Chapter 213: Clear Green Tea, White Lotus

That night.

The little devil tossed and turned in bed and couldn't sleep. Those who didn't know him would think that he had passed the boy's exam, so he was so happy that he couldn't sleep.

He slept alone tonight. While thinking about Xu Wan's good side to him, he covered his head with the quilt and quietly practiced the name with various emotions in the quilt.

"Mother, mother... mother? Mother! Mother, mother..."

Calm, coquettish, doubtful, angry, happy, discouraged... He tried them all, shouting and kicking his legs excitedly in the quilt.

The night was deep and the yard was silent.

Bu Yan, who was on night watch, listened to the voice of the little kid in the room. He couldn't help rolling his eyes, but at the same time, he wanted to raise his mouth.

He sighed and sighed: "Child."

This is the same thing every day.

The banquet the next day was a flower viewing banquet held by the Duke of Jin's Mansion.

Xu Lian'er personally sent a letter, saying that she, the eldest sister, should go to support the occasion. Xu Wan originally wanted to continue to pretend to be sick and not go, but Xu Shangshu also sent a letter, forcing Xu Wan to go.

Xu Wan didn't want to have much contact with this family, and didn't care about the progress of the house fight between Xu Lian'er and the wife of the Duke of Jin. But she didn't want to tear her face with the Xu family in public, and she wasn't at the point of fighting them to the death.

"Don't be nervous, I'm here." The little devil had experience helping her to fight people, so he dressed up early in the morning and followed her into the carriage.

Xu Wan said with a smile: "Little boy, you are getting more and more skilled in supporting me now."

The little devil raised his head proudly: "Of course, this young master is handsome, rich, powerful and knowledgeable, and he will be proud of whoever he goes out with. They are afraid of me, so they invited you to the banquet in advance. If the results of the imperial examination come out, my status as a boy will be even more powerful!"

"Haha... I have never seen a child as confident as you, as if you are sure that you will pass the exam." Xu Wan was amused by him and laughed, and the little irritability in her heart disappeared.

"Of course, the little boy will be easy to get!" The little devil raised his head higher.

Xu Wan couldn't help pinching his cheeks and praised: "So cute, my big son."

The little devil was even more excited by his mother's praise, and the smile on his face became brighter and brighter.

The Duke of Jin's Mansion did not invite many people today. Xu Lian'er had few good friends in the capital, and many of them did not come after being invited. This made Xu Lian'er, the daughter-in-law, in the Duke's Mansion even more difficult.

It is not easy to be a bride of a noble family.

"Sister, you are finally here. I have been waiting for you for a long time."

As soon as Xu Wan arrived, Xu Lian'er came up to her and wanted to take her arm, but the little devil took her arm first and forced Xu Lian'er's outstretched hand back.

Xu Lian'er's smile froze for a moment, and she quickly stabilized her mind and said, "Jin Cheng is here too, come in quickly, auntie specially prepared a lot of delicious cakes for you."

The little devil ignored her at all and took Xu Wan in directly.

What specially prepared for him, just a lie. If it was specially prepared, why did he say Jin Cheng was here before?

It's self-contradictory.

Xu Wan smiled and talked to Xu Lian'er as she entered the mansion, and asked politely, "How is your health recently?"

Xu Lian'er had a miscarriage a few years ago, and she had recovered in the past few months. It was a pity that she finally failed to defeat the wife of the Duke of Jin, and let the concubine's son born by that prostitute marry into the family. Now she has a concubine's eldest son who is not presentable.

Xu Lian'er said with a fake smile, "It's fine. The doctor in the mansion said that there is nothing wrong with my body. As long as I relax, I will soon get pregnant with a legitimate son."

Xu Wan smiled and said, "That's good."

The two of them greeted each other and sat down, and they seemed to have a very good relationship.

The other noble ladies, whether they were sincere or came to see the joke, saw that the sisters were on good terms, and their attitudes towards Xu Lian'er changed a little. This is the power of the family. As long as outsiders see that the sisters are united, others will think that Xu Lian'er is not so easy to bully.

Xu Shangshu asked Xu Wan to come, but it was just to support Xu Lian'er.

Xu Wan didn't care. If she couldn't refuse, she would just accept it calmly. Anyway, she didn't care. But at this time, she was quite glad that the Marquis' Mansion was not that powerful. If Xu Lian'er took advantage of the powerful and showed off, she would be depressed.

"Don't worry about them, we'll leave after dinner." The little devil suddenly interrupted.

Although he didn't quite understand the complicated things in this kind of banquet, he could feel that his mother was unhappy every time she saw the Xu family and the Duke of Jin's Mansion.

Xu Wan felt warm in her heart and blinked and responded: "Okay, let's leave after dinner and don't get involved in their affairs."

During the halftime, Xu Wan went out to relieve herself.

The little devil sat in his seat and ate cakes boredly. His mother was not here, and he was too lazy to even lift his eyelids. He just wanted to recite a few poems on the spot to clear the messy voices of the women.

"Jincheng, how is your relationship with your stepmother recently? I heard that she was still beating you on New Year's Day." Xu Lian'er sat over and asked.

The little devil rolled his eyes at her and replied, "That happened a long time ago. I was careless and almost blew my hand. My mother spanked me to teach me a lesson."

Xu Lian'er continued, "You can't spank me. You are a young master of noble birth, how can you be spanked like an ordinary child? If it were me, I would definitely not be able to do it."

Xu Lian'er pretended to be weak and pitiful, but it was a pity that this was all left over from Zong Jincheng's play. What was she pretending for, a white lotus.

Ugh...

The little devil wanted to punch her in the face, but he was sensible now and knew that he couldn't take the initiative to break up. He had to let the other party break down first.

He raised his eyebrows and said deliberately: "What do you know? To teach boys, you have to hit them. Hitting means kissing and scolding, which means love. She hits me because she loves me. Otherwise, why would she only hit me and not my brother? What? Oh, by the way, you probably have no experience in raising a son. I heard that you raised your only son in your aunt's room, so you will know when you have experience."

Being stabbed right in the center by the serial darts, Xu Lian'er was so angry that she immediately stood up, pointed at Zong Jincheng and cursed: "You bastard..."

The maid beside her reminded frantically: "Madam, madam, calm down, calm down. The ladies of all the families are watching. We must not quarrel with Yuanyang Hou Mansion. Don't forget the purpose of hosting the flower viewing banquet today!"

Xu Lian'er's chest heaved violently with anger. This bastard traitor of the Zong family kept talking about her most painful areas. She was so angry that she almost wanted to slap him twice on the spot.

How could Xu Wan tolerate this bastard?

Seeing that she was angry, the little devil pretended to be innocent again: "What's wrong? Did I say something wrong that made you angry? Don't argue with me. I'm still young, and I can't take what I say seriously. ”

Xu Lian'er was so angry that she was shaking all over again.

This bastard is still a kid. If she gets angry with him, it will look like she is being stingy and fussing over a child.

But she couldn't swallow this breath without fighting back.

Xu Lian'er took a deep breath for a long time, thinking that she was besieged on all sides in the Duke's Mansion of Jin and must not have another enemy.

Besides, she had spent a lot of money on managing people recently. If she could get into the Yuanyang Hou Mansion, which was extremely wealthy, how could she worry about spending money?
