Chapter 121 The Wei family entertains distinguished guests!
Wei Zhendong was dumbfounded. He really thought that his daughter had picked up a doll. Wouldn’t that be bad?
If my daughter brings a baby home, my wife will probably be furious!
Wei Wanlin noticed his father’s stunned look, and he laughed: “Father, do you think Ruyi picked up a kid? Hahahaha…hahahaha…”
Qin Beiyu also laughed: "Uncle, that's not a kid, it's a tiger cub!
Today, a tiger fell into the pit of my cousin Ruyi on the mountain and broke its neck. It gave birth to a tiger cub before dying. "
Wei Zhendong...
"My little ancestor, I have spoiled you so much that I even brought tiger cubs home. It's hard for your mother not to be furious!"
Wei Zhendong went over and took his son down. Shen Ruyi jumped down and opened the swaddling clothes to show his father: "Daddy, don't you think Jiabao is cute? He's like a cat!"
Wei Zhendong thought for a moment and came up with an idea: "Ruyi, when you go home, just say this is a cat cub, don't say it's a tiger cub, okay? Otherwise, during the New Year, your mother will be furious again..."
Shen Ruyi...
You are afraid of your wife's dominance, and yet you want us to follow suit. It's really helpless!
"Okay! I'll listen to Daddy. Daddy, this is my cousin from my great uncle's family. He's visiting our house. Let's make some pheasant and mushroom soup tonight, and then roast two rabbits to entertain my cousin!"
Wei Zhendong felt a little nervous when he saw his nephew, who was out of touch with worldly affairs, actually wanted to have dinner at his house tonight.
This kid has never eaten at his house before. Why did he change his temper today and want to come to his house for dinner?
Qin Beiyu bowed and said, "Uncle, Beiyu wants to go and pay a visit to my grandmother. I want to have dinner with her at home tonight. In addition, I want to invite her to the New Year's Eve banquet and bring your whole family to have some fun together."
Wei Zhendong couldn't control his expression. He said blankly: "Ah...you want to pay respect to the Grandmother? That...that Ruyi...no! Then Wanlin, you should take Beiyu to pay respect to your grandmother.
I will take Wanqian and Ruyi to arrange dinner for tonight..."
Wei Wanlin looked at his father's expression and couldn't help but want to laugh, but he was also helpless. Qin Beiyu must have taken a fancy to his sister Shen Ruyi, otherwise he wouldn't have broken the precedent and had dinner at his house!
Wei Wanlin could only smile and lead Qin Beiyu to his grandmother's yard. He whispered, "Does the prince like my sister?"
Qin Beiyu looked at his brother who knew him best and told him the truth: "Wan Lin, I don't know if I like her, but I don't think I reject her."
Wei Wanlin...
"Really? That's a good thing! But my sister is different from ordinary girls. She said she would marry herself and would not let anyone interfere. Her husband has to be chosen by her.
If you like her and want to marry her, you probably have to figure it out yourself. Otherwise, I'm afraid that my family, or His Majesty's arranged marriage, won't work on her!
It is said that when she gets angry, she won't stay at home and will go to the farm to live for a month or two. My father and my brother have to go to coax her every day. She is really the little ancestor of our family!"
Qin Beiyu smiled. He could imagine that the little girl did have a bad temper!
He said slowly: "Wan Lin, I'm not sure about this matter yet. I don't know how I feel now. Anyway, she held my hand and ran for two blocks, and I didn't feel bad.
Today she and Wan Qian threw me down, but I didn't feel anything. She almost fell into the pit, but I dragged her out from a long distance and she was fine. I'm sure I don't reject her contact!"
Wei Wanlin...
Is my sister really not my sister? No way!
Qin Beiyu...
"Wei Wanlin, what's that expression on your face? If I were sure I liked her, I would take action!"
Wei Wanlin...
"You talk as if you're really going to get married! Anyway, I'm engaged, and it will be soon after the New Year..."
As the two were talking, they arrived at the courtyard of Madam Wei. Uncle Five had already gone to inform them in advance. Madam Wei was so excited that she asked all the maids in the courtyard to leave.
Only the fifth uncle was left to serve him. The fifth uncle smiled and said, "Oh, the prince is here. I pay my respects to him!
Young Master, please invite the Prince in quickly!"
Entering the old lady's main room, the Wei family's lady was sitting there solemnly. When she saw Qin Beiyu coming in, she stood up excitedly, but when she thought of the specialness of this child, she sat down again...
Qin Beiyu took a few steps forward and bowed in the middle of the room: "Grandma, I'm fine. Beiyu is back!
Today I happened to go hunting with Wanlin and my brother and sister-in-law, and came to visit you as soon as I came back. Beiyu would like to invite you to the palace on New Year's Eve to reunite with the family and celebrate the New Year together!
