Chapter 240: Where Did the Child Go?
On Zhuque Street in Chang'an City, in the frame of Emperor Li Yuan, Li Yuanying was almost kicked out of the car by his father, why? It's not that just now he scolded in front of the old man, and kept complaining about the bastard who recruited Xiaodou behind his back...... Coincidentally, this bastard was none other than his own old man in the carriage.
"Dad, let's not go back to the tavern, I'm fine, let's go to the palace with the team to participate in the celebration banquet." Li Yuanying said with a little weakness.
Lao Li Yuan asked puzzledly: "Can the wine and food of the celebration banquet be comparable to your craftsmanship?" You wouldn't be hiding from the kids, would you? ”
Li Yuanying smiled and said embarrassedly: "How come? I'm a father, she's a daughter, how can there be a reason for a father to be afraid of his daughter? ”
"Really? Knowing the son is more than the father, the father is not old and confused, you are obviously afraid of the little pocket. Li Yuan pierced Li Yuanying's careful thinking and scolded with a smile.
"No, absolutely not, Mingyue entered the palace first and waited for Doudou Rong to return, and now Doudou is going home directly, I have to go to the palace to pick her up, right?" Li Yuanying found a lame reason.
Old Li Yuan didn't poke it this time, but he reminded with a smile: "Just you and Mingyue and his wife came out?" That is to say, there are still six side concubines in the family? You're not at home, and now Xiao Doudou has returned home by himself, and he has met six princesses he doesn't know, tsk......"
Ga! Li Yuanying was instantly dumbfounded and slapped her thigh, isn't it, what kind of temper does her daughter have? If you quarrel with a few princesses, it is possible to tear down the house, thinking of this, Li Yuanying Khan came down, and hurriedly shouted to the inner servant Lao Wang who was driving outside: "Lao Wang, hurry up, hurry up and turn around and go to the tavern, the fastest speed!" ”
Old Li Yuan held down his son and shouted, "Wait!" In my opinion, it is most inappropriate for you to go back now. ”
"Daddy, the temper of the dough, the divine power, what should I do if the tavern is demolished? The princesses have only been married for a few days, in case she beats her up......" Li Yuanying didn't dare to think about it.
The old man laughed and said, "You kid is still too young!" Now you go back, what are you going to do if they're fighting? Who's going to help? ”
This one......
Li Yuanying was immediately asked, yes, who is going to help? Of course, it is to hold down the daughter and apologize to the princess, after all, they are elders, but in this way, they will really offend their daughter, and it will definitely not be easy to coax them in the future.
Help your daughter, hold down the princess? It doesn't seem realistic either.
"So, Daddy, you have an idea? I'm afraid that I won't be able to hold my hands and break people again, and it won't be good to spread it in the future. Li Yuanying whispered.
Lao Li Yuan stroked his beard and promised: "Don't worry, although Doudou is naughty and occasionally messes around, she is never confused, the little girl is shrewd, you have been educated, she will not do it casually." Now what you have to do is to pretend that you don't know, whether the house is demolished or the flood is raging on the battlefield, let a group of women make trouble, and the trouble will stop when they are enough, maybe they will discuss their own solutions, which is better than you mediating in the middle. ”
Li Yuanying couldn't help but give her father a thumbs up, amazing, sure enough, Jiang is still old and spicy, this time I really took it.
"Let's go, go to the palace, after participating in the celebration banquet, you accompany me to play chess in Daming Palace, let Mingyue go back by herself, she is your concubine of King Qin, and she is the housewife of the backyard of King Qin's mansion, whether it is a side concubine or educating children, it will be her cooking. When it comes to subduing everyone, Mingyue is stronger than you, I can see it, you kid is dealing with family affairs, tsk...... It's really useless, I haven't gotten the true biography of my father at all. ”
Old Li Yuan reprimanded unceremoniously, how dare Li Yuanying refute, he can't say that he is from the future, and he has not yet adapted to the ancient system of male superiority and female inferiority, right?
"What about the kids? Didn't you come back? Why don't you come to the celebration party? Princess Qin Cui Mingyue pulled her husband and asked.
