Do you know: I am Xu Jiazi

Chapter 361: Yingbin and the Child [Thank you for your support! Goodbye! ]

Liang Han said softly: "Brother Jing, I think Qiao Jiu's love for Yun Niang is a bit crazy."

Xu Zaijing nodded and said, "By the way, Liulang, Jiulang started to like Yunniang when you took me to visit Mother Ruan a few years ago?"

Liang Han didn't know what he recalled. He rubbed his palm on his clothes and said, "No, it was a year earlier than that time."

"How old was Jiulang then?"

"Um, eleven?"

Hearing this, Xu Zaijing shook his head.

Qiao Jiulang has liked Yunniang for so long that he pawned his sword and spent almost all his money to win over Yunniang, the goddess of his dreams.

As a result, within two days, not only was he "abandoned" by the goddess because of the money issue, but the next day he found out that the goddess was being dumped by someone.

"Tsk tsk. Alas! This situation is too cruel for Jiulang."

"Brother Jing is right. Now that it's like this, Qiao Jiu should be awake, right?"

“Liu Lang, if he really wakes up, Jiu Lang won’t go looking for a fight with Lu Sanlang.”

As he spoke, Xu Zaijing shook his head.

At this time, several carriages turned into Quyuan Street.

When they arrived at the gate of the Xu family, the curtain of the leading carriage was opened.

"Brother! Third brother! Sixth brother Liang!"

Lu Zezong was about to jump out of the car, laughing and shouting, and Xu Zaijing hurriedly stepped forward and carried him down.

When Mrs. Li from the Duke Lian's Mansion in the carriage saw Xu Zaijing's actions, she withdrew her hand from Lu Zezong, then smiled and nodded at the Xu brothers and Liang Han, and the carriage entered the Xu family.

In the two carriages behind were the six girls from the Lu family, who also greeted through the curtains.

The number of people welcoming guests at the gate of Marquis Yongyi’s mansion increased to four.

The Lu family's carriage entered the gate.

Lu Zezong at the door looked at the street corner, pointed to a place not far away and shouted: "Brother, there are carriages coming! Whose family is it?"

Xu Zaijing smiled and said, "From my grandparents' house!"

"Oh! The Sun family!"

Xu Zai Zhang and Liang Han on the side squinted their eyes and looked carefully, and saw cars and horses in their field of vision.

A moment later, a row of horse-drawn carriages drove over, and there were seven or eight teenagers riding horses beside them.
Not far away, I could hear the chattering of children coming from the leading carriage.

When they got closer, a woman who was much older than Sun lifted the curtain of the carriage.

"Auntie!"

"Aunt~"

Xu Zaijing and Zai Zhang bowed and called out to everyone, and Lu Zezong followed suit.

The seven or eight young men from the Sun family who dismounted from their horses also called him uncle.

The eldest daughter-in-law of the Sun family looked at Lu Zezong at the door with a smile. Before she could say anything, the grandchildren around her started chattering and calling out "third uncle, fifth uncle, little uncle, Uncle Liang".

Xu Zaijing, Zai Zhang and Liang Han all smiled and nodded.

Lu Zezong smiled and scratched his head in embarrassment. At his age, it was rare for him to meet so many people calling him "cousin".

In the second carriage of the Sun family was the second aunt who was the grandmother of the Xu brothers. The situation was similar. The grandchildren in the carriage were chattering and calling their cousin uncle.

Carriages and horses entered in a stream,

The last few cars were those of Xu Zaijing's cousins-in-law.

Several married cousins ​​from the Sun family rode in a carriage with my sixth aunt who married into the Fang family. They were all married girls from the Sun family.

Lu Zezong and Liang Han looked back and saw the young men of the Sun family being invited to the men's courtyard at the second gate of the Xu family, as well as the huge group of Sun family relatives getting off the car. They were stunned.

Xu Zaijing and his brother were already used to it and continued looking at the street corner.

A carriage turned in, and Xu Zaijing whispered, "From the Hai family."

"There's no one riding a horse nearby, so those who came should be women," Liang Han said.

When the Hai family's carriage arrived at the gate, just as Liang Han said, sitting in the carriage were the Hai family's eldest lady, the married Hai Zhaoxia, and the unmarried Hai Chaoyun.

In the past, the Hai family would never come to the Yongyi Marquis's Mansion.

However, Xu Zaijing had saved Hai Chaoyun before, and the master of the Hai family not only cooperated with Yongyi Hou in both civil and military affairs in the north, but was also Gu Tingyu's master, so he had to come to express his gratitude.

Xu Zaijing and his companions bowed and called for help.

In the carriage, Hai Zhaoxia pulled a corner of the curtain, turned her head and looked at Xu Zaijing who was standing at the gate of Xu's house.

