Marrying a powerful eunuch three times

"The wine that Su Shaoqing brought is for everyone to drink. Why did you drink it alone?" The Minister of Works would not allow him to drink it. Who isn't a hero in the land of wine?

Su Buli let go.

With a smile on his face, he chatted with Zhou Chengru for a while.

This made Zhou Chengru very happy. The Su family's attitude remained the same as before, which meant that they did not notice anything unusual at all.

He had a smile on his face, but a knife in his heart.

Zhou Wenyi and Zhou Wenqing came over to greet him, calling him "uncle" warmly. The fifth prince asked a few questions and admired Zhou Wenyi very much.

I want to give Zhou Wenyi a chance for the sake of my child.

When many officials learned that the Fifth Prince and Prince Kang were coming to the Zhou Mansion to celebrate the birthday, they also hurried over with birthday gifts.

*

Shangqi and Zhou Wenyan walked out.

He shook Zhou Wenyan's hand away in disgust, and his tone became much colder. "Why are you dawdling? Are you not full?"

Zhou Wenyan was indeed not full.

The maids in his yard treated him harshly and always gave him food that he didn't like.

"Young Master, I..."

"Is that the flower hall over there?" Shangqi asked, pointing at the flower hall hidden in the bamboo forest.

"Yes."

"You crawl like a turtle at the back, I'll go first." Shangqi looked at Zhou Wenyan's hand with disgust, and thought to himself that he would let Su Rutang know that he had been wronged later.

Zhou Wenyan suppressed the grievance in his heart.

He trotted after Shangqi.

Tears welled up in his eyes. He had tried so hard. Why did everyone bully him?

Thinking of the days at Zhuangzi.

He is still the young master that everyone likes.

Zhou Wenyan hated Murong Feiyue for a moment. She said that she would bring him into the mansion to live a good life. But when he finally entered the mansion, he saw his brothers and sisters who were also concubines living a good life.

Shangqi entered the flower hall.

"Is Madam Su here? Master Su asked me to come and see you." Shangqi shouted while standing at the door of the flower hall.

Su Rutang turned around.

He smiled at Shangqi and remembered what Shangyan said about giving him a clear way out.

From now on, just say that Shangqi likes Su Rutang.

"I am."

"My dad is in the flower room next door. I don't like people drinking and talking in languages ​​I don't understand."

Princess Kang smiled and said, "Is this Commander Shang's son?"

"Meet the Queen Consort Kang."

"Meet the Fifth Prince's Consort."

"Meet Madam Su."

……

Shang Qi would greet each of the people he had met. After greeting them, he came to Su Rutang's side.

"My hands are dirty."

Chunxi's eyebrows were dyed with a smile, "I will take the young master to wash his hands."

Shangqi wanted Su Rutang to take him to wash his hands.

He shook his head, still looking at Su Rutang.

"Okay. I'll take you to wash your hands." Su Rutang took Shangqi's other hand and took him to the bathroom outside to wash his hands.

Princess Kang smiled at Lan Xuanji and said:

"I said Rutang is lucky with children. Last time when I came back from the Su family, my little grandson was full of praise for her."

Old Madam Zhou had a smile on her face.

But she was unhappy in her heart because Su Rutang was not nice to her grandson.

Before Zhou Wenyan came in, he saw Su Rutang holding Shangqi's hand and going to the bathroom. His heart was shattered.

Why does everyone dislike him?

He hated these people.

Murong Feiyue originally wanted to build good relationships with Princess Kang and the other ladies here, but she had just taken two bites of the food and hadn't even got a chance to say anything when she was called over by a maid.

She came out in a hurry.

"whats the matter?"

"Grandma, the dishes we prepared are not enough. Many officials have come from the Second Master's place." Mrs. Liu, who was in charge of the kitchen, was extremely anxious.

"Let me think about it."

“It’s too late to purchase now.”

Murong Feiyue glared at him and said, "Why didn't you prepare more in advance?"

"Mr. Jiuhunchong is in charge of kitchen purchases. He said that we don't have that many guests in our house, so he was only willing to prepare enough for five more people." Sister Liu was also unhappy. In the past, when Su Rutang was in charge of the household, he would prepare several tables.

Even if there was any left, it would be rewarded to the important managers and servants in the front and back yards.

The remaining servants would also have extra meals, and each would be given an extra red envelope.

"Then you should tell me." Murong Feiyue's heart skipped a beat. She was afraid that Jiuhunchong would be plotted against by someone.

Sister Liu was even more wronged.

"I told you this a few days ago."

"You're still being stubborn." Murong Feiyue gave him a murderous look.

Sister Liu shut up and said nothing.

