Chapter 332 People from the Mother Clan
The banquet at the palace was in full swing. Su Ying did not leave the house until she heard a noisy sound of footsteps outside the door.
As soon as she walked out, Jiang Yang, who was a little drunk, was pushed into the bridal chamber by the crowd.
Su Ying did not stay to join in the fun, but turned around and went back to her own yard.
There weren't many people in the palace to begin with. After the butler eliminated the spies sent by the palace, the people left in the palace were basically their own people.
The banquet was almost over and Zhang Shuming was so busy that he couldn't even put his heels on the ground. After he finally saw all the guests off, he was so tired that he sat down on a small stool outside the kitchen.
Zhang Shuming sat for a while and then saw He Shouyi walking towards him from the back door of the kitchen.
Today's wedding banquet features dishes from the mansion itself, prepared by He Shouyi, who has been busy since yesterday.
"Chef He, we are done with our work. Sit down and take a rest."
Zhang Shuming and He Shouyi got along quite well during this period. When he had nothing to do, Zhang Shuming would come to the big kitchen and sit down. He Shouyi would make some fresh snacks for him to try from time to time.
When He Shouyi heard Zhang Shuming's shout, he was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to look at him numbly.
Seeing He Shouyi coming, Zhang Shuming waved at him.
He Shouyi walked over and sat down next to him. "Is Chief Steward Zhang done with your work? How did you find time to come over?"
Zhang Shuming took out a bag of melon seeds from his pocket and grabbed some and asked him if he wanted to eat some. He Shouyi shook his head in surprise. Seeing that he refused, Zhang Shuming simply took it himself and started eating it comfortably.
"Where did Chef He go just now?"
He Shouyi came back to his senses and said, "Let's go to the backyard and ask them to handle some trivial matters."
Zhang Shuming just asked casually, "Today's guests all said that the dishes at the banquet were delicious. Chef He's cooking skills are really extraordinary. Your cooking skills are quite similar to a chef I knew before. At first I thought it was a coincidence, but the more I eat, the more I feel like you two are the same person."
He Shouyi's eyebrows jumped, "Who?"
"He was the former chef in the palace. However, he was expelled from the palace because he committed a crime. I haven't seen him since then." Zhang Shuming said, turning his head to look at He Shouyi and found that He Shouyi's face had changed. "What's with that expression on your face? Do you know this person too?"
"I don't know him." He Shouyi shook his head without thinking.
Zhang Shuming laughed, "You old man, I haven't even mentioned my name yet, and you said you don't know me. Do you know who I'm talking about?"
He Shouyi's expression became even uglier. He stood up and said, "There are still things to be done in the kitchen. I will do my work first. The housekeeper can take a rest and go back to work."
Zhang Shuming looked at his back as he left and shook his head. He always felt that he looked a little lost today.
Lin Zhuyu is getting married today. Although there is a small variable, Lin Jin, in the middle, Su Ying is still in a very happy mood overall.
Even when she returned to the house, she was still humming an unknown tune.
Xiao Jin walked into the room drunk, and looked at Su Ying who was sitting cross-legged on the couch. No matter how he looked at her, he felt it was not enough.
Su Ying looked up at him and saw that his face was slightly red and his deep black eyes were watery. He looked so attractive.
The alluring person came to her door directly, sat down on the couch next to her, then held her face and looked at her carefully, then smiled with satisfaction, "She's not too outstanding in appearance, and her temper is very bad, but I just like her."
Su Ying slapped his hand away, "This is all you have left."
"Do you like it?"
"like."
Xiao Jin laughed heartily with satisfaction.
Before the laughter died down, he fell asleep on top of her.
"What kind of alcohol tolerance is this? That's not enough."
Bai Shuang walked into the room and just happened to hear these words. "Princess, don't you know that the prince and the guests drank several jars of wine? If the butler hadn't been afraid that everyone would get drunk and didn't dare to serve more wine, the prince would probably have drunk more."
Su Ying didn't expect Xiao Jin to be so happy. Well, these were the people who had been through life and death with him, and he could only relax a little in front of these people.
Su Ying also drank some wine and simply took a nap with Xiao Jin.
While half asleep, Su Ying felt that there was another person on her body. She half opened her eyes, and after confirming the other person's identity, she raised her hands and hugged his neck.
Su Ying felt that this was a pleasant and effortless matter, so she just let him do it. After all, she was happy about it.
When I opened my eyes again, it was dark outside.
Su Ying heard footsteps coming from outside the door, and then saw Xiao Jin turned over, sat up, put on his clothes, and walked out.
Su Ying had slept for the whole afternoon and was no longer sleepy, so she simply got up.
Just as she finished packing, Xiao Jin came back with a bad look on his face.
"how?"
"Come with me out of the house and see someone." Xiao Jin said.
Su Ying was a little confused, "Who?"
"My mother's clan."
Su Ying was a little surprised. Wasn't the entire Wei family executed back then? How come there were still some survivors?
But Xiao Jin couldn't be lying to her, so after changing her clothes, she followed him out of the palace.
"The Wei family?" Su Ying asked proactively in the carriage.
Xiao Jin's voice sounded a little hoarse in the dim carriage. "Well, when the Wei family was in trouble, my aunt was away. After hearing the news, she was so scared that she gave birth to a baby boy prematurely."
In order to ensure the safety of the child, the Wei family asked a loyal servant to take the child away from the capital, but announced to the public that the child was stillborn.
After the entire Wei family was executed, the loyal servant used the spies that remained from the Wei family to pass a message to Xiao Jin's biological mother, asking her to find a way to settle the only child of the Wei family.
"My mother was worried about the child being too far away, so she found a wealthy family in Beijing to raise him. She told me about this before she got into trouble."
But Wei Siyuan still knew his own life experience. When Xiao Jin went to the military camp, he would follow him and vowed to avenge his family.
Wei Siyuan had made many military achievements in the military camp, but he and Xiao Jin had tacitly distributed the military achievements to others. Now was not the time for him to appear in public.
After Xiao Jin was exiled, Wei Siyuan took over the power that Xiao Jin had previously cultivated in the capital and had been waiting for Xiao Jin to return.
"Then why did you take me to see him so late at night?"
Xiao Jin's brows furrowed, "Something has happened to him. You'll know when you go to see him later."
The house where Wei Siyuan lives is very hidden and inconspicuous among the other houses.
The carriage drove directly into the house through the back door.
When Xiao Jin and Su Ying got off the car, they only saw a servant waiting with a lantern.
The servant stepped forward and saluted Xiao Jin, then led them to the yard in front.
