The invitation was sent by Xu Ling'er, saying that she had held a chrysanthemum banquet and invited Gao Linhua to go with her. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Ordinary people may be so excited if they receive such a post, but Gao Linhua can't be happy.
She held the white porcelain tea bowl in her hand tightly, and her expression kept changing.
Gao Linyu hurriedly ran in, "Sister, sister, I heard that Miss Xu gave you a post, can I go with you?" I didn't go last time, I still want to say hello to the old lady of Weiguo!"
A pair of watery eyes sparkled and bright, so people couldn't help but refuse, in fact, Gao Linhua didn't refuse either!
She couldn't avoid it if she wanted to, Gao Linling still wanted to step forward, how could she stop it? Anyway, it was Gao Linyu's face that would be lost at that time, not hers.
She is the eldest daughter who lost her mother, and her marriage will be very difficult, and she is not afraid of being affected by Gao Lin.
With Gao Linhua's letter, the Wang family put aside the matter of cleaning up the house, and wholeheartedly prepared for Gao Linhua.
By the way, he also helped Gao Linhua buy a set of clothes and headdresses.
Gao Linhua can understand Wang's mood, although Gao Linhua is still young, but this is the first time they have appeared in front of the noble lady of Jingshi, so naturally they can't be careless.
Gao Linhua didn't care about Wang's perfunctory treatment of her at all, because many things were doomed to the end before they even started.
But Gao Linhua forgot that there are always many, many ...... in this world Accidentally.
The Duke of Wei has a pivotal position in the government and the opposition, and the residence of the Duke of Wei is also the first in Beijing.
At the time of the founding of the country, Duke Wei directly occupied the mansion of a prince of the previous dynasty, and it is said that the original mansion was as luxurious as the palace.
Later, the population of the Weiguo Mansion continued to increase, and they also continued to buy the surrounding houses and land to expand, and several streets around it belonged to the Xu family.
However, with the change of time, the original luxurious mansion has also continued to settle down, becoming simple and charming.
Gao Linhua led Gao Linyu to stand at the gate of the Weiguo Mansion for a while, and then went in with the greeting person.
Gao Linyu nervously pulled the corner of her clothes, no matter how happy she was before she came, when she arrived at the door, she still couldn't help but be nervous, she was still a child after all.
She thought, if she hadn't been reborn, she would be like Gao Lin, right?
"Don't be afraid, even if you eat people, you can't die. ”
"Poof", a chuckle came from behind Gao Linhua, causing her to subconsciously turn around.
It was a girl in a riding shooting suit, two or three years older than her, with a comforting smile on the corner of her mouth at the moment.
She held the reins in her hand, and behind her was a very docile-looking little red marre, which had a heroic taste.
Gao Linhua's strength in pulling Gao Linhua became stronger and stronger, she was already frightened by Gao Linhua's words, and when she saw the girl leading the horse alone, her face was already white.
"Sister, let's go, that horse is so scary!"
Hearing Gao Linhua's urging, Gao Linhua gave a blessing to the girl,
"This sister, hello, my name is Gao Linhua, this is my sister Gao Linyu, our father is Gao Jingsheng, the waiter of the Ministry of Works, my sister is afraid of horses, so we went in first. ”
The girl raised her eyebrows, with scrutiny in her eyes, "The waiter of the Ministry of Works?"
Gao Linhua nodded, didn't say much to the woman, and found an opportunity to go in first.
"It's fun, it's fun. ”
After following Gao Linhua for a long time, Gao Linhua came to her senses and asked weakly, "Sister, what's wrong with Daddy's position?"
Gao Linhua shook her head, a hint of mockery rising at the corner of her mouth.
There is no problem with her father's position, they are the one who has the problem. This should not be the place where the daughter of a four-grade official should come at all.
Gao Linling wanted to ask again, but her eyes suddenly fixed on one place and couldn't move away.
It was a row of vine-woven flower stands, on which were placed more than a dozen pots of various chrysanthemums, including black chrysanthemum, phoenix Zhenyu, green peony, West Lake willow moon......
All kinds of chrysanthemums are beautiful, any pot is placed outside, there are people scrambling to want it, but in the Weiguo Mansion, it is just placed on a flower stand at random.
The girl who led the way saw Gao Lin's eyes nailed to those chrysanthemums and said, a trace of contempt flashed in her eyes,
"Two young ladies, the chrysanthemum feast is about to begin. ”
Gao Linhua took Gao Linyu's hand and smiled lightly, "The tired girl led the way." ”
Gao Linhua still wanted to take a closer look at those flowers, but was pulled away by Gao Linhua, and was about to speak, but Gao Linhua approached her ear first,
"Don't forget why the hell you're here!"
Gao Linyu pouted in annoyance, they hadn't seen Xu Ling'er yet!
I could see the guests who came to participate in the chrysanthemum banquet from a distance, and the girl who led the way turned around and retreated, and Gao Linhua's face was a little white.
"Sister, let's go and meet Miss Xu, I heard my mother say that she is the real proud daughter of Jingshi. ”
Gao Lin's eyes were full of admiration, and Gao Linhua sneered in her heart.
They don't seem to be giving them this opportunity!
This can't help but remind Gao Linhua of the incident at the wharf of Changzhou Mansion, at that time, Xu Linger was showing favor for no reason?
Now that they have been invited, who is it for?
"Hehe, it's really funny, this girl is too cute, right?" Someone approached Gao Linyu and pinched her little face,
"Little one, we were brought here, but we were not welcomed, and the real nobles were all enjoying the flowers together in the conservatory! We could see them, but we couldn't get close to them!"
Gao Lin was so angry that tears were about to fall, "You are talking nonsense, my sister is obviously ......"
"Sister Mao!" a glance swept over, Gao Linling immediately died down, not daring to be presumptuous.
Before leaving, her father had explained that if she didn't listen to her sister, she wouldn't want to play in the future.
Over there, Gao Linhua chatted with the girl, and when she learned about Gao Jingsheng's position, the other party was stunned for a while.
Then he said slowly, "I heard that if you don't enter the third grade, you won't get started, and the Weiguo Mansion will not invite the family members of officials below the third grade, no matter how big or small the banquet is." ”
After speaking, he also looked at Gao Linhua and the two with strange eyes, which was not despised, but simply curious.
Gao Linhua's face was full of bitterness!
If you don't enter the three products and don't get started, the threshold of Weiguo Mansion will always be so high, in her previous life, she only had the opportunity to come twice after she got married, but she was also a marginal character, adding to the excitement.
At this moment, a girl full of grace stepped forward,
"Miss Gao, our young lady is invited, please come with me!"
Suddenly, the people in the entire courtyard swept towards Gao Linhua with their eyes, questioning, curious, envious, and jealous......
They didn't know that Gao Linhua, who should have been excited, had blue tendons on his sleeves!
