Houmen Dixiu

Chapter 88
However, Du Yanyun glanced at Song Simiao coldly, "Song Simiao, if you want to come here for me, you don't have to do anything that is not on the stage, and you are not afraid of losing the face of your lady in the old mansion!"

"What did I do? You made such a fuss, but it was all accidental. No one thought about it. If you care about it like this, aren't you afraid of losing face to your chief assistant's granddaughter?"

Song Simiao and Du Yanyun's confrontation was naturally because she was dissatisfied in her heart. She was obviously the granddaughter of Ge Lao, but because the Du family occupied the position of chief assistant, everyone was used to comparing the two of them. There is a pimple.

Du Yanyu took Radu Yanyun's hand and said in a low voice: "Second sister, don't argue with her, everyone is watching!"

"Second Cousin, Third Cousin, just sit here for a while, and I will accompany Cousin Ziya to change clothes."

After Xiao Huaisu finished speaking, he ignored Song Simiao's pretentiously arrogant face, took Wang Ziya's arm, turned around and left, while still concerned: "It's just that the skirt is wet, are the shoes wet?"

Wang Ziya shook her head, with a hint of helplessness on her gentle face, she just smiled wryly, "I'm afraid that Miss Song targeted me just now because of my second cousin. Is there something wrong between the two of them?"

"I don't know that either."

Xiao Huaisu shook his head and said: "But don't take this matter to heart, no one will look down on Song Simiao with such a small belly."

"That's all, I'll stay with my mother quietly for a while."

Wang Ziya shook her head and sighed, a little unaccustomed to the interpersonal relationship in Bianjing, thinking about it this way, it's better for them to be in Yanping, away from the bustling city of Bianjing, which has its own flavor.

"It's not like this," Xiao Huaisu glanced at Wang Ziya, and said cautiously: "It's also my first time attending a palace banquet, and I'm not familiar with many people and things, but as long as we act carefully, people won't make mistakes. Just like, a person like Song Simiao has a moment of pleasure, but she doesn't know what others are talking about her behind her back, such a person must not have a good reputation."

Wang Ziya twitched the corners of her lips, a blush appeared on her face, "Cousin is really open-minded, it's hard for you to forgive me at such a young age..."

"Then cousin, don't lose your interest because of what happened just now. The palace banquet hasn't started yet, and there will definitely be wonderful performances in a while. With so many delicacies taking turns, you can't let your appetite be spoiled just because you lose your interest!"

Xiao Huaisu's witty words really made Wang Ziya feel better, and after changing her dress, she returned to the hall again.

This time, Xiao Huaisu saw Sister Xiao Huaichang, but the seat of Xiao's family was not too close, hanging faintly at the end, the two of them obviously also saw her, and their faces were immediately full of embarrassment.

Wang Ziya glanced at her, and then she understood, "That's your sister, go over and talk, I'll just go back and sit down by myself."

"Cousin, let's go back home and talk about it."

Xiao Huaisu nodded to Wang Ziya with a smile, secretly thinking that she is so considerate at her age, the more she thinks about it, the more she feels that she is not compatible with a mother like Du Boxian, I am afraid that apart from this appearance, she is also like her father in temperament.

"Eldest sister, second sister!"

Xiao Huaisu smiled and went forward to greet sister Xiao Huaichang, and they also stood up.

Xiao Huairou smiled reservedly, "Third sister, I saw you a long time ago, but we are far away, so it is difficult for us to come here."

Xiao Huaisu nodded and didn't say much, just took Xiao Huaichang's hand and said, "Why are you the only ones here, where is the eldest aunt?"

"Well, not over there!"

Xiao Huaichang stretched out his hand somewhat disinterestedly, "Mother has been busy making good relations with all parties since she came here, and she is talking to my father's wife at the peak right now!"

Xiao Huaisu turned his head to look, and sure enough, he saw Mrs. Xiao surrounded by a woman with a face of enthusiasm. The woman was slightly plump, but the expression on her face was indifferent. Either she turned a blind eye to Mrs. Xiao's enthusiasm, or I can't bear to talk to her.

Xiao Huaisu couldn't help sighing from the bottom of his heart, maybe this circle is like this, if you weren't so powerful and powerful, who would want to come to please you?
All the flashy smoke and clouds are just looking for a relative balance between interests and power, so that the guests and hosts enjoy themselves.

"Sir, do you want to sit here for a while?"

Xiao Huairou's attitude at the moment is much more easy-going and friendly. Perhaps the blow she received from Song Simiao also made her realize the gap between herself and the ladies in Bianjing, let alone she is still a concubine.

"Okay!"

As soon as Xiao Huaisu answered, there were maids singing at the entrance of the hall, "The palace banquet is about to begin, please take your seats first!"

As soon as the words fell, the wives and ladies who had gathered in twos and threes in the hall immediately dispersed and found their own seats to sit down.

Xiao Huaisu could only look at Xiao Huairou apologetically, "Sister, I'm afraid I have to go back to my seat."

"You go, we haven't reserved your seat here."

Xiao Huaichang smiled at Xiao Huaisu cheerfully, she didn't think that Xiao Huaisu became so great after being in the Du family's honor, she was still her third sister in her eyes.

Xiao Huairou also nodded slightly, "Let's get together again when we have time."

Xiao Huaisu smiled, looked at Mrs. Xiao who was approaching hurriedly, and saluted her, "Auntie." Then he turned and went to the top seat on the right.

There, Mrs. Du and Mrs. Wang had already sat down, smiling and waving at her.

Mrs. Xiao saw it, and couldn't help feeling envious, wondering when would the Xiao family be able to sit in such a position?
He looked back at the two daughters nestled in the corner, blocked by the pillars of the hall, and the dim candlelight in the corner could not even illuminate their faces clearly, let alone let other ladies see their faces. Well, Mrs. Xiao couldn't help but sighed in her heart, and walked over with heavy steps.

Mrs. Du and Mrs. Wang were sitting in the front row, and the Xiao Huaisu sisters were slightly behind. A few long desks were placed in front of them, and a court lady came up to exchange tea cups and snacks.

Xiao Huaisu saw Du Boxian's mother and daughter sitting across from her. They were located slightly behind the middle of the noble ranks. In front of them were the female relatives of the Duke's Mansion, and even some of the Prince's Mansion and the County Prince's Mansion. .

"After all, I'm getting old, and my energy is not good enough. I just talked to the old lady of Duke Jing's mansion for a while, and I feel dizzy."

Mrs. Du glanced left and right, seeing that everyone was sitting down properly, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Wang Shi covered her lips and said with a smile: "I think Mrs. Gu is too good at talking. I'm afraid that the battle will last three days and three nights without getting tired."

"She is in good spirits, and I can't compare to her."

Mrs. Du shook her head, then looked at her granddaughters, "You guys have been sitting and hiding for a long time, why do I still come and go when I see Huai Su?"
