Chapter 500: Yan's Tea Party
"Don't, pear. Let him be busy with peace of mind, and there will be nothing to do when he comes back. Yan Shi hurriedly spoke.
A man, he should be out there, especially if he is still busy with the tasks assigned by His Majesty today, then he must be careful.
If one is distracted by going home and does not do the errand assigned by His Majesty, the crime will be serious at that time.
Speaking of which, she feels that she is very engaged now, and the extremely busy daytime looks more attractive than before.
She always knew that Daytime meant to take her and her two children to heart, and that was enough.
She believed that she would come back when she was busy for a while.
"Sister-in-law, you are really a gentle and considerate woman. If my eldest brother bullies you in the future, you must tell me, and I will definitely be on your side. ”
"But according to my eldest brother's temperament, he can't do anything to bully people." Bai Jinli looked at Yan and said.
"Well, your eldest brother is indeed a good one." Yan smiled softly.
"That's okay, sister-in-law, I won't bother you." Bai Jinli didn't say anything more, turned around and left Yan's courtyard.
The next day, it was the day when Yan held a tea party, the sky was clear, the sky was blue and the clouds were white, and the temperature was very good.
The tea party was held in a house not far from their home.
That house was specially bought by Prince Mu and his wife for the Yan family, and it was larger and more elegant than Bai Jinli's current home.
The reason why they chose this courtyard at the beginning, in addition to being relatively close to Baifu, is more because of the exquisite layout of this courtyard, especially the garden inside, which is quite famous in the entire capital.
According to the meaning of Prince Mu and his wife, her daughter has been canonized by His Majesty as the lord of Yong'an, and her status is different from before, so there must be something that can set off her identity.
If you don't even have a house to live in, wouldn't it make people laugh when you say it?
Besides, Yan Yunzhao is the daughter that Prince Mu and his wife have been looking for for so many years and finally found back, they just want to be good to her, and they can't wait to give her all the best things to make up for the suffering she has suffered over the years.
So after buying this house, Prince Mu and his wife specially found someone to renovate the house, and also bought a lot of things to the house.
The clothes Yan and Bai Meng wore today and the jewelry they wore were all specially prepared by Zhang Shuyao for them a few days ago.
Those things are all delicate and precious, and they don't look dazzling, which is especially in line with their temperament.
The Yan family, Bai Meng, and Bai Mo were picked up early in the morning by someone sent by Prince Mu.
Bai Mo was originally going to the academy, but today's situation is special, so Prince Mu specially sent someone to the academy to help him take leave.
The time of the tea party is set at about three o'clock in the afternoon, that is, around two o'clock in the afternoon in modern times.
Since the house has been arranged, the Yan family has only gone once or twice.
Although there was already a maid and a maid who had prepared the interior properly, as the host of this tea party, it was still necessary for Yan to go over and familiarize himself with it early.
Bai Jinli made an appointment with Shen Yun and Zhao Ranran to go to the Koi Pavilion to do a spa in the morning, do makeup by the way, and then go to the place where the tea party was held after drinking morning tea and eating.
By the time the three of them had done this and had morning tea, it was almost noon.
Bai Jinli proposed that it was time to eat, but Zhao Ranran shook her head again and again.
"No, I don't eat, I finally got new clothes and painted such beautiful makeup, if it affects these because of eating, it won't be good."
"......" Bai Jinli and Shen Yun couldn't help but feel a little helpless.
Compared with before, Zhao Ranran at this moment looks like she has lost too much weight.
In the past, she was at least 150 pounds, but now she is at most 110 pounds.
According to her height, this weight can only be regarded as slightly fat at most, and she definitely does not belong to the list of fat people.
And compared to before, she already looks a lot better.
I've never seen her care so much about weight and appearance before, why has she paid special attention to these since she started losing weight.
"You still have to eat the rice, otherwise if you faint from hunger in the middle of the tea party, wouldn't it be even worse?"
"Ah, cousin-in-law, you have a point. Then you say, what do we eat? Can I eat the same food as you? Don't you have to follow the recipe? ”
"It's okay, come with me, just listen to me." Bai Jinli had the tone of a leader.
"Uh-huh, okay." Zhao Ranran nodded in response.
I have to say that the current Zhao Ranran has unconditional trust in Bai Jinli, but whatever she says, Zhao Ranran will listen to it.
In the eyes of others, Zhao Ranran at this moment has a feeling of Bai Jin's pear brain powder.
Shen Yun couldn't help but chuckle as she watched them get along.
There is no way, Bai Jinli has such a kind of magic in her body, and she is quite happy to get along with Bai Jinli.
At this moment, the entrance of the mansion where the tea party was held was gradually lively.
