Chapter 189: Refreshments

The next day, Gu Chongyue sent Shen Changan away early in the morning, lest Shen Changan spoil her good deeds.

As soon as Shen Changan went out, Gu Chongyue called the housekeeper over.

As long as the housekeeper saw Gu Chongyue now, he felt panic in his heart, and said tremblingly: "The old slave asks the princess for peace." ”

"Get up, today's banquet is set up in my courtyard, and I asked you to set up in front of the door to collect money, is it not right, is the place where the gifts from the wives of each family are stored?" Gu Chongyue pondered for a moment and asked.

The housekeeper was speechless for a while, did you say something missing, princess?

Actually, it's just trying to make money, right?

"The minions have already been prepared according to your wishes, princess, and the beans you fried earlier are ready, but we really don't need to prepare some pastries?" The housekeeper hesitated, thinking about the shabby beans in the back kitchen, and he could already foresee the collapse of the prince after he returned.

"How many banquets will this princess hold in the future, won't this pastry be better prepared next time? What do you want to give them in the end? Just do what I say. ”

"Yes." The housekeeper had no choice but to retreat.

Gu Chongyue didn't put up a shelf like the cloud beads that day, but waited in the courtyard early in the morning.

The first person to come, Gu Chongyue had met twice before, and they all came to say hello to Shen Changan, and the relationship was not bad.

"The concubine's wife, Zhang, has seen the Seventh Princess."

"Get up, I don't have to be polite and restrained, it's not the first time I've seen Madame, and it won't be the last time, Madame will sit first."

Gu Chongyue's smile was the kindness that the Zhang family had never seen on Gu Chongyue's face, the first two times she came with her own adult, she was unpretentious, and she was happy in her heart, she must have come over the first two times and left an impression on the Seventh Princess.

Soon, the other ladies and nobles also arrived in the courtyard one by one.

Yunzhu and the fourth princess came over at the same time, but the two of them didn't look too pleasant.

"I've seen two imperial sisters-in-law." Gu Chongyue got up and said to the two.

The fourth princess smiled when she heard this: "The seventh brother and sister don't need to be polite, but it's a little strange, why do you have to hold a banquet with the seventh brother and sister." She looked puzzled, coupled with the harmless appearance of humans and animals.

It's not good to rush her when people are angry.

"It's just a coincidence, the fourth imperial sister-in-law should sit down quickly."

When the two of them were seated, the others sat down again.

"I don't know why the seventh brother and sister held this banquet today? Wouldn't you plan to be like yesterday's imperial sister-in-law, please all of us to drink water? The fourth princess asked with a surprised expression.

"I'm drinking tea, and the four siblings should pay attention when they talk." Yun Zhu reluctantly corrected the sentence, trying to maintain his face that had disappeared.

However, she herself said these words with a weak heart, and everyone here had been to the Prince's Mansion yesterday, and when she arrived at the Seven Princes' Mansion at this time, when she heard the tea, she thought of the fear of being dominated by the tea for two hours yesterday.

"Today's banquet is also that I have just married the prince, and I don't know much about the ladies in Beijing, so I invited you to the banquet, don't you mind? As for drinking water? I wouldn't be so inconsiderate, I had already prepared refreshments. ”

Gu Chongyue said, and then instructed Chunxi: "Chunxi, go and urge the kitchen to bring things up." ”

As soon as the words fell, she received Yunzhu's accusatory eyes, and that look clearly said that you lied to me.

But soon, she saw the refreshments prepared by Gu Chongyue.
