Chapter 497 Ouyang Wanruo
509
It was Yao's first banquet after returning to Shengjing, and the post was posted a few days ago.

This time Yao Shi invited everyone who should be invited and who should not be invited at once, just to let Su Kefang show his face in this circle, so Yao Shi paid great attention to this banquet.

Seeing that her mother-in-law cares about this banquet, Su Kefang carefully arranged the venue and food.

A few days before the banquet, Yao's customized fox fur and light feather shawls were delivered to Su Kefang and Xiang Bingyu.

Xiang Bingyu's fit fairly well, but Su Kefang lost a lot of weight on the way to Shengjing, and the fox fur and shawl seemed a bit loose. Yao thought that there was still time for his master to change it, but Su Kefang didn't. He smiled and said that he can do it by himself.

On the day of the banquet, Yao Shi, Su Kefang and others got up early to prepare. Su Kefang and Xiang Bingyu re-checked the venue and the food and beverages. Fan.

The few families who were close to Yao's before were all implicated in those years. Either their homes were raided, or they were demoted and left Shengjing. Almost all of them are malicious.

Some of them wanted to see the jokes of the Xiang family, and some came to inquire about the situation of the Xiang family. The Yao family knew all of these.

To Yao's surprise, the first person to arrive at the Duke's mansion on the day of the banquet was Ouyang Wanruo, the younger sister of the current emperor's compatriot.

This Princess Chang'an is 14 years old this year. She looks beautiful and lovely. She grew up under the doting of the Empress Dowager and the First Emperor.

It is naturally impossible for the Yao family to hold a banquet to post messages to the Taihuang and the Empress. How could this Princess Chang'an come?

Yao shi suppressed the astonishment in his heart, and led Su Kefang and others to welcome him out with just the right amount of joy on his face.

"I don't know that Princess Chang'an is here, but I hope that Princess will forgive me." Yao said respectfully.

"This princess came here uninvited today, don't blame Mrs. Xiang." Princess Chang'an said calmly.

Her indifferent expression made one feel that she came to the Duke's Mansion unwillingly.

Yao shi had never met this Princess Chang'an before, so he couldn't figure out her temperament at the moment, so he had to welcome her into the mansion cautiously.

"What is this?" Ouyang Wanruo couldn't help asking when she saw a cup of red date tea and a cup of white thick things brought up by the maid as soon as she sat down.

"Princess, this is jujube tea and milky corn juice. The daughter-in-law of the minister taught the cook to make it. It tastes good. Princess, please try it." Yao said with a smile.

Because he didn't know Ouyang Wanruo's taste, and was afraid that she would not like the taste of milky corn juice, Su Kefang asked the maid to give him another cup of red date tea.

Jujube tea has the function of invigorating the stomach and nourishing, and most people can drink it.

Just now Yao shi introduced Ouyang Wanruo. Hearing this, he glanced at Su Kefang who was sitting down, took a sip of the warm milky corn juice, and then relaxed his slightly frowning eyebrows.

"Well, it tastes good!" Ouyang Wanruo praised generously.

"Princess, drink more if you like to warm up your body." Yao said with a smile.

Ouyang Wanruo responded lightly, and took another sip.

Seeing that Ouyang Wanruo's expression was calm, Yao Shi and Su Kefang didn't want to talk to them anymore, so they also kept quiet and didn't disturb her.

After a while, a maid came in and reported that Princess Qin Wang and several female relatives in the mansion had come.

Yao shi pursed her lips and smiled, without moving, but whispered to the big maid beside her to go out to pick up her.

Ouyang Wanruo glanced at Yao shi indistinctly, but didn't say anything.

When the Xiang family was framed, Ouyang Zhi played a big role, and it is human nature for the Yao family not to give Princess Qin face.

Soon, Yao and the others heard the sound of footsteps. It wasn't until Princess Qin Zhu walked to the entrance of the hall that Yao smiled and led Su Kefang to stand up to meet him.

"Meet Princess Qin." Yao shi took Su Kefang to salute Princess Qin.

"Mrs. Xiang, please get up." Princess Qin stepped forward to give her a hand, and said with a smile, "I haven't seen you for so many years, Mrs. Xiang is still so polite."

The Xiang family has undergone great changes, and the Yao family is still as defiant as before, unexpectedly sending a little maid out to welcome her, the concubine!
Yao pretended not to hear the accusation in Qin Wangfei's words, and replied with a smile: "I haven't seen you for many years, Wangfei still looks as kind as before."

It looks kind, but it is actually kind-hearted.

Hearing her mother-in-law's words, Su Kefang's eyes flickered slightly, and he looked at Princess Qin Zhu with a slight smile on his lips.

This Concubine Qin is in her thirties, her figure is slightly fat, her eyebrows and eyes are not exquisite, and she is dressed in a red palace dress, which gives people a feeling of richness.

"Fang'er, Yu'er, come here to see Princess Qin." Yao looked at his daughter and daughter-in-law beside him, and said with a smile.

Mrs. Zhu found out that Mrs. Yao had borrowed a nanny from the palace to teach etiquette, so she was not surprised when she saw Su Kefang's unerring behavior, but just looked at her deeply.

Seeing the woman in front of her with smooth and smooth skin like warm jade, her small cherry mouth is not tinged with vermilion, delicate and charming, and seeing herself calmly, without the slightest panic or helplessness, Zhu was still a little surprised in her heart.

It is said that the Su family is a village girl who took the initiative to rely on Xiang Chenhong at the beginning. She did not expect a country girl to be so dignified, which was a bit beyond her expectation.

Zhu Shi secretly smiled, rubble is just rubble, no matter how well decorated it is, it cannot be turned into pearls and jade.

When Mrs. Zhu saw the shawl on Su Kefang's body, her expression paused slightly. Although it was only a moment, Su Kefang caught it.

Su Kefang lowered his eyes slightly, hiding the expression in his eyes.

While talking, a maid reported that Taipu Siqing and Xiaoqi Canling and other wives had come.

Hearing that it was Xiaoqi's wife, Yao was overjoyed, and immediately asked Su Kefang and Xiang Bingyu to go out to greet her.

Wei Peng, the leader of Xiaoqi, used to be a guard for Xiang Zirun's grandfather Xiang Liang. Later, because Ouyang Rui was injured in the army, he was sent to take care of Ouyang Rui. After getting Ouyang Rui's common sense, he returned to Shengjing.

Yao knew that Wei Peng had knelt in front of the emperor's study for three days and three nights, begging Ouyang Rui, who was only the prince at that time, to collect the corpses of the Xiang family.

Yao family was grateful for Wei Peng's kindness, and wished to go out to meet Wei Peng's wife Zhai Shi in person, but since Princess Chang'an was here, she couldn't leave, so she had to ask her daughter-in-law to go out for her.

Mrs. Zhu took a meaningful look at Mrs. Yao, and was led into the house by the maid.

Seeing Ouyang Wanruo who was sitting on top, Mrs. Zhu said with a smile, "It turns out that Princess Chang'an is here."

"Princess Qin." Although Ouyang Wanruo didn't like this Concubine Qin, she was the first to speak, and she also greeted her lightly, but her expression was colder than before.