Murong Feiyue thought for a moment and said, "Give the ladies' dishes to the gentlemen first. Add some snacks to go with them. There are a lot of vegetables in the garden, so quickly arrange for someone to pick them."

Sister Liu opened her mouth.

Are you planning to let the female members of the family have a completely vegetarian banquet?

"Go quickly."

"Yes." Sister Liu nodded quickly. She was so frightened by Murong Feiyue's eyes that she forgot to tell her that the fish delivered today was not fresh.

There are more dead shrimps than alive ones.

Su Rutang held the wine glass, and a blush appeared on his pale face. "Madam Shangshu, please forgive me. I really can't hold my liquor these days."

The Shangshu's wife noticed that there was more color in her eyes, which was different from her usual lively look.

She looked at him with pity and said, "You are too weak, child. It would not be a problem for you to drink a few more bowls in the past." She lowered her head and instructed her nanny to pick out two top-quality blood ginsengs from the warehouse and send them over tomorrow.

After hearing this, Su Rutang quickly stood up and thanked him.

In a trance, she almost fell down.

Thanks to Shangqi and Chunxi for supporting her, everyone saw that she was not feeling well and hurriedly told her to go back and rest.

Su Rutang didn't want to face what was going to happen next.

He picked up the wine glass and said he would drink a glass as a punishment, and then went back to rest.

When she went out, she walked unsteadily.

The lady in the flower hall shook her head. Su Rutang was as lively as a rose, how could she become as withered as a yellow flower?

Zhou Qiongyu found an opportunity to go out.

Murong Feiyue didn't dare to go back to the flower hall, she was so busy that she had no time to rest. She had decorated the surrounding gardens so beautifully, and the ladies should focus on the gardens.

As for food?

I guess you won't pay much attention.

She comforted herself in this way and went to tell Sister Liu a few more words. She found the drunkard who was hiding and drinking, and she was so angry that she couldn't help but scold him:

"Brother, at least you should consider my face as your younger sister."

Jiuhun Chong didn't care at all, "You are too cautious. You are a meritorious official of the Zhou Mansion. You are the only chaste woman in a hundred years. You should be the old lord in the Zhou Mansion."

Murong Feiyue was so angry that tears came to her eyes.

It must be some blind Ah Wu who led her brother astray. She took off a gold bracelet from her hand. "Go to Lianxianglou and buy some cakes. The more the better."

Jiuhunchong glanced at him indifferently.

"Do you know how expensive the dim sum at Lin Heung House is?"

Murong Feiyue had no choice but to take off another gold bracelet, "Two gold bracelets are enough, right? I bought all these with cakes, you know?"

"I know, I know. You can trust me to do the job." Jiuhunchong patted his chest.

"I promise that your birthday party will be more beautiful than the one held by that woman from the Su family, so that people outside will remember you."

Murong Feiyue had no intention of competing with others.

Su Rutang used the money to hold the birthday banquet. She was a clever wife who could not make a living without money. To put it bluntly, Su Rutang relied on the money given by Zhou Chengru.

She forgot that most of Zhou Chengru's money was given to her.

Su Rutang returned to Chuitang Courtyard.

The small kitchen was asked to serve the dishes, including pepper and salt duck tongue, roast duck, steamed fish, braised lion head... every dish was delicious.

Chunxi picked up a piece of lion head and put it in Shangqi's bowl.

"Second Madam, I see there is no oil or water in the dish, even though the rich and powerful families don't use a lot of oil when cooking. But it's like it was just water..."

"I guess no one will send food to Aunt Song's place."

Su Rutang thought that Song Huaiyan was still in confinement after giving birth and must have nothing to eat or drink.

He hurriedly asked Xia An to send over some delicious dishes. "Send over another portion of red rice porridge and another portion of green stem rice. Also send over some snacks from our kitchen."

"Yes." Xia An hurriedly responded and went down.

Su Rutang picked up the fish, picked out the fish bones, and put the fish meat in Shangqi's bowl, "Eat more fish."

"I don't like it. It has too many thorns." Shangqi answered honestly.

"Mom will pick out fish bones for you from now on."

Shangqi smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed into slits. "Then I'll eat more."

He would only smile so happily in front of Su Rutang, not even in front of Shang Yan.

"Mom, Taohua is very well behaved."

Shangqi seemed to know that Su Rutang was worried about Taohua, and told Su Rutang about their daily life while eating. "Taohua is also learning martial arts. Master said that women should also be able to protect themselves."

"Your master is right." Su Rutang said to himself that he would have to bring some delicious snacks next time.

Xia An ran back in a hurry.

"Second Grandma. Something happened."
