Chapter 151: Three Sets of Jewelry
Ji Yanning's etiquette is small, and not many people know about it, although King Xuan and the third prince came uninvited, they were not troublemakers after all, so it passed plainly.
In fact, this is not bad, when she was at the banquet in her last life, there were many people at the banquet, those who knew and did not know, and their eyes were all focused on themselves, some were hot, some were envious, some were disdainful, some were unwilling, and some were smiling but full of contempt.
Although she can handle it calmly, she will feel a little lonely in her heart.
But today is different, most of them look at themselves in anticipation and joy.
After seeing off the guests, it was already dusk.
"Hey, this Shen Qingyi actually gave a gift!" Ying'er frowned slightly when she saw the face written on it.
She and Ziyu Pearl were counting the things sent by the guests in the room, and when they saw Shen Qingyi's name, they couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Ying'er looked up at Ji Yanning, not knowing what to do for a while.
Ji Yanning, who was sitting at the table, stepped forward, glanced at the name and sure enough, it was Shen Qingyi, and stretched out and opened the box, which contained two piano scores.
Ji Yanning said: "Take it." β
Ying'er whispered, and said in a dissatisfied tone: "Why did Shen Qingyi give a gift to Miss, and Miss didn't send him an invitation." β
What's more, their current marriage contract is gone, it is equivalent to a stranger who has met, it was their Shen family who didn't want to get married at the beginning, and now it is also him Shen Sangongzi who has stepped forward, what do you think of Miss!
Ji Yanning said: "Pick a set of pen and ink to return the gift." β
Miss spoke, Ying'er just did it, after all, she couldn't let Miss fall.
Ji Yanning looked at Shen Qingyi's name, and suddenly thought that there was only more than a month left before the imperial examination in Chunqiu.
Her eyes drooped, and she was in control.
There are two people who will move next, Cai Ruheng, the priest of the country, and Hu Yong, the servant of the ministry.
Cai Ruheng used to be Rong Liang's strategist.
Hu Yong is Yan Zheng's right-hand man and his brother-in-law, since Yan Zheng is not easy to deal with, let's send his cronies first.
Several maids were still settling the gift list, and the mother-in-law who was guarding the gate of the courtyard suddenly sent a message, saying that Liu Tingting wanted to see her.
Ji Yanning frowned slightly, how could this Liu Pingting come to her?
She remembered that Liu Tingting's attitude towards her was quite disgusted, but after being warned, she was much more relieved.
Ji Yanning bowed his head and let Liu Pingting enter the courtyard.
"Cousin Ji. Liu Pingting stepped forward with a smile on her face.
Ji Yanning's expression is still faint, I don't know what Liu Tingting's intentions are, in the past, she didn't look at her face and was already excellent, but now she is smiling like this, either a traitor or a thief.
Seeing that Ji Yanning didn't answer her words, Liu Tingting didn't feel embarrassed, and asked the maid behind her to hand over a small box.
"Today is the day of Cousin Ji and Lu, this is my little heart as a cousin. Liu Pingting handed the small box forward.
Ji Yanning was puzzled: "I remember that my cousin has already given a gift." β
Ziyu, who was sorting out the gift list not far away, heard Ji Yanning say this, and responded, and said, "Miss is right, Miss Biao gave a pair of Buddha beads." β
The color of the Buddha bead is not good, it is just a thing that she picks out casually that is not pleasing to the eye, and the discerning person knows that the thing is not worth anything at all.
Liu Pingting sneered and said, "That Buddha bead was opened by the mage, although it is not good-looking, it is an extremely auspicious thing. However, I also guessed that Cousin Ji might not like it very much, so I sent another one over. β
She glanced at the box, her face full of anticipation.
Ji Yanning stretched out his hand, then opened the box, and saw that there was a pair of pearl earrings immediately, the pearls were extremely round, full of color, and they were of the highest grade at first glance.
She raised her eyes and looked at Liu Tingting: "Why did you give me this?"
"Because it's my cousin's courtesy, as a cousin, I naturally care. Liu Tingting said with a smile.
If she hadn't laughed so fakely, Ji Yanning might have considered believing her.
"Purple jade. Ji Yanning called lightly, saw Ziyu coming over, and was about to ask what he was told, but Ji Yanning had already handed over the things in his hand to Ziyu, "Put it away." β
Ziyu bowed her head and took the box.
Ji Yanning said to Liu Tingting: "Thank you cousin for your generosity. β
Although Liu Tingting was distressed, in order to please Ji Yanning, she also let go, and said with a smile: "It should be, it should be." β
Ji Yanning picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.
Liu Tingting asked, "By the way, cousin, why did King Xuan and the third prince come today?"
Ji Yanning shrugged: "I don't know, I didn't invite them." β
"Have you known King Xuan for a long time, are you very familiar?" asked Liu Tingting.
Ji Yanning said bluntly: "I'm not familiar." β
"I don't know how he could come to your courtesy. Liu Tingting said, "Don't lie to me." β
Ji Yanning said: "Do you believe it or not." β
Liu Pingting: "......"
