Chapter 658 Chapter 658
Qin Qingdong prepared a small banquet in his own yard. In addition to the familiar faces such as the third son of the Huang family, the eldest son of the Liu family, and the two sons of the Li family, there were also others.
Chun Ge took care of everything inside and outside, and even went to the old lady's room to grab two maids to help.
Pei An went to pay his respects to the old lady first, and couldn't help asking about Song Guanzhou's health. When she heard that he was doing well, Old Lady Qin nodded in relief, "This child has not been well this year. I have asked Master Huijue to light a longevity lamp for her. Yesterday and the day before yesterday, I also sent people to Longen Temple to burn some valuables for Lord Song and his wife. This is the only bloodline left, so please protect it well."
Pei An stood up and thanked the old lady with a deep bow.
"To be honest, Aunt, things are going wrong in my family, and there is no elder to teach me. Thank you so much, Aunt. Fortunately, you are here to take care of me. Otherwise, it would be even more dangerous."
Old Madam Qin took his hand and felt it was a little cold.
"Don't worry. No one has a smooth life. There is still a long way to go. Who can say that it is not a good thing to encounter more things now? Who can tell whether it is a blessing or a curse? Just be clear in your conscience."
Pei An nodded in agreement.
"Aunt, Master Huijue also said the same thing to me the other day. He also mentioned that Guanzhou and I... were not a good match and should not have been together, which is why there were all these twists and turns."
"Whoa!"
Madam Qin patted Pei An's hand gently, "These words are spoken by masters who are not in the mundane world. How can ordinary people who are truly trapped in the mundane world have the ability to be prophets? In my aunt's opinion, you and Guan Zhou support each other, and the husband sings and the wife follows. It will definitely be a good story in the future."
Pei An lowered his head, and the grievance in his heart almost burst out.
But he immediately restrained himself and responded to the old lady's words, "Don't worry, my husband and I have narrowly escaped death many times this year, and we will definitely cherish each other more in the future."
"now it's right."
Madam Qin looked at Pei An and became happier and happier. Finally, she couldn't help but whispered, "Guan Zhou is a lucky star. You two will surely live happily together."
After saying that, he let Pei An go and drink.
Pei An was also very familiar with the Qin Mansion, but the old lady was worried, so she sent a maid to lead the way. When the maids saw the handsome and dignified Fourth Master Pei, they all blushed.
Only when he was sent to Qin Qingdong's courtyard did he kneel down and take his leave.
A'lu was running out of breath and just reached the courtyard wall. Seeing Pei An about to lift his robe and step inside, he shouted at the top of his voice, "Fourth Master, wait for me for a moment."
Pei An stopped and looked in the direction of the voice, "Alu, where have you been?"
A'lu ran up to him, swallowed his saliva, and whispered, "You are staying at the Qin residence today. I thought I should go back and tell the young lady the news, so as not to wait for you for dinner and get hungry."
Pei An was tall, and now he was standing on the stone steps, looking down at Aru, with a hint of displeasure in his stern eyes.
A'lu whispered, "Fourth Master, the young lady is still sick..."
The couple's quarrel really made the servants anxious. If it was like the prince and his wife, who were arguing with each other, the servants would have a chance to persuade them.
But the couple remained silent.
Lying on a bed, eating at a table, he didn't look angry, but he didn't say a word!
Seeing this, others were itching to speak up for them and tell them everything.
Pei An snorted, "Your young mistress is in good health. She won't wait for me to come back, so she will go eat. Why don't you complain?"
Alu's neck shrank and his body leaned back slightly.
"Fourth Young Master, you are not going home tonight. You have to go boating on the lake with the Second Young Master and his friends tomorrow. You haven't seen the Young Madam for two days, so you should go home..."
You don't need to look up to know the sharp eyes on top of the head.
He gradually lost his voice, and when he looked up again, he saw that his fourth son had entered the courtyard. Just as he was about to enter, Chun Ge shouted at the top of his voice on the path, "Brother Alu, come and give me a hand!"
Next to him stood a half-person-high wine jar with a white background and blue flowers.
Alu trotted over, looking surprised, "Such a big pot of wine? How many gentlemen are coming to drink it!?"
But it’s a lot!
Chun Ge said with great joy, "It's not wine, but... our cousin is here."
"Cousin? There are so many cousins in your family. Which cousin are you talking about?" Alu leaned over, grabbed the handle of the wine jar, and worked together with Chun Ge to lift it up.
"Humph! You'll know in a moment."
The two of them carried it to the Qinyun Pavilion on the side of the courtyard. At this moment, the maids were still going in and out to arrange the wine and food. Alu took a look and asked, "Put it on the second floor?"
Chun Ge nodded.
"The second floor is more elegant, and there will be plenty of room for five or six gentlemen to sit together."
The two men carefully carried the wine jars to the second floor. At this time, there were tables set up, with two or three people at each table, and there were also yaoqin, bamboo flutes, dongxiao and pipa.
"Brother Chun, did the second young master invite a girl he likes to come?"
The girls here are not ladies from famous families, but prostitutes who make their living independently, like Zhu Baoyue.
Chun Ge shook his head repeatedly.
"Of course not. Not to mention that your fourth son doesn't like it, even your cousin doesn't like it."
"Oh, which cousin is it? Tell me quickly, don't make me anxious." Chun Ge heard Alu's curiosity, smiled, pushed the window and pointed at Qin Qingdong's door, "Of course it's the second young master Yan."
Hey!
Alu smiled and said, "Master Yan is back?"
Chun Ge quickly silenced him, "I came to the capital quietly. I just entered the palace yesterday to report to the emperor. I will leave the day after tomorrow. That's why my second son is hosting a banquet tonight."
As soon as Pei An stepped into the main room, he heard a familiar and elegant voice, "Ji Zhang, congratulations!"
"Second Brother Yan?"
Huang Zhi and others sitting on the chairs beside him all laughed, "Silang came the latest. I'm afraid Erlang didn't tell him that Lord Yan was coming to the banquet today."
Pei An took a few steps forward and greeted the Second Young Master Yan.
"Xi Hui never mentioned it, I thought it was just an ordinary banquet, I didn't expect it to be you, my second brother, who came back."
Pei An could not express his joy, and Liu Furan beside him also started laughing.
"Not to mention you, Mr. Qin II didn't even mention us, so, Silang, you don't feel wronged."
Yan Zhirang raised his head and smiled elegantly, "Erlang is naughty and is joking with all the old friends. To be honest, I have a lot of things to do, and it is also thanks to the sympathy of Your Majesty that you allow me to rest for two days."
Pei An nodded, "Second brother has been out of Beijing for more than three years."
Yan Zhirang looked at him carefully, then looked at Huang Zhiliu Furan and the others, and said with a pleased smile, "I thought you would still be young after returning, but looking at the rest of you, only Ji Zhang has started a family and established a career."
After that, he pointed at Huang Zhiliu Furan and Erlang, who had never married Li's family, and said, "You will have to drink a penalty drink in a while!"
