Chapter 240 Repeated provocation for some reason

"Yuxian, sit on the throne and ask everyone to celebrate your birthday." The Zhaoping County Lord smiled.

Everyone should have gone to Shuyuyuan to celebrate Song Ruoxi's birthday, but Song Ruoxi was going to Danjuning to pay tribute to the Lord of Zhaoping County. The two gardens were a distance. If Song Ruoxi invited An and went back, it would not only be troublesome, but also make Song Ruoxi feel tired. The Lord of Zhaoping felt sorry for her daughter-in-law and did not want her to run back and forth in the sun.

"Mother, I'll be embarrassed to do this." Song Ruoxi's face turned slightly red and she smiled.

"Your brother and sister, what's wrong with this? Today you are the birthday star, you are the oldest." A middle-aged woman smiled and pushed Song Ruoxi to the throne, "Go up and sit up, we will pay your birthday to you."

Everyone also asked her to sit down and said that she had been to celebrate her birthday so that she could go to drink and listen to the opera.

Song Ruoxi was not willing to give in any more humility, so he sued him and sat down on the throne.

The people from each room came up to say auspicious words, gave gifts, and left.

It was Jiang Minghong's turn, and she brought her maid forward and saluted: "My brother and sister-in-law Yuxian, good health, good luck and good health, and today every year, and today every year."

"Thank you for your fifth brother and sister." Song Ruoxi smiled politely, took the brocade box, and handed it to Xiangxiu.

After paying a birthday, he should have stepped down, but Jiang Minghong stood still and looked directly at Song Ruoxi, "Don't sister-in-law Yuxian open the birthday gift and see?"

Song Ruoxi was slightly surprised. Not giving gifts in public is a respect for the gift-giving people, and it is also to prevent those who are not from being embarrassed by their poor family from being short of money. Although there is no such problem for the guests who come today, it is a common practice.

"I prepared the birthday gift. Not long after I entered the door, I didn't know my sister-in-law's preferences, and I was afraid that I would not prepare well. My sister-in-law would see if she liked it. If she didn't like it, I could change a gift for her sister-in-law." Jiang Minghong said with a smile.

The room suddenly became quiet and was extremely surprised by Jiang Minghong's move. Unless there was a problem with his mind, no one who received the gift would tell the gift giver in person that he didn't like the gift and asked the gift giver to change the gift.

Zhaoping County's face was slightly dark, and his eyes were staring at Jiang Minghong with sharp eyes.

"The gifts prepared by the fifth brother and sister must be unique." Song Ruoxi reached out and took the brocade box and opened it. There was a blue and white jade carving inside, and a little bird stood in the bird's nest.

Jade carving is a piece of mountain-shaped material. The jade is soft and has cracks. The carving is very rough, as if it is carved by rushing.

Not to mention that this gift is particularly outstanding, it is impossible to show it, and there is no need to show it in front of others. Some people sneered a few disdainfully, while others sneered their lips with contempt.

"Does sister-in-law like it?" Jiang Minghong asked.

"I like it." Song Ruoxi smiled, "This jade carving has pure texture, gentle jade color, delicate carvings. Thank you for your fifth brother and sister."

"Just sister-in-law likes it." Jiang Minghong curled the corners of her lips and smiled, then stepped back.

Although Song Ruoxi thought Jiang Minghong was a little weird, she was interrupted by Ye Shuting and others' birthday celebrations. She couldn't remember it while talking and laughing.

This incident soon reached Ye Xiaoliang's ears.

Ye Xiaoliang felt that the tea he drank into his mouth was so bitter that it was hard to swallow. His biological mother had already given him a headache. He finally got rid of her thoughts and settled down but did not want to marry a wife. He was also brainless. He went to cause trouble for no reason and angered his legitimate mother and his legitimate sister-in-law. What good would it do to her? I regret not obeying the biological mother's intention in this matter, thinking that marrying the biological mother liked would bring harmony between the mother-in-law and her daughter-in-law. Now it seems that this is a wrong move.

