Five days later, Bai Muguan dressed up and came to the Wei Mansion in a carriage accompanied by Xiangyun and Bilong. The Duke of Wei and the East Palace are not far away, and it takes half an hour to take a carriage.

Before coming to the capital, Bai Muguan loved to ride horses and whip the whip, and she was good at riding horses. It's just that this time is different from the past, she needs to integrate into the circle of the ladies in the capital as soon as possible, and her every move must follow the etiquette of the ladies who have not left the cabinet, and she must not be too wanton and casual.

Late autumn has passed, and winter is approaching at this time, and most of the flowers and plants in the garden of the Wei Mansion have withered, and the scenery is naturally not as good as in spring and summer. The maid in the house led Bai Muguan through the garden and came to the flower hall where today's birthday banquet was entertained.

Shen Fu seemed to be deliberately waiting for Bai Muguan at the door of the flower hall, and was so excited that she stepped forward to feast with a smile: "Sister Bai is finally here." ”

Bai Muguan let Shen Fu hold his hand, and responded with a smile: "Sister Shen, the East Palace is not far from the Wei State Mansion, but it will take some time for the carriage to be slow. ”

Although the two only have a one-sided relationship at the Hundred Flowers Banquet, they look at each other very pleasing to the eye, and it is also fate to leave a good impression of each other.

The Mansion of Wei is bustling today, and guests are like clouds. Although it is not as lively as the Hundred Flowers Banquet, there is no restraint in the rules of the palace, but everyone can laugh and talk freely.

The delicately dressed old lady of Wei sat in the center of the flower hall in good spirits, surrounded by a group of female dependents. The ladies were either flattering or joking, but they were also full of joy.

Without waiting for Bai Muguan to look around the crowd carefully, Shen Fu had already led her to the old lady of Wei Guogong and said with a smile: "Grandmother, you see this is the Sister Bai I often talk about." ”

Bai Muguan stepped forward and saluted, and was generous: "The younger generation Bai Muguan visited the old lady of Wei Guogong, and I hope that the old lady will have today every year, and there will be a present day every year." ”

Seeing that Bai Muguan was not cowardly, and her appearance was even more impeccable, she couldn't help but have a good impression and praised: "In the past, I thought that Fu'er was born with a good skin, but now I can see what a beautiful child is one in a thousand." Lan Xinhui, the two granddaughters of the Rongguo Mansion, is really more outstanding than the other. ”

The old lady of Rongguo, who was sitting next to her, laughed when she heard this, and rejoiced in her heart: "My two granddaughters are much better than my granddaughters in terms of appearance and temperament!" If you are in love with Mu Wan today, you might as well leave Mu Wan in the house as a granddaughter-in-law. ”

These words made the old lady of Wei Guo smile when she heard it: "If your little aunt is willing to nod, I might as well go into the palace to rely on the old and sell the old, and brazenly ask His Majesty for marriage." ”

Everyone knew that it was two noble old ladies joking with each other, but they still looked at each other. Even the daughter-in-law Zhao and the four young ladies of the Rongguo Mansion who were standing behind the Jiang family were envious. Now that the eldest prince has been punished and grounded, Concubine Lin in the palace has been given to death, and the two young ladies of the Rongguo Mansion who were originally going to marry into the Grand Prince's Mansion have no follow-up for the time being.

Bai Muguan lowered her head and smiled shyly, wearing a scarlet dress today, which made her more and more white and beautiful, bright and beautiful. Standing out among the girls in the house, like a shining pearl.

The ladies in the hall looked over from time to time, some secretly amazed, and some whispered to listen to Bai Muguan. On such an occasion, in addition to congratulating the old lady of Wei Guogong on her birthday, the female relatives of various families have brought school-age girls to show their faces, and naturally they have to go on blind dates in disguise. It is impossible for children to do it overnight, and they have to see each other a few times.

