One of the Red Buildings: Three Thousand Miles

Chapter 66

Decorated with lanterns and festoons, Du Shu's sedan chair was sent from Du's house to Lin's mansion.

Lin Ruhai was dressed in a wedding dress, and stood at the door to greet her.Master Shi took Hou Xuan aside as relatives of the Lin family.In the inner house, because Mrs. Shi was pregnant, she couldn't meet the guests even if she showed up, so Xuanxuan and Daiyu Moxuan took over the task of meeting guests.

Mo Xuan was dressed in a new pink dress, her little face was flushed. She was good looking and had a sweet mouth. After learning the rules, she also knew some things about Beijing and China, so she could easily meet a bunch of wives.Xuanxuan was still busy without touching the ground, but a few acquaintances greeted with a smile and hurried to other things.When Daiyu saw this, she felt angrily, grabbed Xuanxuan who was passing by, and complained, "You also have a rest, take a look, the limelight that should belong to you is gone. You are so determined, you don't want to do things. Let someone say hello."

Xuanxuan was happy, "I don't feel bad, why are you in a hurry? Besides, I don't like to do this tricky work. Besides, if I'm not busy, if something goes wrong, embarrassment is more than just embarrassment. Uncle’s family, do you think it’s better for me to ask for a few good words in the past, or to pay more attention to that important matter?”

Daiyu couldn't be more angry than Mo Xuan was showing off at Lin Ruhai's wedding. Seeing what Xuanxuan said, she put it aside and went about her own business.

Fortunately, Xuanxuan asked Mrs. Shi to entrust those familiar wives to come earlier to help greet her, otherwise, Mo Xuan alone would not be able to take care of everything.

Finally, someone came in from outside, saying that they had paid homage to heaven and earth, and that the bride had already been sent to the bridal chamber, and the ladies were invited to come over.

Xuanxuan and Daiyu would naturally go to this matter, and hurriedly followed, there were already many wives standing in the room looking at the bride.Du Shu is not stunning, her beauty is extremely ordinary.But he was still praised and said that he looked good, which was great.These are all polite words.Until someone said the words "I don't know if I have to bow to the elder sister tomorrow morning", the new house fell silent immediately.

Xuanxuan frowned slightly, because she was not in good spirits, she had something on her mind, she didn't pay attention to it just now, suddenly seeing the sudden silence in the room, she couldn't help pulling herself together, and raised her eyes to look at Daiyu.

Daiyu's eyes were full of sadness. In her eyes, her biological mother and stepmother were naturally much closer to Jia Min.

Xuanxuan sighed slightly in her heart, and raised a big smile, "My aunt has entered the house, and my mother will be able to relax in the future. The niece is here to thank my aunt."

When Xuanxuan said this, the ladies in the room seemed to press the play button, and all of a sudden they became active again.Teased Du Shu one sentence after another, but there was no more excessive words, because before he said a few words, someone said back that the virtuous king and concubine came to celebrate.At this moment, all the ladies couldn't sit still, and ran forward after saying a few polite words.The Xianwang couple are the existences that ordinary people in the capital can't curry favor with. They are also the uncles of the current emperor. Parents have never seen anything.Now, to be able to meet him while eating Lin's wedding wine, isn't it a great chance?

But some people wondered, it was just Lin Ruhai marrying his step-wife, and many family members of senior officials did not come, most of them were family members of officials who were closer in the past or whose status was not as high as Lin Ruhai's.

After inquiring about what Hou Xuan said when King Xian pulled him, everyone realized.The father-in-law wants to see his daughter-in-law, so how can there be different levels of occasions?

However, the appearance of Concubine Xian immediately made the wives and wives more honest, and Xuanxuan finally knew who said the bad words just now.

Wang Xifeng, Xuanxuan decided to represent Lin and Shi's family and was deeply moved by the fact that the Jia family could still send someone over, and Wang Xifeng was still the head of the family.It's just that it's one thing to be moved in the heart, and Xuanxuan decided to go to the reception in person.

"I don't know that my sister-in-law has arrived in person. I hope my sister-in-law will forgive me for not being very entertaining." Xuanxuan said with a smile.

Wang Xifeng was standing in an obscure place observing Concubine Xian, when she suddenly saw Xuanxuan approaching, she hurriedly said with a smile, "Your sister's words are polite. They are all from my own family. After all, today is my uncle’s happy event. Even my aunt’s spirit in heaven will be very happy. No, our ancestors talked about it for a long time, and they called me over last night. They didn’t want to come here in person for everything, but it happened. You told me a lot about things yesterday, and I was a little tired, and my head hurt a little before I came here this morning. But that’s it, I must be sent over to congratulate you.”

Xuanxuan squatted down and gave Wang Xifeng a blessing, "Then Xuanxuan will thank the old lady on behalf of uncle and aunt."

Wang Xifeng unhurriedly helped Xuanxuan to get up, and praised, "You are my younger sister, at such a young age, look at this battle, how well you have taken care of the table. Whoever wants to marry you in the future will have to marry you." It's about time."

Xuanxuan pretended to be angry, and gently shook her sleeves with a tigerish face, "Sister-in-law is used to talking nonsense, I don't care about you, I'll go over to see other things."

Wang Xifeng pursed her lips and smiled, turned around and went to chat with other people.

