Chen Rui's mother and son were very grateful, and Xiahou Zhong ordered a banquet to be held, leaving a few people to eat.

The banquet opened two tables, and Xiahou Zhong instructed the maid to invite the eldest lady as well, as for Xiahou Yan, it was okay, such a stubborn temper, even if he was invited, he was afraid of making a fuss.

Xiahou Shuang and Lin sat at a table with Zhang's mother and daughter, Chen Yue looked at Xiahou Shuang enviously, a trace of amazement flashed in her eyes, today's Xiahou Shuang was wearing a red dress, the skin looked as delicate as snow under the red clothes, and she was wearing a jade headdress that was valuable at a glance, and she was wearing a jade bracelet of the same color on her wrist, and her gestures jingled.

Chen Yue looked at Xiahou Shuang, who was like Haoyue, and then looked at herself, wearing the only splendid pair of padded jackets, unspeakably shabby, and a trace of jealousy welled up in her heart, how good it would be if she was also the young lady of this Hou Mansion, even if she couldn't be a young lady, it would be good to marry into the Hou Mansion, thinking of this, her heart became lively, and she mustered up the courage to ask: "Why didn't you see the brother that day?"

As soon as these words came out, the Lin family glanced at it lightly, and Chen Yue felt speechless, there was a girl who casually asked about a man's whereabouts, but the words had already been spoken, and there was no reason to take it back at the time.

Xiahou Shuang cast a smile and said: "What Miss Chen said is my second brother, the second brother has gone to the post with the newlywed sister-in-law, and now she is not in the mansion, Miss Chen is going to be disappointed, and I won't see it this time." ”

Xiahou Shuang looked at the mood of her mother-in-law and sister-in-law in her previous life, and she endured her disgust so that she didn't lose her temper, and when she saw Chen Yue ask this stupid sentence, she snorted coldly in her heart, she really didn't change her life, she still wanted to portrait her second brother, and she didn't want to see if she was worthy!

Hearing this, Chen Yue was embarrassed and wanted to go underground, and all her courage was directly deflated like a poked ball in Xiahou Shuang's mockery.

At this moment, a nice man's voice came, and he only heard: "The child has an accident and is a little late here, pay off the father's forgiveness." ”

It turned out that Xiahou Xuan had arrived, Xiahou Zhong looked at Xiahou Xuan with a hint of pampering on his face, nodded and said, "Sit down." ”

At this time, Chen Rui got up and saluted and said, "Meet Xiahou Gongzi, Xiaosheng is so polite again." ”

Xiahou Xuan nodded casually, presumably this is the future husband of the third sister, Xiahou Xuan does not have much affection for Xiahou Yan, and he does not care too much about Chen Rui.

Chen Rui couldn't help but secretly glance at the future eldest brother, only to see that he was looking up at Xiahou Zhong with a look of admiration and talking brightly, it turned out that he was less than twenty years old, and he had already made great achievements on the battlefield, and he was personally named by His Majesty, the heir of the next Hou Ye, so many halos shrouded in this young man, and the pride of heaven was nothing more than that.

Chen Rui has admiration and unspeakable deep jealousy in his heart, some people are born with a good life, and he can only climb up little by little, and he will definitely go to the top of power one day, and then he doesn't have to look at anyone's eyes to act, Chen Rui secretly swore in his heart.

Xiahouzhong put down the chopsticks in his hand, Chen Rui quickly stopped when he saw this, and Xiahouzhong asked, "I don't know if the food is appetizing." ”

Chen Rui replied respectfully: "It's very close." ”

Xiahou was born rough, and several boys in the house were also very arrogant, and when he saw Chen Rui being cautious in dealing with the world, he also felt interesting in his heart, and saw that he was respectful everywhere, and couldn't help but nod secretly, and recognized this son-in-law.

Then he said: "Be a good errand, I have been in the capital during this time, if you have time, you can come to the house to talk." ”

When Chen Rui heard this, he was happy in his heart, this is not treating himself as an outsider, and nodded again and again and said yes.

The ladies here also had dinner, and the Zhang family saw that more than half of the wine and meat on the table were left, and secretly felt pity in their mouths, but the Lin family looked at themselves with an unkind face on the side, and the Zhang family didn't dare to make a mistake, so he had to get up and say goodbye.

Xiahou Shuang moved out with everyone, and Xiahou Zhong took Xiahou Xuan to get up and send him off.

Xiahou Xuan walked up to Xiahou Shuang and whispered: "Sister, I went out today and saw an interesting thing, I specially bought it for you to see, and I will go back to your yard to take a look later." Ignoring the Lin family and the Zhang family around him.

Zhang Shi asked when he saw it, "This is the eldest prince?"

The Lin family looked down on Chen Rui's family, and when they saw Zhang's question, they had to let out a soft hum from their noses, and Zhang's heart secretly said that he was really worthy of being the son of the Hou Mansion, he was so good-looking, the young lady was delicate and lovely, and even the son was extremely handsome.

At the thought that his son would become the son-in-law of the Hou Mansion in the near future, he suddenly raised his head and became proud.

The group walked to the gate, Chen Yue couldn't help but quietly turned around and secretly glanced at the eldest son, this eldest prince was even more handsome than the last son, I heard that he had just returned from the border pass and had not yet married a wife, thinking of this, Chen Yue couldn't help but blush, lowered his head and hurriedly got into the carriage with Zhang.

The family sat in the car and thought about it, and after a while, Zhang couldn't help but ask, "Son, are you still counting your marriage?"

Chen Rui glanced at Zhang's unhappily: "What my mother said is naturally counted, is it possible to change the golden mouth opened by the Hou Ye and the old lady?"

"That's good, that's good. Zhang replied happily.

"Mother, I don't want to go to school, can I not go?" said Chen Cong in the corner.

"You killer of a thousand knives, you don't know that such a good opportunity can't be found with a lantern, if you don't go, you won't go!" When Zhang heard Xiao'er's words, he scolded and couldn't help but slap his hands.

"Okay, okay, I'm just talking, what are you doing!" Chen Cong, who curled up and dodged Zhang's palm, said impatiently.

"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, if you two go, you can have a good relationship with the young lady and young master in the mansion, as long as you climb the high branches of the Hou Mansion, you will have to enjoy the glory and wealth that is not enough in the future. Chen Rui said solemnly.

Thinking more than the grumpy Zhang, Chen Cong was more afraid of his brother, and nodded busily.

Chen Yue is old and understands things, not to mention that the young master of the Hou Mansion is such a bright piece of fat, Zhang Yue can't wait to paste it himself, and nodded without thinking,

After everyone left, Xiahou Zhong came to Yanhe Hall to report to the old lady about today's situation, and after listening to him, he wanted to take Chen Yue and Chen Cong, two brothers and sisters, to the mansion to study.

The old lady nodded and said: "That's also good, the third girl is not satisfied with this family affair, and she doesn't spit out to agree, if she has more contact with the little girl of the Chen family, maybe she will change her mind after getting acquainted." ”

"As for the kid of the Chen family, it's good to be a companion to Bo'er, Bo'er is too rigid, and it's good to have someone to amuse together. Xiahou Zhong saw that the old lady agreed, and the matter was decided.

It didn't take much for Xiahou Shuang to hear about his father's arrangement, Xiahou Shuang smiled coldly, his father really didn't know the details of this family, all of them were man-eating vampires, and he was bent on how to get a handful of benefits, his father was kind but the third sister was unlikely to appreciate it.
