After the Gu of the Red Chamber

Chapter 118 Engagement Banquet

Because of Wang Ren's return to Beijing and Wang Ren's constant challenge of Wang He's bottom line, the Wang family was really not peaceful, even to the point where Wang He had to send Wang Xiluan out for refuge.

Although Wang Xifeng also had some selfish intentions, she hoped that her elder brother could be the head of the next generation of the Wang family, but if she really wanted her to help her elder brother harm the second aunt, she didn't have the guts, and she couldn't do it, so she just stayed away from her and didn't help each other.

Regarding the second aunt asking her to take care of Xiluan, Wang Xifeng agreed without saying a word.

Originally, she didn't take it seriously. Although Wang Xiluan's body was a little weaker, there were many servants in the Rongguo Mansion, and she didn't need to give up. She didn't expect that when Wang Xiluan came, it wasn't just Wang Xiluan and the nanny. Just the little girl, but a whole room of people came.

Whether it's Xiluan's nanny, maidservant, big or small, and even a concierge who runs errands, if Wang Xiluan wants to buy something, he doesn't have to go through Rongguo Mansion, he just asks the concierge to buy it directly, and he goes to the Wang family. Damn, this posture is just staying in the Rongguo Mansion for a while!

Wang Xiluan's situation made many of the servants who wanted to gossip shut up in an instant. Don't think that bringing more servants is just a matter of one sentence, but it is comprehensive. It can be seen that he really put his heart into it. This shows how favored Wang Xiluan is in the Wang family.

It's okay to gossip about a child, but if it attracts the elders behind her, it's not a good thing, not to mention that the Wang family has always been famous for being eccentric, and Wang Ziteng has always been known for being domineering. Now that he is unconscious, no one dares to underestimate Wang Ziteng.

Inexplicably, the servants in the Rongguo Mansion became obedient, and served Wang Xiluan more carefully than their own master.

Even Wang Xifeng was secretly dumbfounded when she saw Wang Xiluan's battle. In the past, she only knew that the second uncle and second aunt were doting children, but it was not until she saw it with her own eyes that Wang Xifeng knew that the second uncle and second aunt were not ordinary doting children.

Ping'er couldn't help laughing and said: "The second wife and the second master are too careful, this Rongguo mansion is also the home of my relatives, so they need to be so careful."

It's also a good thing that Mr. She is not a fussy person. If he is placed in another house, there may be some disputes. After all, the children are the ones who love the children. It is somewhat disturbing to send so many people here suddenly.

"What do you know!" Wang Xifeng sighed, "This is my own."

She felt sour in her heart, she really deserves to be her own, and she was really careful in every way, for fear of wronging her own daughter. She thought that when she and her brother came all the way from Jinling to join their second uncle and second aunt, they also took the original Jinling home. The servants brought a lot over.

Then the second uncle and the second aunt dismissed most of the maids and servants around them on the grounds that they could not afford to support so many servants at home, but only left her and the elder brother's nanny and a few little maids, that's all. If they had a few capable people around them, perhaps the eldest brother would not be taught that way.

Wang Xifeng sighed slightly in his heart, suppressed the trace of unwillingness, and ordered: "You have a good time and beat the people in Xiluan's courtyard, and don't do anything to disgrace my Rongguo Mansion."

Well, so what if I envy Wang Xiluan?Those were her parents, not hers.

Ping'er smiled and said, "Don't worry, grandma, everyone is sleeping very well."

Seeing Wang Xifeng's gloomy expression, Ping'er quickly changed the subject and said, "Grandma, speaking of Miss Lin's engagement banquet, is there any regulations in the house?"

But I really didn't expect Miss Lin to be two years younger than Miss Yingchun, but she got engaged earlier than Miss Yingchun, and the betrothed was still Prince Li's son, with a bright future, no matter who she heard, she would be envious It's tight.

Speaking of which, the marriage has been bestowed by the Holy Majesty for a long time, and the engagement banquet was not held until now, "It's only natural." When it comes to Daiyu's marriage, Wang Xifeng also got a bit excited, Daiyu is also her own cousin, Hello Daiyu, Rongguo Mansion can also rise with the tide.

She ordered: "Of course, this ceremony must be prepared. Have you prepared the list?"

"It's already been drawn up!" Ping'er hurriedly sent the gift list, "This list was prepared by the elder himself, let alone, the elder really loves his niece."

When it came to the end, Ping'er was a bit envious.

Giving gifts is a science, just like buying a dowry. Those who are capable can naturally buy a bunch of dowry that is fancy but not worth a lot of money. Similarly, it is natural to buy something that is practical but not fancy enough. affordable dowry.

The Elder Master's dowry is the latter, although it may seem inconspicuous at first glance, but all of them are good things, and he will congratulate Miss Lin with these things, which shows that the Elder Master is really happy.

Faced with this unmistakable list of gifts, even Ping'er couldn't help being envious. This gift alone might be worth half of an ordinary family's dowry.

However, Ping'er also really felt that it was a bit weird. Speaking of it, although Miss Lin is the niece of the Grand Master, she has never met a few times in the past, and in detail, Miss Lin is only half a niece. Why did the elder give such a heavy gift?Always feel a bit weird!

But thinking about Miss Lin's husband's family, Ping'er is relieved. It doesn't matter whether Miss Lin is close or not, what matters is her future husband's family, which is the royal family, and anyone can climb it of.

