Chapter 455 Slap in the face
At four quarters of noon (12:00), Daohua and his party arrived at Chen’s house Shi Shiran.
The reason for arriving so late was not that the Yan family wanted to harm the Chen family, but that Xiao Yeyang deliberately delayed it for a period of time. As a result, the Yan family, the Dong family, the Zhou family, and the Su family collectively arrived late.

Because the Chen family didn't invite Yan Siyu's family, Mrs. Yan's expression turned a bit bad when she found out this morning. When Daohua saw it, she complained to Xiao Yeyang who came to join them, and then this guy
I made an excuse to go to the hut, but didn't come until noon.
Originally, Mrs. Chen Hong was quite dissatisfied with the late arrival of the Yan family, but when she saw Xiao Yeyang, Yan Zhigao and others coming together, her face immediately put on a warm smile.
If it were other members of the royal family, Chen Hong might not be so interested, but Xiao Yeyang, even though he was far away from Kyoto, was still talked about by the emperor from time to time.
He knew that every year during the holidays, the emperor would send someone to give him something. This shows how much this young prince has won the emperor's heart.
Yan Zhigao cupped his fists and said with a smile: "Mr. Chen, I'm really sorry, we are late, please don't mind!"
Even if Chen Hong cared about it in his heart, he didn't show it at all at this time: "Master Yan, you are so polite. I am extremely happy that you can come."
When Xiao Yeyang saw the carriage Daohua was sitting on entering the door, he looked away, looked at Chen Hong, and said, "It's not my fault, Mr. Yan and the others, it's me. I had a stomachache this morning and wasted some time."<
/p>
Hearing this, Chen Hong kept saying it was no problem, but he started to think about it in his heart.
Little Prince, does this mean that he also lives in Yan Mansion?
Chen Hong smiled and invited everyone in. When he saw Xiao Yeyang and Yan Zhigao walking side by side, their words and deeds were very polite, and his heart was suddenly shocked.
It seems that the relationship between the young prince and the Yan family is deeper than he imagined!
Weeping flower door.
Mrs. Chen stepped forward with a smile and greeted Mrs. Li and others.
Because the Dong family, Zhou family, and Su family lived in the Yan family, when the three ladies came over, they stood back half a step and let Mrs. Li go in front.
However, Mrs. Chen bypassed Mrs. Li, directly took the hands of Mrs. Dong and Mrs. Su, and exchanged warm and intimate greetings.
The smile on Mrs. Li's face was a little stiff, but she quickly adjusted it.
When Mrs. Zhou saw her, she smiled and took her arm, and whispered: "Don't mind, people from Kyoto have a pair of snobbish eyes."
Mrs. Li smiled and shook her head: "I'm not afraid of your laughter. I've encountered this kind of thing a lot before, but I've encountered less of it since I came to Ningmen Mansion. Now that I've encountered it all of a sudden, I'm a little unfamiliar."

Mrs. Zhou couldn't help laughing when she heard what Mrs. Li said was funny.
When Mrs. Chen heard this, she immediately looked over and asked with a smile: "What is Mrs. Zhou laughing at?"
Mrs. Zhou pointed to the girl in purple in front of the hanging flower door without changing her expression: "I am telling Mrs. Li, which family is this girl from? She is so beautiful?"
Mrs. Chen showed a proud smile on her face: "Mrs. Zhou, please stop boasting, this is my incompetent daughter." After saying that, she waved to the girl in purple, "Jiarou, why don't you come over here and meet a few of them?
Madam."
Chen Jiarou walked over in a graceful manner and said with a smile to everyone: "Jiarou would like to send my regards to all the ladies."
Mrs. Dong smiled and helped her up, looked at Mrs. Chen and praised: "Miss Chen is so beautiful!"
Chen Jiarou lowered her head in shame.
Mrs. Chen smiled modestly and said: "In terms of beauty, nothing can compare with these girls you brought here, Mrs. Dong."
Mrs. Dong said at the right time: "Yuan Yao, why don't you bring your sisters over to see Mrs. Chen."
Dong Yuanyao and others immediately stepped forward to salute.
Mrs. Chen exclaimed with a smile, and then glanced at the girls several times. She sighed in her heart that her Jia Rou was already good enough, and she was one of the top beauties in the capital. She didn't expect that there were actually such beautiful women in Zhongzhou.
On par with it.
The girls from the Dong family are bright and lively; the girls from the Su family are as gentle as water; the girls from the Zhou family are cute and cute; and the girls from the Yan family also have their own characteristics.
However, the most eye-catching among the girls is the eldest daughter of the Yan family, who is smart and elegant, and forgets all the vulgarity.
This Yan family knows how to educate their children!
Chen Jiarou was also looking at several girls. Finally, her eyes fell on Daohua. Although the other girls were also good, they could still find beauties similar to them in the capital. Only this girl, Yan, had the agility and aura around her.
Rarely seen.
After Chen Jiarou, Daohua and others had met, Mrs. Chen smiled and led everyone to the backyard banquet.
Ambassador Dong is the highest official in Zhongzhou, and Yan Zhigao is the highest official in Ningmen Mansion. As soon as Mrs. Dong and Mrs. Li appeared, all the female relatives in the courtyard came forward to say hello.
Mrs. Li and others hurriedly greeted everyone and went to see Mrs. Chen at the main table.
This is the emperor's wet nurse, so the necessary respect cannot be lacking.
Old Mrs. Chen looks very kind, and she is also very humble and kind. Only the occasional flash of light in her eyes makes people know that she is a shrewd old lady: "Excuse me for coming to my banquet, please take a seat as soon as possible."

Mrs. Chen was a little dissatisfied with the late arrival of the Yan family, and took over with a smile: "Yes, Mrs. Li, please hurry up and take a seat. Everyone is hungry and is waiting for you to sit down before the dinner starts."
Hearing this, Mrs. Li frowned immediately. Mrs. Chen's words were really uncomfortable, as if she was saying that she wasted everyone's time.
Thinking of the emperor behind the Chen family, Mrs. Li suppressed the depression in her heart and said nothing.
Mrs. Li could bear it, but Daohua couldn't. She said directly: "Please don't blame Mrs. Chen. It will be my grandmother's birthday in a few days. There are too many things to do at home."
"Our family only received the post yesterday afternoon. The preparation time was too short, so we were a little rushed today. If Mrs. Chen can post the post earlier next time, we won't be late."
As soon as these words came out, the yard suddenly became a little quiet.
Daohua's meaning is very straightforward and obvious. There is a reason why they arrived late. It is because the Chen family was not thoughtful and did not post the message in advance, which caught them off guard.
Mrs. Chen's face was a little stiff, and the smile on her face was a bit unbearable. She was used to talking in roundabout ways and innuendos. When she encountered someone who expressed her thoughts so directly, she didn't know how to deal with it.
Old Mrs. Chen glanced at her daughter-in-law with some resentment, and couldn't help but regret again in her heart, regretting that she had married her son such an incomprehensible daughter-in-law.
Mr. Yan is the magistrate of Ningmen Prefecture. His son will definitely have to deal with others in the future. If he offends people when he comes, how will he get along with him in the future?
My son knows that he doesn't have much ability, so he is still loyal.
The emperor attaches great importance to gold mining. If this job cannot be done well, how will the Chen family gain a foothold in front of the emperor in the future?