The old lady of the Wei family smiled from ear to ear: "Your Highness is so polite. I'm glad you're back. His Highness and the Crown Princess miss you day and night. You've been away for eight years, how can they not miss you?
Let your uncle and the county lady go on New Year's Eve. I will stay at home and burn incense for my deceased relatives!
We have a tradition in our family. We invite our ancestors to our house on that day, and someone has to be at home to look after them and continue the incense!
When the time comes, just ask your uncle to take his family there. You are all young people and you will have a lot to talk about when you get together!"
Qin Beiyu looked at the old lady of the Wei family. His hair stood on end. He took two steps back and said, "Grandma, are you feeling well now?"
Qin Beiyu's instinctive action made Wei Wanlin speechlessly roll his eyes. He couldn't help but complain in his heart: It's hard to change a person's nature! He probably approached his sister just because he saw her beautiful. It's okay. When he saw his grandmother, didn't he instinctively step back again?
The old lady of the Wei family said happily: "Wan Lin, please let the prince sit down! The prince has never eaten dinner at our house. Let him stay here tonight. Let the county lady arrange the prey you hunted. Let's have some meat tonight!"
Wei Wanlin asked Qin Beiyu to sit down and said, "Grandma, father, sister and the county lady are already in the kitchen preparing the meal.
There is no time to carve up the big prey, so I can only make some mushroom chicken soup and roasted rabbit tonight."
The Lady of the Wei Family smiled and said, "That's good, that's good...
When you were in the Northern Frontier, did you two brothers often go to war together?"
Qin Beiyu smiled slightly and said, "Yes! We were always together in Northern Xinjiang. We have been good friends since we were young, and when we fight together, we can cooperate very well!
Beiyu thanks you for raising my mother so well. I know you have paid a lot for her. My father and Beiyu are always grateful for your hard work."
Lady Wei burst into tears instantly: "Good child...good child, this is what you should do!
Your mother is a poor child. Her parents died early. As her second aunt, how can I not take care of the child?
Fortunately, your father, the Crown Prince, is a good man. He and your mother have had a very good relationship for many years. He is the comfort of our family!"
The three generations of grandparents and grandchildren talked for a while, and then the little guy Wei Wanqian rushed over.
He might have been coaxed by his sister Shen Ruyi again, and his little apple face smiled and shouted: "Grandma, cousin and big brother...the meal is almost ready, let's go to the hall to eat!"
The Wei family originally ate in the main hall, but due to Qin Beiyu's situation, it was impossible for him to sit around and eat with them, so they could only eat at separate tables in the reception hall of the Duke's Mansion.
Tonight, meals were served separately in the reception hall of the Duke of Fuguo's Mansion. That is, the old lady, Shen Ruyi and Wei Wanqian sat in one place, Wei Wanlin and Qin Beiyu sat in one place, and Wei Zhendong and his wife sat in one place.
Shen Ruyi really didn’t know Qin Beiyu’s situation, or maybe his father had just secretly given her some general knowledge, which really scared Shen Ruyi!
She was really scared. Yesterday she dragged him across two streets and today she knocked him down. If she were to kill the royal grandson, she would probably be unhappy in the future!
Besides, the Chen family had also started eating at this time. Sitting at the dining table, Chen Wen threw his chopsticks in anger. Pan Qiaoyun blamed Pan Hong, the person in charge, with heartache!
"Manager Pan, what happened today? Why don't you go hunting with the kids?
Look how childish he is! The carriage hasn’t been brought back yet…”
Chen Shengda picked up the rice bowl and said, "Madam, why are you blaming Manager Pan? His mother is sick at home, so he asked for leave this morning.
Chen Kuan has gone out of the city to tow the carriage back, so Madam, please don't be angry. Wen Yi, please pick up the chopsticks for your father and eat well!
Wentong also eats. In the future, discipline your brother well and don't spoil him!"
Chen Wentong: "Yes! Father..."
Chen Wenyi's tears flowed down his cheeks like they were free. He complained, "It's all my fault, brother. There were so many prey on that carriage, why didn't we bring one back?
I just want to eat wild game... woooo..."
Chen Shengda said to a table: "Chen Wenyi, do you want to be beaten?"
Pan Qiaoyun couldn't stand it anymore: "Husband, why are you being so mean to the child? The child just wants to have a bite of meat.
Wentong, you too, if there is prey in that car, let's buy one and give it to them to win money.
How can you be a big brother if you make your brother cry on New Year's Day? "
Chen Wentong said with a bad face: "Mother, do you know whose carriage brought Wenyi and I back?
When I saw the sign of fortune and treasure, I realized that it was the carriage of the Fuguogong Mansion..."
