Ruanjiaobao was forced to marry by Lord Hou again

Chapter 128 The Wedding Banquet
The marriage was done in a hurry, and the second-bedroom couple didn't have time to come back. Mrs. Zhao treated people sincerely and didn't get to the bottom of it. She only lamented that Jiang Lanshu had served Mrs. Shen for many years, and she had to seal several boxes of generous dowry.

Mrs. Shen didn't take care of Jiang Lanshu's affairs after she set the wedding date. Only Mother Xuan and Ye Lingwu were busy with the wedding banquet list.

This matter naturally reached Qin Mingyu's ears, but she replied that she could not leave the palace, and originally all matters in the palace were left to Mrs. Zhao, and she also arranged the wedding banquet.

When Mrs. Zhao found out, she was in a hurry. There were still three days before the wedding banquet, and she spent the whole night sorting out the purchases and some trivial matters. After all, if this matter was not handled well, it would damage the reputation of Mrs. Shen. , The second is to make people pinch.

Fortunately, Mrs. Shen said that if the Jiang family is not present, they will be exempted from setting up a heavy banquet. The banquet will be prepared by the Rong family, and all the guests will come to congratulate the Rong family. It's enough for people to go to the house to have a drink.

Ye Lingwu saw that Mrs. Zhao was working so hard, she only felt warm in her heart, and Mrs. Zhao was probably the example of a high-ranking clan wife.

And as Rong Yu's good brother Shen Ci who grew up together, when he learned that the two got married in a hurry, it was a bolt from the blue. On the day he received the news, he went back to the city to find Rong Yu for a good conversation. After learning the cause and effect , only sympathy left in my heart.

This brother is still planted.

After four days passed, it was the fifth day of September.

Inside and outside Ningbeihou's mansion was bustling with joy, people from Jinghe Hall and Second House greeted guests in the outer courtyard with smiling faces, and of course there were a few with downcast faces.

I don't know how long it took, there was a clatter of noise outside, and the wedding party came to the door.

Rong Yu was riding a maroon horse, wearing a big red wedding dress with big red flowers on her chest, a black hat on her head, and a smile that was uglier than bitter.

Behind him, the gongs and drums were locked and ascended to the sky. There were ten red-clothed servants on the left and five red-clothed female envoys on the side. The team was very powerful.

Shen Ci stood in front of the mansion, the corner of his mouth almost twitching without laughing, it was the first time he saw Rong Yu tense up in a serious situation at such a big age, it was gratifying and sad.

Begonia fast.

Those in the know all smiled tacitly, as if this marriage was a godsend that was arranged early.

Old Mrs. Shen was wearing a brand-new sapphire blue Liufu embroidered thong with dark pattern flowers at the door today. She looked solemnly at Rong Yu who kowtowed to her next, took the tea from him, and handed over a red envelope without saying a word. , and then looked him up and down with a pair of cold eyes with oppression.

Rong Yu was so frightened that the smile on his face stiffened even more.

Jiang Lanshu covered her face with an acacia fan studded with red pearls, so she couldn't see her expression clearly. On her body was a big red wedding cannon embroidered with a phoenix Yufei and lit with peacock feathers, which was more precious than many daughters born in the same family.

After the tea ceremony was over, Jiang Lanshu kowtowed goodbye to the old lady Shen, and the old lady Shen calmed down a bit, the corners of her eyes were foggy, and she said in a solemn voice: "I hope you will respect and love each other from now on. Stretching, soaking the foam and whitening the head."

Jiang Lanshu's heart was sour. After all, she is not a wooden person. She has feelings for being with Mrs. Shen for so many years. When she said these words, her eyes filled with tears, and she choked up for a long time before she said, "Lanshu... thank you for raising Mrs. Shen all these years. Grace."

Mrs. Shen could hold back the big scene, and nodded with a smile: "Go."

Outside the gate of the mansion, the matchmaker is carrying the sedan chair on the back, and the spacious sedan chair is decorated with pearls and emeralds. When the bride enters the sedan chair and the groom gets on his horse, the gongs, drums, locks, and locks are all ringing, and they gradually drift away amidst the deafening sound of wedding cannons in the Hou Mansion.

