"Please sit down, please."

Cuixi brought Jia Qing to a table next to her, where there was an empty seat. She gave a gesture of invitation and asked Jia Qing to sit here.

A little girl next to her, looking about teenage. Seeing Jia Qing walking towards this side, she quickly leaned to the other side, but didn't dare to turn her head back.

Jia Qing thanked Cuixi, sat down quietly, pretending not to see the behavior of the little daughter beside her, and greeted the wife on the table slightly, and said to Tanchun, who happened to be sitting at this table:

"The third sister is here too, why don't you see Brother Bao and Meimei Lin?"

Tanchun smiled naturally and nodded to the left. Jia Qing looked in the direction and saw that the two wives of King Xing were sitting on the table over there.

Next to Mrs. Xing were Jia Yingchun, Jia Xichun, next to Mrs. Wang was Lin Daiyu, and then Jia Baoyu... But she didn't see Li Wan. As for Wang Xifeng, she was not a guest. Jia saw her commanding the maids and mothers to play banquets early in the morning.

Xiao Xichun may have been paying attention to Jia Qing, but it was hard to come here in person. When Jia Qing looked over, he immediately returned with a bright smile.

Jia Qing also smiled at Xichun and withdrew his gaze. When he looked at Tanchun sitting here alone, he thought to himself that Tanchun was indeed different, and his independence ranks first among the sisters of the Jia family.

After a few words with Tanchun, Wang Ziteng's wife reminded the Queen Mother to have a banquet...

Everyone stood up and greeted the Queen Mother with a cup, and then the banquet officially started.

Except for Jia Baoyu, Jia Qing and a few children, there was no man in the whole scene. The room was full of flowers and green willows, and the makeup and hairpins were ringed.

Unlike men, when they get together, they either drink or tell dirty jokes... Women gather at the same table, and all the conversation time is about family matters, and most of the topics are always about the child's childbirth.

Next to Jia Qing, the little granddaughter Miaoyin in the Queen Mother's mouth was facing the other side from beginning to end. Next to her, her sister-in-law should be her sister-in-law, and she was almost snuggling into her sister-in-law's arms.

What a shy little girl! Jia Qing said in his heart, but he didn't take the time to tease her. He let the two of them have a big gap, staring at the delicious food on the table, and ate it with the good wine in the glass. Occasionally, he dealt with the war burning by the women who were communicating fiercely on the table.

"Second brother, let's have a drink!"

But it was Jia Baoyu who went to toast the old ladies there and folded his wine.

Jia Qing quickly stood up and said, "It's time for me to toast Brother Bao..."

Jia Baoyu waved his head indifferently, touched Jia Qing for a while, and raised his glass to drink. It was obvious that the little fat man had already drunk a lot and his face turned red.

"I heard you were injured a few days ago. I wanted to see you. But my wife didn't allow me. I was going to study at school, so I was delayed."

"It's nothing."

After drinking, Jia Baoyu did not leave, but pulled Jia Qing to speak.

"How about it? Is it so much to drink with those vulgar people here?" Jia Baoyu suddenly approached Jia Qing and laughed in a low voice.

Jia Qing was stunned and always felt that this was a bit "silly". He almost thought that this guy was not Jia Baoyu, but Jia Lian. Looking at the intoxicated expression on Jia Baoyu's face, Jia Qing had to sigh that he was still a man after all. So he replied in a low voice: "Extremely yes, Extremely yes."

"Hey, Sister Miaoyin is here too, brother, I'll give you a drink!"

After talking to Jia Qing, he looked at Tanchun again. Jia Baoyu was about to leave, but accidentally found his cousin, and he could not move. He immediately filled his wine glass, turned to Miaoyin's side, and invited him warmly.

Haha, it’s okay to drink with me, they are all boys. But now you are disrespectful to the elders on the table, but you respect your cousin alone. What do you let others think of you? Others won’t think you are fresh and refined... One of them is your cousin’s wife! Jia Qingxin said.

Sure enough, a few people on the table looked weird when the scene was happening. Maybe most of them recognized or heard of Jia Baoyu, but they didn't speak up for him for a while.

However, his cousin was not ashamed of face. He shook his head gently. Seeing Jia Baoyu running to the other side to invite her to drink, she reluctantly turned her head over...

This time, it was the first time that Jia Qing looked at Miaoyin's cousin in front of him.

What a fresh and beautiful little loli...

Miaoyin turned her head and saw a handsome face with a smile, and was stunned. Then she saw that the other person was looking at her, her face turned red, and then she couldn't resist the shyness, so she turned around and buried her head in her sister-in-law's arms.

