The fifth day of the sixth month was the birthday of Mrs. Jian's second wife, and Mrs. Taiyuanhou had come to Jinan Mansion the day before, accompanied by Liao. In addition to the mother and daughter of the Yan family, there was also Qi Yanran, the second lady of the Taiyuan Marquis Mansion.

Because he came in the name of He Shou, he lived directly in Jane's Mansion.

Mrs. Jian Si originally still had a bit of pickiness, seeing that Miss Yan's eyebrows were like distant mountains and daisies, her eyes were like autumn water, her manners were dignified, she was generous in conversation, and her skirt was not raised when she was blessed, and her earrings were not swaying at all, and she couldn't find the slightest fault, so she was only full of liking.

Mrs. Yan heard that Master Jian Si was a wind~ flow, and she was not very reluctant at first. Seeing that Jian Kangjian and his father are not the same type at all, he is as steady as a mountain at a young age, deeper than her family, and that idea is reluctant to disappear immediately.

Before the two parties who wanted to go on a blind date sparked, the two mothers first identified the daughter-in-law and son-in-law.

Miss Yan was at the age when she first fell in love, and when she learned that she was going to have a husband, she was both shy and apprehensive, and she had painted the appearance of that person in her heart more than once. After looking at Jian Kangjian, he felt that he was far from the person he imagined, and he couldn't help but be a little disappointed.

can count on your fingers, and the limited number of foreign men I have seen are either still childish, or they don't learn and don't know how to do it, and they don't have any ink on their chests. Compared with them, Jian Kangjian is already a rare good match.

After self-hypnosis, three points of heart will become seven points of heart.

Jian Kangjian's mind is full of sage books, his feelings have not been opened, and he has an indifferent attitude towards family affairs. What is Miss Yan's birth and temperament? He didn't care about it at all. It's up to him to call the shots, as long as the adults in the family look at it, it's fine.

In short, this family business is a certainty.

On the day of the banquet, Jian Ying slept enough as usual, got up to wash up, and ate breakfast unhurriedly before asking someone to comb her hair and change her clothes and prepare to go out.

"Second young lady, I'll accompany you." Fang's mother looked worried. "The dishes at the feast are no more careful than those made at home. If you eat something inappropriate, it's a big deal.

I'll be able to keep an eye on you when I go, reminding you what you can and can't eat. ”

Jian Ying smiled and waved her hand. "No need. I'll go sit down and come back. Won't be greedy. Besides, there is Jiang's mother following, if I see something that I can't eat, she will naturally remind me.

These days, Fang's mother has worked hard for me. Don't relax for a moment, just take this opportunity to evacuate. ”

"yes, Mom." Xue Qin took over the conversation with a smile, "The second young lady is going back to her parents' house, not going to the sword mountain and the sea of fire, what can happen?" When you're old, put your heart back in your stomach and rest at home. ”

Mother Fang wanted to say something, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she was preempted by Jin Ping who came in from outside, "Second young lady, the princess has been urged three times, saying that the carriage has been ready for most of the day, why haven't you gone out?" ”

"What's the hurry?" Jian Ying smiled disapprehantly, "It's still early to leave the banquet, and I won't set a table for her if I go early." ”

Not long after Fang's confinement, he thought that he was bloated and difficult to see people, so he asked Meng Xinniang to go on his behalf to show his attention to his in-laws. The two of them went to the same banquet, and there was no reason to separate them.

Although Jian Ying had already asked someone to inform her in advance last night, saying that she would go later, she never expected it to be so late.

After waiting for a long time at the door of the backyard, I saw Jian Ying coming in a soft sedan chair, her face was a little ugly, and she couldn't help but mock, "My brother and sister have such a big shelf, go back to my mother's house to celebrate my birthday, and I have to ask for three times and four times." ”

"It's my sister-in-law who is too anxious." Jian Ying smiled unshyly, "Distinguished guests are often the last to appear. ”

Meng Xinniang was so blocked by her words that she was speechless, and only snorted coldly to express her disdain.

