Chapter Eighty-Six: Factions Are Clear
Laughter.
Staggered.
Three rounds of drinking.
Zhong Yan raised his hand to signal quietness, looked around at the group for a moment, and said loudly:
"From now on, give Jiang Ping the name of 'Mrs. Ping', Yu Qingyao 'Mrs. Yao', Xia He 'Mrs. He'......"
After a pause, Zhong Yan's gaze moved to Li Jingqiu, "There is also Li Jingqiu's 'Mrs. Qiu', if I am not away from the outside, I can consult with the four of them if I am undecided." β
"Yes, sir!"
Everyone responded in unison.
Jiang Ping, who was sitting on the left side of the head, had a sour nose and was full of affection, and couldn't help but reach out under the table and hold her husband's hand tightly.
Yu Qingyao's heartstrings on the right were also plucked, and her mood was a little complicated, knowing that she only had this status now because she was a monk, and her emotions were definitely far inferior to the few concubines who entered the mansion first.
Li Jingqiu was indeed very shy and shy, and as soon as he looked at Zhong Yan, he immediately lowered his head with a red face, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
On the contrary, it was her mother, Zi Ying, who was extremely excited, grabbed her daughter's hand and whispered in her ear.
Several members of the Li family next to him were also smiling, and they all felt emotional, knowing that Li Jingqiu, who had not yet completely 'passed the door', was treated differently because of his father's face.
The happiest and proudest is the 'Mrs. He' Xia He, who unabashedly grinned at the corners of her mouth, got up with a cup and said with a smile: "Thank you husband for your favor and trust, I will definitely not disappoint your expectations, concubine I salute you!" β
Zhong Yan looked over and couldn't help but want to roll his eyes, but he also smiled and raised his glass, "You drink less." β
This little concubine Xia He is the most special one in the house, if you talk about appearance, she is inferior to Tang Xiaoshu, Zhou Yunning, Yan Sandao, and her intelligence is not as good as Dongcao, Jiang Ping and others.
Moreover, Zhong Yan knew that Xia He was careful and thoughtful.
But she looks cute, there is a playful temperament between her eyebrows, and her smile is full of eccentricity, which is extremely pleasing.
Even if you do something or say something inappropriate, it is difficult for others to be disgusted.
And what makes Zhong Yan feel the most rare is her mentality.
After entering the Zhong Mansion, in a short period of time, Xia He lost the prudence and humility that everyone adhered to, and seemed to put himself on the same level as him.
Especially when she said the 'modern words' she learned, Zhong Yan had an illusion, as if the other party was from the world of her previous life, like a little girlfriend.
That's the charm of personality.
Delicious food and drink.
Zhong Yan deliberately ordered Tang Xiaoshu again, "Xiaoshu, I heard that you have a unique guzheng skill, are you interested in having a song?" β
"Yes, it is an honor for Shu'er to be able to present a song for my husband and everyone!"
Tang Xiaoshu smiled skillfully, and only she knew how much her mood had changed on this day.
At this moment, she was worried and conflicted, and she had received so much important news from the council today, and there were many opportunities to spread it, but she had been hesitant and had not done it until now.
She was afraid that the longer she continued to stay in Zhongfu, the more difficult it would be to complete the taskβnot that she couldn't do it, but that she didn't want to.
Dinner.
Everyone chatted about family routines and anecdotes, and Zhong Yan roughly talked about his expectations and plans for the future of the family.
Since it provoked a lot of people's eyes to shine and blood surging, as if they saw the moment when the Zhong clan rose.
It's time to go.
Zhong Yan raised his glass and said with a smile: "Let's have a toast together, everyone should unite as one and work together to fight for the future of the Zhong family!" β
"For the Bell Clan!"
"For the Bell Clan!"
"For the Bell Clan!"
After drinking it all and putting down the cup, Zhong Yan glanced at Yu Qingyao and then at Jiang Ping.
"Ping'er, you come to arrange, choose an auspicious day after the year, Qingyao will enter the Zhong Mansion and marry me, invite guests, and arrange the residence to the backyard of No. 10 first."
"Yes, husband!"
Zhong Yan got up, "You guys drink and have fun, don't be too late." β
"Congratulations to my husband (master)!"
"Congratulations to my father-in-law (uncle)!"
The crowd stood up to see each other off.
"Filial piety!" Zhong Yanchao beckoned his hand and led Zhong Xiaozhong out of the hall and to the tenth courtyard.
