Today is the first day of the opening of this troupe, early in the morning Lin Zhang let people go to the lotus pond to pick, and the lotus flowers with dew drops are placed in the white porcelain urn filled with water, which fills the entire Honglu Garden, and the air is filled with a unique fragrance of lotus flowers, which makes people feel refreshed and happy.

The porcelain of the Xia Shang Pavilion can be seen everywhere, in the square pot carved with plum orchid bamboo chrysanthemum, soaked lotus leaf lotus seed tea, in the porcelain plate with hollow inlaid flowers, all kinds of treasured fruits from the spirit fruit are amazing, and there are all kinds of small snacks made with seasonal vegetables and fruits, there are dozens of snacks made with lotus seeds alone, which are all from a pair of skillful hands of the white lotus.

At the end of the song, a new set was changed on the stage, the handsome Danjiao came on the stage, and the lively Ye Hanyan opened, this is Mrs. Lin's favorite play, maybe because of her age, I don't like to watch those sad, this show of talented and beautiful women met unexpectedly, fell in love with each other, and after all kinds of hardships, the story of finally becoming a family won Mrs. Lin's love.

The sky is clear, the willow trees in the garden are swaying by the breeze in the air, and the occasional pair of birds and butterflies fall on the branches.

Chen Yinru sat not far from Mrs. Lin, she looked at the ladies and ladies who were sitting in the garden, and the place on the east side that only belonged to the male guests, each of them seemed to be listening attentively to the story on the stage, and as if those eyes would bend, they kept looking at them, but none of them looked at her.

It's like these ladies and ladies, rushing to listen to the famous actors of Xiyue City singing, one by one dressed up flowers and branches, sitting on chairs and pretending to pose, but which one of them is not thinking in their hearts, this flower viewing party is really a great opportunity, even if you can't talk to the eldest young master of the Lin family, but among the male guests over there, there are many young talents, rich sons, and there are really too many people who are right.

But Chen Yinru is different, she is not qualified to sit around Mrs. Lin, like Lin Wenjuan, coquettish and frolic, she is the granddaughter of Mrs. Lin's friend, but she is neither the granddaughter of the Chen family, nor the granddaughter of the Lin family, she is not as lucky as Xiaobai, she can only sit behind, with her aunt, and these friends who are not Lin Zhang's family, saying extremely polite words.

The harlequin on the stage turned over and fell on all fours, Mrs. Lin was amused and laughed, Xiaobai and Lin Wenjuan, one helped her to smooth her breath, and the other was playing a cool fan next to her, this scene of family happiness deeply pierced Chen Yinru's heart. She secretly glanced at her aunt beside her, only to feel more aggrieved.

If someone else is the second lady, and she looks good and is knowledgeable, maybe Chen Yinru will not be so sad, but it is clear that she was the first to be loved by Mrs. Lin, how could she be preempted by a little white with such an ordinary or even ugly appearance? The Lin family, she yearns for it too much, the rich and noble days, so many girls love Young Master Lin, it seems that it has nothing to do with her, but with Mrs. Lin's words, isn't it just a step away?

Until today, she intended to be promised by Mrs. Lin to be Lin Wenhai's wife, and she only stayed at a thought of Mrs. Lin, for several years, she had expectations but did not dare to show it, but even without this, her uncle and aunt never took her family affairs to heart, she was just a girl under the fence, and it was normal to be looked down upon.

Chen Yinru understood in her heart, why take advantage of her birthday to let people look at the second miss of the Lin family, these ladies and young ladies are not uninterested, and Mrs. Lin will not invite most of the people in Huicheng for this reason, not for Lin Wenhai to see the girl, what else?

Maybe today is an opportunity, on this happy day, wouldn't it be even more joyful if Mrs. Lin approved her marriage with Young Master Lin in front of everyone?

"Yinru!" Mrs. Fucheng next to her gently pushed Chen Yinru on the green screen, "Yinru! ”

Chen Yinru came back to her senses, stared at her, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Green Screen looked at her with some concern, and said, "I look at you as if you're not feeling well, you've been panting, isn't there too many people, do you feel a little depressed?" ”

Chen Yinru shook her head and said with a smile: "I was a little fascinated by what I watched just now, but I was also a little tired from sitting, and I wanted to go over there for a walk." ”

To this distant niece, Chen Jiang once instructed Green Screen, politely and politely, Green Screen nodded and said: "Mrs. Lin seems to have put some melons and fruits on the side of the lotus pond, which is your favorite girl, if you meet someone who is familiar, talk more, stay in the house all day long, take this opportunity to relax and relax." ”

Chen Yinru got up, glanced at a lady wearing gold and silver jewelry not far away, and saluted: "Then I'll go." ”

It took more than an hour to sing this play, and it was normal for some young young masters and young ladies to be unable to sit still, so Lin Zhang's prepared a lot of things, not only melons and fruits by the lotus pond, but also arrow targets and bows and arrows on the grass, and even pen, ink, paper, and inkstone were prepared.

