Chapter 275: Qiao's Mansion Birthday Banquet (1)
Chunxi hid outside the house, but she was so happy that she shed tears, and her sister was finally going out to attend the birthday banquet. There are so many aristocratic sons at the birthday banquet, there is always one person who can take a fancy to her, right?
In the house, Ye Mengmeng was pressed in front of the mirror by two girls, smeared here and there on her face, and an hour later, a beautiful woman was also freshly baked.
Ye Mengmeng stood in front of the mirror and took a self-portrait in the mirror, but when she saw the beauty in the mirror, her face was slightly powdered, her cheeks were a little rouge, she was wearing a red palace dress, and a phoenix hairpin pinned her black hair. The eyes are as smart and graceful as autumn water, which is lovable and pitiful; The delicate cherry mouth is cute and charming when she laughs; It also has a waist like a fine willow, and walks like a willow in the wind, with a bewitching posture......
Ye Mengmeng secretly exclaimed, the original body and figure are stunning, not only Grandma Sun and Pearl Mandarin Duck were dumbfounded, but even Chunxi, who was standing at the door, looked straight at her. Her sister hasn't dressed up seriously for several years, and this dress up made her cry beautifully, and her tears couldn't stop popping and falling.
Grandma Sun quipped: "Miss Chunxi can't even recognize her sister, right?"
Chunxi didn't say a word, only nodded stupidly.
Mama Sun smiled and said, "Now that you are dressed up, Sister Ye can go to the garden with the pearl mandarin duck to play, and the guests are all in the garden."
Ye Mengmeng nodded, turned to Chunxi and said, "Let's go!"
Mama Sun hurriedly said: "Sister, there are pearls and mandarin ducks to serve, so Miss Chunxi doesn't have to go with you, right?"
"Why is that?"
"This ...... Sister, it's enough to have two girls to serve, but there are so many noisy people in the garden, each sister can only bring two girls. ”
"So?" Ye Mengmeng thought about it for a while, and said unhurriedly, "That's good, Chunxi must follow me, as for the pearl and the mandarin duck, which of you follow, feel free." If you don't agree with Chunxi to follow, I won't go, anyway, it doesn't matter if my sister goes. ”
"This ......," the three of them looked at each other.
Chunxi hurriedly said: "Sister, it's okay if the slave doesn't go......"
Ye Mengmeng glanced at her. Chunxi had to shut up.
Mama Sun thought about it and had to give in: "Okay, then let Chunxi and Pearl follow." ”
Today is the fiftieth birthday of Grandpa Guo, and the entire Qiao Mansion is magnificently decorated and festive. Since the morning, guests have come one after another, and the entire mansion has been crowded.
Fortunately, Qiao's Mansion is quite spacious, otherwise I am afraid that so many guests will not be able to fit it.
The guests are divided into two parts. The male guests are concentrated in the large flower hall on the left, and the female guests are concentrated in the flower hall on the right.
The servants went in and out, holding large blue and white porcelain plates, and supervised the banquet of delicacies from the mountains and seas.
Ye Mengmeng, Meng Chunxi, the master and servant followed the pearl to the flower hall. There were already a lot of people gathered in the flower hall, all of them were noblewomen and ladies who had come to the banquet, and everyone was delicate and elegant.
As soon as she entered, Ye Mengmeng saw Ye Rong's mother and daughter at a glance. Mrs. Jo chatted happily with the sisters. On the contrary, Ye Rong looked a little unhappy and lonely, sitting with several sisters in Qiao's Mansion, everyone else was giggling and laughing, but she didn't participate.
Zhou sat with several noble ladies and chatted.
As soon as Ye Mengmeng's master and servant walked in, Mama Sun, who was guarding behind the Zhou family, immediately leaned over and whispered a few words in her master's ear.
Zhou's eyes suddenly lit up, and he quietly looked at Ye Mengmeng. Ye Mengmeng didn't realize it, and found a place with few people to sit down.
After all, Chunxi is the first time to see this kind of scene, seeing so many people, her legs are trembling with nervousness, and the strange thing is that her sister is calm and calm.
Pearl approached and asked, "Sister needs something to eat?"
"What?"
"It's not open yet, only tea, pastries, juice ......"
"Juice bar!" Ye Mengmeng said, "If you want orange juice, remember to put two pieces of ice." ”
"Okay, slave go get it!" Pearl glanced at her sister and felt a little strange, but she didn't have anything and turned away.
As soon as the pearl left, Ye Mengmeng was a little funny when she saw Chunxi being so nervous and at a loss. "We just came for a meal, and we didn't let you speak on stage, why are you so nervous? Relax and unwind. ”
Chunxi exhaled, only then did he breathe a sigh of relief, and whispered, "Sister, why aren't you nervous?"
"Why should I be nervous? I'm just going to eat a mixed meal, so there's nothing to be nervous about. Ye Mengmeng smiled a little.
Chunxi looked around, suddenly turned pale, and said in a low voice: "Sister, second sister is over there......"
"Don't worry about her, you should eat and drink."
"But she's already here......"
"Coming here?" Ye Mengmeng raised her head, and sure enough, she saw Ye Rong, who was dressed like a flower butterfly in a palace dress, walking straight towards her.
Ye Rong stood in front of her and looked her up and down, the shock on her face was indescribable.
"You slut!" She glared at her, "How dare you come here?" ”
Chunxi stepped forward in front of Ye Rong and tried to explain: "Second sister, my sister-"
"Get out of here!" Ye Rong pushed Chunxi away, turned around and pointed at Ye Mengmeng and scolded, "Okay, you Ye Meng, I really can't see it, so many years of madness turned out to be pretended?" When did you steal this outfit?! ”
Ye Mengmeng glanced at the side, there were many noisy people in the hall, but they didn't pay attention to her Errao, but Ye Mengmeng knew that someone must be staring at them all the time. Therefore, she smiled unhurriedly and said lightly: "Second sister, this is the Guogong Mansion, and the guests who come here are all well-known figures in the capital. If you want to mess with me, you have to pick a time, right? At this time, do you have any scruples about your mother's face and your aunt's face? ”
"You-" Ye Rong was so angry that she shook her hand and slapped her.
Who knows, her hand was grabbed in mid-air, and she looked back and saw that it was a strange girl. She said angrily, "Who are you? Cheap maid, dare to take care of my sister's affairs? ”
Ye Mengmeng couldn't help but laugh, shook her head and sighed: "With a simple mind and underdeveloped limbs, it's a person like you." Do you see that she is obviously wearing the clothes of a maid in the Guogong Mansion, but she still scolds her? Tsk, some people die too quickly, not because others hurt them, but because they did it themselves. If your shrewd appearance is seen by your aunt, do you want you to be her daughter-in-law? ”
"You-" Ye Rong was speechless for a moment, then she came to her senses, and hurriedly looked up at her aunt over there, but fortunately her aunt didn't look at this side. She breathed a sigh of relief, glared at her fiercely, "poofed", and turned to leave.