From time to time, a carriage stopped at the door, and when the little man standing at the door saw someone coming down, he went over to say hello, and then after checking that the invitation was correct, he would lead the person inside.
Zhang Shuyao sent out a lot of invitations, all of which were people with some status in the capital.
Those people are all in a circle, and they often attend similar tea parties. Now that they met again, they quickly sat down with people they knew well and chatted.
The specific address of the tea party is the area next to the garden in the mansion, surrounded by pavilions, rooms for resting, and a garden in front of you.
In the garden, there are large patches of peony flowers in full bloom.
The peony flowers are full of flowers, competing for freshness and beauty, looking neat and bright than the flowers outside, very beautiful.
Everyone is a well-informed person, and they have participated in this kind of flower viewing banquet, let alone seen peony flowers, but they were also shocked when they saw this sea of flowers for the first time.
It must be not easy to take care of such a large sea of flowers, and it will definitely waste a huge amount of manpower, time and energy, and it will take special care.
It is no exaggeration to say that this is really the most beautiful peony flower they have ever seen.
In addition to the peony flowers, those who wander around the yard casually with nothing to do soon discover the extraordinaryness of this yard.
Everything in this courtyard is a very precious and excellent material, and it reveals the good fortune of the owner of the house everywhere.
Even the cups and teacups used to entertain them were expensive glass or jade.
After seeing this, the people who came to the tea party became more and more determined to make friends with the Yan family.
It's just that they heard that the Yan family, the lord of Yong'an, had only recently returned to the capital, and had lived in a remote small village for many years.
I don't know what her real person looks like?
It seems that compared with the peonies in the garden, they are more curious about the lord of Yong'an himself.
At this time, the Yan family, who was very curious, walked hand in hand with Zhang Shuyao, and they were followed by Bai Meng and Bai Mo.
Watching them come over step by step, a little maid who was waiting on the scene reminded them loudly.
Suddenly, those who were scattered everywhere admiring the flowers, sitting together in twos and threes and chatting, hurriedly approached and got up to salute them.
"I've seen the princess, I've seen the lord of Yong'an."
"Flatten, everybody sit." Zhang Shuyao's posture was generous and upright.
"Princess Xie."
It was only with this effort that those people secretly raised their heads and glanced at the legendary Yong'an County Lord himself.
This...... This is the county lord of Yong'an, who has lived in the countryside for many years?
I can't see it at all.
They are all people who live in the comfort zone, and although they have not personally experienced life in the countryside, they have heard of and even seen women and mothers-in-law in the countryside.
Those people have been polished by life, they look tired or afraid, even if they are cleaned up and put on exquisite clothes, their demeanor and temperament are still very obvious.
The county lord of Yong'an in front of him looks a little similar to Zhang Shuyao, whether it is appearance or temperament, he is superior.
Gentle and demure with grace and luxury, at a glance it is impossible to find any fault at all, and it is completely different from what they imagined.
"Princess, this is the lord of Yong'an, right? really followed the princess, looking noble and elegant, with an extraordinary temperament. Someone said with a smile.
"Yun Zhao, this is Mrs. Qin from the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Rites." Zhang Shuyao introduced Yan Yunzhao with a smile on his face.
"Mrs. Qin praised it falsely. The lord of this county thinks that all the ladies and ladies who came today are extraordinary, and they are worthy of growing up in this outstanding capital. Yan Yunzhao glanced at the man, and his tone was not hurried.
"The county lord is really a prize."
Next, there is the official and scene of you coming and going.
With Zhang Shuyao sitting on the side, most of the people who came to the banquet were for the sake of having a relationship with the Yan family, and they were all flattering and flattering.
Although Yan Yunzhao was a little unaccustomed to dealing with this, he could barely cope with it.
During this period, those people also asked Bai Meng and Bai Mo curiously, and after learning that they were a pair of children of the Yan family, they praised them again.
After some praise, Zhang Shuyao proposed that today's theme is flower appreciation, everyone can be casual, should enjoy flowers and flowers, should drink tea and tea, and chat.
At this time, someone suggested that the women present could compose poems, paint, play the piano, or sing with the theme of the peonies in the garden.
All in all, there is no limit to the form, whether you win or lose, just to add a little fun to this tea party.
Soon, this proposal was unanimously approved by everyone present.
It is also excellent to be able to show your face on such an occasion, after all, there are many women who are marriageable but have not yet been married.
If they can use this tea party to enhance their reputation, it will also be beneficial and harmless.
Seeing that everyone was so energetic, Zhang Shuyao couldn't bear to soothe their interest, so he arranged for someone to prepare pen, ink, paper, inkstone and other things.
As soon as the things were ready, a woman stood up and took a few steps forward to speak.
"Princess, the lord of Yong'an, the little girl is willing to use the peony in the garden as the background to paint a picture and express her heart."
