Chapter 70: Flower Viewing Banquet
"What virtue." Yu Mingyi muttered in a low voice, and under Yu Can's slight pinch, he finally maintained a smile on his face, and did not roll his eyes at Jing Wei, who was above the top.
When they got closer, Jing Wei still pretended not to see them, and a grandmother who was greeting the guests happened to see it and took the initiative to step forward, with a kind smile on her round face.
"Mrs. Yu, a few girls, please come in quickly."
Mama looks like she is in her fifties, her round bun is meticulously pulled, and even if her hair is half white, she still looks spirited. She swept over everyone without a trace, and saw that Li Qiaohui's makeup was obviously a little stunned, but it quickly returned to its original state.
Yao recognized that this was the grandmother Sun who accompanied the eldest princess to Yufu last time.
She later learned that Grandma Sun had been by the eldest princess's side for nearly forty years, from a personal palace maid to an aunt, and from an aunt to a grandmother, she had always been the eldest princess's most trusted person.
"There's Grandma Lao." Yao thanked her, and quietly followed her and walked inside, not deliberately currying favor because she was the eldest princess.
Seeing today's scene, Yao has already made up his mind to act in a low-key manner, and if there is a lady who can talk, he will talk a few more words, if not, he should come to join in the fun and have a long experience.
Yu Can has been well-behaved all the way, without looking around, and his every move is in line with the rules of re-learning in recent months.
She did not recover the heart of a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl, and sometimes she was still a childish ball, but today she was affected by the surrounding environment and involuntarily calmed down.
The eldest princess's mansion is full of royal luxury, and the sisters of the Yu family are a little stunned, honestly looking at their noses and noses, and they don't dare to take a breath of air.
Only Li Qiaohui couldn't help but turn her head to look in all directions, and her eyes were too flexible. Sui'er beside her was still sweating profusely, as if she couldn't take a step, and occasionally Li Qiaohui turned around and dragged her.
The usually deserted Eldest Princess's Mansion seems to have entered early spring one step earlier, and the fragrant flowers that bloom in advance compete for beauty, and the girls who come to visit will completely dispel the atmosphere of late winter.
The group of Yufu walked for a long time, and were surprised to find that there were no male guests today, all of them were female guests.
Li Qiaohui saw so many nobles in the capital, and she didn't know where to put her eyes.
She couldn't stop looking at the luxurious or elegant clothes on the others, and her eyes flashed with envy, jealousy and hatred, Xu was too complicated, and she pinched Yu Zhen's hand tightly.
"Hey, cousin, you're hurting me." Yu Zhen's eyes were red from being pinched by her, for fear that she would scream on the spot, so she finally lowered her voice and called out tremblingly.
Li Qiaohui let go of her hand, pulled out an impatient smile and sneered: "Cousin Zhen is really thin skin and tender meat." She saw yesterday that the three girls in the Yu Mansion couldn't be provoked, but Yu Zhen and Yu Min were nothing.
Especially Yu Zhen, her status in the house is not as good as that of a maid, she neither likes the old lady, nor does she invite her father and mother. Li Qiaohui glanced at the clothes and jewelry on her body, and her heart was like a needle prick.
An unfavored concubine and daughter are all better dressed than her, this world is really unfair!
As soon as Li Qiaohui gritted her teeth, her already thick makeup looked even more weird, as if she could swallow Yu Zhen alive with just one open mouth.
Yu Zhen was uncomfortable by her, so she had to silently move a few steps to the side and came to Yu Mingyi and Yu Min.
The group went to the big garden under the leadership of Grandma Sun, and the faint fragrance of flowers suddenly came to the nose, and there was a high stage in the garden, and below it were long tables full of refreshments.
The eldest princess has not yet appeared, and there are not many people in the place where the meal is set up.
"Mrs. Yu and the girls can go for a walk first, there is a thousand bird park in the east, and there are not many girls who love to go. To the west is the artificial lake, where the county lord and the girls like to enjoy the scenery and enjoy the lake. There are handmaidens all over the garden, and they have to tell me what they want. ”
After Mama Sun finished speaking, she left in a hurry, and her back quickly disappeared into the flowers and plants.
There were few people around, and when Yao looked around, they were all unfamiliar faces, and she had no intention of joining in, and planned to take her daughter and nieces to go shopping together.
"Sister Yao!"
Some familiar voices came from behind him, and Yao turned his head to look, and it took a long time to match the woman in front of him with the girl in his memory.
"Sister Xu!" Yao was very pleased, Xu was her friend when she was a girl, and later married into the Fu family of the protector of the country, and the two gradually became less and less.
It's not because the Xu family has changed since marrying into Gaomen, but after marrying, they have their own circles and lives, and the Yao family has been away from Beijing for many years, and it is very inconvenient to contact.
After Yao's return to Beijing, he wanted to ask Xu to come out and sit down, but when she heard her sister-in-law say that Xu had been sincerely worshipping Buddha at home for nearly half a year, she didn't bother.
The Xu family is married to Fu Jinghao, the third son of the protector of the country, and the two have only one married daughter under their knees, and they have never had children in these years. The Fu family has never embarrassed her, and she felt guilty in her own heart, so she decided to meditate and practice at home.
"Look at you, it's still the same as before, nothing has changed!"
Xu was happy when he saw the old man, and took Yao's hand and refused to let go. Seeing a few girls around him, Xu recognized Yu Can with Yao's shadow at a glance.
"This is Cancan, right? It's so big, I had to hold it in my hand the last time I saw it. ”
The Xu family is now white and fat, and he can barely see the shadow of the past. Her eyes are gentle, her smile is kind, and there is a faint, soothing scent of sandalwood on her body.
Yao had a lot to say to Xu, and after letting Yu Can and his nieces meet the ceremony, they asked them to take the maids to walk around the garden.
Yu Can responded with a mouthful, and she couldn't sit still for a long time.
"Let's go see the birds first." Yu Mingyi is not interested in boating on the lake, and like Yu Can, she also wants to see the legendary peacock that will open the screen.
Yu Min and Yu Zhen are equally curious, Yu Mingyan has always been absent-minded, and he doesn't care where he goes.
As soon as everyone walked a short distance, Li Qiaohui suddenly shouted softly: "Oh, I want to be Gong, you go first, I'll come in a while." After speaking, he grabbed Sui'er and walked back.
"Hmph, it's better not to come." Yu Mingyi glanced at it with disgust, turned around and planned to continue walking.
Yu Can promised the Yao family to be optimistic about Li Qiaohui, even if he wanted to see the birds, he could only give up. "You go first, I'll accompany my cousin, and I'll come back to you later!"
"There are so many maidservants on the road, and it's not like she can't find them herself." Yu Mingyi looked at her in surprise and grabbed her to prevent her from leaving.
Yu Can pulled out his sleeves with some effort, and when he saw that Li Qiaohui had already walked away, he hurriedly said, "We'll be back in a while." ”
Yu Mingyi pouted, and couldn't help shouting: "Then hurry up, we will wait for you slowly." ”
There are many paths in the garden, and there are beautiful maids standing by every dozens of steps.
What made Yu Can feel strange was that Li Qiaohui didn't ask them where the locker room was, but walked all the way in the direction of the artificial lake.
"Cousin!" The garden gradually became lively, and there was singing on the high platform in the distance, and Yu Can's voice was swallowed up as soon as he came out, and it did not reach Li Qiaohui's ears.
The two pairs of master and servant ran and chased each other, crossing the garden path to the artificial lake, Yu Can thought that she wanted to enjoy the scenery and swim in the lake, and most of them would stop here.
She strode on until she approached the gazebo full of girls.
