When it was time to open the banquet, the three ladies and Rong Niangzi entered the front hall together, and the wives and grandmothers of each family waved to their own girls and called to their sides, asking a few words from time to time to say something like how good they were playing.

Subsequently, the lady who everyone said was good also came in with the girl, and after giving Mrs. Yu a salute, she sat aside with a gentle smile and said nothing, and for a while, she was praised for a while.

Mrs. Rong said that the hairpin was good-looking, and that said that the clothes were good-looking, and that was the most fashionable color of the year, and there were praises for the good embroidery of others, and the embroidered flowers were fresh, and there were praises for who wrote well and painted well.

Mrs. Rong smiled and said to Mrs. Xing: "Look at these girls, I think of when we were young, and we were like them at that time, so many years have passed in a blink of an eye, and the girls in our family have also reached such an old age. ”

Mrs. Xing also smiled: "It's not like that, when I think of the situation in the boudoir, it seems like yesterday." ”

While talking, I saw the girl serving the dishes, and I didn't know whose little lady was unprepared for a while, so she actually got the vegetable soup on the jade lady and the third lady, she saw that something was wrong, and quickly got up and apologized with a sad face.

The jade lady did not have the slightest displeasure on her face, she only said softly, and persuaded the little lady not to worry, but how unhappy the third lady was, although she said that it was okay, but her face brought out some anger.

Mrs. Xing looked at it and whispered to Mrs. Rong: "The lady of the Yu family is calm and a little quiet. Compared with her, my sister is far behind. ”

Mrs. Rong pursed her lips secretly, saying in her heart that this is not calm, her niece has always been like this, as if she would not be angry, but she said: "Where, your sister is so good, what to do at a young age is so steady, there is no twilight, but it is not as fresh as your sister." ”

Mrs. Xing was humble. However, in the end, I still think that the jade lady is good. But the good ones are a little unreal, but they are really not as good as their own sisters.

For a while, when the Jade Lady and the Third Lady changed their clothes and entered the table again, the room was full of voices praising the Lady Jade, although the Third Lady felt a little aggrieved. I don't feel happy. I thought that this was someone else's house. So many people watched and endured it in the end.

When the feast is eaten and the guests are gone. Mrs. Rong helped Mrs. Rong watch the girl clean up the mess, and whispered to Mrs. Rong: "Auntie's eyes are now getting longer and longer to the zenith, and I look down on our family, when I was in the garden, I listened to the girl with my cousin talking, and only said that my cousin's character and appearance can be married to anyone, that is, to marry high, the prince's house, and the mansion of the grandfather, and also said that I have such a temperament, I am afraid that I will only have a low marriage in the future, mother, you say, if it is not for the aunt's words to reveal such a meaning, can the girl say that." ”

Speaking of which, Rong Niangzi is a little unhappy.

Mrs. Rong was also angry in her heart, but persuaded Mrs. Rong: "Don't care what she does, you don't know your aunt's temperament, she is the one who hates the poor and loves the rich, but I don't know how she taught such a girl, it's really not the same as your aunt's temperament." ”

"Who knows." Rong Niangzi thought of the temperament of the jade lady: "My cousin is good, she has never been a good person, and she is also a good-tempered person, but in the end, she is a little weaker, and she marries into a high-ranking family, and she doesn't know how many days she can live, even if she marries into a small family, she can't be a master of the family." ”

Mrs. Rong sighed: "I once told your aunt to ask her to find your cousin who is not too high, and she is not the eldest son and grandson of the family, according to your cousin's temperament, you can get by, but your aunt just doesn't listen, she is now angry, she just wants to use your cousin to climb the high branches, and wait, sooner or later, something will happen." ”

At this point, neither mother nor daughter spoke.

Even when the third lady and Mrs. Xing walked back, they were also talking about the jade lady, and Mrs. Xing felt that the jade lady was very good, but the third lady felt bad, but she couldn't say what was wrong, and she always felt very awkward.

When she was about to get home, Mrs. Xing sighed: "How good it would be if I could receive a post from Princess Xiangyang's mansion, everyone who goes there has a head and a face, and I can't say that I can find a good family for you." ”

The third lady of Xing felt that she was too high, and she was looked down upon if she was not in the right household, so she also persuaded Mrs. Xing a few words.

When the mother and daughter arrived home, they saw the housekeeper coming forward happily, first saw Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Xingsan, and said with a smile: "Mrs., great joy, great joy, Xiangyang Princess Mansion has just made a post, please Mrs. and Mrs. to participate in the flower viewing banquet." ”

"Really?" Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Xing's eyes lit up at the same time.

"Absolutely." The housekeeper put the post on with a smile on his face, and Mrs. Xing took a look, it was indeed the Xiangyang Princess's Mansion, not to mention the side, just when the gilded edge of the fragrant paper looked extremely valuable, where could ordinary people have, they couldn't help but be more and more happy.

