It was the day of Li Mingqian's birthday, and early in the morning, Mrs. Zhu sent a carriage to pick up Wang Jin. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Wang Jin felt ashamed, but it was really difficult to bring her over, so he promised to bring some good things back, which made Wang Tang smile.

When they arrived at Zhu's mansion, Mrs. Zhu and Mingzhu had already dressed up and got into the carriage together.

Seeing that Wang Jin'er was holding a boxy package in her hand, Mrs. Zhu's thoughts turned slightly and asked, "What did Jin'er bring?" It's a birthday gift for Mr. Li, right? ”

Wang Jin's face was embarrassed, and he said with some embarrassment: "Well, the family conditions are limited, so I have to make some food, and I don't know if I will be disliked." ”

Mrs. Zhu was suddenly relieved, looking at the inconspicuous package in her hand and a little disdainful, but she comforted her kindly: "It's okay, it's good that the heart has arrived!" ”

Wang Jin nodded obediently, and seemed to be curious: "What gifts did Aunt and Mingzhu prepare, they must be very valuable, right?" ”

Mrs. Zhu waved her hand and said, "It's just some of the four treasures of the study, how valuable can they be." ”

She said lightly, but a hint of pride flashed in her eyes.

What's the use of gifts, what treasures have the Li family never seen, the most important thing is to get the right mind of the eldest prince Li.

Wang Jin looked at Mingzhu on the side and felt that she was a little silent today.

She thought about it and knew why.

It's because I want to see Li Mingqian, so I'm nervous.

She leaned over to Mingzhu and gently squeezed her tight hand under her sleeve.

Mingzhu was thinking about seeing Li Mingqian later, and was pinched by Wang Jian and suddenly came back to his senses and turned his head to look at her.

Seeing that Wang Jin's eyes were full of encouragement, she was slightly touched in her heart, and she smiled back, and her nervous mood couldn't help but ease a little.

Mrs. Zhu looked at the movements of the two little daughters opposite, and was a little satisfied with Wang Jin's knowledge.

When the carriage arrived at the Li Mansion, Li's mother waited in the flower hall herself, and as soon as they came, they got on the small oil cart and were taken to the banquet hall of the Li Mansion.

Although Mrs. Li San said before that she didn't plan to make a big deal, the Li family has a wide range of people in the mall and has many good friends. When they heard that Li Mingqian had changed his mind and planned to end this year, they all said that they would come to the door to congratulate them, but as a result, there were more than ten tables of people, so they had to put the banquet in the banquet hall.

The carriage stopped, Wang Jin and the others got out of the car, looking at the round banquet hall in front of them with a glazed tile roof, mahogany carved lacquer, covering an area of more than two acres, they were all a little shocked and speechless.

The Li family is really... Lavish.

At the door of the banquet hall, a steward was busy greeting the guests and registering the gifts, but Mrs. Zhu was not in a hurry to send the gifts, but asked the servant woman to follow behind her with the gift box.

The ladies had a separate entrance, and Mama Li brought them in and sent them to a separate room.

"This is a private room specially prepared by Madame, Mrs. Zhu and the young ladies go in first to rest for a while, and Madame will come immediately." Mother Li said respectfully.

"I'm sorry mom, so that Mrs. doesn't have to care about us, just come back when you're busy." Mrs. Zhu said with a smile, and stretched out her hand to help Mother Li.

There is a maid ring of the Li Mansion to serve in the private room, not only a pineapple wood round table, but also a couch by the window behind the screen, the room is very spacious, and a few pots of camellia on the wall are very delicate.

They sat down in the house, and the lively sound of the banquet outside gradually came, thinking that the guests were almost there, and the feast was about to begin.

It didn't take long for Mrs. Li San to come over, but she was not alone.

Wang Jin looked at Chen Huilan and a noble lady behind Mrs. Li San, and suddenly felt that her head was a little big, and she subconsciously hid her left hand in her sleeve.

Chen Huilan's original expression was still very flat, but when she saw Wang Jin beside Mingzhu, she couldn't help frowning, and an irritability rose in her heart.

How did you meet her? It's an eyesore.

Thinking of his mother's recent plans, he was even more resentful, and looked at Wang Jin more and more dazzling.

