The second aunt walked away, and everyone experienced such a farce, and they didn't want to stay anymore, so they dispersed after a few words of greeting. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Yuan Jinyu took the two maids back to his yard and asked Ginkgo to take a little silver and send it to the second aunt.
Ginkgo was puzzled, holding the purse, with an uneven look on her face: "Miss, they deceived your medicinal herbs, and you found out, how can you still be willing to help such a person?"
Yuan Jinyu sat under the lamp, holding a book in his hand, and his face was calm. "I demolish them today, but I hope they won't take people like this in the future. As for sending silver money, I can't bear to see Yuan Cuiyu like that after all. ā
Yuan Cuiyu was pushed down the Weishui by herself, and now she has to take care of Yuan Cuiyu to some extent. Not giving medicinal herbs and giving money are two different things.
Yin Xing wanted to say something, but seeing Yuan Jinyu's resolute attitude, he had to pout his lips and send the silver money to the second room.
When he came back, he also brought a message, saying that Xiangye had returned to Cui's courtyard tonight.
Yuan Jinyu couldn't help but be a little worried about Aunt Lin: "What about Aunt Lin?"
Ginkgo shook her head and replied truthfully: "The slave doesn't know what is going on on Aunt Lin's side, but the courtyard is very quiet, and Aunt Lin is at least not crying." ā
Hongye picked the wick, and prepared hot water for Yuan Jinyu, and then said with some worry: "The Prime Minister's Mansion poured two aunts this time, if Miss's guess is true, there is someone else behind the scenes...... I don't know who that man's next target will become. ā
Red leaves are worried, this matter, no matter how you look at it, it feels like it is coming for Yuan Jinyu.
Yuan Jinyu can't be sure who that person is now, compared to Hongye's worry about herself, she always feels that the matter between Aunt Lin and Aunt Li will not end easily.
However, if that person didn't make a move, Yuan Jinyu couldn't find a flaw, so he could only wait and see what happened.
In the next few days, Yuan Jinyu's life did not change much, but she went to Aunt Lin every day to sit and enlighten her.
mentioned that Xiangye moved back to Cui's yard, although Aunt Lin was lonely on her face, she was not angry. It was only after Yuan Jinyu went a few times that she heard her blushing and mentioning it, saying that after the night of Xiangye, he would come here to take a look and then leave.
Yuan Jinyu couldn't help but smile secretly in her heart, daring to move back was just a pretense, and her heart was still hanging on Aunt Lin's place.
In a blink of an eye, it was the Dragon Boat Festival on the fifth day of the fifth month of May.
The Mid-Autumn Festival wants to admire the moon, so it is to enter the palace at night, and the Dragon Boat Festival has many other customs, and the palace oracle announced that they would enter the palace after breakfast.
However, the formal palace banquet was still held in the evening, and during the day, these nobles accompanied the nobles in the palace.
Yuan Jinyu got up early to freshen up, changed into the goose-yellow new clothes, and asked Ginkgo to outline a light makeup for her, seeing that the sun was just right today, she thought it would get hot at noon, and asked Ginkgo to prepare a fan for her.
The time when she went out was very accurate, Cui Shi sat in the car, thinking about the advice of the prime minister last night, but still softened his voice: "It's not the first time you have entered the palace, can you still remember the rules after entering the palace? ā
Yuan Jinyu got off one by one and sat on the side of the carriage, his body upright.
In the past, when I entered the palace, I would be followed by a Yuan Xiuyu who found fault everywhere, and since Yuan Xiuyu got married, Yuan Jinyu's ears have been much cleaner.
Cui's dress today is very graceful and luxurious, and he has carefully combed his makeup. But when she saw Yuan Jinyu's cheeks with light makeup, she still turned her head a little resentfully.
Yuan Jinyu didn't speculate about Cui's thoughts, just sat quietly in the carriage, passed the noon gate, changed into a sedan chair and walked for a while, and then walked to the imperial garden.
At this moment, there are already a lot of women in the imperial garden, everyone brings their own daughters, and as for the other county lords, there are also many county lords. Now is the time when the grass is abundant, and the imperial garden is tended by a special person all year round, and the flowers continue to bloom in all seasons.
At this moment, the nobles were sitting on the floor in the imperial garden, with a small table in front of them, on which were mostly pastries and fruit wine.
The Imperial Garden covers a huge area, and Yuan Jinyu has been here a few times, but he has not visited it thoroughly, especially this one.
At this moment, looking at the flowers in his eyes, and the brightly dressed women, the whole imperial garden seemed to be lively.
When Yuan Jinyu and Cui's arrived, everyone who was still talking and laughing stood up and greeted Cui's.
She is also a first-class lady of Haoming, and she is also the wife of the prime minister, although she is followed by the concubine of the prime minister's mansion at this moment, she is the county lord canonized by the emperor himself.
Yuan Jinyu is very beautiful, even if she is a person who has seen her before, when she sees her for the second time, there is still a look of surprise in her eyes.
Yuan Jinyu saluted them one by one, the salute was thorough, and the title was not bad.
Even those who want to find fault with them can't find fault at all.
Madame Jiang also stepped forward at this time, and glanced at Yuan Cuiyu, her eyes were obscure.
