Chapter 182 Family Banquet
Author: Nan Huaisheng Song
Her charming lips raised slightly, and she didn't seem to be annoyed at all, "Miss Shen, take good care of herself and come to her house to give her betrothal gifts in person another day."
Before Su Wunian could answer, he whipped away, leaving only a touch of elegant light blue back.
Chu Li also followed him and left.
On the way, he passed by a Shen Mansion carriage. Chen Mengli in the carriage lifted up the curtain just to silently look at Chu Muchen.
But his eyes never stayed for himself for a moment.
When I got off the carriage at Chen Mansion, I saw my mother asking Chen Shengge about her well-being, and her warm face was against Chen Shengge's cold butt.
When she came back, she turned a blind eye and placed all her eyes on Chen Shengge.
I was so angry that I was so angry that the handkerchief tightly held in my hand that I wanted to tear it apart.
At night.
In order to create the image of her good wife and mother, Zhang Zhilan also showed off to the second and third rooms. Chen Shengge, which she taught, is now attracted by General Chu, which shows that Chen Shengge was taught well by her.
Otherwise, how could he be favored by General Chu, who is of great reputation and valued by His Majesty?
Therefore, she set up a welcome banquet for Chen Shengge to celebrate her good marriage.
Chen Mengzhi, who was raised by her, was demoted to a commoner in the palace and ended up miserably. She was scolded by Mrs. Zhu, who was in the third room, with a gun and a stick.
In addition, Chen Shengge was demoted to a palace maid, so she couldn't raise her head in front of the old lady and the prime minister. Even the noble ladies outside began to say that she would not raise her daughter.
But who would have expected that General Chu would ask His Majesty for marrying Chen Shengge in front of all civil and military officials! This made her reputation turn upside down.
At the banquet, Zhang Zhilan talked and laughed, and the smile on his face never stopped.
The second and third uncles all congratulated each other repeatedly. Although Mrs. Zhu was unhappy, she could at least be able to live up to her face.
The old lady said she was unwell and did not attend.
Chen Pingyan was stern throughout the whole process. It was not that his daughter was about to get married, but that he didn't expect that his daughter would one day marry the son of his mortal rival Chu Yijing.
His daughter can marry a pig or a dog, but she can't marry into his Chu family!
But his Majesty gave him a marriage, and there was no turning around in this matter, and he had no choice but to do anything.
After a few glasses of wine, the more he looked at Chen Shengge, the more he disliked him. He could only vent his anger on Chen Shengge.
"What method did you use? Is Chu Muchen interested in you?" It was a family banquet and there were no outsiders, so he called Chu Muchen's name.
Suddenly, the family banquet that was originally peaceful became silent, and they all looked at Chen Pingjia and Chen Shengge.
Su Wunian slowly put down the chopsticks in his hand and wiped the oil stains on the corner of his mouth with a veil. "What can I do? What method do you think is it, what method is it."
"You-" Chen Pingyan didn't expect her to answer so fearlessly. In addition, she was drunk and was half drunk, and her whole face was blushed or she was angry.
"You are simply shameless!" Chen Pingyan was furious and threw the chopsticks in his hand towards Su Wunian.
Chopsticks hit the soup bowl, splashing a splash of water.
Su Wunian stood up and avoided it. The water in the soup bowl splashed on Chen Mengli, who was sitting beside him, but Chen Mengli didn't dare to say anything and silently hid her splashed sleeves under the table. Because she had never been I've seen Dad get so angry.
Everyone put down the bowls and chopsticks, Zhang Zhilan was the first to bear the brunt of her, showing her gentleness and virtuousness, "Master, this matter is a foregone conclusion. No matter how angry you are, it will be useless. You will only get angry with your body."
"Don't be angry." She reached out to calm down the chest.
"So, you are. Even though you know that our Chen Mansion and the Chu Mansion have never been incompatible, who will not provoke you, but you just provoke the son of the Chu family?"
"If His Majesty hadn't given the marriage, the master would have disagreed with this marriage!"
Mrs. Zhu subconsciously picked up the handkerchief, lit the tip of her nose, and sneered at her under the handkerchief.
He cursed in his heart: Bah! It's so hypocritical. He not only shows off to us that your raised daughter is well married, but also accuses Chen Shengge of not seducing General Chu in person. You are really good people, but others do it!
It turns out that this banquet that deliberately triggered the big brother's anger was not sponsored by you?
I also want to be in a state of peace, but I don’t want the father and daughter to be in harmony. Your wishful thinking is really good.
After this meal, you have enough reason to withhold Chen Shengge's dowry. At that time, you will also blame the eldest brother, because the eldest brother will not let you prepare a sumptuous dowry.
"I've eaten almost all, so I'll say goodbye first." Su Wunian looked calm and her usual style was consistent with her usual arrogant and domineering personality.
Everyone could only look at her arrogant back, getting farther and farther away.
This family dinner, which mainly focuses on showing off, ended up in an unhappy way.
The next day, Zhang Zhilan personally delivered the osmanthus cake she made in person early in the morning.
He smiled kindly and a little apology, "Last night, the master shouldn't have been so angry at you in public, but he is old after all, and I was worried that he would get angry, so I deliberately said a few words to you."
"You won't hold a grudge against your mother for this, will you?"
Su Wunian never glanced at the osmanthus cake she sent, and said calmly: "Of course not."
Su Wunian has always ignored the irrelevant person, so how could she spend time on her?
"I knew that you always knew the general and would not care about your mother."
"Your father is just too proud of his face. He drank a few more glasses of wine, so he said those angry words last night. Don't take him seriously."
Chen Shengge still longed for fatherly love in his heart, but she seemed to have never received it. Because Su Wunian and Chen Shengge empathized with him, he inadvertently said: "What he said is just the words in his heart after drinking."
"In his eyes, I am so unbearable, and I want to get a man by any means."
"But he doesn't care about these things. All he cares about is his face. He is not in harmony with General Chu, and everyone knows that now, he has to become a relative of him and become a laughing stock in the officialdom."
"I was angry and had nowhere to go, so I had to spread my anger on my daughter who was not even loved by him."
Seeing that her purpose of this trip was achieved, Zhang Zhilan smiled a little proudly, "Silly child, you misunderstood your father."
"As parents, naturally, I hope that their children can live a happy life."
"Is that right?" Su Wunian's lips curled a bleak smile, "But the death of his fifth sister did not make him feel sad."
"Is it really his daughter's happiness that he cares about?"
"He's always the only one he cares about!"
"How can you miss your father so much? It's not easy for him to bear the entire Shen family."
Su Wunian said nothing more. After Zhang Zhilan left, Su Wunian sat quietly under the tree in the yard, wiping her favorite slap-bow bow.
A few days later, Chu Muchen personally brought a generous betrothal gift to the door.
