Chapter 197: Banquet
As soon as Wang saw Lin, he covered his mouth and chuckled: "I didn't expect my sister-in-law to come so early, I thought you wouldn't come today." ”
Lin was in a bad mood and didn't want to fight with Wang's words, so he walked over to her lightly and greeted the old lady sitting in the seat.
Wang didn't come to make a fuss and was not angry, snorted lightly, and swayed to the brocade stool and sat down.
Who doesn't know that the third lady wanted to rectify Miss Chen yesterday, but was punished by the old lady, what kind of pretending is this Lin family, Wang looked disdainful in his heart.
The old lady didn't see the joy and anger and asked Lin to take a seat, and after Lin sat down, she pretended to be concerned and said: "My daughter-in-law has been busy these days, and I don't have time to ask, I don't know if my mother's illness has been better recently." ”
The old lady shook her head: "It's still the same as before, just a little lighter, it's really old and can't admit defeat." ”
"Otherwise, let my daughter-in-law invite a doctor to come and treat her. Lin said earnestly.
"It's fine. The old lady was dizzy all day long, and she couldn't lift it all over, so she agreed to hear what Lin said.
Not long after the people dispersed, the Lin family brought a doctor, and after the doctor checked the old lady's pulse, it was similar to what the original doctor said, but he re-prescribed the medicine, and a few people in Xiahou were relieved.
......
On this day, Chen Rui deliberately waited for Chen Yue to go back early, and after seeing Chen Yue, Chen Rui asked about the class situation in the past few days, Chen Yue told what happened, and Chen Rui asked, "I don't know how the eldest lady treats you?"
Chen Yue pursed her lips and said, "The eldest lady is fine, but she doesn't bother to talk to me on weekdays, and sometimes treats me like air." ”
"That's good, that's good. Compared with Xiahou Yan, who has a big head and a brainless personality and an arrogant personality, this eldest lady is a powerful character, and she has carried her head several times, Chen Rui is afraid that her sister will go to Xiahou Shuang to make a secret move, listening to Chen Yue say this, she knows in her heart that it must be the eldest lady who doesn't look down on her sister, so she disdains to make a move.
"What's the matter, brother, you don't know at all, the young ladies of Xiahou Mansion are all above the top, and the third lady doesn't take me seriously, she can embarrass me in front of her face, and she doesn't know how to arrange us secretly. Chen Yue said indignantly.
"Well, in any case, she is also your future sister-in-law, even so, you have to be respectful to her and not offend. Chen Rui said.
"Is my brother really going to marry her back? If that's the case, I'm worried that my brother won't be happy. Chen Yue said with concern.
Seeing that his sister seemed to grow up rapidly overnight, Chen Rui sighed in his heart and nodded: "At this point, no matter what kind of person the third lady is, I can only marry her back and provide for her well." ”
Chen Yue couldn't help but feel unhappy for her brother, and said: "If I can marry the emperor's relatives one day, then our family will not have to look at other people's faces." ”
......
Lin prepared for several days and finally arrived on the day of the banquet, twenty tables were opened, and only some people who had a good relationship with each other on weekdays were invited, who knew that the Hou Mansion was preparing to invite everyone to celebrate the Hou Ye being rewarded, and all the mansions came to congratulate after hearing about it, and they came to congratulate them, and the people who did not worship the post quietly put down the gifts and walked away.
The backyard is a lively scene, many ladies have come to the old lady to say beautiful words, the old lady can't close her mouth with joy, can't help nodding in thanks, Zhang Shangshu Mrs. Yu took the lead and said: "The Hou Ye has made great contributions to the court, and the hard work is high. "The Yu family is not satisfied with Xiahou Shuang, but the scene that should come is indispensable.
The wife of Xiahou's family on the other side also nodded with a smile on her face: "The old lady has come to the bitter end this time, and the Hou Ye has made such a great contribution, and we also have a light on our faces." ”
Mrs. Tong Dong asked on the side: "This time Xiahou Gongzi was also entitled, he is really a young hero, so many years have passed in a blink of an eye, and it is time for Xiahou Gongzi to start a family." Dong's question was quite subtle, and now Xiahou Mansion has become a hot mansion, and many ladies are looking at Xiahou Gongzi.
There is an adult lady in the Dong family's mansion, I don't know if I also have thoughts, everyone is secretly speculating in their hearts, but they don't let go of the old lady's reply, they all pricked up their ears and waited for the news.
The old lady smiled slightly: "Yes, the child has grown up in the blink of an eye, and I am also old." ”
The ladies did not hear the answer they wanted to know, they were all disappointed, and they had to speak comfortingly.
The ladies here were very lively, and Zhang Yanchong, who came with him, quietly found the maid in the house and asked the maid to deliver a message to his sister.
After a while, Zhang Yanyu came out behind the maid and saw Zhang Yanchong and asked, "Brother, what are you doing, calling me out in such a hurry?"
Zhang Yanchong dragged her to a hidden place and asked mysteriously, "Have you seen Sister Shuang?"
Zhang Yanyu asked puzzledly: "Sister Shuang is with many young ladies in the backyard, what are you doing?"
Zhang Yanchong said embarrassedly: "Then can you ask Sister Shuang out for a while?" I have something to say to her. ”
When he saw his brother's expression, he suddenly understood, and said softly with a laugh: "Are you enlightened?"
Zhang Yanchong nodded and said, "Mother, I don't know when I will be able to make sense, I can't wait any longer, I have to make it clear to Sister Shuang first." ”
"That's right, let's settle the person now, and I'll help you date her later. Zhang Yanyu nodded in agreement.
The two made an appointment to meet at a certain place, and Zhang Yanchong waited anxiously.
It didn't take long for Zhang Yanyu and Xiahou Shuang to come together, Zhang Yanchong saw Xiahou Shuang, who was getting closer and closer in front, took a deep breath, pressed his heart to hold back the wild beat, and greeted the two.
"Brother Zhang, why are you here?" said Xiahou Shuang in surprise.
This is a rather secluded path in the garden, Zhang Yanyu said that she wanted to see a cold plum in the garden, so the two came together.
"Brother, talk to Sister Shuang, I'll come back later. Zhang Yanyu smiled slyly and quickly dodged away.
At this moment, Xiahou Shuang still didn't understand, this was Zhang Yanyu deliberately attracted herself, and she didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd of the two brothers and sisters.
When the following asked with a smile: "Brother Zhang, I haven't seen you for a long time, do you have something to do with me today?"
Because it was his father's celebration banquet, Xiahou Shuang was wearing a red dress, the fiery red clothes reflected the skin like snow, and it was light and elastic, with a pair of wonderful eyes with a slight smile, looking at Zhang Yanchong intently.
Zhang Yanchong suddenly lost all his courage under these clear eyes.
