"I heard that the emperor left you to give a banquet in the palace again?" old king Jin looked lovingly at the grandson who brought pride and glory to the family: "why did you come back so soon?"

Jin Fengju put down the teacup and said with a smile: "Nothing's wrong. The Emperor just asked his brother-in-law and me to have dinner with him. During the dinner, he praised his brother-in-law and said that today is the Mid Autumn Festival and the family reunion day. Let's come back earlier. My brother-in-law also took me to his house. If I didn't say he should go back and prepare to enter the palace in the evening, I would take him. It's easy to persuade him. I wouldn't hurry Come back? Later, the moon will rise. "When he saw the cake on the table of old king Jin, he couldn't help laughing and said," this is osmanthus cake? It has a clear aroma. "Then he picked up a piece and sent it to his mouth.

"This was brought from your daughter-in-law's evening breeze Pavilion. I asked luocui to urge me once and came back with such a plate." old king Jin smiled and said, but listening to Jin Fengju also said with a smile: "sister luocui doesn't know her temperament. As long as she bought a plate, I agreed with her earlier that we should send some osmanthus flower cakes to our ancestors. You want more, and she won't refuse to give them."

Suddenly, Jiang WANYING came up and said with a smile: "What's good? I'm so happy to eat. It's like I just came back from the imperial meal? It's like I've been all the way back from the border. I eat everything delicious. Osmanthus cake is made in our yard and our sisters. I sent two plates to my wife and my ancestors this morning. They all agreed that you like it and go back to feed you a big plate."

Jin Fengju said with a smile, "what one person makes is one taste, and it's natural for us to make it in our yard. I'm only sorry that the two osmanthus trees in the ancestral backyard will pick the osmanthus flowers from the trees to make cakes one day. It must be excellent..."

Before the end of the sentence, old king Jin spat and heard her say with a smile: "it's just that after eating a little cake from you, I started to think about my two osmanthus trees. The osmanthus blossoms are just right. I don't allow them to pick them. What do you do? I don't like to watch them."

Jin Fengju said with a smile, "you're really good at calculating. You don't like to see the osmanthus trees picked in a mess, so let's pick the osmanthus in the yard and make cakes to honor you. My ancestors, you're more and more smart." in a word, everyone laughed, and Mrs. Jin pretended to be angry: "why? Don't you? Is it painful to honor me with a little cake?"

Just talking lively, I heard the servant girl outside say again, "the second master is coming." Before the words fell, many women in the room stood up and hid inside. However, Mrs. Jiang WANYING's direct relatives didn't hide. For a moment, Jinshi came in, but he was a hale and hearty old man with a handsome appearance. I think he must be a beautiful man when he was young. Fu Qiuning looked at it secretly. No wonder Jin Feng was so good. It turned out that he had a good foundation Because.

But when the golden stone came in, he saw Jin Feng holding a shortcut: "I said why don't you go to the front to help me? It turned out that you are lazy here again." as he said, he said to the old Taijun: "Prince Rongqin's house has sent gifts. It is said that this time it is the gift chosen by Prince Rongqin to accompany the princess in person. My son dare not neglect it. He personally led the housekeeper to come. This is the gift list. Please have a look at it. The housekeeper is still waiting for his life outside."

Old king Jin looked at Jin Feng Ju and said with a smile, "what have I seen? Feng Ju, read it to me." Then he leaned on the couch. Jin Fengju took the gift list and read it. As he read it, he couldn't help but be surprised. It turned out that the gift list was more than twice as valuable as the Dragon Boat Festival. No wonder Jinshi personally led the housekeeper over, not to mention Prince Rong himself. The Hou house naturally didn't dare to ignore the kindness in it.

Fu Qiuning listened in the corner, but his eyes looked at Jin Fengju. Associating with what Jin Ming had just said, he knew that Prince Rong relied more and more on his brother-in-law. No wonder the old prince and Jinshi looked at Jin Fengju just now. They also knew that Prince Rong chose these heavy gifts because of Jin Fengju. However, they listened to Jin Ming's advice Speaking, Prince Rong is the most proud time these days. Isn't he a little forgetful?

After reading the gift list, old prince Jin personally asked someone to serve tea to the housekeeper of the Rongqin palace, and asked about the princess and her children. Then he ordered someone to give a thick reward, and Fang Haosheng sent it out. Here he said to Jin Feng, "all right, go help your second uncle live, don't worry about us. After dinner in the evening, it's good to listen to the play and watch songs and dances."

Jin Fengju promised to go. Mrs. Jiang asked Jiang WANYING, "are the opera team and song and dance ready? Don't spoil the old lady's fun."

Jiang WANYING said with a smile, "I've already prepared for it. Madam, don't worry." After seeing the curtain of the door, several children came in. Jin Cangfeng and Jin cangjiao followed behind the other children. Her eyes flashed fiercely. When she saw Jin Zhenyi's elated appearance, she couldn't help laughing. Secretly, it seems that this elder brother Yier has indeed been taught by his mother. Why didn't those two cheap species get excited? Are they actually mud balls? No, it's clear No, that's what Fu taught. Did she know my plan? How could it be? Even the Lord doesn't know, where will she know? Well, it's nothing. There's not enough fire. I'll add some more slowly.

