Jiang Yueyang was just about to ask who had the melon when Duke Su Guo came upon hearing the news, and then the man who had been so arrogant towards the housekeeper became timid.
Duke Su looked at the family with a sullen face, "I heard that you are not satisfied with the positions I arranged for you?"
"No." The leading woman immediately denied, "They are just children who don't know better, don't blame me, brother-in-law."
Duke Su snorted coldly, "If you dare to act rashly at the banquet today, don't blame me for being rude to you!"
The woman smiled and said that she would definitely discipline them, but there was a hint of viciousness in her eyes.
Duke Su Guo did not want to waste words with him, so he looked away and happened to see Jiang Yueyang, a spectator.
Jiang Yueyang met his gaze, smiled and raised her hand towards him as a greeting.
Duke Su walked towards her and sat down next to her.
He glanced at the venue and didn't see Minister Jiang and his wife. "Aren't your parents here yet?"
"Duke Su, I'm really sorry. My mother was not feeling well before she left, and my father was worried about her so he stayed at home with her, so they can't come today."
"It's okay, it's okay. Your health is important."
"Thank you, Duke Su, for your understanding."
Over there, the family of Duke Su's sister-in-law saw that Duke Su cared so much about a little girl like Jiang Yueyang, and they couldn't help but become curious about Jiang Yueyang's identity.
"Mom, who is that girl? She's so pretty."
The woman glared at him sideways, "Put away your inappropriate thoughts! A girl who can sit in that position is of extraordinary status!"
The man didn't care, thinking, wouldn't it be better if they had a special status? If...they wouldn't have to look at their uncle's face anymore.
At this time, there was a loud noise coming from behind.
Jiang Yueyang and Duke Su looked over when they heard the voice, and then saw the Crown Prince, the eldest princess, the third prince and the fifth prince walking in.
The officials and their wives who had already taken their seats hurriedly stood up and tried to salute them, but the crown prince raised his hand to stop them, "No need to be polite, everyone."
Duke Suguo walked up to the four people and personally led them to their seats.
The Crown Prince sat in the first seat in the first row for male guests, followed by the Third Prince and the Fifth Prince.
The eldest princess was arranged to sit in the first row of female guests, and Jiang Yueyang was next to her.
According to the direction Duke Su was walking, he originally intended to let the prince sit on the upper seat, but it seemed that the prince refused.
The third prince raised his eyebrows at Jiang Yueyang who was standing opposite him, and Jiang Yueyang rolled his eyes and looked away.
After a while, high-ranking officials including the Duke of England and Lord Wei also arrived one after another.
When the gong sounds, the auspicious time has arrived.
Duke Su stood on the stage and spoke to everyone, "Today is my little girl's family reunion banquet. Thank you all for coming to the banquet. Here, I would like to offer a toast to everyone."
After he finished speaking, Duke Su picked up a glass of wine, and everyone present raised their glasses and drank it all.
Duke Suguo said again: "Now let me come out and briefly introduce myself to you all."
After a while, Qiao Xi came out with Qiao Yuanyuan, who was dressed in gorgeous clothes.
Two people who look exactly the same standing on the stage at the same time make it difficult to tell them apart.
Qiao Xi said softly to Qiao Yuanyuan: "Yuanyuan, say hello to everyone, just like your sister taught you before."
Qiao Yuanyuan nodded nervously, then stepped forward, knelt and saluted, saying: "Yuanyuan greets everyone here. I hope everyone can have fun and enjoy their meal today."
Everyone sat down and returned the greeting, "Miss Qiao Er."
The call of "Second Miss Qiao" completely confirmed Qiao Yuanyuan's identity.
Afterwards, the wife of Duke Suguo brought the Qiaoxi sisters down to meet the other ladies and young ladies, while Duke Suguo brought his son to entertain the male guests.
The eldest princess and Jiang Yueyang were not good at socializing, and they simply said a few words to the wife of Duke Su Guo and ended the conversation.
Jiang Yueyang was eating and watching the lively scene around her with relish, when she suddenly felt an uncomfortable gaze falling on her.
Turning around, she saw that it was the man from Duke Su's sister-in-law's family. She frowned, feeling disgusted.
The eldest princess standing by noticed Jiang Yueyang's strangeness, followed her gaze, and immediately understood a little.
The princess said calmly, "Fuling, go over and warn them. How dare anyone have such thoughts that they shouldn't have."
"promise!"
Jiang Yueyang smiled and said, "Thank you, Princess."
The princess hummed modestly, "Jiang Yueyang, you need to recognize your own identity."
"Um?"
"Besides being Lord Xiao Jiang, you are also Princess Yongle, who was personally conferred by our father!" The eldest princess' tone was somewhat disappointed, "It's as if you are not even a princess at all."
Jiang Yueyang smiled awkwardly. She thought the princess was angry because she asked her to identify herself.
"The princess has taught me a lesson. I will definitely recognize my own identity from now on!"
Over there, the family of Duke Su's sister-in-law was severely beaten by the eldest princess's maid.
When Duke Su Guo saw this, he sent someone to inquire about it. After learning the whole story, he was so angry that his face turned blue.
"When the party is over, I'll punish them!"
After filling his stomach, Jiang Yueyang felt bored, so he asked about the melon that the system had mentioned before.
[Little melon, you said there was a melon here before, who has the melon? ]
After this was said, the officials present accepted it well and continued to talk with the people around them.
And those distant visitors who were unaware of what was being said did not take the words seriously, thinking that someone was just talking about fruits and vegetables.
The system said: [There are many melons. Who should the host listen to? ]
【Do you have any suggestions? 】
[I mainly recommend three melons. The first is the wretched man who just coveted the host, the second is the youngest son of the Duke of England, and the third is Mr. Ke, the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice. ]
Jiang Yueyang thought for a moment and asked, "Little melon, whose melon do you want to eat the most?"
[Of course it's a wretched man! ]
[Okay! Then we will eat the melon of the Duke of England’s youngest son! ]
Most of the people present laughed, hahahaha...Mr. Xiao Jiang is so naughty!
The rest of the small group of people looked confused. Doesn’t “eating melons” mean eating fruits?
And... who's talking?
The Duke of England looked at his youngest son with sympathy, "Don't be afraid, it will be over soon."
Facing the gazes of the people around him, Young Master Tang lowered his eyes uneasily.
The system, which had quickly sorted out the melons of the obscene man, crashed for a long time before it could regain its voice.
[…Host, you are a real dog! ]
Jiang Yueyang curled the corners of her lips and said, "Hurry up."
The system asked: [Host, do you still remember the melon of His Royal Highness Prince Huan? ]
【Hmm, what's wrong? 】
Hearing this, the four royal family members present raised their eyelids slightly and looked at Jiang Yueyang.
System: [If His Royal Highness Prince Huan is a top-notch love-brain, then Young Master Tang is a rare dog-licker in the world. ]
Jiang Yueyang raised her eyebrows slightly, [What do you mean? ]