Hai Zhaoxia nodded approvingly while lowering the curtain. She looked at her mother in the carriage with interest, and then glanced at her younger sister Hai Chaoyun.

Seeing her mother shaking her head gently, Hai Zhaoxia sighed with some regret.

"Aunt, cousin."

Looking at the relatives of the Zhu family in the carriage, Xu Zaijing and others called for help.

Zhu Xu, with a rosy complexion, smiled and nodded with her daughter-in-law Ni Qi Qiu.

Subsequently,

After watching the Xie family's carriage enter the gate,
Turning his head to look at Gu Tingye who was riding a horse beside the carriage on Quyuan Street, Zai Zhang smiled and said, "Xiao Wu, the Gu family's carriage."

after awhile,

Gu Tingye came closer, dismounted, gave the reins to Zhique, stood next to Xu Zaijing, and talked to Liang Han.

The Gu family carriage also stopped at the gate.

The exquisite car door curtain was lifted, and the people at the door hurriedly bowed and greeted Mrs. Bai and others.

Gu Shixing, who was in Mrs. Bai's arms, called him "uncle" several times during the conversation.

After the return of the gift,
Pingmei, who was becoming more and more beautiful, looked at her two younger brothers at the door, nodded to Lu Zezong with a smile, and asked, "Have the aunts from my maternal grandparents arrived?"

"Sister, I've been in there for a while."

Zai Zhang replied.

In early May, before the Dragon Boat Festival, the eldest sister Pingmei's daughter had just turned one month old, and the siblings had just met not long ago.

"Where's An-mei?"

Zai Zhang said, "My little sister probably won't come."

Pingmei said, "That's hard to say! You guys continue to welcome the guests and smile more. Your brother-in-law will come over after he finishes his court."

"Yes, sister/sister-in-law."

Pingmei smiled and lowered the curtain.

When the two sons of the old Marquis of Xiangyang celebrated their full month, Madam Sun also went there.

So, Princess Pingning also came to the Xu family today.

Also traveling with them were Mrs. Chai and Chai Zhengzheng, who were sitting in another carriage. They had gone to Gu's house together in this way a few days ago, so they were familiar with the route.

"Brother Heng, your classmates are all at the door, go down and keep them company."

"Yes, mother."

Qi Heng got off the carriage, greeted Xu Zaijing and others with a smile, then turned around and looked at the Chai family carriage behind them.

Mrs. Chai lifted the car curtain, smiled and nodded to Xu Zaijing and a few others. Beside Mrs. Chai, Chai Zhengzheng, who had a red flower ornament between his eyebrows, smiled faintly.

After watching the carriages of Qi and Chai families enter the gate,

Liang Han said, "Brother Jing, at the beginning of the month, Concubine Rong asked Miss Feiyan to send a gift to Brother Ye's family on her behalf. I wonder if she will come today."

Gu Tingye looked towards the street corner and said hesitantly, "Liu Lang, are you talking nonsense? Look, that carriage coming over here looks like the Rong family's!"

Liang Han looked over but couldn't see clearly. He looked at Xu Zaijing for help: "Jing'er? Really?"

Xu Zaijing looked at the female official who got out of the carriage and stood beside it, and said, "Yes."

After a while, an exquisite carriage came over. A palace lady looked at the people bowing at the door and said,

"Greetings, brothers."

"Miss Feiyan congratulates Zhang'er on the birth of his precious son on behalf of Concubine Rong."

Zai Zhang hurriedly bowed: "Thank you, Empress Rong! Please come in."

The female official returned the greeting.

Watching the Rong family's carriage driving towards the second gate, Liang Han, Qi Heng and Gu Tingye all sighed with regret.

Gu Tingye said: "It sounds like the Rong family's eldest lady didn't follow, so Miss Feiyan wouldn't lift the carriage curtain."

"That's what Second Uncle said."

While they were talking, another carriage drove over.

In the spacious carriage, a woman wearing pearls and jade jewelry lifted the door curtain facing the crowd.

The other three people in the carriage were revealed.

"Meet Madam Pan, and meet my two sisters-in-law."

The women from the fifth branch of the Huyan family smiled and nodded.

After bowing and saying this, Zai Zhang smiled as he looked at An Mei, who was in the carriage with her hands on her belly, pursed her lips, and had her eyes elsewhere.

The curtains were lowered.

Zai Zhang put away his smile and frowned slightly, nodding to Ye'er, An Mei's personal maid who was following beside the car.

When Ye'er saw Zai Zhang's actions, she lowered her head in embarrassment.

At the second gate of Xu's family,
After getting off the carriage and talking to Madam Sun for a few words, Princess Pingning walked towards the inner courtyard with Madam Chai and Chai Zhengzheng.

