Sir, I just want to be a salted fish

Chapter 154 Chips
Tang Bingxuan felt that Ling Ruhua was too arrogant and tried to belittle herself, so she advised: "You guys play well with me on weekdays, so naturally they won't care about your life experience; besides, my sister has the highest status, who dares to dislike you?"

Ling Ruhua did not agree immediately, but said that she would think about it before replying to Tang Bingxuan.

On the tenth day of February, Tang Bingxuan held a small private banquet in the courtyard of Yongninghou Mansion.

Tang Bingxuan also invited Zheng Ke from the Duke of Qi's Palace, Cousin Shao, the eldest grandson's daughter-in-law from the Jingtinghou Palace, and sisters Chen Xiaoyue and Chen Xiaoqing;

Pingyu was about to give birth and couldn't come at all, not to mention that she was a princess and it would be inconvenient to leave the palace.

This was a private party for the little sisters, so Tang Bingxuan kept it low-key. She specifically told her mother-in-law, Mrs. Qiao, not to invite her two pregnant sisters-in-law to attend.

The sisters from Duke Rong's Mansion were the first to arrive today. Tang Bingyu was younger than Tang Bingqing, but he was much better at handling people than the nerd Tang Bingqing.

The three sisters entered the Yongning Hou Mansion and went to the main courtyard to meet Mrs. Hou, Mrs. Qiao. They had a conversation with Mrs. Hou before going to Tang Bingxuan's courtyard.

Today Tang Bingxuan hosted a banquet in honor of the little sisters. Jiang Shunian took Jiang Qi out to meet friends, leaving space for Tang Bingxuan and others. He also specially left the smart and talkative Jiang Ming behind to listen to Tang Bingxuan's orders.

Tang Bingxuan told Jiang Ming to help Zhidong take out several of her collections of fruit wine from the warehouse. Not only did she ask Zhidong to prepare the dishes in advance, but she also went to Zuixianju to order a few signature dishes.

The invited people all arrived at Yongninghou Mansion early. After not seeing each other for many days, everyone wanted to see each other's situation and talk about their days at home.

Sister Chen Xiaoyue specially brought the Princess of Roujia County here. Everyone can get together and get along very well.

Tang Bingxuan introduced her good sisters and sisters one by one, and Chen Xiaoyue also took the initiative to introduce the head of Roujia County.

"Sister Tang, did you invite others?"

The head of Roujia County asked Tang Bingxuan when he saw that although the owner warmly entertained several people, he looked outside the door from time to time.

Ling Ruhua sent a message yesterday, saying that she would come to the banquet, and asked Tang Bingxuan to specially greet the concierge of Yongning Hou Mansion. She only said that it was Mrs. Shen who was visiting, and there was no need to disclose Ling Ruhua's identity as the eldest princess.

Tang Bingxuan smiled and let it slip, "There is still one person who has not arrived yet. As for who is coming later, you will know."

Ling Ruhua arrived not long after. When he entered the mansion, he spoke to the concierge and came in quietly. Therefore, except for Tang Bingxuan and Mrs. Qiao, no one in the Hou's mansion knew that Princess Linghua was visiting today.

Several people present saw Ling Ruhua hurriedly stepped forward to salute. Ling Ruhua said in a cold voice: "There is no need to be polite. We are all getting along with each other as sisters today. There is no need to disturb everyone's interest because of our status."

Several people nodded in agreement, but after all, they were not familiar with Ling Ruhua, so they couldn't let go for a while, and the scene became a bit cold.

Among these people, Ling Ruhua was the tallest in terms of status and the oldest in terms of age. However, Ruhua had such a cold temper that no one dared to approach her at first. Tang Bingxuan specially prepared snacks, fruits and several warm drinks for everyone to entertain themselves. From time to time, she would greet a few people and not be polite in her territory.

According to seniority, Ling Ruhua was Ling Roujia's cousin. Ling Roujia was not afraid of being embarrassed in the cold, so she took the initiative to come over to Ling Ruhua and talk.

With the initiative of Lord Roujia and Tang Bingxuan's efforts to harmonize the atmosphere, everyone gradually relaxed and found their own small groups to communicate.

