Chapter 276: Sitting at the same table
When everyone ate seven or eight points full, Ye Huaicheng represented the Ye family and the male guests to feast and drink, and the female relatives chatted about the day after eating and refreshments.
Wei Fei walked along the corridor into the dim courtyard, the garden was a cluster of colorful flowers and trees, with unknown wildflowers blooming on the branches, probably no one took care of this garden, and it was full of decay.
Walking inside, I saw Qiu's mother pacing there anxiously.
As soon as she saw Wei Fei coming, she hurriedly glanced at the room with lights on the left, Wei Fei understood, stepped on the steps and pushed the door in.
The bright yellow candlelight faintly stained the hut, Liu Yuping sat on the Taishi chair half lazily, she was already well-maintained, and a rose-red brocade robe made her not inferior to the girl's beauty, but such a gorgeous face, her eyebrows and eyes were full of irritability.
"Mrs. Ye, this is in your Ye Mansion, it's not good to hear a private meeting with a foreign man." Wei Fei sat down, and the walnut in his hand stopped moving.
Liu Yuping glanced at him with disgust and said coldly: "Less." I promised to help me regain the Ye family's business in advance, you look at what you are doing, you obviously know what today's banquet means to the Ye family, why did you go to the banquet?!! β
"There are also the two in the second room, look at their pride, they have already stepped on my head, if this continues, I won't have to stay in this Ye family!"
Wei Fei pressed his triangular eyes impatiently and said, "You are not qualified to scold me loudly. β
"......" Liu Yuping choked and blackened her face.
Wei Fei snorted coldly, his face softened, and he continued: "It's not that I don't want to help, it's that this daughter of your deceased husband is really not an ordinary person, she looks as beautiful as a flower, the country is fragrant, and the Marquis of Ningbei bowed down under her skirt, and he didn't hesitate to come to the Wei Mansion to threaten me to a banquet for her personally, you say, do I dare to come?" β
Liu Yuping's face changed greatly: "What did you say?!" β
"You don't think that Ningbei Hou really came to Yuzhou because of the central government, right?" Wei Fei sneered, "That's all lying to you fools!" I saw the clue last time, we came to ask for debts, Ningbei Hou happened to appear, 18,000 taels, a full 18,000 taels, he paid it back for the girl without blinking an eyelid, heh, who believes that there is no ghost in it? β
Liu Yuping said: "This dead girl is the same as her mother, it's really a disaster!" β
Wei Fei sneered twice and said, "When I came, I had already sent someone to inform the Ziluo Buzhuang side of Ningbei Hou's banquet tonight. β
Liu Yuping first looked puzzled, then slowly understood, and suddenly realized: "You want the dead girl's fiancΓ© to know about her and Ning Beihou?" β
"Huainan is from a Qingliu family like a famous family, and he is a first-class minister in the court, do you think the one surnamed Jiang will give up if he knows about it?"
Liu Yuping's eyes rolled, the corners of her mouth were coldly hooked, and she said quietly: "Naturally, it is impossible." β
"That's it," Wei Fei looked expectant, "the show is yet to come." β
Liu Yuping's ugly face finally improved, Wei Fei looked at it, and teased: "It's just that this matter is going to spread, don't want the face of the girl of the Ye family, you are willing to let your daughter be implicated by her eldest sister in the future, and the tongue will fall behind her back, and it will make a big fuss, and the good marriage of the Chen family may not be lost." β
Liu Yuping's smile froze, and then she realized.
After struggling for a long time, she said: "You can't think of a way to do both, the Chen family's marriage is not easy to make up." β
Wei Fei looked disdainful, and his dark eyes stared at Liu Yuping quietly, Liu Yuping was furious, gritted her teeth and said: "That's it, as long as Ye Lingwu, a slut, can't be better, it's worth anything." Are you sure that the person surnamed Jiang can come after knowing the news? β
ββ¦β¦ Wait. Wei Fei was also irritable, how could anyone be brought a green hat and still be calm, he was not a man.
The two returned to the hall one after the other, Liu Yuping looked around, found that Ye Lingwu was not there, and pulled a little female envoy to ask, only to learn that Ye Lingwu led several ladies to the side hall to sober up.
Mother Qiu helped Liu Yuping to sit down, and when she saw her expression, she asked in a low voice, "Big lady, what did the eighth master tell you just now?" β
ββ¦β¦ It's nothing. Liu Yuping frowned and said, "By the way, you will send some people to Ziluo Cloth Village to guard after tonight, and I will know what is going on inside." β
"Yes."
ββ¦β¦ What about Ye Jinxiao? Liu Yuping looked at an empty seat.
Qiu's mother hesitated: "Big lady, the slave maid just heard from the little maid that she saw that the second girl and the Chen family brother seemed to have quarreled, and the second girl left the table in anger and didn't come back." β
Liu Yuping was silent, and only after a while did she spit out a sentence "It can't be done".
As soon as the words fell, outside the house, which had been silent for a long time, there was a very sudden announcement from the little girl.
"Scholar Jiang to-"
The noisy hall was like a bowl of cold water poured into boiling water, and it calmed down at once.
Shen Zhan's eyes darkened and he looked at the door.
After a while, a snow-blue figure came slowly, the momentum was flat but very cold, just at a glance, it made people feel a sense of unfathomable mystery.
"Isn't this Miss Ye's fiancΓ©, it's just a coincidence, it's just a coincidence!" I don't know who drank too much during the banquet, and said loudly.
Shen Zhan raised his head and drank a glass of wine, but he didn't react much, the faint candlelight fell on his face, a little dim, and there was a kind of handsomeness between his eyebrows.
"It's late, I hope you don't blame it." Jiang Yuan's voice was warm, and when everyone heard it during the banquet, they immediately laughed, how can they remember that they had to be punished for wine when they were late.
Liu Yuping spoke: "Son-in-law-to-be, hurry up and take a seat, the eldest girl has accompanied a few ladies to the side hall to sober up." β
As she spoke, Liu Yuping's gaze swept over Shen Zhan intentionally or unintentionally, and when she saw his black face, her heart became more and more happy.
Jiang Yuan walked lightly past everyone, sat down directly beside Shen Zhan, and said with a smile: "Young Marquis Shen doesn't mind sitting here, right?" β
Shen Zhan didn't make a sound, and poured himself wine.
Liu Yuping couldn't help snickering when she saw it, and glanced at Wei Fei without a trace.
Most of the people in the banquet are outside the situation, after all, they are all officials in the capital, and it is not strange to sit at the same table, but the women and young girls in the banquet are whispering endlessly.
Ye Lingwu accompanied the ladies to wake up after drinking, came back talking and laughing all the way, stepped into the house, and noticed the snow-blue figure on Shen Zhan's side at a glance.
How did she get here?!!!!
Ye Lingwu paused, almost dropped her jaw, finally sat down, didn't dare to raise her head at all, the gaze from the opposite side almost shot her through.
- Didn't this person say that he couldn't come, why did he come here again now to add to the blockage, obviously it's annoying enough, and he has to come over for fear that the world will not be chaotic and muddy.
