Qian Shuyu hid behind Mo Lan, but Su Jingwan was a man who could talk but not take action, so he walked away comfortably after getting the advantage with his words.
But she couldn't help but Qian Yuanfeng grabbed her and slapped her with spiritual power, and soon her face was burned.
"Sister Mo Lan, save me."
Mo Lan stretched out her hand to block Qian Yuanfeng's slap. Qian Shuyu's face was still useful to her.
"You little bitch, get out of the way! Otherwise I'll beat you too!"
Lou Guiqing grabbed her arm and pulled her back, "Today is your grandmother's birthday party, and you are beating up the guests here. If you weren't already married, I would have sent you to the ancestral hall!"
Qian Yuanfeng struggled to break away and looked at his mother with hatred, "Don't laugh so hard here. If it weren't for the Lou family, would you still have a need to exist in this family? Your housekeeping rights were taken away by that cheap maid Qi Ji. Come on, do you think you are noble if you don’t fight or grab? Look at other mothers racking their brains to plan for their children, but you, abandoned me since I was born, and locked yourself in the yard after you came back. , that wimp who forced me to marry the second prince, did you plan for me? You didn’t!"
Lou Guiqing's hand hidden under his sleeve was bruised by his pinching, "If you want to get out, get out quickly, don't embarrass yourself here."
Qian Yuanfeng suddenly ran out of energy, his eye circles were red, his body was exuding black mist, his eyes rolled, and he fainted.
Mo Lan frowned. She had only seen this black mist on the demons. It should be said that people who practice the dark system would have it. The demons are all in the earth realm. Are there people who practice the dark system on the mainland? ?
"Someone, take the young lady back to the palace."
Lou Guiqing rubbed his forehead and said, "Everyone is laughing. Let's start the banquet. Please move to the front yard."
Gong Xian stepped forward to support her, while Lou Guiqing shook her head and said she wanted to go back to her yard to rest.
"This is the first time Miss Mo has seen her go crazy. The rest of us have seen her many times, so don't be frightened."
Su Jingwan looked at Mo Lan playfully, the probing look in her eyes not concealed at all.
"Thank you, Miss Su, for worrying. Mo Lan is not afraid."
Mo Lan remembered her. She scolded Qian Shuyu on the day of the arena competition. She was the legitimate daughter of the second wife of the Su family.
The Su family was controlled by her aunt's father, Su Qicheng. After the ancestor Su Zongyun went into seclusion, and Su Xilian was named a noble concubine, the second child Su Qilin lived separately.
The second son, Su Xirui, married the daughter of the Liu family, the richest man in the south of the Yangtze River. One year after the marriage, Su Jingwan was born, but at this time, a woman came to the house with a three-year-old boy to admit her marriage.
During her confinement, Mrs. Liu was so angry that she fell ill and died within two years. Her wife became his wife and gave birth to a son, Su Jingyang.
The second wife left, and Su Xirui was a loser. He had failed the imperial examination for many years, and his business was in a mess.
He always reached out to the Liu family under the guise of Su Jingwan's mother.
"Sister Mo Lan, your clothes are dirty, come to my room and change them."
Qian Shuyu gently tugged on her sleeves, still looking downcast.
Song Ying pulled Mo Lan to her side, "You guys played this trick last time in the palace. Why do you want to take my cousin away and then find a man to slander her? Cousin, I have clothes on my carriage. You follow me."
What is Qian Shuyu's purpose? It was Mrs. Qian's idea to let her come to the banquet, or it was her own.
Mo Lan thought for a moment, pulled back her sleeves, and said to Qian Shuyu with a smile, "Shuyu, you are still busy. Mistress and Aunt Qi are not here. Your Aunt is the only one greeting the guests. Go and help her." .”
forecourt
Qi Xiangfen sat at the main table, with Qian Dezhang on the left and the seat on the right empty.
It seemed that the Qian family didn't care about others knowing that their master was at odds with his mistress, so they deliberately separated their seats, and Lou Guiqing was not present yet.
The female guests are separated by a screen. Although it is a world of heavy martial arts, women have not escaped the feudal shackles.
Mo Lan sat down next to Song Ying, "Where's your mother?"
"Come in a moment."
