embarrassment for man and wife

In Qianqiu Songtang, there are not a few male guests, but none of these male guests is known by Zhuohua, but these people are dressed in luxurious clothes, and they don't look like the men and wives of those people's families at all. Of course, Zhuohua didn't have the guts to go forward and ask them if they were male wives from an adult's family. After a little hesitation, Zhuohua simply found a slightly secluded corner and sat down by himself. Zhuohua didn't know what the situation was.

In this banquet, the women's side should be all about flower appreciation and fun, but he doesn't know what the men's side is doing. He stays alone in the corner, and he doesn't even know which of the men's guests is the host's I don't know, I just saw from time to time, a young boy with a sullen face and the appearance of a little adult shuttled among the male guests. But he remembered that Ba Shao, who had disappeared still, had come.

Even though he was acquainted with Ba Shao and already knew his identity, but now Zhuohua discovered a problem, he...doesn't even know Ba Shao's name!

Rubbing his head, Zhuo Hua secretly thought, next time he sees Xie Junnan, he must ask him, what is the name of this Eighth Young Master!

"Zhuohua?"

Behind him, Zhuo Hua was startled by a familiar voice, he turned his head and saw Lian Ying, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, standing in front of him wearing a light purple shirt with a slightly pale face.

Zhuohua was shocked, and hurriedly stood up and pulled Lianying: "Lianying! You! Why are you here? Dongfang Qingming brought you here? What about others?".

Lian Ying smiled faintly: "The Seventh Highness is here, and he is now accompanying the Seventh Highness."

"Your Highness the Seventh?" Who is this His Highness the Seventh?But this doubt just flashed through Zhuohua's mind, he shook his head, looked at the person in front of him carefully, and couldn't help but frowned: "You...you seem to have lost weight...".

Lian Ying smiled faintly: "You have gained a lot of weight, looking at the baby fat on your face, it has become round."

Zhuohua was slightly embarrassed, and he coughed lightly: "I can eat more recently, but you..." After a little hesitation, Zhuohua still asked him: "Are you in good health?".

"Hmm..." Lian Ying just nodded lightly.

Seeing this, Zhuo Hua couldn't help asking more cautiously: "After my fourth brother and I left last time, Dongfang Qingming still... treats you well?".

"Good or bad, that's all it is." Lian Ying pretended to sigh with ease: "It's just that I'm bored." After a slight pause, Lian Ying suddenly remembered something, and asked again: "By the way, why are you here today?" Here? Xie Junnan brought you here?".

"No" Zhuo Hua said: "Fourth brother didn't come over, the county lord sent an invitation to my aunt yesterday, I have nothing to do today, so I came here with my aunt."

"Your mother?" Lian Ying was obviously taken aback: "Has your family all gone to Beijing?".

"Hmm... that's right!" Zhuo Hua's eyes lit up suddenly: "Do you know Wan Qixiu? He is my uncle. I live in my uncle's mansion now. When I get back, I will go to General Dongfang's mansion. Please come and follow me." How about staying for a while and relaxing?"

Hearing this, Lianying's eyes lit up in an instant, and she subconsciously exerted a little force on Zhuohua's hand: "Wan Qixiu? He just returned to the court not long ago, and the emperor's favorite general Wan Qixiu? Is he yours?" Uncle?"

Zhuo Hua nodded again and again: "That's him".

"Zhuohua! You...help me!".

The sudden prayer made Zhuohua startled. He stared at Lianying, and seeing Lianying's eyes turning red instantly, he couldn't help but feel a little suspicious. Dongfang Qingming's voice came: "What do you want Zhuohua to do for you?".

Zhuo Hua noticed that Lian Ying's expression froze instantly, and even her body tensed up.

Under the willow branches, Dongfang Qingming was dressed in white, with a handsome appearance, a slight smile on his mouth, and soft eyes, as if there was no gap between him and Lianying. Wrapping her hands lightly around Lianying's waist: "What's the matter, only Zhuohua can help you, but I can't help you, so you would rather speak to Zhuohua than to me? Huh?".

