Shi Qingluo looked around the hall, and saw the red sleeves standing at the door shrunk his neck as if he was empty, the smile on his face gradually deepened, but the bottom of his eyes was dark.

Zhang secretly scolded Ding Xiuxiu, glared at her and said with a smile: "Blame me, I'm not worried that you don't know how to please your mother, so I asked people to inquire in private, Qingluo, don't be too careful, no matter what you say, you are also a junior, I can't rest assured as an elder, it should be." ”

"Naturally, it should. Shi Qingluo followed her words and said, "Then I will trouble Mrs. Ding to tell me which one is this subordinate who 'cares' about me like Mrs. Ding, and I will treat her more in the future and 'take care' of her!"

Zhang's smile stiffened, and he grabbed the handkerchief, "Hmm...... It's not easy to say, my aunt knows now, since you don't want your aunt to interfere more in your affairs, then your aunt won't ask in the future, and you don't ask who that person is, so as not to get out of your feelings. ”

Zhang's gaze glanced at He Yi a few times.

He Yi and Shi Qingluo invariably turned their heads and showed a sarcastic smile, He Yi sat upright, Shi Qingluo knew this person, and also felt stupid about Zhang's method of blaming others, she propped her elbows on the table, and said slowly: "Madame doesn't want to say it, so don't say it, then Madame came to look for me today, just for these things?"

Zhang didn't know if she believed it or not, and said with a little apprehension: "Naturally not, my aunt came today because she had other things to discuss with you." ”

Zhang settled down, "Xiuxiu's last incident made a lot of trouble in Youzhou, and after Xiuxiu was taught by the princess, she already knew what was wrong, so she wanted to invite this noble girl from Youzhou to come to the house, and let Xiuxiu make up for what she had done before. ”

"I've already asked Mama Zhang to draw up the post, Xiuxiu's last incident was the most sorry person was Qingluo, so you must be present at that time, the right is to ease the relationship between your cousins, what do you think?" Zhang asked cautiously.

Shi Qingluo nodded clearly, "Since Miss Ding has repentance, then I naturally want to sell Miss Ding a face, don't worry, Madame, I will definitely go to the front yard for a banquet at that time." Ding Xiuxiu stood aside and didn't dare to say anything, but scolded Shi Qingluo in her heart.

If it weren't for the fact that she couldn't find a suitable excuse to hold a flower-viewing banquet and design Shi Qingluo, why would she be so discredited.

Returning to Yuxiu Garden from Agarwood Pavilion, Ding Xiuxiu threw out the hat she was wearing on her head, and her face was still dazzling in the yellowish prism. Ding Xiuxiu picked up the ice muscle cream that was placed in front of the table, took out a piece and wiped it on his face, feeling the coldness from the outside in, Ding Xiuxiu closed her eyes as if she was enchanted.

Two days later

On the day Zhang informed Shi Qingluo, he sent the invitation out, and the post wrote Ding Xiuxiu's remorse very sincerely, but everyone who came to the banquet knew in their hearts that this banquet was to see Shi Qingluo's face, Ding Xiuxiu's previous bad things, and her temperament, no one believed that she was sincerely repentant.

It's just that Shi Qingluo made such a big splash at the princess's birthday banquet, and the next day it was rumored that the princess and the prince took a whole three carriages of thank-you gifts and sent her over.

In Youzhou, Youwang and Wang Ye are the people who need them to please the most, whether it is the men in the family who ask them to please Shi Qingluo, or simply to use her to get close to the young ladies of those high-ranking officials. In short, all the people who went to the banquet were going to Shi Qingluo.

In the middle of the Shen period, Shi Qingluo was sitting in front of the bronze mirror to make up, and it was appropriate to pick and choose among the cabinets, pondering which one Shi Qingluo would wear at the dinner.

"Miss, the slave maid will come and dress up Miss. ”

Shi Qingluo's hand paused, looked up at the red sleeves that appeared on his side at some point, and raised his eyebrows slightly, "I haven't even seen you in recent days, and I also know that you used to be with Mrs. Ding, if you are not used to being here, you can also let Mrs. take you back." ”

Red Sleeves took the comb and smoothed Shi Qingluo's hair, and after listening to her words, her hand shook slightly, and she almost didn't tear off Shi Qingluo's long hair, so she stabilized her mind, and replied with a weak heart: "Since the slave came to serve the young lady, then there will be no two hearts." It's just that this Agarwood Pavilion slave and maid are more familiar, those people outside can't do things well, and the slave and maid can still mention a few words, this yard is well organized, and the young lady can live comfortably, so the slave and maid can't go to the young lady to serve nearby. ”

Heyi felt that Red Sleeves was very suspicious, she picked out a lilac-colored dress and put it on Shi Qingluo's side, and stepped forward to pick up the comb in Red Sleeves' hand, "Since Red Sleeves is so busy, let me help Miss make up." ”

Red sleeves retreated back to the side, "I'm not busy, I haven't served Miss for a long time, and I don't feel comfortable in my heart, but it's appropriate for you to be busy these days and your feet don't touch the ground, Miss, if you don't let Heyi, you will rest in Agarwood Pavilion for a day today, and the slave will follow Miss to serve." ”

Shi Qingluo touched his sideburns and smiled at the red sleeves in the mirror, "Just as you said." Rightly, go back and rest today. ”

He Yi narrowed his eyes, and said obediently: "Thank you Miss for your compassion." Then he turned and withdrew.

Redsleeves breathed a sigh of relief. Her subordinates' movements were also very fast, Shi Qingluo did not leave the cabinet, so he only combed half of his hair in a bun, and the rest of the green silk hung down on the white middle coat, and the top of his head was inserted in an emerald green hairpin, generous and exquisite.

Shi Qingluo stroked it and praised it: "Your craftsmanship is indeed excellent." ”

Red Sleeves retracted her hand into her sleeve, "Miss is satisfied with the slave and maid." The slave maid came to change the lady's clothes. ”

During the unitary period, the guests gathered in the plum garden in the backyard of Dingfu, and countless plum blossoms were planted on both sides, and the faint fragrance spread in the courtyard.

Today's attendance is full of noble women, Ding Cheng also invited a lot of men to come to the gathering, weekdays are not serious, when it comes to this occasion, it is natural to be restrained, not to mention that among the men present, there are many people with status, Wei Ziqing, the eldest son of the Taishou family, accompanied his sister to the banquet.

Wei Ziqing, as the son of Taishou, has just been weakened this year, and he is a handsome son, who has fascinated the hearts of many daughters in Youzhou. Therefore, when the women who came to the banquet today saw Wei Ziqing present, they couldn't bear to be shy and excited, that is, even Ding Xiuxiu, who was sitting on her head, restrained her movements, and her heart was beating wildly.

Ding Xiuxiu wore a rose-colored Feiyun brocade winter skirt today, combed a falling horse bun, and her temperament was much softer. She wore a white veil to cover her face, and her eyebrows, which looked a little mean in the past, were now much more pleasing to the eye, and although the guests at the men's table knew her annoying nature, they couldn't help but look at her.

Ding Xiuxiu endured it for a long time, but she couldn't bear it, and was the first of the nobles who were eager to try it to stand up and walk towards Wei Ziqing.

"Brother Wei, the little woman Ding Xiuxiu, offended Brother Wei last time, and specially came to ask Brother Wei for his guilt. ”
