Unparalleled Fortune in Qing Dynasty

Chapter 2 Banquet
"My mother~"

Listening to her daughter's delicate voice, Shu Mulu felt relaxed.

Tong Cheng'er has a special magical power. Although she is lazy, looking at her makes people feel in a good mood, and Shu Mulu's can't help it.

So she's in a good mood.

Shu Mulu said with a smile: "Come here, come and have dinner with Er Niang."

"Yes, my mother."

Speaking of that, Tong Cheng'er walked to Shu Mulu's side with her not-so-long legs, then put her arms around her waist and said, "Emiang, my daughter misses you so much!"

Shu Mulu was very happy when he heard that, he tapped her forehead with his hand, and said with a smile: "I can see you someday, you still miss me!"

Tong Cheng'er buried her head in Shu Mulu's chest, and said coquettishly, "I just miss my mother, I think about it even if I don't see you for a moment."

Shu Mulu couldn't stand her acting like a baby, and his heart almost melted after hearing this.

The mother and daughter had a conversation, and Tong Cheng'er's sister-in-law came over after a while.

Although Shu Mulu was not the kind of person who would tease his daughter-in-law, his attitude towards his daughter-in-law was a little colder. It wasn't that he was dissatisfied with his daughter-in-law, but his attitude just couldn't be warmer.

Mrs. Fucha didn't think there was anything wrong. Her mother-in-law had the same attitude towards her daughter-in-law in her natal family, which was already good.

"I've seen Er Niang." Mrs. Fu Cha greeted Mrs. Shu Mulu.

Shu Mulu: "Get up, sit down and talk."

"Thank you mother."

When Fucha saw Tong Cheng'er, she couldn't help laughing and said, "Little sister will soon become a big girl, and she still likes to act like a baby in Erniang's arms!"

Tong Cheng'er smiled and said, "I just like Er Niang."

After eating, the Fucha family went back, and Tong Cheng'er also wanted to go back. Two days ago, she published a new book on handling cases, and she was planning to go back to read it. She was caught by the mother yesterday to learn the rules, and she didn't free.

She has to learn the rules today, so she wants to go back and watch for a while.

"Emiang, my daughter will come to see you tomorrow."

Shu Mulu immediately stopped her: "Stop, I have something to tell you."

Tong Cheng'er stayed.

"Emiang, what's the matter with you, you still have to keep your daughter."

"I can't keep you if I have nothing to do, you little heartless."

Tong Cheng'er shook her head and denied, "Daughter doesn't mean that."

"Okay, I've got some clothes made for you. You can try them on when you go back. If they don't fit you, change them quickly. The next one will go to the flower viewing banquet held by Prince Gong Fujin with Er Niang."

Tong Cheng'er looked confused: "Emiang? What kind of flower feast, can I not go?"

Mrs. Shu Mulu immediately refused: "No, you are ten years old, you can't go out all day at home, you have to meet a few people of the same age, or you will be blinded when you are in the draft. It's not good for Gong Lian to know someone who can speak, you were young before, and I indulged you, but now I won't continue to manipulate you."

Tong Cheng'er really doesn't want to go, what kind of banquet, is there a good storybook?

Certainly not.

Then why is she going.

Tong Cheng'er acted like a baby: "Er Niang~Er Niang~Er Niang~~"

Hearing her daughter's soft voice, Mrs. Shu Mulu couldn't help feeling a little loose, but when she thought about the draft, she became firm again.

"No matter what you say this time, you have to go."

Tong Cheng'er knew that there was no way to change the result, so she had to say: "Okay then!"

Seeing her shrugging her head and looking listless, Mrs. Shu Mulu couldn't help but said, "Why did I give birth to you, a little slob."

Tong Cheng'er retorted: "It's not a slob."

Shu Mulu: "Yes, yes, it's not a little slob, it's a big slob."

"Hmph, I'm not a slob."

"Okay, okay, not a slob."

Tong Cheng'er didn't know if it was because she was reborn and loved by her family. Sometimes her behavior was no different from that of a real child, or even more childish.