Wang Xifeng looked at it, and nodded slightly, "My lord's gift list is pretty good."

Speaking of which, I don't know if the old lady really suppressed the elder too much. Since the old lady left, the elder has become more organized.

(Live Lei Feng Shu Gu is silent.)

Wang Xifeng pondered slightly, "Add the glazed screen in my dowry."

Ping'er was taken aback, a little bit reluctant, and whispered: "Grandma, that's your dowry!"

That glazed screen is a rare thing from the West, and it is not even a good thing in Rongguo Mansion.

Wang Xifeng said lightly: "Sister Daiyu is not married to an ordinary family. It's worth it!"

The Elder Master's list is practical, but not conspicuous enough. Their Rongguo Mansion finally had such a prominent relative, so naturally everyone should know about it.

In addition...

Wang Xifeng said with a smile: "Let someone buy some new clothes for Yingchun Haosheng, and make some jewelry. After all, she is the eldest girl of our Rongguo Mansion, so it can't be laughed at."

Jia Zheng's family was expelled from the clan, and even Yuanchun and Tanchun were no longer from the Rongguo Mansion, so Yingchun was no longer the second girl, but the only eldest girl.

Pulling Yingchun out to meet people and letting people know that Daiyu still has such a cousin is just the first step.

After Yingchun was brought up under the elder's lap, although the elder held Yingchun in his palm and loved her, his temperament was better than before, but his gentle and shy personality did not change much, and he was still extremely well-behaved.

Yingchun is different from the other girls in the Jia family. The girls of the Jia family are as bright and flamboyant as Tan Chunsheng, but Yingchun is gentle and amiable, and her temperament is even better. Although the daughter-in-law is a concubine, she is the only girl in the Rongguo Mansion. As long as the arrangements are made properly, Yingchun's future marriage will definitely not be bad.

Yingchun was Jia Lian's younger sister after all, and if Yingchun married well, it would be good for Jia Lian. Wang Xifeng thought about how to use Yingchun's marriage to bring up the Rongguo Mansion again.

Wang Xifeng secretly sighed, her future will be in the Rongguo Mansion after all, only when Jia Lian is good can she be good.

Not to mention that Wang Xifeng was preparing to make the Rongguo Mansion a big success, on the other hand, as the day of the engagement banquet got closer and closer to the Lin family and Prince Li's mansion, they also began to get busy.

Originally, Jia Min planned to have a small banquet at his own home, and told a few close relatives that it was, but Tu Lei was the grandson of the emperor, and neither Emperor Pingkang nor Tu Mingwen wanted to let his son have an engagement banquet. It just passed away quietly like this. No matter what you say, you have to hold a big banquet, and it has to be held in Prince Xinli's mansion.

For this matter, Jia Amnesty was forced to hurry up and complete the construction of Prince Li's Mansion before the engagement banquet.

Prince Li's Mansion was the Prince Fu's Mansion of the previous dynasty, covering a very large area. Even if Jia She, Jia Lian and others were too busy to touch the ground every day, they would almost take the Ministry of Industry as their home. After sorting it out, it's just barely enough to get in. As for the side courtyard, I don't care about anything.

As soon as Prince Li's mansion could barely accommodate people, Tu Mingwen couldn't wait to move out of Yuqing Palace with his family and officially move into Prince Li's mansion.

Don't look at it as an honor to live in Yuqing Palace. The crown prince would have no chance to live there, but only those who have lived there will understand that this palace is not a place for people to stay. Since Tu Mingwen was abolished, Yuqing In the Qing Palace, there were inexplicably more pairs of eyes. Everyone was out of breath under the invisible pressure, and could only count the days and wait for the holiday.

Finally, everyone finally came out, even Liu Guipin, whose son was robbed, looked a little more happy, let alone others.

The Crown Princess also asked people to tidy up the main courtyard. Although the palace is magnificent, it is the Forbidden City of the Holy Majesty after all, not theirs. In addition, the palace has its own rules, and she is not good at breaking the rules, so she has no choice but to follow the rules. Follow the rules.

This is really the first home that belongs to them. If there is no accident, they are afraid that they will live here for several years. Naturally, they came here because of their wishes.

Even Tu Lei moved directly from Shan Guogong's mansion back to Prince Li's mansion, perhaps to show off his personality, Tu Lei's yard is bigger than the yards of the two concubine brothers combined.

For this matter, the mother and concubine of the two concubine brothers often spoke bitter words in front of Tu Mingwen, but they were all sent away by Tu Mingwen.

Because Tu Lei was not raised under their knees since he was a child, there are inevitably some people who think about him in the palace, and they believe that he must be a child raised by their side, not a legitimate son sent outside. Regarding the matter of closing the city gate, many people decided that Tu Lei was not worthy of reuse, so they wanted to fish in troubled waters.

Tu Mingwen saw it in his eyes and kept it in his heart. Usually when he left Yuqing Palace, he placed Tu Lei in the largest courtyard in the mansion. On the one hand, it showed Tu Lei's unique identity, and on the other hand, it was easy for those people to understand , there is only one heir in his mind.

On the day of the engagement banquet, there were so many guests, and even Xia Dequan came to ask for a wedding wine in person, but he could get a glimpse of the Holy Majesty's intentions, but unexpectedly, the crown prince appeared!