On the way, Princess Pingning waved her round fan, smiled softly, and said to Madam Chai: "Sister, the Xu family is very lively today." "Why does the princess say that?"

Princess Pingning said, "Because most of Madam Sun's sisters-in-law will be here today."

Chai Zhengzheng and Madam Chai looked at each other curiously and said, "Didn't you go to Gu's house a few days ago?"

Princess Pingning shook her head and said, "It's still a little different. We'll know if we go forward."

As the three of them were talking, they continued walking along the corridor towards the inner courtyard, followed by the maid holding gifts.

Before they entered the inner courtyard, the three heard the chattering, laughing and crying of children in the yard.

Go down the corridor and turn into the inner courtyard.

In the three people's field of vision, there was a yard full of children running around, and the sounds of laughter and playfulness were endless.

There were a dozen women in the middle. When they saw Xie, who was pregnant, and Hualan coming to greet Princess Pingning and her entourage, they hurriedly shouted for the children to keep an eye on her.

Looking at the children in the yard, Chai Zhengzheng was dumbfounded, while Mrs. Chai exclaimed, "Oh my God!"

The children's attention was also attracted by Xie and Hualan.

Several children, both boys and girls, standing near the inner courtyard gate stared blankly at Chai Zhengzheng standing next to Madam Chai.

"Sister, you are so beautiful!"

A little girl said this with a sigh, and the other children nearby nodded.

Hearing this, Xie and Hualan both laughed. Hualan bowed and said, "Greetings to the Princess, Madam Chai, and Miss Zhengzheng."

Princess Pingning and Madam Chai smiled, and Zheng Zheng saluted in return.

Seeing Chai Zhengzheng's gaze towards the little girl who had just praised her, Xie, who had been the daughter-in-law of the Xu family for a long time, said, "That is the granddaughter of my eighth uncle, and the second daughter of my seventeenth cousin."

After hearing what Mrs. Xie said, the little girl nodded, giggled, waved her hand, and continued to play.

"My Lady, Madam, Miss Zhengzheng, please come in."

Hua Lan said with a smile.

Then everyone passed through the 'group of children' and came to the main room.

The relatives who had arrived earlier than them, such as Mrs. Bai, Mrs. Li, Pingmei, etc., also hurriedly stood up to greet them.

Everyone sat down, listened to the noise of the children in the yard, drank tea and chatted.

When they sat down, the ladies naturally sat together, Gu Tingyi, Chai Zhengzheng, the daughter of the Lu family and other girls were together.

The girls were discussing the children in the yard, all shaking their heads.

After talking for a while, a few children from the Sun family ran in. After looking around the hall, one of them shouted, "Another beautiful sister is here!"

Afterwards, some of them couldn't stand the attention of the ladies and girls, so they turned around and fled out of the main hall, causing the ladies and girls to laugh.

Xie and Hua Lan looked outside, stood up and said, "It's Miss Rong who's here!"

In the courtyard, the palace ladies who followed were as surprised and stunned as Rong Feiyan.

Listening to the children's childish words, "Sister, you are so beautiful! Sister, you smell so good!", Rong Feiyan, who had never seen such a scene before, walked over to Xie and Hualan as if she had found a savior.

On the bustling streets of Bianjing,

A team of several carriages was moving.

In the leading carriage,

Wang Ruoyu stroked her clothes and said, "Sister, you have a stern face and have been angry all the way. What's wrong?"

Wang Ruofu frowned and pouted, "Sister, just bring Yun'er and Yuan'er with you! What are those concubines from the Kang family doing here?"

Wang Ruoyu glared and said, "What's wrong? Their cousin gave birth to a son for the Marquis's Mansion, can't they come and see him?"

Wang Ruofu exhaled and said, "That's fine, but you have to dress them better! They look like maids, others will laugh at them!"

Wang Ruoyu said bitterly: "You eat my food, use my things, and you will have to spend my money when you get married. Humph, you are all money-losing goods! And you still want to dress well? You wish!"

Looking at his sister, Wang Ruoyu continued, "Look at your two concubines. They are dressed better than my daughter. You, you are so stupid!"

Wang Ruofu was about to speak but stopped.

"Madam, sit tight. We are about to turn into Quyuan Street."

Mother Liu's voice came from outside the car.

At the gate of Xu's house,
The curtains of a carriage led by the Sheng family were lifted.

"Hello, mother-in-law, aunt!" Zai Zhang bowed.

Xu Zaijing and others mostly call her aunt or madam.

The two ladies in the car nodded with smiles on their faces, showing no sign of any unpleasantness that had just occurred in the car.

Especially Wang Ruofu, the look in her eyes when she looked at Zai Zhang was as if she wanted to print the words "good son-in-law" on Zai Zhang's forehead.

