Chapter 109 Sour
After watching Rong Chenghan finish the apprenticeship ceremony, Prince Yongjing chatted with Mr. Liu Er and others, excused himself to something, and left. Rong Chenghan was left behind. At noon, Mr. Liu Er wanted to hold a small banquet.
, entertain Rong Chenghan.
After seeing off Prince Yongjing, Master Liu Er took Rong Chenghan to the study, and Master Liu and Master Liu San also accompanied him. Mrs. Liu wanted to return to the backyard, so Mrs. Liu Er and Liu Ruosi accompanied Liu.
old lady.
When they arrived at Old Mrs. Liu's yard, Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Liu Third, and Grandma Liu came out with Liu Ruoyuan, Liu Ruojuan, Liu Ruoshan, the eldest sister, the second sister, and the senior official. Everyone entered the house.
, first he helped Old Mrs. Liu take off her makeup and put on homely clothes. The little girls served tea and snacks, and everyone chatted with Old Mrs. Liu.
"It's rare for the old prince to come here, why didn't he stay for a meal? The wives still thought that they must stay for a meal." Mrs. Liu said to Mrs. Liu.
"The old prince is now the anchor of the imperial court," Old Mrs. Liu said with a smile. Prince Yongjing is only slightly younger than Mrs. Liu, but the titles are there, but when he met Old Mrs. Liu, he didn't feel the same at all.
Canada, was very polite to Mrs. Liu, and even praised the late Mr. Liu, which made Mrs. Liu very happy. "Being able to take the time to come to our house is something I never expected."
King Yongjing did not stay, but Rong Chenghan did.
"You will prepare the menu later and show it to me. I am quite good at making a few dishes in my small kitchen. Although I can't say they are as good as Yuci's banquet, they are not much different. When the time comes,
Instruct them to do it properly. Even though they have accepted the second master as their teacher and are entertaining the young prince, they should not be sloppy." Old Mrs. Liu specially ordered Mrs. Liu Er, her attitude was very kind.
Mrs. Liu Er quickly stood up and agreed.
"If the daughter-in-law can't make up her mind, it's up to the old lady to make the decision." Mrs. Liu Er said with a smile.
"Well, you drew it up and showed it to me. Of course I will consider it for you." Old Mrs. Liu was also quite satisfied with Mrs. Liu Er's attitude.
Rong Chenghan became a disciple of Mr. Liu Er and agreed that whenever he had free time in the future, he would come to the Liu family to study and ask for advice. If things go on like this, he is not afraid that the old prince will not come again. Although the Liu family is a pure family, it can have a close relationship with the Yongjing Prince's Palace.
For the reputation of the Liu family, it is naturally of great benefit to the several children and grandchildren who are now officials in the court.
"Old lady, why are we hosting a small banquet and not a big banquet?" Mrs. Liu San asked hurriedly. Now she is in charge of the kitchen, but just now Mrs. Liu took her words away and acted like she was in charge of the household affairs. Mrs. Liu San asked Mrs. Liu San
Very unhappy.
"It's a small banquet, and it will only be held in the second master's yard." Old Mrs. Liu said, "It's the young prince's request. He doesn't want to disturb us too much... We have a long time to come."
That means it cannot be changed.
"If you need anything, just send someone to tell me. If you don't have it, ask someone to buy it immediately." Mrs. Liu San said to Mrs. Liu Er with a smile.
They were discussing the matter of setting up a banquet here for a while. Liu Ruosi had already been pulled to the short kang aside by Liu Ruoshan and asked about the meeting with King Yongjing and Rong Chenghan just now. Liu Ruosi just said,
Her tone was light. Although she was very dissatisfied with Rong Chenghan's apprenticeship, she could not express her emotions in front of Liu Ruoshan.
The two of them were talking here. Liu Ruoyuan also followed Liu Ruojuan. After listening to what Liu Ruosi said, Liu Ruoyuan snorted from her nose, seeming to be quite disdainful.
"They all say that the old prince is a hero and a pillar of the imperial court. In my opinion, he is nothing more than that."
"What do you say?" Liu Ruoshan raised her eyebrows. Whatever Liu Ruoyuan agreed to, Liu Ruoshan would oppose it. And if Liu Ruoyuan opposed it, Liu Ruoshan would definitely agree. Listening to Liu Ruoyuan's tone, Liu Ruoshan had automatically sided with King Yongjing.
Liu Ruosi also looked at Liu Ruoyuan, wanting to hear what she had to say.
"Fortunately, he is still a prince. He doesn't know about such common etiquette." Liu Ruoyuan glanced sideways at Liu Ruosi, "If you want to meet people in the family, you must pay attention to the elders and younger ones. There is no need to call us,
But he asked the third sister to go. Besides, he is a male guest after all. If he wants to see the younger members of the family, he should go to the elder brother and Heidi."
Speaking of this, it seems that Liu Yuhai and others are in Zongxue, while Liu Yujiang is away on business and not at home.
"Even if you're not at home, just send someone to call."
"Hee hee." Liu Ruoshan laughed and pointed at Liu Ruoyuan's nose, embarrassing Liu Ruoyuan, "It turns out that the eldest sister is jealous. She is all dressed up and wants to go to the front to meet the old prince and the young prince. It's a pity that they don't have any
I don’t want to see you. No, they don’t know you exist at all! Now I’m here to criticize the third sister, why didn’t I say that when I dressed up?”