"I heard that Miss Shen San of your mansion was born very moving, and today I saw a real water spirit. That kid in my family is eighteen this year, although he is not an outstanding son, in the end he is also the companion of the prince in the palace, and the humble husband ordered me to come today to explore the tone of the old lady and the lady. "The person who spoke was Wu Shi, the wife of Sun Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, who went straight to the point and did not beat around the bush, but was a straight man.

Dai, the current head of the Wei State Mansion, subconsciously glanced at her mother-in-law's expression, and then smiled gently: "Mrs. Sun has raised the little girl, Ling Lang is a famous young talent in the capital, this is a good family matter." It's a pity that the little girl is still young, and my mother-in-law and I have the heart to keep her for another two or three years, so we can't delay Lang starting a family. ”

Such a polite refusal is not a slap in the face.

Although Wu was a little disappointed, he was not annoyed and smiled: "Your mansion is thoughtful, and if you want to complain, you can only complain that my kid is not blessed." ”

The female relatives who were watching around regretted that Sun Shangshu was an official and a square person, and Sun Zhan was a young man in the family. What's more, Sun Zhan is handsome, both civil and military, and has a bright future in the future. Looking at Shen Fu, the third lady of the Wei State Mansion, is petite and exquisite, the charm between her eyebrows and eyes has already been revealed, and she will be a great beauty in two years. In the eyes of outsiders, such a worthy marriage was politely rejected by the Wei State Mansion, which can only show that they have high hopes for Shen Fu.

Bai Muguan subconsciously looked at the calm and relaxed old lady of Wei Guogong, Shen Fu is the most beloved granddaughter of her and Wei Guogong Shen Mohe, who has been carefully raised since she was a child, I am afraid that she has the intention of climbing the dragon and attaching the phoenix.

A tactful and pleasant voice suddenly came into my ears: "Mu Guan, I didn't expect you to be here, let me find it." ”

Bai Muguan looked sideways and saw Yao Xilin, the daughter of the Marquis of Weiyuan wearing a purple Luo skirt, walking towards him.

"Shireen." Bai Muguan responded with a light smile.

Since the last time she met Yao Xilin in Empress Dowager Xiao's Ning'an Hall, it made her feel guilty. The Marquis of Weiyuan was left and right in the court, and the emperor and the queen mother were busy currying favor on both sides, which showed that they were sleek enough. The daughter of Wei Yuanhou and his wife, who was wholeheartedly raised, is naturally also long-sleeved and good at dancing, exquisite and clear.

After the reunion, Bai Muguan was deliberately estranged, where could he escape Yao Xilin's wonderful eyes. The purple-clothed girl's eyes flashed slightly, and her tone was mixed with a hint of grievance: "Mu Guan, you are so unfamiliar with me now, but what did I do wrong to make you unhappy?" When you and I were young, the sisters had a very good relationship, and the parents also had a good relationship, so you might as well say anything to the truth, don't hurt each other's feelings. ”

Since Muguan returned to Beijing, today was the second time they had met, and Yao Xilin had no chance even if she wanted to offend her. Is it a force to ask for an explanation?

"You didn't do anything wrong, so I don't have anything to displeasure about. It's just that I've been away from Beijing for many years, and now I'm not comfortable coming back all of a sudden, and I don't mean to be unfamiliar with you. Bai Muguan smiled at her, and at the same time noticed the two girls behind Yao Xilin, who thought that they should be the concubines of the Marquis of Weiyuan's mansion. When it comes to appearance or temperament, the two girls in the back are far less calm and elegant than Yao Xilin, and taking them behind them is naturally a foil.

As if sensing Bai Muguan's gaze, Yao Xilin subconsciously hooked her lips, turned around and pushed the two girls behind her forward, and introduced: "Muguan, the taller is my second sister Weiyang, and the slightly shorter is my mother's niece Fang Yue." ”

In fact, there is not much difference in height between the two girls, Yao Weiyang in blue and Fang Yue in pink. Both of them are also good-looking, especially Yao Weiyang, who is delicate and lovely, but she looks delicate and timid, and obviously has never seen a big scene. They stood beside Yao Xilin, who was as magnificent as a rose, slightly eclipsed.

