Chapter 155: Banquet

The second day was full moon wine for Ren Shijia’s newborn child.
Mr. Ren and Mrs. Ren led the sons and grandchildren of the Ren family to the Lin Mansion, and the Liu family, who came from afar on behalf of the Fang family, took his son with him.
Parsley said enthusiastically on the full moon gift that the old lady Ren had prepared for her grandson: "...a pair of red gold unicorn bracelets, a pair of red gold longevity locks, a pair of Hetian jade double beast longevity locks, six There is a big box of clothes, hats and socks, and a big red envelope. I heard that the old lady originally disliked these things and wanted to prepare more and was persuaded by the old lady, so the old lady’s red envelope was probably at least that number." Parsley stretched out his fingers and gestured.
Ren Yaohua glanced at her: "Are you panicking all day?"
Xiangqian shrank her neck and leaned against Ren Yaoqi, with some grievances on her face, saying: "The slave and maid just thought, when we came out, the wife only prepared a collar, a golden abacus, plus six. Is Bailiang's silver a little bit less? In case the other rooms look at the old lady loving grandson more, then our three rooms are..."
Ren Yaohua hummed lightly: "Who do you think is stupid?"
Xiangqin smiled and said, "Naturally only slaves are stupid."
Ren Yaohua casually said: "To this kind of gift list, everyone has negotiated in advance, and there is not much difference between each room." Ren Yaohua recently followed Mother Zhou in academic affairs and also included these friendships.
For the situation like the full moon wine of the Lin family, the people of the Ren family discussed it as early as when they left Baihe Town, or the family had a general standard for this kind of human relationship, and every time they met such a happy event When you follow the convention set at home, you can’t go wrong. Therefore, Ren Yaohua is not worried that his mother will upset the old lady Ren in this matter.
Parsley touched his nose, not daring to make a noise. The carriage was immediately quieter.
The full moon wine that the Lin family gave to Lin Cen this time was quite grand. When the Ren family's carriage arrived at the Lin Mansion, they saw several carriages parked at the door, and the Ren family's arrival was still early.
The ancestral home of the Lin family was very large. The old man and the men of the Ren family were greeted away by the uncle Lin Kun who was waiting at the door when the news was received. When the family members got off the bus, there would have been women and maids waiting at the door. Finished.
Ren Yaoqi and the Ren family's sisters were greeted into the second door behind the old lady Ren, and went directly to Ren Shijia's courtyard.
Originally, the old lady said politely whether she wanted to meet with the old lady first, but was told by the Lin family’s wife that they had already gone to the sixth wife’s yard, the sixth wife of the Lin family pointed out It was Ren Shijia, and if my uncle Lin Kun walked in the row of Lin's house, it would be line six.
The yard of Ren Shijia and Lin Kun is very spacious for the Lin family, and it is also close to Mrs. Lin's yard, because Lin Kun grew up with Mrs. Lin when he was young.
Sure enough, Mrs. Ren’s aunt, Mrs. Lin, was sitting on the south kang of Ren Shijia’s room by the window, holding Xiaolin Cen's funny child. Ren Shijia sat next to him, Mrs. Lin and several other female relatives of the Lin family. They are all seated aside, the spacious Ming room and the next room are very lively.
As soon as Mrs. Ren entered the house, Mrs. Lin took the fifth wife, Lin who came back to her natal family first, and stood up to greet her first: "Oh, in-laws are here, hurry up and take a seat."
Mrs. Lin's enthusiastic and undisturbed voice rang out in the room. For a while, the room was younger than Mrs. Lin's generation and stood up, and followed Mrs. Lin to welcome people. Although the fifth wife had been with Mrs. Ren a while ago There was some friction between the wives, but under the constant suggestion of his mother, he stepped forward to salute the old lady, and then cleverly held the hand of the old lady.
Ren Shijia, who was sitting on the kang, was also very happy to see that her mother's family had come, and the maid beside her hurriedly stepped forward to put on her shoes. The old lady Lin, who was sitting opposite her, still held the child without letting go, smiled and said to the old lady Ren who came in: "Why are you here now? Our brother Cen has been waiting for a long time, isn't it? "The last sentence is for the child who is only full moon in her hands, and the tone is very pampering and intimate.
The Lin family is a big family. There are more than ten female relatives who followed Mrs. Lin. After getting off the kang, Ren Shijia came forward and held the other arm of the old lady. The voices of greeting each other continued, a room The people are very close.
With the support of Ren Shijia and the Lin family, Mrs. Ren stepped forward to salute Mrs. Lin. Mrs. Lin was the aunt of Mrs. Ren, and she received her courtesy well. However, she still gave the child in her hand to the nurse, helped the old lady Ren, and smiled: "Okay, you are getting older, so what are you toss about!"
Ren Yaoqi also followed several sisters to the ceremony. Old Mrs. Lin glanced over their faces one by one, while pulling old Mrs. Ren to sit on the kang with a smile and asked: "Look at these one by one, they look so good. Like water onions, who is your fifth girl?"