Lian Ying pursed her lips slightly, as if she hadn't figured out how to answer Dongfang Qingming.

Zhuo Hua was anxious when he saw it, and in his desperation, he didn't know what he was thinking of, and suddenly blurted out: "Don't talk about it, it's probably only I who can help him, you can't".

"Oh?" Dongfang Qingming chuckled, and the eyes that turned to look at Zhuohua were already filled with coldness: "I don't know what's going on?".

Zhuohua opened his eyes wide, stared at Dongfang Qingming and asked without answering: "I said, why are you people so annoying? I told Lianying some secrets, why do you have to ask so clearly? You have asked clearly, can you help me?" Lian Ying? Can you help Lian Ying take medicine, or help Lian Ying suffer?".

These words made Dongfang Qingming a little confused: "What do you mean?".

"What do you mean? Don't you want to help Lianying take medicine to recuperate her body? Or are you a brother who can actually help Lianying conceive?" Zhuohua asked back pretending to be sullen, and the question was extraordinarily confident.

Dongfang Qingming's eyes widened slightly, and the hand around Lianying's waist tightened a little.

"You..." Looking down at Lianying, Dongfang Qingming's throat seemed to be tense for a moment, and the words he wanted to say were just stuck in his throat, and it took a long time before he finally asked, "Are you...brother? ".

Lian Ying froze and tensed, she pursed her lips, not daring to answer.

Zhuo Hua watched, but he was busy helping Lian Ying: "If Lian Ying is a brother, why would she ask me for help? Are you stupid?".

Dongfang Qingming ignored Zhuohua, her lowered eyes were silently locked on Lianying, as if she wanted him to answer in person.

Zhuo Hua looked at it, fearing that Lian Ying would not be able to realize his words, he sighed again and said with a look of helplessness: "Just now I was talking to Lian Ying, in our village, there was a boy who disregarded his family's objections. , got married to another kid, and I don’t know what kind of medicine he took later. No one in the village believed that the good boy was pregnant. Later, it was not until the two of them really gave birth to a fat boy. The family reconciled again, Lianying found it unbelievable to hear that, so she wanted me to help him, to see if he could find out, what kind of medicine did the kid eat to conceive, but I think it is unlikely, [-]% It's that kid himself who is a brother, but he doesn't know it, but Lianying... hey..." What Zhuo Hua said later seemed to be false, so he deliberately sighed and didn't say anything.

And this kind of reluctance to speak made Dongfang Qingming's heart even more turbulent, and even the eyes that looked at Lianying completely changed their appearance.

"You..." It seemed that nothing could compare to the beating of the heart at this moment, and Dongfang Qingming didn't know how to react for a while.

Lian Ying sighed softly, as if she already knew how to respond. He lowered his eyelids, and his long eyelashes, like fluttering wings, flew into Dongfang Qingming's heart in a flash.

"I wish I was still thinking about it, so I won't tell you..." Then give him a fright to scare him to death, it's best!

But Dongfang Qingming believed it was true, he couldn't hide his excitement, and he didn't care where he was at the moment, so he hugged Lianying tightly in his arms: "Lianying...you...you have me in your heart... ...do you? You...you don't want to make up with me? Do you?".

is not it……

Lian Ying just let him hug her, rolling her throat a few times, but she didn't answer after all, she just nodded silently.

Seemingly answering but not answering.

However, this alone made Dongfang Qingming extremely happy.

Zhuo Hua could see clearly from the side, while Lian Ying's downcast eyes were only showing indifference, without any love at all, even the vitality and light from the first acquaintance were gone.

Lianying...has changed...

But did Dongfang Qingming know?

Although Zhuohua guessed, he couldn't feel any sympathy for Dongfang Qingming. As long as he thought of Lianying's appearance crying and begging for himself that night, Zhuohua's heart would also feel faint pain. Probably, the vase back then, Not only did he kill the unknown child in Lianying's womb, but he probably also killed the "Calendula" back then, right?

