Chapter Forty-Eight: What's Not Worth It
Jiang Qingyue naturally listened, but she didn't want to pay attention to him.
At the beginning of the cocktail party, it is natural to entertain the Jiang family well, the taxes of the store, the previous store bullying customers, and the piles and piles have to be pulled out.
Two days later.
Jiang Qingyue turned into men's clothes and went to point out the venue of the reception in person, and the snacks and the like at the door should be prepared, even if those who can't attend, they can taste fresh.
Every part of it is exquisitely decorated.
Literati love details and should not be negligent.
The sky was bright, and talents from all walks of life came one after another, and the number of people was more than Jiang Qingyue expected.
After beckoning everyone to take a seat, Jiang Qingyue lied, saying that she was the owner of the tavern and wanted to get acquainted with local talents, so she coped with it.
was chattering about this, but there was movement in the place of joining the meeting, which calmed everyone present, and Jiang Qingyue went forward with a mask: "What's the noise?" ”
The people guarding the door looked embarrassed, and the people who could come here were all people with status, so naturally they couldn't say too much: "Master, this young lady only brought an invitation, and it is not in accordance with the rules to have to enter the two of them together." ”
"Well," Jiang Qingyue looked at Jiang Qingyun who was blocked at the door with an embarrassed face, the smile on the corner of her mouth was warm, looking at the cute little girl of Yuxue beside her, the two of them were brought aside, avoiding the visible suffering of others: "Do you two want to go in?" ”
Jiang Qingyun smiled and bowed his head, facing the stranger, full of courtesy: "Master, I'm sorry, I'm the eldest lady of the Jiang family, this is my sister-in-law, originally there was only one invitation, my sister is young, I can't help but be curious, I don't know if the main family can be accommodating." ”
"Brother~ just let me go, I won't make trouble." The little girl's soft and glutinous opening.
It seems that the Jiang family has really been hit, otherwise why would they let their daughter take the plunge and come to such a nameless drinking party.
"Naturally, the two girls are dignified and beautiful, festive and pleasing, how could Bai be so puzzled." Jiang Qingyue was generous and took the initiative to take the two of them in.
Although there are many men, there is no shortage of women, so there is nothing uncomfortable here.
As soon as Jiang Qingyue turned around, she saw the unexpected person.
King Ping!
A human skin mask made by himself alone appeared under coercion and temptation, turned a few steps under his feet, and pulled the sleeve of the person: "Why is the prince here?" ”
"Come here and help you hold up the field." King Ping didn't know what number of steps she took, and she couldn't figure it out in a few steps.
With just a few words on his lips, he had a hot fight with the talented people who had already entered.
Jiang Qingyue watched it from the side, but she couldn't step forward to stop it, as long as she didn't do anything, she went with him.
The invitees gradually arrived, Jiang Qingyue had a number in her heart, and did not invite any masters, everyone sat down, and there were maidservants who put tea melons and fruits, and in the winding waterway next to it, there were also clear springs flowing down slowly, and the chrysanthemum petals floating on it were of different colors.
The delicate and small wooden bowl, holding the clear wine, rippled slightly, and floated in front of everyone with the flow of water.
Jiang Qingyue got up and said the rules of this game: "Thank you for appreciating the light, you can drink the wine at will, the taste of the wine flowing in the waterway is different, you can tell from the wooden bowl containing the wine, the first round is the Flying Flower Order, just start with the word wine, this is not answered, and you will be punished with three glasses." ”
After a pause, he continued to speak: "This cocktail will have a color head, each person has 10 points, one point will be deducted if you can't answer, and the answer will be added according to the situation, a total of three rounds of games, the game is over, and you can get the color head according to the score ranking." ”
Jiang Qingyue's introduction is simple but clear, and everyone naturally understands.
The maidservant girl stood by the drum on the side, and silently counted three times in her heart, and beat the drum, Jiang Qingyue raised her head, and the flying flower order began.
Round by round, it is also lively, the process of the game, everyone plays comfortably.
Jiang Qingyun's eyes fell on Jiang Qingyue from time to time, this person always gave himself a sense of familiarity, a little kind, but he resisted in his heart.
I forgot about the poems and punished three glasses of wine.
The wine was under the stomach, and the face was like a peach blossom, but it made the young talents present focus on her.
After three rounds of drinking, the game is naturally over, the first-class lottery is a huge night pearl, which was taken away by King Ping, Jiang Qingyun's performance is not bad, and he won the second prize.
A table of delicacies was put on the table, and the show had not yet begun, how could people disperse.
Before the meal was ready, a familiar scene appeared, a group of people with the items in their hands directly made a fuss at the door of the cocktail party, and asked the daughter of the Jiang family to give an explanation.
Jiang Qingyun naturally had never seen this kind of scene, and Jiang Qingyue took the initiative to help her: "Miss Jiang, don't worry, if there is a misunderstanding in this matter, just make it clear, I heard that a few days ago, there was such a misunderstanding here, and it seems that it is also the Jiang family's business." ”
King Ping opened his mouth at the right time, and opened the folding fan in his hand lightly: "The girl of the Jiang family before was the princess of King Ping's mansion, and now she has nothing to do with the Zhang Jiang family, after all, it is her maiden family, which made her almost bankrupt." ”
Jiang Qingyue asked Jiang Qingyun with surprised eyes, and looked back at the talented people who came around, and all she got was a positive answer.
Jiang Qingyun was embarrassed for a while, and her little face turned red: "It's not like this." ”
"What's not like that? You owe us so much money, and now you will close the door and pay it back. ”
The people who came to ask for the account were all fierce and vicious, and they didn't take into account that she was a daughter.
Caught in the encirclement of everyone, Jiang Qingyue watched coldly, and when she was most helpless, she stepped forward and said in the face of everyone's accusations: "Everyone, don't be impatient!" If you want to ask for silver, you naturally can't force people to death, how can she have any silver on a little girl? Should go to Jiangfu. ”
seems to be the words of relieving the siege, but in fact, the fire has been completely burned,
Jiang Qingyun fell into a panic, pulled out his thoughts, where did he have time to analyze these pros and cons, and opened his mouth only to thank: "Thank you Gongzi for breaking the siege." ”
"You don't have to thank me," Jiang Qingyue asked someone to bring a carriage out of nowhere: "You go back first, your daughter's house must always pay attention to safety outside." ”
"Thank you, Childe, I don't know Childe's name?" Jiang Qingyun estimated in his heart the value behind the person who could hold this drinking party, if he could help one or two, the predicament of the Jiang Mansion might also be solved.
"In the lower white pine."
Seeing the people leave, the drinking party continued, and there were always people who mentioned this matter intentionally or unintentionally, which made everyone present even more impressed by the Jiang family.
When the guests dispersed, it was already dusk.
King Ping and Jiang Qingyue tacitly did not go with each other, and each changed their clothes and returned to the palace.
"Is it worth it?" When King Ping saw people coming back, he still remembered that day when she was chattering about things for silver, and she didn't forget to ridicule.
Jiang Qingyue stretched her waist and said slowly: "There are many romantic things in the literati's pen, what is not worth it." The token he was carrying in his arms fell down with a clang.
