Chapter 415

Banquets held by rich families are naturally different from banquets in the countryside, and they generally don't talk too much at the banquet.After saying a few words, they ate in silence, until the master brought up the topic again after he was six or seven percent full, and then began to chat casually.

Qiaoyun didn't come to the Duke's mansion to eat this meal. Even if the dishes in front of her were very delicious, she had never seen them before, and she would never let go to eat them.The eldest princess can see it, so she repeatedly persuades Qiaoyun to eat more. Chu Ruifeng has been paying attention to Qiaoyun, telling Qiaoyun which dish is better from time to time.

The atmosphere at the banquet was good, but this warm and cheerful feeling was quickly broken.Not long after the banquet started, several women in charge came in from outside, "His Royal Highness, the Duke's Mansion sent a steward to come, saying that the old lady asked Her Royal Highness to come over immediately. In addition, she also asked Her Royal Highness to come over immediately." Take Miss Huang together."

It turned out that when the Xu family and the Fan family returned to the Duke's Mansion, they went directly to the old lady's side and reported everything they saw and heard here to the old lady.When the old lady heard it, it turned out that the person invited by the Princess Mansion was actually Chu Ruifeng's sweetheart, and it seemed that the eldest princess and his wife also agreed to the marriage, so the old lady was not happy on the spot.

She wholeheartedly wanted to marry Chu Ruifeng's niece and granddaughter to Chu Ruifeng, and control Chu Ruifeng through the relationship of in-laws, so as to bring huge benefits to her children and grandchildren.But she mentioned this matter to the eldest princess several times, but the eldest princess avoided answering and refused to answer this question at all. The old lady was really annoyed.

The old lady has carefully planned for a long time for the benefit of her children and grandchildren.Over the past year, she has blown pillow wind in the old man's ear from time to time, and even brought all her nieces and grandnieces into the mansion to train them carefully. Tonight, she even planned to let this girl take the opportunity to show up.The old lady still had great confidence in her niece and granddaughter, and she also made careful arrangements, just waiting for Chu Ruifeng to come over tonight and everything would be done.

However, things did not go according to the old lady's intentions. Chu Ruifeng, who had always been cold-faced and disinterested in women, would bring back a girl at this time and claim that she was his unmarried wife. This is really unexpected up.The old lady exploded immediately after hearing the news, and she was furious at that time.So he called someone and ordered them to go to the princess mansion, and asked the eldest princess to take them there.

Naturally, the old lady didn't really want to meet her grandson's sweetheart, and she just wanted to play tricks.She is the wife of the old Duke, the legitimate mother-in-law of the eldest princess, and the grandmother of Chu Ruifeng. It is only natural to meet her grandson's sweetheart.As long as she sees that girl, she can find any excuses to mess up the marriage.

The old lady wasn't the kind of calm and thoughtful person in the first place. When she was angry, she had already left her original plan behind her. She wanted to use her status to find trouble, so she had to resort to some outrageous means to get rid of her. people drive away.

It should be said that Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Fan are not very intelligent people. What they said just now was suspected of being embellished.They came back to sue. The more angry the old lady was, the better, and then she could help them out.With this mentality, of course they would not persuade the old lady, but kept booing.

In this way, the old lady sent two of the most capable nuns in charge around her to take people to the princess' mansion and inform the eldest princess to let her bring that so-called yellow girl with her.

The two nuns in charge actually see things more thoroughly than the old lady. They have been in the Duke's Mansion for so many years, and they are very familiar with the affairs of both the Duke's Mansion and the Princess Mansion, and they know who is really talking about now.Therefore, although the two men followed the old lady's order, they came to the princess mansion slowly.And he didn't rush in rashly, but asked someone to report it in a polite manner.

The eldest princess had long expected that the East Court would not let it go so easily, so she was not too surprised that someone from the East Court came at this moment.However, she was not in the mood to meet the people in the East Courtyard, so she said directly, "The people over there said that I was entertaining guests here in the palace, and there was really no time to go there. The evening reunion was originally scheduled Yes, don't worry over there, I will go to visit the old lady when the time comes."

The eldest princess's tone was very calm, without much ups and downs. Obviously, she didn't take the matter of the East Courtyard into her heart at all.The mothers-in-law here are all the confidantes of the eldest princess, and they were not surprised to hear the order of the eldest princess, so they withdrew and wrote back to the woman in charge of the Duke's mansion.

The two wives sent by the old lady had already expected such a result, so they didn't find it strange.He just sat here laughing and drinking tea, and after sitting for more than a quarter of an hour, he got up to say goodbye and went back to the Duke's mansion.

The two women went back to the Duke's mansion to meet the old lady, but there was no sign of the eldest princess. Don't think about it, it must be that the eldest princess refused to come.The old lady became even angrier now, crying and clamoring to go to the old man for comment.

"Grandmother, you are so old, you must not get angry. It's just a small matter. It's not good to have a fight with the old man because of these." At this moment, in the old lady's room, except for Xu family, Fan family and others also have a girl who is sixteen or seventeen years old.Seeing that the old lady was so angry, the girl hurried forward to comfort her.

"You are still a sensible girl. Alas, I have worked so hard for you. I want to make you and Feng'er wholeheartedly. It would be a pity if you marry those reckless men with your appearance and character. Feng You are young and promising, the two of you are a perfect match, what a good marriage? Oh, those ignorant things, you are so good, why can't they see it?"

The old lady was persuaded by the girl for a while, and then she somewhat calmed down. Looking at the girl in front of her, she couldn't help but sighed. "You are not young anymore. No matter what, I have to settle your marriage. If not, you will be delayed for a year. How can my aunt treat you?"

The girl on the opposite side froze for a moment when she heard this, and then she returned to normal, "What did my aunt say? It is Lan'er's blessing to be able to serve her by her side. There is no delay." Could it be that my aunt detested Lan Er, so she was in a hurry to marry Lan Er?"

Hearing what the girl said, the old lady laughed, "You child, you are used to making people happy. If you weren't by my side, I would have pissed off these bastards to death. Grandma hates you marrying elsewhere , that's why I want you to marry Feng'er, and you can still serve beside grandma in the future, isn't this everyone's happy?"