Seeing Jia Baoyu standing there with a glass of wine awkwardly, the woman holding Miaoyin in her arms said, "Baoyu, your sister Miaoyin doesn't know how to drink, I'll help her drink this glass..." As she said that, she picked up her cup, signaled to Jia Baoyu, and drank it all in one go.

But he ignored him, stroked Miaoyin with one hand and picked up food with the other...

Seeing that Jia Baoyu was still standing there awkwardly, Jia Tanchun stood up and helped him and said, "Second brother, please go back quickly. It's important to take good care of his wife."

Only then did Jia Baoyu regain his naturalness, and said something to Tanchun, looked at Jia Qing again, and returned to his seat staggeringly.

Seeing this, Jia Qing smiled. Jia Baoyu, who is as beautiful as a treasure, is not popular everywhere. Yet, Jia Baoyu only cares about the people he likes, and most of the people he likes are unmarried girls... In this way, how can people who are not favored by him like him?

Only the Rongguo Mansion can protect him like a moon.

......

There was constant drums and music in the house, and the sound of raising the cups kept coming.

Although Jia Qing did not like the etiquette at the table, he stood up and toasted the elders he knew one by one.

After a full hour, the old ladies on the main table stopped talking. Then the head of the palace, who was in charge of the banquet, called everyone to the corner tower behind to watch the show.

Ancient dramas were not attractive to Jia Qing at all. Yet, how can people who have experienced colorful TVs be interested in dramas that are very low in expression and infectious?

He pretended to be unable to drink, but did not get up with everyone.

"Second brother..."

Jia Qing looked up and saw that Yingchun had arrived at Xichun's hand. Tanchun was still sitting.

"Don't you go to the show?"

Jia Qing looked at the still-moving crowd and said to Tanchun and others.

"Didn't the second brother leave?"

"I want to go with my brother."

Tanchun and Xichun say at the same time.

Now Xichun is seven or eight years old, and she is getting more and more beautiful and lovely. She waved to her, and Xichun immediately let go of Yingchun's hand and ran to Jia Qing, allowing Jia Qing to pick her up. Then she heard Jia Qing say:

"I don't like watching operas very much. I've had some wine and wanted to go out for a walk and have some breathing."

Yingchun is responsible for watching Xichun. Just now, Xichun was about to come here, so she followed her.

She didn't know much about the play, and said, "It's good..."

"Oh, what are you going to do? The ancestor remembered her grandchildren and granddaughters halfway through. There were only a few missing ones, so I'm going to find them."

The sisters were discussing where to go, and they saw Wang Xifeng, dressed in pink, who seemed to be a fairy concubine, wearing it from the hall behind. When they saw everyone, their eyes lit up and they said loudly.

"Second sister-in-law." Several people asked.

Wang Xifeng asked, "Don't you go to watch the show?"

"It's too hot. I've drunk wine and don't want to skew the crowded fields. I'm discussing with my second and third sisters to the cooler fields to dissipate."

Jia Qing smiled.

Wang Xifeng was very understanding and said, "That's right, it's getting hot this day. I also want to find a place to cool off, but unfortunately... you are leisurely! Let's do this, there is a garden in our mansion with a stream inside. At this time, it's definitely two more pieces than other places.

When I wasn't there at your house, I liked to go inside every summer. Why don't you just go there and have fun?"

The eyes of several people lit up. Jia Qing said, "I didn't expect that my sister has such a good place to go at home, that's great."

Wang Xifeng looked at Jia Qing and said, "Why, can it be that your Jia family has good things? We, a small family, cannot enjoy the good things?"

"What does this mean... I mean no wonder a girl-school-in-law can be found. It turns out that there is such a good place! Second sister-in-law will take us there quickly, so it's also a good experience."

Wang Xifeng replied with a look that you could talk, saying, "I don't have time today. In this way, I will ask two girls to lead you over. Just one thing, be careful and don't bump into each other, otherwise, I can't afford to blame the ancestors when they blame you."

"Where will we be optimistic about Xiao Xichun and will never let her run around..."

Xichun, who was placed on the ground by Jia Qing, pouted when she heard this...

Wang Xifeng nodded, called the two maids next to her, and asked them to follow Jia Qing and others. After explaining a few more words, he turned around and went back.

Looking at Wang Xifeng's swaying and romantic attitude when she walked, Jia Qing said intimately: Although Wang Xifeng is a little more cruel to outsiders, she is still very caring for her family.
