When Zeng Yuwei saw how disrespectful her family was, she didn't want to bring trouble to herself, so she quickly took her two daughters back to the Zeng Family Stand.
The Zeng family's daughter was pregnant with a dragon seed, and the Zeng family also got a viewing room, but it was located near the end and the area was not large. Except for Mrs. Zeng, who was sitting, everyone else could only stand.
Mrs. Zeng frowned slightly when she saw Zeng Yuwei coming back with a bad look on her face.
Since Shi Zhenghe and his family were taken back to the Shi family, the Shi family has not only become estranged from their son-in-law, but their relationship with the Zeng family has also become more distant.
Especially after the matchmaking incident with Shi Fuyin, the Shi family would no longer send any messages to the Zeng family when holding a banquet.
She was very angry about this.
Therefore, when she knew that her son-in-law was bringing the Li family to Beijing, she did not stop her because she wanted to disgust the Shi family.
But she never expected that the Shi family would let go so simply and stop interacting with her son-in-law.
After all, the Wuchang House was the founder of the country. Although it has declined, it still has some foundations. Now there are signs of revival. If such in-laws break off, it will be a great loss not only to the daughter and son-in-law, but also to the Zeng family.
Especially when thinking of the Li family described by her daughter, Mrs. Zeng couldn't help but raise her hand and rub her forehead.
She was really afraid that when the Li family came to Beijing, they would not disgust Shi's family, but instead harm her daughter's family.
"Yuwei."
Madam Zeng called Zeng Yuwei to her side and whispered: "As for the Li family, you just send some food and clothing every now and then, and send someone to take care of them more diligently. You and the children don't go there."
Zeng Yuwei nodded. In fact, she didn't want to have too much contact with the Li family even without her mother's instructions.
Too bad!
The Li family is really unworthy of publicity. To put it bluntly, they are even worse than the servants in her village.
When she thought that her husband came from such a family, she felt an unspeakable sense of shame in her heart.
She actually married into such a family!
Also, she was really curious. Shi Zhenghe was raised by the Li family. Why didn't their family inherit the family spirit of the Li family at all?
Looking at the viewing room of the Shi family and seeing many people passing by to greet Mr. Shi and others, she really regretted encouraging her husband to bring the Li family to Beijing.
Shi Fuxin was not affected by Zeng Yuwei's mother and daughter. After watching the guards warming up on the ice rink, she began to look at the people in the stands.
The stands are distributed in an inverted concave shape. The one in the north is large and exquisite, and almost all the people sitting in it are relatives of the emperor. The stands on the left and right are relatively simple and small, and the officials and nobles are assigned positions according to their honors and favors.
The less likely it is to have the Sacred Heart.
Looking at the seats, one can see that those officials are now in a position of great honor and power.
Shi Fuxin watched one by one with great interest, when suddenly there was a noise at the entrance of the ice rink. When she looked for the sound, it turned out that it was Chu Yao, Dongfang Changqing, Wei Yichen and Xiao Ziqing.
"Did the four of them make an appointment to show up together?"
Shi Fuxin looked at it with bright eyes and sighed in her heart, it's so eye-catching!
"The four beauties of the capital. It's rare to see them appear at the same time."
"Sister, who among the four of them is the prettiest?"
Shi Fuxin asked for a long time but did not hear Shi Fuyin's response. When she turned around, she saw Shi Fuyin looking at the entrance of the ice rink without blinking.
Haha, her sister also likes to look at beautiful men.
"Sister, I'm asking you something." Shi Fuxin smiled and bumped Shi Fuyin with her elbow.
Shi Fuyin came back to her senses and looked at her sister's playful smile, feeling a little helpless: "They all look good."
Shi Fuxin kept chasing after her: "Which one is the prettiest? In other words, which one do you like best?"
Shi Fuyin glanced at her sister, then turned around to talk to the Shi sisters.
Shi Fuxin: "."
I can't make a joke, I'm just asking whose face I like better.
Shi Fuxin shifted her gaze back to the four beauties in the capital, looking at this, then that, and finally her gaze fell on Chu Yao.
The other three were all serious, but that guy was a bit naughty.
"Young Master Yao San is already nineteen, isn't he?"
"Seems to be."
"After Dongfang Yunrong married the sixth prince, I never heard that Young Master Yao asked any girl to marry him. Is this because his heart is broken?"
"Young Master Yao San will never marry again, right?"
"How is it possible? Even if he doesn't want to marry, Prince Rong and the princess will make arrangements for him."
"Hey, speaking of it, Young Master Yao is quite pitiful. When he proposed to marry Dongfang Yunrong with such great fanfare, he never thought that Dongfang Yunrong would end up marrying the sixth prince."
"is not that right."
"Young Master Yao San must have fallen in love with Dongfang Yunrong, otherwise he wouldn't be so depressed."
depressed?
Listening to the conversation between the girls in the viewing room next door, Shi Fuxin took a closer look at Chu Yao's expression. How could this person be depressed?
However, he failed to marry Dongfang Yunrong, which must have frustrated him quite a bit.
