Two days later, Jiang Mansion Flower Banquet.

Speaking of the Jiang family of the Tongzhou Wang clan, everyone in the entire Tongzhou city will give a thumbs up! Not to mention the contribution of the Jiang family to several generations of officials, let's just say that this Jiang Chuanhong Jiang, since he was promoted to the governor of Tongzhou, no matter how the promotion order was issued above, he was very persistent in the post of Tongzhou governor. This guard is to work hard for decades to keep a warm and happy pure land for the people of Tongzhou.

Under the rule of Tongzhou, the people are indeed simple, although they have not yet reached the point where the road is not left behind, but they are also governed by Lord Jiang comfortably and peacefully. Yi Xiangxiang also felt that Lord Jiang was really a good official for the country and the people, but occasionally she felt that if Lord Jiang was really a good official, he should not only live in the land of Tongzhou, but should go to a higher place and have more real power to ask for more people's lives! There are times when Yi Xiangxiang stands from the perspective of a bystander, and she doesn't know whether to praise or depreciate.

Of course, praise and disapproval are not something she says. Yi Xiangxiang put aside the messy thoughts in her mind and followed her mother into Jiang's mansion.

The Jiang Mansion is not grandiose, but it has a unique charm because of its ancient and deep depth. The Jiang family is a scholarly family, and they have been officials for generations, although they do not worship the prime minister, but they also have a long history.

Yi Xiangxiang was not in the mood to watch the Jiang family's house, because she didn't rest well last night, and she could only be sleepy and worried today; She pulled her mother's sleeve and walked in, like a child who hadn't grown up yet.

Because only female guests were invited to the flower banquet, after the ladies met Mrs. Jiang in the flower hall, they were led to the garden. Because the Yi family and the Jiang family have had a close relationship over the years, and Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Yi are a pair of old sisters, it is because the Lin family and Yi Xiangxiang have been kept by Mrs. Jiang for a while.

"Is your mother-in-law still strong?" Old Mrs. Jiang Qin took Mrs. Yi's hand and patted it gently, and her enthusiasm was overflowing.

Mrs. Jiang was dressed in a purple robe, and her long hair with a slight silver thread was combed back, coiled into a meticulous bun and fixed with a hairpin ring; Her face is round and chubby, and her kind eyes look like a Maitreya Buddha!

Yi Xiangxiang once heard her grandmother say that this old lady Jiang Qin is a real blessed person. She is the concubine of Kyoto Rui and Uncle Mansion, and the current Rui and Uncle are her brothers-in-law. Although this Bofu is not as rich as the Hou Mansion, it is also a super third-class lord, and Qin, as the daughter of the Bofu, is also outstanding in appearance, and at that time it was also one of the best daughters in Kyoto. Although the Jiang family is a Tongzhou family, and the whole family has also made many contributions to the Li Dynasty, but after all, they have never been crowned marquis, and they are married to Jiang Chuanhong by the Miss Qin family, which can be regarded as a marriage.

However, when the Qin family was enjoying the scenery at the West Lake in Kyoto, they met the humble gentleman Jiang Chuanhong, and they fell in love. When the Qin family returned home, he asked his mother to send someone to investigate, Jiang Chuanhong had been hand-picked as Tanhualang at that time, whether it was appearance or character, he was a leader, and naturally it was basket after basket of praise! Later, after hearing that Jiang Chuanhong accidentally confided that he wanted to be an official in Tongzhou for the rest of his life and devote himself to building his hometown, the Qin family made up his mind to marry such a man with ideas and responsibilities! At that time, Rui and Uncle couldn't resist his daughter, so he agreed to this family business.

However, Qin's choice is not wrong, her married life is also very happy, although Jiang Chuanhong is dedicated to his career, he also loves his wife. Although there are two rooms in the backyard, Jiang Chuanhong almost always stays in the main house, which is many times better than those husbands who are obsessed with flowers and willows. And her mother-in-law was not embarrassed by her identity as Miss Bofu, so she never let her make rules, and handed over the housekeeper duties early. As for the socialization in the circle of ladies, the backstage of the official eunuch family in Tongzhou is not as hard as her, so everyone respects her.