Qin Jixi and Qin Jixiang were sitting side by side, and it seemed that they came just before the banquet started.
Seeing Mo Lan, Qin Jixi glanced at her, then raised her head proudly.
"Look, she looks like that. Who is she holding it for? It's like she is the protagonist today."
Song Ying looked disgusted, grabbed a fruit and ate it hard, "Bah! What's so sour!"
Qin Jixiang laughed at her unceremoniously: "Hahaha, country bumpkin, this is a cold fruit. Pick it when it is green all over and keep it, and eat it with honey."
"Ha! Then why don't you wait until it's ripe before eating it? It's unnecessary!"
Song Ying threw the fruit in her hand back into the plate, gradually lost her sitting position and leaned on Mo Lan.
After Mo Lan changed into her clothes, she tied up her hair. Without the hair to cover it, the red spots on her face became more obvious.
There were more and more people at the banquet, and many people began to point at Mo Lan.
"What are you looking at? If you look again I will dig out your eyes!"
Song Ying slapped the table and stood up, causing the male guests to look around.
"Why, she dares to be ugly, and she doesn't dare to let people tell her."
Qin Jixiang looked proud. Today, her makeup was light and elegant. A change from her past style, she looked somewhat similar to Qian Shuyu.
Song Ying rolled up her sleeves and was about to hit someone, but Mo Lan held her back and said, "Everyone is paying so much attention to me, so it seems that Mo Lan is the protagonist today. Don't forget that this is Mrs. Qian's birthday party."
As soon as these words came out, the voices of discussion became quieter.
These people's fathers or brothers all work under Qian Dezhang, and they come here to curry favor with the Qian family.
"Even if you are self-aware, I don't know what Qian Shuyu's pig brain is thinking, and he actually invited you here. If I were Mrs. Qian, I would beat her to death for inviting such an unlucky person."
Qin Jixiang talked more and more enthusiastically, completely unaware that Qin Jixi kept winking at her.
After saying that, she suddenly felt a chill on her back and turned to face Su Xibai with a murderous look on her face.
She was immediately so frightened that her legs went weak and she knelt on the ground, "Su, General Su, what are you going to do?"
Su Xibai stared at her for a long time, and the murderous look in his eyes dissipated for a long time, "Aunt Qian, live a long and healthy life. Xibai just came out of the military camp. She still hasn't taken off her evil spirit and hasn't changed her clothes. Please forgive me."
Qi Xiangfen's face was full of smiles, "You are busy with military affairs, so don't worry, please take a seat quickly."
Su Xibai nodded, walked to the empty table next to Mo Lan and sat down, his eyes swept around, and many people immediately lowered their heads.
Mo Lan whispered to Song Ying: "Cousin, your mother is so handsome!"
Song Ying sat up straight with an arrogant look on her face, "That's right!"
Qian Shuyu's face turned red as he hurried in and sat down not far from Mo Lan. Hickeys could be vaguely seen on his neck.
"The fifth prince has arrived!"
Mo Lan smiled coldly, picked up the wine and drank it down. It turned out to be like this.
The old lady's eyes gleamed as she stood up to greet Gong Shaoqian, "The fifth prince is here unexpectedly. I have met the fifth prince before."
Gong Shaoqian hurriedly dragged her, "Old madam, you're welcome. This is the Sapphire Guanyin. When Shuyu sent the invitation, I ordered people to search everywhere. I hope you like it."
"Okay, okay."
Qi Xiangfen smiled and praised repeatedly, and quickly asked people to put it away.
Lou Guiqing was not here, so the first person on the right belonged to Gong Shaoqian. The old lady suddenly said, "Girl Mo Lan is also here today. You will be getting married soon. I wish you congratulations in advance."
Gong Shaoqian paused, picked up the wine glass and returned the favor. After drinking, his eyes searched around and locked on Mo Lan's position.
However, Qian Shuyu suddenly appeared and blocked his view, "Sister, I toast you this cup. The eldest sister and the third sister were so rude today. Shuyu is very ashamed."
"Why didn't you feel ashamed when you seduced the fifth prince?"
Song Ying's words made her face even redder than before. She was not drinking the wine she was holding in her hand, nor was she not drinking.
