Chapter 40 Deal with You
Jiang Zhaoyue couldn't guess, so he said, "I'll be there in a moment."
"Yes." Xiang Qiao responded.
Jiang Zhaoyue entered the compartment carrying tea.
The doctor in the Lu Mansion bandaged Pei Jingzhou's wound.
As soon as Pei Jingzhou saw Jiang Zhaoyue coming in, he quickly put on his undershirt.
Unable to see the undulating muscles, a hint of disappointment flashed in Jiang Zhaoyue's eyes.
Pei Jingzhou noticed it keenly and felt helpless.
"Second Master, have some water." Jiang Zhaoyue placed the tea bowl next to him and said, "Yinping is coming. I'll go out and take a look."
After Pei Jingzhou had an unpleasant quarrel with Wang, he did not go to Songqingtang to pay his respects on the pretext of recuperating from his injuries. His father came in person to check on his injuries and act as a peacemaker.
He had no intention of continuing the stalemate with his mother and promised to pay his respects to her in a few days.
The mother sent someone over at this time, so it must be something unrelated to him, so he said, "Mother may have something to talk to you about."
"Looking for me? What do you want from me?" Jiang Zhaoyue was surprised.
"I don't know either. Go and have a look."
Jiang Zhaoyue walked out of the study with doubts and came to the main room.
Yin Ping bowed and said, "Meet the Second Madam."
"You're welcome." Jiang Zhaoyue asked, "Does mother have any instructions?"
Yin Ping stood up and said, "Second Madam, Madam said that since it is spring now and the weather is fine, the Duke's Mansion is planning to hold a simple spring banquet. Some young men and women from the capital will be attending, and Madam hopes that Second Madam will also make some preparations."
People in ancient times had little entertainment, and everyone from the emperor to the common people liked various kinds of banquets, such as the Spring Festival Banquet, the New Year's Eve Banquet, the Imperial Examination Banquet, the Chrysanthemum Viewing Banquet, etc.
Some were just for fun, some were to discuss state affairs, and some were for blind dates... Jiang Zhaoyue asked, "Mother, is this for the marriages of the Third Master, the Fourth Master, and the Third Miss?"
"Yes." Yinping replied.
Jiang Zhaoyue asked in confusion: "Then what can I do?"
Yin Ping said, "Madam said that Second Madam can first help with the selection, second, help with the banquet, and third, help with the recognition of people."
really.
As the second daughter-in-law of the Duke of Zhenguo, I really need to do these things.
Jiang Zhaoyue asked, "When will the Spring Festival Banquet be held?"
"Three days later."
"Okay, I understand. I will prepare it and let mother rest assured."
"Yes, then I'll take my leave."
Jiang Zhaoyue ordered Xiangqiao to give Yinping some reward money.
Yinping bowed and turned to leave.
Pei Jingzhou and Lu Fuyi came out of the study.
The doctor of the Lu Mansion bowed to Jiang Zhaoyue and said, "Second Madam, I'm leaving now."
"Doctor Lu, take care."
Watching Doctor Lu leave Linhua Hospital, Pei Jingzhou asked, "What's the matter, mother?"
"You guessed right. Mother is not looking for you, but for me." Jiang Zhaoyue said.
"What's up?"
"There will be a spring banquet in the mansion in three days. Many young men and women from the capital will come, and I must attend."
Pei Jingzhou nodded: "My third brother and third sister are both at the age of marriage, so we really need to look for someone."
"But..." Jiang Zhaoyue paused.
"But what?"
"I always feel that mother..." It's not nice to speak ill of someone's own mother to her face, but Jiang Zhaoyue feels that since she and he are husband and wife, some things should be made clear, so she said, "Third sister has been asking me to attend banquets these past few days, and now mother is specially holding a spring banquet. Are they torturing me?"
"No." Pei Jingzhou didn't mind Jiang Zhaoyue's confession and said, "They are mainly concerned about the marriage of the young man and the young lady in the mansion. They may torture you in the meantime."
