Yi Ying is anxiously directing all over the mansion at the moment.

Last night there had been a sudden heavy rain, and many parts of the house were flooded, so in order to prevent the guests from slipping or getting their shoes wet, she had to temporarily have the servants spread elaborate straw mats on the corners and steps of the corridor.

Due to the large number of guests invited, every little thing has become a huge project. A large number of people are needed on the main gate, on the second door, outside the kitchen, the garden, and the living room, so even if Min Yuan borrowed a few powerful grandmothers from the palace, and Xue Minglin, who had been born for a long time, also came out to help, he was still too busy to touch the ground.

So I just casually asked Yiying to help entertain guests, but now it has become a fact.

After dealing with the straw mat, Yiying rushed to the big flower hall to greet the guests.

The guests invited this time are very wide, and the princes and princes who have always been close to each other naturally sent a lot of invitations, and the emperor heard that his sister was going to hold a big banquet and secretly instructed her, so that she invited all the family members of the officials who overturned the case this time, and it was the royal appeasement policy, and then there were people with good family backgrounds and girls of appropriate age, which was also the theme of this banquet, and some were the people who Yiying temporarily invited according to the experience of his previous life, Min Yuan didn't say anything when he saw it, he just thought that Yiying had some friendship with them.

When they arrived at the flower hall, Min Yuan and the British Duchess Liu had already met back, laughing and chatting.

The Liu family and Min Yuan can be regarded as handkerchiefs who grew up together since childhood, and the Liu family is also a famous scholarly family in the capital. It's just that in recent years, because of the sensitivity of political opinions, the two families have not met much, but now that Li Yun has changed, and the situation on the Xue family's side is gradually becoming clearer, they will not shy away from this.

Therefore, when the Liu family saw her, he also called her to his side with a smile, and praised: "I haven't seen her for more than ten days, Zhaoyuan seems to have been born more beautifully, and I don't know what kind of family has the blessing to marry her back." ”

Yi Ying couldn't help but look at her own dress when she heard this. Since the day of Halloween, her mother has not allowed her to dress so plain again, and today she is wearing a peach-colored dress, which is very conspicuous.

Min Yuan listened a little moved, and asked quietly, "Is Brother Ting'er here today?"

Zhou Ting, the only son of the British Duchess and Lady Liu, seemed to be sick and couldn't be present at the last Halloween Day.

Liu replied with a smile: "Here, I should be with Brother Cheng in the outer courtyard at this time." His eyes were fixed on Yiying.

Because Xue Wenfu was not at home, Licheng was young after all, and he was afraid that he would not treat his elders well, so this time he only invited female dependents and teenagers of his generation, and asked him to wait at the gate.

When Min Yuan heard this, he lost his energy, and complained: "It would be nice if my kid was as obedient as Brother Ting'er, but it's really uncomfortable!"

After all, there was a quarrel, although Licheng didn't mention it again for some reasons, but the gap between mother and son already existed.

"What's the matter?, mother and son are bickering?" Liu smiled and said strangely: "I remember that your mother-son relationship is not very good?" In the patrilineal clan, because men are usually taught by their fathers, discord between mother and son is not uncommon, and it is the same in the elite circle.

"It's just so good that I spoiled that bastard boy...... Min Yuan sighed and waved his hand: "That's it, it's a good day today, don't mention this." ”

As he was talking, Yihua also came over with Chunhe: "Sister Liu came early. She greeted Ryu with a smile.

Yihua has always been a delicate person, and she was originally only called a British duchess, but now seeing that Li Yun seems to be on the rise, she quietly gets close to the Liu family.

Liu's face did not show the slightest, and he also talked to her affectionately.

When Chunhe saw her, he winked at her, and after saluting the elders, he came over and took her hand: "Let's go sit elsewhere." ”

Yiying smiled, called a maid over, and whispered: "It's not possible today, I'm the owner, you follow this girl to Baizhitang over there and sit down first, and the ladies will go over there in a while." ”

Chunhe smiled and glanced at her: "It's like a little adult." Then he followed the maid away.

But isn't it, Yiying wiped the fine sweat on her hands, I am actually much better than you.

Gradually, Princess Feng, Mrs. Wu'anhou, Chonghua and others also arrived, Yiying was saluting with them elders, and while smiling and sending maids to lead the ladies to Baizhitang, after a while, she felt numb legs and sore faces.

I couldn't help but sigh secretly.

What kind of world is it that I saw in my previous life...... I don't think I've ever greeted a guest like this before...... Thinking about it this way, when the time comes, when I marry into a prince's family, it may be a tricky matter to manage the food and clothing of a large family, and I don't know how the lady in Lian Jingqian's previous life was raised as a merchant girl, how could she be so comfortable......

As soon as these thoughts came to her mind, she noticed a woman wearing a white fox fur and a goose-yellow dress walking towards her.

She was stunned, and when she came back to her senses, she greeted her with a smile: "This is the county lord of Fengning, right?"

Jiang Lianjia glanced at her in surprise, in this life, they didn't seem to have met yet. Although, she didn't know why the fate of the person in front of her was so different from her previous life......

"The maid has come to report. Seeing that she was suspicious, she casually explained.

Jiang Lianjia nodded, and bowed to her calmly: "I've seen the county lord of Zhaoyuan." ”

Seeing her, Yiying only felt close and grateful, so she hurriedly helped her up and took her in to greet the royal relatives in a room.

Min Yuan saw a girl with an unfamiliar face come in and cast a puzzled look at Yi Ying.

"Mother, this is the only daughter of Jiang Shilang when the emperor was there, Jiang Lianjia, the former son has been named the lord of Fengning County by the emperor. She explained with a smile.

All at once the people understood.

It's the descendant of the official whose case was just overturned.

"When Jiang Shilang was here, he was also a minister of the humerus of the imperial court. Liu sighed with emotion, looking at the little girl in front of him, there was a bit of pity in his eyes.

The people present more or less knew the bullish temper and dared to speak out, and the squire who dared to speak out about the saints also praised a few words, but they didn't even mean to give a greeting gift.

After all, the old people have passed away, and the little girl in front of them is already alone, except for the pitiful mercy of the saint, but there is nothing left, which is no longer enough for them to spend any thoughts.

Yi Ying looked a little uncomfortable in her eyes, and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, the county lord of Fengning is still the cousin of the current Ding'an Gong." ”

Some people don't know about this layer, and they are a little surprised, but those who know don't pay much attention to it. They are all relatives of the grandmother's generation, and where can they get close, and the future of Ding'an Gong himself may not be bright, and he only hears it as an anecdote.

"County Lord, I don't know where the ladies are sitting, why haven't you seen any of them?" Jiang Lianjia smiled and spoke, but the smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes.

Yiying came back to her senses, and felt a little guilty that embarrassed her, so she hurriedly sent a maid to send her.

When they were separated, she only felt that the other party's smile was so cold that people didn't dare to approach.
