The Xishan Plum Blossom Banquet held by the Duchess of Xinguo did not make everyone wait too long. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

It snowed for three days, and as soon as I saw the meaning of the sunny day, the invitation to the banquet was delivered to the waiter's mansion as promised.

The invitation invited An and the four girls in the family to go to the plum garden of the prince of Nishiyama Shinkoku.

An was still hesitant to take Yuxuan, but his body couldn't stand it.

Yujing persuaded: "You can't lock your sister in the house because of occasional dizziness, right?" The four girls of our family that the Duchess clearly wrote. Why is everyone in the next room qualified to go, but the mother's biological daughter is bored at home? ”

An's was also reluctant to keep Yuxuan in lockdown, but he listened to what Yujing said ugly, and said with a calm face: "What is the next room and not the next room!" You remember for me, they are all girls from the Jiang family, one is prosperous and the other is lost, don't make any crooked ideas! ”

Yujing remembered that last time Yuxuan was calculated and fell into the silt pond, she rolled her eyes: "Mother, don't tell me this, I know this truth, I'm afraid that some people don't know." ”

Hearing what she said, Ahn asked, "What do you mean?" Someone has done something to disgrace? ”

Yujing hurriedly said: "No." It's just that I'm not convinced, why did my mother only train me, why didn't she pull Jiang Yufang and Jiang Yuqian out to talk about it. ”

An was angry: "I said what people do, they honestly stay in the backyard every day." It's you, who talk to me all day long! I don't discipline you, who do you discipline? Also, that's your eldest sister and second sister, don't call Jiang Yuqian and Jiang Yufang all day long! ”

Seeing that she was going to be angry again, Yujing remembered Yuxuan's usual persuasion, and endured it: "Mother, don't be angry, let's think about what clothes we wore and what jewelry we wore that day!" The girls are all well-dressed, and I can't afford to lose your people. ”

An Shi laughed angrily, and said to Mama Tian: "Listen, this is trying to pick things out of my hands, are you not dressed exquisitely?" Did I feed all the clothes and jewelry I made for you every season to the dogs? Little thing with no conscience!"

Although he said this, An still ordered someone to invite the tailor of Xiangyun Pavilion to come to the door to measure the figure of the young ladies and make new clothes, and ordered someone to draw the style of jewelry according to the characteristics of each young lady and send it to the gold shop to build.

It's time to go to the plum garden.

When An took them to the Xishan Plum Garden, there was already a long queue of carriages at the door, waiting for the subordinates of the Xinguo Mansion to lead them one by one.

A woman who looked like a maid with a blue collar and a long skirt walked over, glanced at An and the others slightly, and asked with a smile: "But Mrs. An, the head of the household, and Miss Fushang?" ”

An said: "Exactly. ”

The maid smiled: "Madame, Miss, please come with me, my wife is already waiting in the flower hall." ”

An Shi hurriedly said: "Hello girl" said and glanced at Mama Tian.

Mama Tian took a purse from her cuff and stepped forward to stuff it into the maid.

The maid took it with a smile, and ordered someone to drive the carriage of the Shilang's Mansion to the back stable, and then led An Shi and the others into the plum garden.

As soon as you enter the plum garden, a wisp of fragrance rushes to your face, stretching long, straight into the heart and spleen, but you don't see a plum blossom.

Walked a few steps further, gradually to the north, flat and wide, only to see some buildings faintly appear in the col and tree branches, and the pavilions and pavilions of red bricks and green tiles suddenly appeared under the silver covering, and they were very good-looking.

Yufang followed Yuqian closely, her eyes looked around, only Yujing and Yuxuan followed An Shi without squinting and walked forward steadily, and the blue-clothed maid looked at it and nodded secretly.

Turn again, and the plum blossoms in the courtyard bloom in front of you.

Plum blossoms are embellished with jade, interspersed among strange stones, leaning on the side of the small bridge, lying on the edge of the snow scene, there are more old vines and ancient cypresses, ice sculpture wonders, making people feel like falling into a fairyland.

The maid brought people into the flower hall in the center of the plum garden, and as soon as she entered the room, the heat came to her face, and Yuxuan looked around quietly.

The flower hall is bright and elegant, and the windows are not painted with Korean paper, but precious glass from the West.

Yuxuan secretly said that this Xinguo Mansion is worthy of being a relative of the emperor, and such a valuable thing as glass is casually set on the window.

However, in this way, the flower hall is bright and warm, and it is really lovely.