Mrs. Lin is a decade older than Mrs. Ren, but she is well maintained. Although some silver threads are exposed on the forehead adorned with emeralds, she still does not make her look old, because the brow bones are relatively small. She is tall, her eyebrows are slightly thin, and she looks a little majestic, but her smile now makes her look very amiable.
When Ren Yaoqi heard that she was named, she raised her head, and the eyes of the old lady Lin stopped immediately on her face: "Are you a five girl?"
Ren Yao was blessed and whispered: "Yes, grandmother aunt."
There were a lot of people in the room, and suddenly a lot of eyes looked at Ren Yaoqi.
The old lady Lin didn't say anything, she just praised Ren Yaoqi a few words, and then asked Ren Yaoyin and Ren Yaohua.
But a lively girl from the Lin family pulled Ren Yaoyu's sleeves and whispered: "Cousin, this is the fifth sister of your family who has a good personal relationship with the princess and swims in the inner city river together?"
Although her voice was not loud, it was not whispering. Many people in the room heard it, and the other ladies of the Lin family looked at Ren Yaoqi curiously.
Xiao Jinglin didn’t have any friends in Yunyang City, and she didn’t even have close contacts with the young ladies of her grandmother’s maiden Yun family. As for other aristocratic ladies who want to be close to the princess, Xiao Jinglin has always been indifferent. Because it is impossible to say go together.
However, as the only daughter of the Yanbei King and the princess, Xiao Jinglin is still very much concerned in Yanbei, so the wives in Yunyang City have heard of the things that Xiao Jinglin had made with Miss Ren Jiawu. Not to mention the fact that the county lord of the Duanyang Festival invited Ren Yaoqi to tour the inner city river. The landlord and Wu Yiyu are still in a big fight. The inner city river of Yunyang city has basically never been driven by a private boat. Among the aristocratic ladies in the north, Ren Yaoqi is also the first one.
Ren Yaoyu returned to her grandmother's house in the past few days, her spirits have improved a lot, and she has recovered some of her former vivacity. However, she is still a little really scared of Mrs. Ren now. Hearing that she just poked her lips and did not dare to mess in front of her. speak.
But the fifth wife, Lin, smiled and said to her nieces: "The friendship between our five girls and the princess is really good. A while ago, the princess went to Baihe Town to find the five princesses. Wait for the next time the princess will go. Rowing, let the five girls also ask you to go together."
The fifth wife suffered a big loss a while ago, but recently she is enjoying a good time because of restoring the good old days with the fifth master. She is always good for face and she likes to show her prestige in front of her maiden sisters and sisters. She originally said this to make herself bright in front of her natal family, and she also thought that it was to earn face for her in-laws and not to make her unhappy.
I didn't want her to make such a casual promise to make the little girl who had just questioned me missed it. She stepped forward and took Ren Yaoqi's arm and shook her and asked, "Cousin Fifth, really? I haven't taken a boat before."
Ren Yaoqi was very unhappy with the fifth wife's self-talk, but she was not good at it. Just about to say a few words to expose the topic, it was Lin's mother, Mrs. Lin Da, who took the initiative to stand up for Ren Yaoqi.
She patted the little the head lightly, and said with a smile: "Your aunt is joking with you, and the painting is not your fifth cousin's. How can you say that you can treat guests if you can? And the inner city river is not allowed to sail, listen Said that after the princess went back last time, he was preached by the princess."
The little girl stuck her tongue out and wrinkled her nose at the fifth wife: "My aunt just likes to tease us." The innocent and lively appearance made everyone laugh.
Mrs. Lin Da smiled at Ren Yaoqi, with some comfort in her loving smile.
It has to be said that compared to Mrs. Lin Da's shrewdness and know-how, the daughter she gave birth to is really... Ren Yaoqi can only shake his head mentally.
This matter has been revealed, and Mrs. Ren and Mrs. Lin really sat on the kang and talked intimately, seemingly not thinking about the episode here.
One after another, many female relatives of people close to the Lin family came. From this time, it can be seen that the yard that the Lin family gave to Ren Shijia is extremely spacious, and so many people will not make people feel crowded. .
The ladies of the Lin family are very enthusiastic about Ren Yaoqi. The girl who said that she had never been in a boat before was especially curious about the relationship between Ren Yaoqi and Xiao Jinglin, but the little girl’s magnanimous face and curious and quick-talking appearance made people so happy. Sorry to really hate her. This little girl is Lin Baoling, the third roommate of the Lin family.
In Lin Baoling's generation, there are only four girls in the Lin family. Two of them are still concubine. Compared with a dozen males, they can be regarded as true yang and yin decline. The scarcity is more expensive, so the Lin family is more favored than the young master.
Ren Yaoqi and the Ren family’s sisters accompany the three young ladies of the Lin family to socialize, and the wife came in outside to report that "the old lady in Aquarius Hutong" is here.
This report made the room quiet, and the original laughter was like being cut off suddenly, very weird.
Ren Yaoqi was also slightly taken aback. She knew that the term "the old lady in Aquarius Hutong" actually referred to her grandmother Fei Xian Wang Zhengfei. Because of her embarrassment, the female relatives in Yunyang City called her "the old lady in Aquarius Hutong". RS
