Poor family mother and son

Chapter 952 "Welcome!"

Chu Yuan naturally knew that Xiaobao was much more mature than his mother's impression, but he didn't realize that Xiaobao understood his semi-cryptic question.

It is estimated that Qiao Wanqi, the bag thief, would not be surprised if he was here, because he had reported to Xiaobao in detail about the indescribable past of a certain Zhang Yushi in Kyoto and the lotus girls.

"Is your mother angry?" Chu Yuan asked: "Your mother can bear anything, but she can't bear someone bullying her son."

Xiaobao said worryingly: "Mother is afraid that she will offend many people again, she didn't say what she was going to do, and even teased me in the letter, but the more calm Mother is, the more suffocated she is;
Can we go faster, I'm afraid my mother will cause trouble. "

Chu Yuan stretched out his hand to test the wind, and then said: "Look for yourself, it's not too windy! But don't worry, look at the clouds, the wind will blow up in the afternoon, then we will be there soon."

No matter how anxious Xiaobao is, it's useless, Chu Qing doesn't waste time at all.

The third day after the invitation was issued was the official day of the seafood feast.

The timing is a little tricky.

As the saying goes: Three days are for invitation, two days are for calling, and one day is for mentioning.

That is to say, if you treat guests, you should notify others at least three days in advance, this is "inviting" people to the banquet.

If Chu Qing really wanted to invite guests, he would have to issue invitations at least three days in advance, but now, on the third day after the invitations were issued, that is, only two days in advance, it was "calling", calling people to come to the banquet.

Three days in advance can show the host's respect for the guests.

At the same time, for the guests, knowing the banquet in advance can also make corresponding preparations in advance.For example, arrange your own itinerary on the day of the banquet in advance, so as not to let other things conflict with the banquet.

Compared with "please", the person who is "called" usually only plays a supporting role, which means that the host does not value it very much.

It's just that the people who got the invitation thought that there was someone more important than themselves, and that they might have come to accompany the wine. Although they were unwilling, they also wanted to see who the Marquis of Linyang was inviting.

They guessed that the most likely person was the magistrate. After all, in the Ganzhou government, the most important official position was the magistrate.

However, maybe it was Mr. Huang who returned home to visit his relatives?I heard that the old man was acquainted with Marquis Linyang.

Although people speculate in their hearts, they also bring girls who are not very important in the family. It is one thing to come to the door to say goodbye, but if you have the opportunity to show the girl to Linyanghou, maybe there will be a surprise?

For example, the son's wife and concubines are all from his own family, doesn't that mean they account for a larger proportion of the population of the Hou Mansion?

Then Linyang Hou only has two mothers and sons, and he married two more, and later gave birth to a child. Doesn't it mean that most of Linyang Hou's family property is his own?
If Marquis Linyang was short-lived and died in three to five or seven years, then he would be left alone with no one to rely on, and could only rely on his wife and family. Wouldn't that be the same as his own son-in-law?

Thinking about it this way, people felt less dissatisfied with the invitation only two days in advance.

They don't even dislike the desolation of the road from the city to the sea, and they are still in the mood to teach their daughter to feel a sense of presence in front of Linyanghou——

"Marquis Linyang is a widow. Widows have very weird tempers. You must not talk back to her."

"I heard that Marquis Linyang was born as a village woman and has no education. If she speaks vulgarly, you have to hold back, and don't let her see that you look down on her."

"The housekeeper said that Marquis Linyang is tall and ugly, and our daughter is so beautiful, so don't be jealous of her. Daughter, try to restrain yourself, do you hear me?"

"I heard that her son is quite promising. He seems to have won the fame of a scholar at a young age. Daughter, try to find opportunities to get in touch with him, but not for too long, do you hear me?"

Only the county magistrate and his wife in Huai'en County have actually seen Chu Qing, and they advised their daughter to be more careful, even if they look down on Lin Yanghou, don't show off their knowledge in front of her, because they feel that Lin Yanghou is not like an ignorant person Village woman.

If you are really ignorant, you can't be made a Marquis even if you are lucky, otherwise, what kind of blind emperor will you be?

All guesses and designs will be invalidated the moment they arrive at the banquet venue.

There are leading seats for male guests and female guests at the two entrances, and a guideline: "Every table has a nameplate, please take your own seats."

"What does it mean?"

"Marquis Linyang looks down on us?"

"Is this how your Marquis mansion treats guests?"

"It's really an ignorant village woman who doesn't know etiquette..."

Voices of scolding and disdain sounded from the entrances on both sides, the voices were neither loud nor small, as if they were afraid that Marquis Linyang would hear them, but they were also afraid that others would not hear them.

All of a sudden, they shouted loudly: "Welcome!" From the other side of the table, people noticed that there was a group of young men in red clothes and black collar guards standing there at some time.

The big flower umbrella on the side of the main table can't cover these guards. They are exposed to the sun, they are of the same height, tall and straight, and full of energy.

Like the chefs who are already in place, they look forward, put their hands behind their backs, and keep their feet shoulder-width apart.

The difference is that their uniforms are all half-sleeved, and their tight forearms are exposed, as hard as cast iron, and they all carry a shiny iron rod on their backs.

The "Welcome" just now was uttered by them, and combined with the shape standing like a diamond at the moment, it immediately quieted down the guest entrances on both sides.

Chu Qing walked slowly from behind the guards to the front. Her ponytail was hung high, thick and smooth, and she had a strand of white hair on each temple, which went straight to where the ponytail was tied.

A pair of phoenix eyes are hidden behind two large black lenses, the lenses are so big that they almost cover half of the face.

This pair of sunglasses is much better than the pair given to Shui Maomao, the lenses are dark blue, and the eyes are more comfortable.

"Everyone, this banquet is in the form of self-help. Please take your seats. If you don't agree, please leave!" Chu Qing said without taking off his sunglasses.

Sunglasses are like hats, as long as you are polite, you should take them off as soon as possible, but you clearly want to express your disdain, so you keep wearing them.

The sun is too bright, why bother the eyes?
but--

"Mother, is that Linyang Hou? Why is she covering her eyes? Is she blind?"

"Daughter, be careful! Why are you talking so rudely? Can you say you are blind? Say you are blind!"

"Oh, mother, my daughter knows."

"Hey, Master Li, you're here too? Have you seen Marquis Linyang? Why do I think she has a problem with her eyes? I haven't heard of it!"

"Who knows? It's weird, it's a sensationalist!"

Chu Qing: "..."

Is this playing the piano to a donkey?
However, these people finally realized what they said clearly—please leave?
What's the meaning?Marquis Linyang heard their dissatisfaction just now?
Whether love comes or not, get out if you don't come, is that what you mean?

How dare Lin Yanghou?
Everyone, especially the male guests, collectively fixed their eyes on Marquis Linyang, as if they wanted to ask "How dare you", but immediately, the guards said: "It's better to leave!"

The crowd froze immediately!
People just dare!
