Abduct a general to farm

Cuixiu got Xue Rouzhi's instruction to bring Mo Ran to the garden when the time was about to come. She saw that the weather was about the same, and the guests should be all there, so she took Mo Ran to the garden, and happened to meet the guests.

Mo Ran looked at a few young women and saw that their attire seemed to be very formal, and thinking about today's situation, he suddenly realized, he said why the servants were so diligent today, it turned out that they were holding a banquet.

He looked at his clothes in embarrassment, as if he was dressed casually, not suitable for appearing at a banquet.

When he was hesitating whether to go back and change clothes, the people on the opposite side were also looking at him, as if they were amazed by his appearance, everyone just stood where they were, and didn't rashly talk to Mo Ran.

On the contrary, Shang Shu's girlfriend asked kindly: "May I ask which family's daughter is the girl? It seems a bit unfamiliar. Are you also invited to the banquet at the General's Mansion?"

The person behind tugged at her sleeve and said, "She doesn't seem to be from the capital."

The one who spoke was Guo Zitong, the only daughter of the Taiwei, because she knew all the ladies in the capital, and Mo Ran was obviously not on her face.

They seemed to have no malice towards him, Mo Ran said awkwardly: "I'm from Yunyang City."

"Yunyang City!" Guo Zitong exclaimed, causing everyone to stare, only to hear her remind: "That woman, it was rumored a few days ago that the general brought an unknown woman back to his residence."

No matter how low her voice was, Mo Ran, who was not far away, still heard it, and smiled awkwardly but politely, wondering if everyone in the capital knew of his existence.

Because Mo Ran stayed in the General’s Mansion all the time and never went out. Although they had heard about it, they couldn’t think of it for a while. After hearing Guo Zitong’s reminder, they let out a sigh of relief, and looked at Mo Ran again. The eyes are not so friendly. Because they all like Jiang Jingjiu, they are rivals in love with Mo Ran.

Zhang Pinshu's personality is rather carefree, and he immediately jumped out and declared war on Mo Ran: "Even if you live in the general's mansion, as long as Aunt Xue hasn't recognized you, the general still belongs to all of us, don't be complacent."

Of course, she didn't know that Xue Rouzhi would soon slap her in the face for her words, because at the banquet, Xue Rouzhi not only admitted to Mo Ran, but even this banquet was specially held for Mo Ran, celebrating Mo Ran's birthday. I also want him to show his face in front of everyone, as the general's wife, to express that his son already has a partner, and others should not think about it.

Seeing the stagnation and embarrassment in the atmosphere, the steward humbly reminded that it was getting late.

Mo Ran, who was not complacent at all, knew that they couldn't take his lover away, and didn't care about them, so he just smiled and said goodbye, and didn't worry about going back, and followed Cuixiu to the garden.

But in the eyes of Zhang Binshu, Mo Ran's smile was a provocation to her, laughing at her overthinking, and was so angry that she almost chased after her and scolded her. Fortunately, she was stopped by the little sister and reminded to pay attention to etiquette clam down.

All the people on the invitation list came together, and the servants guarding the door were about to close the door, but a low-key carriage stopped at the door belatedly.

The servant who was about to close the door stopped and looked at the carriage hesitantly, thinking that he had missed someone on the list.

It wasn't until the visitor got off the carriage that he realized that he hadn't missed it, and the visitor was not on the list.

Mrs. Lin, with weak willows supporting the wind and a pale face, got out of the carriage with the help of her maid, walked up to the servants, smiled softly, and said in a soft voice that could be blown away by a gust of wind:

"It's a joke to come here uninvited. I am Mrs. Lin, the third prince's concubine. I heard that the General's Mansion hosted a birthday party today, so I came here to congratulate you. Could you let me know?"

She stood at the door, speaking softly and politely, the servant hesitated for a moment, and gave another person a wink, and that person immediately ran in cleverly.

Mrs. Lin saw this and gratefully thanked the servant who closed the door. Mrs. Lin was very beautiful, although she was not as good as the general's wife, but she had a pair of smoky eyebrows, two affectionate eyes, her face was like a delicate flower, and her appearance of a weak willow and Fufeng was also attractive. Pity, forced the servant to blush.

Before waiting for the servant's reply, Jiang Jingjiu came back from the outside. He was about to enter the mansion directly when he saw Mrs. Lin's face. He paused and asked expressionlessly:

"Are you from the Third Prince?"

Mrs. Lin nodded and said that she was fine in the mansion, so she came to the banquet.

