Just like in the game, the big boss is always left to be the last to appear.When Zheng Qingchuan entered the house, he saw some elders who were older and dressed very decently, these people were smiling, sitting on chairs, or on the kang, did that mean waiting for the juniors to come to serve tea Zheng Qingchuan looked at Mrs.
Su and then at Su Mu, she thought: Tea or salute, it's not bad, but, if you want to kneel, no, she knelt down on the day she got married, it was because Mrs.
Su was Su Mu's grandmother, and she only knelt once, Mrs.
Su immediately let her get up, and she was not too repulsive that time.But the situation in front of her made her more stressed, and she decided to imitate Su Mu and act at the opportunity.In front of so many people, I can't even whisper.The people in the courtyard also rushed in, talking and laughing, and someone shouted: "The new daughter-in-law hasn't given tea to the elders in the family yet, hurry up" Zheng Qingchuan didn't move, waiting for Su Mu to move first, but he didn't expect Su Mu to also move.One of the old men sitting on the throne proposed, "Let's go to the ancestral hall first," and the ancestral hall contained the tablets of the ancestors.Generally, the family with an ancestral hall is considered a big family, not to mention, the ancestral hall in front of me is still very newly repaired, and after worshipping the ancestral tablet, everyone returned to the courtyard.Su Mu saluted the elders, and Zheng Qingchuan hurriedly followed suit, bent over, lowered his head, lowered his eyebrows, shouted to the elders, handed over the teacup, and did not kneel.Ah Qing and Ah Yun were more unlucky, kneeling down with a few of the highest elders, and then took the red envelope sullenly.Then, Zheng Qingchuan was reminded by Mrs.
Su and Mama Yun, and began to give the gifts they brought one by one.The gifts were well prepared, and no one was neglected, whether old or young.The scene of sharing gifts is a lot of fun.Next, it's time to chat.Things went so smoothly, Zheng Qingchuan felt a lot more relaxed, and thought: It's better to be an official because Su Mu has a social status, so everyone is willing to save face for Su Mu The elders talk to Mrs.
Su, and the juniors like to talk to Ah Qing, Ah Yun and Zheng Qingchuan, many people have never been to the capital, but they are full of imagination about the capital, and there are countless questions."
Have you seen the emperor?"
"No." ”"What does the queen look like?"
”"Have you ever been to the palace?"
"I haven't been inside, I've only seen the palace wall outside, which is very high, and there are many royal guards patrolling, all with swords." ”"I heard that the house you live in the capital is very good, right?"
"There are a lot of good houses in the capital, and our house can only be regarded as average, middle to low." ”"Do all the little ladies in the capital wear clothes like you and wear such jewelry?"
"There are the same, there are also different, there are many kinds. ”Ha, just like a celebrity holding a press conference, Zheng Qingchuan deliberately paid attention to it, and didn't see Su Dong and Tong.However, before she came, she had instructed Mama Yun and Qiao'er, presumably they would help inquire about the news.Regarding the matter of inviting the whole village to dinner, there is no need for Su Mu and Zheng Qingchuan to be busy at all, the relatives have already started to prepare, Su Mu only needs to give the silver, and give some hard red envelopes, the relatives are busy and happy, Su Mu and Zheng Qingchuan are relatively relaxed, this is the best of both worlds.At noon, the flowing water seat was in full swing, and everyone was eating while being lively, and in addition to eating, the mouth had to talk and laugh non-stop.Zheng Qingchuan's table is the most quiet.Ah Qing and Ah Yun saw such a scene for the first time, and looked at other people's appearances curiously, but they were not very interested in the dishes on the table, probably because they saw that when others brought the dishes, their hands were full of oil and their hands were still swarthy.Ah Qing and Ah Yun were definitely pampered and grew up, and they lived a beautiful life since they were children.However, they didn't have a crooked temper, and when they saw Zheng Qingchuan eating a certain dish, they would also taste a little bit and eat very slowly.The relatives at the same table were very enthusiastic, and persuaded with a smile: "Eat more and eat more, you can taste the hometown food" Because they saw others talking while waving chopsticks in the air above the vegetable bowl, Ah Qing and Ah Yun's eyes were like vigilant kittens, for fear that others would stretch out their chopsticks to pick up vegetables for them.Zheng Qingchuan often used his gaze to communicate with them and comfort them.Old Madam Su sat at the next table, and suddenly turned around and smiled: "They are seasick, so they eat less these days."
The first time I went far away, there was no way, "If Zheng Qingchuan and Ah Qing Ah Yun eat too little, they will be suspected by the guests that they don't give face, or even put on a shelf, and look down on Mrs.
Su Here As soon as Mrs.
