February is the season when everything wakes up. The trees in the yard have long since sprouted, and the soil under the trees is bursting with greenery.

Yuxi went to think of a five-bird play for more than a quarter of an hour. In the first few days, my whole body ached, and I couldn't walk steadily. If it were an ordinary person, he would have given up a long time ago, but Yuxi insisted and persisted for half a month. By now, it's much better.

After breakfast, Mother Qu came over and said; "Madam, the tea, pastries, and fruits are ready." Today, Yuxi invited Yunqing's henchmen to the ladies.

Yuxi snorted and said, "In half an hour, they should also arrive." "It's time for her to put on her makeup, too. Although she doesn't have to dress up to attend, she doesn't look good and needs to wear makeup.

This banquet, firstly, is to tell everyone that she is in good health, so that people outside always guess how long she can live; Second, communicate with the ladies to enhance their feelings.

As soon as Yuxi put on her makeup, she heard the maid say that Grandma Zhao Erma was coming. She hadn't changed her clothes yet, so she couldn't see anyone, so she waited in the living room for Zhao Er's grandmother.

Second Grandma Zhao is a person who knows that Yuxi is very particular, and there is nothing to be dissatisfied with. When he saw Yuxi come out, he said with a smile: "Your dress is so good-looking, I'm afraid Yucheng won't be able to find a second one." ”

Yuxi was wearing a twelve-piece moonflower skirt, with many skirt pleats, and she was very elegant when she walked. This skirt was still made in the capital that day, but it was left unworn.

Yuxi said with a smile: "Yucheng doesn't have it, it doesn't mean that there is no pickaxe city." When the time comes, you can do as many as you want. "Pickaxe City is much more prosperous than it is here.

Second Grandma Zhao's heart was stagnant, and she said with a smile: "Forget it, where do I still pay attention to these things at such an old age, and I will make a few more for Ziyao when the time comes." "This dress is not cheap at first glance, and she herself should not waste this money.

Yuxi didn't agree with Zhao Er's grandmother's point of view, and said, "What do you mean by being so old? You're only twenty-five this year! ”

Second Grandma Zhao said with a smile: "I'm old, where can I compare to you, I look like I'm only sixteen or seventeen years old!" ”

Without waiting for Yuxi to speak, he heard Licorice say, "Madam, Mrs. Feng is here." ”

Second Grandma Zhao snorted and said in great surprise: "Why did this Chang family come over today?" "Feng Dajun's wife's surname is Chang.

Chang's great-grandfather was sent to Yucheng by the imperial court, and later settled in Yucheng. Chang's appearance is average, and she will marry Feng Dajun because her father saved Feng Dajun's life. However, because of his birth, Chang rarely appeared at banquets.

Yuxi personally went to the courtyard to welcome Chang into the house. Don't look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha, just see that Feng Dajun is Yunqing's right-hand man, and she also has to entertain Chang's well.

Chang didn't want to come, she wasn't used to such occasions, and she always felt out of place. But in the end, I was persuaded by the mother-in-law next to me. Mrs. Yun's personal post, if she doesn't come, won't she not give Mrs. Yun face.

Second Grandma Zhao looked at Chang and frowned a little. This Chang is too bad at dressing up. is dressed in crimson clothes, combed a round bun, with a golden hairpin, I don't know, I think it's my mother in the mansion!

Yuxi smiled and asked people to bring tea and fruit snacks. This time, Yuxi made many kinds of pastries, including hibiscus cake, osmanthus cake, red bean date cake, crystal dragon and phoenix cake, purple dragon cake, as well as peach crisp and those biscuits of various shapes.

Chang Shi looked at the biscuit and felt very strange, took a piece to eat, and couldn't help but praise after eating: "It's so delicious, I don't know how this thing is made?" ”

Yuxi smiled: "I used fine noodles, and then mixed with milk, if Mrs. is interested, I will take the recipe and go back and try it myself." "This is the first time I've made cookies. Yuxi doesn't like to eat this, so the mansion never appears.

Chang didn't give in, and said directly: "Thank you, madam." "This thing, my daughter must like to eat it. Chang gave birth to a son and a daughter, and the daughter was a picky eater and didn't eat a lot of things. This worries her, and it makes her think that her daughter should like this kind of beautiful and delicious dim sew.

Second Grandma Zhao deliberately pretended to be very sour, and said, "Yuxi, you are too uninteresting, this recipe is only for Mrs. Feng and I don't have my share." ”

Chang was a little restrained, feeling that he had caused trouble for Yuxi.

Yuxi smiled at her: "She's joking!" Mrs. Feng doesn't have to care. She has these recipes for amethyst cakes. "It's true that Grandma Zhao has a recipe, but why is this pastry not as delicious as Mother Bai's. This made Second Mrs. Zhao particularly frustrated.

The other people who were invited to the banquet also came over one after another. But when the last one, Xiang Weiguo's wife Yan, came in, the room was suddenly quiet.

This Yan is wearing a bright red dress, combing a peony bun, pinning a jewel dotted with emerald beads on the left, wearing a gold silk inlaid ruby double luan dotted emerald step on the right, and a large ruby behind him, decorated with red jade drop bead earrings on his ears, a finely made gold necklace with beads on his neck, two gemstone rings on his fingers, and a red gold rubber silk bracelet on his right wrist.

Looking at Yan's dress, Yuxi frowned. What's going on with this Xiang Weiguo? I reminded him early to tell Yan not to be too public, and all she said was nonsense.