Li Yuanying recounted what happened, Cui Mingyue smiled and leaned back, "Husband, you know that you are used to her, but you forget that no matter how good she is, she still has to listen to the discipline of her father." In the future, I will hand it over to the concubine, and let you take it down, I'm afraid that Chang'an City won't be able to accommodate her. ”
"Uh-huh, Madame is wise, and my husband thinks so too." Li Yuanying nodded again and again, and said that he was a loving father and a strict mother, and the ancients did not deceive me.
Princess Cui didn't stay long, simply ate something and left, and went home to take care of the housework first, Li Yuanying looked at his wife's confident back, a big stone in his heart finally landed, returned to the banquet hall and shouted: "Bring wine, don't get drunk tonight!" ”
Well?
In an instant, the hustle and bustle of the entire banquet hall stopped abruptly and became silent, and everyone looked at His Royal Highness King Qin on the seat in a daze.
Li Yuanying wondered: "What are you looking at this king doing?" Happy today, drink heartily! ”
No one answered, Li Er couldn't help coughing lightly: "Think twice, fifth brother, you shouldn't drink, let's eat more vegetables." ”
What do I mean I should not drink alcohol? Do you look down on my brother for how much I drink? Li Yuanying expressed dissatisfaction.
Li Er really wanted to cover his eyes, and said in his heart that I don't say that I look down on your amount of alcohol, but that you don't have a lot of alcohol at all, and you can't drink too much wine, don't you have a little pressure in your heart?
Looking at his younger brother's expectant eyes, Li Er gave the inner servant Lao Gao a look, "Go, bring a jar of wine from my collection to King Qin, Wulang easily doesn't drink, if you want to drink, drink the best in the world!" ”
Lao Gao understood, bowed down, and actually went to order someone to go to the wine cellar to get a small jar of fruit wine for the child to drink, and the king of Qin would get drunk as soon as he drank other wines.
Besides, Cui Mingyue, who returned home, looked at the neat six princesses working under the stove one by one, and after a little thought, she understood the reason, "But I was negligent, I forgot that my sisters are not good at cooking, and there is no maid at home to take care of, so I knew that everyone would go to the palace together." ”
"Where is my sister, I watch my husband cook as briskly as a cloud on weekdays, and I know that it is difficult as soon as I get started, and it is useless for our concubines." Several princesses blamed themselves.
Cui Mingyue smiled, took over the work in everyone's hands, and said while lighting the fire: "Go to the kitchen and practice these things slowly, you all go out, leave it to me, when my husband was in business, I cooked." Actually, you can go out and eat. ”
Several people looked at each other, as if there was something unspeakable, and no one spoke.
Cui Mingyue asked curiously: "By the way, I heard that Doudou came back early, have you seen it?" This kid is spoiled by me, and I haven't offended you, have I? ”
"No, no, the little princess is very smart and cute, and she gets along with us very well, and when it is almost time to eat, she goes out to play by herself, and I don't know where she went." Wang Yuyan hurriedly explained.
When Cui Mingyue saw everyone's faces, she felt that something was wrong, and asked, "What's wrong?" What the hell is going on? Who's going to talk about it. ”
At this time, Li Ruonan, the outspoken princess of the Li family of Zhao County, couldn't help but say: "Eldest sister, it's not a big deal, it's just that we gave the little princess some meeting gifts." ”
"Oh...... Hey, it's all family, why bother seeing each other like this. This kid has never been short of money, and most of the treasures in the old man's Daming Palace have been given to her. By the way, how much did you give her? The husband has an explanation, usually not to give the child too much money, otherwise she will take it out and spend it indiscriminately, then it is not to spoil her, but to harm her. Cui Mingyue said with a smile.
"No, not much, just eight thousand taels." Zheng Liwan said with a little weakness.
Oh...... Eight taels, I didn't ask, wait a while, how much? Sixth sister, you can make it clear, do you confirm that it is eight taels of silver?
"Eldest sister, you heard it wrong, it's not eight taels, it's eight thousand taels! And it's eight thousand taels each! We really didn't expect this to be the case, we knew that there were family rules in front of us, and we didn't dare to say anything......" The second princess quickly explained.
Oh, my God......
Cui Mingyue almost sat on the ground, and her face darkened in an instant, "Where is that girl?" What the hell is going on? She's not sensible, aren't you sensible? Whose child can give 8,000 taels for a greeting gift? ”
