Chapter 329
When we arrived, most of the guests had already sat down.
The two seats in the middle were still vacant, and there were no figures of Mrs. Xiao and Princess Fukang, so Su Junning guessed that those seats should be reserved for them.
He Yuhan said a few words to the steward in charge of the scene, then smiled and led Yan Shi and Su Junning to the table.
The seats are arranged in a concave shape, the position of the eldest princess and Xiao Shi is in the middle, and the positions of the two are also very close, which can be regarded as honorable positions.
After Su Junning walked over, she realized that Mrs. Xie's seat was next to Mrs. Yan's.
It's not surprising, after all, Mrs. Xie is still the honorable Mrs. Ruiguo, she can sit in this position.
With Xiao's absence, even though He Yuhan was married, as the eldest daughter of the He family, she could still hold on to the scene, and arranged for the servants to take down some playbooks for the guests to choose.
Of course, only some people have the honor of being able to play, and Yan Shi and Su Junning got the booklet.
Yan Shi circled one she liked, and she wanted to pass it to Su Junning, but Su Junning didn't like these, so Yan Shi circled another one.
When the booklet was handed back to He Yuhan, when she was about to tell the troupe to get ready, she glanced over it, and suddenly her expression changed.
Immediately afterwards, the little maid who handed over the paperwork nervously whispered a few words in her ear.
He Yuhan frowned, took the booklet, and walked towards Xie with a smile.
"Mrs. Xu, I'm really sorry. Just now I asked the troupe about the play you ordered, and said that I didn't prepare it today. I'm afraid I won't be able to perform it. Why don't you change it? I heard from others that this lock blue Your heart is also what you usually like, but you have it."
Xie took a sip of tea, and gave her a slight sideways glance.
"Is that so? It's just a coincidence. I thought that any theater troupe in Beijing would be able to sing such a simple play as "The Misfortune of Beauty". I didn't expect such a simple play to exist?"
When she said this, her voice was not too loud, but it was just enough for Yan Shi and Su Junning who were sitting next to her to hear.
For a moment, both mother-in-law and daughter-in-law frowned.
Because the content of the song "Beauty's Disaster" is that the merchant's daughter donated money to help the man when he was down, the man was grateful, and the two became husband and wife. She took bribes behind her husband's back, did all kinds of scandals, and even forced her son to marry her niece from her natal family. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law teamed up to ruin the man's family business, and both ended up being divorced.
This kind of gossip and trivial drama is similar to those family ethics dramas of later generations, and it is still very popular among women, but it is also very famous.
It's just that among the guests present today, the Yan family is the daughter of a merchant, and she married Shen He from the poor to the rich, and happened to come to the banquet with Su Junning, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Listening to this play, it is somewhat insinuating.
No wonder He Yuhan's complexion is not good, isn't this a blatant provocation.
"Madam Xu, don't blame me. It's my mother's birthday party today, and they have prepared some festive plays. It's true that the theater troupe didn't prepare this."
Due to her status and occasion, He Yuhan still persuaded her in a good voice.
Mrs. Xie snorted softly, glanced at Mrs. Yan next to her, and said calmly.
"It's not necessary to prepare such a simple play in advance, or if you ask me to make a play, I write it, but you don't want to act it. If you don't welcome me, why bother to invite me?"
Seeing her like this, He Yuhan's eyes were slightly annoyed.
Because Mr. Xie didn't punctuate the play on the playbook, but wrote it himself.
That's right, since the county government is going to hold a banquet, how can it make such a mistake? Even if they are asked to order a play, it is to let the guests choose from the prepared plays.
Xie's move has indeed broken the rules.
He Yuhan suppressed her annoyance, and was about to send someone to ask her mother to come and deal with it, when she heard Su Junning's voice next to her.
"Miss He, I remember that the song "The Misfortune of Beauty" is not on the playbook, so is it possible to order something else?"
After a pause, his eyes swept across Xie's face, and he continued.
"Then I have a play to think about, please ask the troupe for me, can this "Falling in the Gold Cup" be sung?"
As soon as the name was uttered, Xie's face darkened by three points.
It's not for anything else, because Su Junning's move is to deal with his body in his own way.
"Falling in the Gold Bottle" tells the story of the royal relatives who continue to commit suicide, and finally end up with a tragic end.
But it is not much different from the current Ruiguo government.
It's just that when Su Junning asked such a question, He Yuhan was caught in the middle and it was even more difficult to do.
Of course, she just wanted to warn and mock Xie Shi, and didn't want to disturb the He family's banquet and make it difficult for He Yuhan, so Yan Shi immediately stood up.
Pretending to be reprimanded, he frowned and shouted.
"Ning'er, I don't understand the rules anymore. Although you say that the host can do whatever you want, you are still being polite. You are not young, why are you still as ignorant as a child? How can you embarrass the host? Hurry up and apologize to Miss He, lest When the eldest princess and the princess' wife arrive later, they feel more and more that our Shen family is the same as that family with no rules."
Su Junning stopped training, immediately lowered her head, and gave He Yuhan an embarrassed smile.
"I'm really sorry, Missy, please don't blame me, I was the one to be rude."
A few people here sang a show first, and the distance between the seats is not far, so naturally everyone has already paid attention.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Yan Shi's words just now seem to be scolding his daughter-in-law, but they are actually for Xie Shi.
Mrs. Xie is not stupid, how could he not hear it.
In fact, she didn't intend to really make things difficult for He Yuhan at first, after all, there is still the eldest princess in the county mansion, she just wanted to take the opportunity to speak and make Yan and Su Junning uncomfortable.
But I didn't expect Su Junning to be so sharp-tongued. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law teamed up to embarrass her.
Now everyone at the banquet looked at her with a bit of sarcasm and contempt, which made her feel angry, but she couldn't express it.
At this juncture, Xiao Shi finally arrived at the scene with his mother-in-law, Princess Fukang.
For a moment, everyone put away their thoughts, stopped talking, got up and saluted, and greeted the eldest princess.
He Yuhan immediately went to greet her, and before leaving, she gave Su Junning a grateful smile.
Just now she could see that although Su Junning was avenging her own personal grievances, she also took her dignity into consideration.
Su Junning nodded slightly, and hooked the corners of her lips at her.
In the end, the two unsuitable plays were of course not on stage, and Princess Fukang and Xiao Shi, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law did not go to the theater much, and spent most of their time talking with Yan Shi and Su Junning.
Of course, there is another newcomer who wants to get close to Su Junning, and that is He Yushu, the third young lady from the county government.
Compared with He Yuhan, this third lady is more lively, but Su Junning is a little puzzled when she suddenly comes up to make friends with him.
After all, there is nothing good about me that this third lady can reap.
He Yuhan made friends with her in order to seek a future for her husband, so He Yuhan had just reached the age of Ji and was not married yet.
