Chapter 50 Dinner Together
Because of filial piety, Lily combed her usual bun and did not help the lady wear any headdress. Qiaoyu looked at herself in the mirror and nodded with satisfaction. My mother said that Yu'er is naturally beautiful, and a little powder is too gorgeous, so Qiaoyu has always been plain. Even so, every time you show your appearance, you will attract too much expectation. As time went by, Qiaoyu has become accustomed to the habit of going out to cover his face.
Qiaoyu stood up and walked out accompanied by Lily. There was already a maid waiting at the door. Seeing the door open, he greeted him with a smile and bowed.
"Miss, dinner is ready. Do you want to use it here or in the dining room?
"Let's go to the dining room."
"Yes! Miss, please come with me."
The little girl led the way in front, and Lily accompanied the young lady. From a corner door on the side, she walked into the yard in front of her and entered the living room of the main room. Chen Enze, Li and the two children have been waiting for a long time. Seeing Qiaoyu coming in, he stood up to salute.
Qiaoyu quickly took a few steps to stop it, "Brother, sister-in-law, don't salute. In this way, the jade will be broken!"
Enze said with a smile, "Miss, this courtesy is still necessary!" Li also echoed.
"Brother, what are you talking about? In those years, when Brother En led me to play with Sister Huize, why didn't he talk about etiquette? Now it has become strange! I have to salute, and I want the young lady to call me.
"So, I'm out of the way!" Qiaoyu, come and let's have dinner!"
"This is my brother!"
Everyone walked into the dining room talking and laughing, and the guests sat down. Chen Enze sat in the main seat, Li sat in Enze's left hand, Qiaoyu sat in his right hand, Qiaoer sat next to Qiaoyu, and Zhining sat next to Li. The maids and maids quietly served and cooked.
During the dinner, Enze told Qiaoyu what he had seen and heard from Beijing. Qiao Yu also said something about her mother and sister. Enze naturally knew the news of Hui Niang's death. Although Li didn't know that Qiaoyu's plain clothes alone, he knew that he was serving filial piety and didn't ask much. Everyone finished eating happily. Qiaoer pestered Qiaoyu to learn words, and Zhining also came over and begged with his sister. Qiaoyu looked at the children and liked them very much. He put down his body and kissed each other on the faces of the two children. He said with a smile, "The people in Zhenjiang Mansion are not prosperous in the first place. I seldom go out. I haven't seen children for many years. My sister-in-law's two children are so cute. I really don't like it."
Li came forward with a smile and said, "Why is this difficult? When you get married with Master Haoxuan, you can also have a pair of children.
Qiaoyu blushed shyly and said casually, "That's going to wait until three years of filial piety." Suddenly, when it came to filial piety, Li's smile froze on her face. Qiaoyu also realized that she had lost her words. The two of them sat awkwardly and didn't know what to say.
Chen Enze stared at Li and said with a smile, "Qiaoyu, it's your blessing this time that I can see Master Haoxuan again!"
Qiao Yu suddenly remembered that Hao Xuan was not at home and asked doubtfully, "Hao Xuan didn't come home with you?"
"When the young master arrived at the salt number in the afternoon, he was busy with the business of the salt number. I have dinner with several adults in the evening. He said that he was entrusted by his grandfather, Mr. Chang, to help Mr. Chang meet his good friends in Beijing for many years.
"Oh!" Qiao Yu answered casually.
Qiaoer suddenly smiled and said, "Auntie, it's getting late. You have been tired all the way. Would you like to take a rest earlier?
Qiaoyu held Qiaoer's pink smiling face and replied with a smile, "Okay! My aunt listened to Qiao'er. I'm going to take a rest!" After saying that, he said a few words with everyone, and then Li accompanied him back to the yard. Li sent Qiaoyu into the yard and left. Lily followed Qiaoyu into the house and turned around and closed the door. After serving Qiaoyu, he fell asleep and lay down in the ** of the west room. Qiaoyu was really tired and soon fell asleep.
