Xiao Chong: The Abandoned Concubine Shocks the World

Chapter 26 Peach Blossom Soup

"Ma'am, please get out of the car and take the sedan chair."

Jinxia, ​​Zidian, and Qingshuang all had wounds on their hands. When they went to the palace, they fell into people's eyes. They didn't know what troubles would arise, so Yao Tong brought along the maid named Xiaoxi.

"Mrs. Yao, please come inside."

As soon as Yao Tong entered, the hall froze for a moment, and countless eyes fell on her.

The concubine and concubine of Prince Ji's Mansion haven't come yet, but the banquet in the Palace of the Prince's Mansion is to celebrate the birthday of the eldest son, and those who have the dignity to come to the Daming Mansion all come early.

For a girl who has not left the pavilion, what she looks at is her face, then the jewelry on her head and the clothes on her body.

The young woman looked at her slightly, and there was a meaningful understanding in her eyes.

Look at the waist and legs that are unsteady on foot, tsk tsk, it is just like the rumors, singing every night, no wonder that face is so beautiful!The son of the world is really a dragon and a tiger, and he nourishes people so well.

These women who passed through the personnel exchanged glances with each other.

"Second sister, my sister will definitely avenge you."

Sister Sun Qionghua is naturally there too.

"Good sister, don't make trouble, she is not a good person, we sisters have suffered from her, and my sister has a scar... Don't worry, my brother has been searching for good medicine, and my sister's scar will definitely be gone... "Sun Qionghua comforted her younger sister, but her eye circles were red.

After Sun Wu heard these words, the old and new grudges intensified, with a vicious look on his face.

Sun Qionghua's eyelashes flickered twice, hiding his eyes full of hatred.

"This way, please."

Yao Tong was arranged to sit next to the young woman, and the seat was relatively low. It seems that although the Prince Ji Mansion was forced to recognize her, they refused to recognize her as the first wife.

Feeling the sizing eyes of the women in the front, back, left and right, Yao Tong was calm, neither happy nor sad, which made those people feel embarrassed.

"Light the candles and set off the firecrackers."

A maid came in to remind a few times, and the crepe lanterns under the verandah at the door lit up one after another, high and low, patchwork, reflecting the white snow and glass, very beautiful.

Soon the sound of firecrackers sounded, and it became lively all of a sudden.

"Ma'am, this is a custom in Jizhou, which means that the birthday man will be prosperous and the coming year will be smooth." Xiaoxi explained in a low voice.

Yao Tong nodded slightly, and she just realized that the 24th birthday of a male in Jizhou is a big day and should be celebrated with great fanfare.Because from birth to 12 years old, it means a reincarnation. During these 12 years, the child is still young, and he is afraid that the soul will be unstable, so it can't be too big.And at the age of 24, it is the second reincarnation. He has grown up and is able to support a family and set up a family. It is going to be lively.

And He Zhenghan is the eldest son of Prince Ji's family, the eldest son who holds the real power. His birthday should be celebrated even more. Even Princess Ji, who has never been in love with this eldest son, has personally intervened and made sure to hold this birthday banquet. Be pretty.

"The princess is here."

The sound of firecrackers stopped, and Princess Ji came slowly.

Yao Tong and a group of female guests saluted, and looked up curiously. Last time, Princess Ji never saw her, not even He Zhenghan. As soon as the second master of the palace of the bird cage left, Princess Ji saw her.

She could guess that their relationship between mother and son was cold.

Seeing the appearance of Princess Ji, Yao Tong was slightly taken aback, she looked too similar, He Zhenghan looked too much like her, especially those eyes, the same deep and long, the tails of the eyes were slightly raised, even the eyes were similar, born Bring cold.Such a similarity, at first glance, is real.

Concubine Ji is not too young, and she is well maintained. The years have only accumulated grace on her body, and no other traces have been added to her face. This is a graceful and luxurious lady.

"Everyone, get up." Princess Ji's voice was cold, she was not the kind who was gentle and approachable, no matter her appearance or demeanor, she was alienated, and she was not arrogant and domineering, but indifferent by nature.

Concubine Ji on the high seat seemed to be aware of it, and looked over, Yao Tong quickly turned her eyes, and lowered her eyes to look in front of her.

