finally suffered until six o'clock, a table and a chair in the room were clearly visible, Wan Chunfang got up and rang the bell. It was Zhou's mother who fell asleep outside last night, and when she heard the bell ringing, she came in with a cardigan coat and said, "What does the fourth lady want, I'll get it for you." ”

Wanchun said: "I don't want anything, today is Miss Liu's birthday party, I was about to attend, you went to change Xiu'er, and asked her to pick out a dress for me and comb my hair." ”

Zhou's mother is also about forty years old, and she is already lazy, so she doesn't call herself to serve when she hears it, so she rushes out and calls Xiu'er to serve in the next room.

Wanchun opened the wardrobe, and although she asked Xiu'er to pick it up, she said: "You help me grow my eyes, how to dress it is not rude, and it will not steal the limelight of the birthday star." ”

Xiu'er's eyes were full of colorful satin clothes, and she looked confused for a while, rubbing her eyes and smiling: "Fourth Miss, you are very good at dressing up on weekdays, why did you ask me today?" Since it's Miss Liu's birthday party, naturally there are many young people, wouldn't those dresses be very good? ”

Wan Chun said: "I know it's good, but I'm not sure how good it is." According to you, which one should you wear? ”

After hearing this, Xiu'er stepped forward to check the wardrobe as if it were real or fake, picked out a white mesh knitted cutout dress, handed it to Wanchun and asked, "How about this one?" ”

Wan Chun hurriedly waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's not good, it's not good, if you go out to play, it's too frivolous to go to someone else's birthday." ”

"So, what about this one?" Xiu'er took out another sleeveless long-body cheongsam with Hunan concubine-colored satin print.

Wan Chun's eyes lit up, took it in his hand and looked at it, and then nodded and said, "This one is very good, it will neither be outstanding nor very simple." As he spoke, he saw an off-white hollow knitted short jacket hanging on the hanger in the cabinet, so he also took it down, compared the two, and asked Xiu'er: "Does it look good to wear like this?" ”

Xiu'er said with a smile: "It's very beautiful." ”

Wanchun changed into such a body, as usual, Xiu'er combed her hair, combed the bangs in front of her forehead with osmanthus oil, divided them in half on the left and right, took a pair of fancy hairpins and clamped them, and the rest of the curls were dipped in osmanthus oil and twisted into a few strands, hanging down at the back of her head like hemp rope, with the set of clothes on Wanchun's body, it was very Chinese and Western.

Even his mother Yu smiled when she saw it, Ji Yuan was even more proud, and secretly said to Wanchun: "Later, when I go to the Liu Mansion, we will give them a big surprise." ”

At the beginning, Wanchun didn't understand what he meant, and when he got into the car after breakfast, he remembered what Fanguangyao said about the school flower competition, presumably Ji Yuan couldn't get out of it, so he said: "This is Mi Siliu's birthday, not my birthday, don't come to trouble me." ”

Ji Yuan smiled, ignored her, and just kept himself happy.

The car drove for about half an hour and arrived in front of the Liu Mansion.

Before getting out of the car, Wanchun saw that the outside was full of cars as it was in Xiangshan Park. Because she and Yu came out to sit in her father Li Lanfeng's car, the messengers of the Liu Mansion had seen it, so they rushed forward to say hello and let their car go to the yard.

Wanchun helped Yu Shi get out of the car, and saw a two-story building with a combination of Chinese and Western styles sitting in the north and facing south, with blue brick and gray walls, a green glazed tile roof ridge on the top, and a black tube tile roof. In front of the house, crops such as pines and cypresses are planted all over the place, and the flowers and trees are really sparse and verdant.

Without waiting for her to finish reading, the well-dressed messenger led them to the living room, shouting as she walked: "Director Li, Mrs. Li, Third Young Master, Fourth Lady has arrived." ”

The two messengers standing outside the living room were busy passing the word inside, and after a while, they only heard the sound of fluttering footsteps in the room, and Wanchun and they arrived outside the door, and a group of people in the door greeted them like flowers, and said in unison: "Distinguished guest, distinguished guest, we have lost the distance to welcome." ”

Li Lanfeng and Yu Shi even said politely, and asked this group of people to take the stars into the living room.

Because it is the relationship between the birthday star, Liu Jingyu dressed up very much today, followed behind her parents to greet her, and the two families met, and they had to talk about the old days. Ji Yuan was afraid of impatience, so he had already avoided it and went to find his own friends, only Wanchun was still around the Yu family.

When Liu Siqing and his wife saw it, they smiled at Li Lanfeng and Yu: "This is the niece of the world, right?" I haven't seen her for many years, and she has become more and more watery, and how many people are not as good as her. ”

Li Lanfeng and Yu also laughed: "Don't praise her, she has been used to living at home for a long time, and she can't compare to your family's quiet language." ”

Everyone else echoed, some praised Jingyu, some complimented Wanchun, and even laughed and laughed.

Liu Jingyu and Wan Chun smiled and glanced at each other, and made a code, so the two of them came out of the adult pile hand in hand, went up to the balcony on the second floor, and whispered against the patina railing.

Wanchun presented the gift and specially repeated Jin Li's words, such a warm gesture was hard to resist, Liu Jingyu had to accept it with a smile: "The next time Mi Si He comes to Beijing, I will definitely invite her once to thank her for this kindness." ”

"Then I'll just see next time." Wan Chun said, just as he was looking for someone, he leaned over and looked downstairs, "Are all the guests here?" Looking at the battle outside, it was like a meeting of all nations, and your birthday was really magnificent. ”

"It's almost time to come." Liu Jingyu pouted and smiled, and snorted: "What is the grandeur at all, but on such occasions, fame and fortune disputes are always indispensable, and when you do such a birthday, you will understand." ”

Wanchun was noncommittal, her eyes only swirled in the crowd downstairs, Liu Jingyu waited, and when she didn't speak, she also leaned on the railing and looked down: "Miss Li, are you looking for someone?" ”

Wan Chun bit her lip and muttered for a while before saying, "You said that Zhao Chunmei and Dong Wuye would come that day, why didn't you see the two of them today?" ”

"Zhao Chunmei and Fifth Master Dong?"

