The people present are all famous ladies who pay attention to etiquette and demeanor, so it is naturally inconvenient to be too curious, at most they look at the two of them with the corner of their eyes when they are chatting and talking.

This look made everyone secretly amazed.

Gu Xiyu is dressed in a pale green dress, her skin is whiter than snow, her eyes are faint like two pools of water, her lips are ruddy like petals, and her beauty is delicate and flawless. And Ye Qinglan, wearing a pink dress today, with a smile on her lips and wavy eyes, is like a budding orchid, indescribably beautiful and moving.

The two girls sit side by side, each with their own style, but they are also incomprehensible.

There is also Shen Qiuyu, who has been dressed up in makeup, which is really pleasing to the eye.

In fact, beauty is not only loved by men, but also by women. Especially at the level where it's so beautiful that people can't feel jealous. What's more, most of the female relatives who came to the banquet today were middle-aged women in their thirties and forties, and they were all self-aware and had a hard time. I also have the mood to appreciate the beauty.

However, there are also two middle-aged ladies who are in a delicate mood.

One of them is Mars. She fell in love with Ye Qinglan that day and wanted to marry a peugeot and clever daughter-in-law for her sick and weak youngest son. Unexpectedly, before the eight characters were skimmed, they heard the news that Queen Gu had summoned Ye Qinglan into the palace.

After receiving the message sent by the Xue family that day, Ma almost couldn't believe his ears, and his first reaction was that the Xue family was playing with himself. But after calming down, he realized that Xue never had the courage to tell such a lie. Immediately afterwards, Mrs. Zheng revealed her intention to marry in public, and Ma finally gave up completely.

She just has the guts. I didn't dare to compete with the Dingguo Mansion, so I could only give up this family business. One of the original two people was selected to be a daughter-in-law.

But now, I saw Ye Qinglan smiling in front of me. The suppressed unhappiness and anger in Ma's heart poured out like a spring

Another person who is in a delicate mood is the lady of the Ministry of Justice, Wang. She chatted with Mo casually, but in fact, the corner of her eye had been paying attention to Gu Xiyu's every move.

I saw Gu Xiyu sitting there quietly, her hands on her knees very naturally, although she didn't speak from beginning to end, her demeanor was calm and calm, how could she be half a "different from ordinary people" from outsiders?

Wang secretly muttered in his heart, and couldn't help but feel a little remorse in his heart. Knowing this, it was really time to see Gu Xiyu that day and make plans again......

She didn't give birth to Xie Peng until she was twenty-five years old. Naturally, it hurts and pampers. Basically, Xie Peng gave whatever he wanted, and he was never willing to move a finger. This time, Xie Peng made a fuss about marrying Gu Xiyu, but she didn't agree to it. In the final analysis, it's all for the sake of his son. Xie Fu's only son, he can't marry a girl who screams and cries when she sees the living!

Therefore, the Wang family was ruthless, no matter how much Xie Peng made trouble, he would never back down half a step. For this. beat Xie Peng and locked him up in the house for three months.

But when he saw Gu Xiyu today, Wang knew how unreliable the rumors were. Except for being silent and saying little, Gu Xiyu is basically the same as an ordinary girl. Such beauty. Such a family background and such a temperament are worthy of Xie Peng in any respect......

But she grounded Xie Peng. It is known to all who have preached. At this time, if you change your attitude, you will go to the Dingguo Mansion to propose. Isn't it a joke? What's more, the Dingguo Mansion is not easy to get along with. I've heard such rumors. How could it be possible to agree to Xie Fu's proposal?

The more Wang thought about it, the more annoyed he became, but he couldn't show half of it on his face, and still talked to everyone as if nothing happened.

At this moment, the young woman sitting next to Shen Qiuyu said with a smile: "Today is the joy of Concubine Shen's birthday, and there is nothing that the concubine can handle. As he spoke, he glanced at the maid behind him. The maid came out with a long, heavy brocade box.

As soon as the brocade box was opened, I saw a coral tree about three feet high lying quietly in the brocade box. The whole body of the coral is crystal clear, shining with dazzling light, and it is obviously of the highest quality. The ladies present were all knowledgeable and immediately praised them.

Shen Qiuyu thanked him with a smile and ordered someone to accept the gift.

The young woman started the way, and the other ladies also sent congratulatory gifts. In fact, generally speaking, congratulatory gifts are packed in boxes and attached with a gift list. Showing the congratulatory gift in public like today is a very casual and intimate act. Fortunately, most of the ladies here have close contacts with the prince's mansion, so they don't care.

Everyone knows that the prince favors Concubine Shen alone, and he specially held a birthday banquet for her. This kind of behavior actually has the meaning of putting Concubine Shen and the crown princess side by side. Therefore, the congratulatory gifts prepared by everyone are naturally very valuable. This display of congratulatory gifts, however, has a bit of comparison. All kinds of precious and rare objects are revealed.

Mo's smile did not decrease, but his eyes were slightly cold. Intentionally or unintentionally, he glanced at the young woman. This woman's surname is Feng, and her husband's position is not high, just a five-grade Hanlin. It was only because Feng and Shen Qiuyu were friends that they were invited to the banquet. Feng's first congratulatory gift was obviously intentional. Maybe it was Shen Qiuyu who secretly instructed him......

