Chapter 142: The Banquet in the East Palace (Beginning)

Chapter 142

Early the next morning, the five girls came to the main courtyard. Li got up with the feast bell, and while calling the little girl to let the five girls into the room, he said to the feast bell: "Wear more clothes today, the sky is getting colder and colder." ”

The feast bell sighed, and Guan Gui hurriedly took a thick jacket and put it on her. After cleaning her face, her own mother-in-law waited for the feast bell to comb her hair, and Xu's mother was learning the style on the side, constantly gesturing with her hands in her sleeves, thinking of learning one or two tricks, so that the girl's hair could look better in the future.

When the fifth girl came in, Li was looking at the account book, and when she saw her, she beckoned, "Come here, I'll take a look-my face is also frozen red, this god!" ”

The fifth girl came to her side and laughed, "Mother, just one night, I always feel cold." ”

Li: "In winter, God changes his face the fastest, saying that it rains, it rains, and when it blows, it blows." ”

The feast bell combed his hair, and there was a peach hairpin on his head, decorated with tassels, moving and shaking slightly. She turned around with another peach hairpin and said, "In a few days, it won't snow again." ”

Kurishi smiled, "That's still early, the snow in Kyoto doesn't fall so early." ”

When the five girls saw that the bell had turned around, they winked at her. Feast Bell pursed her lips and smiled, shaking her head slightly. Li Shi looked at this, then at that, and gently patted the fifth girl's hand, "Do you have something to hide from me?" ”

The feast bell came over with the peach hairpin, inserted the hairpin into the fifth girl's bun, and then sat on the other side of the Li family, "Auntie, I want to go to Xiaoxishan Villa with the fifth sister again." ”

Li Shi was not surprised, but smiled and said, "Don't you think it's fun?" It's remote, but it's perfect for winter. ”

The fifth girl: "Mother, the second sister-in-law wants to follow your housekeeper and can't be empty, but Yanling and I have nothing to do, thinking about going to live for a few more days, it's good to be relaxed." ”

Li: "This also makes it. I'll add more mothers-in-law and nursing homes for you, and let your third and fourth brothers accompany you, okay? ”

The fifth girl was a little weak-hearted. She didn't think it was good.

After all, Yan Ling went to Xiaoxi Mountain to pay tribute to Sui Ming Ting, which could not let the third brother find out. Although she likes Yanling very much, she also likes the third brother very much. Yan Ling likes Sui Mingting, it is a kind of infatuation, she can understand and understand Yan Ling, but the third brother is a man, how can he understand Yan Ling like her?

No matter how good a man is, he is arrogant and arrogant, obviously they also have three wives and four concubines, but they require women to be their own both physically and mentally.

So forget it, it's good to do this kind of thing secretly.

And Yan Ling also said that she went back this time to give herself an explanation, maybe her infatuation will dissipate after the explanation? Without the dead, there is only one living person left in her heart, the third brother. From this point of view, it is still necessary to go to Yanling, and he did not let the third brother go with him, but it was also for his good.

There are some things that are better off not knowing for a lifetime.

The fifth girl has thousands of ravines in her heart, and she is a little more meticulous than the feast bell, "Mother, the third brother and the fourth brother still have to study, although because the third brother is sick, his father has not forced him to study and improve, but he can't blindly abandon his studies, otherwise, even if his father and the third brother can explain it, how can they explain it to the old man of Buyuchuan?" ”

This is extremely true. Li Shi was quite regretful and said, "Then you two can go." This is the only time, we are not around, you have to take care of yourselves. ”

Her hand stroked the heads of the two, "Hey, it's a pity, it's about to be closed after the ceremony, and your second sister-in-law and I can't go, otherwise there will be no banquet in Kyoto recently, so you don't have to go out, it's good for us to go together for a few days." ”

Feast Bell rubbed her hand with her head, "Auntie, we'll be back soon." ”

As he was talking, the second young lady stepped on the dew and came in. She was cold, Li Shi hurriedly got up and handed over the small hand stove on the table, "Warm up your hands!" ”

The five girls and the feast bell sat on the side, there was a large empty piece in the middle, the two looked at each other, and then smiled and said together: "Mother/aunt, you are eccentric." ”