Jian Ying swept behind her, and saw Ming Mei standing there, and couldn't help but bend the corners of her lips, "Aunt Mei is going too?" ”

Mingmei felt the words "Aunt Mei" come out of her mouth, which was extremely harsh, and her fingers tightened under her sleeves. He still made a respectful gesture on his face, and bent his knees, "Back to the second young lady, the concubine is to serve the princess anytime and anywhere, where the princess is, the concubine is naturally there." ”

"What a filial aunt." Jian Ying praised.

Mingmei was also very harsh when she heard the word "filial piety", and a trace of anger flashed in her eyes, "The second young lady praised it falsely, and the concubine is just doing her duty." ”

Meng Xinniang was a little impatient, "Brother and sister, can we go?" ”

"Yes." Jian Ying made a "please" gesture to signal her to go first.

Meng Xinniang glanced at her coldly, and then went out first. They each got into the carriage, left the palace, and went straight to the front street of the pavilion.

Mrs. Jian and Mrs. Jian are not in Jinan Mansion, and Mrs. Jian is the highest-ranking hostess in Jian's East Mansion. Although she repeatedly emphasized that it was not for her birthday, but just to get together with her own birthday sisters, there were too many sisters, and her brother-in-law and brother-in-law took the opportunity to escort their daughters to come to drink, and the table that was originally scheduled for four or five tables became forty or fifty tables, separated from men and women, and placed in the front and back courtyards.

When Jian Ying and Meng Xinniang arrived, the carriage and horse sedan chairs in front of Jian's Mansion were already lined up in a long line. I got off the car and changed to a sedan chair, and came all the way to the Hanging Flower Gate.

The person in charge of welcoming the guests was Mrs. Jian's third wife, and after greeting each other, she asked someone to lead the two of them to the Qinghao Courtyard where Mrs. Jian's second wife lived. Before he could enter the door, he heard bursts of laughter in the hall.

Mrs. Jian Er sat on the main seat, wearing a silk gown with a dark red background and silver silk embroidered with peony and rich patterns, and a white embroidered begonia lake silk skirt, combing a high bun, fully inserted, jeweled, and extravagant.

Mrs. Taiyuan Marquis and Mrs. Yan were accompanied by Mrs. Jian Si to sit in the host and guest seats, followed by Mrs. Fang, and then several prominent female dependents of Jinan Mansion, and the others sat down in the order in which they came.

Jian Wushuang has that calm and atmospheric appearance, from opening his mouth easily, he is extremely insightful as soon as he speaks. Jian Zhuohua's face was full of anger that could not be concealed, and from time to time he looked at Miss Yan who was sitting behind Mrs. Taiyuan with jealous eyes.

When he was talking lively, he listened to the report, "The princess and the six girls of the Ji'an Royal Mansion have arrived." ”

Yan's eyebrows moved, "The sixth girl is the young lady in your mansion who has been raised by Mrs. Jian since she was a child?" ”

"Who else is it not her?" Second Mrs. Jian smiled and said, "It's not that I put gold on my face, my niece is a terrible character, and she is the most articulate." No matter how big your worries are, listen to her and make sure you can laugh.

You'll know when you see it in a moment! ”

"Mrs. Jane personally adjusted ~ and taught it, and there are a few thoughtful people like Mrs. Jian who teach by word and deed, and Miss Six must be outstanding." Yan said with a smile, praising several women with status in the Jian family by the way.

"What's the difference, it's just a child who hasn't grown up." Mrs. Jian Si was modest, and secretly squeezed the handkerchief in her hand.

While speaking, Jian Ying and Meng Xinniang entered the door side by side.

The Marquis of Taiyuan's Mansion looked up as everyone looked up, and the moment their eyes turned from Meng Xinniang's body to Jian Ying's face, the smile suddenly froze.

Mrs. Yan and Miss Yan also showed a look of surprise, Qi Yanran's eyes widened even more, the teacup slipped off her palm, and rolled to the ground with a "pop".
