Chapter 116 Going to the Banquet
Chapter 116 Going to the Banquet
In the City Lord's Mansion, in the courtyard of Lord Su's wife.
Mr. Su was tidying up the clothes for Prefect Xu, and the husband and wife were talking in private.
Xu Jiyue ran over excitedly with Qingshan and shouted to Xu Zhifu,
"Mother! I want to go to Tianxiang Tower too!"
Before Xu Zhifu could speak, Su Zhufu patted Xu Zhifu's collar lightly, turned around and scolded Xu Jiuyue,
"Nonsense! Why are you going to Tianxiang Tower? There are only noble ladies there. What are you, a little boy, doing there?"
Xu Jiyue was not convinced and raised her head.
"Then why can my cousin go! My cousin is not from our family, why can she represent our family?"
Master Su pulled Xu Jiuyue over and teased,
"Xuan'er is the future wife your mother and I have chosen for you. If she can't entertain the guests on your mother's behalf, who else can go?"
Xu Jiyue got anxious when she heard this, and grabbed Su Zhufu with her backhand.
"Daddy! How could you do this!"
Then he turned to Prefect Xu and said unwillingly,
"Mother! I've already told you that I don't like my cousin and don't want to marry her. How could you let her entertain guests in your place?"
Magistrate Xu approached his son, patted his head with a smile and said,
"Jiyue has grown up and knows whether she likes it or not."
Xu Jiuyue looked at her mother and frowned.
"Mom, don't change the subject!"
With a smile in his eyes, Magistrate Xu gestured to Master Su to look at Xu Jiuyue, and they both looked at Xu Jiuyue and smiled.
Master Su took Xu Jiuyue and comforted her,
"You! Don't worry about it.
Your mother asked Xuan'er to help her entertain the guests so that she could come back early to spend the holidays with us fathers! It's not what you think!
Although your father likes Xuan'er very much and wants you to marry her, I won't marry you off so early, don't worry! "
Xu Jiuyue felt relieved after hearing what her father said. As long as it wasn't decided, there was still a chance!
Xu Zhifu looked at his son and breathed a sigh of relief, then smiled and said,
"not worried?"
Xu Jiuyue looked at her own mother teasing her, crossed her arms and turned her head away, snorting.
"Mom! Why are you imitating Daddy and always teasing me?"
Xu Zhifu couldn't stop smiling when he saw his precious son acting like a spoiled child to him.
"Okay, okay, Mommy, I won't say any more.
It's getting late, your mother, it's time to leave.
Just stay home with your dad. I'll go talk to them and be back."
When Master Su heard that his wife was leaving, he quickly walked up to her, took her arm and said,
"My dear wife, please drink less wine. You are the prefect, so you don't need to take care of them too much."
Xu Zhifu looked at her husband, who was still as beautiful as ever after giving birth to a son for her, and gently admonished her, and her heart softened.
I couldn't help but kissed Su Zhufu's cheek.
"Don't worry, Rou'er, I know what to do. I have to come back early to accompany you!"
Su Zhufu shyly covered her face that was kissed, and glared at Xu Zhifu.
"Wife! Jiyue is still here!"
Xu Jiuyue turned away consciously.
"I didn't see anything."
Xu Zhifu looked at his son who was quite perceptive, then looked down at his husband.
Wouldn't it be unfair to my son to not be close to him?
Xu Zhifu lifted Su Zhufu's chin and kissed him until his face turned red.
"gone."
Xu Jiuyue heard the sound of her mother leaving, then turned around and saw her father's face flushed.
Before he could speak, Master Su looked at his son's innocent face and quickly turned his back to avoid his son seeing him.
"Jiyue, I don't need any help from you, please go back first.
When I'm done here and your mother comes back, I'll send someone to call you over."
Xu Jiuyue was just thinking about how to leave when his father asked him to leave. He quickly agreed and walked straight out of the yard with Qingshan.
Qingshan watched his master walk towards the back door and asked in confusion,
"Master, didn't the master tell you to stay at home with the master husband? Why are you still going?"
Xu Jiuyue turned to look at Qingshan and said seriously,
"Of course I have to go! I have to warn my cousin!
Lest she think that my mother, by asking her to help entertain people, is recognizing her identity!"
Qingshan is difficult,
"But what if the master finds out?"
Xu Jiuyue patted Qingshan Road,
"So we have to find the right time!"
At the Jin Mansion, Su Yu had just gone out when it was almost dark. It was Jin Xuerong who kept pulling her and insisted on dressing her up!
Judging from Jin Xuerong's posture, Su Yu felt that he was going to make her outshine the rest of the audience.
Su Yu thought he was already very good at matching cosplay outfits until he met Jin Xuerong!
Jin Xuerong always felt that something was wrong with Su Yu's outfit.
Jin Xuerong instructed her to change her clothes several times, and she finally chose a black brocade gown with narrow sleeves.
He took out a box of jade pendants of various styles and showed them to Su Yu.
He even compared many hairpins before finally deciding on a simple white jade hairpin.
There were some other miscellaneous things, and Jin Xuerong didn't let Su Yu go until Fu Feng came to urge her and it was almost too late.
Before leaving, Jin Xuerong looked at Su Yu's heroic appearance and felt very proud. He urged her to come back quickly to spend the holiday with him.
In the carriage, Fu Feng looked at the radiant and heroic Su Yu and said with emotion,
"My Lord's appearance and temperament are unmatched in Cangzhou City!
The young masters of Cangzhou City would surely be unable to walk after seeing their master!"
When Su Yu heard this, he raised his eyebrows and said teasingly,
"Oh? Do you dare to say that in front of Xuerong?"
Fu Feng smiled awkwardly.
"Master, please don't tease me."
Su Yu smiled and shook his head, then asked,
"Have you found the embroiderer I asked you to help me find?"
Fu Feng listened to Su Yu talking about the business, and said seriously,
"My Lord has ordered us to find the best embroiderer. I have already sent people to find out the address of the best embroiderer of the new generation in Cangzhou City.
I just heard that many people from cloth shops and clothing stores have tried to persuade him, but no one has succeeded.
The embroiderer just said that he had been frightened recently and wanted to wait a while before looking for the master."
Su Yu frowned and said,
"Is this an excuse? Is he such a good embroiderer? Why do so many people ask him to do it?"
Fu Feng replied,
"I don't know if it's an excuse, but his embroidery skills are among the best among the younger generation.
The other embroiderers are either too old to keep up with the times, or are firmly in the hands of other cloth shops or garment shops.
This embroiderer is the best choice right now!"
Fu Feng hesitated and said,
"Master, how about you go and invite him yourself?"
The corner of Su Yu's mouth twitched slightly. Was she trying to make her sacrifice her looks?
"If you have real skills, I'll ask you for help."
Fu Feng was relieved now and bowed,
"With the master's invitation, it will surely be a success. I, your subordinate, would like to congratulate you in advance on the addition of a capable embroiderer!"
"Ah! Master, we've arrived at Tianxiang Tower!"
Dazhuang stopped the carriage outside and reminded him.
As soon as the carriage stopped, a waiter from Tianxianglou came forward to help hold the horse.
Dazhuang got off the carriage and made way for Su Yu and Fu Feng to get off.