When Mrs. Shi heard that Princess Xian was coming, she was also helped out.Xuanxuan hurried over to support Mrs. Shi, obediently waiting in front of Mrs. Shi.Mo Xuan hesitated, thinking about it but didn't want others to see her enthusiastic wife's side. Just as he was hesitating, his wife had already pulled Xuanxuan to the front of Princess Xian.

"The concubine came here in person, it really gave our family great face." Because she was about to get married, Mrs. Shi spoke respectfully but not alienated, and even had a touch of intimacy.

Concubine Xian liked this feeling very much, she pulled Xuanxuan warmly, and then took Mrs. Shi's hand to look at her complexion carefully, she couldn't help nodding, "What are you doing here, isn't it that you have been heavy lately, it's hard for you? .Our family is not an outsider, so it is worthwhile for you to come out in person. However, looking at this complexion, it is much better than before. At this time, we should be careful."

Mrs. Shi said with a smile, "It's so weak that the wind is so weak. Besides, you are here on such a festive day, why should I lie down and listen to you?"

Concubine Xian pointed at Mrs. Shi and smiled at Xuanxuan, "Look, it's your mother who likes to make noise after a long time. But it's tiring for you. She's not feeling well, and she's just taking a break. It's all because of you. The most difficult thing is to be courteous, and there is nothing wrong with it, don’t you think so?”

Concubine Xian even spoke, and naturally there was a lot of good voices.Hence, in the following time, the focus of most wives' discussions was how capable the second daughter of the Shi family was, how well she managed the family, and she didn't like to show off, her low-key style won a lot of praise.I believe that once today is over, everyone in the capital tomorrow will know that the Shi family has an outstanding second daughter, Shi Xuanxuan.

Mo Xuan gritted her silver teeth, her chest was full of anger, there was nothing she could do, who made her hesitate for a while, and didn't run to Mrs. Shi to perform the scene of a mother's kindness and daughter's filial piety. As a result, Xuanxuan got this reputation .Why didn't she think about it, even if she ran over, Princess Xian would not praise her.Mrs. Shi's biological daughter is Xuanxuan, and Princess Xian's future son-in-law is Xuanxuan's own brother. With such an obvious relationship, who would let Xuanxuan say nothing and instead speak nice things about her?Besides, how could the Prince Xian's mansion, who had been inquiring about the situation of the Haoshi family, not know that Mo Xuan, the eldest daughter of a concubine, was not embarrassed but unwilling to be lonely?

Fortunately, after many days of education, Mo Xuan did not show her dissatisfaction, but a stern look flashed in her eyes, and then she hid it, and continued chatting with the wives around her with a smile on her face.

It can be said that Xuanxuan put a lot of effort into the wedding banquet. She had tasted every dish beforehand, not to mention the brilliant ones, but she would never go wrong.Although some maids accidentally broke the cups during the period, because Xuanxuan had put in a lot of effort when selecting people in advance, these maids who served in front of people were all clever, and when they saw a broken cup, they picked it up quietly. At the same time, he would whisper a crime to the wives who disturbed him.Today is a happy event, so naturally no one will take this kind of thing seriously.

All in all, this sequel of Lin Ruhai's was not overly lively by Xuanxuan.

Sending off the last batch of guests, Xuanxuan was supported by Brother Qing and returned to the room to rest. She will wait for tomorrow to talk about everything. She no longer wants to go there again. She has a severe headache. pillow, and fell asleep drowsily.

"Sleeping?" Hou Xuan came over purposely and asked outside the door.

Brother Qing nodded, pointed inside and whispered, "Young lady is really tired, she dozed off on the way back. She is fast asleep now."

Hou Xuan nodded, carefully explained that he should pay more attention at night, then turned and left.

Passing by the study, seeing that the light was still on, he knocked on the door and entered.At that time, the master was holding a teapot and reading a book.Seeing that it was Hou Xuan who came in, he put down his book and asked, "Why don't you go to rest, it's so late, you don't have time today."

Lin Ruhai is so powerful that it's too late to flatter him, who would make fun of him.On the contrary, Hou Xuan, because it was the holy decree to bestow the marriage, on the contrary, many people made fun of him today.Hou Xuan circled around and was not very disturbed.

Hou Xuan shook his head with a smile, "I've been used to it for a long time, but Dad, after a tiring day, why doesn't he take a rest now, but reads in the study instead."

Master Shi took a sip of his tea, "I just came from your mother, she said that Concubine Xian dragged her to say a lot of things today, all of which meant the same thing. I believe you understand." Master Shi raised his eyes and looked at Hou Xuan , that look is very clear, he thinks, Hou Xuan can understand.

Hou Xuan nodded, "Father and mother's worries will be saved for my son. Therefore, my son now hopes to find a job outside." In this way, whether the princess follows him or stays, it is very important for Mr. and Mrs. Shi. There are benefits.After leaving with Hou Xuan, Emperor Gao was far away that day. If the princess is not good-tempered, Hou Xuan will naturally know, and when he comes back later, he will have time to plan whether to live together or buy a property nearby and separate.Vice versa, if the princess stays, Mrs. Shi will naturally help Hou Xuan observe the character of his daughter-in-law, and there will be room for whether to pull her out to live alone or continue together.

only……

"I'm afraid it's not that simple if you want to go out." Master Shi shook his head and said with a smile, Hou Xuan was still immature.
