Yunmeng's festival day has passed, and it is late autumn.

The Pang commander of Peizhou City, the wife of the family loves chrysanthemums very much, especially the yellow chrysanthemums, and the solar term at this time is a good time for chrysanthemums to bloom.

Early this morning, Pang Li, the wife of Commander Pang, sent people to send invitations to the big families in Peizhou City.

At this time in previous years, Pang Li would also send people to deliver invitations. This seems to have become a tradition in Peizhou City.

Liu, who received the invitation, naturally wanted to go, this Pang Li's husband Pang Commander is the leader of this Peizhou City, although his master is in charge of the army of Peizhou City, but in the end it is all for Peizhou City, and the military and government are not separated from this truth, Liu understands it.

Although the Zhao family has been in Peizhou City for so many years and has been low-key, they cannot be absent from the occasions they should attend.

This year, Liu planned to go with Rong Yin with Rouge, in previous years, Rouge's time was always arranged slowly by various courses arranged by Zhao Changqing, and Rouge himself was unwilling to participate in this kind of banquet of vanity and grievances, all of which were gone together by Liu and Zhou Rongyin.

Now, Hazy is pregnant, and it has only been three months, and it is the time when there is a reaction during pregnancy, so you can't go with Hazy.

Moreover, Rouge is about to become an adult, and it is time for Rouge to appear in front of everyone, so that everyone can know the most precious lady of my Zhao family. Take this opportunity to let all the housewives take a good look at each other and leave a good impression on Rouge in front of everyone.

Liu, who had made up his mind, took the invitation and went to discuss with Zhou Rongyin.

Zhou Rongyin saw that her mother-in-law Liu was coming, and she was still holding an invitation with a chrysanthemum pattern in her hand, and she naturally understood in her heart that it was Pang Li's chrysanthemum banquet invitation.

"Mother, what you are holding in your hand is an invitation sent by the wife of the Pang Commander's family, to enjoy the chrysanthemums."

Liu sat down casually and handed the invitation in his hand to Zhou Rongyin.

"Exactly, Mrs. Pang just sent someone to send an invitation, let us go to the banquet tomorrow."

Zhou Rongyin looked at the invitation with a gilded chrysanthemum pattern and frowned.

"This Mrs. Pang is really generous, and this invitation is all gilded, even compared with those families in the capital, it is not much better."

Hearing Zhou Rongyin say this, Liu's face was not very good.

"This Mrs. Pang loves chrysanthemums, and she has to spend a lot of energy to organize this chrysanthemum banquet every year."

"No, this Mrs. Pang doesn't know if she really loves chrysanthemums, or if she loves the gold-like color of chrysanthemums."

Zhou Rongyin's words were said in Liu's heart.

"This Peizhou City, far away from the capital, the people in the city are naturally not as rich as the people in the capital, and the officials can only hold these banquets, obviously to invite the ladies of the family to come to the mansion for a gathering, but in fact, it is just officials with low official rank to pay tribute to officials with high official rank."

"Mother, you know, why do we still go to this chrysanthemum feast every year? Our Zhao family has military power in Peizhou City, so we don't need to pay tribute to them. ”

Zhou Rongyin, who grew up in the palace, grew up like a star holding the moon since she was a child, only others said good things to please her, where do you need her to maintain relationships with others.

"Rongyin, this Pang commander is the commander of our Peizhou City, although your father and Yun Chen control the army and military power of Peizhou City, but our Great Zhou Dynasty Chongwen light martial arts, we still have to have a good relationship with the Pang family.

Your father naturally won't win over the Pang family, the strong dragon can't suppress the ground snake, these things still need us women to maintain the relationship. ”

Over the years, Zhou Rongyin has only been in charge of the affairs of the house, and most of the social interaction outside the house is still played by the Liu family.

Rong Yin is a princess, and it can be said that she has no experience at all in maintaining the relationship, in the palace, there is the emperor and the queen mother who are pampered and married to the Zhao family, the Zhao family has a simple population and is easy to get along with, so naturally there is no need to bother.