Ji Yanning knew that Liu Tingting had taken a fancy to Rong Che.
But thinking about that guy's skin, he does look good, and it is normal to want to be favored by a woman, but Liu Tingting is like this, Rong Che doesn't like such a brainless person.
Liu Tingting secretly scolded Ji Yanning several times in her heart, recovered her mood, and asked again: "Then how did you meet King Xuan, can you talk about it?" I heard that you entered the palace last time, did you see it that time?"
Ji Yanning glanced at Liu Pingting: "Why should I tell you?"
Liu Pingting looked at Ji Yanning with some surprise, she seemed to be irritated by Ji Yanning's blunt and indifferent tone: "Let's talk about it, there won't be a piece of meat, you won't be so stingy, right?"
Under her gaze, Ji Yanning nodded: "Yes, I'm stingy." β
"Then I gave you another gift just now!" Liu Tingting said angrily.
Ji Yanning looked innocent: "I didn't force you to give it to me,"
"Give it back to me!" Liu Pingting said angrily.
Ji Yanning: "Don't give it." β
Liu Pingting: "!!"
How can there be such a shameless person!
Ziyu and Ying'er were on the side, listening to their conversation, and almost couldn't help laughing.
It is reasonable for the young lady to snatch other people's things, not to mention the things she sent to the door, how could she ask for it back, Liu Tingting is still too naΓ―ve.
Liu Pingting couldn't see Ji Yanning's appearance, she was very depressed in her heart, and said to Ji Yanning: "What do you have to be proud of, don't think that you can hook up with the prince and the prince and get carried away!
Ji Yanning frowned and said, "What do you have to do with your cousin? β
Liu Pingting said: "I don't know shame, but I rely on a face to confuse other people's foxes!"
Ji Yanning said indifferently: "Ugly people are so scolding." β
"Who do you say is ugly?" Liu Tingting was furious.
Ji Yanning raised his eyes and looked directly into her eyes, his eyes were full of indifference: "You can scold a few more words, I don't mind going to my uncle to talk about it in a while." β
"You!" Liu Pingting pointed at her, panicked in her chest, and wanted to scold her, but when she thought of her father's warning before, her heart palpitated, for fear that she would really be thrown to Zhuangzi by her father or marry to a remote place like Ruan Yuqing.
Ji Yanning's gaze moved down to the hand she was pointing at her.
Liu Pingting hurriedly took her hand back.
"Let's see!" Liu Tingting glared at her fiercely, and then walked out of the courtyard.
Ji Yanning looked at her back as she left angrily, and her eyes gradually calmed down.
At this time, the maids have also sorted out and cleared the gift list.
"Apart from the people who came to the banquet today, are there any other people who give gifts?" asked Ji Yanning.
Ziyu nodded and said, "Yes, in addition to the third prince Shen just mentioned, there are also those sent by Lord Cen, as well as Duan Mansion, Li Mansion, and Li Mansion." β
Ji Yanning's head was almost as she imagined.
Of course, the unexpected person was Shen Qingyi.
Their marriage contract has been annulled, and it shouldn't have anything to do with it, but I don't know why, Shen Qingyi's attitude is always so strange.
Could it be that he regretted the marriage contract just because of a game of chess played at the temple fair?
Ji Yanning didn't think she would be so attractive, but no matter what, she would never agree to the marriage contract with the Shen family again.
"Send everything to the storeroom and keep it. Ji Yanning said, her eyes looked at a larger box again, took two steps forward, and asked, "What is this?"
Ziyu said: "Sent by His Royal Highness King Xuan, there are three sets of jewelry inside, all of which look very exquisite. β
Ji Yanning stretched out his hand to open the box, and there were sets of jewelry inside, two sets were made of white jade, and one was made of gold jewelry.
The sterling silver set is a phoenix tassel style, which is extremely delicate and lifelike, even Ji Yanning, a person who doesn't like fancy, thinks it is really good-looking, and the other two sets of white jade jewelry, one is made of magnolia style, and the other is made of gardenia style, which she has always liked.
He had a heart.
The corners of Ji Yanning's lips were slightly hooked, but he didn't expect this guy to be quite good at gift-giving.
Ying'er said, "Is there anything wrong with Miss?"
Ji Yanning's eyes flashed slightly, and said, "It's nothing, that set of gardenias is very good, and I can use it on weekdays." β
Ying'er answered, took out the set of jewelry, and sent the rest to the warehouse for storage.
didn't know that the gift he gave was really in line with Ji Yanning's wishes, at this time, Rong Che was sitting in the study looking at that page of the book for more than an hour, and he hadn't even moved.
There's one more thing on my mind.
Ji Yanning was divorced by the Shen family, which is really pitiful.
Since she is so pitiful, do you want to help her and marry her back to the palace?
But with her temperament, she may not agree to herself.
He is also a prince anyway, is it possible that she can still refuse?
Tangled......
Why is it so hard to do a good deed?