In addition to the criminal family, Mrs. Yu also received a post after returning home with Mrs. Yu, Mrs. Yu became more and more excited, only felt that the reputation of Mrs. Yu even knew the princess of Xiangyang, she was very happy, and said strangely: "Look no, my mother is right, women should be chaste and quiet, but your aunt will not teach the girl, teach your cousin that way, now look at you are only a head taller than your cousin, and in a few years you will look, you are high, she can't even pick up your side." ”

The jade lady whispered: "My mother is like this, and my cousin is not good after all. ”

But when she spoke like this, the eyebrows under her eyes were a little complacent, Mrs. Yu knew her own girl best, and when she saw the appearance of Mrs. Yu, she smiled even more proudly.

It's just that the Rong family, which they don't like, also received posts, and in addition, several other families also got posts.

Speaking of which, it is still Ji Songxian's credit to these families, Ji Songxian wanted to find a time to see those little ladies, but he couldn't act rashly, so he thought of Princess Xiangyang's flower viewing banquet and went to ask Princess Xiangyang for a few more copies.

Naturally, this matter is just a trivial matter for Princess Xiangyang, and naturally there is nothing to be allowed.

On the day of the flower viewing banquet, Ji Songxian went to the princess's mansion early, first gossiped with the princess for a while, and only got up to greet him when he heard that Wu and Ji Xin were coming, and for a while, many wives and grandmothers came, Ji Songxian secretly observed the little ladies brought by each family, and found that there were many good ones, and there was a family of concubines who were the most beautiful, and they spoke kindly and smartly, and they looked very good, but Ji Songxian looked at the concubines of this family but cowered and quailed, and he had a good impression of the concubine.

Not only Ji Songxian was observing, but Ji Xin was also trying his best to talk to the little ladies of each family, and after talking for a while, Ji Xin came to find Ji Songxian under the pretext of being thirsty, and pulled Ji Songxian and whispered: "The concubine of the Shen Shilang family of the Ministry of Rites is really good, but his family is also weird, but the concubine looks like that, I feel awkward when I look at it." ”

Ji Songxian whispered: "Shen Shilang's wife and aunt gave birth in one day, who knows what happened inside, so that the concubine was raised like that." ”

As soon as she said this, Ji Xin thought about it for a while, and figured out a lot of unsightly bloody deeds, and she didn't dare to say anything at the moment.

After a while, Ji Songxian's favorite Yu family, the criminal family, and the wives and ladies of the Rong family also came, Ji Songxian secretly observed, and found that Rong Niangzi and Xing San Niangzi were all good, but there were some minor problems, but the jade lady looked good everywhere, and there was nothing bad about it, so she felt very weird, but she didn't like the jade lady in her selfish heart.

Wu Shi was also secretly observing, and it was almost the same as what Ji Songxian thought.

When the flower banquet began, for a while, the whole garden was full of red sleeves, fragrant, Princess Xiangyang looked at these little ladies laughing and playing, and her heart was also very happy, and called a few good people to come over and say something for a while, Wu also beckoned a few little ladies to speak, and those ladies naturally tried their best to flatter, but they also laughed endlessly.

After a while, across the lake, I saw the concubine of Princess Xiangyang on the other side with a number of young sons and brothers, and it was also a leisurely scene.

When those little ladies saw this, they made it clear in their hearts that it was a flower viewing banquet, but in fact, it was also a blind date banquet.

This flower-viewing banquet did not disperse until the evening, and when they left the Xiangyang Princess's Mansion, many people had already made up their minds in their hearts.

When he returned home, Wu called Ji Wei and Ji Zhen and asked, "How is it?" Which one do you like? ”

Ji Wei was a little embarrassed, but he didn't speak, but Ji Zhen didn't know what to do, and said loudly: "Mother, you go to the Rong family to propose, I think that Rong Niang is good." ”

Ji Wei saw what Ji Zhen said, and also said: "Go to the criminal family to propose marriage." ”

Seeing Wu's still a little puzzled, Ji Wei became more and more careful: "Daddy's official position is not suitable for our family to marry such a high-ranking family, therefore, my eighth brother and I are looking for those five or six petty officials, I see that the third lady of the sentence is thoughtful and has a cool personality, so I think it is good, and my mother also knows that her son is not more lively than the eighth brother, therefore, the son wants to find a lively, if he is looking for such a gentle and obedient wood, what is the interest of being in one place for a long time." ”

Ji Zhen also nodded: "The world is full of three from four virtues, only saying that women are chaste and quiet, many other people's girls teach the same as the four books of women, it is really not very interesting, the life of the husband and wife is a lifelong thing, the son naturally does not want to look for that kind of thing, it is not as good as the one who loves to talk and laugh and has some pettiness, as long as she understands the big truth, she can also listen to people's words." ”

Although Wu Shi agreed with his son's words in his heart, he smiled and said: "I asked you to choose a daughter-in-law, and I didn't invite you to talk crazy." ”

Just as Sun entered the house, he laughed when he heard this: "The daughter-in-law has not yet married and started to send people, so don't say such things to your mother, only to your future daughters-in-law, keep them to make them happy." (To be continued......)