"Dang, Dang, Dang~"
Several drums sounded, the emperor's carriage arrived, and everyone stood up.
At this moment, the entire ice rink stopped all noise, and everyone silently watched the emperor's guard of honor.
Surrounded by the imperial guards and imperial guards, the emperor got off the carriage and walked toward the stand, followed by the queen, concubines, and the princes and princesses.
Shi Fuxin's gaze swept across the crowd and landed on the eldest prince.
The cheap apprentice looked a little sickly pale, and looked a little frail against the ruddy-faced prince and others.
"It looks pretty good in disguise!"
If she hadn't known that the eldest prince was already in good health, she would have almost been deceived just by looking at him.
Also, whoever hangs around in the palace is not a human spirit. If they don't pretend to be human, they will be exposed easily.
Not long after, the emperor and his group arrived in front of the stand.
Just when the emperor and others were glaring at the stage, Shi Fuxin's expression suddenly changed.
Someone in the crowd kicked a piece of ice at the feet of the eldest prince. The eldest prince didn't pay attention, stepped on the ice, and his body suddenly slipped forward.
What's terrible is that walking in front of him are the concubines.
Just when the eldest prince couldn't control his body and pressed towards the concubine, at the critical moment, a steady and strong arm supported him.
"First Prince, be careful!"
Shi Dingxuan held the eldest prince firmly.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The eldest prince still had a look of fear on his face. He nodded gratefully towards Shi Dingxuan and continued to walk to the stands.
Since the pause was not long, it did not affect the pace of others.
The emperor looked back and didn't ask anything. Although others noticed something strange, they were all watching at the moment and didn't say anything.
"Who arranged this place and there are ice cubes?!"
When the emperor sat down, Shi Dinghao, who was following him, muttered softly.
The prince and several other princes were close enough to hear these words. They looked at Shi Dinghao and then at Shi Dingxuan, who was standing under the stand guarding him. Their expressions were somewhat unclear.
The eldest prince also looked at the two brothers of the Shi family, with surprise flashing in his eyes.
Shigoro caught him in time, and Shikuro helped him explain in front of his father. If he hadn't known that the two people had not taken refuge with him, he would have thought that they were his people.
Seeing the eldest prince sitting down safely, Shi Fuxin's heart dropped.
If the eldest prince pounced on the emperor's concubine in public, the scene would be ugly. Whether it was intentional or not, it would definitely make the emperor feel uncomfortable.
Even if you don't jump on the concubine, falling down on such an occasion is still an extremely dishonorable thing.
Shi Fuxin glanced at the guard who was lifting the ice cube out, and silently took note of his appearance.
The life of a cheap apprentice is really not easy for people. There are palace fights every day. If you are not careful, you can easily fall into the trap of others.
At the emperor's signal, everyone sat down again, and the ice rink resumed its hustle and bustle.
As soon as the emperor arrived, the ice fun officially began.
The first thing to start is walking on skates.
Thousands of guards were running on the ice rink at the same time, doing various movements in a uniform manner. The scene was very spectacular.
In the viewing room of the Shi family, the juniors of the Shi family stood up one after another, stretched their necks and looked at Shi Dingxuan on the ice rink, cheering from time to time, with pride on their faces.
The elders at that time also had proud faces. Listening to the various boasts of the neighbors, the smiles on their faces never stopped.
Promising children and grandchildren are the foundation for the prosperity of the family.
After the shocking and spectacular skate walking, it was speed skating, and Shi Dingxuan also participated.
"Can fifth brother take first place?"
"Definitely."
"I heard that the top three will receive personal rewards from the emperor."
The girls from the Shi family watched nervously, and when they saw Shi Dingxuan rushing ahead of everyone on the ice rink, they all showed bright smiles.
"Fifth brother is the most powerful!"
In speed skating, Shi Dingxuan won first place, and walked to the stage with the second and third placers to receive the emperor's reward.
While watching at the Shi family, Shi Fuyin stretched her neck and looked towards the imperial platform: "What reward did fifth brother get?" Unfortunately, it was too far away to see clearly.
Shi Fuxin: "A dagger inlaid with rubies."
Shi Fuyin turned to look at her sister: "You have really good eyesight."
Shi Fuxin smiled and said nothing.
At this moment, Mrs. Zhao led Zhao Yuyan over.
When the old lady saw her, she quickly got up with her daughters-in-law to greet him.
The two parties greeted each other and exchanged greetings for a while, then sat down and chatted about the usual matters.
Zhao Yuyan was familiar with Shi Fuyin and Shi Fuxin and sat directly between the Shi sisters.
Shi Fuxin was a little surprised that Mrs. Zhao would take the initiative to bring Zhao Yuyan to their side. The Zhao family and his son were both people with real power, and they were in the heart of the emperor. There were many people at the scene who wanted to make friends with the Zhao family.
"Sister Zhao, is there something wrong with Aunt Zhao coming over?"
A trace of discomfort flashed across Zhao Yuyan's face: "You can't come over if you have nothing to do?"
Shi Fuxin looked puzzled and said with a smile: "Of course not. Come here, it's too late for us to be happy."