Outside Qianqiu Songtang, there was a middle-aged man dressed in fine clothes. He stepped forward, raised his hand slightly towards the people in the courtyard, and then opened his mouth to attract everyone's attention. It probably means that the banquet has already begun, and everyone is invited to come. Enter the garden.

Dongfang Qingming listened, with a smile in his eyes, took Lianying's hand, and led Lianying to follow the crowd and the man carefully, and left here.

Standing in place, Zhuohua saw Lianying had no choice but to follow Dongfang Qingming's figure, he let out a long sigh, and became more and more determined in his heart, he wanted to use his uncle's name to bring Lianying to live in the general's mansion of Zhenjun!

Entering the garden, there are more people here, but there is a distinction between male and female seats, Zhuohua is next to Lianying, and Lianying is next to Dongfang Qingming, he sits there alone, seeing that Lianying is only sitting on himself Zhuo Hua sighed lightly and touched his hand: "Don't think about it, what are you thinking about those useless things now?"

Lian Ying only looked at him, and shook her head slightly.

Zhuohua touched him again: "Hey, look, the one next to the county lord in front is my aunt."

Lian Ying raised her head curiously upon hearing the sound.

Zhuohua pointed to the two girls beside Chen and said: "Those two girls who look exactly the same are my younger sisters, Xiaoyue and Xiaoliu."

"They..." Lian Ying was slightly surprised: "Exactly the same?".

"Yeah, they are twins, so they are exactly the same." Zhuo Hua wanted to help him divert his thoughts, so he whispered to him about his sister.

Dongfang Qingming has obviously been in high spirits since leaving Qianqiu Songtang. Seeing Lianying and Zhuohua sitting together and whispering to each other, he had a doting smile in his eyes, and he didn't stop the two of them from following along. The two of them passed by.

At the banquet, occasionally a dancer came forward to perform, the petals flew away, the sleeves fluttered, and the sound of silk and bamboo was so unpleasant, but it was as if Zhuo Hua and Lian Ying had never seen them before. When someone called his name suddenly, he raised his head suspiciously and looked towards the opposite side.

The person who called his name was a noble lady whom he didn't know. The noble lady wore a red hairpin on her head, and she was wearing luxurious, exquisitely painted makeup. The corners of her eyes were slightly elongated. Judging by her age, Mo Yue was just in her early twenties, and her eyes were burning. When Hua looked up, she smiled faintly and said: "Looking at Mrs. Xie's appearance, I guess I don't want to see this kind of dance music. I heard that Mrs. Xie and Mr. Xie got married, which almost caused a sensation in the capital. It must be Mrs. Xie." It is so rare to see it today, Madam Xie might as well show off her talents, let me wait for everyone, how about opening your eyes?".

Zhuo Hua frowned.

At the corner, another person also spoke: "What Mrs. Zhang said, since it's a show of talent, wouldn't it be monotonous to invite only Mrs. Xie alone? Coincidentally, my brother-in-law is also here today, so it's better to let the two of them How about playing together, taking care of each other and showing off to each other?"

These words made Lianying's eyes instantly cold, and also made the county head above frown slightly, but as the host, she was not very good at brushing the face of the guests, and she was unhappy in her heart, never thought that Zhuohua would actually reply .

"Thank you two ladies for looking up to me, but I'm already married. I'd better leave this kind of publicity to other ladies and wits." Zhuohua smiled, and said in a straightforward voice: "Although I am a brother, I don't have to suffer too much." I don’t want to be restrained, but I should also know my identity. I will not participate in this kind of opportunity to show my talents, so as not to delay others, which is not good.”

In a word, it was straightforward, and the faces of the two of them were slightly stiff when they returned directly, and the handkerchiefs in their hands under the table were stirred into a ball!

Show your face!

What a show!

There is an unwritten rule in the capital, but on such occasions, when these wives and ladies look at each other's future daughter-in-law and son-in-law, if there is any coincidence, they may have to gain a good reputation. ... On such an occasion, Zhuohua was stunned to show his face and slapped him on the ground!

Who dares to show their talents?Don't gain a reputation by then, instead of gaining a reputation of being ignorant of the rules in public!
