Chapter 299: When you go out, you give your identity to yourself
When the Queen Mother arrived, everyone stood up to say hello. They did not dare to talk and laugh as much as before, and everyone returned to their seats.
Yu Tingwan also pushed Wei Zhao to the Duke Shun's mansion.
Although today is a banquet for Wei Zhao. But the Queen Mother only glanced at him casually, without even greeting him.
She admired Wei Zhao as a good general, but he was really ignorant!
What is it about Ah Wu that is not worthy of him?
But he found a country girl. Isn't this just humiliating Ah Wu?
More or less, it means to express anger.
She was not very interested and just took Gu Wu to sit down at the table, which showed that she did not hide her love at all.
"There is no need to be polite. This palace is deserted. The Ai family are just here to join in the fun."
Everyone responded respectfully: "Yes."
Despite what he said, everyone was sitting upright, as befitted a noble family.
As soon as Yu Tingwan sat down, Wei Zhao stuffed a snack into her hand.
She looked around and no one was eating.
Yu Tingwan: "This is not good."
She also wants to be reserved!
Wei Zhao only said: "The materials are expensive, one piece costs ten taels."
Yu Tingwan:? ?
How many?
How much does it cost for something that disappears in one bite?
But...
She didn't understand anything else, but the pastries were extremely delicate.
Yu Tingwan lowered his head and looked at it carefully.
The emerald lotus cake is emerald green in color, with the fragrance of lotus, but with the sweetness of candied fruit.
She took a bite, and the taste was dense and layered on the tip of her tongue.
Delicious and not greasy. But there are only three pieces in a plate, and it's gone after three bites.
It’s so boring!
Ning Suchan sat upright, silently listening to the young couple's conversation.
Yu Tingwan: "The pastries are like this, so are the dishes better?"
Wei Zhao: "Good luck."
"But it's useless."
Yu Tingwan:......
Are you the same as you were in Ze County?
Wei Zhao: "The imperial dining room is far away from here, and there are many guests coming, so the meals delivered have to be kept close to the Holy Emperor and the empress in the palace. Some of them have already gone cold. Palace banquets are very delicate, so they don't pay so much attention to the taste. .”
Wei Zhao didn't say that no one would care about eating later.
He warned in a gentle voice: "Eat more, don't look back and find it hard to swallow and get hungry."
The maids then served snacks. Due to the limited capacity of the desks, the previous one has to be moved away from the next one.
Except for the fact that the plate in front of Yu Tingwan was touched, how did the other ladies bring it to them and how did they take it away intact?
The seat opposite the Duke Shun's Mansion is the Taifu's Mansion.
From time to time, Jiashan stared at the girl opposite who was nibbling on snacks.
She was worried: "Did the Wei family starve her and not let her eat enough?"
Gu Fuju regained his previous composure and lowered his eyes: "Madam, you are worrying too much."
"Wei Zhao is just not a good person, but he treats Yao Yao well."
Otherwise, there would be no such thing as today.
Jiashan: "She smiles so beautifully."
Unfortunately, he smiled at Wei Zhao.
"Which one is the Yu family?"
The Queen Mother suddenly spoke.
She was neither salty nor cool: "Stand up and let the Ai family take a look."
When I heard this, I was afraid that the person who came was not good.
Everyone's thoughts are changing a thousand times.
Jiashan frowned. He couldn't sit still and was about to stand up, but was pushed down by Gu Fu Ju.
"You should know what kind of temperament your empress has."
Gu Fuju gave her some tea: "Be calm and don't be impatient."
At this time, Yu Tingwan stood up from his seat, walked briskly to his seat in the hall, lowered his eyes and curtsied.
The Queen Mother sneered.
Yu Tingwan was ready to be pissed off by her.
Older people always have more anger.
Then...
The Queen Mother swallowed the strange anger in her mouth and could not say anything.
Jiashan was brought up by her, just like her biological daughter. Because of this, she cherished Ah Wu very much.
The Queen Mother was much less hostile to such a similar face, and she couldn't say harsh words. Not to mention her, even Gu Wu looked at Yu Tingwan with a sizing look.
The Queen Mother: "Have you ever studied?" Yu Tingwan: "Have you read."
Not good at that.
Queen Mother: "What books do you read?"
Yu Tingwan:......
How could she remember?
The book of enlightenment was torn up origami by her who was ignorant and ignorant when she was a child.
But when you go out, your identity is given by yourself!
She is quite good at putting gold on her face.
Yu Tingwan thought for a moment.
Think of the books Wei Zhao usually reads.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Yu Tingwan told the title of the book.
She still has a bright mind. When I saw Wei Zhao by the way, I insisted on holding her in my arms, holding her hand by the hand and memorizing the opinions she had written.
Wei Zhao chuckled.
No surprise.
After all, he has never been in the habit of writing opinions.
It was prepared for Yu Tingwan.
It was as if he guessed that Yu Tingwan had a good memory and would apply what he learned.
Jiashan sat up straight.
"This kid is really knowledgeable!"
Gu Fuju knew Wei Zhao's writing style as soon as he heard it.
There was something strange in his eyes.
As far as he knew, Yu Tingwan didn't like reading.
How much do you like it to memorize what Wei Zhao wrote?
The Queen Mother listened and sat up straighter. Shocked and sighing: "A girl like yours is willing to read these books? It's rare. It's even more unusual for a remote place to let a girl read and write."
She asked: "Are there any brothers or sisters at home?"
Yu Tingwan: "I am alone."
The voices of the Queen Mother and Yu Tingwan became softer when they spoke.
"Since you came to Beijing, you are also married far away. You can't accompany your two elders. Why don't you let Wei Zhao sell a house for them in Shangjing?"
Yu Tingwan whispered: "They are deceased."
The Queen Mother is old and her hearing is not very good.
"What?"
"They are deceased."
"Speak louder and stop being so petty."
Yu Tingwan clenched her fists and said loudly this time: "My parents have been laid to rest."
Queen Mother:......
She deserves to die!
Her momentum dropped.
The Queen Mother couldn't bear to hear this the most. Her parents just died early. She was also an orphan, and she also experienced this kind of experience!
"The Aijia didn't know it beforehand, and they didn't mean to make you sad."
Yu Tingwan: "It has been many years, and the most difficult days have long passed."
But she knew.
The Queen Mother did hurt someone.
Not her anyway.
Jiashan turned his head: "Property?"
Gu Fuju:......
After this experience, the Queen Mother did not embarrass her anymore. Send Yu Tingwan back directly.
As soon as Yu Tingwan sat down, he heard a high-pitched voice in the distance.
"The Holy Empress has arrived."
Emperor Ying Qian came with his queen.
When everyone was about to get up, they saw Gu Fuju taking a step ahead of them.
Gu Fuju seemed to have been waiting for Emperor Ying Qian for a long time. He strode over with straight shoulders and stern eyes.
He had been immersed in officialdom for many years, and he usually did not need to kneel down to pay homage, but he opened his clothes and knelt down before Emperor Ying Qian.
This scene happened so fast that no one could react.
Emperor Ying Qian was stunned.
"Ai Qing, what are you doing?"
Gu Fuju closed his eyes: "Brother Jingyuan was seriously injured back then, the border was raging with war, and the people were in dire straits. I made a military declaration to the emperor and rushed to the front line to negotiate with the enemy."
"It fulfilled its mission, but it also narrowly escaped death and was seriously injured."
"The Holy Father once granted me a favor, but now I don't know if I can still count it?"