Wait for the two to leave completely.
The feast continued, and the laughter continued.
Li Yang said with a smile: "I'm so happy to drink a lot today, I'm afraid I have to squeeze in one night with Sister Ziying, the Xue Mansion is so big, I don't know when it will be repaired, and it will be convenient for the family to live together at that time......"
At present, Li Shangwen, Li Jingqiu and their biological mother Ziying have a separate house in Zhongfu.
Li Yang's mother and son and Li Qiu's are only guests.
Although the Zhong Mansion has two courtyards connected together, it is not as big as the previous Li Mansion, and the current servants of the Zhong Mansion are almost thirty.
Hearing the words 'family', Jiang Ping felt a little harsh, and she didn't find a better excuse to make excuses, it was only a few miles from Zhongfu to Li's house, and it didn't take half an hour.
She knew that she hadn't paid as much attention to Li Yang recently, but she was also polite and thoughtful, greeting her with a smile.
But today, the other party went to the study, and I didn't know what to talk about with my husband, so I just nodded lightly and said hello when I said goodbye, but laughed with Xia He enthusiastically.
But.
She knew that Li Jingqiu married into the Zhong Mansion, and Li Liu's Ziying accompanied her, even if the second room Li Qiu and Li Shangwen joined the Zhong Mansion, it was impossible for Li Shangwu to become a family with the Zhong Mansion.
The continuation of the Li family's incense is Li Henian's last wish, cooperation is cooperation, Jiang Ping knows that no matter how much her husband takes care of her, she will uphold this point and help the Li family to become independent.
With her eyes and eyes, she naturally noticed that Li Yang coveted her husband, and that look had never been seen by Li Henian in the past.
And the reason why he doesn't care about other women like that, and he rejects Li Yang so much, in the final analysis, is that Jiang Ping herself is in awe of Li Yang, who is also the wife of Changfang, and is quite jealous.
Even she didn't realize this, maybe she did, but she didn't want to admit defeat.
Yan Sandao said: "After the year, I will contact the craftsmen, spend more money to find more people, if it is fast, it should be able to move over in a year and a half, everyone can put forward any opinions and ideas, and the husband said that the architectural layout inside can be greatly changed, and practicality is the first......
At present, many of the Xue Mansion houses are useless building facilities, wasting a lot of area resources.
Yu Qingyao couldn't help but speak, "Although the Xue Mansion is large, it does not contain a formation cultivation room, and when the time comes, the husband will cultivate ......."
Yan Sandao: "This husband will solve it himself, and the husband of the tenth courtyard has bought it, so it is okay to cultivate here." β
Yu Qingyao's heart moved, and he actually bought it, but thinking of the dazzling two thousand spirit stones, it was clear that he had specially invited an array mage to build a spirit gathering array.
As for the identity of the mage of the Zhong Yan Array, she had already learned that she had no way to build it by herself with half a pot of water.
ββ¦β¦β
Not much.
Zhou Yunning got up and walked to Jiang Ping and squatted down, blushing and shyly saying, "Eldest sister, my sister is too strong to drink, so I want to go back to the room to rest first." β
Jiang Ping glanced at Dongcao and said with a smile: "I have to go back early to prepare, the master has been out of the customs for a long time, remember to be considerate and serve attentively." β
"Yes, big sister."
Subsequently.
The crowd dispersed one after another.
Jiang Ping led Yu Qingyao to the No. 10 backyard to arrange a residence, the closest place to the cultivation room, followed by Yan Sandao, Jiang Huan and others.
Xia He gathered the four sisters of Qiuxiang, Dongcao, and Bafang Jiufang, and talked about their vision for the future together.
Li Yang's family also had the demeanor of a master, inviting a few people from the Li Mansion, as well as the two concubines who had just arrived in the Zhong Mansion, to drink tea and talk.
A scene of factional distinction.
When Li Shangwu led his wife away, Li Shangwen pulled him aside.
"Brother, isn't it good for my aunt to do this? Aunt Ping is obviously unhappy, but don't bother the little sister! β
Li Shangwu also frowned, "I'll talk to my mother when I go back." β
Then he sighed, "The little sister is too, her temperament is so weak, her father-in-law treats her so well, she likes it in her heart, but she doesn't know how to take the initiative, this big woman, I don't know if she can stand firm in the future." β
