The Duke's Daughter is Reborn

Chapter 341 Banquet (3)

As soon as Yang Lan entered the house, she saw the scene of the deep sisterly love between Yang Qi and Yang He. She felt a little strange in her heart. The third sister had always disliked the fifth sister, but this time when she returned home, her eyes revealed her sincere love for her.

In terms of emotional control, the third sister has made "rapid progress" in the past six months.

"Grandma, the meal is ready." Yang Lan walked into the house with a sweet smile and stood beside the old lady.

This time, the old lady personally spoke up and asked Yang Lan to assist in preparing the banquet.

Although there is not much to do at the banquet today, the old lady's real intention is to let Yang Lan be in charge of the next banquet. This time it is just a practice.

There is still more than a month away from Miss Lan's coming-of-age ceremony. Before that, the old lady has to promote her most favored granddaughter, Song Yanglan, in the capital.

The old lady nodded to Lan Yatou and said softly, "Is the Duke here?"

During this period, Yang Lan became more and more attractive. Originally, she was only considered delicate and beautiful, but now she was slowly losing her immaturity and gradually showing her stunning beauty.

For some reason, after not seeing Yang Lan for more than half a year, Yang Qi felt that his third sister was becoming more and more like Bai Yuxin.

Whether it is the posture of sitting, standing or walking, or the curvature of the corners of the mouth when smiling, they can all correspond one by one.

Could it be that these two people are similar because they both learned from Mr. Yang? However, I also respect Mr. Yang as my teacher, but I don’t look like Bai Yuxin at all.

It was really strange, could it be because the prototypes of all the successive queens were similar? After all, in the previous life, Bai Yuxin and Song Yanglan took turns to be the crown princess and held the title of crown princess.

Song Hongwen is the protagonist of today's banquet. If the protagonist does not appear, the banquet cannot be held.

Before Yang Lan could explain the old lady's question, An said anxiously, "The Duke has already sent someone to reply. I think they are on the way now."

There was a lot of arrogance in An's words, which made Aunt Yin feel a little gloomy deep in her heart.

This An family has been too rampant recently, showing off her love for the Duke everywhere.

Little did he know that what the An family did some time ago could not be so easily forgotten by the Duke. He did not mention it now, only because the An family was still useful to His Highness.

Nodding to An, the old lady turned around and said to everyone in the room, "Then everyone wait, the feast will begin when the Duke arrives."

As soon as the old woman finished speaking, Song Hongwen's hearty laughter could be heard from outside the house: "Mom, you really make me suffer. Other things are fine, but how can a son let you wait?"

After hearing Song Hongwen's words, everyone present, except Xu, showed joy on their faces.

Song Hongwen's words were so thoughtful that the old lady's joy was beyond words.

Yang Qi straightened his back, watched the visitor enter the room and bow to the old lady, then said respectfully, "Daddy."

Although Yang Qi has changed to calling him "father" in private, but in person, he still has to call him "daddy".

Seeing Yang Qi's respectful look, Song Hongwen nodded in his heart: "Is everything going well at the manor?"

Ever since Song Hongwen entered the room, Yang Qi’s originally uneasy face finally showed a smile: “Thank you for your concern, Daddy, Xiao Qi is doing fine.

By the way, Xiaoqi has not yet thanked Daddy and congratulated him on his promotion and the realization of his wishes. "

Listening to Yang Qi's words, Song Hongwen couldn't help but relax. Yang Qi knew that this was a sign that he was in a good mood.

"I know you have become much more obedient and sensible. Now that you have just recovered from a serious illness, you should wear more clothes and don't indulge in the cold."

Yang Qi nodded: "Daddy reminded me, Xiao Qi will pay more attention to it."

Song Hongwen sent Yang Qi to Xiaoyu Zhuang on the grounds of poor health. Now that he said this, outsiders would think that they really are a loving father and daughter.

The old lady stood up first: "Okay, the table is ready. If you don't go over now, the food will get cold."

Song Hongwen smiled and supported the old lady: "I wanted to go home early to congratulate you today, but some urgent matters suddenly came up this morning and I had to go deal with them first."

Patting Song Hongwen, the old lady smiled and said, "I know you have a lot to do. It's okay for us to wait."

It's better to be busy. The old lady has had enough of those days when no one cares about her.

The old lady was happy that the Duke of Song's Mansion had been able to turn things around this time. Today's banquet was prepared exceptionally well, with abalone, bear paws, and so on, which made the onlookers dazzled.

Yang Qi looked at the lion head on the table and suddenly thought of the oversized lion head that his stepmother had prepared for him when he was in Xihu. He couldn't help but laugh.

So many things happened during this period of time that only a month had passed. When Yang Qi thought about the two days at the Duke of England's Mansion, it felt like a lifetime ago.

At today's meal, everyone took turns raising their glasses to toast Song Hongwen and congratulate him on his promotion according to their seniority and status.

This time, Song Hongwen got close to the fifth prince and was promoted. All the masters in the Duke of Song's Mansion were excited.

Mrs. An, Aunt Yin, Yang Lan and others were naturally happy that their status and capital would rise with Song Hongwen's promotion. An Xiaoqiu was happy that her position in the Xiao family would become more secure in the future.

Everyone in the Duke's Mansion was extremely happy during this meal, and the old lady even drank a few glasses of wine, which was a rare event.

After lunch, Yang Qi sent Xu back to Shi'an Courtyard, and then he returned to Linhu Courtyard.

Lying on the couch, Yang Qi rolled left and right several times before getting up.

"Hey, I was so sleepy on the road that I lay down on the bed but couldn't fall asleep at all. It was really uncomfortable."

Scratching his head, Yang Qi put on his coat, took a book, went to the back lake, snuggled in a comfortable chair, and flipped through the book.

Although this messy herb garden is a bit annoying, Yang Qi no longer cares about it once he starts reading.

On the other side, in the East Palace, the Crown Prince’s study.

Yuan Ruiyuan walked out of the dungeon, wiped the blood off his hands, and asked Peilin beside him: "Today is the first day that the girl has returned home. Is she doing well? Has she encountered any troubles?"

Peilin shook his head: "Miss Yang Qi is smart and clever. Although An and the others wanted to make trouble, they are no match for Miss Yang Qi."

Thinking of the girl's playful look, a smile inexplicably appeared on the Crown Prince's face. This girl has always been smart. After experiencing so many hardships this time, she must be more mature and steady in handling things.

Although there are many complicated people in the Mansion of Duke Song, and each of them has deep thoughts, for the maids, it should be like a fish in water, and they should be able to move forward and backward freely.

If Yang Qi knew that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince thought so highly of her, she would definitely be happy for a while.

It’s really strange to think about it. An and An Xiaoqiu only use those same tricks. I don’t know why I was so stupid in my previous life to be fooled by these people.
