General is Pregnant - C25
On the ninth day of the seventh month, the sky was clear and cloudless. It was a wonderful day.
Early in the morning, there were more than ten carriages parked in front of the Fang Residence. They were preparing to bring their families to the Chen Estate to celebrate their birthday. Duke of Chen was a country’s uncle after all, and Fang Family was also a relative of the Chen family.
Just the birthday presents in the rooms were filled with two carriages, one was a coral tree, the other was a mutton fat jade carving of a birthday duke, the rest was inlaid with gold and silver jewelry, the screen was extremely eye-catching.
Because Fang Heng had to give his grandfather a birthday celebration, he couldn’t be imprisoned in the ancestral hall anymore. Today, he had changed into a set of silver, embroidered robes with green embroidery and his expression became much calmer.
Ling Wan was still pink all over, and although her skin seemed to match well with hers, she seemed a little petty. She followed Fang Heng respectfully and entered the carriage behind Mrs Fang, carefully waiting on him.
“Is everyone here?” The Mrs Fang asked indifferently.
Housekeeper Li swept his eyes over the last carriage and said slowly, “Second Young Master and Second Young Madam just replied that they will go over shortly. Second Young Madam is still not ready yet, so we’ll need to wait a while.”
“Humph!” What do you think you are? A large family is waiting for the two of them? ” Fang Yue coldly snorted.
She had dressed up well today, so her grandfather’s birthday would definitely come to many children from influential families. If her grandfather could give some advice to the Hu Family, then I think it would also be possible for and her to sleep in a room.
Mrs Fang’s calm face flashed with a hint of coldness, and he immediately said: “Since that’s the case, we’ll head out first.”
The Mrs Fang was clearly throwing Fang Yu and his wife aside. It would be best if those two things that couldn’t be put on the stage never appeared again.
Fang Yue helped the Mrs Fang into the carriage and laughed: “For such a grand banquet, Ling Shuang cannot dress himself as a boy or girl, I think it must be extremely boring right now!”
Mrs Fang looked at his daughter’s smiling face and sighed to himself. In the end, she was too young and could not endure such a thing, so he said slowly: “She is definitely not that easy to deal with. It is not worth it for such a fine jade to touch a tile. ”
Although Fang Yue was not convinced, he still nodded his head, but he did not agree with it. What did Ling Shuang count for? The Ling Family did not even have someone to support him. It was not easy to find a male who was still a cripple. If not for Ling Family’s decline, how could Emperor have taken her military power away so easily?
She was actually quite interested in the news that Ling Wan had inadvertently brought up yesterday. Who cares if you’re a great general or not, as long as it landed in her hands, she would definitely teach you a lesson.
“Right, have you become familiar with the ‘Song of the Beauty’ you prepared today?” Mrs Fang only hoped that his daughter could use her father’s birthday banquet to show her talent. At that time, with the addition of the family background of the Fang Residence, what kind of good son-in-law in the world would not be chosen by his own daughter?
“In reply to mother, Yue’er definitely won’t have any problems practicing that melody for a few months. Mother, don’t worry.”
“En!” Mrs Fang nodded happily. From the moment her eldest son, Fang Heng, caused such a scandal, she was so angry that she almost died, hoping that this time, this pair of children would give her some hope.
The Mansion of the Duke of Chen arrived quickly, and stopped his carriage outside the second door. Fang Xiu Wen accompanied the Minister in the front to deal with it. After greeting the Chen family’s patriarch’s own sister-in-law, the Mrs Fang walked into the garden where the birthday feast was being held.
The Chen family’s banquet this time was extremely large. Just from the wedding invitation, they sent out thousands of pieces, and even more people came to deliver gifts. The large Mansion of the Duke of Chen’s front courtyard had long been filled with all kinds of gifts.
The banquet was set up in Mansion of the Duke of Chen’s Spring Festival Garden. There were hundreds of flowers in full bloom, pine trees surrounded the area, and even the banquet table was arranged in a grand manner. The dishes at the feast were exceptionally exquisite. There was a cold dish with a peacock spreading its tail, a Lilium Begonia Soup, an Ice Flower Silver Ear Dew, and dozens of other delicacies. In the middle of each hot dish was a large bowl of steamed lamb with cow’s milk – a karma lamb dug out from the womb. The price of the feast was about one hundred taels of silver.
All sorts of Chen Family disciples offered their birthday presents to the Duke of Chen. Even the Crown Prince above the palace sent a rare jade statue of Hainan Guanyin.
The Duke of Chen sitting in the middle wore a dark gold colored gown, his skin was slightly black, his figure robust and his facial features rough. With an imposing aura, a pair of deep eyes under his thick eyebrows caused one to be unable to help from feeling a sense of oppression.
“Grandfather,” Fang Heng slowly walked forward with the box in his hands, bowing as he said, “This is the birthday present Heng`er has gifted Grandfather.
Chen Mao, who was standing beside Duke of Chen, quickly received it and opened it for him. A burst of dazzling light came over, and unexpectedly, there were twelve baby palm-sized Eastern Ocean Southern Pearl.
It was rare to find one bead like this, but now that he had gathered twelve, it was quite rare.
Duke of Chen was clearly very satisfied, after ordering his men to take it in, he even chatted with Fang Heng for a while, obviously having forgiven Fang Heng for what happened on the floral vessel.
Mrs Fang slightly nodded his head, just as he was about to say something that would make the old man happy, he suddenly heard surprised exclamations from the entrance of the garden.
The crowd all turned to look at the door, only to see that Fang Yu was dressed in a pure white embroidered gown, on it was embroidered a complex cloud pattern, and it was even a dark line. The flowing clouds on the corner of Fang Yu’s clothes floated up and down as he walked step by step into the Flower Hall, as if they were alive. He had a coiling dragon jade belt on his waist, and his long black hair was tied up in a black jade crown.
The gazes of almost all the young girls at the banquet were deeply attracted, but the woman who followed closely behind Fang Yu made their hearts instantly fall to the bottom.
Ling Shuang was now following Fang Yu from the back. Before she came, her clothes were only made up by Fang Yu, but even so, she was still extremely nervous.
Because she had never worn such a woman’s outfit, even before she had transmigrated, she wore either a military uniform or a tight suit. This was the first time she wore such complicated clothes from ancient times, and although she felt awkward, she didn’t dare to show the slightest bit of fear.
Today, they had come to add fuel to the fire, so of course, they had to show off in their best condition.
Everyone looked at Ling Shuang in shock. There had never been anyone who could wear a color that looked so tacky like red to be so breathtaking.
The gauze on Ling Shuang’s body was completely gold-red, supporting her lustrous white skin. The originally cold and unrestrained phoenix eyes overflowed with light against the strong red contrast. There was a beauty in her eyes that was hard to describe. Other than being breathtakingly beautiful, there was nothing that could be done about it.
It was one word — peerless in its glory!
