Nirvana In Fire - Chapter 88

Xie Mansion is a combination of Yipinhou Mansion and Fangma Mansion, and the regulations are slightly higher than similar ones.

In addition to the general conference hall, warm hall, living room, flower hall, side hall and other halls, an ingenious and chic water porch on the lake was built between the inner and outer courtyards, named “Lin Ling Pavilion”.

Due to the moderate number of people this year, Princess Yang came to designate the place where Xiao Jingrui ’s birthday dinner was held.

After the last guest Xia Dong arrived, Xie Yu sent someone to inform the house and led the guests into Lin Ling Pavilion.

Since everyone is an acquaintance who usually has contacts, only Mrs. Zhuo knows a little less, so the introduction time is very short, and they will be seated in a short time.

Because it is a private dinner at home, the seating arrangement is not very rigorous. The Xie Yu couple is the main seat, and the Zhuo Dingfeng couple is accompanied by each other. Xia Dong and Meng Zhi shunned each other for a long time. In the first seat on the right, Xia Dong is opposite him. Mei Changsu is on the right hand, and Xia Dong sits on the right.

In order to prevent Xia Dong from habitually twisting her face, Yan Yujin carefully moved her seat a foot away.

The rest of the young people were in order, and only Gong Yu insisted on sitting in the last seat. Everyone held her back.

Zhuo Qingyi liked this sister very much, so she squeezed in front of her in a few cases.

Xiao Jingrui also wanted to take care of Fei Liu, but unfortunately no trace of a teenager was found everywhere, Mei Changsu smiled and told him not to care.

Shou Xing is wearing a new robe sewn by Mrs. Zhuo today.

Although the skills of the Jianghu women are not comparable to the masters of Ruifuzhai, their minds are still full of flowers. The neck and cuffs are embroidered with the back moiré, the presser feet are made of gold thread, and the belt is even more jade The agate was set in a circle, and it was magnificent.

Fortunately, Xiao Jingrui had poems and poems, so that he would not change the appearance of the rich prodigal.

However, when Yan Yujin first saw him trying on this clothing, he still commented very gently: “Jing Rui, seeing that you are willing to wear this clothing, I only know that you are truly filial.”

At the beginning of the banquet, all parties’ gifts were already delivered.

The elders gave nothing more than clothes and footwear. Zhuo Qingyao and his wife gave a jade flute, Xie Bi sent a party inkstone, and Zhuo Qingyi made a new Jiansui.

Yan Yujin sent a whole set of exquisite harnesses.

Xia Dong and Meng Zhi both sent ordinary ornaments, and Gong Yu brought a delicate embroidered screen on the table.

Among the gifts, Mei Changsu ’s Huxin Dan was not conspicuous at first. If it was n’t for Yujin, he asked curiously. After asking, he exclaimed a few times with a fuss and no one noticed him. Such a precious thing.

“No, no, Brother Su is so eccentric. Sending such a good thing to Jing Rui is really a mess. I haven’t even sent it to me. You obviously like me more!”

Yan Yujin was laughing, and a slender and powerful jade hand suddenly appeared next to him, ready to unscrew the thickest part of the flesh on his cheek, and with a little effort, his face flushed.

“What’s the matter with you? Isn’t July half-time yet? Maybe Mr. Su will give you something better at that time.” Xia Dong giggled and sighed into Yujin’s face.

Uncle Guo, struggling to the side with his face covered, said bitterly: “My birthday is not July and a half, it’s July 7th. Don’t remember Xia Dong anymore!”

“Oh, Tanabata …” Xia Dong glanced at him, “It’s not much different from July and a half, are you in a hurry?”

Yan Yujin stared at her tearfully.

Please, Sister, Qixi and July are not just days, they feel a lot worse, OK …

“Okay, okay,” Xie Bi smiled and came to the round. “You are really fighting for everything. Although Xinxin is expensive, it is not something you usually eat.

When one day you vomit blood and lose your breath, I think Brother will feed you a capsule … “

Yan Yujin immediately turned his angry eyes to Xie Er.

You only vomit blood, you only die!

This young man’s trouble, the initial restrained atmosphere of the banquet relaxed, and even the Princess Changyang couldn’t help but smiled and said: “Yujin sometimes comes to me crying and telling you to bully him, I didn’t believe it, today It seems that you are really bullying him … “

“Okay,” Xie Yu smiled. “How can anyone be treated like this, Ruier, please pour wine for everyone.”

