Chapter 231 Luck is limited

If you give too much, you will feel pain, if you give too little, you will feel embarrassed.

It is a rare opportunity to attend a palace banquet, and Zhu Xuntao does not want to go back with shame.

Before Xiao Jingzhan answered, Zhu Xuntao thought of a good idea:

"The silver mirrors in our shop are quite popular, why don't I give each of them a dressing mirror?"

This dressing mirror can be sold for a lot of money.

Fortunately, it is produced by ourselves, and if we talk about the cost, it is really nothing.

In this way, the value is delivered, and I will not feel any pain.

Xiao Jingzhan resisted the urge to kiss Zhu Xuntao, but in his heart he really loved Zhu Xuntao's cleverness:

"You are quite smart."

"If they can really receive the silver mirror you sent, I'm sure these palace maids will be very happy, and today's dance will not be in vain."

The important thing is that Zhu Xuntao herself did not bleed heavily, and she was able to send the gift in a way that made people satisfied. She

is indeed someone who can do business with the royal family.

The queen ordered the palace maids around her to keep the hot wine and hot drinks on the table of Yongjing Marquis's Mansion, and

not to let the women and children of Yongjing Marquis's Mansion eat raw and cold food.

After giving the order, the queen took a glass of hot wine herself, feeling very strange.

When Zhu Xuntao was talking to Xiao Jingzhan, she could not hear Zhu Xuntao's voice clearly.

On the contrary, whenever Zhu Xuntao "thought", she could hear her voice clearly,

without being affected by the noisy sounds of the palace banquet.

Zhu Xuntao's voice was as clear as if it was right next to her ear...

Even if Zhu Xuntao's thoughts just now did not contain anything unusual and shocking, just judging by the volume of her voice,

if the emperor could hear it, how could he remain calm? He would not even have a surprised look.

Therefore, it is very likely that the prince guessed correctly.

Although the emperor married her as his queen, he was not considered the son-in-law of the Yongjing Marquis's Mansion, so he could not hear Zhu Xuntao's thoughts?

Could it be that this was really the favor that God gave to the Yongjing Marquis's Mansion alone?

In order to verify what the empress was thinking, Zhu Xuntao's next words finally gave the empress the clearest answer:

With so many women like the emperor, how could he be considered the son-in-law of the Yongjing Marquis's Mansion.

Therefore, there are some opportunities that even the emperor, who is a dragon among men, has no chance to encounter.

Zhu Xuntao thought that in this winter, when the palace banquet was held, the dishes would inevitably become "frozen" dishes when they were served.

In fact, it was not the case. There were still a few hot dishes, and it was inevitable to cool them down.

In addition, the Yongjing Marquis's Mansion had its own special care from the Empress, so the temperature of the dishes could be a little hotter.

Fearing that Zhu Xuntao would not be able to look away if she set her eyes on the dancing girls,

Xiao Jingzhan picked up a small bowl, refused the palace servants' service, and personally served Zhu Xuntao some vegetables and soup:

"Don't look at it, she can't run away."

"You've been in the palace for a long time, and the weather is cold, so drink a bowl of soup to warm yourself up first."

"Ah? Oh."

Zhu Xuntao's eyes were still glued to the girls, and she only cared about looking at the beauties, not paying attention to the handsome Xiao Jingzhan beside her.

Therefore, Xiao Jingzhan passed the spoon to Zhu Xuntao's mouth, and Zhu Xuntao not only did not refuse,

but also drank a sip without resistance.

People who noticed this scene were so surprised that the chopsticks in their hands fell on the table.

The clinking of cups and plates almost attracted the attention of bystanders, but fortunately the sound of singing and dancing could cover it up a little.

But but but...

this, this, this...

How could Prince Xiao, a man, serve the prince's wife like this?

Where

is his masculinity? Isn't this a method used by women to please men when they are in a relationship?

People who sighed in their hearts wanted to grab Xiao Jingzhan's collar to remind him:

It's the other way around, it's the other way around.

Zhu Xuntao should be serving him!

Prince, is your brain frozen by the snow? Wake up!

Madam Sun's hand trembled, and she almost knocked over the soup bowl.

Prince Xiao was actually feeding Zhu Xuntao soup?

Is there any man in this world who is willing to feed a woman?

Even when she was ill, the old man felt it was unlucky to even look at her for a second, fearing that she would infect him with illness.

When has the old man ever treated himself as tenderly and lovingly as Prince Xiao treated Zhu Xuntao?

In this world, can any man be so good to a woman?

Madam Sun, who could not believe it and did not want to believe it, quickly put down the bowl of soup:

"Yan'er, don't look at it, don't believe it, it's all fake."

"Prince Xiao is a man of seven feet tall, how could he be so humble to a woman?"

"In front of so many people, the only explanation is that Prince Xiao is acting with Zhu Xuntao."

"I just don't know who can make Prince Xiao spend so much money and not care about his face to act out such a drama."

Yes, Prince Xiao is acting, it must be like this, and it can only be like this.

Maybe it was because of Madam Sun's presence to help her share some of her emotions, Zhu Yingyan seemed more stable than when she was at home.

Her hands did not shake, and the soup did not spill. She drank it spoonful by spoonful.

If Zhu Xuntao could drink the soup, couldn't she drink it without help from others?

Since everyone was drinking the same soup, and it even came from the same kitchen and the same cook,

why should she envy Zhu Xuntao? Aren't she and Zhu Xuntao the same?

