The sun was shining outside, and a row of birds stood on the eaves of the porch, chirping happily, not jumping two steps, enjoying the peaceful days.

Liu felt that her cheeks were about to stiffen with laughter, but she still smiled brightly, and it wasn't until the mother-in-law of Changning Bofu left that her smile fell, and her face was cold.

Jiang Zhi secretly glanced at her mother, only to feel that what she saw just now was not her mother. Such a hideous look made her heart tremble.

"Zhi, you come out." After a while, Liu came back to his senses, took Jiang Zhi's hand and stuffed the post into her hand, and said: "Changningbo's Mansion is a noble family, Changningbo has to rely on the saint, and the status of people who want to come to the flower banquet is not low, you are also eight years old this year, and the good age of the girl's family is only a few years, if you miss it, there will be no more." You take the post to it, your sister, and tell her all the things you have learned in the Chen family over the years that you will use at the flower banquet. If she is willing to take you to the flower feast, then you will happily respond, and remember to thank her a lot. ”

After saying these words, Liu Shi felt that the strength of his whole body had been hollowed out, and his brain hurt and he couldn't help but rub his forehead.

The post sprinkled with gold in her hand was printed with the pattern of wealth, she had seen such a post, and she had seen it on the desk of Miss Chen. Miss Chen receives a lot of such posts every year, but she doesn't care much about posts that are rare for others, and she will turn down one or two invitations when she is in a bad mood. At that time, the young ladies in the other rooms of the Chen family would pester the eldest lady to want these posts, and the eldest lady Chen would not say anything. Just throw the post over and those who take it will be overjoyed.

She had been infinitely looking forward to receiving such a post one day, in the Chen Family School. She tolerated everywhere, befriended the young ladies of the Chen family, and never quarreled with them. My mother said that the Chen family and their family have such a relationship, and the Chen family will more or less promote her, but such posts are precious after all, and Miss Chen often doesn't want to go to these banquets when she is young. Mrs. Chen won't say anything about her, but in the past two years, she has attended more and more banquets. The post will not be given to other sisters in the family, let alone her, a person with a foreign surname.

Now, she also has an older sister, a sister-in-law.

Right now. Her sister also received such a precious post. She doesn't need her sister to give her the post, she just needs to take her to the banquet to see and understand.

Jiang Zhi took the post a little excitedly, her eyes were shining, her face flushed and she looked at Liu, and asked a little worriedly: "Mother, will my sister really take me there?" ”

Liu was so distressed that he still pulled out a smile and touched her head lovingly. said: "Your sister loves you, so she will naturally take you there." She had never been to a banquet like this. If you don't behave well at that time, but it's our people from Jiangfu who will lose it, you will be implicated. If she forgets to mention it later, you can say that you want to go to the flower banquet to see and know, and let her take you there. You are used to being coquettish in front of me and your father, don't you still be coquettish in front of your sister? ”

Jiang Zhi thinks about it, she is young, and it is nothing to be coquettish, her sister already loves her, as long as she mentions it, her sister will definitely take her there.

"Mother, what do you say I should wear to the flower banquet? Today in the school, Sister Chen Liu said that the second lady Zhang Luo made a few summer clothes for the young ladies in the family, using the new rain silk brocade of Linglong Fang, the style is also newly thought out by the master of Linglong Fang, just the painting on the drawings are particularly beautiful, if it is made into clothes, then I don't know how to be beautiful. Jiang Zhi pouted, and the envy in her tone couldn't be hidden.

How Liu didn't understand the careful thinking of the daughter she gave birth to, she sighed and said: "Didn't I just make you new clothes for the Spring Banquet a few days ago, our family is not rich, your father is out of the house, and I don't know when I will come back, I have to have silver around me to walk, Huguang suffered a disaster last year, and I don't know how the harvest will be this year, and my income has decreased a little." Now there is a disaster in the family...... Your sister is here again, and the expenses are big again. I have to rack my brains every day just thinking about this family eating, drinking, and Lazar, you don't want to share it for me, but you still want to compare with others, last year's account book, you are looking at it in vain. ”

Jiang Zhi's eyes were red.

Liu Shi didn't feel distressed in her heart, she had no ability to give her daughter a worry-free life, so she had to teach her to understand that people are different as soon as possible. If you don't have something that someone else has, you will definitely have.

"You cry, what are you crying about? Feeling aggrieved? Think I'm talking too much? Liu's hard-hearted question, outside the house, Yao's mother sent away the mother-in-law of Changning Bofu, walked to the door and heard the voice of Liu's goddaughter, paused, thought about it and turned around and went to the kitchen.

Although there are few people in Xinglan Courtyard at this time, the room is full of happy laughter.