His Royal Highness Duan Wang's thoughts on Yuan Jinyu didn't know about the Cui family, and Madame Jiang would not take the initiative to speak. Now King Duan still needs their Jiang family, and Mrs. Jiang is not afraid of Yuan Jinyu.
But if King Duan still has half a sense of reason, he will not fall out with their Jiang family because of a Yuan Jinyu.
So the coldness she had towards Yuan Jinyu before turned into a gentle smile at this time, and she was talking to Cui's family, and Cui's wanted to call her a sister.
"I haven't seen it for so long, and Jinyu's appearance is getting more and more beautiful. "Madame Jiang praised Yuan Jinyu, if it weren't for Yuan Jinyu's understanding of the trajectory of the previous life, knowing how much Princess Duan and Madame Jiang hated herself after King Duan fell in love with her, she would really believe that she was simply an elder's kindness to her.
Cui Shi responded with a smile: "She looks good, but her temperament is stubborn, you can't boast too much, beware of her happy God." ā
Cui's words didn't mean to belittle Yuan Jinyu, after all, others praised their children outside, where did they talk big and praise.
Mrs. Jiang is still tentative: "Jinyu's sister-in-law is also married, Jinyu is fourteen this year, I don't know if the family matter has been decided?"
Yuan Jinyu lowered his head at the right time and pretended to be shy.
She was still guessing just now, but now she can be sure that Princess Duan must have a showdown with Mrs. Jiang, otherwise she would not have tested the Cui family so much.
The partial Sheng Cui family couldn't think of that layer, but smiled and said: "Xiuyu and Jinyu are both treasures in my heart, Xiuyu married too early, I, I wish Jinyu could accompany me for two more years." As for Jinyu's marriage, there is Xiangye to help the staff. ā
Yuan Jinyu pulled Cui's sleeve at the right time, and Cui's immediately covered his mouth and scolded lightly: "Yo, yo, you are still shy when you look at the child, let's not talk about it, Jinyu is thin-skinned, haha." ā
Mrs. Jiang looked at Yuan Jinyu thoughtfully for a while, and finally revealed the stubble, but Yuan Jinyu knew that she had not let down her guard against herself. Now that his marriage has not been decided, no one knows what will happen in the future, and today's Dragon Boat Banquet will not be peaceful.
There are a lot of women in the imperial garden, and even more so the daughters, Cui Shi pulled Yuan Jinyu to greet many women, and asked her to find those ladies to play with.
Yuan Jinyu can't integrate into their circle, even though he has now been named the county lord, in their eyes, he is still a complete little girl, and his appearance and talent, in their opinion, are just a means to curry favor with nobles.
Therefore, Yuan Jinyu, who was taken away, was just enjoying the flowers alone on the side, thinking that he didn't know when he would be able to see King Ning today.
Some concubines stepped forward to talk to Yuan Jinyu, and Yuan Jinyu's attitude was gentle, neither humble nor arrogant, which made many people change their opinion of her.
After admiring the flowers for a while, the nobles in the court finally came. Walking in the forefront, it is the queen mother, Shen Guifei, Concubine De, Concubine Li, Shuyi Niangniang, Yuan Xiuyi followed behind the queen, and after that, there was the crown princess, Princess Duan, Princess Chu Yuan Xiuyu and Wu Wan'er.
Princess Rui's body is not as good as day by day, so she did not enter the palace for the banquet. As for the other princes, they have not yet married their wives. Mu Ze has reached the age, but he is not close to women, and he has no intention of getting married when he is stationed on the frontier all the year round, and the emperor feels guilty about him, so he has not forced him.
Yuan Jinyu stood at the back of the crowd, dressed in goose-yellow clothes that were not conspicuous. Looking at Yuan Xiuyu through the crowd, she was dressed in a better grade than the concubine of the Prime Minister's house, and the jewelry she wore was all priceless.
However, he is young, even if he wears luxurious clothes and makeup, he still can't compare to the momentum of Shen Guifei or Concubine De, but he is shown as a foil by the two of them.
Wu Wan'er is dressed up much fresher and more refined than Yuan Xiuyu, wearing a white gauze skirt, and only wearing two hostas on her head, raising her hand slightly can reveal a piece of Hao's wrist, and the bracelet on it is an excellent jade with a water head.
Yuan Jinyu reached out and touched the accessories on her wrist, it was still the bracelet that Mu Ze brought back to her from the frontier before, and after she put it on, she was reluctant to take it off.
The maid in the imperial garden saw the queen mother with the concubine and the princess, and they all saluted respectfully, and Yuan Jinyu was also in order, and waited until the queen said that she was exempt from courtesy, and then lowered her head slightly and stood up straight.
With these people there, the people present were even more restrained, Yuan Jinyu glanced around, and found that Yuan Xiuyu didn't say a few words of greeting to others, so she came to Cui's front, and Wu Wan'er also followed closely behind the queen.
Yuan Xiuyi happened to see Yuan Jinyu at this time, waved his hand at her, and motioned for her to go to his side.
It was really embarrassing to be hung in place, Yuan Jinyu didn't think too much, lifted the skirt and walked over, and then sat next to Yuan Xiuyi.
Yuan Xiuyi looked at Yuan Jinyu's dress today, and was slightly dissatisfied: "Jinyu's body is too plain, it should be more festive." ā
After all, she is the only county lord in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and her status is much higher than those nobles in the capital.
