The phrase 'big brother' shocked Yaoniang and King Jin, they looked at each other for a while, Yaoniang made fun of him: let you come uninvited. King Jin didn't bother to pay attention to her, he went to sit beside him with Er Bao in his hand.
Mrs. Wu made tea for King Jin, and King Jin said with a strange expression, thank you, auntie. At this time, Hui Niang called Yao Niang outside, and she hurried out without caring about King Jin.
When she met Xiaobao and Yuchan while going out, Yaoniang hurriedly said to her son, your father is in the house, and left.
The Su family really didn't have enough manpower, so they had to invite people from outside to help with the wedding banquet, but someone always had to watch it. Su Xiucai was busy greeting his colleagues, Yao Cheng had to go to the door to greet guests, and Hui Niang was busy back and forth between the yard and the kitchen by herself, so she couldn't see it, so she called Yao Niang.
The West Wing, which had been vacant all the time, was purposely vacated, and a few tables were set up for entertaining distinguished guests. The yard is also full of tables, and the wedding banquet team is busy coming and going. As time passed, more and more guests came to congratulate her, and most of these people were the neighbors of the Su family.
Mrs. Wu has a good temper and gets along well with her neighbors. Today, Su's family has a happy event. With such a big commotion, naturally everyone came to congratulate her.
Standing at the door, Yao Cheng led the people in one by one, Uncle Mao, Aunt Hua, and Aunt Ma. It was really admirable that he seemed to be not at home usually, but he was able to recognize none of these people, and he even called them by their names. .
Some old women had very loud voices, and when they reached the steps, they yelled: "You have become his mother, congratulations today."
At this moment, Mrs. Wu couldn't care about the King of Jin, so she hurriedly came out from the inside and greeted: "We are happy together, thank you, please take a trip."
"What are you talking about, my eldest nephew marrying a daughter-in-law, I can't be an aunt? By the way, this is—"
These words were said to Xiao Bao in Wu Shi's arms. Xiao Bao did not escape Wu Shi's clutches in the end, and was being hugged by Wu Shi and was chatting with King Jin that Xiao Bao looked like his uncle, which was a good relationship with her. The old lady came, and she came out with Xiaobao in her arms.
"This doll looks really energetic. Look at this little boy, he looks like a little grown-up! It doesn't look like the grandson of your eldest daughter's family, could it be the younger daughter's?"
Mrs. Wu deserved it loudly, "It's the boss of the little girl's family, named Xiaobao. Xiaobao, quickly call grandma, this is your grandma Osmanthus fragrans."
Xiao Bao's embarrassed face said, "Grandma Osmanthus!"
"Oh, you are so eloquent. It looks like a little baby who will be a high-ranking official in the future. Come and give Grandma Osmanthus a hug. Let your grandma greet other people. Grandma Osmanthus will bring you candy!"
It could be seen that the old lady had a good relationship with Mrs. Wu, she hugged Xiaobao and went to the table next to her. In the middle of the table was a plate of dim sum and fruit, the dim sum was sugar cakes and sugar cakes, and the fruit plate was filled with melon seeds, peanuts, red dates and so on.
The table has not been opened yet, so let the first guests eat and play.
Yuchan has been watching from the sidelines, at first she was surprised at the openness of the old woman, seeing that she took Xiaobao away, she subconsciously followed her.
Here, the one Yao Cheng called Aunt Osmanthus had already sat down with Xiao Bao in her arms, and was peeling a handful of peanuts for him to eat.
"To eat peanuts, you need to eat the skin. The red skin is the most nourishing."
Seeing Yuchan coming so abruptly, Aunt Osmanthus took a look at her: "Which family are you from? Why hasn't Auntie seen you before? Are you a relative of the Su family?"
"I am, I am..." Yuchan couldn't answer for a while, she wanted to say it was a maid, but she was afraid it would be too abrupt.
Until Xiaobao called Yuchan, Aunt Osmanthus stopped asking her, and started asking herself: "Oh, you are from Yucheng's mother-in-law's family, aren't you? Come and sit down here."
This series of titles can make Yuchan confused, but I can understand the meaning. She is indeed from the palace, so that's it, she nodded hurriedly.
During this period, several old women came, most of them were women of the same age as Wu's. When you come, you talk to each other, some are chatting, some are talking nonsense, and some are boasting around Xiaobao, and by the way, they don't forget to praise Wu's good fortune.
