Chapter 178
Gu Qingyou didn't notice the strange gazes behind him at all, he just held onto Tuanzi's hand tightly, trying to make the pony run slower.

Princess Qin, as the host, had already taken her seat early. When she saw Tuanzi running into the hall, she smiled and waved to him, "Yangyang, come here, grandma."

Only then did Gu Qingyou see someone above her, and hurriedly stopped to salute, Princess Qin still remembered her, and said with a smile: "When you come to the palace, it's like your own home, go and sit down."

"Thank you, princess."

She raised her head and looked around, when a maid came over and led her to sit beside Xue Lan.

Surprised, he raised his head and met his mother's questioning gaze.

In this kind of occasion, the seats are assigned according to their status. Concubine Qin's right hand side is her own sister, and there is no one at the second table, probably because the distinguished guests have not arrived yet.

The first place on the left is said to be Princess Changle, but she is still busy, so it is temporarily vacant.

According to the rank, Xue Lan should be below Changle, but she didn't know what she was thinking, but Gu Qingyou was sandwiched between herself and Xue Lan.

If they were really split mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, such an arrangement would be embarrassing, but who would let themselves be mother-in-law?
Xue Lan didn't care about these things, Gu Qing was so happy to be next to his mother, so he hurriedly walked over to take a seat with small steps.

"Mom, I miss you so much~"

She was sitting on Xue Lan's right, far away from the person on the left, and she wasn't worried about being heard, because she could act like a baby without worry.

However, Xue Lan had to pay attention to the volume, and held her daughter's little hand with the help of the wide sleeve robe, and squeezed it. He accidentally touched a hard part of the index finger, and couldn't help frowning. Are people careless in serving you?"

"Why?" Gu Qingyou held her mother's hand instead, feeling that the back of her hand seemed to be thinner than when she first came here. Knowing that she had been uncomfortable recently, she deliberately picked up happy things and said: "Girls Very good, this was ground out when I was teaching crochet a few days ago, just to let the workers master the craft earlier and stock up more quickly."

Xue Lan heard that everything was going well for her, and she was really in a good mood to learn a lot. These days, because of the matter between Xue Lin'er and Cuitao, she had a cold war with Song Chengye for several days.

Just because she told Cuitao the truth about Xue Lin'er's death, that idiot not only didn't believe it, but suspected that she deliberately made up the crimes in order to punish Cuitao, which made Xue Lan very angry.

"Through the relationship of the princess, I also prepared a crocheted shawl for the princess as a congratulatory gift. The princess promised me that she would let the princess try it on on the spot. Are you afraid that there will be no business then?"

Gu Qingyou glanced lightly, and the guests had arrived one after another, a red shadow flashed by the door, Chang Le stepped in, holding a brocade box in his hand.

You don't need to look at it to know that it contains the wool felt doll she made for the princess herself.

When Tuanzi saw her coming in, he immediately ran to greet her: "Aunt Lele, come quickly, everyone is waiting for you!"

"Who said, isn't it still empty there?"

Chang Le paused in the empty seat, remembering that this is the seat of Mrs. Jing'anhou, anger rose in her heart.

In any case, her marriage with Ye Lan was already settled. As the mother-in-law, Mrs. Jing'an Hou came late to the birthday banquet of her mother-in-law, and it was obvious that she deliberately lost face to the Qin Palace.

She couldn't hide it in her heart, and her displeasure overflowed her words. The people who were chatting fell silent, no one dared to answer, and the hall became instantly silent.

Tuanzi didn't know what happened, but seeing that everyone stopped talking suddenly, even Princess Qin put away her smile, and said to Changle lightly: "Maybe there is something stuck, I can't let the ladies wait and start the banquet directly Bar!"

Now everyone didn't dare to gasp, secretly thinking that Mrs. Jing'an Hou was not smart enough, since she was unable to break the engagement, why not just accept it and hug the strong and thick legs of Prince Qin's mansion tightly?
Besides, she doesn't like Chang Le. In fact, how good is her own son? To put it bluntly, his reputation is comparable to that of Song Shizi in the Duke's Mansion. Which serious lady is willing to enter the door.

These few are big and important households in Shanghai, and if there is a little trouble, they will be talked about for a long time.

Today Jinganhou is so disrespectful to Qin Wangfei, with Changle princess's violent temper, he will definitely hold grudges, everyone can't help but start to look forward to, after she gets married, she and Mrs. Jinganhou may become another pair of incompatible mother-in-law and daughter-in-law .

Look at the pair in Ningguo Mansion...

Some sharp-eyed people noticed that the ex-mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were sitting next to each other, and that the abandoned wife, Mrs. Gu, was actually sitting on top of Mrs. Ning Guogong? ?
This position almost confirms everyone's guess just now - this Gu's ambition is not small, and in time, won't he want to shake up the middle position?
After Changle was seated firmly, the banquet officially began.

Concubine Qin couldn't bear the chattering vulgar etiquette, she simply thanked everyone, and after accepting everyone's congratulatory gifts with a smile, she directly raised her wine glass to toast.

Chang Le saw the timing and signaled to the waiter behind him, and soon, a big red crochet shawl was brought in on a tray of huanghuali.

In order for everyone to see clearly, Chang Le specially ordered people to spread out the shawls, walked in from the entrance of the main hall, and indeed attracted the eyes of the two rows in one fell swoop.

"Concubine Mu, this is a birthday gift prepared by my friend Gu Qingyou, please accept it."

The people below are a little dissatisfied. It is different if there is a back door. The princess has to speak in person to give gifts, and the form compares them.

Could it be that the princess of Changle is short-hearted, you treat other people as friends, but others want to be your little mother!
Qin Wangfei likes red. As early as the waiter came in, she fixed her eyes on the shawl that looked like gauze but not gauze. When it was delivered to her eyes, she realized that the hollow was made of weaving. Never seen before!"

"Returning to mother and concubine, this is made by Yoyo herself, I dare not say anything else, this is the only one in the territory of Jin~~"

"Oh?"

Concubine Qin looked at Gu Qingyou in surprise: "I didn't know that Miss Gu still has such a skill, it's really ingenious and beautiful."

Holding the shawl, she couldn't put it down, and finally couldn't bear the itch in her heart, she got up and said: "It happens to be a little hot, I will try to change it on."

She has always been informal, she just got up and took off the heavy dress coat. Chang Le took Gu Qingyou over and put the shawl on her personally. Some people in the audience were amazed, especially some younger officials, their eyes became dizzy It's hot outside.

"Oh my God! This is so beautiful! Is it really Gu's doing it?"

"I didn't know that Mrs. Gu still has such skills. If I knew it earlier, I should have made friends with her."

Of course, some bitter words are unavoidable here, for example, the horse-faced official who followed Mrs. Jing'an Hou sneered and said: "Heh, if he cared so much about her mother-in-law, why would he be kicked out of the Duke's mansion?" ?”
