Chapter 97: The Master and Disciple of Food

Guests are coming one after another.

The old lady brought a crowd outside to greet her.

As Duke Chen rose, many colleagues came. Duke Chen took Chen Shoucheng and his son and nephew to meet people in the officialdom, while the old lady took Yuan Changsun and several granddaughters to socialize with his wives.

Mrs. Jiangning Hou did not bring Changsun Yan'er, but only brought two maids, dressed as luxuriously as before, with graceful attitude and elegant temperament.

"My wife appreciates her face, I am very grateful!" The old lady said happily.

Mrs. Jiangning Hou had a decent smile on her face, "You are so kind to say that, our two families almost got married."

"It's an old granddaughter who is not lucky." The old lady was stunned for a moment, but she didn't expect that Mrs. Jiangning Hou would tell this matter so directly.

Mrs. Jiangning Hou smiled and looked at Jinning meaningfully, "Miss Three looks more energetic today than before."

Jin Ning is blessed, "Thank you, my wife for the praise."

The old lady personally welcomed her in, arranged for Changsun to stay in the house to greet her, and went out to greet her himself.

Princess Ping'an and Mrs. Yasukuni came together.

Princess Ping'an held Prince Huilin, and Princess Rui'an held Mrs. Jingguo Hou.

Seeing this, the old lady hurriedly took Yuan up.

"I have met the princess and have met the lady!"

Princess Ping'an smiled and said, "I'm upsetting my old lady today."

The old lady smiled and said, "It is my honor to be able to appreciate my face."

Mrs. Yasukuni was wearing a green satin dress today, half old, and the jewelry was very simple. She didn't smile and had a more majestic face. Perhaps because she was following the Empress Dowager all year round, it always made people feel that she felt a sense of coldness that was difficult to get close to.

The old lady looked at Princess Ruian beside Mrs. Jingguohou, and greeted him again, "Princess!"

Princess Ruian looked a little impatient, "Can you go in? It's so hot!"

The old lady hurriedly said, "I'm neglected. Princess quickly invites me to drink a bowl of sour plum soup."

She turned around and directed Chen Jinluo, "You take the princess..."

Princess Ruian pointed at Jinning and said, "Take me there."

Jinning smiled, "Okay, please, princess!"

The two walked quickly in, and Jinning smiled and said, "The princess is wearing very beautiful clothes today."

Princess Ruian wore a red outfit today, which was very energetic.

"It seems like you have seen me." Princess Ruian glared at her warningly.

Jinning shrugged, "Yes, I see you again."

The Changsun family saw Jinning bringing Princess Ruian over from a distance. She went in and pulled Chen Liangzhu over and said with a smile: "Isn't this Princess Ruian?"

Princess Ruian glanced at her lightly and said without hesitation: "Are you the second wife of Duke Chen? The stepmother of the Prince of Ning'an?"

Changsun smiled awkwardly, "Yes, the princess still remembers me."

She pushed Chen Liangzhu for a moment. Chen Liangzhu kept looking at Princess Rui'an in a daze. Since he had seen her last time, he had been obsessed with it. Now that he saw her again, his eyes couldn't be removed. When Changsun pushed him, he realized, "Princess, do you still remember me?"

Princess Rui'an glanced at him, but didn't answer, and just pulled Jinning into it.

Chen Liangzhu smiled and turned to look at her back, "Mother, she is so beautiful."

Seeing that she was so rude, Changsun really lived up to the reputation of being rude, and he didn't like her very much. Such a arrogant woman would not obey her discipline even after passing the door. She would marry a more obedient person and would be able to be treated in the future.

"Stop watching, I can't afford to climb." Changsun said angrily.

"Why can't you stand up? I'm going to marry her!" Chen Liangzhu snorted and went in.

Changsun was so angry that there was no worry-free product.

One after another, the guests were almost there.

The men were talking loudly in the main hall, while the old lady led the ladies and ladies to the yard to enjoy the flowers.

After watching for a while, Mrs. Jingguo Hou and Princess Ping'an sat back in the pavilion and rested. In the pavilion, Mrs. Jiangning Hou had already sat in it and rested.

The old lady also brought several ladies over and sat down together.

Princess Ping'an smiled and said, "Why don't the old lady look at it for a while?"

The old lady smiled and said, "I am old and I feel tired after walking a few steps."

Mrs. Jingguo looked at her, "The old lady is still strong."

"Mrs. Jingguo Hou laughed." The old lady asked Mrs. Yuan to come up to refill the tea for everyone, and asked someone to serve pastries.

After sitting for a while, no one said anything, mainly because Mrs. Yasukuni was there.

She is very serious, with a strong aura, and no one can start talking about the topic at will.

Seeing the awkward atmosphere, the Lady Shangshu smiled and said to the old lady: "The old lady is so lucky, and the granddaughters all look like flowers."

The old lady waved her hand, "Hey, I'm really worried about this. My eldest granddaughter has not yet been settled. Please pay more attention to it, the old lady is very grateful."

Everyone was stunned. Didn’t her eldest granddaughter Chen Jinrui be retired? And she was disfigured. What else should I pay attention to?

Chen Jinrui listened aside, feeling ashamed.

Jin Ning had just come over with Princess Ruian and stood outside. He smiled faintly when he heard this. How could the old lady have misled her tongue? It was just intentional.

Sure enough, the old lady patted her forehead and smiled and said, "Look at me, I really have no memory. I am my second granddaughter."

Everyone then smiled relievedly, looked at Chen Jinxian, and exclaimed: "The second lady is generous and decent, and looks like a flower. What's the old lady worried about?"

The old lady said sadly: "Oh, one of the family was abandoned, and the other was broken up and was not involved with Eunuch Su. She has a bad reputation. Moreover, the sisters have not yet reconciled, so how can I not worry? Here are all the wives who are virtuous women who manage the inner house. Why don't you give me some ideas for me?"

One of the key points that everyone noticed was that she said that Jinning and Eunuch Su were unclear.

Eunuch Su protected Chen Jinning, and everyone else said that they were master-apprentice relationships, while others said that it was because Eunuch Su had liked Zhen in the past, but not many people knew about the truth.

Princess Ping'an said lightly: "What's the matter? It's natural for the master to protect his disciples. Master, that's half of the father."

The old lady said, "What the princess said is not bad. Those who know think it is like this. If you don't know, how can you guess? The old woman has only been back for a few days and heard people outside say something unbearable. A few days ago, my Ning'er stayed at the General Administration for a few days. She was going to be filial to her master, but some people said that Eunuch Su was looking for her to eat. Alas, such words are unbearable, so why don't people be angry and worried?"

It was really shocking to say such food from the old lady's mouth.

Are there really such speculations outside? Why haven’t they heard of it?

Isn’t this kind of speculation absurd?

However, the old lady is Chen Jinning's grandmother, so she would never say that for no reason.

And today she said it, there was a suspicion of explanation. Could it be that today's banquet was also specially designed to clarify the matter?