"The catcher of Shuntian Mansion really said that I am fine, and I don't have to go to court the day after tomorrow?" Jiang Quinoa didn't believe it, what she said was so serious at the beginning, and now that she was not suspicious, she let her go so easily? In addition to disbelief, he also felt, "How can this Shuntianfu do things like a child, just based on the confession of a sentenced person, it will be tossed and turned over and over." ”

Jiang Chun pouted: "Isn't it just like playing at home, I thought that we could go to the lobby of Shuntian Mansion at that time, and go back to add a conversation to me, I was excited for several nights and didn't fall asleep, but when it came to me, I changed my hexagram, didn't it make me happy in vain." ”

She said sorry, Jiang Qu smiled and pushed her.

Where she couldn't sleep with excitement, it was because she was worried about her comfort, so she couldn't sleep.

"I thought that the officials in the capital were smart, honest, and selfless, so it seemed that it was better for us to do things fairly." Jiang Chun snorted.

Jiang Quinoa felt a lot in his heart, but his mind was messed up at this time, and he couldn't figure it out.

"Good people have good rewards, whoever does anything will be watched by God, and will not wronged good people." Cai Lu said with emotion.

Jiang Quinoa walked around the room a few times, and a thought flashed through her mind, she wanted to catch it but was run away by that thought, and she was annoyed. Just as he was hesitating, the shouts of the little maid came from outside, and Cai Lu was closest to the door. When I went out, I saw the vial standing at the door with her neck bent, and smiled at her: "Sister Cailu, I'm tired of talking to the eldest lady, the young master is back, and I asked the eldest lady if it was inconvenient to see him." ”

Cai Lu smiled and responded, not daring to beckon her in. Before she could enter the house, Jiang Quino's happy voice came from inside: "I remembered what I was going to ask, and now the suspicions on my body have been cleared." Will I be able to leave Beijing? ”

Jiang Chun raised his eyebrows, clapped his hands and said, "Yes, we can go home." He jumped up as he spoke, and his joy was palpable.

"Let Brother Junko come in." Jiang Quinoa shouted outside. Turned around and discussed with Jiang Chun: "I think we have to discuss the matter of going home." If you want me to see if it's too early or too late. The more we delay, the more we can't leave, let's pack up tonight, and tomorrow morning we will use the carriage in the house to send us to Tongzhou, and then take a boat south in Tongzhou. ”

Caiyin grew up near the suburbs of Beijing since she was a child, and she had never taken a boat yet, so she was very happy to hear it, and pulled Jiang Chun to ask what the big boat was like, and if they wanted to row by themselves. What to eat on board, whether you can fire or not, etc.

Jiang Chun thought to himself. She grew up in Huguang since she was a child, and although there are many lakes and rivers in Huguang, she has never seen a big boat. But it's really hard to say this, so I have to respond to the words of the voice.

Jiang Quinoa couldn't help but laugh when she heard her talking nonsense to Caiyin seriously.

Cai Lu looked at Jiang Quinoa and Jiang Chun, and waited for them to take the initiative to ask themselves about the flower viewing banquet in Changning Bofu, but they didn't seem to remember this at all, and they didn't mention it at all, they really killed her.

"Miss, when the slave maid just came back, I saw a well-dressed mother-in-law go to the main room to visit the lady, and the slave maid happened to meet the red cloud of the Xinying Courtyard, she said that it was the mother-in-law of Changning Bofu, who came to send an invitation to the eldest lady for the flower banquet." They didn't mention it, so Cai Green had to take the initiative to bring it up.

"Flower viewing feast?" Jiang Quinoa finally heard her words, but she was puzzled, "What kind of flowers?" It's also the same as the Spring Banquet held in our house before, buying flowers from the flower shop and putting them in the garden, and then inviting others to listen to the play and enjoy the flowers and eat the banquet? ”

Cai Lu shook his head with a red face: "The slave and maid don't know, and the slave and maid have never participated in the flower viewing banquet." "After all, she hasn't been in the house for a long time, and she doesn't know anything about it.

"But Sister Hongyun's tone when she talked about that post, it seems that the post is very precious, and only a few young ladies from the Chen Mansion can get it." Pick up the greenway.

"I'm not the only lady in our house." Jiang Quinoa's heart was like an arrow, and his mind was not on the flower viewing banquet at all, and he said casually: "Give such a rare post to Ah Zhi." She grew up in the capital since she was a child and understands the rules of the capital. I grew up with the young lady of the Chen family, and I went to the flower banquet with acquaintances. What are we doing, I can't tell the flowers except for their eyes. ”

"That's it." Jiang Chun nodded again and again: "I can only distinguish the color of my eyes, sometimes I will look at the eyes when I have too many eyes, this flower viewing banquet is tiring and boring." Let's hurry up and pack up our things. ”

The two talked and talked about going home, and when they thought of Jiangli Village, Qingbo, and Aunt Rong, they couldn't wait to grow wings and fly back now.