Second Grandma Zhao couldn't help but smile and said, "Mrs. Xiang, your jewels are enough to buy a five-entry mansion in the best location of Xinping City." "Where is this here for a banquet, this is clearly for the exhibition of jewelry. Anyway, all she saw was the jewelry, not anyone.

The Yan family is very beautiful, except for Yuxi, who is present, her appearance is the most outstanding. Hearing this, Yan raised his eyebrows and said proudly: "We have already bought a five-entry mansion in Xinping City. ”

Second Grandma Zhao deliberately pretended to be envious and said, "General Xiang is really capable, and Sister Yan is blessed." "The other people present may not have received as much gold, silver and jewelry as Wei Guo. But even if others wear them, they usually only wear one or two pieces, and they are not like Yan, who hate to wear all the jewelry on their bodies.

Yan liked this compliment very much and said, "That's it. Back then, my father valued my husband's outstanding ability and married me to her. ”

Yuxi felt that Yan's brain was full of tofu scum, otherwise he wouldn't have heard Zhao Er's grandmother's sarcasm. Yuxi smiled and said, "Mrs. Xiang, please take a seat!" In the previous banquets, the Yan family also came. However, although the Yan family was also very proud at that time, it was not as publicized as it is now.

The background of the Yan family is clear about Yuxi. Gan is a native of Tan Binh City, and his father is a small trader. Because of his outstanding appearance, he was taken in by Xiang Weiguo.

Xiang Weiguo sent someone to propose marriage, and at that time, the lion of the Yan family opened his mouth to ask for a bride price of 5,000 taels of silver. Xiang Weiguo really likes Yan, but he didn't save so much money lavishly. In the end, he asked for Yunqing to gather the bride price.

Since childhood, because of his outstanding appearance, his family is like a baby, and after getting married, he has been petty from time to time, and he prefers to defend the country and love to eat. The two of them are so good that they mix oil in honey, even if Yan's has not produced it yet, Xiang Weiguo doesn't care.

Yan Shi obviously looked like a brainless person, and Xiang Weiguo was still up to her, which made Yuxi a little worried. Xiang Wei Guo is in charge of military supplies, and once he has bad thoughts, he will have a big problem at that time.

Yan Shi looked at the bottom chair and looked a little dissatisfied. But she didn't have any brains, and she knew that this occasion was not something she could go wild.

Yuxi is someone, looking at her face, you know that she is not very satisfied with such an arrangement. But the people invited to this banquet are all Yunqing's henchmen, and their ages and official ranks are not too different, so Yuxi did not divide the priorities, they all came first and sat first. Yan was the last to arrive, so he naturally sat in the last position.

In order to ease the atmosphere, Du Zheng's wife Bao Shi said: "Madam, why didn't you see the eldest girl? I heard my lord say that the eldest girl is raised strong and solid. "The views of the people in the northwest are different from those in the capital, and they want their children to be strong. This shows that the child is well fed and will not die.

Yuxi didn't twist either, and ordered the licorice next to him and said, "Go and let them take out the eldest girl and the second girl." ”

Everyone present had seen jujubes, but it was the first time Liu Er had seen them. As soon as Zao Zao saw Yuxi, he shouted happily: "Mother." ”

Yuxi hugged her and gently patted her on the back. This little guy is very good at eating, eating four meals a day, and this does not include fruit snacks. is also Yuxi control zhì properly, plus jujube is active, otherwise he will definitely grow into a chubby girl.

Mrs. Feng looked at Liu Er, although the child's body was a little weak, but his facial features and skin were really good. Mrs. Feng is not a person who can compliment people, but looking at Liu Er, she couldn't help but say: "This child is really good-looking, madam, the person who proposes marriage in the future will definitely break the threshold of your family." ”

A family has a daughter, which is the greatest pride of being a parent. Yuxi smiled all over his face and said, "You have won the prize." "Praising a child is more enjoyable than praising her as a mother.

When Bao Shi saw Liu Er, he said with a smile: "The second girl is so cute with ice and snow, I want to take it home." "Jujube grows strong, but it's too much like a kid, not as likable as Liu'er.

Yan glanced at it and said with a smile: "I remember that your second boy is only three years old. If you really like it like this, then you can order a doll kiss! ”

As soon as Yan's words fell, the originally lively scene instantly calmed down.

Second Grandma Zhao opened her mouth, but in the end she didn't say anything. She didn't know what Yuxi meant, so she still didn't interject casually.

Feng Dajun's wife, Chang Shi, generally does not speak on such occasions, but this will say unprecedentedly: "The baby kiss is the most bad, when you grow up, you don't have a temperament, and the couple is noisy, but it is not beautiful." Chang's words are completely from the heart.

Bao Shi was a little depressed, and she didn't know that she really had the heart to marry the Yun family! Just praise the child for two good sentences, how can it lead to this!

Yuxi said with a smile; "Listening to Mrs. Feng's tone, you should have heard or seen something similar? If it's convenient, you might as well tell us about it. ”

Chang regretted it as soon as he finished speaking, and seeing that Yuxi was not angry, his heart was slightly relieved: "My aunt's niece of her husband's sister-in-law is the designated doll parent." As a result, both children were acutely short-tempered and had a lot of trouble. "It's so far-fetched.

Yuxi nodded and said, "Yes!" You still need to have a similar temperament in order to be harmonious and beautiful. This sentence easily reveals what happened just now. R1148
