The grass in the factory should be plucked

Chapter 356: Welcoming Party (Part )

Of course, after Cui Ai returned home, she talked about this matter with Shen Muchun, but that’s another story.

At this time, Jiang Li was chatting and laughing with Cui Han, when Mingyue came to report: "Your Majesty, the banquet is about to begin. Aunt Lian invites you, the young county lady, and the young prince to come over."

Jiang Li said: "Okay, we'll be there right away."

She jumped off the couch, took the fox fur cloak that Fei'er handed her, and was about to put it on.

Cui Han held her down and asked, "Are you going out like this?"

Jiang Li looked at herself in the mirror. She was wearing a bright red brocade robe with golden embroidered cloud patterns. Her hair was done in an intricate phoenix bun with several golden hairpins neatly inserted in it. The tops of the hairpins were inlaid with huge rubies, which looked both decent and gorgeous.

"Is there anything wrong?"

Cui Han smiled and said, "I know you are extremely beautiful and you look beautiful even without makeup. At least put on some lip balm."

Jiang Li seldom wears makeup at home. The twins are particularly attached to her. They would jump on her at any time and give her a kiss on the face out of the blue.

So, she usually keeps a plain face to prevent her baby from getting sick of the makeup.

Cui Ai also laughed and said, "Our prince thinks that rouge and powder stain his skin."

"Then you should also lightly brush your eyebrows."

Cui Han smiled, pushed Jiang Li in front of the dressing table, opened the dressing box, carefully drew her eyebrows, applied lip balm, and pinned a peony in her hair. Jiang Li suddenly became radiant and bright.

"That's more like it." Cui Han was very satisfied.

"The Duke is here." Fei'er announced from outside.

Xie Changan strode in, and Jiang Li happened to turn around and look at him with a smile on her face.

Even though they had been married for three years and had two children, he was still amazed by the sight of his beloved wife dressed up in her best clothes and was literally mesmerized for a moment.

Seeing the two of them staring at each other infatuatedly, Cui Han couldn't help but chuckle and pulled Cui Ai out: "Let's go first."

Jiang Li blushed and said angrily, "Aren't we going to have a feast? What are you doing in the backyard?"

Xie Changan said affectionately: "I'm here to pick up my wife."

"Father! Mother!"

"Liangliang..."

Seeing the two were about to go out hand in hand, the forgotten twins couldn't stand it anymore and crawled over to hug the legs of their unscrupulous parents.

Jiang Li felt a little guilty and quickly picked up Xie Buli: "Come, mother will carry you out."

Xie Changan picked up Xie Buqi, then took Xie Buli from Jiang Li's hands, and said with a smile, "Daddy will hold you, don't tire mom out."

The banquet was held in Tingyu Tower on the island in the middle of the lake. This time it was a banquet for relatives and friends, so there was no distinction between men and women, and each family sat at one table.

After the guests were seated, Tingyu Tower actually began to rotate slowly, which made countless jaws drop.

"It is indeed worthy of being the masterpiece of the Mohist master!"

“It’s truly a masterpiece!”

The guests were all amazed.

The children also exclaimed.

"Wow, the whole building is spinning!"

"so fun!"

At this time, Xie Changan and Jiang Li came together, one was extremely handsome, the other was extremely beautiful, and everyone praised them, saying what a perfect couple they were!

Of course, the most eye-catching thing is the twins, a boy and a girl, that Xie Changan is holding.

Two little dolls with picturesque features and delicate makeup were wearing identical red brocade clothes, with gold necklaces on their chests and a jade pendant hanging on them.

A family of four walked into Tingyu Tower, first greeting their grandfather Liao Wuyong while holding the twins, and then greeting their great-grandmother and grandfather.

Jiang Xiuyuan looked at the twins, a boy and a girl, who looked exactly like Xie Changan, and his eyes turned red. If Fang Yi were still alive, she would not know how happy she would be to see the twins.

Even if he feels extremely guilty now and beats his chest and stamps his feet, there is no way for him to regret it!

Madam Jiang was genuinely happy and reached out to hold the twins: "Baby, let your great-grandmother hold you!"

Xie Buli and Xie Buqi turned their heads away and buried their faces in their father's arms, refusing to be hugged by her.

Old Madam Jiang was quite disappointed.

Jiang Li and her friend held the twins, a boy and a girl, and recognized them one by one. When they came to Gao Yisong, Gao Yisong and Jiang quickly stood up and praised them again and again, saying that the twins were so adorable!

Gao Wenxuan also took Jiang Yao, as well as his son and daughter, Gao Han and Gao Hui, to pay their respects to Jiang Li and Xie Changan.

After Jiang Li left the palace, it was the first time that Jiang Yao met her half-sister. Seeing her dressed up in gorgeous clothes, covered in jewels and dazzling beauty, she felt extremely jealous and her teeth were about to break.

Gao Wenxuan was amazed. This cousin of his aunt was indeed as stunningly beautiful as the rumors said!

He glanced at his eclipsed wife, and once again secretly hated why he had married the eldest daughter of the Jiang family instead of the second daughter.

Jiang smiled apologetically: "Your Highness and A-Yao haven't seen each other for a long time, right? The Jiang family only has you two sisters, so you must get closer to them in the future."

Jiang Li said calmly: "Before I was fifteen, I didn't know I had an older sister. It's like she just appeared out of nowhere. Now I want to get close to her, but I don't know how to get close to her."

Gao Wenxuan secretly tugged at Jiang Yao's sleeve, signaling her to say something nice.

Jiang Yao turned her head away stubbornly, hiding the resentment in her eyes.

Jiang was all smiles and wanted to say something, but Xie Changan said impatiently: "Today we are just getting to know each other, we can talk about this later, don't delay the feast."

After that, he held the twins and motioned Jiang Li to follow. The family of four returned to the Chairman's Office and sat with Liao Wuyong and Aunt Lian.

The banquet officially began, a group of musicians played music, several dancers danced gracefully, and all kinds of delicacies were served like water.

While enjoying their meals, the guests admired the different beautiful scenery of the four gardens as the Tingyu Tower slowly rotated.

The scenery was picturesque and the wine was intoxicating. Both the guests and the hosts enjoyed the banquet very much.

Madam Jiang, Mrs. Jiang and others wanted to take the opportunity to get close to Jiang Li, but the banquet was only halfway through when Jiang Li left early with the two babies, saying that the twins were sleepy and wanted to go back for a nap, leaving Xie Changan to deal with them.

Madam Jiang had seen Xie Changan's attitude of turning his face away from her, so how could she dare to get close to him? She could only give up in dismay.

Not long after this banquet, the whole capital knew that the twins, a boy and a girl, born to Prince Jing'an and Duke Dingguo looked exactly like Duke Dingguo!

The rumors circulating in the community were proven false and no one gossiped about them anymore.

Jiang Li and Xie Changan both began to resume their daily duties.

Jiang Li converted the house in Longmen into the "Office of the Director General of Commerce" and took the twins there to work every day.

She also tricked Li Jie, the Marquis of Ji'an, into joining the General Administration of Commerce as deputy director of the Supervision Department, ready to take over her job.

Xie Changan went to the Xishan camp to train troops early in the morning every day, and came back in the afternoon to pick up his wife and children and take them back home.

Everything started to get on track.

At this time, Nangong Qinghe received an urgent message from the Fujian Navy, which was sent eight hundred miles away, containing one good news and one bad news.

The good news is that the team that went to Southeast Asia is coming back!

The bad news is that the team disappeared near Ryukyu in the East China Sea!
