Chapter 264: Birthday Banquet

Zilan thought that when her father came back, she would let someone order some wine barrels from the spirit wood in the space for her own use, so that it would be better to brew spirit wine.

It's a pity that she doesn't know how to make wine barrels, otherwise she wouldn't have to work so hard, and now she uses oak barrels, which can also be used, but they are far less good than spirit wood.

However, things like custom-made jade wine barrels and jade pots had arrived, and she picked the best ones and took them into the space, planning to use this jade barrel to store the spirit wine in the next batch of spirit wine to see if the taste changed.

Zilan sat on the dresser, and Qiong Xin groomed her.

"Today's banquet is grand, the makeup is dignified, and you can't be rude."

"Yes."

Joan thought about it and chose the most beautiful cloisonné gold ruby-encrusted twig flower, with slender branches hanging from small peach blossoms, dotted with small rubies, and a large ruby above her forehead as the main embellishment to attract attention.

This Huasheng is the latest model that Yang's deliberately found a jewelry building to customize before leaving, and it is a complete set of old craftsmanship with new patterns, complex and exquisite, very delicate and laborious.

Wearing a beautiful and complicated Huasheng is beautiful enough, Qiong Xin gave Zilan an extra peony hairpin inlaid with Dongzhu, the warm Dongzhu beauty is gentle and lush, it will not take away the gorgeous light of the ruby, but can suppress the overly gorgeous color, looking dignified and beautiful.

combed a delicate and lovely full moon bun, which has a bit more cute temperament and will not hide the girl's liveliness and youthful atmosphere.

Qiong Xin matched her with a simple makeup, a light layer of powder, with a lipstick made by herself, light peach blossom powder, and curved willow eyebrows, revealing the freshness and beauty of a girl.

Zilan looked at the mirror and nodded with satisfaction, "Qiongxin's skills are getting better and better." ”

"Miss Xie's compliment."

Joan shook her head happily.

Changed into a bright red sprinkled gold embroidered silver silk Wanfu gown, put on a goose yellow Bafu Xiang skirt on the lower body, looked carefully in the mirror, and nodded after making sure that there was nothing inappropriate.

"Let's have breakfast."

Zilan sat at the dining table in the small hall and spoke.

The maids came in with mahogany trays, and the breakfast was very rich, with steamed buns and snacks, as well as several kinds of cakes and various porridges, side dishes, and so on.

Zilan ate a bird's nest porridge, as well as two green onion cakes and two plates of side dishes, it may be inevitable to drink a glass of wine when she goes today, and then she will be full first, eating a banquet is actually a hard job, and she can't eat enough, most of them are going for socializing, and it is better to eat in advance or you will be hungry.

After eating breakfast, I took the lemonade in Agarwood's hand and rinsed my mouth, and I was finished with a mint leaf.

"The second old lady asked, the carriage is ready."

Mu Xiang came in to report.

"Okay, let's go, have you checked the gifts?"

"Checked and there are no problems."

Mu Xiang replied calmly.

Zilan nodded and took the lead in going out and her grandmother.

The second grandmother and the third grandmother glanced up and down at Zilan's dressing and nodded.

All the way to Cui's house in a carriage, the old lady in front of the old lady personally greeted the guests from all walks of life at the Yimen, smiled and greeted everyone, and arranged for someone to introduce the guests into the door.

They were also introduced into the main courtyard, and there were other ladies and ladies in the house, talking and joking with Mrs. Cui and the two Mrs. Cui.

"Yo! Old lady, your granddaughter-in-law is here. ”

I don't know which lady is joking.

Zilan showed a smile and calmly stepped forward to congratulate her birthday.

"Lan'er greets the old lady, and wishes the second old man a better life than Nanshan and a blessing like the East China Sea."

"Okay, good boy, get up."

Old Mrs. Cui was particularly happy when she saw Zilan coming, and asked people to arrange for them to sit down.

"Old woman, I brought you a gift, but I didn't eat your noodles for nothing."

The third grandmother laughed and quipped.

"Who said anything about you, you're still hypocritical, and I'm too lazy to pay attention to you."

Mrs. Cui gave her a blank look, don't look over her head arrogantly, the two old ladies quarreled like children, everyone was amused, and the atmosphere suddenly became relaxed and happy.

Everyone greeted each other and whispered to each other.

The girl of the Li family touched her hand next to her and smiled at her, "You are Sister Song Zilan, I am Li Qian, my sister is Li Huiru, and Brother Cui is my brother-in-law." ”

She is Cui Rong's sister-in-law.

Zilan showed a smile and smiled kindly, "Hello sister, it's the first time I've seen you, you're a few years younger than me." You're so white-skinned, and you look so good in this. ”

The little girl smiled happily when she got the compliment, "I am just nine years old this year, and my sister is more beautiful than I thought." ”

"Really, thank you."

The two politely greeted each other to pass the time, just as Cui Hao and the old man came in.

There was a small guy behind him, and he brought in potted flowers.

"Yo! What kind of flowers are you moving? ”

Old Mrs. Cui craned her neck and looked curiously.

"Grandmother, I gave my grandfather a gift to show off to all of you."

Cui Hao saluted first, and then let people move to the center of the living room to show everyone, and did not forget to look at Zilan, a touch of surprise flashed in her eyes, she was specially dressed up today, it seems that she is bright and beautiful, and her all-round bearing is full of praise.

"Oops! Is this an orchid? I look like a lotus flower. ”

A lady asked curiously, and everyone was admiring it carefully.

Cui Hao glanced at everyone proudly, and smiled to solve his doubts, "This is a new variety of lotus petal orchid, the only one." ”

"Yo! Brother Hao is amazing, did you cultivate it? ”

Mrs. Li looked up at him in surprise.

Cui Hao smiled, "No, I'm coming with someone." ”

"He snatched Lan'er's gift and borrowed flowers to offer Buddha, which was cultivated by Lan'er, but it was not his credit."

Old man Cui understood as soon as he saw the flowers, except for Song Zilan, no one in the capital has cultivated precious flowers so well, and she is also a unique talent.

"Oh, I see."

Mrs. Li and the other ladies looked at each other and nodded knowingly, with a narrow smile on their faces.

Zilan simply lowered her head and was silent, looking at her embroidered shoes, which were particularly good-looking.

Cui Hao was embarrassed to see Zilan being laughed, straightened his chest, and opened his mouth with words, "I'm coming with my fiancée, is it wrong, it doesn't affect my mind." ”

"Yes, that's right, we didn't say you were wrong."

Mrs. Li and the Cui family are also relatives, so their attitude is more comfortable.

Cui Hao couldn't resist being laughed, and his face turned red, and he muttered, "My manly man doesn't care about you anymore, I'm leaving." ”

The one who strode away ran away.

"Oh! I'm sorry. ”

A group of women laughed at him, Cui Hao almost fell, staggered and ran away, and even Old Man Cui laughed.

"Sister, can you accompany me to the garden for a walk, it's very boring here."

Li Qian shook Zilan's sleeve and was coquettish.

"Okay, Grandma Cui, I'll take Li Qian to the garden to play for a while."

"Okay, go ahead, take care of this naughty girl, don't fall down."

Mrs. Cui advised.

"I'm not naughty, slightly!"

Li Qian stuck out her tongue and grimaced, dragged Zilan and ran out to play.