"Hey, have you seen Yucheng's fucking little girl? Just now, when I said I was going to help in the kitchen, I was stopped by someone and I happened to bump into her. Tsk tsk tsk, I never saw her before, but today I saw her once, sir. It's really juicy and beautiful, and I don't know who is so lucky to marry such a beautiful little daughter-in-law."
As soon as Xiaobao heard that he was talking about his mother, he listened with pricked ears.
Someone laughed at him: "This kid is sensible and obedient."
"You talk about my mother, of course she knows."
Several old women were smiling, and one of them interjected: "The little girl is such a good character, I don't know if her man is here today?"
"Hey, don't tell me, the Su family has moved here for so long, and I haven't seen her little girl's man yet."
"These two are probably busy. Look at the little girl who is coming back today, and people who are like onions are also busy."
"Since he can be worthy of a little girl with such character, the man's character must not be bad."
"That's hard to say. I haven't heard a saying that a good man has no good wife, and a Lai Han marries a flower branch."
"Bah, bah, bah, what are you talking about, today is a happy day."
The old woman who said something wrong quickly pretended to slap herself in the face, and said with a smile: "Look at my mouth."
Before the words fell, Xiaobao suddenly called out: "Father!"
Following the sound of father, the eyes of several old women immediately turned to King Jin.
Mrs. Wu left in a hurry, and there were only two people left in the main room, King Jin and Erbao. Originally there was still red silk, but the red silk was ordered by King Jin to go out to help Yaoniang.
It is reasonable to say that people are not allowed to enter the main room casually, but today is different. From time to time, people come in to get things or come in to find someone.
People came in and took a look, and there was a man who looked like a painting sitting inside. He asked three questions, and the other party was embarrassed, and Jin Wang was also embarrassed.
King Jin didn't hold on much longer, so he came out with Er Bao in his arms. I wanted to find Yaoniang, but unfortunately I didn't see anyone. I was looking around when I heard Xiaobao's voice.
The old women were stunned for a moment, and then they came back to their senses.
"Is this the little girl's man?"
"The child is called Dad, so there is still a fake!"
"You look so handsome!"
These old women don't know how to write shyly, and they dare to speak. In fact, the elderly women in the market are like this. They are the elders, and the other party is a younger generation, so they are used to get close to the younger generation.
"Come on, come on, Yucheng is a man from his mother's little girl's family. Is there no place to sit, come sit here!"
Another poor man who was stunned by this series of names.
But King Jin came over because Xiaobao was here.
"Yucheng's mother is true, my uncle left it here and ignored it. Don't blame your child, your big brother is going to have a wedding today, and the family is so busy that they don't touch the ground."
"This is the second child in the family, he looks as fair and tender as his own brother."
"The young couple grow up well, and the children naturally grow up well."
"Come on, give grandma a hug."
Er Bao, a silly guy, stretched out his arms to be hugged by others, and smiled so hard that his teeth could not see his eyes, and several old women even praised this child for his kindness and righteousness, and he is a lively person.
Xiaobao was finally freed, he was hugged and fed a mouthful of peanuts. When he came to King Jin's arms, he looked back at his silly brother.
Anyway, Erbao likes to be lively, so he must be happy.
King Jin wanted to leave but failed, so the kind-hearted Aunt Osmanthus arranged for him to sit down at a nearby table.
"Don't go away, this person is quiet, and the firecrackers won't startle the children later. The banquet will start later, you are a distinguished guest as a son-in-law, I have to greet you for Yucheng's mother. "
Just as I was talking, there was a sudden sound of firecrackers outside, and the sedan chair to welcome the bride came back.
It feels like the surroundings are suddenly noisy, and they can't hear each other talking. King Jin saw that Er Bao was sitting in Aunt Osmanthus's arms, having his two little ears covered, and seeing someone beside him kept gesturing to him, he also clumsily learned how to cover Xiao Bao's ears.
The father and son looked at each other with a feeling of embarrassment but not disgust.
There are gongs and drums and firecrackers, which are deafening.
It seemed that many people poured in from outside all of a sudden, men and women, old and young. People surrounded the two sides, and a couple of newlyweds walked in from the outside holding red hydrangeas.
There were many people standing at the door of the main room. Su Xiucai and Mrs. Wu were hurriedly pushed in. Yaoniang seemed to be there too. In a flash, the newcomers entered the main room, and the surroundings became quiet. Someone was shouting lyrics: "Bless the world !"
"Second obeisance to the high hall!"
"Husband and wife salute!"
"Licheng, send the new couple into the new house."
