On April 28, Qin's birthday party.
Ye Tangcai got up early in the morning and sat in front of the dressing table to wash.
Yawning, she looked at herself with long hair in the mirror.
"The girl got up late. It's time now. The third master has freshened up." Autumn orange combed her hair with an ivory comb in the back.
"The third master doesn't go to the Yamen?" The leaf Tang picks light Yi.
"Today's wife's small birthday party, you can take a rest." Autumn orange road. Daqi is still very good to the imperial court officials. He takes three holidays a month, two are the regular mid month and the end of the month, and one is his own rotation. When you meet a close relative's wedding, you can mention it again.
Ye Tang picked it.
Autumn orange fingers flew, and soon picked and pulled a recorded snake bun for ye Tang. It was fixed with shaving water. The gold thread was wrapped twice. On the bun hairpin, a silk was wrapped, and the golden step shook. A handful of golden fringed tassels hung down. Only a touch of mouth grease was applied on his lips. After changing his clothes, he went out.
Chu yunpan was sitting at the stone table in the courtyard outside. When he saw that ye Tang was picked out, he smiled faintly: "let's go."
The couple went to Yixiang hospital together.
I met aunt Bai and Chu Miaohua at the door. Aunt Bai looked at ye Tangcai and Chu yunpan with embarrassment on her face.
After all, things are really ugly now.
At that time, when Wen came to kiss, aunt Bai was also present. Unexpectedly, after Qin refused and regretted it, he was called by Mrs. Chen once and refused to admit it. Now Chu yunpan is frightened by bullets and makes such an ugly scene.
Aunt Bai felt guilty when she saw ye Tangcai and Chu yunpan, but Qin was her mistress and her former mistress. She couldn't stand up, so she kept hiding in the house.
Now I ran into it alone. Aunt Bai smiled, "Third Master, third grandmother."
"Three brothers, little sister-in-law." Chu Miaohua called timidly, holding aunt Bai's arm.
Ye Tangcai only answered faintly: "it's getting late. Go in quickly."
She can understand the position of aunt Bai and Chu Miaohua, but it is difficult to have a good impression on them.
Chu Miaohua saw that she was cold and her eyes were red.
Ye Tangcai and Chu yunpan have gone into the house.
In the west room of Yixiang courtyard, the Qin family and uncle Chu sat at the top, and Chu Miaoshu sat next to the Qin family on the lily embroidered pier next to her. Jiang Xinxue and Chu Feiyang arrived early.
Qin hasn't had a small birthday party for ten years. In the past, even though I was young, I was able to do well with the family situation of the imperial uncle's house at that time.
Now she can do another one, but when she thought that it was because of Chu yunpan's relationship, her heart was broken again and again.
"The third master, the third grandmother, aunt Bai and the second girl are coming." The sound of green leaves sounded outside.
Qin sipped his lips and lied to himself. He was still a little empty in his heart, but his face was strong and calm. He felt a little happy when he thought that Chu yunpan had been punished for this.
The bead curtain was lifted with a crash, and Chu yunpan and ye Tangcai came together.
Chu yunpan was a homely girl with light blue and dark lines, a clear and handsome man, and his eyes and eyebrows were as beautiful as red and green ink paintings. There was a hint of ridicule in his eyes, and his lips were carrying a smile. He came slowly with a gorgeous and elegant girl. The walking posture is calm and square.
It doesn't look like official frustration.
Qin's heart was rolling with unspeakable hatred.
In her mind, Chu yunpan should have been made a mess of the whole person. Looking at her, she should be very angry but helpless.
But now, where is there any disappointment or anxiety.
"Father, mother." They came forward and saluted the Qin family and uncle Chu.
"Well, sit down." Uncle Chu took a look at Qin's family and saw that she was still angry with Chu yunpan and was a little nervous.
Chu Miaoshu was unhappy because she could not see their disappointment, but she was guilty and didn't say a word.
"Father, mother." Chu Miaohua and aunt Bai also saluted.
"Sit, sit." Uncle Chu hurried.
They took their seats. After a while, aunt Fei and Chu Congke also came.
Uncle Chu said, "Happy Birthday!"
Chu Feiyang hugged Chu Xuehai and stood in a row with Jiang Xinxue and Chu Miaoshu.
Chu yunpan and his wife, Chu Congke and Chu Miaohua stood in a row, and the two aunts stood in the last row.
The people knelt down to the Qin family and said auspicious wishes for their birthday.
After worship, sit down and give a birthday gift.
Jiang Xinxue and Chu Feiyang sent a bird head gold hairpin inlaid with emerald, a Shuiguang emerald bracelet, and two self-made water red brocade wiping forehead.
Jiang Xinxue said with a smile: "my family is poor, so I can only honor these. Wait for the next day..." I want to say that when she will be rich and noble, but I don't know when to wait. I'm afraid at least Chu Xuehai will have to pass the entrance examination. It will take more than ten years!
When Jiang Xinxue thought of Ye Tangcai's husband and wife, she didn't feel good about it. She just said, "when we have something to do in the future, we will show more filial piety to our mother."