Liu Jingyu swept her eyes, and hurriedly stretched out her hand and pointed to a small pavilion next to the rockery at the entrance and smiled: "Isn't that them?" It seems that my eldest brother and your brother Ji Yuan are also there. ”

Wan Chun took a closer look in the direction of Jing Yu's finger, because it was too far away, she only vaguely saw four or five figures, sitting or standing in the pavilion, and a few men in suits were undoubtedly men. There are two other women in red and yellow skirts, both of whom are sitting upright, and they can't see their faces clearly, so they don't know which one is Zhao Chunmei who they are looking for.

So she turned her mind, and also pointed in that direction and asked Jingyu, "Who is that one in red?" It's not like Miss Zhao Er. ”

Jing Yu looked at it carefully and said with a smile: "It's not very similar, but I can't tell that it's not her." If it weren't for her, then it would be Zhang Manyi, the sixth lady of the Presidential Palace. It's just that Man Yi is younger, and if he sees him in person, he can tell the difference. Why don't we go down and say hello to them? ”

Say hello? Wan Chun slowly exhaled the stuffiness in her chest, just looking at it from afar, she couldn't help but want to rush out and scold that woman, and ask her why she was so ruthless to destroy a family. If there was a conflict with her in front of Jingyu and Ji Yuan and others, how could she prevaricate?

Say that he is dead, and now he is just reborn, so he wants to find someone to take revenge? Or is it that he was entrusted with a dream, fought unevenly, and wanted to avenge Xie Yaxian's mother and daughter who died in vain?

That is really going to be written into the contemporary chatting about the strange, no one will believe her 'nonsense', presumably Ji Yuan should also go back to clarify the Yu family, saying that she is crazy.

She didn't want to see this result, what she wanted to destroy was Zhao Chunmei's life, not the life she exchanged for her life.

Stunned for no reason, Wan Chun shook his head and said: "I have never known them, so I went to say hello rashly, it's rude, let's talk about it after we meet and introduce you." ”

Jingyu smiled and nodded: "That's okay, their gang doesn't have rules to play, and I don't like to participate very much." ”

As he was talking, he unexpectedly remembered the sound of tom's footsteps, and a girl with long braids and a moon-white short coat and blue gray trousers ran upstairs, half-covered and half-hidden behind the door panel and shouted: "Second Miss, the lord and the wife asked you to go down to meet the guests." ”

Hearing this, Jing Yu's face turned a little helpless, shrugged his shoulders at Wan Chun, and replied in a loud voice: "Go and tell them that I am accompanying the fourth young lady, so I will go down." ”

The girl agreed, and ran back the same way again.

Wan Chun smiled and said: "Don't accompany me, you are the protagonist of today, as the birthday star, you should go out to entertain guests." I'll play here by myself for a while, and if my father and mother ask, tell them I'm upstairs. ”

Jingyu also knew that she had no time to spare, so she turned around and went into the house, picked out an original English book and a dictionary from the bookshelf, put it in Wanchun's hand and said: "This book was brought back to China by my eldest brother, if you are interested, you can flip through it." If it's too boring to be alone, almost all of the students in our class are sitting in the small living room downstairs, and you can also talk to them. ”

Wanchun nodded, and said that she didn't have to work for me, Jingyu thought that she had always loved Qingjing, so she didn't say anything more, and turned around to greet the guests.

Wan Chun watched her walk away, weighed the book in her hand, and went back to her place. She doesn't have the patience to read the original book against the dictionary, and the most important thing now is to find out the true face of Zhao Chunmei.

Glancing downstairs again, I don't know when, only the two girls were left sitting in the pavilion, Wanchun took a deep breath, and also turned to go downstairs.

In order to prevent being stopped from talking halfway, she deliberately went out of the glass lattice corridor, found a secluded path among flowers and plants, and walked to the back of the small flower bed in front of the pavilion according to the scene she had just seen from the upper floor.

The girl in the red dress was diagonally facing her direction, with a high nose and white sides, and it was clear at a glance that she was a very beautiful person. The one in the yellow skirt sat down with his back to Wanchun, slender and graceful.

Wan Chun calmed down, and listened to the girl in the red dress smile and said to the girl in the yellow dress: "Sister Chunmei, your mouth is really neat, I can't mean you." It's just that since the fifth brother wants to make peace with you, why do you want him to not get off the stage? ”

The woman in the yellow dress snorted and said: "Where is he making peace with me, look at the two sentences he said, do you have the slightest meaning of admitting mistakes?" What do you mean that I've been out and about, and we're even? Is this a? If it weren't for him not hugging him, how would I find someone to bet on it? What's more, that person is still so uninteresting, I just said it and gave three points of color, he really thought that he had the ability to marry the young lady of Zhao Mansion, and he didn't see what his identity was, and I would be reprimanded by my parents, I think his wife and children deserve to die. Now you don't have to say good things for your brother anymore, my heart is dead, and I think the two of us are fated. ”

The woman in the red dress saw that she didn't listen to persuasion, but just smiled slightly.

Under the cover of the flower bed, Wanchun listened to them while crushing the petals of the begonias blooming in front of her, leaving only the residual fragrance of one hand.
