The main table was hosted by Nanshan Yun himself.

At this time, banquets in South Vietnam were mainly shared meals, and the seats at the banquet were arranged by the host according to the dignity of the guests. Aunt Gui sat on the upper seat facing east, and her immediate family members, including aunts and ladies at home, all sat at the same table.

After greeting each other, everyone started eating with their chopsticks. Not to mention, there are quite a lot of delicacies at the richest man’s house, and the splendidness is not inferior to the prefect’s banquet.

Nan Shanqing became angry when she saw her eldest sister covering her veil and chewing slowly, as if she was the only educated person in the whole house.

"Eldest sister, today is a good day for the fourth sister. I wonder if the eldest sister is wearing a veil to hide from others, but because she is unhappy?" Everyone sitting here thought of those rumors and saw how this slutty woman behaved today.

Nanshan glanced at her third sister lightly and said softly: "My sister is worrying too much. She just has a new injury on her face and is afraid of bumping into the guests." If there are new injuries, then there are old ones. You still want to ask How did the injury come about?

"It doesn't matter if you feel unhappy." You just feel unhappy.

"Mommy, you've worked hard today. Xiaoyou would like to thank you on behalf of your mother." Nanshan ignored the provocation of the third sister and turned around to raise his wine glass to Aunt Gui. Aunt Gui understood, took a sip from the wine glass, and accepted the eldest girl's thanks.

With the eldest girl here, seeing these children who are not well educated by my aunt, I feel less tired. But what the elder girl said about "hard work" is also true. She was all too familiar with the gunpowder-filled eyes in the flower hall.

The sun was shining just right today, making the front hall particularly spacious and bright. Everyone was getting tipsy while drinking and drinking. I don't know which servant said "Ah", but before everyone could recover from the tipsiness, I saw a group of crows coming straight towards the main table, very fast, just like the stars in the sky were burnt by gunpowder and had no face to stay in the night, they fell to the world without any hesitation, and they seemed to be hooked by someone. After getting rid of his soul, he swooped down towards the crowd.

The black birds opened their mouths and screamed strangely, and knocked all the plates and drinks on the table away. Everyone panicked and ran away.

"Mommy, be careful!" Nanshan grabbed grandma's hand and retreated out of the hospital. Although the front hall is large, it is indoors after all. A group of people were hiding in the corner and were pecked by crows. Nanshan and Grandma were standing in the courtyard, but they were fine.

By the time the guards arrived, the crows had already plundered a circle, found the direction they came from, and fled most of them. The crows flew across the laurel trees within the courtyard wall, and one of them seemed to have hit something and fell straight to the ground.

"Mammy, take a rest here." Nanshan called a few servants to protect Mammy Gui, then walked to the wall and looked up. The crow does not fall for nothing.

"Big girl?" Without waiting for Nanshan to observe, Zhuang showed his head from the wall. Nanshan nodded and asked with his mouth: "Who are you?"

A Zhuang did not answer, but made a "shhh" motion with his fingers, then picked off two osmanthus leaves, sandwiched the note in the middle, tied them together with branches, threw them down, held them up with both hands, and disappeared among the shadows of the trees. .

With the mission completed, A Zhuang hurried back to No. 10 Wormwood Lane. There are still many things at home waiting for his help.

Thinking of the large group of people in the courtyard of Nanshan Mansion, A Zhuang clicked his tongue and shook his head. The merchant's back house was really lively.

But the master was indeed right. The one who was dressed the plainest and most out of place was indeed the eldest lady of the Nanshan family.

-

At this time, several puppies came into the courtyard at some point, barking non-stop, and wild cats gathered outside the wall, meowing.

There was another chaos in the courtyard. Nanshan quickly picked up the leaves and put them in his sleeve pocket. He quickly returned to Aunt Gui, waved away the servant, and led her back to the wall.

"Oh, where did the dog come from?" Another exclamation came.

"Don't kill indiscriminately!" A servant was about to hit a little white dog on the head with a stick, but Nanshan stopped him. Aunt Gui's eyes once again overflowed with appreciation for Nanshan. She also saw it. She didn't expect that the eldest lady was faster than her. She was really a child full of compassion.

Nanshan Yun was about to rush out to stop the killing on the big day, but when he saw that Nanshan had stopped him before him, a rare glimmer of relief flashed in his eyes.

The animals were finally driven out, and everyone sat down at another table.

Nan Shanyun was pecked all over his head by crows. He bowed apologetically to Aunt Gui and ordered people to prepare bee dew fruit water to calm everyone's shock.

Aunt Gui took a sip and said, "Well, it's fresh honey. The snowy green in the fruit water is also a good tea from the south of the Yangtze River." As soon as these words came out, Nanshan Yun, Si Yiniang and others looked surprised. The anger between his eyebrows almost popped out, but because Aunt Gui was there, he suppressed it.

There were still servants cleaning up the yard, and there was a dog hole behind the bushes in the corner. Is that where the puppy got in? So several people were assigned to fill up the dog hole.

-

Soon it was time.

Seeing that it was getting late, Grandma Gui stood up and said goodbye. Nanshan Yun personally put Grandma into the carriage, then came back angrily, punished all the servants, and ordered a thorough investigation of what happened today.

Nanshan was very tired after listening to the admonishment for a long time. She was working hard today, working with cats, dogs and crows. If she hadn't used the medicine Xuan Qing also sent, she might not have been able to perform well today. When she returned to the room later, Need to use some more.

Originally, she wanted to endure it and let it go. After all, for women in this era, marriage is not a trivial matter. Unfortunately, her two sisters also liked to cause trouble for her for some reason.

And Nanshan Yun, who cared about the concubine's reputation but ignored her reputation, tricked her into meeting Li Xiyuan.

As an orphan, if Li Xiyuan goes crazy, has he not considered how her daughter will deal with herself?

The more I think about it, the angrier I get. It was also the medicine Xuan Qingyi gave her that was so good. The medicine seeped into the wound on her face, and her bloodline vitality recovered a lot. After being provoked by the father and daughter, she restrained herself for a long time and still couldn't stop it from summoning the animals. .

It can be regarded as self-inflicted.

According to South Vietnamese customs, during the matchmaking banquet and before the wedding, it is forbidden to have cats and dogs barking, breaking dishes, family feuds, and the matchmaker drinking tea.

Well, the tide is turning, and the more it turns, the more refreshing it becomes.

The most taboo things in Nanshan Mansion during happy events are the sight of blood and crows.

Yes, everyone has achieved perfection today.

The mess in the front hall and courtyard has been mostly cleaned up by the servants. Nanshan dragged his tired body and was about to walk to Huayuge, when he suddenly remembered that he had not read the note in his sleeve pocket.

She had to find a place to look.

There was no one she knew outside. The only possibility was Xuan Qingyi. She didn't know what he wanted to tell her.

He has probably returned to the capital, right?

I wonder if the injury is getting better?

He had to take good care of her. After all, he knew too much about her. There would probably never be another "person" like him in this world, right?