But the male guests also left in groups in twos and threes, but no one called Chen Heng, he drank the icy wine lonely, and after only a few days, he had already lost a lot of weight. was originally the most promising person among Huicheng students, but now he has become like this, which is really embarrassing.

Geely trotted over and said in Lin Wenhai's ear: "Young master, the seafood from Haixingding is here, you hurry up and inspect the goods." ”

"It's good if Uncle Huang can't do this little thing."

"Coincidentally, it was sent by the young master of the merchant."

As soon as Geely's words fell, I saw you Lin Wenhaiteng standing up suddenly, his brows were frowning slightly, full of surprise, this young master is a person that Shang Ting trusts very much, and he and Shang Ting have already negotiated several deals in private, and they also asked this young master to come forward for himself and the merchant. "Brother Yuan Mei is back? Then go and tell your father and let him go with him, so that they can get to know each other. ”

"The master has something to go out."

Lin Wenhai glanced at Old Madam Lin and couldn't help asking, "What's the matter?" ”

Geely dragged him out, and said as he walked, "Young master, don't worry about the master, in addition to seafood, there are a lot of congratulatory gifts!" ”

As soon as the two left, Lin Wenjuan over there was also curious, pulled Lin Zhang's and said, "Brother seems to have something interesting there!" I'll take a look. ”

Lin Zhang was helpless, she left, wasn't Mrs. Lin the only one to accompany Xiaobai, and she was too lonely, but she didn't expect Mrs. Lin to speak, "Xiaobai will go with you." ”

"I'm not curious." Xiaobai said.

"Oops!" Lin Wenjuan dragged her up, "I'm curious!" You're going to be with me! Hurry up! Or I won't be able to catch up with my brother! After speaking, he pulled Xiaobai and ran away.

Lin Zhang sighed and said helplessly: "This girl, she is married, and she still doesn't grow up, just like a child, she can't grow up!" ”

"That's not what you're used to!" Old Madam Lin said with a smile.

Lin Zhang crooked his mouth and said with a smile: "It's as if the old lady doesn't care for her granddaughter." ”

Old Madam Lin glanced at her, restrained her smile and asked, "What did Yue'er do?" ”

"My daughter-in-law doesn't know, but when I heard Uncle Huang say it, it seems that she is from the prefect."

"Nothing followed?"

Lin Zhang shook his head, "Just Uncle Huang himself, the soldiers around the master are looking around for news about my uncle's affairs these days." "When it comes to Chen Heng, especially at this time, Lin Zhang's heart can't help but be angry." Wen Juan's life! ”

"Don't do anything bad." Old Madam Lin was a little worried.

Lin Zhang's was relieved: "No, although the daughter-in-law doesn't know what the prefect asked the master to do, but yesterday Mrs. Dengfeng Taigu told her daughter-in-law a news, the last disaster relief, the garrison handed over a list, saying that it was to be rewarded, our family Wenhai has made such a big effort, you can always drink some soup." ”

Old Madam Lin muttered to the Gu family and said, "If you want to say that the reward is not Wenhai's turn. ”

"Mother, you can't think like that, Wenhai did a good job, and it was because he worked so hard that the Chamber of Commerce was rewarded, but the big guys are all watching! Let me tell you one more thing, do you know who the Qincha sent to Haixing last time was? The eighth son of the emperor in Xiyue City! It's the Emperor Bazi who swept away the beasts of the Hidden Land with the power of one person! It's really a quiet person who does big things, none of us knows, people do things secretly! Lin Zhang leaned over to Mrs. Lin's side, covering her mouth, but she couldn't hide her smile, "My daughter-in-law also heard that the eighth son of the emperor was crowned king!" ”

"What?" Old Madam Lin's pupils were shocked, and the cup in her hand fell on her body, without announcing it to the world, how did this news come about? Meiyu Flawless hurriedly stepped forward, but the turquoise lotus leaf tea had already dazed the dark lotus color Chang Yi embroidered with eight treasures of Ruyi.
