Chapter 895 The Banquet of the City Lord's Mansion is Filled with Guests! (3)

Nurse Jin came in at this moment and said: "Master, all the gifts have been prepared, and they are prepared according to the gift list. Master, you don't have to worry about it when the time comes. Even if you leave the table early, the old slave will still stare at Bazi Jiang's gift." Sent."

Qin Hui glanced at it, and there was nothing wrong with it. Apart from the newly developed food, the gift prepared this time also had some specialties from the capital. For the people in the original city, these snacks from the capital are even more attractive.

So Qin Hui ordered: "Mother Jin, this link of gift giving is still very important, so I have to ask two people to wait here for this part, remember to make sure not to send the wrong ones, or if there are too many gifts, please return the gifts." For those who haven’t received it, follow the old method, and everyone who receives the gift can show their family’s badge.”

Madam Jin immediately went to give orders, and soon the third aunt Du's side was also fully prepared. Today's third aunt Du is dressed in an extraordinarily elegant style, with royal blue makeup and Sichuan brocade material, and the embroidery on it is very exquisite. The better face and demeanor set off the extravagance.

The third aunt doesn't like the kind of dress that is so heavy with jewels and emeralds that she can't lift her head, so this time she only wears a red gold hollowed-out auspicious head, and a very fine white jade bracelet on her wrist, which is magnificent. Dignified and not sloppy at all, no matter how you look at it, she is a refreshing lady, and the first impression she leaves on people is very good.

Today, not only the wives of various aristocratic families came here, but even the wives of many official families were invited. As for the gentlemen behind the wives, they are naturally not far behind. How could the Patriarchs of the original city let go of such a good opportunity, naturally they all came with a thick skin.

But if other relatives want to follow, they can't do it. Do you think that the princess's invitation can be given at will, and anyone can come?

Qin Hui, the four girls of the Ye family, did not arrange for them to come out for the time being, and it would not be effective if they came out now, so after the time passed, there was a lot of traffic in front of the city lord's mansion. It is not an exaggeration to describe this scene as full of guests, especially The guests here came quite early, and the third aunt brought the wives from each courtyard to entertain the guests.

Because it has been arranged in advance who will be in charge of which area, so everything is going on in an orderly manner according to the procedure. After seeing this scene, the ladies who came later secretly praised the third lady of the Jing'an Hou Mansion as a really capable person. It's much better than Ma Shi's style of play that only cares about face but doesn't care about it.

Qin Hui was in the upstairs lounge of Juxian Yaju, looking at the scene below and smiled. The third aunt has adapted very well, and now she has chatted well with the wives of various families. Quite a few, it is estimated that the performance will be very lively soon.

Qin Hui asked Xiangzhu to say: "Xiangzhu told the quyi team to start playing first, find some bright tunes to warm up the scene, and make some fun later."

Xiangzhu went down to order, and soon the brisk tunes began to play, the sound outside was quiet for a while, and then continued to be lively, probably because many people thought this method was very new, and began to look at Juxian Yaju.

I heard that Juxian Yaju in the city lord's mansion is specially set up for banquets. There is a well-built stage, opposite the stage, and seats reserved for guests. It is not a problem to accommodate hundreds of people at once. The plum blossoms in Yaju are in full bloom, and the scenery is very pleasant. The fragrance of plum blossoms has already entered the fragrance of tea.

The eldest wife of the He family, that is, the eldest sister-in-law of the He family, also asked curiously: "Second sister, what kind of tea is this, why is it so sweet and sweet, it's so delicious."

Mrs. Qian He Shi is naturally proud, so she replied: "Sister-in-law, this is the idea of ​​our princess, but the cooking of this tea is the recipe of the third lady of Jing'an Houfu, and it has an elegant name, Xiang Meixue tea, it’s too dry in winter, it’s really good to drink some of this tea.”

Hearing sister-in-law's answer, Mrs. He's family also felt that the third wife, Mrs. Du, was so smart that she could make friends with her, so when communicating with Mrs. He, she would occasionally inquire about Mrs. Du's preferences. Mrs. Qian, Mrs. He would have introduced Mrs. Du The meaning of going out, so I spared no effort to introduce some, so that the ladies around me listened very seriously.

The wives who came today probably know that in the future, the third wife of the City Lord's Mansion will probably fall on Mrs. Du. Although Mrs. Du didn't stay in the original city for too much time before, she is a serious third lady of Jing'an Hou's Mansion. Ma'am, she is several times taller than other Ye family's wives, and she is also a fourth-rank official wife, so there is no harm in having a good relationship.

So with such a recommendation from He Shi, the atmosphere on the scene became more heated. Everyone knew what was going on in their hearts, so those who were once familiar with each other gradually became familiar. Discuss the recipe of this fragrant plum snow tea with my third aunt Du Shi.

This is naturally a secret that can be made public, but it is only limited to some people. The eldest lady of the Ma family brought her daughter here today, but it is a pity that she came forward, and the third aunt Du was impatient to pay attention to her, so the eldest daughter of the Ma family When the madam asked for the prescription, the third aunt pretended not to hear.

The eldest lady of the Gu family also asked with deep meaning: "Third lady, I would like to ask, is Mrs. Wan from the Nanpianyuan going to return to the Wan family?"

At this time, the wife of the prefect of Wei, the eldest wife of the Wei family, the congregants of the Ren family and the Qu family, the wives of the Lu family and the Ding family, and of course a dozen or twenty wives who are slowly approaching here You guys are all listening.

Mrs. Du said calmly: "Well, there is such a thing, Hou Ye felt that the old general Wan, the old master of the Wan family, saved the life of the old Hou Ye, and the old Hou Ye thought of this kindness, and kept the Wan family's family. The only seedling is raised as his own child, but now the Wan family has no successors, and the Nanpianyuan family also has this intention. The old Hou himself promised that when the eldest grandson of the Nanpianyuan gets married, he can be in the clan. Witnessing the ceremony of changing the name and surname, this is good for both families, but the Ye family can't flourish and the Wan family has no successors, how can we be worthy of the old general Wan?"

All the wives nodded, thinking that this matter should be handled in this way. After all, Nian was alone in Yewan back then, worried that it would be difficult to survive, so the old Hou Ye recognized him as his adopted son, but now he even The sons are all married, so they can naturally continue the incense of the Wan family. This method is the best. No wonder the stories of these two elders moved many people.

To this day, the story is still continuing, but many wives know that things are not that simple, so naturally they will not ask more questions on this occasion.

On the contrary, Mrs. Ma said unhappily: "Third Madam, why haven't I seen my sister-in-law who has worked so hard? My sister-in-law is used to all aspects of these things today. I am afraid that she has helped the Third Madam a lot. Get busy!"
