"The Lei family?" Old Madam Wen immediately got up.

Mrs. Lei hurriedly stepped forward, held the old lady's hand and said, "Old lady, don't be polite, you are an elder, and you should accept my gift." ”

Mrs. Wan next to her was very surprised, when did the Wen family have dealings with the Lei family?

Third Madam Lei accompanied Mrs. Wen and talked for a while.

If it weren't for the purple smoke next to her, and there were guests giving gifts later, Mrs. Wen would probably have pulled her to talk.

Wen Qingzhu sat in his position and looked at Mrs. Lei carefully.

This is Lu's friend Ruan, with slender eyebrows and eyes, a small face with goose eggs, and a smile and a smile, all overflowing with tenderness.

The Lei family has always attached great importance to etiquette, and the Ruan family's every move is with a natural dignifiedness.

Wen Qingzhu suddenly felt good, and couldn't help but think of the time when the Lu family was there, he was also so dignified and gentle.

Mrs. Lei gave a slight salute and slowly retreated.

I don't know if it's her delusion, Wen Qingzhu felt that Mrs. Lei San seemed to look at her twice.

The gifts of the guests from all sides were presented one by one, and the smile on Mrs. Wen's face never broke.

Wen Qingzhu quietly waited for the banquet to begin.

It's a pity that some people refuse to let her go.

"Sister, can I switch places with you?" Wen Qinglan really couldn't stand Wen Qingxin's faults everywhere, so she looked at her and asked softly.

Wen Qingxin immediately raised his eyebrows and said angrily: "What?!" Am I being harsh on you? ”

Her voice was not small, and it immediately attracted the attention of the others at the table.

Wen Qingzhu didn't want to pay attention to it, but she didn't know that Wen Qinglan actually got up and walked directly to her.

"Sister, you can change places with me." Wen Qinglan pulled her sleeve, looking extremely aggrieved, I really felt pity.

Wen Qingxin was just about to have a seizure, but out of the corner of Yang's eye, he found that the old lady looked over and immediately grabbed her.

Wen Qingzhu naturally noticed it, and she didn't reply.

Sure enough, Old Madam Wen said lightly: "Since you don't want to sit next to Xin'er, then go back to your original seat." ”

Wen Qinglan's face froze, she never thought that Old Madam Wen would let her go back to her original seat if she didn't help her!

"What? What I said can't work? Old Madam Wen raised her eyes, her face was very displeased.

In desperation, Wen Qinglan could only grit her teeth and give a salute and return to her original seat.

After one person was missing, Wen Qingxin suddenly felt refreshed, and immediately ordered the maid to move the extra stools.

Looking at the table next to her from the corner of her eye, she saw Aunt Wu holding Wen Qinglan's hand and seemed to be whispering something.

Wen Qingzhu sighed in his heart, but it was a pity for this unexpected gift.

Originally, Wen Qinglan got a little favor from the old lady, but unfortunately she overestimated her favor, and she was stunned to be a demon.

When Wen Qinglan approached just now, there were several black footprints on her instep.

I think Wen Qingxin deliberately stepped on her under the table.

I want the old lady to pay attention to it, and I want not to be targeted by Wen Qingxin, how is this possible.

The current Wen Qinglan is still too tender after all.

Halfway through the banquet, Aunt Wu and Wen Qinglan left the table one after another.

Wen Qingzhu thought of the news that Fu Lie had told her, so she winked and asked Jasmine to follow.

When the banquet was over, Mrs. Wen took everyone to the garden to enjoy the plum blossoms.

Wen Qingzhu quietly fell behind, and Jasmine took the opportunity to follow.

She whispered to Wen Qingzhu: "Miss, the slave maid saw the fourth lady and they went to Wanjin Garden, and met a guest, and the slave maid heard the fourth lady call him uncle. ”

"yes, I see." Wen Qingzhu probably knew what Aunt Wu and the others would do next.

In the plum blossom forest, there are dozens of scattered small tables, on which snacks and tea are placed, and everyone sits down one by one.

As soon as Wen Qingzhu sat down, Wen Qingxin ran over.

She looked at the empty seat beside Wen Qingzhu and asked, "Where is Wen Qinglan?!" She won't be afraid to run! ”

"Eleventh sister wants four sisters? Jasmine, you go and find it. Wen Qingzhu smiled undiminished, and immediately ordered Jasmine to find someone.

Wen Qingxin didn't mean this, so he immediately stopped Jasmine: "You stop!" No need to look for it! It's better if she's gone! ”

"What does my sister think?" Wen Qingzhu pretended to be puzzled.

Wen Qingxin sat in Wen Qinglan's position, looked at Wen Qingzhu and said, "The gift carefully prepared by the seventh sister was robbed of the limelight by the fourth sister, do you admit defeat like this?" ”

Sow discord?

The corners of Wen Qingzhu's mouth curled, and she didn't answer her words: "Where is my sister, it is her blessing that the fourth sister can make the old lady happy." ”

"Why are you always so cowardly! No wonder she's riding on your head! "Wen Qingxin hates that iron can't become steel, and this Wen Qingzhu won't accept it at all.

Wen Qingxin's voice was not small, and many female guests looked over here.

The smile on Wen Qingzhu's face dissipated, and he said coldly: "Eleventh sister, don't slander the fourth sister, and don't judge people at will, this will make others misunderstand!" ”

"Miss Eleven." Aunt Yue on the other side stood up at the right time, looked around and said, "Now that the guests are here, you will be tongue-stricken if you arrange the fourth lady like this." ”

Wen Qingxin looked at it and found that there were indeed many people looking at this side.

She glared at Wen Qingzhu, and could only squeeze her handkerchief and go back to her place.