The Qin family has lived until now, and he has hardly suffered any grievances, nor has he endured any difficult days. She has two sons and a daughter, and now her daughter has married into the Hou Mansion of Changping and became Mrs. Hou, and her two sons have been released as officials, and she is accompanied by her sons and grandchildren, so how happy she is.

Yi Xiangxiang admits that she envies this kind of life!

Lin Shi was wearing a dark blue brocade robe with a robe of the same color, and answered Qin's question with a smile: "Okay, my mother-in-law is in good health!" I wonder if the old lady is still healthy recently? In the autumn, the sky is cool, and the old lady has to add some clothes. ”

A few days ago, the Yi family held a banquet for Yi Luo Chuanzhong, and Mrs. Jiang came to say that she was not happy and could not come to congratulate, so the Lin family asked this question today.

Qin Shi said angrily: "Look at what you said, are you treating my old woman as a three-year-old child?" Hum! The old woman has walked more than you have eaten! Qin said and nodded Lin's forehead with a smile, and the two of them were like mothers and sons.

"Good, good! You've done it! Lin didn't argue either, and replied with a smile.

"Humph! As soon as I saw you, I came perfunctory, and I won't tell you! I said to Xiangxiang, our Xiangxiang has grown taller again, looking at the round little face, I really want people to kiss it! As he spoke, he pulled Yi Xiangxiang over, touching his face and rubbing his hands.

Yi Xiangxiang was speechless, her face belonged to the kind of baby fat, and her big round eyes always made people want to touch it twice, and even she couldn't help pinching it twice when she sometimes looked in the mirror. Even sometimes even Yi Ruofu will attack her face when she is not paying attention, not to mention these elders who want to get started.

"Eh, old lady, if you pinch my face again, it won't be cute!" Yi Xiangxiang said coquettishly, completely ignoring the fact that she could have a granddaughter in this ancient dynasty in her two lifetimes, and she was very handy when she talked about it.

There is no way, people are under the eaves, how can they not bow their heads!

Qin Shi scratched Yi Xiangxiang's nose and said, "Okay, good, don't pinch it!" Come, this is a jade bracelet that I just let people turn out of the storeroom, look at the color is more lined with your little girl, Xiangxiang take it to be naughty. As he spoke, he took off an emerald green bracelet from his hand and put it on Yi Xiangxiang.

Yi Xiangxiang saw that the jade bracelet was transparent and exquisite, there were no impurities inside, not even some black spots or white spots, the emerald green with a little yellow, the bracelet was engraved with ice bamboo patterns, the carving was so delicate that there was no flaw, and it was a high-grade jade bracelet. Also, the young lady who came out of the Bofu always has something good in her hands.

Seeing that the bracelet was valuable, the Lin family was about to excuse it in a hurry, but the old lady Jiang Qin took a step ahead of her and said, "It's not for you, what are you excited about?" Besides, the elders can't say goodbye! In the second half of the sentence, she patted Yi Xiangxiang's hand and said it to her.

"This relationship is good, I come to Jiang Mansion every day to eat, let the old lady pinch her face and go back with a lot of things!" Yi Xiangxiang deliberately put her hands behind her back, looking like "I won't return the things if they are given to me".

"Look at your little money fan...... Qin happily nodded at Yi Xiangxiang's head, making the latter call in his heart that he is worthy of being his grandmother's best friend, and he loves to nod people's foreheads!

The three of them were laughing in the flower hall, Jiang Jingshan came from outside the flower hall in a pale pink dress, she was draped in a light gauze as thin as cicada wings, and a pale pink braided belt around her waist was gently held, which made her beautiful figure very exquisite. Jiang Jingshan's facial features are exquisite, her charm is natural, and there is a smile in the shallow pear vortex, and she looks very delicate and lovely.