After seeing off the bride, Mrs. Shen and Mrs. Zhao set up a banquet in the side hall, took the women to have tea and chat, and set up several tables of Pai Gow in the middle.

During the meeting, the conversation was gentle, everyone said something to each other, or joked or gossiped, and what they said was very speculative.

But where there are many women, there is a lot of right and wrong. During this period, the women asked a lot of questions about why the wedding banquet was rushed, but Tanchun, Ye Lingwu and others evaded it until they couldn't dig out gossip.

On the other side, the welcoming team Haohao Tangtang arrived at Rongzheng Earl's Mansion.
The mansion of Earl Rongzheng's mansion is spacious, under the shade of his ancestors, he is as prosperous and wealthy as the third-class family in the capital, and his mansion is only one lane away from the palace city.

Although the glory of the Rong family is not as good as it used to be, there are quite a few noble girls attending the private school of the Rong family, and they are all here today. Even Liu Feiyan, who has been "low-key" in recent months, has sent congratulatory gifts on behalf of the Shunchang Palace .

The old lady Rong and Mrs. Fang organized the banquet lively, ten tables were opened inside and outside, and many relatives and friends came.

And as another one of the "hupenggouyou", compared to the unbelievable Shen Ci when he first heard about it, Pei Huai was calm when he received the invitation, and ordered the servants to prepare the gift in a leisurely manner. He ordered the housekeeper to fetch several jars of good wine from his wine cellar.

Even today, going to the banquet is unhurried and calm.

It was getting dark.The male Xi Erlang was so drunk that he still didn't forget to encourage each other to go to the bridal chamber, Rong Yu's cheeks were flushed, and he didn't know whether it was because of the trouble or shyness, and he was pushed and shouted all the way to the inner courtyard.

Rongzheng Earl's Mansion is still bustling, but Ningbeihou's Mansion has stopped. The second-bedroom couple who have been busy all day have returned to Yushu Pavilion early, Mrs. Shen also returned to Jinghe Hall, and Shen Ci went back to Jinghe Hall before the sky darkened. He ran to Earl Rongzheng's mansion, and was following the bridal chamber at the moment.

Ye Lingwu, who was about to fall asleep, was dragged out of the mansion by Shen Pan'er.

"Third Miss, where are we going?" Ye Lingwu trotted to keep up with Shen Pan'er's striding meteor.

"My girl is in a bad mood today, so I'm going to find a restaurant to have a good drink."

As soon as she heard that she was going to a restaurant, Ye Lingwu stopped immediately, and the faces of Rongxiu and Yingchun beside her also changed drastically.

"I won't go, Miss San can still remember what happened last time." Ye Lingwu refused.

If she didn't leave, Shen Pan'er couldn't pull her away at all. She tried to pull it several times to no avail, and said angrily: "You are still my good sister, my heart is almost suffocated, and you still don't accompany me, have you forgotten?" How did I treat you well before?"

Ye Lingwu's heart softened again.

After thinking for a long time, I finally followed.

Just after nightfall, the long street is full of pedestrians, both sides of the street are crowded with all kinds of shops and hawkers, fluttering colorful tricks and red lanterns are scattered high and low.

The carriage slowly stopped at Fu Ruixiang. Because he had come back last time, Butler Sun still remembered the appearance of Shen Pan'er and Ye Lingwu, and hurriedly greeted them to the wing on the second floor.

The waiter in the restaurant brought several jars of wine one after another, and several dishes of side dishes. Ye Lingwu looked at the round table full of food and wine, and said awkwardly: "Third Miss, let's drink less tonight, don't drink too much Had a really bad headache the next day."

Shen Pan'er glanced at her, raised her chin and said, "I don't, I'm going to get drunk today." She looked at Ying Xia Chao next to her, "Go to Cheng's house and say yes I invite Miss Cheng to have a drink and ask her to meet at Fu Ruixiang Restaurant."

Yingxia's dark expression was incredulous: "Third Miss, wouldn't it be impolite to invite someone to the restaurant for a drink this evening? General Cheng and Mrs. Fang know that you can't hide the fact that you came to the restaurant to drink." .”

"What are you afraid of? Uncle Cheng and Aunt Fang won't tell their mother," Shen Pan'er pushed her, "Go quickly, don't wait for me."