Jiang Minghong didn't know that Ye Xiaoliang had regrets marrying her, so she talked to Chen, who was sitting beside her.

Because of what happened just now, Chen thought that she was the leader of the trouble, and it was not good to get close to her, but it was difficult to avoid it now, so he responded to her in a mess.

Everyone in the room came to celebrate the birthday of the birthday star. It was getting late, so everyone moved to Qiushuang Hall.

Everyone sat down and the maid gave her refreshments.

Madam Zhou took the show and submitted it to the Lord of Zhaoping County.

The Zhaoping County Lord did not accept the show and said with a smile: "Let us birthday lady order a few good shows to listen to it."

"Mother, I don't know how to play. Can you help me?" Song Ruoxi said in a sweet voice.

Before the Zhaoping County Lord had spoken, Jiang Minghong said first: "Since my sister-in-law doesn't understand the show and can't order the show, I will order some good shows for my sister-in-law."

Everyone was shocked and looked at Jiang Minghong with incredible eyes. Is this person crazy?

The Zhaoping County Lord originally thought that today was Song Ruoxi's birthday, and there were so many guests present. He didn't want to get angry for a small matter, but now he couldn't help it. He put the teacup in his hand on the table and said coldly: "Is there any rules?"

"Mother, her fifth brother and sister-in-law are joking with me." Song Ruoxi hurriedly smoothed out the situation.

Jiang Minghong suddenly came to her senses. The one sitting on it was not her mother who had been spoiled by her since she was a child, but her mother-in-law. She stood up and smiled and said, "Mother, I am joking with my sister-in-law. I'm happy on a happy day."

The Zhaoping County Lord didn't believe this, but this is not the time to scold Jiang Minghong. Besides, he had to take care of Song Ruoxi's face and then went downstairs. "Brother and daughter-in-law, it's okay to joke around. What day is today? In front of so many people, you can't joke around. Okay, I'll give your sister-in-law a gift."

"Mother, sister-in-law is the birthday girl, and she is very blessed. I'm just kidding, she won't care." Jiang Minghong's eyes turned, "Sister-in-law, are I right?"

"There is nothing wrong with my brother and sister." Song Ruoxi smiled, ignored her and put the show in the hands of the Lord Zhaoping County, "Mother, please order a few plays for me."

"Okay, I'll help you." County Lord Zhaoping did not refuse anymore, ordered two lively plays, handed the show list to Madam Zhou, and asked her to order to six other wives who were peers with County Lord Zhaoping.

The six ladies politely gave in and ordered two plays together.

Madam Zhou took the show to order a few wives who were peers with Song Ruoxi. Some of them refused. When they ordered it, Jiang Minghong took three plays carelessly. A hint of displeasure flashed across Madam Zhou's face and said, "Mrs. Fifth Lady is really not simple. I know so many plays, so I should watch plays often."

"When I was a girl, I often watched operas." Jiang Minghong couldn't hear the mockery in Madam Zhou's words.

Madam Zhou curled her lips and went to invite the girls to order the show. After a round, there were 15 short plays in total.

The Zhaoping County Lord smiled and said, "Yuxian, please click it out, it's exactly sixteen out."

"Okay." Song Ruoxi responded with a smile and took the show list, "Just click "Qiqiao"."

After ordering the show, the maids came in one after another to deliver delicious wine and delicacies.

After drinking, the wine started, and everyone raised their chopsticks to taste it.

"Why are they all vegetarian dishes? Why are they not holding funerals?" Jiang Minghong blurted out.

The show was not out of the beginning, and she was quite loud. Two tables away from her, and the county lord Zhaoping, who was sitting in the chief, also heard it. His face turned blue with anger and almost smashed his wine glass at her.