"Mom, if you don't want to watch, don't watch."

"No matter who they are putting on a show for, we won't watch it anyway."

Madam Sun was startled, and then she understood what Zhu Yingyan meant:

"Yan'er, are you saying that Master Xiao did this on purpose for us to see?"

"Why?"

Isn't Master Xiao afraid of being laughed at for doing this?

"Why?"

Zhu Yingyan asked with a smile,

"Why else? Of course it's to make us feel bad and prove to us how good Zhu Xuntao's life is now in the Yongjing Marquis Mansion."

"I didn't expect that the people in the Yongjing Marquis Mansion are so powerful and not as good as we imagined."

"Glass is indeed a good thing. It can make a man like Prince Xiao bow down and kneel."

"This time, Zhu Xuntao is lucky."

"But my daughter always believes that a person's luck is limited."

"Zhu Xuntao's luck in this life has been used on glass."

"In the future, if something better than glass appears in the Dayong Dynasty, what will be her situation in the Yongjing Marquis Mansion?"

She will definitely wait until that day and then see what happens to Zhu Xuntao.

"Yes, Yan'er is right, mother was almost fooled."

Madam Sun agreed with Zhu Yingyan's words.

After figuring out all this, Madam Sun felt relieved, and the soup tasted better.

Zhu Dingxing, who was drinking and chatting with others, paid more attention to Madam Sun and her daughter.

He was worried that they were used to making trouble with Zhu Xuntao, and today they embarrassed him without considering the occasion.

Fortunately, the mother and daughter controlled themselves well. Even if they were not used to Zhu Xuntao,

they did not cause trouble for Zhu Xuntao and attract the attention of others.

As for Xiao Jingzhan's attentiveness to Zhu Xuntao, Zhu Dingxing could not bear to watch it.

Zhu Dingxing didn't care about a daughter who didn't care about her parents' family and didn't lean towards her parents' family. Zhu Dingxing didn't care about

the reward from the emperor because of Zhu Xuntao.

Zhu Dingxing put it aside without any psychological burden and didn't think about it.

Xiao Jingzhan didn't care about the strange looks from others. Even if the emperor glared at him,

Xiao Jingzhan still did his own thing: "How about this soup? Do you want to drink it?"

"It's delicious."

Zhu Xuntao finally took some time to think about it and shared it with Xiao Jingzhan,

"Is this the bowl of soup? Let me have it myself?"

It was not until this time that Zhu Xuntao reacted and drank the soup Xiao Jingzhan fed him!!!

Zhu Xuntao blushed because she was a little slow to react. She didn't dare to look at other people's reactions.

She could only pray in her heart that no one saw Xiao Jingzhan feeding her soup just now.

But Xiao Jingyu's joking words broke Zhu Xuntao's deaf ears:

"Sister-in-law, isn't the soup fed by my eldest brother personally especially pure and delicious?"

Zhu Xuntao: "..."

Stinky brother!

Zhu Xuntao took a deep breath and smiled at Yang Xiruo:

"Sister-in-law, there is something I don't know whether I should say or not."

"What is it?"

Yang Xiruo said,

"Just tell me what you want to say and I will listen."

With these words, Zhu Xuntao felt that she had agreed:

"I just met my second brother, and I felt that he is a very emotional and interesting person."

"As long as my second brother is willing, there is no woman he can't make laugh."

"So, sister-in-law, do you know how many women my second brother has made laugh over the years?"

Xiao Jingyu is a master at flirting with girls.

Thinking about this, Zhu Xuntao was afraid that Xiao Jingyu's death was not tragic enough, so she added another knife:

"There was a period of time when my eldest sister especially liked to go to the Marquis' Mansion with me to see my grandmother, and I always met my second brother."

"I remember that time, my second brother and my eldest sister got along very well."

"Every time after talking with my second brother, my eldest sister would be in a good mood for the whole day, and my life would be much better."

Zhu Yingyan was coaxed by Xiao Jingyu, so naturally she would not cause trouble for her.

So, at that time, Zhu Yingyan liked to go, and she was particularly willing to let Zhu Xuntao go.

Until Zhu Yingyan set her sights on Xiao Miluo, all the superficial peace was broken again.

"Back then I thought... I was troubled by this for a while, and finally decided to talk it over with my elder sister..."

Zhu Xuntao was vague, but it left people with endless reverie.

From Zhu Xuntao's words, Yang Xiruo couldn't help but think of her acquaintance, friendship and companionship with Xiao Jingyu.

In fact, Yang Xiruo also found it strange

that Xiao Jingyu, who was born in the Yongjing Marquis Mansion, spoke in such a way that pleased her

. Was he so special only to her and was he self-taught, or was it something else?

It was also because she was so happy to be with Xiao Jingyu and she got married quickly, so Yang Xiruo threw this problem behind her.

After being reminded by Zhu Xuntao today, Yang Xiruo understood.

When it comes to pleasing little girls, Xiao Jingyu is self-taught.

But!

Rich experience, it is true!

Xiao Jingyu: "..."

He just made a joke to his sister-in-law, but she wanted to kill him!

"My wife, don't listen to my sister-in-law's slander, I am innocent."

"Others don't understand my feelings for you, how can you not know..."

"Shut up!"

Yang Xiruo stopped Xiao Jingyu.

"If you have anything to say, wait until we get back."

There were so many people at the palace banquet, and her family members were all there, so she couldn't afford to lose face.