Su said this, she played a round This is very effective, and the posture of the relatives to persuade the dishes immediately weakened, but the kind smile still did not decrease, and the curious eyes were still extremely curious, and some people even stared at Ah Yun for a long time, just to study Ah Yun's action of holding chopsticks with her fingers.Ah Yun couldn't stand it, and finally whispered to Zheng Qingchuan: "Qiqi, I want to go back to the inn." ”The tone is weak, and the mood is not very good.Zheng Qingchuan understood her very well, and reached out to pat her back.The penguins of Antarctica entered the zoo for the first time and were surrounded by tourists, probably this is the mood Zheng Qingchuan's psychological tolerance is a little better than Ah Yun's, but it is only a little better.She replied in a very low voice: "Wait a while, let's ask Su Mu." ”She turned her head and looked for Su Mu with her eyes, only to find that Su Mu was even worse than them, because Su Mu was toasting table after table.Su Mu happened to glance at Zheng Qingchuan, and when the eyes of the two met, Su Mu's face was already drunk.Zheng Qingchuan's originally relaxed mood immediately became nervous, alcohol can get drunk to death, even if it is not so serious, she doesn't want Su Mu to be harmed by alcohol and have those liver diseases.She beckoned to Mama Yun not far away, and Mama Yun immediately trotted over.Zheng Qingchuan leaned next to Mama Yun's ear and whispered: "Is there any way, don't let Su Mu drink" Mama Yun said without thinking: "Fifth young lady rest assured, the wine of the fifth young master is different, it is green plum wine, specially prepared the kind of wine that is not easy to be intoxicating, Qingshan personally carried the wine jug beside the fifth young master" Zheng Qingchuan was a little relieved, but he was still not completely relieved.The atmosphere was both lively and a bit chaotic, and the mood was affected by this.Although the weather at the end of March was not hot, she felt like she was sweating.There is a peach tree in the courtyard where they are sitting, the wind blows, the petals flutter, the green mountains and fields in the distance are still peaceful, and the beautiful scenery is still the same, but Zheng Qingchuan feels insecure here, probably because there are too many unfamiliar people around him.After the meal, Zheng Qingchuan still didn't find a chance to talk to Su Mu alone, Su Mu was surrounded by a circle of people, and while others were willing to give Su Mu face, there were also many sycophants.For some people, this kind of scene is as easy as humming a little song casually, and it is easy to come by.Ah Qing also complained in a low voice: "Brother doesn't care about us and ignores us" Zheng Qingchuan was helpless, held Ah Qing and Ah Yun's hands, and silently prayed that Su Mu was not drunk.As long as he is not drunk, sooner or later he will come to them The person who called himself his sister-in-law smiled and said: "Are you tired, I'll take you into the house to rest" Another person echoed: "The two little girls don't look very energetic, are they sick, do you want to invite a doctor to take a look" Zheng Qingchuan smiled and refused: "Thank you sister-in-law, we're fine."
We're sitting here and listening to everyone talking, and we're happy. ”There was a woman who said: "You're welcome, anyway, you have to stay here for a few days, we will slowly get acquainted" Zheng Qingchuan smiled silently, and couldn't help but look for Su Mu again, and his mood became more and more impatient.If Su Mu is strong, they can go back to the inn to live, and if Su Mu is not strong, they must stay here.Although the conditions of the inn are ordinary, at least it is quieter.What's more, things like quilts are all brought by yourself.Zheng You came with him today, Zheng You's eloquent mouth played a role, "Ouch, I made an appointment with a few local sons and brothers in Suzhou to drink at night, if you go late, you will definitely be punished, if you annoy them, it will be even worse, this drunkenness, you almost made a mistake" He pretended to pat his forehead with his right hand, looking very headache.Someone asked curiously: "We probably know the local sons and brothers in Suzhou, which ones Zheng Gongzi is about" Zheng You didn't think about it, and said with a smile: "It's just a few Yanei, Zhou Gongzi, Li Gongzi, Zhu Gongzi, Song Gongzi." ”Yanai refers to the son of an official.As soon as these surnames came out, a group of people in the Su family opened their mouths wide and exclaimed: "Zheng Gongzi is really amazing, these people are very difficult to invite, the officials in the family are big, and their tempers are also very big" Su Mu cast a meaningful look at Zheng You, as if he was smiling.Zheng You was calm and composed, without stage fright at all, and continued to smile: "I have also stayed in Suzhou for a few years, this is just a trivial matter. ”The old man of the Zheng family has been an official in Suzhou for several years, and everyone knows it.The surrounding circle of people looked at Zheng You's gaze even more admired, and someone smiled: "If you encounter anything in the future, please ask Zheng Gongzi to do me a favor" Zheng You did not shirk, and laughed with a spring breeze: "It's easy to say and say" If Zheng Qingchuan hears it, she should sigh: The men's conversation is much more boring than the women's conversation To sum up, it is probably bragging, sycophants and yellow jokes Zheng You continued: "I will take Su Mu to accompany you, you are rude, we may have to leave early, we can't stay for a long time, come back tomorrow morning" The people of the Su family were reluctant, but thinking of those yamen with well-known surnames, they didn't want to let them go, and they all understood that the most important thing in the world to offend was that the powerful people asked Su Mu and Zheng You when they would come tomorrow morning, and then kept sending people to the carriage.Zheng Qingchuan also cleverly refused to be retained by his relatives, and made an excuse to say: "I want to follow my husband to visit a few important people in Suzhou City."
I came back in too much hurry, and the first thing I did was to come back to worship my ancestors, and I didn't have time to visit others yet. ”Although these words were vague, they left enough room for others to imagine, and most of the people present felt that Su Mu and Zheng Qingchuan must be going to visit the biggest official in Suzhou City, which was a very important thing, so they could only release them.Everyone followed the carriage and sent it a long way, especially many children who ran happily with the carriage.How similar is the farewell scene to the welcoming scene Sitting on the running carriage, Zheng Qingchuan hugged Ah Qing and Ah Yun who were snuggling with her, and sighed comfortably: "Actually, everyone is fine":
