Chapter 354: Birthday Banquet
Shen Xingyue is also dressed up very grandly today, wearing the formal clothes in the palace, there are almost more than a dozen layers, after being improved by Shen Xingyue, it still looks like there are so many, but in fact, it has been reduced a lot.
The complicated palace costumes are spread out layer upon layer, like flowers blooming, and Shen Xingyue is also more beautiful because of this, and the whole person is like a fairy coming out of a painting, dazzling.
Dong Yu, who was yawning and didn't want to come over before, was also stunned when he saw Shen Xingyue's dress.
She is really beautiful dressed like this, and it is estimated that the ladies and ladies who are here today will be compared to her.
Shen Xingyue got off the soft sedan lightly, she was just dressed solemnly today, but her makeup didn't wear much, she only gently swept her eyebrows and wiped her lipstick.
is also a woman, of course, Mrs. Dong can see it at a glance, and at this time, she can't help but sigh at Shen Xingyue's natural beauty.
"Concubine Yue is so beautiful, I guess there is no one more beautiful than you today." Dong Yu walked over and did not shy away from speaking.
Mrs. Dong glared at him, gave Shen Xingyue a salute according to him, and then said apologetically to Shen Xingyue: "The son of the folk woman is a little reckless, I hope Concubine Yue will not blame." ”
"This palace and Young Master Dong have been friends for many years, and Young Master Dong has rescued this palace from danger several times, and he is a great benefactor of this palace, how can this palace care about these things with him, Madame doesn't have to worry too much." Shen Xingyue shook her head, she was really too eye-catching standing here, and many people passing by couldn't help but glance at her, wondering when there was such a good-looking young lady in the capital.
But if you look closely, you can find that she is wearing a woman's bun, and she is obviously married, but other noble ladies are different.
In Dong Yu's birthday banquet, except for some people he knew, the rest of the nobles were all unmarried, and in line with the wealth of the Dong family and Shen Xingyue's hints, they rushed to come one after another, all dressed up and showcased.
But with Shen Xingyue sitting on the top, everyone else was compared to dust.
Dong Yu looked around and found that it was still Shen Xingyue who was the most eye-catching, so he also found a more comfortable position and sat and looked at Shen Xingyue.
His gaze was not hidden, there were too many people over there, and others couldn't see it, but Shen Xingyue could feel the gaze that fell on him.
She moved, a little uncomfortable.
"Is this palace dressed up too flamboyant today?" Shen Xingyue looked at the nobles who came in one by one, and she couldn't sit still.
It's not that she's boasting, but everyone here, it seems that she is the only one who is the most beautiful.
It stands to reason that today should be the day when Dong Yu chooses his sweetheart, and he steals the limelight from others like this, isn't it?
Sensing Shen Xingyue's crampedness, Mrs. Dong also hurriedly comforted her: "Concubine Yue, you can't say that, you are the most noble woman in the Great Southern Dynasty, if you are compared to those noble girls, it is not right." ”
"Concubine Yue Niangniang will be the mother of the world in the future, how can these ordinary women afford it." What Mrs. Dong said was the Tao, and Shen Xingyue had to nod and continue to sit here, watching the people coming and going below, while also enduring Dong Yu's gaze.
It's not that Dong Yu's gaze is bad, it's just that Shen Xingyue doesn't like this feeling very much, and always feels that her every move is watched by others, and she feels like she is being monitored.
These noble ladies who came over first came to Mrs. Dong to present gifts, and then saluted Shen Xingyue, and then Yingying retreated and found a place to talk with her friends.
However, Shen Xingyue paid attention, there were not many men who came over today, more of them were those young ladies of the family, such an obvious intention of the blind date, a fool couldn't see it.
There is no shortage of people who want to get in touch with Dong Yu, but Dong Yu always sends people away in a few sentences.
When he wants to be good to someone, he can make people feel the incomparable tenderness in the world. But when he doesn't want to deal with others, his speech is often extraordinarily sarcastic, and people can't resist it.
This is the reason why Dong Yu was able to make so many women fall for him before, but he was able to pass through the leaves of the thousands of flowers without sticking to his body.
He is very good at making others like him, but he is not good at handling his own feelings.
Just like today, there was the most beautiful one sitting on it, and he was all interested in the others, and even took the initiative to receive Shen Xingyue alone.
"Actually, there are a few girls around Young Master Dong, who are much better looking than these noble girls, didn't Young Master Dong say that he was attracted to them?" Shen Xingyue looked around, making sure that these were not as beautiful as his original maids, and also asked Mrs. Dong.
Hearing this, Mrs. Dong also looked embarrassed: "Of course I beat those girls' thoughts." But he said that he didn't want to say anything, and said that those were his subordinates, and he didn't want to chill his subordinates. ”
"With such beautiful girls around you, it's no wonder that Young Master Dong is more picky." Shen Xingyue nodded, and for Dong Yu's practice of not caring about anyone today, she also found a reason to round it up.
Mrs. Dong sighed: "After his birthday, he should be twenty-three years old, but this ......"
Shen Xingyue also knew what Mrs. Dong was worried about, but she couldn't persuade Mrs. Dong, so she could only comfort her a few times.
Who knew that Mrs. Dong quickly turned her words to Shen Xingyue, she grabbed Shen Xingyue's hand: "Concubine Yue and Xiaoyu have such a good relationship, they must know what kind of woman he likes, right?" ”
Shen Xingyue shook her head: "He never said this, and I don't know." ”
"But looking at the women around him, they are all good-looking, so maybe they want the most beautiful?" Shen Xingyue speculated.
Mrs. Dong's eyes lit up when she heard this, as if she agreed with her idea, but she walked around the field for a week, and her eyes finally fell on Shen Xingyue, and she sighed again: "If you want me to see, the most beautiful thing in this is you." ”
"It's better for me to go back earlier, and it's not good to cover up the light of other young ladies." Shen Xingyue also knew this, so she sat more and more like a needle cushion.
"It's reluctant, how can you leave halfway." Mrs. Dong stopped him and didn't let Shen Xingyue go.
Shen Xingyue had no choice but to continue to sit down, listening to Mrs. Dong's comments on those young ladies, and it was bound to find a woman who matched her vision and Dong Yu's thoughts.
She could only follow Ying He, and didn't dare to say a word.
After tossing around like this for a day, this birthday banquet was even more tiring than her day's work.
However, in the end, Dong Yu didn't say who he liked, and he didn't pretend to be any kind of to these young ladies, and Dong Yu, who was rumored to be romantic, was completely different.
