Chapter 46: The Fourth Master Is Back (2)
As he spoke, he walked into the main hall, smiled and saluted a few people, and then sat down at the head of Erfu with half a bow, and Wang sat at the bottom of Igger.
The ladies in the house arrived, and the Wulanala clan had already changed into a cheongsam with splendid peony flowers, combed a shelf on her head, and helped Mama Fu out.
After a few brief greetings, the Ulanala clan ordered someone to pass the meal.
Erf disliked such occasions the least, because she could not fill her stomach at all. It's not that there are big rules in the house, but Erfu has had this problem since he was a child, and when he is with unfamiliar people, he always feels that he can't eat, and the food here in Fujin is biased towards the taste of the Manchurians, even if it is a vegetarian dish, you can see pieces of beef and mutton.
When she lived in the 21st century, Erf was able to avoid sharing a table with strangers, and her friends knew about her, even if she didn't use chopsticks, they wouldn't find fault with her.
But now that he has traveled to the Qing Dynasty more than 200 years ago, this problem has become a little conspicuous, and Erfu can only squeeze out a smiling face for fear of being grabbed by the pigtails, chewing slowly and eating dishes he doesn't like to eat.
Fortunately, the people present at this dinner are all people in the house, and there are no outsiders, and the big guys can still gossip, but it makes Erfu not like to use chopsticks very much, and it is not particularly conspicuous.
The dinner ended quickly, because the big guys still need to go back to rest before they can have the energy to cope with the moon viewing banquet in the evening, of course, this is the result of Erf's own YY.
Erfu followed the flow and returned to his small courtyard, shook the bottom of the flower pot under his feet with a glare, and leaned lazily on the couch, looking at the full moon that had crawled out of the window with some sadness.
Yuqing thought that his side Fujin was missing his family, so he gossiped and tried to divert Erfu's attention.
Erfu looked at Yuqing's efforts to find a topic, her heart warmed, and she said: "It's the Mid-Autumn Festival today, and you can't meet your family, and you will also set up a table in the courtyard for a while, and take out the moon cakes and melons and fruits sent from the dining room, and you can also enjoy the moon and loosen your body!"
When the people who were waiting in the room heard this, they immediately made a blessing and thanked them repeatedly.
Erf waved his hand indifferently and continued to look out the window.
Joyful and cozy times are always fleeting.
Erf only felt that it was only a blink of an eye, and it was already time for the moon feast in the evening.
Yuqing and Yujie discussed, arranged a few maids to stay in the yard, and hurried to the main room, and once again picked up Erfu, who was lying on the bed.
Erfu was wearing a moon-white embroidered lotus-embroidered wide-sleeved cheongsam, with lace embedded in the cuffs and neckline, a formal shelf combed on her head, a lotus-shaped hairpin with white jade petals and pink jade stamens on a plain silver tray, and a plain silver gold wire embedded with a finger-sized pearl in the middle of the hairpin, and the lotus walked out of the main room lightly.
Yuqing and Yulan followed, leaving Yujie and Yubing staring at the courtyard, and then walked towards the location of the moon viewing banquet.
The moon viewing banquet was arranged in the water pavilion where Erfu had been today, but during the day, there were a few more translucent silk screens, burning incense to repel mosquitoes and insects.
A large rosewood lacquered round table sits in a pavilion jutting out of the lake, and next to it are several upholstered hoop chairs. The table top is covered with a satin tablecloth embroidered with delicate patterns, and in several pastel-colored high-foot plates, all kinds of small moon cakes with exquisite workmanship are neatly arranged, and several large glazed fruit plates are placed with seasonal fruits.
Erfu came not early or late, and followed the little maid to the pavilion on the water pavilion, sipping tea slightly, looking at the full moon that had not yet completely climbed into the middle of the sky.
Several other female dependents also arrived one after another, and the Li family led the second Ge Mo Yaqi and the second elder brother Hongyu, followed by the Wulanala clan and the eldest elder brother Honghui, and came to the pavilion together.
This is the first time that Erfu has entered the mansion, and he has seen the Li family and the Wulanala clan of Changfu Jin entering and leaving the same place, and he is a little curious to take a few more looks.
The Ulanara clan sat down with a smile, sitting with Honghui at his hand, and then sat next to Honghui, and Ergege sat in a seat away from Honghui.
When Erfu couldn't understand what the Li mother and son were messing with, a maid stepped forward to sit for her.
I don't know if this seat has been lined up several times beforehand, but the maid didn't hesitate at all, and led Erfu to sit on the other side of the Ulanala clan.
Li sat between Hongyu and Mo Yaqi, smiling a little more sincerely and kindly than before.
The three highest-ranking ladies in the house sat down, and the positions of the others were more casual, the Song family had given birth to Da Gege, although Da Gege died early, but compared to the other two Gege, who had not given birth to Gege, they also had two faces, and sat at the bottom of Erfu, similar to Hongyu's position.
Igege is from the Manchu military banner, and he is more valuable than Wang Gege, sitting at the bottom of Song Gege, and Wang Gege is sitting in the last position, but because it is a round table, it is not obvious.
Erfu sat at the table, and also noticed a detail, when he came to the road, he actually erected a screen, compared with the screens in several other directions, the workmanship is more exquisite, the materials are more expensive, and the transparency is also a little worse.
Seeing that everyone was seated, Wulanala asked the maid who was waiting on the side to fill several female relatives with wine, and gave milk to the little brother and Xiao Gege, and said with a cup: "Today is a happy day for the family, and our lord has not forgotten us when he goes out, and a few days ago, he let people pass the word back, saying that he was on the way back again."
The fourth master also specially asked us to get together, and I also asked people to arrange two storytellers, let's enjoy the moon and drink while listening to books and chatting, so we can have a good time. ”
"Thank you Fu Jin for your management!" everyone hurriedly raised their glasses and said.
Ulanala smiled and flicked his hands, then raised his head and drank the osmanthus brew in the wine cup.
Seeing that Fu Jindu had already drunk all the wine, Erfu naturally didn't dare to hold it up, looked at the wine in the cup, as if swallowing a decoction, poured it into his throat, and quickly wiped the corner of his lips with a handkerchief.
The table was held here, and the storyteller who was prepared over there also came to the pavilion.
The bright moonlight sprinkled all over the lake, the lake surface was glowing with a faint silver light, and the lotus flowers in full bloom hung with crystal dewdrops, setting off the flower-drawing shark yarn lanterns in the pavilion, everyone seemed to be in a beautiful fairyland.
After three rounds of drinking, a somewhat heavy footstep appeared in the water pavilion.
Ps: Juanxin finished the code at noon today, but the Internet speed of the hotel really makes me tired, all kinds of can't open the web page, and it has been dragged until now before it can barely be mixed up, and I am tired of waiting for a long time, and my heart is not at ease!
I beg you to collect it fiercely and throw the recommendation vote to comfort your heart...... Sprinkle flowers......
