Chapter 182 Friends Gathering in the Imperial City
Yian is a good and quiet child. He just makes noises when eating, drinking, defecating or urinating, and never cries loudly.
The most likable.
"Eat yours and give Yi'an to me." The nanny had been jealous for a long time because she had never found a chance to hug Yi'an. Now she took out the pastries just to hug Yi'an.
Wen Li reluctantly handed Yi An to the nanny's arms, and whispered softly, "Slow down, don't wake Yi An up."
Gen'er and the others had been having a lot of fun, and they could be seen everywhere in the yard.
They play in the mud and water, having a lot of fun.
In a blink of an eye, the New Year is approaching and Wen Li starts to get busy again.
The emperor is more powerful.
The two of them are always busy at this time.
Weng'er and Chang'er also returned home.
Accompanying my mother and sister every day.
During this New Year period, good news came from Shanning, that is, Shanning was pregnant.
She was happier than anyone else.
Because she was injured when giving birth to her first child, it took her two years to get pregnant.
This time, Jiang Ce didn't dare to delay at all and went straight to the palace to ask for the imperial physician, for fear that Shan Ning might be feeling unwell.
Upon hearing the good news, everyone was happy for Shanning.
Now, Xia Yutong has three children, and Xiaoxiao has two.
She finally got pregnant again, and she felt a lot more relieved.
Last year, because Rongrong got married, Xiaoxuan returned to Nancheng, so Xia Yutong couldn't go back to her parents' home during the Chinese New Year.
You can only stay in the mansion or go to the palace to attend a banquet.
The days passed by uneventfully.
In the blink of an eye, ten years have passed.
During the Yan Dynasty, the country enjoyed good weather and the people lived in peace. As the people had more food like sweet potatoes and corn, their living standards improved.
In the past, I had two meals a day, which were porridge and coarse rice.
Now, you can eat rice and noodles whenever you want.
You won't starve.
Perhaps the biggest change in the imperial city is that the emperor is in semi-retirement.
The prince took over the government.
Just waiting for a suitable opportunity for the emperor to abdicate and the prince to ascend the throne.
In ten years, everyone has changed.
Rongrong is also a mother, and Xiaoxuan has two naughty sons.
Even Xiaoyu is old enough to get married.
However, he is different from his older brother. He was not influenced by his older sister. He grew up with his parents and received parental education.
As soon as he reached a certain age, his family would take him in for a surrogate mother.
Over the years, the Xia Mansion is still the same Xia Mansion as before, and has not changed because the eldest daughter of the Xia family is the Crown Princess.
This is also the result of Xia Yutong's intentional control.
Spring of the fortieth year of Dayan.
Spring is a good time.
The beginning of everything.
Xiaoxuan and Luo Xiaoxiao had originally not planned to return to the imperial city after they got married.
But five years ago, after Grandma Luo passed away, the two returned to the imperial city.
Xiaoxuan is still doing their business with Jiang Ce.
Wei Nan is now completely separated from them. He is an official, and they are businessmen.
There is no saying that merchants in Dayan are the lowest class.
There is still a lot of money to be made in business.
Their relationship did not end after the business was divided. Instead, the relationship between the four of them became even better.
Shen Shiyou even wanted to become Jiang Ce's in-laws and asked his son to kiss Jiang Ce's daughter.
Because of this, he was often beaten up by Jiang Ce.
Shen Shiyou did not come to the Imperial City. He has always lived in the South City. On the contrary, because of Xiaoxuan and Jiang Ce's foundation in the Imperial City, his status in the South City has improved rapidly.
The Shen family is no longer the same Shen family as before.
Among the trading companies, the Shen family is now considered to be among the top three in South City.
Today is a busy day.
An Xiaoxiao and Ouyang Hao returned to the imperial city the day before and finally settled down. Now, several friends have started to make plans to go out and get together.
The first person to arrive at the agreed place was An Xiaoxiao. She had been waiting for this day for a long time.
Today I finally got to spend some quality time with Shan Ning and Yu Tong.
In the past ten years, they didn't have a chance to be together as a group of three.
After Ouyang Hao sent Xiaoxiao over, he left immediately.
His own business gradually expanded to the imperial city and he was very busy.
Xia Yutong was the second one to arrive. As soon as she arrived, she saw Xiaoxiao looking around there, and she was so happy.
"Xiaoxiao."
This is the third floor of Juxian Building, and there are no outsiders here.
As soon as she heard the voice, An Xiaoxiao ran out of the box: "Yutong." and pounced directly on Xia Yutong.
"I miss you guys so much." An Xiaoxiao choked up a little.