Xiao Jingrui stood up as he promised, holding a black silver thermos, and filled the wine glasses for everyone in turn.

Xie Yu raised his toast and paid tribute. He said, “Children, Chen, everyone is here in person. Xie Yu is not ashamed to be.

Drink a glass of water and wine, and pay tribute to it. “Take a drink and drink.

Everyone on the table also drank the wine in the glass. Only Mei Changsuluo dipped his lips, and then put down the glass. Xiao Jingrui knew that he was not in good health, so he did not persuade him, and quietly ordered someone to send hot tea.

“Come here, since it’s a private banquet, please don’t be polite. Xie Mouxiang doesn’t know how to entertain guests. You can help yourself, just be your own family.” Xie Yu laughed and told his maid to pass Fruits and vegetables, to sit down and admonish themselves.

After three rounds of drinking, Xia Dong plucked his ears and dropped his hair, one-handed support, and a pair of phoenix eyes confusedly said to the master: “Xie Hou said that let us treat this as our own home, this sentence is Really? “

“This statement is natural.

Why does Master Xia have this question? “

“I’ll just confirm it.” Xia Dong’s face smiled with a charming and charming smile, and said softly, “I’m always capricious in my own home, but if there are any rude behaviors, I don’t think Hou is not strange?”

Xie Yu laughed and said, “Master Xia is just as straightforward as a man. What’s so strange about Xie Mou?”

“That’s good.” Xia Dong nodded slowly with her mouth closed, and Yaorou’s gaze suddenly became as cold as an ice sword, over Xie Yu’s shoulder, and shot directly at Zhuodingfeng beside the main seat. “Xia Dongjiu admires Zhuozhuang’s martial arts for his martial arts. He is pleased to meet you today.

At the same time as the cold tongue spoke, Xia Dong’s tall figure jumped up, using the ebony chopsticks in his hand as a sword, and struck Zhuo Dingfeng’s throat straight away.

Everyone was a little dazed after this sudden change.

Before the reaction, the two had come and gone to fight several tricks.

Although it only uses chopsticks as a sword, its powerful moves and four winds have made people breathe slightly.

In a few moments, dozens of strokes had passed, and Xia Dong withdrew backwards, withdrew from the battle group without warning like she was attacking, raised her hand and stroked the hair of the temple, until her body was fixed and flying. The corner of the skirt slowly sagged.

In the eyes of ordinary people, the look of Xia Dong at this time is as usual, and only a very small number of people can sensitively perceive a touch of confusion in her eyes.

Ning Guohou Xie Yu’s lips slightly sneered.

Xia Dong really is a persistent person.

The murder of the internal supervisor is actually cold now, but she still has not given up on the investigation, but she dared to invite her to come today, the necessary preparations have always been done, this female cantilever makes her want to move from Zhuodingfeng The angle is sharper than the wound on the dead, I am afraid it is not so easy.

“Wonderful and wonderful!” After the moment of silence, I was the first to clap my hands and praised, “Although the two have only dismantled dozens of moves, they have their own subtleties and illusions. The internal force and swordsmanship are amazing. Blessed. “

Xia Dongjiao smiled and said, “It’s really a slap in the front of the leader of Mengda University. It makes you laugh.”

Zhuo Dingfeng also said modestly: “It’s Master Xia Dong’s mercy, and if you take a few more tricks, you will have to admit defeat and beg for mercy.”

“Masters meet, how can we drink less? Come, everyone will drink a few more.” Xie Yu held the pot and filled a full cup in person, and handed it to Xia Dong in front of him. Obviously, he wanted to calm down the sudden waves. .

Xia Dong looked at him for a moment without moving, before slowly raising his hand to take the wine glass and looking up.

Zhuo Qingyao also walked over with his wife at this time and said: “Master Xia is really massive.

Qingyao also took this opportunity to respect the adults and have a drink. “

Xia Dong smiled shallowly and took a drink without saying anything.

Then Xie Qi, Xie Bi and Zhuo Qingyi all came over to toast at the suggestion of their elders, and even Mrs. Zhuo stood up to accompany her husband and toast the second cup.

Yujin, who was quietly saying something to Xiao Jingrui aside, felt a little strange, and asked in a small voice, “What are they doing? Are you drinking?”

Xiao Jingrui also whispered, “I rarely see Sister Xia Dong drinking, what is her drink volume? Or should I stop in the past?”