Liu's words, Rong Yin listened to it in his heart.

"Yes, mother, daughter-in-law knows."

"Tomorrow's chrysanthemum feast, we won't go with hazy, the boat is tired, hazy This is the first time to be pregnant, and when it comes to pregnancy reactions, it should not be too bothered."

Regarding Liu's words, Zhou Rongyin was very much in favor of them.

"What my mother said is, then the two of us will go to the banquet, or will we go with rouge?"

"Naturally, I went with Rouge, Rouge has never been to this kind of banquet, and it's time for Rouge to appear in front of everyone, so that all the ladies and ladies can see how smart and moving our Rouge is."

"Then does this tell Rouge, Rouge has never been to this kind of banquet, she has a lively temperament, and she must not be able to stand the constraints of the banquet."

"It's okay, when I was having lunch for a while, I was telling Rouge that such a big person can't come by temperament."

After the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law discussed, Rong Yin went to prepare for the fasting ceremony and instructed the housekeeper to send Master Yichen back to Puji Temple.

For Master Yichen's fasting ceremony, Rong Yin is not allowed to be sloppy.

With the personal maidservant, I went to the treasury, found the yellow cloth of the Buddhist scriptures, and asked the housekeeper to take the sesame oil money to the Puji Temple to send Master Yichen back to the temple.

It's noon, it's time to eat.

Liu mentioned the matter of going to the banquet at the table.

When Rouge heard this, he pursed his lips and sprinkled coquettishly.

"Grandmother, I don't want to go to the chrysanthemum banquet of Na Laoshizi, it's boring, I don't want to go."

Liu, who had made up his mind, didn't care how coquettish Rouge was and was unmoved.

Rouge saw that Liu's situation didn't work here, so he turned around and went to Zhou Rongyin's side to be coquettish and cute.

"Aunt, aunt princess, the most beautiful aunt, I don't want to go to the chrysanthemum feast, it's boring, I won't go, you tell your grandmother, can you not take me there?"

Zhou Rongyin is a person who has the same idea as the Liu family, how could he be coquettish and sell cuteness because of a few good words from Rouge.

"No, my aunt can't say this, you have to go to the chrysanthemum banquet tomorrow, in previous years, your sister went with us, and now your sister is pregnant, she can't go, you should also go with us to meet the ladies and ladies of Peizhou City."

Zhou Rongyin's words are reasonable, and Rouge can't refute them.

"Grandmother, I don't want to go, it's boring to go, and I don't know those ladies and ladies, how boring it is to go."

No matter what Rouge said, he couldn't change Liu's decision.

Hazy began to comfort Rouge.

"Rouge, in fact, this chrysanthemum banquet is quite interesting, and there is also the link of composing poetry, your writing is so good, you will definitely win the top spot in one fell swoop, and you can get prizes."

As soon as I heard the prize, Rouge was interested.

Rouge is very fond of all kinds of competitions, has a flamboyant temperament, likes gold, silver and jewelry, and loves money very much.

"Another poetry contest, well, I'll go, so as not to embarrass my grandmother and aunt."

said that the grievances and perfections made everyone laugh.

Zhao Zijun quipped: "Rouge, Rouge, where do you not want to embarrass your grandmother and mother, you just fancy the prize, yes or no." ”

Rouge, who was told by Zhao Zijun, gave him a blank look, hummed, and ignored him.

Seeing this scene hazy, he secretly twisted Zhao Zijun, if Rouge didn't go again, how good would it be.

Zhao Zijun was in pain, and he could only endure it secretly in his heart.

Seeing that her sister hazy had avenged herself, Rouge laughed unkindly.

Seeing that Rouge agreed, Liu and Rongyin were also very happy, thinking that they needed to spend some words, but they didn't expect it to be so easy.