"Are all the relatives here?"

"Mother-in-law, we are all here!"

"Okay, okay, we'll go in right away!"

After lowering the carriage curtain, Changbai, Changfeng, and Kang Jin, who were riding horses beside them, had already dismounted. Changbai extended his hand to a young man beside him and said, "Hey guys, this is my cousin, Kang Jin. I've met him before."

Kang Jin, the eldest son of the Kang family, bowed and said, "Meet my brothers."

Everyone nodded their heads.

Zai Zhang extended his hand and introduced:
"Brother Jin, this is Brother Zong, the eldest grandson of Duke Lian."

"Meet the younger brother of the Lu family."

In the second carriage,
Sixteen-year-old Kang Yuner sat in the middle, with her younger sister Kang Yuaner and cousin Sheng Rulan sitting on both sides.

At this time, Kang Yuaner and Rulan were having some conflicts. They were both angry and looked away.

After hearing Zai Zhang's voice, Ru Lan smiled, opened the curtains, and shouted proudly: "Brother-in-law! Cousin Jing! Cousin Ye! Brother Yuanruo! Brother Zong!"

After waiting for the people outside the car to respond, Rulan lowered the curtain and glared at Kang Yuaner with pride: "Keep competing! Didn't you say how powerful your Kang family is? Keep going!"

Kang Yuaner: "Me!"

Rulan: “Hmph!”

As the eldest sister, Kang Yuner looked at them helplessly.

In the third carriage,

Molan, with a reluctant look on her face, squeezed in the middle with Kang Nier, who was dressed very nicely.

The mothers of the two girls were both favored concubines in the Sheng and Kang families. They both inherited their mothers' genes and now look like beauties.

On one side is Minglan, and opposite Minglan are Kang Zhaoer and Kang Douer, whose clothes are not even as nice as Xiaotao's.

After hearing Rulan's voice in front, Kang Nier stood up, pushed her two sisters aside, and looked outside the car.

Seeing the noble men outside, he quickly started laughing.

Xu Zaijing and the others were a little confused by their laughter, and Kang Jin's face looked a little ugly.

Sitting outside the carriage were Minglan and Molan's four maids, who had already gotten off the car when they reached the door.

After the Sheng family's carriage entered,

Sheng Hong, who had just left the court, took a carriage, and Gu Tingyu, who was riding a horse, also arrived.

Afterwards, with Xu Zaijing and others greeting each other, everyone entered the Xu family's gate together.

When they arrived at the second gate together, Gu Tingye was stunned when he saw Kang Zhaoer following behind Kang Wangshi, and finally smiled.

"Ji Lang, what are you laughing at?"

Liang Han on the side asked curiously.

Gu Tingye leaned close to Liang Han's ear and whispered, "Before, Madam Wu held a flower viewing party at the polo field. This girl was beaten by her sister, and then she took the opportunity to hide a plate of cakes."

Xu Zaijing, who was walking in front, looked back at the two and whispered, "This matter is not good for the girl, don't spread it."

"Brother Jing, did you see it that day too?" Gu Tingye asked.

Xu Zaijing nodded: "Remember what I said."

"Do not worry!"

Today is the full moon banquet, and there are tables for men's guests, women's guests, and quite a few tables for children.

The men are in the front yard and the women are in the back yard.

At this time, the Xu family's kitchen was extremely busy, filled with the aroma of various dishes and the sounds of chefs shouting.

At the little gate between the kitchen yard and the inner court,
There were a dozen maids standing there and talking, among them were the sisters Qingcao and Huaxiang, and next to the three of them were Qingzhi and Qingxia who were beside Pingmei, and not far away from the five of them was the tall Huaqing.

At this time, the magpie beside Xiaotao and Rulan came over.

After seeing Qingcao and Huaxiang as sisters, they hurried over here.

Qingcao touched Xiaotao's face and said to Xique with a smile, "Look, this tall girl is Brother Qingyun's wife, Sister Huaqing."

Hearing this, Xiaotao and Xique looked over immediately and said, "Sister, you are so tall!"

Hua Qing smiled slightly.

At this time, Dan's mother came over and shouted, "Okay, girls, stop chatting, we need to start serving food!"

After a lot of work,

In the afternoon, Hualan's son was brought to the main hall.

In the presence of the ladies, the boy was put into a basin of warm water, with gold coins and dates sprinkled in the basin.

Wang Ruofu and Madam Sun stirred the water in the silver basin and threw in some dates, some of which stood upright.

Aunt Xu Zaijing, who was standing by, hurried over, fished out the dates, and handed them to the married, childless women around them.

Hua Qing and Ni Qi Qiu both received three
