"Aheng."
"Yun Zhao. Sister Yu, come and let me hold you." Chen Heng held her already clever niece in her arms: "Sister Yu is getting cuter and cuter. I really like you."
"She is very naughty." Seeing her daughter smiling foolishly, Mrs. Peng said with a smile.
Chen Heng glanced at her belly, which had not yet bulged: "Your face is glowing, it seems that the baby didn't bother you."
As he was speaking, Meng Xuanlang, who had gotten off the carriage, said, "Wu Jin arrived just in time. I thought he wouldn't make it."
When everyone looked, they saw the Wu family's carriage stopped beside them. Mr. Wu and his wife got out of the carriage, and Wu Jin also helped Min Yuqing get out of another carriage.
"Xuanlang, Ajian." Wu Jin has been running outside for the past few days. He is still fat and tender, and his skin is so white and tender that it can be squeezed out of water. Min Yuqing follows him gently and quietly.
More and more people came. Chen Heng asked Achan to bring a few people in, and she and Xie Jian continued to greet the guests.
When Prince Ning and Prince Qing arrived, it was already night.
When I saw Liu Zhiyue again, she had really changed. There was no trace of her past in her every move. She had become a real lady from a noble family, dignified and virtuous, but there was a cold indifference in her eyes when she looked at people. If she was from Yongjia County, most people would have to bow to her when they saw her.
Liu Zhiyue glanced at Xie Jian coldly. How could such a person climb so high?
Xie Jian was greeting Prince Ning and Prince Qing. Since he had been looked down upon since childhood, he was more alert to the gazes of others than ordinary people and could naturally feel the unfriendly looks.
"Congratulations." Liu Xinyue congratulated.
"Thank you." Seeing that there were not many guests, Chen Heng personally took them to the table.
At the banquet, men and women stood separately, while the female members of the family were all in the side hall on the left, clinking cups and toasting each other, making the scene quite lively.
"Mr. Yongjia, you are the most fortunate among us women." A woman who was about sixty years old like Liu Zhiyue came over to toast.
Liu Zhiyue glanced at these people, all of whom were women she had only met briefly in her youth. She simply responded perfunctorily, "I am from Yuezhou, and I often miss the time I spent playing with you all as a girl. If you ever come to Yuezhou for a trip, you must visit the Si family."
At another table, a woman nudged Peng Yunzhao's arm and said, "Mrs. Peng, we all want to establish a relationship with Yongjia County. Why don't we go there too?"
"I won't go." Peng Yunzhao declined politely. She didn't like Liu Zhiyue, and she thought that because of her third sister, she would not be nice to her.
The woman then asked Min Yuqing, who was beside Peng, "Madam Min, should we go show our faces?"
"With so many people showing up in front of Yongjia County, I won't join in the fun." Min Yuqing smiled faintly, picked up some dishes and put them in Sister Yu's bowl to feed her.
Chen Heng would also clink glasses with the ladies from time to time, and say thank you to those who came to congratulate her.
Liu Xinyue was introducing some new faces to Liu Zhiyue. When her eyes fell on Mrs. Peng, she said, "The one next to Mrs. Peng is Wu Jin's wife, Min Yuqing."
"Min? Is there any noble family with the surname Min?"
"Not a noble family, just a commoner."
"Commoner? Although the Wu family is a merchant family, their wine is royal wine. How could he marry a commoner girl?" Liu Zhiyue couldn't help but look at Min Yuqing twice. She was so ordinary. When she saw Peng next to her, she thought of the humiliation that the Peng girl brought to her, and disgust flashed in her eyes.
Chen Heng saw everything and was actually somewhat impressed by Min's composure. From beginning to end, she didn't even glance in this direction, as if it had nothing to do with her.