Liu Ruoshan said a few words and talked about Liu Ruoyuan's real illness. Liu Ruoyuan became angry and her face turned red.
"You are telling me that you are not the same?"
"How can I be like the eldest sister?" Liu Ruoshan had the upper hand and was not annoyed at all. She deliberately hugged Liu Ruoshan's arm and showed her to Liu Ruoyuan in a show of intimacy, "Third sister saw it and also saw me.
It’s the same. I’m not like you. I just hope that you’ll be happy if any of the sisters can’t compare to you. But you’ll feel uncomfortable if anyone gets a little better. But who is that!”
Liu Ruoshan said and gave Liu Ruoyuan a blank look.
They became excited and spoke loudly, and Mrs. Liu heard them from the couch.
"You little sisters, don't make any noise." Old Mrs. Liu said to this side, "The old prince is here today to bring the young prince to become a disciple, and he is the father of the third girl. The old prince wants to see the third girl, that is
Respecting the father of the third girl, this is where the old prince knows his courtesy."
The implication of Mrs. Liu's words is that Mr. Liu only has one daughter, Liu Ruosi. If the old prince wants to see him, of course he can only see her. If Liu Ruosi has brothers, it will be different. Of course, some people may think that even if Liu Ruosi has a brother, it will be different.
In this way, King Yongjing could also call Mr. Liu's nephew and Liu Ruosi's cousin to come out to meet him. But King Yongjing did not do this.
It can be seen that King Yongjing is a very reasonable person and is not so pedantic and secular.
In many things, King Yongjing is indeed such a person, and it is commendable that King Yongjing does not look down on women. However, in other matters, King Yongjing has some persistence that ordinary people do not have, and even cannot understand.
.
For example, in the case of Rong Chenghan, of course, as outsiders, they can't see this now. Only those who know the people in the palace can know what King Yongjing is thinking.
When Old Mrs. Liu spoke, Liu Ruoyuan muttered a few words and stopped dwelling on this issue.
"...I can't see anything. I just see a big beard all over my face, like a wild man. I think he is too ugly, so he should use a beard to cover up his ugliness." Liu Ruoyuan actually laughed at Rong Chenghan, as if this was the case.
It hit Liu Ruosi.
Some people said that Rong Chenghan was not good, and Liu Ruosi should have been happy, but this person was Liu Ruoyuan, and the purpose was to hit her. Liu Ruosi frowned, feeling a little complicated.
"Watching it from a distance makes people's hearts beat wildly with fear. The third sister is so close, so she is not going to be scared to death." Seeing Liu Ruosi frowning, Liu Ruoyuan mistakenly thought that what she said really hurt Liu Ruosi.
Si, he said more vigorously.
"When did eldest sister see... the young prince?" Liu Ruosi suddenly asked.
Liu Ruoyuan suddenly became speechless.
Liu Ruoshan was nearby, covering her mouth and laughing, with a look of embarrassment on her face.
Liu Ruosi turned to look at Liu Ruoshan.
"Our good eldest sister is the most polite and well-behaved person. When people didn't ask her to go out to meet, she couldn't bear it. She ran to the front secretly without fear of being seen and making fun of our Liu family for having no rules. Big sister is embarrassed.
Even if he loses his own, he will always spare us." Liu Ruoshan told Liu Ruoshan, and at the same time used words to stab Liu Ruoyuan.
Liu Ruosi glanced at Liu Ruoyuan and knew that Liu Ruoshan's words were not false. She did not see Liu Ruoyuan in the front school hall. She thought that although Liu Ruoyuan was brave, she did not dare to get too close, fearing that everyone would go out.
When sending King Yongjing off, he peeked at Rong Chenghan and King Yongjing from a distance.
"I wonder what the old lady would think if she knew that elder sister did this, and then heard what elder sister said." Liu Ruosi smiled.
However, Liu Ruoshan was reminded and hurriedly got off the short bed and came to Old Mrs. Liu. In this way, she complained to Old Mrs. Liu.
Mrs. Liu's eyes when she looked at Liu Ruoyuan were not so kind.
"The eldest wife is still sick, so you don't need to stay with me here. It's just to entertain the young prince. It's enough to have the second wife, the third wife, and the eldest grandma... I took the eldest girl back and taught her a lesson."
Just behave."
Liu Ruoyuan had an angry look on her face, but she couldn't get angry. She could only glare at Liu Ruosi and Liu Ruoshan hatefully, and was led out by Mrs. Liu. Liu Ruoyuan followed the two of them quietly and left.
"Looking more and more like a ghost shadow." Liu Ruoshan felt that Liu Ruojuan was very ghostly, so she patted her chest and said.
At noon, a banquet was set up in Mrs. Liu Er's yard. Liu Ruosi was led by Mrs. Liu Er and sat at the banquet. Liu Ruosi was not willing to do so at first, but she thought about leaving alone.
Rong Chenghan was with Mr. Liu Er and Mrs. Liu Er, and he was afraid that he would please his parents even more. With her watching, at least she felt confident, so she did not refuse.
Liu Yuwen was also brought back from the Zongxue by Mr. Liu Er and sat with him.
There were not many dishes at the banquet, but each dish was carefully selected. Mr. Liu Er found out that Rong Chenghan was good at drinking, and asked Mrs. Liu Er to dig out a jar of pear blossoms buried under the pear tree in the courtyard.
