Listening to the description of the maid, he sneered slightly, "It's just a clown who jumps off the beam, you don't have to talk to her." ”

Zhu Yan also evoked a hint of a smile, and said lightly, "Why don't I offend people, people want to offend me...... Miss Shu thinks what to do at this time? ”

"It's okay, the girl will sit next to me, that Miss Xu doesn't know each other anymore, and she won't openly embarrass you." Shu raised his eyes, looked at Zhu Yanwan and smiled, "The girl will go home with me after the banquet?" ”

"Okay." Zhu Yan had already heard that although Jing was nominally recruited into the Xu family, Xu Zhao and the Lin family both gave him great respect and let him and Xu Yuqing still live in their own house.

All the young ladies over there came one after another, led by Xu Xingfang and Xu Lingfang, staring at Zhu Yan with dead eyes, but Zhu Yan and Shu sat together and just talked and didn't look up at them at all.

Zhou Ruxin was happy and temperamental, and he didn't want to see these two sisters in his heart, seeing that they were treated coldly here by Shu and Zhu Yan, he forgot for a while that he should stand up as the master to solve the siege, so he simply left them there, and he was busy greeting the other ladies, while explaining, "Mother has been unwell recently and can't come in person, I hope you understand." ”

The relief money stood up, like a proud peony, pursed her lips slightly and chuckled, "Miss Zhou doesn't have to be so polite. ”

Most of the girls present were envious of her temperament, as if she was the leader, and the fat powder sold in Zhu Yan's shop had recently swept the entire Bailang Town, and these girls all admired Zhu Yan very much, and only hoped to have a good relationship with her and get some secret recipes that had not yet been sold.

Xu Xingfang is older, although her face is red and white when she is angry, after all, she can still control her own appearance, but her sister Lingfang is a little girl's temperament, seeing that those young ladies are snubbing herself and her sister, she curses hatefully, "It's just an old girl who can't get married, and she pounces when she sees a man, like something!" Sister, it's not uncommon for us to sit at a table with her! ”

The flower hall is not big, although it is crowded with a lot of people, Xu Lingfang's words are still very clear, the warbler sound inside Yan Yu stopped for a moment, and the young ladies and maids looked at Zhu Yan in a daze, seeing that her face was as usual, and turned her head to look at the two sisters of the Xu family gloatingly-not to mention what Zhu Yan is, this is the Zhou Mansion after all, and the distinguished guests of the Zhou Mansion are wantonly slandered here, and they are so vulgar, I am afraid that the Zhou family will not agree lightly.

When Xu Xingfang heard her sister say such unbearable words, she was ashamed of herself, after all, she was not young, and she was still expecting to marry into a local rich family like the Zhou family. Cousin Zhu is also our relative, how can you talk like this? ”

Xu Lingfang was stunned, looked at her sister in a daze, and didn't understand why she spoke for Zhu Yan in turn, she was angry and aggrieved, and grabbed her sister's clothes, "This is obviously what my sister said herself!" Why do you rely on me in reverse?! ”

Zhou Ruxin saw that they were making a fuss, so her pretty face sank, and she called banana leaves and lotus flowers in a stack, "Quickly pull the two young ladies away, this is not a place for sisters to quarrel!" ”

The other ladies in the flower hall all looked at each other, some lowered their voices and laughed secretly, and some clapped their hands when they saw the Xu family sisters causing trouble.

Zhou Ruxin saw that a few maids and servants pulled the Xu family sisters to the back room to rest, so she smiled slightly, still smiled, and apologized to the people in the flower hall, "It has disturbed the good mood of several sisters and sisters, and Nina is here to make amends for her mother." ”

Eyes turned around the hall, and saw that everyone had accepted the unnatural expressions, and still looked like the ladies were gathered, so he turned his eyes to look for Zhu Yan, and saw that she was still sipping tea lightly, and couldn't help but secretly admire her elegance.

How do you know that although Zhu Yan didn't say anything on her face, she was really annoyed in her heart, but even if she had the heart to confront the Xu family sisters, she didn't say such vulgar words like them, and she was relieved and reminded her to act forbearantly in a low voice, so she had to be "magnanimous" once.

"It's not early, and the sisters can come to a small gathering, and Ruxin is very happy. I want to come to the party at night, and Nina doesn't want to delay everyone's time, so we will have some melon and fruit pastries, and everyone will chat while eating. ”

The maids on both sides of the carved mahogany plates had been waiting for a long time, and as soon as they had given the order, they hurriedly and methodically came up to set out the delicately painted cups and plates.

The pastries contained in it are also small and exquisite, roughly some water chestnut cakes, fried cheese, almond crisp, sesame candy and the like, melons and fruits are the fresh fruits harvested in the autumn festival, all carefully selected to sell the best, cleaned clean, hanging on the bright water droplets, especially attractive.

While tasting fresh melons and fruits at the table, while chatting about the topic of some girls' rouge gouache clothes hairpin rings, it naturally turned to Zhu Yan's newly opened shop.

Zhu Yan listened to their conversation, only to know that the fat powder sold in his shop had basically been popularized among the rich families in Bailang Town, and at first they were just out of curiosity - naturally Zhou Ruxin's praise and publicity were indispensable, and after using it, he found that it was indeed much more comfortable than the fat powder in other shops, and he felt that Zhu Yan's medical skills were particularly magical, so he became a loyal fan of her shop.

For their questions, Zhu Yan patiently answered them one by one, and before they knew it, most of the hour passed, and they didn't even bother to take a sip of tea.

When Shu took her to say goodbye together, Zhu Yan's list would almost not be finished until next year, and he hurriedly fled along the steps of Shu.

In the car, Shu was speechless all the way, and Zhu Yan was also sitting in a precarious position, looking at her from time to time without speaking.

The Zhuangzi of the Shu family was very large, the carriage entered the gate, and walked all the way unhindered, and after half a cup of tea, it arrived at the courtyard where Xu Yuqing lived.

Xu Yuqing was sitting under the porch basking in the sun, her body was healthy, her appetite had been very good, and she had already been a little pregnant these days, so she could not attend today's meeting.

"Ah, Cousin Yan is really here!" Xu Yuqing swept away her sleepy appearance, immediately got up to greet her, and frightened the maid standing on the side and hurriedly stepped forward to grab her.

Zhu Yan looked at the maids who were scared into a cold sweat with a smile, and said softly with relief, "It's okay, my cousin is strong, and it's good to walk more." Saying that, he stepped forward with Shu and pulled Xu Yuqing's fat hand, "Now, Cousin Yu's child doesn't have to hide it anymore." ”