If Ye Qinglan's congratulatory gift was too ordinary later, it would be a big shame in front of everyone today.

Ye Qinglan looked very calm - anyone who brought the best jade as a congratulatory gift would have such confidence. Shen Qiuyu wants to embarrass her, but she is destined to fail to do so!

Soon it was Gu Xiyu's turn.

Although Gu Xiyu didn't see Shen Qiuyu's intentions, she also faintly noticed that something was wrong. Before sending the congratulatory gift, he smiled and said, "I have prepared a congratulatory gift for Concubine Shen with Cousin Lan, I hope Concubine Shen likes it." ”

Ye Qinglan felt a warm feeling in her heart, and glanced at Gu Xiyu with a smile.

Shen Qiuyu wanted to make Ye Qinglan look ugly, so he naturally refused to give up, and quietly glanced at the Feng family. The Feng clan immediately understood, smiled and opened his mouth: "Miss Gu, this is a joke." Today is Concubine Shen's birthday, Miss Ye Shi must have prepared a congratulatory gift! Why don't you take it out and open our eyes? ”

At this time, not to mention the Mo family, even the female dependents saw that something was wrong. Where is this to open your eyes, it is clear that she wants to make Ye Qinglan ugly! Ye Qinglan's identity is there, how can she come up with a decent gift?

Gu Xiyu's white and tender cheeks flushed slightly, and a trace of anger flashed in her eyes. Just as he was about to say something, he heard Ye Qinglan smile slightly: "I did prepare a small gift, I want everyone to laugh." ”

A hint of pride flashed in Feng's eyes, and he deliberately covered his mouth and smiled: "Congratulatory gifts don't care whether they are valuable or not, what matters is this intention." Even if Miss Ye Shi gave Fang Pazi, Concubine Shen must be very happy. ”

When Feng made fun of Ye Qinglan, Shen Qiuyu listened with a smile on the side, and he didn't mean to break the siege at all.

Mo coughed and laughed, "Mrs. Feng is really humorous when she speaks today. However, it is true that courtesy is light and affection is important. ”

Feng didn't expect Mo to help Ye Qinglan, he was stunned, and subconsciously glanced at Shen Qiuyu. Shen Qiuyu frowned invisibly, and then smiled casually: "What the crown princess said is true." was said by the crown princess, and the concubine was really curious. ”

Mo Shi and Shen Qiuyu are such a pair, no one will speak at this time. If you accidentally offend one of them, the gain will outweigh the loss.

As a result, everyone's eyes focused on Ye Qinglan. What kind of congratulatory gift did she prepare today?

Gu Xiyu was the only one who was really worried about Ye Qinglan, and looked at her with a worried face.

Ye Qinglan smiled soothingly, and then glanced at Ruomei behind her. Ruomei brought up the brocade box she was holding. As soon as the delicate brocade box appeared, it immediately attracted everyone's attention.

The materials are exquisite, the workmanship is exquisite, and there are many fine gemstones. This brocade box alone is also worth a lot of money. In such a brocade box, the congratulatory gifts are not too bad, right......

Ye Qinglan's gentle and soft voice sounded: "This brocade box contains a piece of jadeite, Concubine Shen likes bracelets or can be made into hostas and jade hairpins." ”

Before the words fell, Ruomei carefully opened the brocade box.

As soon as the brocade box was opened, the clear and smooth jade appeared in front of everyone. Even people who don't know the goods can see that this piece of jadeite is extraordinary.

Feng, who was waiting to see the joke, was suddenly dumbfounded.

Shen Qiuyu smiled slightly.

Mo's eyes lit up, and the corners of his lips suddenly rose, pretending to be surprised: "This is a rare high-grade jade!" The most rare thing is that this piece of jadeite is flawless, and if it is made into a bracelet, it must be very beautiful. As he spoke, he glanced at Shen Qiuyu with a smile: "Concubine Shen has won such a good piece of jade, which is really enviable." ”

Shen Qiuyu secretly gritted her teeth, but a slightly surprised smile appeared on her face: "I really didn't expect Cousin Lan to be willing to give me such a good jade as a congratulatory gift, thank you Cousin Lan." ”

Only then did everyone react and immediately laughed in agreement. This piece of jade directly compares all the previous congratulatory gifts. Obviously, Ye Qinglan came prepared!

The only ugly person is naturally the Feng who made ridiculous and provocative remarks.

Feng Shi looked at the piece of jade, and only felt that his face was hot. In front of so many people, it's really a shame today......

Doesn't it mean that Ye Qinglan is an unfavored concubine? How can you come up with such a congratulatory gift?

Ye Qinglan was in the limelight, but she did not take advantage of the victory to pursue.

On an occasion like today, it's really ugly to make a fuss. If it alarms the prince, it will not be beautiful. Anyway, everyone knows that in this game, they won the scenery and beauty!

It's just that I don't know, does Shen Qiuyu have any follow-up moves......

Today's big seal is '(*n_n*)' three more to celebrate, this is the second watch, and there is a more at six o'clock in the evening~ (to be continued......)