Although Zheng Ke and Tang Bingyu were three years apart, they had similar temperaments, and they soon got together to chat intimately;

Tang Bingyan is the youngest, and although she is also a ghost with no stage fright, she has been following her eldest sister Tang Bingxuan today, and she is extremely well-behaved;
Sister Chen Xiaoyue saw that County Master Roujia was having a good conversation with Ling Ruhua, and soon the two of them joined in. The four of them seemed to get along very well with each other;
Tang Bingqing loves to read, and several of the people present are young ladies who have read poetry and books. It is not difficult to communicate with each other. The difficulty is that we are not as bookish as Tang Bingqing;

Fortunately, the considerate cousin of the Shao family took the initiative to communicate with Tang Bingqing. The topic gradually expanded from poetry to daily food hobbies, which shows that the cousin of the Shao family has extraordinary social skills in Jingtinghou Mansion.

Among them, Tang Bingxuan and Shao's cousin were both married, Ling Ruhua and her young son reconciled, the head of Roujia County was engaged, and the rest were not yet engaged.

Chen Xiaoyue had made a good marriage agreement last fall, and the wedding was scheduled for May this year. She never expected that her fiancé would go out to visit friends a few years ago. On the way, the axle of the carriage suddenly broke, and he and the carriage fell off a cliff and died unexpectedly. ;
The accidental death of her fiancée had nothing to do with Chen Xiaoyue, a woman who had not yet left the government. However, rumors arose out of nowhere that Chen Xiaoyue was destined to be a husband, and whoever married her would be doomed;
Therefore, the more superstitious people in Kyoto would rather believe that Qi You was unwilling to get married to the Marquis Jingting. Chen Xiaoyue's marriage was delayed, and she has been living in seclusion at home these days.

Chen Xiaoyue was not a person who would be depressed because of unfounded rumors, otherwise she would not have come happily upon receiving Tang Bingxuan's invitation, but everyone present tacitly agreed not to mention this matter.

The snacks, meals and fruit wine prepared by Tang Bingxuan won unanimous praise from everyone, and they unanimously proposed to hold more such gatherings.

The head of Roujia County added: "We can also hold banquets one by one, as long as we ask Sister Tang to provide us with good wine."

It's just a few bottles of wine. Tang Bingxuan's wine shop will open this year, and good wine is absolutely indispensable, so she agreed very simply.

Everyone agreed with County Lord Roujia’s proposal, and some began to pick a date to prepare for the second banquet.
On the afternoon of the eighth day of March, Crown Princess Pingyu's stomach was upset, and it was not until almost midnight that she gave birth to the emperor's eldest grandson, hoarsely, and the mother and child were safe.

The palace attendants in the East Palace, especially those serving in Crown Princess Pingyu's Palace, were all smiling and congratulated the Crown Prince and Crown Princess on the birth of Lin'er.

Prince Ling Qian had been waiting outside since Pingyu started. During this period, he heard Pingyu shouting hoarsely and crying bitterly. He wanted to break into the delivery room to see the situation. Empress Qin, who was sitting in the East Palace, quickly ordered the palace people to stop her.

When Pingyu got a boy, Empress Qin had to look up to her. Now this child is the eldest grandson of the Holy Emperor, so his status is naturally different from that of the subsequent grandchildren.

Emperor Ling had been sending people to watch the news in the East Palace. In the middle of the night, he heard that the Crown Princess had safely given birth to the Emperor's eldest grandson, Long. He was overjoyed. Regardless of the fact that he had already undressed and rested, he stood up with his coat on and wrote in front of the desk, naming the Emperor's eldest grandson Ling Wei and explaining. The palace people raised her well.

Concubine Cai and Emperor Ling received the news at about the same time. When they heard that the crown princess had given birth to the emperor's eldest grandson, they found it difficult to sleep in the middle of the night.

Empress Dowager Cai was so old that she went to bed so early that no one in the palace dared to disturb her in the middle of the night. It was not until the next day that the palace palace announced the good news that she had a great-grandson. She was really happy, but she also hoped that Princess Qiu Chan of Jin would also have the crown prince Ping Yu. Good luck.