However, Jiang Jingjiu knew that unless the Third Prince ordered, this sick Mrs. Lin would seldom leave the mansion. Since she became the Third Prince's concubine, this Mrs. Lin basically stayed in her own yard.

"Let her in." After saying this, he hurried in, and the servants hurriedly let people in and closed the door.

The garden was really lively. When Mo Ran arrived, Xue Rouzhi was talking to his good sister. There were several tables set up in the big pavilion for guests to sit.

Although there were a lot of people, Xue Rouzhi saw Mo Ran as soon as he entered, because Mo Ran was so outstanding, even if he was only wearing ordinary clothes, he could still compare with the brightly dressed people, attracting all eyes.

She beckoned Mo Ran to come to her side, and said to Mrs. Shangshu with a smile: "This is Mo Ran, the host of today's banquet is also the person my son likes."

Mrs. Shangshu praised kindly: "As expected, you are really well-behaved, and you are very suitable for the general, but I didn't expect you to announce it at this banquet. My daughter will probably make a fuss when she hears it."

Xue Rouzhi covered her mouth and said with a smile: "It can only be said that your daughter and my son are destined to have nothing to do, and Xiaoshu will be sad."

"It's okay, she'll just go back and cry a few times. This little girl is from Yunyang City, right?"

"That's right, when Ajiu was injured and somehow ran to Yunyang City, he still saved Ajiu's life, so Ajiu agreed with his body." Xue Rouzhi said, emphasizing in disguise what Mo Ran had in Jiang Jingjiu's heart important position.

"In ancient times, there were heroes who saved the beauties, but now it is the beauties who save the heroes. With such kindness, my little book has no chance at all." Mrs. Shangshu said regretfully.

Xue Rouzhi comforted: "There are many talented sons in the capital, and Xiaoshu doesn't have to hang my son to death. I think Ajiu's bad temper can only be tolerated."

What she didn't say was that Ajiu had a bad temper in front of others, but it was different in front of Mo Ran. He smiled like a flower when facing Mo Ran.

Although Mrs. Shangshu pretended to be generous and said that her daughter and Jiang Jingjiu were not suitable for a long time, but her daughter had been unrequitedly in love with each other for so long but there was no result, and she was robbed by others. My own daughter sucks as well.

Hearing what Xue Rouzhi said at this time was quite helpful, and comforted himself that Xiaoshu might not be able to stand Jiang Jingjiu's indifference even if he got married, so it's better to find another good relationship, this time facing Mo Ran is the real kindness.

After the group of girls came over, they walked to their mother, and Zhang Pinshu also walked to Mrs. Shangshu. When she saw Mo Ran sitting next to Xue Rouzhi, she froze in her footsteps, her face was a little worried, and she stared at Mo Ran fiercely. , but in the end he sat down next to his mother.

As soon as the banquet started, a long line of servants brought plates and served sumptuous dishes to several tables of guests in an orderly manner. Jiang Jingjiu finally arrived, ignoring other people's gazes and sitting directly next to Mo Ran.

Mrs. Lin walked slowly, a step behind Jiang Jingjiu, and walked up to Xue Rouzhi. Seeing her, Xue Rouzhi looked a little surprised, glanced at her son, and let her sit at his table.

Facing the strangeness on other people's faces, Mrs. Lin ignored it frankly, and sat opposite Mo Ran with neither humility nor condescension. Seeing Mo Ran looking at her, she smiled friendlyly.

The banquet started, because all the people he invited were friends he was familiar with, Xue Rouzhi just said a few words on the occasion, and then said with a smile on his face: "This is the first time I hold a banquet at my house, in fact, I would like to invite everyone to join me in holding this banquet today. The most important thing is to celebrate Ranran's birthday."

She reached out to Mo Ran, thinking that Mo Ran, who had nothing to do with her, was cueed inexplicably, and stood up blankly, not understanding how the protagonist of this banquet became herself.

While holding Mo Ran's hand with a soft, boneless, delicate skinned hand, Xue Rouzhi made Jiang Jingjiu also stand up, took his hand and intertwined two hands, one big and one small, to show In front of everyone.

The faces of the girls present who were interested in Jiang Jingjiu all changed when they saw this, their hands holding the chopsticks were shaking, and they heard Xue Rouzhi keep holding their hands and say:

"At the same time, I also want to show off to everyone that my son, who is not enlightened, has finally found someone who is willing to spend his life with him. Although she is not from the capital, and her status is not as distinguished as those present, she is my daughter-in-law. "

She glanced at Jiang Jingjiu.

