249 Mid-Autumn Festival
Qiu Ci guessed like this in his heart, but he didn't say it in the end. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ ο½ο½fo
A few days have passed, and the Mid-Autumn Festival is closer.
Song Yu didn't come to her during this time, and she didn't deliberately go to Song Yu, because she knew that if Song Yu wanted to look for her, she would naturally come to find her; If Song Yu doesn't come, it means that he has official business and can't spare time.
August 15 is a big festival, and the Great Zhou Dynasty will hold a Mid-Autumn Festival banquet every year.
In previous years, every noble family will try their best to be lively, there have been several years when the queen came forward, and the eldest princess of Chengyang assisted from the side, and the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet on August 15 was enjoyed by the guests and hosts, and everyone praised it.
But this year, when the prince happened, no one dared to mention it anymore.
The so-called Mid-Autumn Festival banquet is probably just a show, so that it doesn't make people feel too lonely.
When Qiu Ci received the post of the eldest princess of Chengyang, he was still a little incredulous.
"After so many things, is the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet still held?" Mei Kexin is also very strange, although she is just a woman, she also knows that this year's situation is special, and she thought that this Mid-Autumn Festival banquet would be canceled.
"Probably for Chong Chongxi." Qiu Ci said, "There are too many bad things, and they also need to be celebrated." β
Mei Ke thought so.
"It's fine." She nodded, "Where is it going to be held this year?" β
"Baihualou." Qiu Ci said, "It is said that it is to enjoy the autumn and the chrysanthemums and the moon, which is perfect in Baihualou." β
Baihualou is not a building, but a place where the royal family specially planted flowers and plants, and there are tens of thousands of precious flowers and plants planted in it, and all kinds of flowers and plants are transported from various places and are guarded by special personnel.
Qiu Ci has not entered Baihualou, but has only occasionally heard people mention it.
The area of Baihualou is about dozens of acres, the pavilions and pavilions inside are scattered, the small bridge flows through the north and south, there is a lake in the south, this lake is far away from the main gate of the palace, so it is also called "Wanglong Lake".
"Baihualou?" Mei Kexin was not surprised, "I remember that I went there once that year, and it was indeed a good place. β
"Really?" Qiu Ci looked at her with interest, waiting for her next step.
Mei Kexin looked at her and smiled and said, "Yes, that year was also the Mid-Autumn Festival, and my sister went with me." β
Now Mei Kexin's mentality is much better, and when she mentions her sister again, she won't always cry, which is probably the most gratifying thing about Qiu Ci.
"Since the eldest princess has invited you, you can go." Mei Ke thought for a while and said, "Song Shizi should also go." β
On such an occasion, it is not surprising that he went.
Qiu Ci nodded, "Okay, I'll see what I have to prepare." β
The eldest princess of Chengyang invited Qiu Ci to participate in the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, and it didn't take long for it to spread like the wind all over the Hou Mansion, and He Qiuxue also got the news.
It is impossible to say that you don't want to go, according to past experience, the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet is a good opportunity for Kyoto to make friends with a group of talented and beautiful people, and there are many good couples, all of whom have seen the right eye at the Mid-Autumn Festival, so they come together.
Now Qiu Ci has been engaged, but He Qiuxue has not been engaged! She didn't want to let go of such a great opportunity.
He Qiuxue thought about it, and went to Zhaoxian Pavilion to find the old lady.
The old lady was laughing with Pearl when she saw He Qiuxue walk in.
"Grandmother." He Qiuxue saluted obediently, and saw the old lady smiling happily, so she also smiled and asked, "What are you enjoying yourself?" Don't tell your granddaughter anything happy, let her granddaughter be happy too. β
The old lady smiled from ear to ear.
"You see, Sister Xue'er's mouth is sweet." She smiled, "Your third sister was invited by the eldest princess of Chengyang to go to Baihualou to attend the banquet in the Mid-Autumn Festival, isn't it a great joy." β
Pearl also smiled on the side and said, "Old lady, you have forgotten again, now the third lady is the future lady of the prince, and she is kind to the eldest princess, isn't it a matter of course." β
He Qiuxue understood that Pearl was helping Qiuzi, and at the same time, she was also reminding her.
Yes, she He Qiuci is now the future wife of the prince, and she is the life-saving benefactor of the eldest princess of Chengyang, who doesn't come to please her!
On the other hand, she not only lost her aunt, but was also forced by He Qiuci everywhere, she was really unwilling!
He Qiuxue's hand hidden under her sleeve was clenched tightly, but her face was smiling brightly.
"That's it, I'm really envious of others." She smiled, "The third sister is so lucky, if I can have half the luck of the third sister, I will be satisfied." β
Although the words were said with a smile, it was inevitable that there was loneliness in the tone.
The old lady also felt pity when she heard this.
"You are a girl from my Hou Mansion, how can you not have this luck? The girl in my Hou Mansion is a good one! The old lady said angrily, "Don't worry, I'm here, just call Ah Yuan and let her pick you up by the way!" β
He Qiuxue was overjoyed, "Really, grandmother?" Can you really pick me up? β
When the old lady saw her like this, she felt more and more pity.
She beckoned He Qiuxue to her, "Of course, can you still not believe what your grandmother said?" β
"Then the granddaughter thanked her grandmother first!" He Qiuxue was so happy that she didn't seem to know what to do, so she had to thank her vigorously.
"Silly boy." The old lady said, and asked the maid next to her to hurry up and find Qiu Ci.
At that time, Qiu Ci was replying to the post of the eldest princess of Chengyang, and she didn't expect that in just a while, it would be spread all over the house.
Ping'er hurried before the old lady's maid came over and told Qiu Ci about it.
"Miss, are you going to take the fourth miss again?" Ping'er pouted, "I have to give her ...... every time"
She was very dissatisfied.
Qinglan glared at her.
"Okay, well, when I didn't say it." Ping'er knew that she had said something that she shouldn't have said again, and after making a face at Qinglan, she obediently retreated.
Qiu Ci just smiled.
"Just pick her up, and there's nothing wrong with it." She said, "Just to say to the Prophet and the Princess." β
Qinglan has always complied unconditionally with Qiu Ci's decision, but she is still a little puzzled.
"Miss, can't you refuse the old lady?" Qinglan asked.
Qinglan feels that Miss's status is no longer what it used to be, now she is no longer the stupid fool she used to be, nor is she the little girl who was bullied, she is getting better and better now, and she is still the fiancΓ©e of Song Shizi, and she is also the life-saving benefactor of Princess Chengyang, she can completely refuse the old lady.
Qiu Ji smiled, and she shook her head.
"Why bother." She said, "She's just looking for a good family, so let her go." β
If He Qiuxue didn't do anything out of the ordinary and touched her bottom line, she would still be very magnanimous and didn't care.