"If you want us to stay in the imperial city more often, please do so. Now that the children are grown up, we have time to get together." She only has these two good friends since she came to this world, so of course she wants them to be together more often.
After hugging for a while, the two let go, looked at each other, and laughed: "You are still the same."
The sunlight seems to have always been kind to Yutong. In ten years, she hasn't changed at all and is still as beautiful as ever.
If God really did something to her, I'm afraid it was just to add a bit of maturity to her.
An Xiaoxiao, who is now married, knows where that charm comes from.
It's because of pampering.
"You haven't changed either." Xia Yutong glared at her unhappily.
The two of them walked into the box, and now they could have a good conversation.
"Tell me, how come you haven't aged at all after so many years?" An Xiaoxiao's mouth is a bit similar to Ouyang Hao's, and she is naughty.
Xia Yutong ignored her and stared at her carefully, "It seems that I'm not the only one who hasn't changed." The mockery in her tone was too obvious.
"I can't help it. I have a good friend who often gives me beauty products. I want to change, but unfortunately, she loves me too much and won't let me."
After saying that, she burst into laughter.
I have to say, women can be so naughty sometimes.
"Okay, looks like I can save some money in the future." Xia Yutong patted her chest and said with relief.
An Xiaoxiao was unhappy: "How dare you." Humph, this man, how could he change his face so quickly: "I'm counting on the little things you send me. It's not hard to see how many women will come to me on their own initiative."
She gets angry when she talks about this.
Do you really take her temper for granted?
"Oh, there's a story. Tell me." Xia Yutong filled her tea cup with a gossipy look on her face.
Having such a friend really made her feel tired. An Xiaoxiao was really angry. After organizing her words, she started complaining to Xia Yutong.
"You don't know how shameless that woman is." A sour bubble came out of his mouth.
"She actually dared to come to my house with such a big belly. She must have thought that I wanted to save face in the An family. She dared to frame me for anything."
The more she talked, the angrier she became.
Xia Yutong became anxious after hearing this, "Just tell me the truth, don't play dumb here." She was anxious.
It turned out that when he was in Nancheng, Ouyang Hao gradually showed his talents with the help of An's father.
Some people started to stare at him.
When the surname Ouyang is added, some women start to have dreams.
It’s not that there haven’t been women who came to his door, but Ouyang Hao wouldn’t even look at them.
As this continued, some people began to think of solutions.
So, a shameless woman in a brothel came up with a shady trick.
Ouyang Hao almost couldn't clear himself of the blame.
Once, Ouyang Hao was taken to a brothel by a friend. It was not a place he had not been to before. He often went there when he was in the imperial city.
Besides, he needed help from the other person, so since the other person had asked, he couldn't delay.
So he followed her to the brothel.
Ouyang Hao was already quite famous in South City.
Many young ladies stared at him, just wanting to catch his eye.
Here comes the opportunity.
There was a top prostitute in the brothel. She had only been in South City for a few years, but she had heard a lot about Ouyang Hao's reputation.
Most of them praised him.
He has everything, including ability and looks, so the top star took notice.
Here comes the opportunity.
Ouyang Hao and his good friend went to the top brothel and ordered the top prostitute to accompany them for drinking.
They just come here to have fun, not to do anything real here.
After a while, he got a little drunk.
Plus, the top performer was a capable guy and persuaded people to drink a lot.
I added some ingredients to the incense burner, and then something went wrong.
It turned out that she had planned everything and asked her maid to be prepared to put her and Ouyang Hao together when the time came.
Unexpectedly.
There was a gangster in Ouyang Hao's group. As soon as he entered the door, he set his eyes on the top star. No matter what she said or did, he liked it.
He also noticed all the top star's little moves.
He also cooperated with her to get himself and several of her friends drunk.
After all this, he has a chance.
He originally didn't want to do anything to the top card. It was true that he was a playboy, but he loved women.
If this hadn't happened, I think he would be willing to pay money to redeem this top card.
The top star thought his plan was flawless, but he had no idea that he had already become a lamb in the eyes of others.
Ouyang Hao has martial arts skills, and his friend revealed his thoughts intentionally.
If you want to be the top star, all you need is money.
So he gave his friend the opportunity and pretended to be drunk.
Not only him, but several others were also drunk, they were really drunk.
With the addition of spices in the house, everyone became even more drunk.
After receiving a signal from his friend, Ouyang Hao took the others away.
When the maid outside saw Ouyang Hao coming out, she wanted to go into the house to take a look.
But he was driven out by Ouyang Hao's friends.
She called her mother, and her mother asked her what had happened, and found out that she had gotten a lot of money.
Of course she was happy to oblige.
So, after an accident.
