The Prince's Humen's Wife

Chapter 135 Murder (2)
Li Chaochao saw that everyone suddenly realized, so he pursed his lips and remained silent.

Mother He ordered a few little girls to go to the front hall to set up lunch, and then she leaned in front of her and whispered, "I think there is another person who can be used, and there is another one outside the old man... If she comes back to disrupt the situation, things will go wrong." more complete."

Li Chaochao shook his head, "Don't worry, now is not the time to reveal the cards."

The rain stopped before the Mid-Autumn Festival, but there were floods in several cities in the south. Yangufang donated money by example, and won the praise of the people in Zhenjiang City. The business is getting better and better. Li Boxing also wrote to say that Among the three major incense powder shops, Huazhiyuan signed a cooperation agreement to supply goods to the capital in the future. Li Chaochao only agreed to supply for one year, and the other party didn't have any objections. Fortunately, Mu Xueyi didn't come out to make trouble. It seems that he is really sick. Also let her take a breath, so that she doesn't have to be distracted to figure out how to deal with him.

In the blink of an eye, it was the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the night was bright and full of moonlight. Li's family banquet was held in Yonghe Hall. There were two large tables in the yard, and the banquet had not yet started. Following Li Chaochao into the room, he took off the dark red and golden cloak for her, and stepped aside obediently.

Only the old lady, aunt and Xiu Niang were sitting in the room, Li Chaochao saluted one by one with a smile, at the end, Xiu Niang hummed almost invisibly, and turned her head away from looking at her.

When the aunt heard that she had gouged her out, she hurriedly greeted Li Chaochao, "Look, this dress is really nice."

Xiu Niang laughed nonchalantly: "You can't be a phoenix even with chicken feathers. How poor is the fifth girl? She even wears a wooden hairpin. If someone sees it, they will think that your mother has treated you harshly."

Li Chaochao was wearing a brocade cloud-patterned gown, and a light blue soft smoky robe underneath. The match was bright and attractive, but there was an orchid wooden hairpin in her hair. She subconsciously raised her hand to touch it, and said indifferently: " What the second girl said is right, Phoenix is ​​not so easy to be, so after the second girl gets married, she still has to be cautious in her words and deeds, she treats her own sisters coldly, so how do you treat your parents-in-law and sister-in-law when you get married?"

She coldly raised her head and glanced sharply at Xiu Niang, and her face turned pale with one sentence, "So you have to take care of yourself, reflect on yourself, and don't let grandma and mother worry."

"You..." Xiu Niang immediately jumped up as if she was on fire.

The aunt slapped the armrest violently, "What are you, Miss Wu, what did you say wrong? Thanks to your age, you actually use your sister to remind you, old lady, you dare to be presumptuous here!"

The old lady turned the Buddhist beads in her hand, and raised her eyelids lazily, "Xiu Niang, you have to abide by your duty, and don't be tricky and unreasonable, so that you can be loved by your husband. The water poured out by a married woman is yours." If you don’t love and respect yourself, we won’t protect you.”

Xiuniang knelt on the ground and kowtowed in fear, "Grandmother is right, Xiuniang must keep it in mind!"

"You also need to know the interests of your husband's family and your mother's family. Without the support of your mother's family, no one will think highly of you."

The old lady beat Xiu Niang with words, telling her in disguise that if she didn't want to cross the river and demolish the bridge, thinking that she would not be restrained by her natal family if she got married, or even harm the interests of her natal family, then it would only be herself who would be unlucky in the end!
Xiu Niang was so anxious that she broke out in a cold sweat. She just satirized a hairpin, and Li Chaochao asked everyone to side with her. Why?Why should she!
She must die, she must die!

My aunt did deliberately favor Li Chaochao, but she was even more surprised by her domineering appearance.

When did Li Chaochao become so powerful?Or was she wrong before?

Xiuniang was scolding the eighteenth generation of Li Chaochao's ancestors in her heart, when the second aunt suddenly lifted the curtain and walked in, seeing her precious daughter kneeling, she glanced at the old lady for no reason, and hurriedly stepped forward with a smile to smooth things over , "Old lady, the eldest lady is here, I am here to invite you to a seat."

Second Yiniang was busy with the banquet today, so she didn't pay attention to Xiu Niang, when the old lady took people out, she grabbed Xiu Niang and said: "Miss, calm down."

Xiu Niang was also very angry, she stomped her feet and said nothing.

After the ceremony, the men and women sat at separate tables, with the old lady at the head, followed by the eldest lady, Li Manman, Xiuniang and the auntie, and Li Chaochao was at the end. As expected, Jinniang and his wife did not come back, and the others were not surprised .

The old lady saw that the lady's face was slightly pale, and sighed: "The night is as cold as water, you should wear more clothes."

"Daughter-in-law can save it." The eldest lady coughed lightly, "Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, the two aunts should sit down too. Today is the second aunt who will start the banquet, and she will also say the toast."

"Thank you Madam." Second Aunt thanked with a smile.

Seeing her smiling brightly, the Da Furen curled her mouth coldly, but Aunt Liu said: "The Da Furen has always served me, so I won't be seated tonight."

Aunt Liu stood obediently behind the eldest lady, and Li Chaochao saw that she would know how to judge the situation, otherwise how could she last so long in the hands of the eldest lady in her previous life.

The second aunt curled her lips to express her disdain. She turned her head and saw that the banquet was already open at the old man's side. She held up her glass and stood up smiling, "The moon is round in the Mid-Autumn Festival. Let's have a reunion. Today everyone is here, so let's toast." , this table of dishes is given to the old lady by the imperial chef who sits in person, and it can only be eaten by the nobles in the palace, so let's toast to the ancestors together first."

Everyone laughed, and the second aunt couldn't say anything elegant, but fortunately, it was her intention. The maid and daughter-in-law behind each poured wine for the master, and everyone toasted together. Just as they were about to speak, there was a creepy laugh :"Ha ha ha ha ha……"

Everyone turned their heads at the same time, and saw a shambling figure approaching from a distance. They didn't know who it was.

In the midst of everyone's confusion, the laughter came close, everyone was shocked, and saw that the third aunt was covered with white hair, and the clothes on her body were not dirty, but smelled a strange smell, which made people feel nauseous. She walked over with a foolish smile, and before they could react, she knelt down on the ground with a plop, and wailed, "Greetings to the old lady, my lord, my lady."

"You...why are you here!" The second aunt turned pale with fright, and glanced at Xiuniang in a panic.

Xiu Niang also frowned almost imperceptibly, who let her out!

foul smell!

Seeing the expressions of the two of them, Li Chaochao smiled indifferently, only carefully looked at the rich dishes on the table, and secretly whispered to Xia He: "I'm already hungry."

The third aunt over there heard what the second aunt said, and yelled: "Why can't I come! Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet, you can come, why can't I! We are all aunts, how can you be more noble than me!"

Second Aunt felt that she was indeed crazy, and dared to be so presumptuous with herself.

She looked at the face of the eldest lady, and found that she hadn't spoken, so she said on her own: "Hurry up and take this lunatic away! There's no room for her to be presumptuous at tonight's family banquet!"