Liu was in a good mood and said: "Rouge, tomorrow is the chrysanthemum banquet held by Mrs. Pang, you go back and decorate yourself, and you must serve well tomorrow." ”

Rouge thought about the poetry contest at the chrysanthemum banquet tomorrow, and it should arrive.

"Got it, grandmother."

After eating, Rouge went back to the yard.

For tomorrow's chrysanthemum feast, I found Yulan to buy clothes for myself.

"Aunt Yulan, tomorrow I will go to the banquet with my grandmother and aunt, you can find a dress for me, and dress up appropriately."

Yulan thought to herself, it was probably a chrysanthemum banquet held by the wife of the commander of Peizhou City.

"Miss, tomorrow's banquet is a chrysanthemum banquet held by Mrs. Pang?"

Rouge didn't know who held the banquet, only that it was a chrysanthemum feast.

"I don't know if it's held by Mrs. Pang, I heard my grandmother say it was a chrysanthemum feast, maybe it's right, I don't know."

As soon as she said this, Yulan knew that it was indeed a chrysanthemum banquet held by Mrs. Pang.

So he began to open the wardrobe and find the right clothes and headwear for Rouge.

Rouge's clothes and headdresses are all made by skilled craftsmen, and many of them are palace headdresses, which are really exquisite and beautiful.

Magnolia picks on the left and picks on the right.

After a long time, I found a yellow embroidered chrysanthemum dress from the full cabinet.

The chrysanthemums on this dress are all outlined with silver threads, which are extremely beautiful, but they are by no means eye-catching, and they will not rob the scenery of the owner's house.

Magnolia took the dress to Rouge and let her look at it.

Rouge didn't know that he had so many clothes, and he was even more impressed by this embroidered chrysanthemum.

But this is chosen by Aunt Magnolia, so it is absolutely right.

Rouge, who has nothing to do, is interested in tomorrow's poetry competition.

I picked up the book on the table and read it.

Rouge's books are not generally circulated on the market, they are Zhou Rongyin's dowry, and they are all brought out from the palace, and many of them are the only books specially collected by Zhao Changqing.

Magnolia herself is not very worried that Ika will take care of Rouge's daily life, and after a few looks, Ika does take care of Rouge, and she gradually relaxes.

Yulan grew up with Zhao Yunmeng, and she was about the same age as Zhao Yunmeng.

Watching Rouge grow up, he never got married, more like Rouge's mother, not like a servant.

Seeing that the rouge was already so big, Yulan was a little sad.

Yulan knew in her heart that when Liu took Rouge to go, he was bringing Rouge to everyone, and in a blink of an eye, Rouge was really going to start looking at others.

On the other side, Zhou Jingya of the Chu family also received an invitation from Pang Li's family.

On the night of the first day of the new year, Chu Changjian rested in Zhou Jingya's room, and the news that Zhou Jingya was favored again spread all over the backyard the next day.

Zhou Jingya's face was full of spring breeze again, and she appeared in front of everyone proudly.

Old Mrs. Chu learned that Chu Changjian went to question Zhou Jingya at the beginning, but she didn't expect to be left in the room by Zhou Jingya and took a sip.

"Fox Meizi, she doesn't have a royal temperament at all, she is really a vixen."

The concubines and aunts in the backyard who wanted to make friends with the Zheng family began to wait and see, and they couldn't make up their minds for a while.

Hu knew that there was a chrysanthemum banquet on the second day, and he was worried that his daughter Chu Jingting's marriage could not be delayed any longer, so he went to ask Mrs. Chu.

"Old lady, I ask you to have pity on your granddaughter Jing Ting."

The arrival of the Hu family made the old lady Chu unclear for a reason, and this sudden pitiful sound made the old lady startled.

"Hu Shi, you can tell me well, what's wrong, what happened to Jing Ting?"

Hu Shi knew in his heart that Old Lady Chu was now disgusted with Zhou Jingya, and she didn't dare to come to ask the old lady before, but now it was different.

"Old lady, Jing Ting is not young this year, but this marriage has not yet been settled, and I am really anxious as an aunt."