“I seldom see her drinking too … you see that blush, you should stop it, I am afraid she will get drunk to torture me …”

The sincere passing by the two of them just couldn’t help laughing, and turned to comfort: “It doesn’t matter, Xia Dong blushes with a drink, and a thousand cups just blushes … what were you discussing just now? “

“Not negotiating, I am reminding Jing Rui that the atmosphere is just right, and it is time to invite Ms. Gong Yu to add luster to this hall.” Yan Yujin said while turning her eyes to Miya Yu, who was sitting by the side of the seat, and saw her looking up Looking back, immediately throw a big smile.

Xiao Jingrui kicked him with a toe with a smile: “Okay, swallow it back, I’ll go and mention it to my mother.” After all, she was about to move, and she saw the close mother-in-law next to Princess Chang quickly walked to Xie Yu Beside him, he bowed his head and said something. Xie Yu nodded and turned back to his throne. He cleared his throat and raised his voice: “Everyone, the banquet is not fun, since there is a girl in Gongyin Square here, why not please She plays a song in order to wash away my vulgarity? “

As soon as this suggestion came out, everyone certainly agreed.

Gong Yu rose up and bowed to her clothes, saluting softly: “Hou Ye loves him.

Although Gong Yu is not talented, I would like to help you all. “

At this time, the maid came to hold the piano and set up a seat. Xiao Jingrui recognized at one glance that it was an ancient piano that her mother cherished very much. Normally, even the children were not allowed to touch it. Today, she will take it out and play it for a strange woman. Chong Gongyu’s music.

As a musician, although Gong Yu did n’t know how much she loved this piano, she was more able to appreciate the preciousness of this piano than Xiao Jingrui, so that after she took a closer look, she turned Stand up again and bow to the princess.

Princess Yang ’s expression on her face is still cold, but just looking at her slightly insignificant response has shown that the distinguished emperor ’s treatment of Gong Yu is extremely courteous, making Xie Yu, who has always known her temperament, slightly surprised. .

After sitting down again, Gong Yu slowly raised her hand and tried a few sounds, and it turned out to be Jin Shengyu Zhen, which was extraordinary.

Immediately after the jade finger twisted lightly, a gentle and beautiful sound came out, and the person who knew the law would know that it was the famous song “Phoenix”

Ordinary musicians perform music to match the occasion, but for everyone like Miya Yu, naturally no one cares about this.

Therefore, although she performed this beautiful song on the birthday banquet, she did not feel abrupt. The phoenix in the song, the phoenix in the sea, the phoenix all over the world, willing to perch from me, invite you to fly from the wings, just like Xiaoxiang greasy water, Touching people’s hearts and feelings, there is still a song, there are already a few people trance.

Although Xie Yu has read a lot of books, he only has a rough understanding of the temperament. Although he also feels that Qin Yin is beautiful and beautiful, he can’t understand the truth.

I just turned to see my wife’s eyebrows faint, tears in her eyes seemed to flash, and she felt a little unhappy.

After the song stopped, he coughed and said, “Municipal Gong Yu is really talented.

But today is a happy day, please play a more cheerful song. “

Gong Yu responded with a “Yes” word, and then stringed, a series of notes jumped out happily. It was a “fishing song”, with a sparse rhythm and a clear voice, making it sound like being in the sunset and watching the fishing boat sing. In the evening, forget about it.

Even if someone who doesn’t understand the rhythm listens to her this song, she also intends to linger and feel at ease.

But Xie Yuxin was not here, listening quietly and watching the expression of Princess Linyang without trace.

Seeing her eyebrows spread out, there was a faint smile on her lips, and then she felt relieved and secretly relieved.

Two songs touched, and there were four praises.

Yan Yujin applauded while cheering and demanded another song.

Gong Yu smiled and did not answer. A male servant in Xie’s house hurried forward from outside the hall, and he knelt down in front of Xie Yu, with a somewhat stern expression, panting: “Yu … Yuhouye … There is outside , Guests, customers … “

Xie Yu frowned: “What’s the matter? Didn’t you tell you to close the door and thank you?”

“The little ones can’t stop them, they have already come in …”

Xie Yu’s eyebrows moved, and a cold voice was heard at the entrance of the hall: “There is already an Old Testament, why did Brother Zhuo refuse guests? Could it be that he stayed in Ningguo’s Palace to avoid the challenges that lie ahead?”