Before, when they met in public, Zhao Yuyan usually only talked to Shi Fuyin and Shi Fuxin. This time, she even joked with the Shi sisters from time to time.
Shi Fuxin looked at Zhao Yuyan, and then at Mrs. Zhao, who was chatting lively with the female members of the Shi family. She always felt that the mother and daughter were going to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing.
Soon, Shi Fuxin's prediction came true.
After Shi Dingxuan received the emperor's reward, he came to the Shi family to look at the room with a dagger.
When Mrs. Zhao saw Shi Dingxuan, she kept praising her and asked Zhao Yuyan to come out to see Shi Dingxuan.
When Zhao Yuyan paid tribute to Shi Dingxuan, she lost her previous gracefulness and lowered her head shyly.
Looking at this scene, Shi Fuxin seemed to know why Mrs. Zhao took the initiative to make friends with the Shi family.
Zhao Yuyan and her brother
"This Mingtai Ice Rink has two ice rinks, one large and one small. Now we can see that this ice rink is large, and there is a small ice rink behind it."
"Dingxuan, you are good at ice paddling. Your sister Yuyan wants to learn. How about you teach her?"
As soon as these words came out, Shi Dingxuan was stunned, and Shi's family members were also a little stunned.
Mrs. Shi looked at Shi Dingxuan and Zhao Yuyan, smiled and said nothing.
Mrs. Zhao realized that she spoke too bluntly, and immediately looked at Shi Fuyin. Shi Fuxin said, "Sister Yin, sister Xin, you guys should go too. With you here, Yuyan can learn faster."
Shi Fuyin also understood what Mrs. Zhao meant. Seeing that her brother was still standing dumbfounded, in order to avoid an ugly scene, she immediately stepped forward with a smile and took Zhao Yuyan's arm: "Okay, it just so happens that Sister Xin and I are both here."
I want to learn to skate."
"skate?"
"Sister Yin, Sister Xin, do you want to go skating? Can you take me with you?"
Xia Hou walked into the Shi family's viewing room with a smile on his face. The generous Chao Shi family members and Mrs. Zhao greeted her and then walked to Shi Dingxuan's side.
"Brother Dingxuan, you looked so majestic on the ice rink just now. My ancestor is not here today. I must talk to him properly when I get back."
"Are you going to take Sister Xin and Sister Yin to skate? I want to go too. I happen to not be very good at skating yet. You have to teach me. Not to mention galloping around the ice rink like you, at least I have to
I think I'm probably as good as you."
Well.
Xiahou Huanyan's sudden arrival gave Shi Dingxuan, who was already a little unsure of what to do, even more headache.
If he refuses, will it be too embarrassing for the two girls?
Shi Fuxin looked at her brother who was a little embarrassed and wanted to refuse, and wanted to laugh a little, so she couldn't help but walked over: "Brother, do you have time to teach us? Don't you have to go on an errand?"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Shi Dingxuan's eyes suddenly lit up, and he bowed apologetically to Mrs. Zhao: "Aunt Zhao, I have to go back to work, and I can't teach Miss Zhao how to skate.
"
Mrs. Zhao glanced at Xia Hou Huanyan, Cheng Jiaojin, who suddenly appeared, and immediately said with a smile: "It's important to be on duty."
Shi Dingxuan looked at Xiahou Huanyan again, and before he could speak, Xiahou Huanyan took the initiative to smile and said: "It's okay, brother Dingxuan, I can't teach you this time, just teach me next time you go to my house."
Listening to Xiahou Huanyan's familiar and friendly tone, Shi Dingxuan felt a little embarrassed. Without saying anything, he smiled apologetically at everyone and left quickly.
Seeing her brother running away, Shi Fuxin put her hand to her mouth and snickered. When she saw her sister staring at her, she quickly put her hand down.
"Huanyan, sit here."
Shi Fuyin pulled Xiahou Huanyan and sat between the girls.
After Xiahou Huanyan sat down, she first talked to the Shi sisters for a while, and then looked at Zhao Yuyan with a smile: "Miss Zhao is so pretty."
Zhao Yuyan smiled back: "I can't compare to Miss Xiahou's beauty."
Xiahou Huanyan put her hands on her temples: "Miss Zhao is too arrogant to belittle herself. By the way, Miss Zhao wants to learn skating, why don't she ask her brother to teach her? Why did she come to find Brother Dingxuan?"
Zhao Yuyan looked at Xia Hou Huanyan: "Because Brother Shi Wu skates better."
Xia Hou agreed with a smile on his face: "Brother Dingxuan is really good at skating." He said with a pursed smile, "It's a pity that he is a busy man and let Miss Zhao down."
Zhao Yuyan: "Isn't Miss Xiahou also disappointed?"
Xiahou Huanyan raised his chin: "I'm not disappointed. Anyway, Brother Dingxuan often goes to my house, so there are plenty of opportunities for him to teach me how to skate."
Zhao Yuyan also said: "If Miss Xiahou didn't remind me, I would have forgotten. Brother Shi Wu often goes to my house."
Listening to the conversation between the two, Shi Fuyin and Shi Fuxin looked at each other in confusion.
