In the main hall, Mrs. Chen held her daughter's eyes red, and the fifth young lady, Chen Ruyu, sat aside eagerly and looked at Chen Rujin, who was now so extravagant, her eyes were full of amazement.

The previous fourth sister was already as beautiful as a flower, but now she has the dignity of a superior person.

"Why did you come back suddenly? You didn't even say hello. Also, what's going on with your face?" Chen Shuyang sat aside and asked, his eyes fell on Chen Rujin's face, and his brows were furrowed.

Chen Rujin smiled and said: "I accidentally touched something that shouldn't be touched. I'm allergic. I've already had the imperial doctor see it. It's because of this that I can't go to the palace banquet. Otherwise, I wouldn't have a chance to come back."

Mrs. Chen felt distressed: "Is it really all right?"

"Mother, it's really all right, don't worry, His Highness loves me very much."

When he said this, Chen Rujin's eyes shone brightly.

Madam Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

Whether her daughter is doing well or not, she can feel it.

"But you are too nonsense. Even if you don't participate in the palace banquet, there is no reason for the eldest concubine to go to her mother's house. If someone finds out, I don't know how to make a fuss."

Mrs. Chen's words were referring to Cao Bingbing.

Chen Rujin understood, and couldn't help sticking out her tongue, secretly thinking that that girl was taken away from her power and her feet were restrained, so she couldn't make trouble even if she wanted to.

"The third highness agreed, who dares to make trouble, and I went back to the third prince's mansion first and then came out quietly. No one noticed. When he leaves the palace, he will come to pick me up. Mom told the people in our mansion to keep their mouths tight and not to spread the word." Just do it."

When Mrs. Chen heard that Chu Qingyun would come to pick up her daughter in person after the palace banquet, a smile could not be hidden between her brows and eyes: "With His Highness' arrangement, I can rest assured that the servants in our mansion are all relying on ordinary people." , I will give an order later, and it will not be leaked."

While speaking, I heard Chen Hanlin's excited voice coming from outside. Listening carefully, there was still a faint trembling.

"Jin'er, Jin'er, my good daughter..."

Mrs. Chen rubbed her arms and got goosebumps all over her body.

Soon, Chen Hanlin ran in and saw the daughter surrounded by him at a glance. He hadn't seen him for a few days, but the old father felt like he hadn't seen his daughter for several years.

There was a surge in his heart, and the smile on Chen Hanlin's face became more and more loving, but he was stunned when he saw the red rash on Chen Rujin's face.

"your face……"

Chen Rujin raised her lips: "Father, it's nothing, just a little allergic."

Chen Hanlin nodded blankly,

Immediately, as if thinking of something, she stood in the hall, bowed her hands respectfully and bowed to Chen Rujin: "Meet my side concubine."

Chen Rujin was startled, jumped up from the chair suddenly, rushed over with a changed face, helped Chen Hanlin up, with a sullen look on her delicate face: "Father, what are you doing?"

"Side concubine, etiquette cannot be discarded." Chen Hanlin looked at Chen Rujin with a smile and said with a smile.

Chen Rujin stomped her feet angrily: "My daughter doesn't care what kind of ceremony, you are not allowed to fix these rules in my house, otherwise I won't come back next time."

Seeing his father salute to him, Chen Rujin felt extremely uncomfortable.

Seeing his daughter's eyes suddenly turned red, Chen Hanlin was at a loss for what to do: "Okay, we don't play by the rules at home. Now that we're back, let's have a happy new year."

The night is cold, the north wind howls, swaying the branches, the moonlight is like water, sprinkled with mottled light and shadow, but it can't resist the lively atmosphere of reunion.

Lu Mansion, the main hall in the front yard.

A huge round table was filled with the Lu family.

For the old lady in the middle, Lu Youping sat on her left, Lu Xiang sat on her right, Qiao Jingru, Lu Chao, Lu Qiao, and Zhao Qingya sat next to Lu Xiang.

There are not as many people as before, but it is more warm than before.

The dishes on the table are full of color and fragrance, exuding an attractive fragrance.

Holding the wine glass, Lu Youping got up, turned to the old lady and said, "Mother, my son toasts you, wishing you a happy new year and a long life."

As soon as he spoke, everyone stood up and said blessings to the old lady: "I wish grandma (old lady) a happy new year and a long life."

The old lady picked up the wine glass with a smile on her face, and looked at Qi Le's harmonious family, feeling indescribably satisfied in her heart.

Although too many irritating and embarrassing things have happened in the past year or so, but now that the family is united and the situation in the Lu Mansion is getting better and better, it seems that the previous sufferings are nothing.

After all, how can there be a smooth sailing life.

If the Lu family wants to go far and stand tall, they have to go through wind and rain.

"Good, good, good." The old lady said three good times in a row, raised her head excitedly, and drank the wine in the glass.

Everyone laughed and drank.

Then Lu Chao and other juniors toasted Lu Youping.

Lu Chao and Qiao Jingru were together. Lu Youping saw that his son, who was out of tune before, not only calmed down, but also passed the Jinshi examination. Their father and son were officials in the same dynasty. Have a face.

Then the two daughters Lu Xiang and Lu Qiao got up to toast.

Lu Youping looked at Lu Xiang with eyes that were more eager than his son's, which made Lu Xiang feel furious in his heart.

"Xiangxiang, you will be sixteen next year. If you have someone you like, you must tell dad. Dad will rob him, and he will snatch him as a son-in-law."

The corner of Lu Xiang's mouth twitched, she couldn't bear the heavy love of her old father.

"Oh."

The old lady looked at Lu Youping, and said speechlessly: "I didn't drink much, but I talked a lot. Sit down and eat."

Lu Youping rubbed his nose awkwardly, thinking that there is nothing wrong with him caring about his daughter's marriage?

Why does mother look at him with such distaste?

Forget it, drink and drink.

It is said that this wine has never been drunk before, and it is delicious.

After drinking a few cups, Lu Youping asked, "Where did you buy this wine? It tastes mellow and sweet. I'll give it to others as a gift later."

Qiao Jing subconsciously looked at Lu Xiang.

This wine was made by Xiangxiang, who said it was called Yuanzheng wine.

When I asked her how she came up with it, Xiangxiang smiled mysteriously, saying that she just borrowed someone else's light.

But Qiao Jingru is sure that she has never drank this kind of wine. It is not known whether Xiangxiang borrowed someone else's credit, whether someone gave her the recipe made by someone else, or whether she got inspiration from others.

But it's delicious.

Xiangxiang has only brewed ten altars, and this is the first time to drink it out tonight.

So Dad asked her where she bought it, but she couldn't answer.

This wine is brewed by Xiangxiang, it's up to her whether or not to let father know.

"I didn't intend to get a secret recipe for brewing wine. I tried to brew it. Dad said it tastes good. It seems to be a success." Lu Xiang smiled slightly.