The Duchess of Xinguo only wore a homely magenta jacket skirt, and a delicate green grass head was simply inserted on her head, and she sat firmly on it and talked to the eldest princess Mingli.

Although she is dressed simply, no one despises her, who doesn't know that she is the younger sister-in-law chosen by Queen Minghui, and she is very fond of her.

Duchess Xinguo raised her eyes and saw An Shi entering the door with four flower-like girls, and said with a smile: "Mrs. An is here?" Please be seated. ”

The maid took An to the second seat next to the right hand of the Duchess of Xinguo.

An Shi was stunned for a moment, and excused himself: "This is not right, right?" ”

Duchess Sheng smiled: "What's wrong?" You just have to sit down. ”

The eldest princess on the side also said: "If you want to sit down, you can sit down, sit closer to us, and be close to us." ”

An sat down with a smile, thinking that sure enough, everyone in Beijing was snobbish, and his own master had to spoil himself and treat him differently, so he would have to find a good family for his daughters in the future.

Duchess Xinguo glanced at the four girls behind An Shi a few times, and glanced at the maid beside her. The maid smiled and stepped forward with a tray and placed it in front of the four sisters.

There were four identical purses on the tray, and the drums were muttering, and Yuxuan and the others did not reach out to take them.

Duchess Xinguo smiled: "This is a meeting gift for you, accept it." ”

The four of them happily accepted it and thanked them.

Yujing has been in Beijing since she was a child, and she was bolder, and asked the eldest princess: "Why don't you see the county lord of Shuyang?" ”

The eldest princess said: "In the warm pavilion, you can go too, the young girls have something to say when they get together." ”

Yujing led Yuxuan, Yuqian, and Yufang to say goodbye and went to the warm pavilion next to them.

As soon as I entered, I heard Shuyang's loud laughter, Yuxuan looked over, and the county lord of Shuyang and a bright girl dressed similarly didn't know what to say, and smiled happily.

Yujing walked over: "What are you laughing at?" He squatted to the girl beside Shuyang again: "Lord Yuyang." ”

Shuyang saw Yujing coming, and pulled her over: "It's a pity that Sister Ying didn't come, and she also came to listen to my cousin's troubles." ”

Yuyang also smiled: "Don't you dare to be known by Sister Ying, in the future, she will be a family with my brother, if I tell my brother, will I still live?" ”

Yujing became interested and leaned over: "Tell me, I won't tell her." ”

The three of them got together over there, and when Yufang saw Shuyang a little timid, and heard something from the county lord, she didn't dare to go up, so she only pulled Yuqian to sit in the corner.

Yuxuan saw that her sister met her friend and really threw herself aside, she was very helpless, she didn't know her when she looked around, she couldn't help but be a little discouraged, and she still leaned towards Yujing and them.

Before she got closer, a girl with a round face and pink clothes walked into the warm pavilion, first looked around, as if she didn't find any acquaintances, and was about to withdraw, when she turned her head and saw Yuxuan, who was also alone, her eyes lit up: "That little girl with a long purple jacket, come here." ”

Yuxuan listened, looked at herself and looked at the other party, and the girl in pink beckoned to her: "It's you!" ”

Yuxuan turned her head to look at Yujing, Yujing also heard it, and as soon as she looked up and saw someone coming, she opened her mouth and said, "Ding Lin, that's my sister!" ”

The girl who called Ding Lin lost interest when she heard it: "Who is rare!" As he spoke, he turned around and left.

Leaving Yuxuan standing there stupidly. Yujing stepped forward and pulled her to the county lord of Shuyang and the county lord of Yuyang to introduce: "I almost forgot." This is my sister Jiang Yuxuan, who just returned to Beijing with her parents this year, haven't you seen each other yet? ”

Shuyang also said: "Cousin, you haven't seen Yujing's sister yet, you have a similar temper as us, you are the same age, just play." ”

Although Yuyang is the county lord, her personality is quite kind, she pulled Yujing to sit down: "Come and sit down, Sister Shuyang's friend is my friend." ”

Listen to Yujing again: "The one just now is Shoufu's granddaughter, and she can't play with us, so don't pay attention to her." ”

Shuyang smiled: "People are talented women, I'm afraid I can't look down on you." ”

Yuxuan listened and was curious: "Is she very talented?" ”

Shuyang explained: "That's not it, as soon as I came, I dragged a group of young ladies to compete for some talents, and I didn't like to take care of us, as if we were all rough people."