Seeing that they didn't care so much, Cai Lu stomped his feet, gritted his teeth, and said secretly: Forget it, with such a master, there is no need to count on being rich and wealthy in the future.

"Ah, I said I was going to bring a gift back to Xingni, but I forgot to buy it in a hurry last time, and I'm still free, why don't we go out and buy it back now?" Jiang Chun shouted.

Jiang Quinoa thought about it, if he left today, he might not come in the future, so it's good to go out and see the capital again.

Before the two of them went out, the voices of Jiang Zhi and Jiang Shun sounded in the courtyard.

"Sister, are you leaving again?" Jiang Zhi asked with a thick crying voice, looking at Jiang Quinoa with a thick cry.

There has never been a little girl who has relied on herself so much, in the end, it is her own sister, Jiang Qu thought that no matter what grievances and hatreds the previous generation had, they should not be implicated in their three sisters and brothers. And when he didn't come, Jiang Mansion should be full of joy and warmth, and in the final analysis, it was his sudden arrival that destroyed Jiang Zhi's happiness.

"If it weren't for Steward Jiang chasing us back, we wouldn't have arrived at Jiangli Village at this time, sat under the grapevines, and followed the master to do needlework." Jiang Qu sighed and said: "I haven't lived with my father and mother for a long time when I am so old, and my admiration for my father and mother made me go all the way to the capital, and I met my father and mother, and I saw you who are smart and sensible, and I am very happy with the naughty and cute Weiran." But I don't belong here, I have to leave sooner or later, and now I don't have anything to worry about, and everyone looks better. ”

There is no need to say some things too clearly, Jiang Zhi is not an ignorant child, she grew up in the capital since she was a child, and people who come and go talk in twists and turns, she can naturally understand that her mother's attitude towards Jiang Quinoa is wrong.

"But, but," Jiang Zhi raised the invitation in her hand, a little at a loss: "But Changningbo's invitation clearly invites Miss Jiang Mansion and Miss Tang, you and Sister Chun'er are leaving, how can we go to the flower viewing banquet in Changningbo Mansion?" ”

"Miss Jiangfu refers to you or me, but this Miss Tang?" Jiang Quinoa took the invitation and looked at it, raised his eyebrows, and glanced at Jiang Chun, which made Jiang Chun's heart furious.

Jiang Chun waved his hand again and again: "This has nothing to do with me, I don't know any Changningbo Mansion." ”

Jiang Quinoa shrugged, stuffed the post into Jiang Zhi's hand, and said indifferently: "I see, it must be that the matter in Tongzhou is making a big deal this time, and these nobles in the capital have also heard the rumors, so I want to see what I look like as a little girl who was rewarded by the imperial court but got into a lawsuit." It's not a big deal, when the time comes, you say that you don't adapt to the water and soil, miss your homeland, etc., and say that we will leave. These people don't necessarily want to see us, even if they look strange. ”

Jiang Chun nodded again and again: "That's it." The matter of the house in Tongzhou, if it weren't for Ah Quinoa's kindness to donate the house to the Eternal Life Academy, the relationship with the eldest princess in the car by chance, and the prince of Ming came out to ask about it for his aunt, we can't say that they are all on death row now, what do they see. ”

Jiang Zhi saw that they were determined to go back to Jiangli Village, but she couldn't persuade herself, she was anxious, but she couldn't do anything, so she had to take the post and go back to the main house.

"Mother, they said that they would leave early and go back to Jiangli Village. If they don't go, I won't go to the flower-viewing banquet in Changningbo's Mansion. Jiang Zhi angrily threw the post on the table.

"What's going on here? If they don't go, you can go on your own. The young lady of the Chen family will also go, and when the time comes, you will follow the young lady of the Chen family, and you can also find someone to take you to get acquainted with the noble ladies of the capital. Liu said.

Jiang Zhi pushed the post and said, "Who can't see it, this post is for them, they don't go, when the time comes, I'll go, others ask, how can I reply?" Shame is not shame. I won't do such a shameful thing. ”

Jiang Zhi casually pushed the post and opened it, and the invitee clearly wrote that Miss Jiang Fu and Miss Tang were invited. A Zhi is Miss Jiangfu, and it is understandable to take this post to the flower viewing banquet in Changning Bo Mansion, but in the future, if she can't get another look at the nobles at this flower viewing banquet, then in the future, no matter how good she is, if she can't go to such a banquet, others won't see her good.

"Since you want to go to the banquet with your sister, I will go and tell her in person and ask her to accompany you to the banquet." Liu said slowly.

Jiang Zhi tugged at the hand decorated with pearls on the handkerchief, burst into a bright smile, pulled Liu's arm and said coquettishly: "Mother, you are the best." (To be continued......)