"The concubine was happy last night, so she set off a few more firecrackers. I don't want to feel a little uncomfortable this morning. The son is filial, and he is a junior. I can't bear to make the concubine tired, so I am the only one to accompany everyone." Ji As soon as the concubine's words fell, there was a smart woman below, praising the son for his filial piety, the concubine's kindness, and the atmosphere was extremely harmonious.

Princess Ji always had a faint smile on her face, no matter what compliments she heard, she would never change.

"Let's have a banquet."

The messenger maids clapped their hands lightly, and groups of maids entered with trays.

At this time, the banquet was divided into meals. On the table in front of Yao Tong, a set of six dishes was quickly placed, all of which were made of jade white porcelain. The dishes inside did not know how they tasted, but they looked extremely delicate , the dishes in each dish are arranged in the shape of a flower, with bright colors.

The maid who set the meal stepped back and played music soon. The dancer with fluttering sleeves and light gauze came up to perform the dance. Dining amidst singing and dancing was very relaxing.

After the song and dance ended, the maid poured Yao Tong a glass of wine. Yao Tong noticed that the maids serving everyone were pouring wine. Is this for drinking?

Sure enough, soon Princess Ji got up to toast, and everyone in the hall stood up quickly. She said a few auspicious words, and drank it all in one gulp. , sour and sweet, the taste is similar to fruit juice, Yao Tong thought after drinking it.

Princess Ji wished this glass of wine and left. From the beginning to the end, she never asked Yao Tong, her attitude was completely ignoring.

After Princess Ji left, not long after, some elderly ladies and wives from various families left one after another.After all, it is the son's birthday, and the elders have done their best when they come. Now following the footsteps of Princess Ji to leave, it is also giving up the venue to the young people, so that they can have a good time and have fun. It is also the elders who love the younger generation.

Sure enough, as soon as these Zhenshan Taisui left, the atmosphere in the hall immediately changed.

"Don't do any more singing and dancing, I'm tired of listening to it. The ventriloquist that my second brother found a while ago is good, he can imitate hundreds of voices by himself, let him come over, let everyone listen to something new." The elders left , the highest status in the seat is Yongfu Princess He Fuyuan, she is very happy today, the elder brother celebrated his birthday, the father, mother and concubine took care of it, the family is harmonious and beautiful, she couldn't be happier.

"It sounds unique and interesting, then we will be honored by the princess." Sun Qionghua was the first to agree. Her dress was fresh and elegant, her voice was soft, and she looked like a gentle lady.

Shen Baozhen, who was sitting above her, curled his lips, and looked at the table in front of him, but he couldn't find Mrs. Yao, but caught the second sister-in-law's attention instead.

After taking a warning glance, Shen Baozhen withdrew his eyes, and didn't want to look at Sun Qionghua's smirking face, so he picked up a dish with chopsticks resentfully, and took a hard bite.

Soon the southeast corner was surrounded by a barrier, and the ventriloquist sat in the barrier, with a table, a chair, a door, and a ruler in front of him, and began to perform ventriloquism.

The performance is white birds contending, with one mouth imitating different bird calls, making everyone feel like they are in the white bird garden, which is extremely exciting.

"It's a cuckoo."

"This is a thrush."

"This is an oriole."

Princess Yongfu was very interested in guessing which kind of bird it was calling, and everyone else followed suit, and it was very lively for a while.

"Sister Yuan, look at you talking so much with everyone, everyone is thirsty, let someone serve that cup of peach blossom soup." Sun Qionghua said so delicately, He Fuyuan couldn't help laughing, "Second sister, I like this soup the most, but it took a lot of trouble to make it, I must be greedy, and I want to pull me in."

Sun Qionghua blushed, and smiled shyly, "Sister Yuan, you are laughing at me again. This is thanks to the blessing of my cousin, we have this blessing."

He Fuyuan smiled at her, suddenly thought of something, and glanced at the place where Yao Tong was.

Sun Qionghua's smile remained unchanged, his eyes darkened, and he tapped his fingers on the table three times regularly.

"I've heard of the famous peach blossom soup in Wang's Mansion a long time ago. It is said that it is extremely troublesome. It is a great honor to taste it today."

Soon, a group of maids came over with a lacquer plate painted with flowers on a black background. On the plate was a round cup of azure blue, which should be the peach blossom soup.

No, the maid serving her soup suddenly shook her hand holding the cup, and the hot soup poured out.