Mrs. Li San welcomed Chen Huilan and the others in and introduced them to them: "This is the inner family of the prefect Lord Chen. This is the lady and niece of the Cao Gang Zhu Duo's family, maybe you have all seen it before. ”

"I've seen it, I went to drink with my lord last time Governor Chen's birthday was held!" Mrs. Zhu stepped forward enthusiastically and said, "I didn't expect Mrs. Chen and Miss Chen to come here today, what a coincidence!" ”

Mrs. Chen smiled and nodded: "Mrs. Zhu hasn't seen her for a long time, but she is still so hearty." Since we met by such a coincidence, let's be each other's companions here, and I don't know much about the people outside. ”

"Since the two ladies have spoken, I will be absent first, and the ladies outside still need someone to greet them." Mrs. Li San apologized.

In fact, there was no need for Mrs. Li San to personally send guests over, but Mrs. Chen's identity was different, and she was uninvited, and Mrs. Li San couldn't figure out her intentions, so she personally sent them over for fear of being sluggish.

Mrs. Chen naturally did not embarrass her, and after she left, she and Mrs. Zhu sat on the couch drinking tea and talking, very familiar and kind. The three girls sat at the table and had nothing to say, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.

In the end, Wang Jin stiffened her head and smiled at Chen Huilan opposite: "Miss Chen, long time no see." ”

Chen Huilan glanced at her lightly, and there was an almost inaudible hum in her throat, even if she responded.

Wang Jian guessed that she would have such an attitude, and she was not angry, and of course she would not take the initiative to put her face on her cold ass.

But the pearl next to her is not very happy.

She didn't know the previous relationship between Chen Huilan and Wang Jin, but she just felt that she had no one in her eyes, and she probably didn't take herself seriously, so she was really uneducated.

Moreover, she was a dignified official lady who deliberately went out of the house to attend Li Mingqian's birthday banquet, was it polite or had another purpose?

The banquet hall is so big, but Mrs. Li San arranged them together, but I am afraid that there are other reasons.

The more she thought about it, the more uneasy she became, and finally decided to take the initiative to probe Chen Huilan's tone.

"Jin'er, have you met Miss Chen before?" She wondered.

Wang Jian nodded: "There have been several encounters. ”

Chen Huilan sneered when she heard this, and said with a slight mockery: "Yes, Miss Wang just met me first, and then met Sister Ruan and them, coaxing people around, and I don't remember my previous sisters." ”

After she came back from Jinling, she was silent for a long time before she recovered her spirits, and asked a few good sisters to come out for a walk, but she didn't expect Ruan Minyu to shirk and refuse to come several times. sent someone to inquire, but it turned out to be a close relationship with Wang Jin, which made her really cold and angry for a while.

Later, she thought about it carefully, Ruan Minyu was simple-minded, and she must have been bewitched by Wang Jin's clever words, and she had already held her breath in her heart, so she naturally wanted to satirize Wang Jin at this time.

Only then did Mingzhu know that Wang Jin knew Miss Ruan in this way, but Chen Huilan's tone was too bad, and she was even more dissatisfied in her heart. It's just that at this time, there are elders present, and it is not appropriate to have a conflict, so she joked in a relaxed atmosphere: "Jin'er has a good temperament, and she is the easiest to bully, maybe Miss Ruan has taken a fancy to her!"

Chen Huilan glanced at Mingzhu, understood her intentions, thought of the purpose of coming today, was irritable, and had no intention of making trouble with Wang Jin, so she replied lightly: "So, Miss Zhu doesn't bully Miss Wang less on weekdays?" ”

Mingzhu choked, and then smiled: "I was really right, Miss Chen said it right, I really always feel embarrassed for Jin'er, and I still pull her to accompany me to strengthen my courage today!" ”

"Courage? What kind of courage do you have? Chen Huilan said.

Mingzhu's eyes shook towards Mrs. Zhu, and she lowered her voice and said, "Before I came, my mother repeatedly told me that I must pay attention to my manners today, and also said that Mrs. Li San might have something to say to me, let me answer well, which made me nervous." ”

Chen Huilan's eyes changed slightly when she heard this, how could this be exactly the same as what her mother said to herself before she went out.

The thoughts in her heart turned sharply, looking at the joy on the face of Mrs. Zhu, who had a good conversation with her mother, she suddenly understood something, and her heart sank, and her already irritable mood became more and more depressed, mixed with a sense of anger.

The young lady Yuxue I saw in Jiangfu was cute, she was born in a family in the capital, she had nothing to say if she lost, but couldn't she compare to Zhu Mingzhu?

Even if she still has a love for Jiang Qingliu and has little interest in Li Mingqian, who she has never met, she will never allow her face to be trampled on at will! (To be continued.) )
