Chapter 455, Face Slap
At four o'clock in the afternoon (12:00), Daohua and his entourage arrived at Chen's house.
came so late, not because the Yan family wanted to save the Chen family's face, but because Xiao Yeyang deliberately delayed it for a while. As a result, the Yan family, Dong family, Zhou family, and Su family collectively came late.
Because the Chen family didn’t invite Yan Siyu’s family, this morning the old lady Yan looked a little uncomfortable. Daohua saw it and complained to Xiao Yeyang who came to join them. Going to the hut with an excuse, I was delayed until noon.
Originally, Master Chen Hong was quite dissatisfied with the Yan Family’s late arrival, but he could see Xiao Yeyang and Yan Zhigao coming together, and his faces immediately changed into enthusiastic smiles.
If it were other imperial children, Chen Hong might not be so concerned, but Xiao Yeyang, even if he was far away from Kyoto, he was still talked about by the emperor from time to time.
He knew that the emperor would send someone to give something to him every year during the New Year's Eve. From this it can be seen how deeply this little prince has the heart of the emperor.
Yan Zhigao clasped his fists and smiled: "Master Chen, I'm really sorry, we are late, don't mind you!"
Chen Hong, even if he minded in his heart, did not show at all at this time: "Master Yan is polite, I will be very happy if you can come."
Xiao Yeyang saw Daohua’s carriage entering the door, and then he retracted his gaze, looked at Chen Hong, and said, “Don’t blame Master Yan and them, it’s me. I feel sick this morning. I took some time.”
Hearing this, Chen Hong repeatedly said that it was not a hindrance, but he thought about it in his heart.
Little prince does this mean that he also lives in Yanfu?
Chen Hong smiled and invited everyone in. Seeing Xiao Yeyang and Yan Zhigao walking side by side, their words and deeds were courteous, and his heart was shocked.
It seems that the relationship between the little prince and the Yan family is deeper than he thought!
Changhua Gate.
Ms. Chen smiled and stepped forward to greet Mrs. Li and others.
Because the Dong family, the Zhou family, and the Su family lived in the Yan family, when the three ladies came over, they took a half step and let Madam Li walk in front.
However, Mrs. Chen bypassed Mrs. Li and directly took the hands of Mrs. Dong and Mrs. Su, and exchanged warm greetings.
The smile on Mrs. Li's face was a bit stiff, but she adjusted it quickly.
Ms. Zhou met, smiled and took her arm, and whispered: "Don't mind, people from Kyoto have a pair of snobs."
Ms. Li smiled and shook her head: "I'm not afraid of you smiling. I have never encountered this kind of thing before, but I encountered less after coming to Ningmen Mansion. Now I suddenly encountered it, and it was a little strange."
Ms. Zhou listened to Mrs. Li's funny words and couldn't help but laugh.
Ms. Chen heard it, looked over immediately, smiled and asked, "What is Madam Zhou laughing at?"
Ms. Zhou pointed to the purple-clothed girl in front of Suihua’s door without changing her face: “I’m telling Mrs. Li, which lady is this girl, she is so beautiful?”
A proud smile appeared on Madam Chen's face: "Mrs. Zhou, don't boast, this is my ineffective daughter." Then, she beckoned to the purple-clothed girl, "Jia Rou, come over and meet some people soon." lady."
Chen Jiarou walked over in a cuddly manner, and she was a blessing to everyone: "Karou, please peace of mind to all the ladies."
Ms. Dong smiled and lifted the person up, watching Mrs. Chen praise and said: "Ms. Chen looks really beautiful!"
Chen Jiarou lowered her head shyly.
Ms. Chen smiled modestly: "If you want to talk about Peugeot, how can you compare to the girls you brought here, Mrs. Dong."
Ms. Dong said at the right time: "Yuan Yao, please bring your sisters over to see Mrs. Chen."
Dong Yuanyao immediately saluted.
Madam Chen yelled with a smile, and then looked at the girls several times back and forth, sighing in her heart that her Jiarou is already good enough, and she is also a top beauty in the capital, but she didn’t expect that there would be one in Zhongzhou. Comparable.
Dong’s girl, bright and bright; Su’s girl, gentle and like water; Zhou’s girl, charming and cute, and Yan’s girls have their own characteristics.
However, the most eye-catching among the girls is the eldest daughter of the Yan family.
This Yan family is good at raising children!
Chen Jiarou was also looking at a few girls. Finally, her eyes fell on Daohua. Although other girls were good, she could still find a beautiful woman in the capital. Only this girl, the agile temperament of her whole body, was her. Rarely seen.
After Chen Jia and Daohua saw the ceremony, Mrs. Chen smiled and led the crowd to the backyard table.
The chief envoy of Dong is the highest official in Zhongzhou, and Yan Zhigao is the highest official of the Ningmen Mansion. As soon as Madam Dong and Madam Li appeared, the female relatives in the courtyard came forward to say hello.
Mrs. Li hurriedly greeted everyone, and went to see Mrs. Chen at the main seat.
This is the emperor’s nanny, and the necessary respect cannot be less.
The old lady Chen is very kind, and she is also very humble and kind, but her eyes flash occasionally, letting people know that this is a shrewd old lady: "Thank you for coming to my family's banquet, hurry up and sit down."
Ms. Chen was a little dissatisfied with the late arrival of Yan’s family, and smiled and accepted: “Yes, Mrs. Li, please take a seat quickly. Everyone is hungry. They are all waiting for you to sit down.”
Hearing this, Mrs. Li's brows suddenly frowned. Mrs. Chen's words were really uncomfortable, as if she was saying that she was wasting everyone's time.
Thinking of the emperor behind the Chen family, Mrs. Li endured the depression in her heart, and said nothing.
Ms. Li can bear it, but Daohua can’t bear it, she just said, “Please don’t blame Mrs. Chen. It will be my grandmother’s birthday in a few days. There are so many facts that the family has to be busy.”
"Our family only received the post yesterday afternoon. The preparation time was too short, so I was a little rushed today. If the next time Mrs. Chen posts the post, we can be a little earlier, we won't be late if we want to come."
As soon as these words came out, the yard suddenly became a little quieter.
The meaning of Daohua is very straightforward, and it is also obvious that there is a reason why they are late. It is because the Chen family is not attentive and did not post in advance, which caught people by surprise.
Ms. Chen’s face was a bit stiff, and the smile on her face was a little uncontrollable. She was used to rounding and innuendo speaking. When she encountered someone who said her thoughts directly, she didn't know how to deal with it for a while.
The old lady Chen looked at her daughter-in-law with a bit of hatred, and couldn't help regretting again in her heart, regretting that she had married her son such an unclear daughter-in-law.
Master Yan is the prefect of Ningmen Mansion. His son will definitely deal with other people in the future. He will offend him when he comes. How will he get along with him in the future?
My son knows that he doesn’t have much ability, so he is still loyal.
The emperor attaches great importance to gold mining. If this errand cannot be done beautifully, how will the Chen family gain a foothold in front of the emperor in the future?
You must know that the emperor never lacks capable people.
