The cannon fodder original wife's bad story

Chapter 484

At the beginning of August, the old man of the Huang family wanted to celebrate his birthday. He didn't want to make a big deal about it, but he heard from a sorcerer that he was 59 years old and was about to enter his sixtieth year. This winter would definitely be colder than in previous years. If he didn't hold a birthday party, he would have a hard time getting through the year.

After hearing this, even if the sorcerer was lying, we couldn't just ignore it.

Huang Dalang usually doesn't mind his own business, but he likes to be in a lively atmosphere. He is more active in this matter and encourages his old father, "Just invite some of the well-known and friendly families to have a couple of meals, as a witness, and watch us, your children and grandchildren, show our filial piety to you."

The old man's legs were not very good, so he picked up a tiger-head green bamboo stick and was about to hit Huang Dalang, "Asshole, are you doing filial piety for people to see? Besides, after Sanlang gets married, you should quickly find a girl with a clean family background and have a few children."

Huang Dalang is a man of strong build, and looks simple and honest, but he is actually very clever. When his father yelled, he immediately jumped behind Erlang and said, "The family line will be passed down soon. You have grandchildren now. What are you afraid of? We have to hold the birthday banquet. I am familiar with the people in the Music Bureau. If we can invite the Pipa Boy to sing and dance, you will also enjoy the feast."

Old Madam Huang was so angry that she grabbed her eldest son and punched him a few times, but she was reluctant to use force, "Asshole, your father never likes crowds, how can he celebrate his birthday with you singing and dancing like this? According to your father's wishes, the whole family should sit together and have a good reunion dinner."

After saying that, he looked at Sanlang who was standing next to him and said, "Brother Zhi, fortunately Yunzhi hasn't left yet, is that okay?"

Before he finished speaking, Huang Dalang shouted.

"Of course not! How can such a bland meal be considered a birthday celebration? My father doesn't like Pipa Lang, so I'll order a play. The young and old haven't rested for half a year. Only a little entertainment like this can be considered a birthday celebration. Father, please agree."

After saying that, he turned around and walked to Huang Zhi, then bowed.

Huang Zhi lowered his head and said, "Father has raised us, and as my eldest brother said, we should be able to show our filial piety."

Ever since his marriage with Mu Yunzhi could not be reversed, he no longer had the joy of being the second-place Jinshi. He stayed in his study all day long, or stayed at Liu Furan's house.

The dejection was visibly evident to the naked eye.

Today, when Mr. Huang heard Sanlang say this, he thought that since he had been silent for many days, it would be good for him to say something. When the time comes, he could invite some of his classmates and confidants to the birthday party. When friends meet, he could say a few words of comfort, which would be better than staying indoors all the time.

Once the agreement was agreed, Huang Dalang left the trivial matters to his second brother and his wife, and he just went about deciding on his favorite opera troupe. However, Huang Erlang had a hard time deciding on the guest list.

After much thought, his wife Feng said, "Why not ask mother?"

The couple arrived at the main room, where Mu Yunzhi and Huang Zhi were having dinner with the old lady. After the maid reported, she welcomed Huang Zhe and his wife in.

"Feng'er, come quickly and have a drink with your cousin."

Old Madam Huang looked very kind and pulled her daughter-in-law over. The maid had already brought the bowls, plates, cups, and chopsticks. Huang Zhe quickly bowed and said, "Forgive me, mother. Feng'er and I have already had dinner."

The old lady refused, "Hurry up and sit down. You can have a drink."

Huang Zhe and his wife declined politely, so the old lady had no choice but to agree. "Go sit over there and have some tea. Sanlang and Yunzhi have already finished their meals. But I have bad teeth, so I chewed slowly and wasted time."

Several people said they didn't dare. Mu Yunzhi sat obediently beside the old lady, carefully serving her the soup and dishes.

After the old lady finished eating leisurely, Mu Yunzhi and Feng came over and helped her rinse her mouth and wipe it. After that, they helped her sit on the Hu bed.

"What do you two want to talk about?"

Huang Zhe then told the story, "Although my father's birthday banquet is a small one, there are many noble families in the capital who are on good terms with our family. It would be bad to miss any of them, so I just sent out the invitation. But——"

At this point, he looked up at his mother and said, "The Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion and General Jin's family will definitely send invitations, but... I heard that the Fourth Young Master's wife and Miss Jin are not on good terms. Is this possible?"

"Not suitable?"

Old Mrs. Huang looked puzzled, "They didn't say anything wrong at the Peach Blossom Banquet, could they have made a mistake?" But she ignored the fact that her third son paused when he heard one of the names.

Huang Zhe sighed, "Mother, you don't know. I'm afraid it's been a few months. I heard that the fourth young master of the Pei family brought her maids to the princess's villa. I don't know what they said, but it seems that they were not very friendly."

Huang Zhi waved his hand.

"Second brother, you worry too much. Last time, when the Fourth Young Master's wife and the Xiao Family's accountant had a math competition, I went to watch. The women also included the Jin Family's eldest young master's wife and eldest daughter. If they don't get along, they won't interact with each other."

Old Madam Huang breathed a sigh of relief and smiled kindly, "The eldest girl is open-minded by nature and has a broader mind than men. The lady from the fourth young master's family is a rare heroine in the world. I'm afraid the two of them met too late. How could they not get along?"

After that, he pointed at Huang Zhe and ordered, "You must invite them both. Yunzhi has just arrived in the capital, and except for Feng'er and the second daughter of the Liu family, she has no companions in the boudoir. If you can make friends with them, you will have a place to go in the capital in the future."

When Mu Yunzhi heard this, she was filled with gratitude and looked at Old Lady Huang, "Don't worry, aunt. Yunzhi will save it."

"The eldest girl is getting married soon. It would be a good thing if she could go out for a walk before getting married. As for the wife of the fourth family of Pei, I haven't seen her for a long time and I miss her a little."

At this point, Mrs. Feng, who was listening, came to the old lady and said, "Mother, please allow me to report. It's not that the young lady doesn't miss you. It's just that since the beginning of this year, the young lady seems to have bumped into the gods. She is either injured here or broken here. Now I heard that her leg is broken."

Hearing this, Huang Zhi couldn't help but add, "Young Madam has had a lot of misfortunes this year, but she is in a good mood. Last time when I went to the mansion, Young Madam asked how you were."

Mrs. Huang was very pleased. "I know that the daughter of the Song scholar is not bad. Speaking of which..." The old lady couldn't help but pull Feng aside and asked, "Have you heard any good news from the boudoir?"

When I met her at the beginning of the year, I asked her about the Crown Prince's wife, and she said she had never had one.

Now more than half a year has passed, and the old lady didn't want to think about anything else, so she just asked this question. Feng's face turned red and she shook her head slowly.

“It’s a pity.”

Seeing this, the two brothers Huang Zhe and Huang Zhi stood up and said goodbye, retreating outside the house. Old Mrs. Huang pointed at the two brothers who were leaving and smiled, "You forgot that my two children are cautious and polite. They really don't listen to anything inappropriate."

Without their husband in the room, both Mu Yunzhi and Feng Shi finally felt relieved.

"It's strange to say. I heard that the Song family has been here for nearly three years, but there is still no good news. Fortunately, the old lady of the Zhenguo Mansion is not in charge, otherwise the fourth young master's room would not be so empty."

"There are three kinds of unfilial behavior, and the worst is to have no descendants!"
