Chapter 264 The rest of my life is full of joy (3)
He only told the two of them that they would know when they saw their sister.

She was hiding it and refused to say anything, and the two of them were even more curious.

In a blink of an eye, the day of the recognition banquet has arrived.

Although the ostentation was not big, Mrs. Cheng was the first wife of Wu'an Marquis Pei Haoting. If the recognition banquet was too shabby, it would make people look down on Pei Haoting.

Therefore, although Pei Haoting was dissatisfied with this, he could only hold his nose and take out the money.

In addition to the silver money Pei Haoting received, Mrs. Cheng also took some of her own dowry and added it to it, thus hosting a glorious recognition banquet for Pei Qianyue.

Not long after Pei Qianyue was born, her biological mother went there. She had grown up eating a lot of food from the servants in the house. She had never seen such a grand and magnificent scene, not to mention that the banquet was held just for her. of.

Therefore, Pei Qianyue was already nervous when he was called by the maid to dress up in the morning.

Pei Qianyue always felt worried when thinking about the tall girl who had been silent these days.

This does not look like the other party's style at all, but rather seems like he is holding back some bad move.

She felt uneasy, but she really didn't dare to talk nonsense about something that had no trace, so she could only think about being careful and not letting the conversation slip.

It's a small matter for her, but if she delays Madam, it will be a big matter.

Although Pei Qianyue had been mentally prepared for a long time, he really didn't expect that the other party's methods would be so vicious.

When the maid led her out of the inner room, she met the eyes of the guests present. She felt that the eyes of these people looking at her were indescribably strange, and there seemed to be people whispering underneath.

Pei Qianyue suppressed her uneasiness and strode towards Cheng's direction.

But just halfway through, she suddenly heard something clearly.

"I heard that this girl was born to Mrs. Pei and her concubine. She raised her outside for many years before she found an opportunity to take her back to her..."

The moment he heard these words clearly, Pei Qianyue's face turned pale almost immediately.

She pretended to be calm and hurriedly looked up at Cheng, but she was too young after all, and the panic in her eyes quickly betrayed her heart.

If Pei Qianyue can hear clearly, Cheng can certainly hear it clearly.

But compared to Pei Haoting who was standing aside, Cheng's expression was not abnormal at all. She looked at Pei Qianyue with a smile in her eyes.

Pei Qianyue felt more at ease now.

She forced herself to calm down, held up her skirt and walked step by step in Cheng's direction.

The further she walked, the louder the sounds around her became.

And those rumors were spread so much that some people actually seemed to believe them.

Faced with everyone's pointing fingers, Pei Haoting's face darkened, and he immediately stood up with a wave of his sleeves. His face was so gloomy that he could shed water. Just as he was about to say something, he heard the eunuch's sharp voice coming from outside.

"The Queen Mother has arrived——"

Queen Mother?

Everyone present looked at each other in shock. The Queen Mother had arrived. Even Pei Haoting did not dare to say anything and hurriedly followed everyone to kneel down and worship the Queen Mother.

"Get up, you're welcome. The Ai family has come to see An Bai."

Hearing the empress dowager calling Mrs. Cheng "Girl Anbai" in a familiar tone, everyone present had different expressions.

But no matter what he was thinking, he still had a fake smile on his face to congratulate Mr. Cheng.

"Mrs. Pei is blessed. Not only her second son is promising, but also her adopted daughter, who looks like she will be one of the best in the future." As soon as someone started, all the whispers around him turned into compliments.

Everyone has their own evil intentions, but they all have flattering smiles on their faces.

Facing the compliments from everyone, Pei Qianyue was not at all overwhelmed. She knew that these compliments were not because of her, but because of the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother and Madam were very familiar with each other, so no one dared to look down on her.

Pei Qianyue glanced into the crowd, but happened to see the tall girl hiding in the crowd.

Before the cheerful smile on her face could subside, her face was already filled with shock.

Pei Haoting on the side was also complimenting the Queen Mother with a smile on his face, and he was even more happy in his heart.

He was just about to stop the recognition banquet directly, but he didn't expect that the Queen Mother came at the right time.

Fortunately he hadn't said anything yet...

But, when did Cheng meet the Queen Mother?
Pei Haoting looked at Cheng with some suspicion.

But Cheng's expression was not strange at all.

In the end, Pei Haoting could only suppress the doubts in his heart and wait until the Queen Mother left before asking.

Faced with the sudden visit of the Queen Mother, Mrs. Cheng showed no signs of discomfort at all. Instead, she calmly directed her servants to serve tea and pour water while chatting with the Queen Mother, making the Queen Mother smile constantly.

Everyone present was basically a human being. Seeing this scene, they didn’t understand anything.

The Queen Mother was obviously here to support the Cheng family.

These people are usually the most attuned to the situation, and they can say compliments like they are free of charge.

"Is this Qianyue?" The Queen Mother suddenly changed her tone and her eyes fell on Pei Qianyue with a smile.

Pei Qianyue hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

Before the recognition banquet, Mrs. Cheng had already asked her nanny to teach her etiquette, and Pei Qianyue herself learned it carefully and her salute postures were in place, and no one could make any mistakes.

"This child is good at first glance." The Queen Mother did not hesitate to praise her, and immediately took a hairpin from her head and handed it to Pei Qianyue.

"The Ai family really likes this child. I have time today and haven't prepared anything, so I will give this hairpin to Qian Yue."

"The Queen Mother, this gift is too heavy."

Mrs. Cheng was startled and hurriedly pulled Pei Qianyue to kneel down.

"You girl, this is given to the child by the Ai family." The queen mother made a majestic look, so Mrs. Cheng hurriedly pulled Pei Qianyue and asked her to thank her.

Seeing this, the people sitting below slowly became more excited.

There are not many opportunities to meet the Queen Mother, and this opportunity is rare. I was quick-thinking and just started chatting with the Queen Mother under the title of recognition banquet.

The current Queen Mother has a high status. She was the Queen when she entered the palace. Later, she gave birth to the current Emperor, two princesses, and the Thirteenth Master one after another.

The late emperor died early, and the emperor was only eleven years old when he succeeded to the throne. It was the queen mother who listened to the affairs behind the curtain and supported the emperor's growth. Later, after the emperor got married, the queen mother gradually stopped interfering in government affairs.

However, both the emperor and the queen treated the queen mother with utmost respect.

Therefore, the Queen Mother's status in the palace is very transcendent. However, over the years, the Queen Mother's health has become worse than before, so she rarely leaves the palace and spends more time in the palace to meditate on Buddha.

The Queen Mother was very happy, so she didn't stay long at the recognition banquet. However, the time spent in this moment had already made Cheng and Pei Qianyue very proud.