Jiang Zhaoyue was about to draw out her hundred-meter-long sword and chop at Pei Jingzhou, but when she heard his last words, she immediately retracted it: "How will they torture me?"
"I don't know."
Jiang Zhaoyue frowned: "Then what should I do?"
"Don't make any mistakes in your words or actions at the banquet, so that they can't find fault with you."
Jiang Zhaoyue asked, "What if they find fault with everything?"
"I will protect you." Pei Jingzhou was much taller than Jiang Zhaoyue. He lowered his head slightly, looked at her and asked, "Are you waiting for this?"
"Yes, Second Master really understands me!" Jiang Zhaoyue immediately took his arm: "Now that Second Master said that, I feel relieved."
From the day they got married, Pei Jingzhou discovered that Jiang Zhaoyue liked to touch him, hug him and hold him.
He used to always feel angry, disgusted and uncomfortable, but now he feels like he is getting more and more used to it.
At this moment, Jiang Zhaoyue said, "It feels better when you're not wearing any clothes."
His face suddenly darkened: "Jiang Zhaoyue."
"Hmm?" Jiang Zhaoyue raised his eyes.
"You...you...you never have time to be serious." Pei Jingzhou pulled back his arm and turned to walk towards the study.
"Second Master, are you angry again?" Jiang Zhaoyue asked.
"Learn your etiquette." Pei Jingzhou replied.
In other words, you're not angry?
Then why act so angry?
Are you being cute?
It's kind of cute indeed.
Jiang Zhaoyue smiled, turned around and went to find Nanny Sun to ask her about the regulations and etiquette of the banquet at the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.
Nanny Sun said, "Second Madam, there is a lot of knowledge involved here."
"you say."
Nanny Sun told her everything in detail. She thought Second Mistress would be impatient and disgusted, but she didn't expect Second Mistress to write down every item and really remember them.
She couldn't help but marvel at the Second Grandma's intelligence.
Jiang Zhaoyue said proudly, "You didn't expect me to be so smart, did you?"
Is there such a boastful master?
But Nanny Sun found this Second Madam quite likable. She nodded and said, "Yes, Second Madam is a smart person."
"Thank you for the compliment." Jiang Zhaoyue said with a smile, "However, to prevent me from making mistakes, Madam Sun, please come with me to the birthday party."
"yes."
Jiang Zhaoyue studied for another two days. On the morning of the third day, while having dinner with Pei Jingzhou, he said, "Second Master, I will go to Songqing Hall to see my mother in a while, and then start welcoming guests."
"Yeah." Pei Jingzhou nodded.
"If you're worried about me, come see me." Pei Jingzhou's injury had not healed yet, and he had a lot of things to deal with, so he did not participate in the Spring Banquet.
Pei Jingzhou raised his eyelids and glanced at Jiang Zhaoyue: "I understand."
After Jiang Zhaoyue had his meal, he brought Nanny Sun and others to Songqing Hall.
Wang and others were already in the main hall.
Jiang Zhaoyue saluted.
"Everyone is here, let's prepare for the Spring Banquet." Wang gave a direct order.
Jiang Zhaoyue and others responded.
Nanny Sun whispered, "The Crown Prince's wife is here, so Second Madam can just follow her."
The Crown Prince is in poor health, and his wife accompanies him in the courtyard every day. Today she left the courtyard for the Spring Banquet.
Jiang Zhaoyue and others followed her to Baihua Garden where the banquet was held.
The servants were arranging the tables, chairs, screens, pitching pots, archery targets and other items for the spring banquet.
The Crown Prince's wife instructed Jiang Zhaoyue and others to check everywhere.
Jiang Zhaoyue obeyed the order and went to check.
"Second sister-in-law." Pei Siya suddenly came close to Jiang Zhaoyue and called softly.
"Fourth sister." Jiang Zhaoyue smiled.
Pei Siya's face was solemn, and she said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Third sister will deal with you at the banquet."
