The eldest princess of Huining, who originally planned to return to the eldest princess's mansion, had to stay because of the departure of the Marquis of Jinxiang.

Although the maids and servants in the house didn't know what was going on, they still felt an unusually depressing atmosphere, and they were much more silent than usual, and even the little maids stopped laughing and playing, for fear of touching the master's bad head.

When news came from the palace that this year's Chongyang Palace banquet was canceled, even Jingzhi could not continue to maintain the apparent calm.

Not only Luo Huanyan and the eldest princess Huining, but also the maids and daughters in the mansion also discovered the panic in Jingzhi's heart, even more panicked than when the Marquis of Jinxiang disappeared......

Seeing this, the eldest princess of Huining discussed with Luo Huanyan and said: "It's not okay to go on like this in the mansion, especially Sister Zhi'er, she is going to marry into the Marquis of Wuding Mansion in the future, the Marquis of Wuding guards the southwest, and now she looks at stability, but there is no matter at the border." ”

Luo Huanyan chuckled when she heard this: "Why don't you go to Lingquan Temple with your granddaughter-in-law and Sister Zhi to accompany you to Lingquan Temple to pray for blessings? Lingquan Temple is not as lively as Daxiangguo Temple, but the scenery is excellent." The osmanthus flowers of Lingquan Temple bloom very well every year, and I think it will not be bad this year. ”

After Luo Huanyan finished speaking, she saw the eldest princess of Huining raise her eyebrows and glance at her, and explained with a smile: "I invited the ladies and old ladies of the various provinces to accompany you, and the ladies and old ladies of the various mansions will definitely take the ladies and grandmothers with them, and it can be regarded as finding something for Sister Zhi'er to do. ”

Hearing this, the eldest princess of Huining squinted at Luo Huanyan and said with a smile: "Staying in the Zen courtyard can be regarded as having something to do?" My wife is nothing, but I am afraid that Sister Zhi will become more and more cranky when she arrives." Besides, where can your body withstand the bumps back and forth? It's a day's journey from Kyori to Lingquan Temple. ”

Seeing this, Mama Cui stepped forward and smiled: "According to the old slave, the young lady's birthday is coming, instead of going to the temple to be loose, it is better to be lively in the house, and then say that this is the first birthday of the young lady after marrying, so it should be lively and lively." ”

The smile on Luo Wanyan's face couldn't help but reluctantly get up when she heard this, and said lightly: "It's not a whole life, where do you have to be so troublesome, let's talk ......about it" Speaking of this, Luo Wanyan's voice couldn't help but lower, and said lightly: "I don't know where I am now." ”

Seeing this, the eldest princess of Huining sighed, patted Luo Huanyan's hand, and said softly: "I know that you are worried about Brother Yun'er, but you are the grandmother in charge of this mansion, if you are all down, who will be able to support this Jinxiang Hou Mansion? Could it be that you are counting on me, an old woman?"

Speaking of this, the eldest princess of Huining sighed deliberately, and said lightly: "If it was ten or eight years earlier, I would have been fine to support their brothers and sisters, but now my body is ......."

When Luo Huanyan heard this, she was shocked, and hurriedly smiled: "Grandmother, don't say that, you are in good health!"

Mama Cui also smiled: "Your Highness feels sorry for the young lady, and she doesn't have to let herself curse herself for saying such things." The young lady is the most filial, and I don't know how sad I am at this time, isn't your kindness in vain. ”

The eldest princess of Huining glanced at Cui Mama angrily, and Cui Mama immediately shut up, but Luo Wanyan said: "Isn't that what Mama said? Grandmother said this, but she was tormented by her granddaughter-in-law, and when she came back, she knew how to complain about her granddaughter-in-law." ”

After speaking, seeing the appearance of the eldest princess Huining lowering her eyes and saying nothing, Luo Huanyan sighed silently, and said with a reluctant smile: "Grandmother, don't be angry, what do you say about your granddaughter-in-law." ”

As soon as the words fell, the eldest princess of Huining turned her head to look at it, raised her eyebrows and smiled: "In this case, I took advantage of the excitement in your birthday mansion to invite everyone who should be invited." ”

Luo Wanyan nodded when she heard this, and was about to speak, but she heard the eldest princess Huining smile and said, "Don't you want to find something to do for Sister Zhi'er?" You are pregnant now, just let her prepare for you, you follow the side and look at it and give some pointers by the way." ”

Seeing this, Mama Cui couldn't help but smile and interjected: "Your Highness really feels sorry for the young lady, and if you want to hold a birthday banquet for the young lady, you have to instruct the young lady." ”

As soon as the words fell, Jing Zhi walked in, Luo Wanyan got up and was about to step forward, Jing Zhi couldn't help but take two quick steps to hold her arm, and asked with a smile, "What does my grandmother want to tell me to do?"

Cui Mama couldn't help but learn Fang Cai's words with Jing Zhi again, Jing Zhi nodded when she heard this, and then discussed the list of invitations with Luo Huanyan, and the eldest princess of Huining sat aside and added two sentences from time to time.

After the Double Ninth Festival, the weather was getting cooler day by day, but there was no news of Jingyun, and the group seemed to disappear out of thin air...... Even the Marquis of Jinxiang did not find the slightest trace or clue.

Although everyone in the house is becoming more and more depressed, Luo Huanyan's birthday is being prepared in an orderly manner.

On September 16, the troupe has been invited, the menu has been drawn up, the invitations have been sent out, and the return gifts to the grandmothers and ladies have been prepared.

The little man guarding the door naturally recognized Luo Jizong, and when he saw Luo Jizong turn over and get off the horse, he hurriedly stepped forward to salute, and while taking the reins of the horse, he smiled and said: "Why did Young Master Luo come over here, the little one is ......."

Before he finished speaking, Luo Jizong interrupted: "Hurry up and go to my sister, I said that my aunt is coming to Beijing, and I am afraid that I will enter the city in a while." ”

The two little guys glanced at each other when they heard this, and passed Luo Jizong's words in their hearts two or three times before they suddenly came back to their senses, one left behind to lead Luo Jizong's horse, and the other hurriedly ran to the house, and after a while, the big housekeeper came out with a few small servants.

The chief butler stepped forward and saluted: "The young master of the in-law family, please come in, I have already sent someone to tell the young lady, you can use tea in the hall first." ”

Luo Jizong has heard Luo Huanyan say more than once that the big housekeeper is an old man who follows the Marquis of Jinxiang, and his status in the mansion is similar to that of the big housekeeper Du in his own house, and he does not dare to accept the courtesy of the big housekeeper.

Luo Jizong hurriedly turned sideways and said: "The old housekeeper doesn't have to be polite, I just received the letter, my aunt came to visit my sister from Jiangning in Beijing, I am afraid that I am going to enter the city, I have already notified my father, and I am afraid that my father will also come over after a while." I'm here to inform my sister so I can prepare. ”

Hearing this, Sedum nodded, and instructed the little maid beside him: "Go, let the second housekeeper bring someone to greet him, and tell the young grandmother the words of the young master of the in-laws word for word." ”

As the chief butler was talking, he saw a young man in brocade riding a horse and escorting seven or eight carriages around the corner of the street, slowly driving towards the gate of the mansion......

The young man who rode the horse and guarded the carriage had been to the mansion more than once, and not only did the two gatekeepers know each other, but even the big housekeeper also knew that it was the cousin of his young lady, the fourth young master of the imperial merchant Shen family-Shen Kun.