Li: "That's natural, Yun Niang helped me fuck inside and out, what a sin!" I'm not afraid to say it in front of you, in the whole family, I love Yun Niang the most. ”

The second young lady felt comforted. Other people's mother-in-law is afraid that her daughter-in-law will seize power, and she holds on tightly to the middle feed, and some are willing to give up power, but the public account at home is very rotten, and the outside looks good and the inside is empty, so she asks her daughter-in-law to sell the dowry to make up for it, that is, the daughter is married, and wants to plan some dowry from the daughter-in-law to fill the faΓ§ade, but her own mother-in-law not only teaches her, but also does not want her to be tired, and manages with her, if the mother-in-law does not listen to her, it must be to support her, not only that, but the mother-in-law also often subsidizes her, so that she can buy more happy objects.

Such a mother-in-law, is really her blessing, now the old lady back to Muzhou, the family is getting better and better, every time she goes back to her parents' house, A-Niang says that her life is good, but everything is good, only one is not good. A-Niang said that she had to have a baby.

"Even if it is a daughter, it is also the bloodline of the Ningguo Mansion, and it is also your reliance, otherwise wait a few more years, you will be old and will not be able to give birth, so what should you do? To put it mildly, your mother-in-law is kind to you now, but you haven't been able to have children? ”

When the second young lady thought of this, she panicked in her heart. She naturally believed that her mother-in-law would be good to her, but without a child, she was always at ease.

A-Niang said: "You have been married for two years and have no heirs, and now it will be three years soon, and you will be ridiculed if you say it." Yun Niang, maybe your life is too good, God wants you to have some shortcomings, if you want, why don't I find you an honest one at home that can give birth to you, let's give birth to the child first, and when the time comes, whether male or female, it will be raised under your knees. The child is in your hands, and the concubine room below is naturally obedient, otherwise wait a few more years, and there will be those little goblins who climb into your uncle's bed, what will you do? How do you get your foothold? ”

Mrs. Han wiped her tears when she said this, "Son, don't complain about your mother, you are your mother's old daughter, it's too late to hurt you, it's just that this world is like this, and people's hearts are changeable. ”

The second young lady naturally knew that A-Niang would not harm herself, but the good days were about to change suddenly, she was very reluctant, and even felt aggrieved when she thought about it. But she didn't dare to tell her mother these words, so she had to suffer by herself.

She sighed in her heart, waited for a change of hot clothes, sat by the charcoal fire and said business, and said: "Mother, yesterday my father-in-law and husband came back late, and you had slept with the banquet bell, so I didn't call anyone to wake you up. ”

Li Shi stared, "What's the matter?" Since I knew that Concubine An was going to be sealed, my heart was also hanging. ”

The second young lady: "The husband said that His Majesty left the old ministers to speak yesterday evening, and he talked about the East Palace. Said East Palace...... It's been a long time since I've had a banquet. ”

The feast bell pricked up his ears as soon as he heard Donggong, and then asked in surprise, "So what?" Does Your Majesty want to hold a banquet in the East Palace? ”

The second young lady nodded solemnly, "Yes." ”

In this way, not only the Li clan and the five girls, who grew up in Kyoto, were quite knowledgeable, but even the feast bell reacted: "Your Majesty...... What is this doing, after the seal, the king of Jin is about to become his concubine and hold a banquet, but before that, he wants the prince to hold an East Palace banquet, this is really ......"

Doesn't this make the two fight?

Li Shi took a deep breath, "I used to do some pretense to cover up, but now I don't even cover it, do you know why?" ”

The second young lady whispered: "I heard that it was a dream. ”

Li: "What dream?" ”

Second Young Lady: "I said that I dreamed of the first queen's mother." ”

Li: "...... Scold. ”

The second young lady said helplessly: "Anyway, no matter what it is for, we have to go to the East Palace for a banquet before eating the banquet after the seal." ”

Feast Bell: "Will I go with my fifth sister too?" ”

Second Young Lady: "Naturally, I want to go, there are not many people in our family, and if I don't go, I will be told." ”

The feast bell thought, they are all going to go, and the third brother must go.

She couldn't help but look out the window - I wonder how Mr. would feel when he returned to the East Palace after many years?

It's bound to be sad.

Inevitably, she spent the morning making peach blossom cakes and asked someone to send them to the third brother, so that he could eat better and feel happier.
