MTL - Charm King Poison Queen-Chapter 83 Banquet storm (1)
Chapter 83 Banquet disturbance (1)
The New Year's Eve is coming soon, and the old lady sighed while flipping through the almanac: "Why haven't the third son returned? Can they catch up with the New Year?"
The third child in the old lady's mouth is the third master Ma Fu. The old master's cousin in Dengzhou passed away. The third master took a few young masters to the funeral, and helped take care of the family rights by the way. It's only autumn at that time, and it's deep winter now, and I haven't come back yet.
Mother Luo said: "Didn't the third master write a letter? He said he was on the way. I reckon it will only be a day or two."
The old lady nodded, and said again: "Go to Putuo Temple to offer incense sticks."
Every New Year's Eve, the old lady would send people to the temple to light a shot of high incense, which is an unshakable habit.
Mom Luo cleaned up and went.
On the other side, several daughters also woke up early to prepare for the banquet. Since it is a palace banquet, it should be sooner rather than later.
Since she was beaten up, Ning Zhen has been asking for leave to rest at home. From time to time, she scolded Ning Yue in the room, making everyone in the house know that she hated Miss San.
This is of course Ning Yue's order.
"Fifth sister, let's play to the end, we can't get along too well, otherwise people will suspect that we didn't fight at all that day."
The servants all said that the third lady and the fifth lady were so at odds, and the third lady was going to a banquet, while the fifth lady was lying on the bed crookedly, and she must be very uncomfortable.
Ning Yue didn't seem to be affected by the public opinion at all, and went out after dressing up meticulously.
Soon, Ning Xi and Ning Wan also went out one after another.
Ning Xi's carriage did not drive directly to the imperial palace, but turned to the left and took a shortcut to a desolate alley, where someone was already waiting for her.
Ning Xi opened the curtain and looked at a tall man in green clothes. The man was only eighteen or nineteen years old, with delicate features and a very elegant smile. He was holding a folding fan, and the fan pendant shone with a thin white light in the cold wind as he clasped his hands.
"Cousin." He greeted.
This man is none other than Lin Chengfeng, the son of Lin Yonghe's brother.
Mrs. Lin had only two children in her life—the eldest son, Lin Kun, and the eldest daughter, Lin Lanzhi. It is a pity that Lin Kun passed away three years ago, leaving behind only one son, Lin Chengqian, who is not yet ten years old. Lin Chengfeng is the eldest grandson. Da Lin Chenggan is nine years old and has not yet married. He once hinted that he wanted to marry Ning Xi, but Ning Xi didn't like him. He originally planned to wait for a few more years, but unexpectedly news came out that Ning Xi was going to marry Xuan Yu, and he finally gave up.
Desperate to give up, Ning Xi is still his cousin.
He got into the carriage, glanced at Ning Xi, and said with a smile, "Is my cousin still angry?"
Ning Xi turned her beautiful eyes, and threw away the fruit in her hand: "That trash Ning Zhen! I can't even take care of a sick child! I have to do it myself!"
Lin Chengfeng poured his cousin a cup of tea, and said with a smile, "Not everyone is as smart as my cousin."
Ning Xi's expression softened a bit: "Is everyone ready? But don't make any mistake!"
There was a moment of hesitation on Lin Chengfeng's face: "Cousin, do you really want to do this? If my uncle finds out, will it be bad?"
Ma Yuan's fiery temper might beat him to death!
Ning Xi hooked the corners of his lips fearlessly: "My father was guarding the border, how could he come back to teach you a lesson for such a trivial matter? You didn't let Ma Ningyue die!"
"Grandmother is not easy to mess with." It was Mrs. Lin.
Ning Xi sneered and said, "If you don't tell me, how can grandma know? Don't worry, since I dare to do this, I'm sure Ning Yue won't complain!"