After dinner, everyone in the room sorted out their clothes and put on a brocade cloak. They followed old prince Jin to the autumn moon Pavilion in the backyard. The autumn moon pavilion was prepared for the mid autumn festival that day. Here you can see the moon rising slowly from behind the mountain. Below are flowers, trees and all kinds of chrysanthemums. The breeze blows and the faint fragrance floats. It is really the best place to enjoy the moon.

Fu Qiuning came to the backyard of Kangshou hospital for the first time and boarded the autumn moon Pavilion for the first time. Different from ordinary pavilions, this autumn moon Pavilion is a pavilion built in the middle of the mountain. It covers a large area. Half of it is a sealed room. People come in late at night to drink and have fun. Half of it is an open Pavilion. Sitting here, they can enjoy the moon and chrysanthemums. Opposite is the stage, Songs, dances and operas are performed there.

At this time, it was late, but the moon had not yet risen. Hundreds of lanterns hung around the pavilion and around the stage, reflecting the small backyard like day. The old prince and Jiang Fu said, "before the moon comes out, let's listen to some plays. I like the song of Lady Zhu very much and ask her to sing some songs too." Mrs. Jiang nodded one by one.

Fu Qiuning listened to the opera for the first time in this era. She was very curious about what opera she would sing at this time. As expected, most people listened to Kunqu Opera at this time. Maybe Beijing Opera hasn't come out yet. As for Yue Opera and Huangmei Opera, there may be some minor tunes in the south of the Yangtze River, but there should be no special opera to develop and grow.

"Cuiyanluo" was sung on the stage. This Kunqu opera was not available in Fu Qiuning's time. She was absorbed in listening. She heard Jin cangjiao curl her lips and say, "what, yiyiyiah, it's not good at all. It takes a long time to sing a word. How can my mother sing well?"

Fu Qiuning was startled. Jin Fengju was sitting between Mrs. Jiang and Lao Taijun at this time. According to her position, she was sitting next to Mrs. Jiang. Jiang WANYING was a flat wife and could only sit under her own head according to the rules. She was nervous. Unexpectedly, her daughter said such a deadly sentence. What if the terrible man hears it, and with his curiosity, he can't ask the end?

Fortunately, Jin Fengju didn't seem to hear this. He was focusing on the opera on the stage. It seems that he also likes listening to the opera. Fu Qiuning just breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Jiang WANYING chuckling around him and said leisurely, "why? Can my sister also sing? Listening to what sister Jiao just said, my sister can not only sing, but also sing very well."

The sound was not big or small, light or heavy enough for more than a dozen people around to hear it. For a time, many eyes met on Fu Qiuning's face. She was embarrassed and wanted to find a hole in the ground. At this time, Jin cangjiao seemed to know that she had caused trouble. She lowered her small head and dared not make a sound again.

"My sister is joking. How can I sing these songs? It's just that they didn't sleep when they were young and sang some indiscriminately to coax them to sleep. Now I don't even sing this, but they remember it." I secretly complain in my heart, but on the surface, it's still a school of light clouds and light winds. From the aspect of concentration, Fu Qiuning is very suitable for Jin Fengju.

"Why should my sister be humble and humble? Since she is good at it, she sings a song to help make fun of it. It happens that my ancestors also love to listen to the opera. In ancient times, there were colorful clothes to entertain relatives, which were known as twenty-four filial piety. Does my sister even refuse to do this? It can be seen that it is also false to show filial piety to my ancestors on weekdays?" Jiang WANYING pressed step by step and joked. It was not easy for her to catch such a humiliating Fu Qiuning, Can she easily let go of the opportunity for people to despise her?

"It's unfilial. It's because I'm not good at it and don't want to make a fool of myself, so as not to pollute the ears of my ancestors." Fu Qiuning's hands under the table have been clenched into fists, but she tries to keep calm and indifferent on her face. She knows that the more this time, the more she can't mess up.

"Why should my sister be so rigid? Even if she doesn't sing well, it's just a smile from her ancestors..." Jiang WANYING wants to force her again, but she listens to Jin Feng's light way: "just, Qiuning is the daughter of the prince of Zhenjiang. How can she learn drama? Wan Ying, don't force her."

It's okay that he doesn't export. As soon as he exports, Jiang WANYING hates it. Fu Qiuning also knows this truth, but now, only Jin Fengju can help him out. The old gentleman sat there motionless and didn't even look at himself. If he wasn't really a drama addict and attracted all his attention by the drama on the stage, it was that the old fox didn't know what idea he was secretly making. Fu Qiuning never underestimated the old lady. After these events, he labeled her as an old fox. (to be continued.