In fact, I have given an extra Bracelet this year. In previous years, it was a piece of jewelry and something made by myself.
Chu Congke gave a palm sized Jade Buddha. Look at the quality of the jade, I'm afraid it's more than ten liang of silver. In the past, the Qin family would embarrass Chu Congke, but now Chu yunpan is lazy to pick his thorn.
After Chu Congke sent it, he went to Chu yunpan and ye Tangcai.
This gift was prepared by Chu yunpan. Without Qin's birthday, ye Tang had to pick out a dowry.
It's a Qishou Changchun white stone bonsai, an emerald ring Pei with general value and water head. In addition, ye Tangcai's hand-made embroidered shoes with Su Yun pattern are this birthday gift.
Qin Shi looked at this thing and brushed his face. He was a little heavy. None of them is very valuable. You don't need a hundred liang of silver for this quality.
Jiang Xinxue said, "the third brother and sister-in-law are really filial." Say irony.
"Like my sister-in-law, I have filial piety." Ye Tangcai smiled faintly.
Jiang Xinxue choked and sneered, "our big house is poor. We can't afford the third brother and sister-in-law. One is an official and the other is rich in dowry."
"No matter what, I can't go over my brother and sister-in-law." Ye Tangcai hissed.
"You..." Jiang Xinxue's gray face sank and was about to say something. Chu Feiyang, who sat next to her, said coldly: "my younger sister and brother are right."
Jiang Xinxue choked and looked at Chu Feiyang. He still had an expressionless face. My heart is blocked and flustered. Since he was divorced by the princess nine years ago, he has been depressed. He either thinks about the woman in a daze or does nothing all day, even his son.
Now he actually helps ye Tangcai speak, and jealousy flashed in Jiang Xinxue's eyes.
"Yes, yes, you can't cross." Uncle Chu said“ It's getting late. Sister Shu and sister Hua are about to send their birthday gifts and entertain distinguished guests in Bailu garden. "
Chu Miaoshu and Chu Miaohua gave gifts, and ye Tangcai and others went out.
This kind of banquet is usually held in Bailu garden.
There are three large octagonal water pavilions in a row on the lake to entertain female guests, and the corridor under a piece of bamboo on the right side of the shore to entertain male guests. The scenery is good.
At this time, guests have come one after another. In the past, Zhongfu was managed by Qin himself. Today, she is celebrating her birthday. Jiang Xinxue is taking Chu Miaoshu with her. They go outside to welcome guests. Ye Tangcai took Chu Miaohua with him and commanded the servant girl to prepare tea, snacks and other things.
Around midnight, almost all the guests arrived.
There are so many family members today. Even if Chu yunpan is the number one in the new science, it is impossible for so many people to come. But because of the trouble a few days ago, all the ladies want to see what's going on. Therefore, all who can come are here.
Under the porch beside the lake, uncle Chu was entertaining male guests with his three sons. The male guest won't mention the Qin family a few days ago.
Uncle Chu was in a good mood when he saw no one mention it. He chatted with a guest. He didn't know what to say. He laughed and couldn't help looking at the waterside pavilion in the lake.
I saw that the place was full of ladies. Thinking about the bustle, the rumor should be erased.
The waterside pavilion is really noisy, but it is not happy and lively, but bursts of sobs.
The Qin family sat on the red board bench in the waterside pavilion with a gloomy face. Almost all the guests arrived. Jiang Xinxue was busy outside. Chu Miaoshu had come back to rest and was sitting next to the Qin family. Also forced to smile.
Your wife around you doesn't know what happened some time ago. She looks worried.
"Mrs. Chu, why are you too sad, alas." It was Mrs. Wang who spoke first.
Mrs. Wang is the wife of Wang Yushi. In the court hall, the one who is most frightened is Wang Chengcun.
Jiang Xinxue's mother, Jiang Fu, said, "I've never seen such an unfilial person."
"Yes." A round faced lady opposite said coldly, "I hate such a bastard most. If my concubine dared to do so, my family would not allow him. "
Qin said with a forced smile: "who calls him capable, what else can I do."
"What do you mean he can do it?" Another green man said, "if you have the ability, you can ride on your mother's head?"
"I used to be obedient, but since I married... That's it." Qin shed tears.
"If I say, neither is a good thing. The Ye family, in particular, has never paid attention to her first mother since she married. "
"This kind of people who can't even educate their children well have a reason to stay together. No wonder Ye Chengde and Yin tingniang." Wangfu humanity.
"Who are you talking about?" A cold laugh sounded.
The people in the waterside pavilion were surprised. Looking back, they saw ye Tangcai leading Wen, Miao, ye Lingjiao and Luo from the bridge, followed by Mrs. Chen.
It was Wen who just spoke.
The lady here was surprised and her face was chatty. After all, it was too much to say that she deserved to leave.
But Mrs. Wang was not afraid. She sneered, "it's Mrs. Wen."
Wen's face sank and sneered: "I want to make it clear that it's not that I was thrown out, but that I threw Ye Chengde away. At that time, in the court, the Ye family begged me to go back. I didn't want to. "
As soon as these words came out, Miao and Luo's faces behind them were a little embarrassed.
