Four servants carried up a pine tree in a pot.

The pot was the size of two people hugging each other, and the pine tree was leafy, and there were a few small pine trees under the tree.

"Grandmother, this is the Primorne Pine that my granddaughter got from the east, I wish my grandmother will be like this Primella Pine, and she will be young forever."

As soon as this gift was offered, there was a discussion among the people around it.

"This centennial pine is a specialty of a place in the eastern part of the country, and it is said that it is extremely difficult to grow, and it takes a hundred years to grow to the size of a normal pine tree. Locals usually can't wait for it to grow up and cut it down for firewood. Today's tree is at least seventy or eighty years old, which is rare. ”

"Isn't it? It seems that this Miss Yuan is bothered. I don't know where she got it from, so I'll ask and find one next time, for my old lady. ”

……

The old lady was very happy to see the gift prepared by her granddaughter. "Good!"

She also gave Yuan Shanqi a small red blessing bag.

She saluted and thanked her, stepped aside, and glanced at Yuan Shanjia without a trace, as if she was a little worried.

Everyone looked at the two gifts in front of them, Yuan Tian's birthday gift was full of heart, and Yuan Shanqi's birthday gift was also commendable. Naturally, their eyes were set on the recent figure of the year in Yundu-Yuan Shanjia.

I saw Yuan Shanjia combing his drooping hair, and a pink crystal wei hairpin was obliquely inserted on the top of his head. Dressed in a light pink satin embroidered butterfly skirt, with a red reunion knot with long tassels around her waist, and a pair of red phoenix wing satin shoes on her feet.

She has a bright smile on her face, and she is very cute and cute. It makes people feel comfortable when they see it.

"Grandmother, Jia'er doesn't have much chance to go to Hongfu Temple, and she doesn't have anything precious to offer you. Just made a wipe for you. Yuan Shanjia's face was flushed and a little ashamed, "But when I followed the master, I didn't learn female workers, so I didn't do very well, I hope my grandmother won't dislike it." ”

As soon as her voice fell, Qing'er handed over a small box.

"Nothing. As long as it's given by my good granddaughter, I like it. The old lady shook her head with a smile and took the box.

When the box was opened, inside the box was a cyan forehead with a blue gem in the middle. At a glance, you can see that the gemstone is not a very valuable kind, just an ordinary kind of opal.

"I like the gift from Jia'er." The old lady was very happy when she saw it, and she was secretly proud in her heart.

Although this gift is not very expensive, it is made by her own son, and it is the first one. Not even the old lady and General Yuanda.

Although the male guests felt a little shabby after seeing this birthday gift, there were few gossips to spoil the interest of others.

So they all complimented, "The granddaughters of the old lady are very heartfelt, and Miss Yuan Er will do it for you herself." ”

The female guests present are not those who have never seen the world, so naturally they will not come to make trouble on this happy day.

"Your little granddaughter is a good one, and I haven't seen my granddaughter do anything to me. Alas! "This is the eldest princess Junlan, the old lady of the Marquis of Chunbo's mansion.

The eldest princess Junlan is the sister of the current saint, with a respected status, and she is very good in all aspects, whether it is talent or conduct. Therefore, whenever she says a good word, it is a grand occasion for ten families of women.

"Where does the eldest princess say, the county lord of Zhifei has excellent talents and a gentle temperament, which family doesn't know. She is a daughter, how can she be suitable for this? Besides, if she hears what you say today, don't talk about wiping your forehead, even if it's a whole set of clothes. "The old lady has a good relationship with the eldest princess, joking.

"Sister Cui, you don't look like you're fifty." The eldest princess of Junlan listened and said solemnly.

The old lady's original name was Cui Ziyi.

The old lady of Lu Guo next to her looked at it carefully, "It's really not like it." How do you take such good care of yourself? ”

The eldest princess of Junlan couldn't help but smile when she saw the stunned appearance of the old lady of Lu Guo, "I didn't mean that. ”

"Which one is that?" The old lady of Lu Guo was originally a simple person, so she was a little puzzled.

"Her mouth is still so sweet." The eldest princess of Junlan covered her mouth and smiled.

Saying this, the rest of the people even laughed.

Just like that, the eldest princess Junlan diverted the topic, and no one else dared to say anything.

Yuan Shanqi looked at the pink dress on Yuan Shanjia's body, a little annoyed, she forgot to make sure that Yuan Shanjia would definitely wear that red dress.

It's also that I've been busy learning from my mother to deal with the birthday banquet these days, and I forgot about such an important thing. No way! How could she be allowed to escape so easily? As soon as she returned, she robbed her grandmother of her favor, and her father liked her more and more.

With a warm smile, Yuan Shanjia turned his brain.

"The birthday feast begins." The master of ceremonies shouted.

The old lady took all the female guests to the side hall, while the old lady stayed in the main hall to greet the male guests.

The servants moved very quickly, and under the beckoning of the butler, they rehearsed many times.

They quickly removed the screen and hung the curtain again. In just a blink of an eye, a small stage was set up.

The dancers who had been preparing in the back hall slowly poured into the hall like colorful clouds.

For a while, the sound of silk and bamboo piano music sounded.

The maids are also like butterflies, shuttling between tables and chairs with delicacies, serving food and pouring wine for adults.

Let's not talk about the staggered competition on the male side.

The side hall is a short distance from the main hall, so the sound of the main hall cannot be heard clearly, only the vague sound of excitement.

The old lady returned to the side hall with several respected old ladies and Yuan Shanqi and others, and toasted a glass of wine to the guests from afar on the main seat, saying that they were good to eat and drink.

There are also performances in the side hall.

It's just that it's not a silk and bamboo song and dance like the main hall, but a babbling opera. This is an indispensable part of the birthday party.

"Old lady, let's make a show." Qing'er, as the old lady's eldest maid, naturally stepped forward with an excerpt with a repertoire and asked the old lady to play.

"Grandmother, why don't you order the Eight Immortals to offer longevity peaches." Yuan Shanqi suggested, very filial.

The old lady didn't have any big requests, "What does the eldest princess think?" ”

The eldest princess of Junlan said with a smile: "Today is your birthday banquet, so it is naturally a guest and a host." ”

The eldest princess said that she was a guest, and no one else could say anything.

"Then the Eight Immortals will offer longevity peaches, and they should also be appropriate." The old lady made a decision.

As soon as the words fell, someone went up to announce the curtain. The sound of babbling singing began to sound.

The maids who served the food in the side hall were also very responsible, and soon served most of the dishes.

Yuan Shanjia sat not far from the old lady's head, so it was close to the stage.

While listening to the eight immortals, she took a sip of fruit wine with a slight taste of wine, and served it comfortably.

Yuan Shanqi also had a look of relish on his face, but in fact it was not.

Although she is not a shallow learner, she does not like these boring dramas very much, and she likes to play the piano and dance more than these. But she never showed it. My mother said that no matter how much you hate something, you can't show it on the surface, it's not only a matter of upbringing, but also a matter of reputation.

After listening to the Eight Immortals offering longevity peaches, the old lady is naturally not enough, the banquet is not over yet, and it is estimated that she can listen to most of the repertoire.