"Thank you, auntie." Wen Qingzhu got up and thanked him.

Aunt Yue said with a smile: "Miss Seven doesn't have to be polite, they are all a family, this is how it should be." ”

"Seventh Sister." Behind Aunt Yue, Wen Qingmei got up and came over.

Wen Qingzhu looked at her and found that Wen Qingmei was dressed a little elegantly today.

"Seventh sister, I'm bored alone, can I come and talk to Seventh Sister?" Wen Qingmei's voice could be slowed down, and the whole person seemed a little softer.

Wen Qingzhu looked at her, and then squinted at Wen Qingxin, who was unaware in front of him.

Wen Qingxin's rude fuss just now attracted a lot of attention.

Now Wen Qingmei followed closely and greeted politely and politely.

In such a comparison, who is a lady is superior.

However, Aunt Yue helped her a lot, and Wen Qingzhu was also willing to reciprocate.

"Okay, Twelfth Sister come and sit."

Wen Qingmei's face was overjoyed, and she turned her head and ordered the maid to move the low stool over.

After sitting down, Wen Qingmei began to make tea.

Each movement is as smooth as if it had been practiced thousands of times.

Most of the people who came to the Wen family to celebrate their birthday were Jingcheng families with similar status to the Wen family.

There is also a small part of it for the sake of seeing each other.

Wen Qingmei is only nine years old this year, so she shouldn't be in such a hurry.

In the last step, Wen Qingmei took the teapot and began to pour tea.

In an instant, a light and lingering aroma spreads.

Wen Qingzhu couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, it turned out that Aunt Yue really planned to seize this opportunity.

"Seventh sister, can you taste it?" Wen Qingmei picked up the purple sand teacup and handed it to Wen Qingzhu.

"Thank you, sister." After Wen Qingzhu took it, he took a sip gently.

When the tip of her tongue touched the tea, she was stunned.

"What is this tea?"

"This tea is Huizhou Songluo."

Wen Qingzhu heard this gentle voice and immediately got up to salute.

"Third lady."

The person standing in front of him was none other than Mrs. Lei.

She stepped forward and helped Wen Qingzhu up: "Miss Seven is already so old." ”

"Madam......" Wen Qingzhu was a little nervous.

She didn't know if Mrs. Lei was so gentle to her, because of her mother, or because she helped the Lei family last time.

Whatever the reason, she was very worried that Mrs. Lei really intended to get married.

Seeing this, Aunt Yue next to her immediately sent someone to send a low stool over and placed it beside Wen Qingzhu.

Third Lady Lei turned her head to look at Aunt Yue, and said with a gentle smile: "This is Aunt Yue, Ah Zhi often mentioned you in the past." ”

"Third lady." Aunt Yue was flattered and bowed in a proper manner.

She really didn't expect that Mrs. Lei still remembered her.

You must know that in the years since the Lu family married in, Mrs. Lei has only come to the Wen family once.

At that time, she received the favor of the Lu family.

The Lu family is a rare intimacy with the Ruan family, which makes Aunt Yue very impressed.

As soon as Mrs. Lei San came today, she recognized Mrs. Lei San.

After a few people sat down, Mrs. Lei San showed that she was very close to Wen Qingzhu in public.

This not only attracted the attention of the female guests, but also the old lady of the Wen family.

Old Lady Wen was surrounded by the eldest lady and the old lady Wan.

Old Madam Wan looked at Wen Qingzhu and asked with a smile, "When did this seventh young lady meet the third lady of the Lei family?" ”

Old Madam Wen looked at it and didn't know how to answer.

Because she didn't know why the third lady of the Lei family knew Wen Qingzhu.

At this moment, Yang led Wen Qingxin over.

"Maybe Xiao Qi's mother knows her?"

As soon as these words came out, she immediately relieved Mrs. Wen, and she said with a slightly gloomy expression: "I think it should be an old friend of the Lu family." ”

When Lu first got married, he did have two friends who came to the Wen family.

However, the two friends of the Lu family are not high.

So at that time, Mrs. Wen didn't like Lu's association with her friends.

Since then, Lu's friends have never visited Wen's house again.

However, the Lei family is a noble hairpin family, with a very thick background, how could he marry a woman with no background as a wife.

"Then it's better to invite them over, since the people of the Lei family are here, they can't be lazy." Wan Shi also wondered in his heart, would Lu Shi know this kind of person?

Old Madam Wen nodded and sent Songyan over to invite someone.

Songyan came to Wen Qingzhu and the others, and explained his intention with a smile.

At the same time, she also said one more sentence: "The old lady is very curious about how Miss Seven knows Mrs. Lei." ”

Wen Qingzhu and Ruan understood and got up together.

Aunt Yue hurriedly helped Mrs. Lei San.

Third Lady Lei paused, looked at Wen Qingmei and said, "That's your daughter." ”

Aunt Yue was overjoyed in her heart, and nodded respectfully on her face: "She is Qingmei, the daughter of the concubine." ”

"Since they are all daughters of the Wen family, then come with us." Third Lady Lei's voice was a little softer.

Following Songyan to the bamboo pavilion, Mrs. Wen saw Wen Qingmei coming, so she instructed the maid to arrange three seats.

Wen Qingmei was surprised and delighted, she really didn't expect that she would be able to show her face in front of her grandmother.

After following Wen Qingzhu to thank the old lady, she sat down nervously.

As a concubine, Wen Qingmei rarely goes to Fushoutang.

What's more, it was the old lady's birthday banquet now, and she actually sat in the pavilion.

Quietly glanced at the pavilion, only the concubine of the Wen family was sitting here, and the in-laws who had a good relationship with the Wen family.
