Chapter 0125 – Full Moon Banquet (1 / 2)
by Jessie@AFNCCOne month later.
Chen Mansion is decorated everywhere, red silk hanging high, gold silk carved lanterns all over the corridors, all kinds of flowers and potted plants competing, dotted between them, a good piece of prosperous scene.
The main courtyard set up more than two dozen tables of wine, various colors of brocade on the round table, all seasonal delicacies. The table casually placed gold and silver tableware glittering, and another from the Western Region of the glazed wine pot crystal clear, through the amber-colored agar jelly, seems to contain endless fragrance.
The guests were dressed in fancy clothes and traveled to and from the banquet table. Between the drinks, laughter rose and fell. Some familiar merchants and businessmen got up to talk to Chen Zisheng or raise their glasses to celebrate, while some good people gathered in one place to whisper.
“The Chen family of Jiangcheng is still rich and generous, but it is only a child born to a servant girl, but also this kind of big occasion to organize a full moon wine. The one holding the child over there is the birth mother of that servant girl, right? Looks but mediocre, can coax the Chen family groom even let it attend the banquet, seems to really want to spoil the concubine to destroy his wife.”
“Why don’t you see the great young granny? I remember that young granny is still from the famous Xie Clan, how can she allow her husband to fool around like this.”
“I heard that the Xie family’s young granny has been sick for a long time, and doesn’t have the heart to take care of these things.”
“The Chen family’s eldest son is twenty-five years old and has only just gotten his first child, but it’s not precious. Naturally, the servant girl is also a man of God. And I heard that today’s banquet is not only for the child’s full moon feast, but also to celebrate the Chen family’s eldest son’s other pregnant concubine’s promotion to aunt.”
“That is indeed a double happiness. But this Chen family dalang is the most favorite banquet lively nature, how not to start the wine, but also combined in a place? A banquet, but with two protagonists, he is not afraid of the two concubines making a scene.”
“I heard that he touched the old master’s mold and was reprimanded, saying that he shouldn’t be spending so much for a concubine and a child, and only then did he stop.”
In the center of the banquet, Caidie was holding her newborn baby, accompanied by her nurse, accepting the congratulations of the guests. Cai Die’s face rippled with a bright smile, one by one, properly thanked the guests, and took advantage of the gap to look at the other side of the door to the cold and clear Xiang Capsicum, revealing a provocative smile.
Xiang Capsicum revealed a forlorn look, and on the pretext of changing his clothes, he quietly exited the banquet through the corner door.
“Is Auntie feeling bored?” Xiaolan followed behind, carefully saying, “Why don’t you ask the slave girl to accompany you for a walk?”
Xiang Capsicum let out a giggle, the forlorn look in her eyes all but gone.
“I was just teasing Caidie, how come you were tricked too? Cai Die likes this kind of star-studded scene, but I’m sick of it. Why don’t we make her the only protagonist, and be pleased for a little while longer.”
Xiang Capsicum has already made up her mind, in the future is to escape from Jiangzhou City, naturally should not be in front of people too much to show their faces. Her dress today is also extremely simple, only need to bow her head, can be obliterated in the crowd.
Xiaolan, however, will be wrong: “also, with sister’s stunning appearance, only with casual makeup one or two, no matter where you stand is eye-catching, have long been accustomed to.”
Xiang Capsicum angrily nodded Xiaolan’s head, and whispered, “Before I came out, I had already given Mingyue a gesture, and I don’t know if she saw it or not. If she didn’t see it, I still need to trouble you to go to the house to look for her later.”
Xiaolan obediently responded, and not long afterward, while watching Mingyue hurriedly come out of the corner door, cautiously looking this way.
Fragrant Capsicum nodded to her distantly, and then held her stomach as she walked lightly. Her stomach was also slightly bulging, and since she was still about three months pregnant outwardly, she only used her wide robe to cover her stomach.
Akatsuki would agree, and the two split up, picking their way through the paths and eventually meeting in the corner of a cloister.
“Fragrant Capsicum, don’t worry, those things have been disposed of cleanly, and will certainly not be called out.”
Ming Yue lowered her eyes and blamed herself, “It’s all my fault, I was still careless. But since Aunt Bai doesn’t want to do anything, can’t we really strike while the iron is hot and take his life?”