Jiang Jingjiu only said one sentence: "This is my wife."

Directly swearing the sovereignty, cutting off her desire to compete with others, the daughter of Shangshu, Zhang Bingshu, was originally pale, but now she just looked at Jiang Jingjiu in a daze, her eyes seemed a little sad.

Xue Rouzhi let go of his hand and let the two of them hold it by themselves. He said with a smile, "I will give you another invitation when Ajiu and Ranran get married. Let's all try the cooking skills of our house cook today."

She moved the chopsticks, and everyone moved the chopsticks accordingly, but their expressions were different, but there was no doubt that the eyes staring at Mo Ran were complicated.

Being stared at by so many women with complex emotions, Mo Ran felt a little uncomfortable, Jiang Jingjiu turned his head, held his hand and never let go, and said in a voice that only two people could hear: "Don't pay attention to them. "

Mo Ran pursed his lips, leaned closer and asked: "I remember that my birthday doesn't seem to be on this day. Could it be that you guys remembered it wrong?"

How embarrassing it would be if they gave him the wrong birthday, but of course he wouldn't tell if it was wrong.

Jiang Jingjiu had a slight smile in his eyes, lightly squeezed the soft flesh of his palm and said, "That's right, it was September 27th. Your uncle told me that your grandma made a mistake."

Uncle... It seems that Mo Ran hasn't seen his uncle for a long time. Jiang Jingjiu seemed to know what he was thinking, and explained: "Your uncle has something to go out recently, and he will be back home tomorrow. You can go to him then. .”

After getting along for a period of time, Mo Ran found that his uncle was very interesting, and a few wisps of smiles appeared on his face inadvertently. The bright smile dazzled the eyes of several young girls for a while, and he was originally jealous of the two of them whispering intimately. They were whispering and were defeated just because of a smile, thinking that they are not as good-looking as Mo Ran, and they can't blame Jiang Jingjiu for looking down on him.

Even Mrs. Lin was taken aback by his smile, with a nostalgic expression on her face, but she immediately lowered her head to cover it up, thinking that no one noticed her moving face, but she didn't know that her every move was being watched by Jiang Jingjiu Down.

Probably impressed by Mo Ran's smile, the atmosphere in the later part of the banquet became a little lighter. Finally, everyone stopped staring at the protagonist of the banquet, but seriously ate the food.

After the meal, Xue Rouzhi asked the servants to bring out a big cake, which was much bigger than what Mo Ran used to make for Grandma Mo's birthday, and blooming roses were carved out of cream on it.

"What is this?" Someone exclaimed: "I don't seem to have seen this kind of dessert, did the cooks here research it?"

For some reason, the branch of Nine Heavens Restaurant in Beijing has not released cakes for so long, so many people in Beijing don't know what cakes are.

Xue Rouzhi smiled softly: "This is a cake. A birthday cake is a blessing for those who celebrate their birthday. This cake was not researched by the cook in my house, but taught by my daughter-in-law Ranran. She, I can make a lot of food, and cake is one of them. Come and make a wish first.”

Mo Ran taught Xue Rouzhi to make a wish before eating the cake, and to light a candle before making a wish.

Everyone watched today's birthday star make a wish, blow out the candles, and then cut the cake with Jiang Jingjiu holding hands, divided it into equal parts and distributed them to everyone.

Most women love to eat sweets. After eating Mo Ranche's cake, more than half of the women quickly developed a good impression of him and gathered around him to ask him how to make the cake. However, under Jiang Jingjiu's cold eyes, they retreated steadily. Dare to go forward, suddenly feel that Jiang Jingjiu is not so attractive to them.

Fortunately, Xue Rouzhi guessed that they would like it a long time ago, and ordered the cook to make many cakes, and let them take home one cake at a time.

The insignificant Mrs. Lin took the cake Mo Ran handed over, and suddenly stopped Mo Ran when he turned around: "Miss Mo."

At that time, Jiang Jingjiu happened to be called by his mother to do something, Mo Ran turned around and asked doubtfully, "What is it?"

Mrs. Lin said: "I like you very much, I want to make friends with you, is that okay?"

make friends?

Mo Ran knew very well that she and himself had no intersection at all, even if they met today, it was the first time they spoke, and it really didn't meet the standard of making friends.

Mo Ran didn't say whether he agreed or disagreed, he just smiled and said, "Mrs. Lin is welcome to come and play with me often."

Mrs. Lin blinked her eyes and laughed, she nodded and agreed: "In that case, I will come to you more often in the future, I hope Ms. Mo will not reject me."
