Chapter 163

Today, all of you are distinguished people. In addition to the elders of the Xia family, there are also important officials of the dynasty.

In addition to the Regent and the prince, there are also Liang Taifu, the commander of Zhongshu Province, Mr. Cui of Shangshu department, Chen Taijun, Mr. Xiao Gong and Mrs. Xiao of Jingguo, Mr. and Mrs. Hou of Huaibei, and Murong Zhuangzhuang, the eldest princess of Zhongshu province. Everyone is a distinguished person when their titles are thrown out.

Xia Wan'er came in when everyone looked at her. The bride said with a smile, "the second lady offers tea to her wife."

"Kneel down!" She said.

Xia Wan'er knelt down in front of Ximen Xiaoyue, and the bride came up with tea, "the second young lady called on her mother."

Xia Wan'er kowtowed, then raised her head, took the tea from the wedding mother's saucer and offered it to Ximen Xiaoyue. She said with a smile, "mother, please have tea."

Ximen Xiaoyue took the tea with a smile, took a sip, and then put it down. The bride passed the red envelope. Ximen Xiaoyue took it and handed it to Xia Wan'er, saying, "get up."

Xia Wan'er took the red envelope and said, "thank you, mother!"

Xiniang said with a smile: "after drinking this cup of tea, I will continue my parents' kindness. The second young lady, please stand behind her wife."

Xia Wan'er stands up and walks behind Ximen Xiaoyue, looking complacent.

From now on, Ximen Xiaoyue will be her mother. As for her biological mother, Chen Linglong, she will fade out of everyone's sight as time goes by. As long as she goes out with Ximen Xiaoyue on many occasions, no one will remember who Chen Linglong is.

For Xia Waner's cooperation, the old lady and Prime Minister Xia are very satisfied.

Now they are more worried about Xia Zian.

However, she didn't want to offer tea when so many guests were present, because Xia Wan'er, the future crown princess, had already offered tea to her mother, so she would not lose her sense of propriety.

If you really disrespect tea, she is the only one who is impolite.

The late Xia Zian came down in full view of the public. She came in like a whirlwind and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I've kept you waiting for a long time."

After she came in, she took out a red envelope from her sleeve bag and handed it to Simon Xiaoyue before waiting for the bride to speak. Then she took a cup of tea from the bride's saucer and drank it up. She said with a smile, "it's all a family. My aunt doesn't have to offer me tea. I just drink it."

After drinking tea, she put the cup back into the saucer of the bridegroom. Seeing the surprise on everyone's face, Simon Xiaoyue was dismayed by the gloom on her face. "What's the matter?"

"The first lady is going to offer tea to her wife," she said

Zian gave a sound, as if shocked, "really? What Xi Niang means is that I want to offer tea to my aunt, right? "

the old lady lowered her face," what aunt? Call it mother

"But I have a mother, so this one is a little mother?" Zi an was so helpless that he looked at Xi Niang dejectedly. "Xi Niang, you know the rules. Just teach me. According to the rules, should I tell my aunt No, little mother, tea

Xi Niang was invited by the Duke of Jin. Naturally, she had to do it according to Ximen Xiaoyue's mind and said, "Miss, because madam is entering the gate of the prime minister's residence as a flat wife, and she is also today's first lady of Gaoming. It's right for miss to offer her tea and respect her mother again."

Zi an suddenly realized that he was sorry and said, "sorry, I misunderstood the law and thought that Ping's wife was also a concubine."

It is impossible for the people to throw this out because it is stipulated in the marriage law that Ping's wife is a concubine. According to the law, it should be Simon Xiaoyue who offers tea to the eldest lady, because the wife of the main room is not here.

Xiniang's face also changed slightly. At this moment, she couldn't tell Zian that she would kneel down to offer tea, otherwise, it would be against the law.

If these things go up according to the true law, then everything will come according to the law, and all the rules set by Simon Xiaoyue will be abolished.

The old lady's face sank a little more. "Zian, you're going to marry the Regent soon. Don't make a fool of yourself. Hurry up and offer tea to your mother."

In fact, this is for the regent to listen to, let the Regent speak a lesson, all of a sudden an don't understand the rules, because Simon Xiaoyue is a pingaoming lady, zi'an has no title in her body, if the Regent respects fenggao etiquette, she should let Xia Zian kneel down to offer tea.

The old lady felt that the Regent should not offend the Duke of Jin because of such a small problem. He is a wise man. It's not good for him to offend the Duke of Jin.

However, Murong Jie did not seem to understand the meaning of the old lady, sitting on the chair, fingers gently tapping on the arm, a look of impatience.

It's like the red tape is wasting his time.

With him, Murong Zhuangzhuang didn't care about it. She just felt a little impatient.

But the prince was very unhappy. He said to his son, "what are you doing? Let you kneel down to offer tea, and you just do it. "

Zi'an was very cooperative and said, "Your Highness's orders will be obeyed."

Then he reached for the cup of tea.

Ximen Xiaoyue's expression just slightly improved. She adjusted her skirt and waited for Zian to kneel down.However, Liang Taifu said at this time, "wait!"

Zi an stopped and looked at Liang Taifu suspiciously.

Everyone also looked at him, most people understand why Liang Taifu stopped zi'an from offering tea.

Because the prince made a sound, if the Prince did not make a sound, Zian knelt down or kowtowed, Liang Taifu would not care.

Sometimes, when the so-called rules conflict with the law, the law must come first.

It's not in accordance with the law for the prince to ask Xia Zian to offer tea. When the prince goes to do something against the law, isn't the prince laughed at? If Murong Jie wants to be investigated, he can still be investigated.

Therefore, it is impossible for Taifu to allow such a thing to happen.

Liang Taifu said faintly: "according to the regulations of hulv. Marriage gate of Dazhou, Ping's wife is a concubine. If the eldest lady offers her tea, it is tantamount to disordering the position of wife and concubine, which is against the law."

Ximen Xiaoyue clenched her clothes and was so angry that her face turned green. Now that she had moved out the law, she could no longer ask Xia Zian to offer tea. However, she didn't accept the red envelope that Xia Zian handed over.

If you accept it, isn't it the same as admitting that you are a concubine? But if you don't accept it, the red envelope will be put in front of you and you can't lose it.

Xia Wan'er saw that Xia Zian was always reluctant to offer tea, so she wanted to please Ximen Xiaoyue. She said to her son, "sister, don't make any more trouble. After offering tea to her mother, everyone is a family. What about wives and concubines? Where does status matter? "

Zi an was in a bit of a dilemma. Looking at Liang Taifu, "my Lord, do I knock this head or not?"

Liang Taifu cursed Zian's obstinacy in her heart. It was clear that she didn't want to kneel down and kowtow, but she seemed to be at a loss and put the responsibility on others.

Seeing this, the old lady said to Liang Taifu, "since she is Ping's wife, she is the wife of the prime minister. As a descendant of the prime minister, it's right to kowtow and offer tea to her. Moreover, Xiaoyue has a title. According to the etiquette system, even if she is an old lady, she has to salute her. What's more, she is a junior?"

Liang Taifu nodded, "I have a point. If we regard it as a title, the first lady should offer tea to her wife."

"Fart!"

There was a low, unhappy voice outside the door, and it was Prince Li.