…
The sky was also gradually getting dark, but there were bright red lanterns burning everywhere in the courtyard, so it didn't look dark.
Everyone is seated, and the table can start only after the food and wine are served.
There were voices and laughter everywhere, and as the head of the wedding banquet team stood in the courtyard and shouted: "The banquet is open!" several people came up with trays with various cold dishes on them.
The food came out quickly and was plentiful.
Thanks to Yao Cheng this time, according to what Su Xiucai said, just set up a few tables casually, but Yao Cheng said that there must be a lot of people at that time, so it is better to make it complete. Sure enough, on the right day, more people came to congratulate him than expected, and even a few small officials came from Wucheng Bingmasi and Shuntian Mansion.
They are not showy, but they are all polite and courteous, making the Su family repeatedly praise that the capital is different, and the officials are more friendly than those in other places.
How did they know that this was all for King Jin's face, in order not to attract people's attention, only small fish and shrimps came, but the real big fish wanted to come, for fear of self-defeating.
Half of the dishes were served quickly, and everyone started to eat.
Because the other tables were full of people, King Jin, who had no time to move, could only sit with a few old women.
But sitting here is also beneficial, everyone greeted Jin Wang to eat, Jin Wang actually didn't want to eat at all, but everyone greeted him, so he could only pick up chopsticks to eat, even Yu Chan was invited to eat.
It is so enthusiastic that people don't know how to do it.
Yaoniang was finally busy straightening things out, and only then did she think of King Jin. Thinking that she didn't care about him and didn't know how he was doing, she hurriedly came out from behind to take a look.
At a glance, he saw King Jin standing among a group of old women sitting at a table, with Xiaobao sitting on his lap, feeding Xiaobao with vegetables between chopsticks.
In fact, Xiaobao wanted to eat by himself, but a few old women refused to let him, saying that King Jin couldn't feed the child, so they just helped him.
Although Xiaobao liked these old ladies quite a lot, he didn't like them so much that he shared dishes and chopsticks with other people. He would not lose his grip on King Jin's lapel, and he held his little hands tightly. King Jin could only Said he came to feed it.
Embarrassed, Yaoniang wanted to laugh, and passed away in a strange mood, and asked, "Why are you sitting here? Brother-in-law didn't invite you to drink?"
"I'm here, I don't want to go."
In fact, Yao Cheng had just been here, but the people sitting at his table were all small officials, how could those people have the qualifications to sit at the table with King Jin. Sitting with those people, Jin Wang would rather sit with a few old women, just to have a leisurely time and not make trouble. In order not to cause trouble in the past, Jin Wang sat there, should he eat or not, and laugh or not? bad atmosphere!
"My daughter-in-law, you are done with your work. This girl is really filial and capable. Come and sit down and eat, she must be very tired."
Under the 'deterrence' of the old ladies, Yao Niang also sat down.
Sitting next to the King of Jin, he was in a strange mood listening to the old lady's mouthful of "sons and daughters-in-law", while eating dishes under the greetings of everyone.
While everyone was not paying attention, Yaoniang asked King Jin in a low voice: "Why do they call me my cousin and daughter-in-law?"
King Jin was embarrassed.
It's really embarrassing, I've never been so embarrassed in my life.
Just now when people asked him what to call him, he couldn't say that you should just call me His Royal Highness Jin Wang, he could only give his real name.
Zhao Youtang!
What a grand name!
Zhao, the royal family name!
Finally, it was reduced to Tangzi!
Yaoniang asked again, and King Jin said with a distorted expression: "I'll tell you when I go back!"
…
No matter how lively the scene is, there will always be a time to leave the table.
King Jin has been holding back all night, and he doesn't want to stay for a moment longer. In fact, he doesn't want to bump into those petty officials. Just now, someone was walking around and wanted to come over to toast, but because there were too many ladies during the banquet, they retreated.
Yaoniang went to say hello to Huiniang, and Huiniang also knew that Yaoniang's situation was different, so she didn't ask much, and told her to be careful on the road. Then, while the people at the banquet were leaving, King Jin and Yaoniang also left the gate of the Su family with Xiaobao Erbao and two maids.
The moon and stars are sparse, and the night breeze is cool.
The carriages and people from Prince Jin's Mansion were waiting outside the alley, so the way out of the alley had to be walked. Walking in this kind of alleyway, looking up to the sky, I always feel that the sky is very high.
"It's great, my brother is married too."
Yeah, that's great.
