Chapter 022: Birthday Feast

First of all, the aunt Zhou Qing brought the princess of Ning'an County to the house, and Mrs. Guangyuanbo, Mrs. Dingchengbo, Mrs. Shilang of the Ministry of Officials, Mrs. Wailang of the Ministry of Works, and other orders and orders were all brought gifts to congratulate.

All the ladies and wives were welcomed to the Cong Green Hall in the mansion to change their clothes with tea.

In order to avoid the unjustified disaster in her previous life, Zhou Mingshan followed the third sister Zhou Mingke early and received the girls with her.

Fortunately, after Jia Xinyi came, she just said a few words to her, and then went to other familiar girls to contact her feelings, so that Zhou Mingshan could relax a little.

After resting for a while, just as everyone was about to get up and go to Chunhui Hall to worship their birthdays and enter the table, there was a sudden announcement outside: "The prince of Xianguo is coming to congratulate!"

For a while, all the women looked at each other, and the well-informed one looked straight at the third grandmother Yuan. Others have already poked their necks out to look out.

Zhou Mingshan's face was silent, but she was secretly happy in her heart, she thought that the Xianguo Mansion would not come, and she didn't want Mrs. Tai to send the prince to congratulate, although there were no female relatives to come, it was a surprise!

Zhou Mingluo, the second girl who was a few steps away from her, her face was instantly ugly, and she glanced at Zhou Mingshan from time to time.

After a while, there was no more announcement, and everyone's expressions changed, but they didn't say anything, and then got up and came to Chunhui Hall.

Subsequently, the daughters of the Zhou family gave the Yang family a birthday greeting and presented a birthday gift, which was tossed back and forth for more than half an hour before it was finished.

After the birthday feast began, Zhou Mingshan was arranged to Jia Xinyi's table, and there were several girls sitting together.

"Mingshan, what's wrong with you today, are you feeling unwell?" Xu was aware of Zhou Mingshan's abnormality, and Jia Xinyi whispered in her ear.

When Jia Xinyi leaned over, Zhou Mingshan's mind immediately appeared with the red lips that opened and closed and the cold shoes that stepped on her face.

She subconsciously ducked to the side, but when she saw Jia Xinyi's slightly frowning eyebrows, she tried her best to hold back!

"Oh, it's a little uncomfortable! You don't care about me, I'll take care of myself!" Zhou Mingshan moved slightly, and replied to her in a low voice.

Jia Xinyi nodded as if she was aware and didn't speak again.

One exquisite dish after another was put on the table, during which Zhou Mingshan kept paying attention to Jia Xinyi and the maids beside her, for fear that she would miss any information.

In her previous life, Jia Xinyi was at the banquet, and suddenly asked a little girl to come over and pass the word, saying that she was asked to go to the back garden and had something important to tell her.

The two of them were so good at the time, she went without suspicion at all. This time, she wants to open her eyes to see how Jia Xinyi will sing this play!

It's a pity that until all the dishes are served, Zhou Mingshan didn't notice that Jia Xinyi had the slightest suspicious movement, the other party was just concentrating on eating, and occasionally when the two looked at each other, Jia Xinyi would smile at her.

Zhou Mingshan was so preoccupied that she used a few chopsticks, so she said that she was full and didn't have the heart to use it again.

Could it be that her rebirth has changed the trajectory of things, and Jia Xinyi no longer calculates her?

Or was what the second sister said that day known to Jia Xinyi, and Jia Xinyi thought that she was on guard and didn't dare to do it lightly? If that's the case, then this woman is too hateful!

Now that she already knows that she already knows, she still pretends that nothing has happened, as if she is a good sister, and pretends to care about her!

In an instant, Zhou Mingshan's heart seemed to be pressed by a heavy stone, which made her breathless!

has fought with Jia Xinyi so many times, she knows how powerful this woman is, if the other party has to calculate her, then she still has famine, and she must be cautious everywhere!

At the end of the feast, because it was cold and snowy outside, the ladies returned to Cong Lu Hall, some of them got together to talk and laugh, and some of them liked to play cards, so they called some people to have fun together.

The girls were led by Ming Luo, and the sisters were assigned to the Yijing Pavilion separated from Cong Lu Hall to rest and play.

Those who are familiar with each other have already found their own friends and gathered together to whisper. There are also flexible minds, even if they didn't know each other in the past, they will find opportunities to introduce each other in order to intersect.

Zhou Mingshan sat under the window and let the cold wind blow his hot head in order to calm down and deal with what might happen later!

Now that the trajectory of things has changed, there is always the possibility of accidents!

"Fourth sister, fourth sister, come here!" I heard the voice of the third sister Zhou Mingke.

Zhou Mingshan sorted out her thoughts, smiled, and turned her head to look at where the voice came from.

The third girl, Zhou Mingke, was smiling and saying something with a few strange girls, waving to her as she spoke.

Zhou Mingshan couldn't go over, but after a glance at the field, it was the host of his own family after all, and it was not easy to make people laugh!

She slowly moved in the direction of Zhou Mingke.

Walking up, Zhou Mingke grabbed her and smiled at the other girls: "Look, people are here!

After laughing, he turned to Zhou Mingshan and said: "Just now, these sisters were asking who is the granddaughter of the Duchess of Xianguo, and I said that I can invite people, but they still don't believe it!

As soon as she heard her words, Zhou Mingshan was a little displeased, the feeling that something was wrong before came again, she barely suppressed her feelings, and said with a smile: "What are the third sisters talking about? Don't take the sisters to make a fool of yourself! If you want to find the granddaughter of the Duchess of Xianguo, you should also go to the Changping Houfu to find it, what's the matter with coming here? If the people in the Xianguo Mansion hear it, can't you laugh at us for not knowing people?"

The daughter of the Duchess of Xianguo married into Changping Houfu.

Although the grandmother and the Duchess of Xianguo were intimate, no one said anything, the third sister was so big that she was able to promote her as the granddaughter of the Duchess of Xianguo, is this helping her or harming her?

No matter who first put forward this "granddaughter of the Duchess of Xianguo", she deliberately sneered and frightened, just to dispel the thoughts of this group of people, so as not to spread it to the Xianguo Mansion and record it on her head, so that the Tai Lady thought she was frivolous.

As soon as Zhou Mingshan said such a thing, the girls obviously had doubts in their eyes, which made Zhou Mingshan even more sure that it must have been deliberately started by Zhou Mingke.

Seeing everyone's expressions, Zhou Mingke obviously didn't expect Zhou Mingshan to refute like this, and his face was a little scornful, but then he changed the topic: "Alas, you see I'm just joking! Everyone believes it, and now there is such a misunderstanding, I'm really embarrassed, I'll accompany everyone!"

All the girls who come to congratulate their birthdays are either friends with the house or from the in-laws in the house.

Therefore, including Zhou Mingshan, who would really accept Zhou Mingke's courtesy, everyone turned sideways and dodged over, and they still had to talk for her, admitting that they had misunderstood!
