the Shilang Mansion.
They left a stick of incense, and the old lady Yu just woke up, and when she heard the news, her face immediately darkened, but she was helpless. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation, monthly pass, your support is my biggest motivation. )