So I think such boring and naive conversations often happen.

Tong Cheng'er enjoys it all the time, and the family members are willing to make trouble with her, and enjoy it.

She had just returned to her small courtyard and picked up a book to read for a while!Then I heard a maid come over and say: "Ge Ge, Fujin sent someone to bring over clothes, you should try them on first to see if they fit."

Tong Cheng'er didn't think it mattered, but after all, it was her mother who sent someone over, so she went to try on clothes.

Three suits came.

A pair of peach-pink double-breasted cheongsams, embroidered with begonia flowers, Tong Cheng'er is not very old, she is at a lovely and tender age, and her face is as fair as a porcelain doll. Lining the clothes a little out of the ordinary.

The other two sets are red cheongsams, the bright red is very bright, she wears them, a bit like the blessing dolls in the New Year pictures pasted on the door during the Chinese New Year, looking very festive.

Tong Cheng'er tried on three sets of clothes, and there was nothing wrong with them.

In the first place, it is unlikely that there will be an inappropriate situation, after all, this dress was custom-made by the embroiderer according to her size.

While serving Tong Cheng'er to try on the clothes, Nanny Ning kept sighing: "Gege is born well, this dress looks really good on her body, I can see that there is no one better than Gege's. "

Although this statement is somewhat biased, it is undeniable that Tong Cheng'er was born really well. Although she is young, she has exquisite facial features. It can be seen that she will definitely be a beauty in the future. Can't help but sigh "delicate and lovely".

After trying on the clothes, Nanny Jin came over. Seeing Nanny Jin, Tong Cheng'er wailed in her heart. It seemed that she couldn't read the script.

Two days passed in the blink of an eye, and Tong Cheng'er was wearing the peach-pink cheongsam with begonias and matching pink embroidered shoes on her feet, and followed Mrs. Shu Mulu into the carriage to the Prince's Mansion.

This time the post for the flower viewing feast was handed over by Prince Gong Jifujin Ma Shi.

The carriage was walking slowly on the street, probably because it was too difficult to drive, Tong Cheng'er didn't feel the bumps, but the speed was slow, and the carriage was a bit boring.

Tong Cheng'er couldn't help asking: "Emiang, why would the well-behaved Prince Gong Fujin hold a flower appreciation banquet, it's so boring."

It forced her to go out, the flowers are similar to those grown by other families, she felt that the flowers in their garden were good enough, and she didn't need to appreciate the flowers of other people's houses.

Shu Mulu is Tong Cheng'er's mother-in-law, and she knows her temperament best. Hearing this, he knew that he might complain in his heart.

"Why are you so unwilling to ask you to go out!"

Tong Cheng'er said sullenly: "I'm not unhappy."

"It's still believable to put your expression back."

Well, she just doesn't want to go out.

In fact, it's not that she hasn't participated in similar banquets before, but this kind of banquet is really boring to her.

The topic of chatting with women of her age is more about female housekeepers, and more deeply about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. These are not within the scope of her interest, so naturally she has no desire to chat.

At the banquet, other people gathered to chat and talk, but what about her!I can only find a remote place to stay, boring tight.

After driving on the road for about two quarters of an hour, the carriage stopped, and a servant's voice came from outside: "Fu Jin, Ge Ge, we're here."

It's not the first time that Tong Cheng'er from Prince Gong's Mansion has come here, so there is nothing to be curious about along the way.

She followed her mother Shu Mulu to visit Prince Gong Fujin Ma, and then was taken by Wugege Huiyu of Prince Gong's mansion to a unique garden dedicated to entertaining unmarried Gege.

Along the way, Huiyu introduced her the scenery along the way very thoughtfully. As the emperor's younger brother, Prince Gong's mansion is naturally not bad.

Huiyu saw Tong Cheng'er listening seriously, and had a good impression of her. As the only princess in Prince Gong's mansion who could entertain people, she also said the same thing to many people, but she could tell that most of them were talking about people. She is perfunctory, or although she listens seriously, but the purpose is not pure, she doesn't like it very much.