The two girls gave Bai Muguan a salute one by one, who told her to hang up the title of General Sipin.

At this time, Lianbu walked over another beautiful young girl, with a demure and elegant demeanor, and a clever smile in her mouth: "It turns out that Sister Yao is hiding here, presumably this is the famous General Bai next to her, right?" ”

Yao Xilin was afraid that Bai Muguan would not know her, so she continued to introduce her familiarly: "This is Sister Lin, one year younger than you, and her father is the current Guozi Priest Wine Master. ”

Bai Muguan smiled and called, "Sister Lin." ”

"I sat far away at the Hundred Flowers Banquet that day, and it was not easy to run to talk, and Sister Bai fell down Shangguan Xiyue with one move, and her appearance was really heroic." Lin Yu'er unconsciously changed her words, and Sister Bai called her very kindly.

"I have a wild temperament and make my sister smile." Bai Muguan replied with a smile.

This Lin Yuer was originally Ye Shiying's boudoir friend, but now that Ye Shiying is the princess, it is not easy to deign to show up, but it is inconvenient to come and go. Seeing Ye Shiying's cousin today, although their cousins didn't look similar at all, Lin Yuer was also happy in her heart.

It's just that when it comes to the pampered and willful Shangguan Xiyue, Bai Muguan frowned slightly, but fortunately, he didn't see her today. Even if she was not afraid of Shangguan Xiyue, she didn't bother to talk to her.

Yao Xilin opened her mouth and smiled: "It's a little boring to stay in this house for a long time, why don't you ask Sister Shen to take us to the garden?" ”

Only then did several girls find that Shen Fu had unconsciously run to Bai Muguan's side, and as the owner, Shen Fu agreed: "I had this intention, but Sister Yao opened her mouth first." ”

Yao Xilin hurriedly covered her mouth and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, blame me for opening my mouth to snatch Sister Shen's words." ”

Shen Fu had to wave his hand and deliberately joked: "You are guests today, you don't need to be too restrained when you come to the Wei State Mansion as a guest, it's best to treat it as your own house." As for Sister Yao, I don't remember the villain for the time being. "After that, don't forget to make a grimace.

"How old are you, why are you still like a child!" Yao Xilin's eyes rolled, and she continued to joke, "I seem to have heard Mrs. Sun discussing your family affairs with your mother just now, and you should leave the cabinet in a few years." I don't believe that you will marry into your husband's family in the future, and you will still be so willful. ”

Shen Fu blushed suddenly, stomped his feet in a hurry, and reached out to pinch Yao Xilin's mouth.

"Sister Yao's words are inevitably said early, Sister Shen still has an eldest sister Yun Ying in the family who is not married, and it is not Sister Shen's turn to leave the cabinet for the time being." Lin Yu'er was kind enough to help, but it was a pity that she regretted it after speaking.

Shen Yue, the granddaughter of the governor of the Wei Mansion, has long been a famous old girl in the capital, and at a birthday banquet like today, she can only hide in the boudoir to avoid suspicion. What I am afraid of is that someone will see her sneering and mocking, but it will ruin the good day of the old lady's sixtieth birthday.

Speaking of her eldest sister-in-law, Shen Fu's eyes flashed a trace of gloom, and she sighed without hesitation: "Grandmother often says that my sister is infatuated, and I knew that I should have locked her in the boudoir a few years ago, if I hadn't had a relationship with His Royal Highness the Prince, maybe my sister would have married and had children a long time ago." ”

The person Shen Yue fell in love with wishful thinking was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Dynasty, if it weren't for that, I was afraid that the Duke of Wei would have come to the door to force marriage.

Bai Muguan's heart was mixed, and Yu Wenye was too blue-faced......