The top performer was not redeemed by Ouyang Hao's friend in the end, but after getting her, he no longer wanted to stay with her.
Of course, there is a reason for this.
This top star is not a virgin.
As for this person, Ouyang Hao’s friend is not a fool, so of course he would spend money to buy happiness.
After they left, Ouyang Hao forgot about it.
If the woman hadn't come to him later, he wouldn't have remembered it.
The top performer had inquired and found out that the man was not in South City at the time, so she dared to come to him with a big belly.
An Xiaoxiao didn't know the truth at first and almost died of anger.
If her children hadn't held her back, she would have nearly torn her own man apart.
Of course, it was quite a big deal.
When Mr. An found out, he came over immediately to ask and called Ouyang Hao back.
Ouyang Hao was so wronged.
After slowly remembering what happened, he suddenly told the truth.
He also said that the brothel's mother could testify, as could the maidservants around her.
If she still doesn't believe it, he can also invite his friends back.
In the end, the matter had nothing to do with Ouyang Hao, but for An Xiaoxiao, it was very disgusting.
After that, Ouyang Hao coaxed her for a long time before they reconciled. Otherwise, she would have lived in her parents' home forever.
After listening to the whole story, she felt that being a prince was sometimes quite good.
Seeing her best friend's smirking face, An Xiaoxiao was furious: "I'll let you laugh at me." She immediately pounced on her and tickled her.
When Shan Ning arrived, she heard laughter in the box.
Pushing the door open, he asked, "What are you doing? I heard your laughter downstairs."
When she saw the two women half leaning on the chairs, a hint of ambiguous smile appeared in Shan Ning's eyes.
She quickly closed the door, she couldn't let outsiders see such springtime scene.
None of the people who came with me today came up, they were all waiting at the stairs.
Shan Ning came and the two stopped fighting.
Xia Yutong opened her mouth to tell her the story she had heard, but unfortunately, she was a step too slow and was directly choked by An Xiaoxiao.
"Shut up, don't talk, and don't laugh." An Xiaoxiao threatened Yu Tong angrily.
Shan Ning was a little confused, "What are you doing? Why are you fighting?" She hurried forward to separate the two.
But An Xiaoxiao refused to let go and stared at Xia Yutong, demanding an answer from her.
For the sake of her own freedom, Xia Yutong finally agreed to her in a humiliating manner.
Only after getting her assurance did she let go.
She knew it was a bit embarrassing, so she let it go.
Shan Ning was ultimately unable to learn the story, but it did not affect the relationship between the three of them.
With Shan Ning joining in, the three of them didn’t return until they were drunk.
The people serving outside were all very nervous.
In the end, I had to go find my own master.
When the three grown men arrived, their drunken chatter could be heard from inside the house.
"Tell me quickly, has your man been keeping you company every night these past few years?"
"Haha, come on, tell me, what tricks do you play?"
…
These dirty words are really embarrassing to others.
The three people outside the room all used coughing to cover up their embarrassment.
But before they could enter, they heard the boasting voice of their daughter-in-law from the room.
Now the three of them were no longer calm.
He immediately opened the door and covered his wife's mouth.
An Xiaoxiao is very brave.
Seeing Ouyang Hao coming, she immediately pulled her hand away and said, "If you don't believe me, I'll show you." After that, she pulled down Ouyang Hao's head.
Kiss her immediately.
Shan Ning and Xia Yutong were also paralyzed by alcohol. Seeing him kissing a man, they couldn't fall behind.
Wen Li and Jiang Ce saw what the two were thinking and immediately used their strength to take them away.
The mouth was also covered.
Ask the people serving outside to stay away, because who knows if something unspeakable might happen next.
Wen Li and Jiang Ce parted ways at the restaurant entrance.
If we want to meet again, we have to wait until these three people sober up.
On the way back, Shan Ning fell asleep in Jiang Ce's arms. Xia Yutong was in a similar situation. She was not much better than Shan Ning. Because it was a gathering of friends, she did not cheat.
After waking up, the next morning, Wen Li had the rare opportunity to wait for her to wake up in bed.
After the commotion last night, she was out of spirits, so he had to make up for it today.
She had said so much yesterday, how could he let her down?
"Awake." Wen Li supported his head with his hands and stared at the person who woke up on the bed.
Xia Yutong was shocked. Her friend hadn't seen him when he woke up in the morning. "Why didn't you go to the palace today?"
After the shock, she felt her mouth was dry. "Water."
I drank too much yesterday.
Wen Li stood up, went to the table, poured her a glass of warm water, and helped her drink it.
After putting down the cup, he went back to the bed: "Do you remember what happened yesterday?" he asked.
