The Feast

141 Opening the Middle Door

"The second sister gave it. She used to play by herself. I saw that she liked it very much. She chose a gourd and painted it with flowers and birds. It was right. She said that after the younger brother knew about it, she did n’t know where to get it. When I got such a big gourd, I sneaked a beautiful picture on it, probably to give you a picture. "Su Nuan Nuan said while making gestures. Judging from the size of her gestures, the gourd was really big. .

Duan Tingxuan looked at his wife divinely: "Are you sure he is going to send me a gourd? Isn't it killing me? What kind of beautiful picture do you draw? Isn't it provoking you and my husband? Huh! I know that product Without good intentions, knowing that my image is not good in your eyes, he will add fuel to the fire. "

"Don't say that, people are kind-hearted. It's harder to draw beautiful pictures, but it's harder than flowers and birds. Let you say this, the younger brother's efforts are all in vain." Su Nuannuan smiled happily, but then said again : "However, my third brother's heart is good. What he can do is to give you such a big gourd? I can't hold the wine on my back? You are not Tieguai Li."

The couple talked and laughed together to collect the dew, and the moon disappeared unconsciously. Then they were satisfied and returned to the room. Sure enough, after a while, the sky lighted up, and there were voices everywhere in the originally silent mountain temple.Duan Tingxuan and Duan Tingye arranged for the Yulin Jun and Jia Ding Nursing House to escort the gangsters away. Here Su Nuan Nuan and Aunt Jing gathered the girl servants and prepared to go down the mountain.

After the assembly in the courtyard, everyone was about to set off, and they saw Duan Tingxuan walk in from outside the courtyard door, so everyone knew that Shi Ziye had something to say, and he stopped quickly, his eyes were fixed on Duan Tingxuan, secretly guessing the purpose of Shi Ziye's coming .

Duan Tingxuan's eyes glanced lightly, and he saw several daughters-in-law who were put up yesterday standing at the end of the crowd. He reached out his hand and said in a deep voice, "You guys come out."

A few daughter-in-laws glanced at each other, and they were still a little afraid, but hesitated, but still came out and knelt down on the ground in unison: "The slave-servant meets the prince."

"Grandma pleaded for you last night, so I decided to spare your life." Duan Tingxuan naturally would not go round the corner with a few servants, and directly went straight to the face, expressionless: "However, death is exempt, life is inevitable. Probably you I also know in my heart what will happen after I go back. Your grandma is kind and ca n’t bear to make you suffer. As the saying goes, save people and save them, so I give you a choice: if you are afraid of going back, you can leave now. I have nothing to do with Anping Hou Mansion and can live freely. I will not pursue her as a fugitive slave. "

This was really beyond the expectations of several daughters-in-law. He suddenly raised his head and stared at Duan Tingxuan for a while, but soon lowered his head to look at each other again, and hesitated in the eyes of two people.But listening to the promised daughter-in-law of the He family who first bowed down last night, Shen said: "The slave-servant would like to thank the grandfather for his life. . "

The words did not fall, and two daughter-in-laws said in unison: "The slave-servant Xie Shizi Ye's life grace, the slave-servant would like to go back to the house to receive the punishment.

So the two hesitant daughter-in-laws sighed, and their eyes became firmer, and they expressed their unwillingness to leave.

"Finally, you still have a bit of responsibility, and did not forget the words of your grandmother last night. That being the case, after returning home, everyone punished a year of salaries in the name of the poor protector ..." Duan Tingxuan said here, he paused, his eyes were on Others passed over with dignity and said in a deep voice: "I have been punished for these few people, and the matter was revealed last night. If I let me hear rumours about them in the government in the future, I must track down who is chewing my tongue. Root, the Lord cut off her tongue, if you don't believe me and your grandma's ability, just try. "

After he finished speaking, he no longer ignored the shocked servants who were thundered, and came to Su Nuannuan with a smile and said: "With my order, even if I can't hide this thing completely, There will never be an uproar, will the wife be satisfied with this arrangement? "

"Satisfied, very satisfied, really worthy of the little Hou Ye, if it is really silent, it is already a blockbuster. With your shock, there are probably not many people who dare to chew their tongues. This is the best result." Su Nuan Nuan gave her thumbs up generously, but her husband coughed and whispered, "I'm trying so hard, but it's not just to listen to your praise, that stone cake ...... Do you look back? Should I try it? "

"It turned out to be for food?" Su Nuannuan's heart of admiration like the water of the Yellow River disappeared instantly, probably the disdain in his tone was too obvious, and Duan Tingxuan also felt very embarrassed. Sternly said: "What do you know? I thought it was just my greedy? You also look down on people. I just because of the simple and convenient way to listen to this stone cake, if you need to go out to fight in the future, you will have this It can be both full and good, and it can guarantee the combat effectiveness of the army to the greatest extent. "

"Is there such awe-inspiring? Are you sure you are not looking for a sounding reason for your greed?" Su Nuan Nuan looked at Duan Tingxuan suspiciously, but saw her husband's face sink, and said: "The heart of the villain is the gentleman's belly, hum! Anyway, go back and get a tasting, I want to investigate the feasibility of using this stone cake as military food. "

"Well, go back and do it for you. Should we go now? The old lady and the second sister don't know how to look at it now." Su Nuan Nuan laughed secretly, but Duan Tingxuan's performance last night was very good, so She doesn't mind letting her husband give away public welfare.

