Winter has passed, spring has emerged, the wind blows the water, ruffling the spring water in the pool. Listening to the melodious nightingale and looking at the lush green vegetation and pink and delicate flowers around the Japanese style hall, I couldn't help feeling that spring is in full bloom. Today’s banquet is both a banquet and a small reunion banquet, and it comes on a beautiful day. Under the bright moonlight, the breeze is blowing, the bamboos in the garden are swaying, and the hall is filled with laughter and laughter, presenting a picture of a night banquet in which everything is in harmony with the family. .

The house of Hefeng Hall is surrounded by mountains and water. It is very interesting to eat Qingfeng wine and admire a pond of "Mingyue" koi.

"Brother, when you and your father come back this time, has your majesty given you any good treasures? Brother, I am going to attend the birthday party of Liulang of the Liang family, but after thinking about it, I really have nothing to offer. Brother, you might as well feel sorry for me. I feel sorry for my brother." Xie Hao'an was already a bit drunk after eating two bottles of wine, and he was boldly plucking the tiger's hair.

While picking up the fish bones for Gu Ruosu, Xie Haowen glanced at Xie Hao'an and said, "How can you easily give away the gift given by the emperor? If you want to give a gift, I remember that the Liulang of the Liang family is the most arty. You Just find a calligraphy and painting to send to me."

"Oh, but a good calligraphy and painting is really too expensive, and if it is made by everyone, it will be priceless. Don't tell me, little brother, I have no money. Even if I have money, I have nowhere to spend it..."

"Mom... just let your father and brothers and sisters help your son..."

In the past, Xie Hao'an looked smart and cute when he was dressed in red. Now, his face is flushed with a hint of drunkenness, and his eyes are becoming more and more blurred, like a pool of spring water, which makes people call him stunning.

Gu Ruosu didn't even eat the fish in the bowl. She just looked at her "darling" son and said:

"Why don't you help him? Xiao Liu should have a good relationship with Liu Lang of the Liang family. It's a good friend's birthday and it's appropriate to give him a generous gift..."

Xie Ruqing put a freshly peeled shrimp into Gu Ruosu's bowl, then picked up a wet handkerchief and wiped his hands and said: "I have several masterpieces in my warehouse, which were given by some colleagues. I put them horizontally. There is also ashes there. You can go to the housekeeper tomorrow to get the key and pick it out yourself."

"What my father said is true! Then my son will thank his mother!" Xie Hao'an has always been the smartest, and he will behave well when he gets an advantage.

"Come, mother, try this mutton. My son went to the hunting ground to hunt it himself two days ago. Try it~"

"Come, mother, my son will feed you~ah~"

"Ah~"

Xie Hao'an stood up and was about to put the mutton into Gu Ruosu's mouth. Gu Ruosu opened her mouth expectantly and waited for the beautiful man to feed her. However, just a few minutes away, she suffered Xie Ruqing's "venomous hand".

"Your mother has a weak spleen and stomach. The lamb leg cooked today is too greasy and not suitable for your mother to eat. Your second brother is as thin as a bamboo pole. He eats it." As soon as Xie Ruqing said this, the mouthful of lamb was taken away and thrown away. It fell into the bowl of Xie Haoxue who was eating silently.

"Pfft, second brother, you should eat more, you are as thin as a bamboo pole~" Xie Haodao, who was watching the excitement and not taking it too seriously, came to Xie Haoxue and said.

As he said that, he picked up a huge duck leg and put it in Xie Haoxue's bowl.

Xie is as studious as a bamboo pole: ... shivering and afraid to speak.

[My father is so old that he is even jealous of his own son. This is not what the books of sages say...]

"By the way, why are we the only ones having dinner today?" Gu Ruosu, who was already a bit drunk like Xie Hao'an, was counting heads in a daze, and found that no matter how many people she counted, they were not the same as the number of people she thought should come to the banquet. After being different, he suddenly asked.

"Mom, the children are eating in their own courtyard, and they are not allowed to come over and disturb us."

"Oh, what about your wives? Why didn't she come?"

"They happen to be sick, mother, and I don't want them to get over their illness."

"Ah? How do you say you're sick? I looked pretty good a few days ago, right?"

Xie Hao asked: "..."

"Oh, mother, let me tell you the truth. The eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law must be afraid of seeing me, so they pretend to be sick and not come." Xie Haoda immediately came to the rescue.

"You? They are your sister-in-law. What are they afraid of you for? You won't put a concubine in your brother's house. What is there to be afraid of..." Gu Ruosu looked like I was right.

Xie Hao replied: "...haha...mother..."

"Oh, mother, what's so hard to understand about this? My fifth sister is just like a robber, taking whatever I like. My sisters-in-law must be afraid that my fifth sister will rob me, so they didn't come~" I don't know the inside story, But Xie Haoan somehow rescued everyone.

Everyone: [This guy is quite smart. 〕

Gu Ruosu looked suddenly enlightened, then silently took off the bracelet she was wearing and hid it in her sleeve.

Everyone: Does my wife/mother think I am blind? ? ?

"Mom, don't worry, I won't steal anyone's baby from you~ But if you want anything, my daughter, I can help you get it~"

"Right, Sixth Brother." After saying that, Xie Haoda pinched Xie Hao'an's waist hard. The pain made Xie Hao'an want to cry, but he didn't dare to cry out.

"Ah...yes, yes...my fifth sister is the most filial..."

"Hahaha, that's good, that's good. I believe that our Xiao Wu is the most filial child in the world." Gu Ruosu, who was speaking the letter, took off several rings on his hands and put them down. Into the sleeve on the other side.

Everyone: "..."

Xie Ruqing, who heard her sleeves jingling in response to Gu Ruosu's eating movements, finally sighed helplessly, put her hands into Gu Ruosu's sleeves, and took all the jewelry back one by one. Gu Ruosu's hand said: "Don't worry, I'm here. If Xiao Wu dares to take something from you, I will break her legs and bring you her wealth, okay?"

Maybe it was because Xie Ruqing's eyes were very serious, or maybe it was because the fragrance on Xie Ruqing's body was so reassuring, Gu Ruosu nodded with trust, and then took the initiative to put her hand in front of Xie Ruqing so that he could help her put it on.

Xie Haoda: [Dad... I am your biological daughter, and you treat me like this? Is it really good?]

Others: "Sure enough, the sky is big and the earth is big, and mother is the biggest."

"Okay, let's continue eating." After helping Gu Ruosu put on her jewelry, Xie Ruqing handed the chopsticks to Gu Ruosu's hand, and then silently gave Xie Haowen a look.

Xie Haowen also understood the situation and secretly took Gu Ruosu's wine glass away. He whispered to his servants to get the utensils to put the sour plum soup in the wine glass, and then quietly put the wine glass back.

After the reunion banquet, everyone was full of wine and food, but they still felt that they could not fully enjoy themselves, so with Xie Ruqing's permission, everyone took some sobering tea to the "Mingyue" Bridge in the garden and drank freely again. The garden also invited several musicians to play popular music during the prosperous times, and also asked Xie Haowen and Xie Haoda, who were good at music, to sing in harmony to add to the fun. Under the moonlight and among the silk and bamboo orchestra, everyone was naturally so happy that they forgot to leave. So I fell into a deep sleep and dreamed well until dawn. And in the dream, I seemed to feel that I was floating on the Mingyue Bridge, enjoying the happiness of family.
