The carriage drove slowly on the bustling street, and the pedestrians on the road avoided one after another, covering their mouths and discussing with the people around them: "Whose car is this?" So magnificent? ”

"Look at the sign on the car, it seems to be from the Zhenguo Mansion." The man said yes, but his eyes were staring straight ahead.

Two sturdy and smooth mane red horses opened the way in front, and behind them were a carriage with elegant lines, topped by white jade, and the white jade beads hanging at the four corners shook and swayed, like rain drops. The carriage was obscured on all sides by expensive and fine blue silk, making it impossible for anyone outside to see through it.

Afterwards, there were ten teams of two-person maids, neatly dressed and bright, and the fragrance was gusting everywhere they went, which made people feel shocked.

......

The backyard of the Marquis of Zhongyong's mansion, Fuyun Pavilion.

Xiao Yijing was sitting in front of the dresser with great interest, holding a begonia flower and shaking it on her head and constantly gesturing.

"Mother! Do you think it's good to wear this or it's good to wear this? She raised the two steps in her hand and asked the white painting screen behind her uncertainly.

Bai Huaping raised his head and looked at her carefully, pointed to the other cloud sideburns, and shook his face: "This is just something to watch." The one next to it is too plain. ”

"I listen to my mother! I'll wear this to the banquet later. She handed Jin Buyao to the maid standing behind her, and asked her to bring it to herself quickly.

Hearing this, Bai Huaping frowned at the distant mountain eyebrows: "What banquet?" ”

"Mother, have you forgotten?", Xiao Yijing looked at herself in the mirror and reminded her: "It's the post sent by Miss Wu from the Prime Minister's Mansion last time, saying that she wanted to invite my sister and me to the Prime Minister's Mansion to enjoy the flowers." At that time, there will definitely be a lot of eunuchs and ladies who will be going, and I can't be compared. ”

As she spoke, as if she was not satisfied, she picked out a pair of white marble bracelets from the jewelry box and put them on her wrists.

"Don't go." Who knew that this sentence suddenly appeared on the white painting screen behind him.

Xiao Yijing's eyes widened suddenly, and she turned her head in disbelief. At this turn, the maid who combed her hair behind her accidentally pulled her hair, she was in pain, and scolded angrily: "A cheap thing with no eyes!" I can't comb my hair! ”

"Second Miss spare your life! Second Miss spare her life! The slave didn't mean it! Not on purpose! The maid knelt on the ground in fear and kowtowed repeatedly, and the sound resounded through the room, and after a while, blood was seen on the ground.

"That's it!" Bai Huaping waved his hand impatiently, "You go down first." ”

"Yes, yes! Thank you, ma'am! Thank you, Miss Two! ”

The room was finally quiet, Xiao Yijing looked at her mother with some grievances, and asked unwillingly, "Mother, why?" I've been ready for a long time! Besides, you agreed the other day! ”

"It's not the same time it used to be. If your mother hadn't stopped you three days ago, but now that your third sister's body has not been found, if you go to the banquet, others will definitely say that you are cold and careless of your sisters' affection. ”

"Humph! That Xiao Yiran is not happy when he dies! I hate her! As he spoke, Xiao Yijing swept the golden steps on the table to the ground, raised his feet and stepped on them vigorously, as if this was Xiao Yiran's face.

"Don't talk nonsense! Beware of bad luck! "White screen warning.

"That's what it was! After so many years, isn't it good for her to stay quietly in the suburbs? Why did you and Daddy pick her up? Now she's dead on the road, and I can't even go to the banquet! ”

"Why is the second sister so angry?" At this time, Xiao Yixian, who was standing at the window, finally finished writing the last stroke on the notebook, she picked up the paper and blew it, and persuaded casually.

Xiao Yijing squinted at her: "If the banquet can't be made, isn't the eldest sister angry?" ”

"What's the use of being angry?" She put down the notebook, shook the lotus step gently, and came to them with an elegant posture, "Even if you are angry, you can't joke with your reputation." ”

"Your sister is right!" Bai Huaping saw Xiao Yixian's calm and generous appearance, and was proud in her heart, this is her daughter!

These two sisters, although she usually spoils her second daughter more, she has higher expectations for this eldest daughter and has paid more attention to her.

"The banquet is gone today, and there will be tomorrow, but if the reputation is gone, it will never be made up for in a lifetime." Xiao Yixian sat down leisurely and preached to her sister.

Xiao Yijing snorted twice dissatisfied.

But although she was unhappy, she still agreed with her words in her heart and didn't make any more trouble.

"Madame! Madam! A woman came running in from the outside.

"What are you doing in a panic!" Seeing her hurried appearance, Bai Huaping said coldly.

"Miss Zhenguo Mansion is here!"

"What!" Hearing this, not only Bai Huaping, but even Xiao Yixian and Xiao Yijing were stunned.

They have never had much contact with the Zhenguo Mansion, how could Murong Liang from the Zhenguo Mansion suddenly visit this time?

The three of them looked at each other with different expressions.

With a restrained look, Bai Huaping got up and asked, "Where are you?" ”

"Right at the door."

"Got it. Go and call some maids, and come with me to the door to pick them up. ”

"Yes." The mother-in-law bent down and retreated.

"Mother, what are Murong Liang doing here?" Xiao Yijing frowned. She had always been at odds with Murong Liang, so she didn't have any joy at all when she heard the news.

"I don't know."

Xiao Yixian stood up and proposed: "Mother, I'll go with you." The daughter is the same age as Miss Murong, so she should be able to speak a little better at that time. ”

"Okay."

"I'm not going." Xiao Yijing leaned on the stool and stopped looking at them.

Bai Huaping sighed helplessly, didn't say anything, and led Xiao Yixian and a group of maids to the gate.

The Mansion of the Marquis of Zhongyong covers a huge area, and is located in the prosperous area in the center of the capital, where people come and go, and it is very lively. At the top of the red vermilion lacquer gate, there is a black nanmu plaque, on which the name of the house is applied gorgeously and beautifully with gold leaf, and the two shiny stone lions in front of the house stand quietly on both sides, all showing the nobility of the high gate.

Xiao Yiran retracted his gaze, lowered the curtain, and said to Murong Li, who was sitting opposite her, "Just send it here." ”

"Good. I'm not going in. Murong Liang nodded, although she still wanted to talk to Xiao Yiran again, but she also understood that now was not the time.

Hand her a baggage: "Wow! This is what you wanted, and I had someone buy it from the store. ”

"Thank you."

Xiao Yiran lifted the curtain and slowly landed on the ground holding the maid's hand.

Everyone standing at the door of the Marquis of Zhongyong's Mansion saw a little girl in a blue emerald smoke skirt coming out of the carriage. She walked to the white painting screen with red eyes, bowed to Yingying, and called softly: "Mother! ”

Everyone's faces changed suddenly, and there was a trace of confusion in Bai Huaping's eyes, but more indifference: "Who is the girl?" ”

"So am I! Mother doesn't remember me? ”

Because of Murong Liang's extravagant carriage, there were already a lot of people gathered in front of the door of the Marquis of Zhongyong's mansion, and now that this scene has been added, more and more people who came to see the excitement gathered.

Someone heard Xiao Yiran report to his home and immediately exclaimed: "Didn't you say that the third lady is dead?" How did you come back again? It can't be a fake, right? ”

"Probably not. Didn't she come in the carriage of the Zhenguo Mansion? ”

"But Madame Bai doesn't know her, what's going on?"

"Hey~ I haven't seen it for so many years, how can I recognize it all at once. Besides, after all, there is a layer of belly, how much attention can you usually pay attention to?"