"Fifth brother and sister, you probably haven't eaten a vegetarian banquet?" Song Ruoxi was furious and looked unchanged. He walked to Jiang Minghong with a smile. "Fifth brother and sister, look at the red plum shrimp, then look at the silver vegetable and eel shredded jade crab noodles, pine nut meat, chestnut chicken, and eight treasure duck. These are not ordinary vegetarian dishes. They are all made of high-quality vegetarian ingredients, and they can be fake and real in terms of color, fragrance, and taste. There is also this vegetarian snack that tastes the population and oily without greasiness. These are cooked by three of the top ten famous chefs at this year's Huanhua Banquet. The fifth brother and sister should taste their taste. Although the vegetarian banquet is only one word different, there is a world of difference."

After saying that, Song Ruoxi walked away. She was the birthday boy and the master. She wanted to greet guests and talk and joke to adjust the atmosphere. She was very busy and didn't have time to pay attention to Jiang Minghong, a woman with a problem with her brain.

This matter was also quickly learned about Ye Xiaoliang.

The blue veins on Ye Xiaoliang's forehead were protruding, and his anger rolled in his chest. He almost wanted to rush to the flower hall and drag Jiang Minghong out to beat him.

"Fifth brother, a good wife and husband are not in trouble. This makes sense." Ye Xiaojing walked to him and said this, then walked away again.

Ye Xiaoliang gritted his teeth and endured it for a long time before he could endure the anger.

Jiang Minghong didn't know yet that what she did had made Ye Xiaoliang extremely angry, and she was still waiting for an opportunity to trouble Song Ruoxi.

Song Ruoxi toasted the table at the tour table. When he walked to Jiang Minghong, he was singing a break from Jiang Minghong's "White Rabbit Record" on the stage. The female actor sang: "It is better to be a noble person than a noble person. I am far away and I am close to you that day. What should I tell you? I call you to the sky, how sad Dou Sheng! I never get tired of the new clothes, and people never get tired of the old. I can't bear to be sad, and I can't get rid of the grievances. Who is the only one who lives here?"

"Sister-in-law Yuxian, do you think she sang very well?" Jiang Minghong asked.

Song Ruoxi didn't know what shocking words she was going to say, and said with a slightly cold expression: "I don't understand opera, I don't know if she sang well. My fifth brother and sister have studied opera and think it's good, that's fine."

Jiang Minghong curled her lips and smiled, "What I like most about this drama is this fold. The lyrics are good and thought-provoking. You should know that clothes are not as good as new as new, and people are not as good as old as before."

When Song Ruoxi saw her showing a strange smile again, his eyes flashed and said, "It's really not easy for the fifth brother and sister to listen to the opera."

"There are many principles in the play. There is also a lyrics in the play. Sister-in-law also needs to listen carefully, which makes sense." Jiang Minghong still couldn't hear the mockery in Song Ruoxi's words.

"Thank you, my brother and sister, for reminding me, I will listen carefully." Song Ruoxi smiled, toasted everyone, turned around and went to another table, and returned to the seat after toasting.

On the stage, "The White Rabbit" has been sung, and the drama has been changed. The "Spring and Autumn Pavilion" in "Locking the Case" was a fold. The female character was wearing a wedding dress and stood in the curtain representing the sedan chair and sang: "The wind and rain outside the spring and autumn pavilion are storms, where is the sad sound broken? A sedan chair is seen through the curtain. It must be the newlyweds on the magpie bridge. Auspicious days and good times should be laughing. Why are the mermaids turned into tears?... Is it because the husband is ugly and beautiful, and Is it because the crows occupy the magpie's nest for forced marriage..."

When Song Ruoxi heard the sentence "Forced marriage and crows occupy the magpie's nest", he suddenly remembered the birthday gift given by Jiang Minghong.

Crows occupy the magpie's nest!

Song Ruoxi was puzzled. Which magpies' nest was her crow occupied? With Ye Shuhua's personality, if she had a alliance with her woman, she would definitely abide by the agreement and would never abandon the woman and marry her as her wife. She was sure that she did not occupy the magpies' nest. Why did Jiang Minghong's misunderstanding come from?