After staying in the mountain temple for one night, the people of Anping Hou Mansion, who experienced a thrilling battle, were finally able to return home safely.When the carriage passed by the two closed vermilion gates, and then went to the west corner gate, he suddenly heard Duan Tingxuan's order to stop. The carriage driver didn't know, so he stopped quickly, and then he saw Shizi dismounted. When I came to the vermilion gate, I ordered the two gatekeepers to say: "Open the middle gate to welcome Mrs. Shizi back to the house."

The two concierges were stunned. I didn't know which one of my grandfather sang.People like Anping Hou House will not easily open the middle door except for the princes who have received the imperial edict and the official visit.Even if they are as honorable as Mrs. Hou Ye and Mrs. Shizi, they have only one chance to enter through the middle of their lives. That is, at the wedding ceremony of Hou Ye and Shizi, they were carried in by the scenery of the eight-lifted grand sedan.

"What are you still doing? Your wife is trying to capture the bandits on the hill this time and make great contributions to the court. They are eligible to enter the palace through the middle gate."

Duan Tingxuan saw that the two family members were as if they were dumb gooses, and he explained with a deep voice. In this way, the family members finally recovered, although they still felt wrong, but this was an order from Shizi. They were only ordered to act, and they could n’t be punished. Moreover, the grandfather was not a good messenger. I heard that the grandmother was even harder to mess with. They could n’t confuse them with these two powerful masters.

The vermilion door opened slowly, and even Su Nuan Nuan was shocked. He quickly poked his head and said to Duan Tingxuan: "What are you crazy about? There were so many people who tried to capture the robbers last night. Enter? Do you want Houfu to become a joke in Beijing? "

"Of course only you can enter, because only you are the wife of Shizi." Duan Tingxuan was unmoved, pulling Su Nuan Nuan out of the carriage with a smile, and then helped her out of the carriage. This scene fell on the capital where the news came. In the eyes of the people, there was an exclamation.

"Don't be surprised, I just want you to accompany me through the middle door again." Duan Tingxuan took Su Nuannuan's hand and stepped side by side with her, explaining softly. In fact, this is only one of the reasons. One reason is that he can never announce it.He knows that his wife is no longer the same as Su Nuannuan. He loves her to respect her. However, when he held the big wedding ceremony, the woman he worshipped in the world was not her. He owed her a magnificent marriage, but he could not make up for it. Today The two entered the front door hand in hand, but it was only a compensation for this regret.

Su Nuan Nuan can guess Duan Tingxuan's thoughts, but this makes her even more touched and helpless. She wants to tell Xiao Houye that for a foodie, such a scenery is really not important, but feels that this is unavoidable. Disappointed Duan Tingxuan's good intentions: Forget it, anyway, the two of them in this life can only be named couples, if Duan Tingxuan feels that this will make him feel more comfortable, then do it.

According to Su Nuannuan's thoughts, he wanted to bring Aunt Jing together, but of course Duan Tingxuan could not agree.Aunt Jing also knew the opportunity. When she saw Su Nuannuan turned her back, she knew she was in danger of pond fish. She quickly drew her body into the carriage and did not die out. In this way, she escaped from the disaster and was able to enter the house from the West Point Gate .

The news that Shizi Ye and his wife entered through the middle door immediately spread throughout the house. At that time, the women's families and the old Hou Ye Duan Ni were waiting for the news in the north courtyard of Fang Laojun. After returning, they were all very pleasantly surprised. Fang Laojun even led his son, daughter-in-law and others to meet in person, and was persuaded by the old Houye and Mrs. Yang. In any case, the elders of this age were not allowed to welcome the juniors. Reason.

But then it was said that Grandpa Shizi blatantly opened the door and walked hand in hand with the grandmother, which made everyone in the hall stunned. The face of the old Hou Duan Ni immediately sank and shot the table angrily said: " It's nonsense. "

Mrs. Yang's heart was tight, and she wanted to explain a few words for her son, but she didn't know what to say.Liu Min was ecstatic in the side, she was worried that this time she and Shi Yurou left Su Nuan Nuan, I am afraid it would cause Duan Ni to be unhappy, but unexpectedly Duan Tingxuan made such a faint trick: that middle door is How can the face of Xungui's mansion be opened for every woman?Even when he married in as a wife, he did not receive such treatment.