"I said how to get Sister Xiangxiang to delay the future, it turned out that she was having fun with her grandmother!" After Jiang Jingshan walked in, she saw her grandmother holding Yi Xiangxiang's hand, laughing very affectionately.

Qin let go of Yi Xiangxiang's hand and said, "That's not it, it's like you, a little conscienceless, who doesn't come to talk to your grandmother." ”

"Grandmother has wronged her granddaughter, and I was called by my mother early in the morning to send someone to decorate the garden. No, I'll come to see you when I'm free! Jiang Jingshan shook Qin's arm and sprinkled Jiao, Yi Xiangxiang stood aside and silently stole the teacher, thinking that Jiang Jingshan was really more decent than herself.

"Okay, okay, if you shake grandmother's old bones again, you'll shake them apart! Let's all go to the garden, don't bother my old woman. As he spoke, Qin Shi pushed Jiang Jingshan's hand away, pretending to be disgusted.

Lin rolled up his sleeves and asked at the right time, "Why don't you go to the garden with us?" This walks, and the body is more active. You are hiding in the house when you see the sky, and you are not sick but you are sick! Because she knew that Mrs. Jiang was good friends with her mother-in-law, she was also very straightforward when she spoke. Besides, she also knows that those who have lived to the age of Mrs. Jiang don't like the twists and turns of hypocrisy and flattery.

Qin waved his hand and said, "Don't go, don't go, you go, today is a banquet for your young people, don't go to join in the fun, lest you feel uncomfortable!" ”

In fact, what the Qin family said is not unreasonable, if she, an ancestor-like figure, goes to that pestle, it will indeed make many people care about currying favor with her. Just kidding, let's not talk about Rui and Bofu, now the daughter of the Qin family is the lady of the Marquis of Changping, and the granddaughter is Meng Zhaoyi of the harem, and the backstage is tough! This should be stammered or stammered.

Jiang Jingshan also followed the persuasion for a while, and finally was "kicked out" of the flower hall by the Qin family along with the Lin family and Yi Xiangxiang. Jiang Jingshan smiled and said, "Grandmother is used to being clean and doesn't like to be lively, so please don't be surprised by Mrs. and Sister Xiangxiang." ”

Lin was naturally busy and said that he would not be surprised. So Jiang Jingshan sent someone to lead the way, and the three of them took the maid and the maid to bypass the corridor and cross the rockery, and came to the garden.

The garden of Jiang's Mansion has been arranged extremely comfortably and properly, and the garden is full of fragrant flowers and plants, and the purple and red are reflected in the sunlight with a faint halo. There is a large lush green meadow in the middle of the garden, and now there are small pillars standing on all sides, and an open-air banquet place is set up with plain yarn curtains, and the sunlight shines softly through the plain yarn above, which is very emotional.

The garden is not as displayed as before, the circle chairs and food tables, Mrs. Jiang Zhu ingeniously let everyone sit together into a big circle, and the ladies and ladies sat on the grass with thick cushions, and a small collapse table was placed in front of them to eat. Yi Xiangxiang looked at it, and there was a sense of déjà vu when she went out for a picnic in high school.

When Jiang Jingshan took the Lin family and Yi Xiangxiang over, the ladies and ladies had already sat down, and they were about to get up when they saw them, but they were stopped by the Zhu family and the Lin family at the same time.

Zhu beckoned Lin to sit down next to her, and Yi Xiangxiang was naturally thrown to Jiang Jingshan. The latter brought Yi Xiangxiang to the area of the ladies and sat on the ground, next to Xiao Ling'er.

Yi Xiangxiang thought that if Yi Ruofu also came today, maybe she would have to mix a few words with Xiao Ling'er, then the banquet would be much more interesting. It's a pity that although the other sisters of the Yi family all received the post, they all found excuses and refused.

Of course, if Yi Ruofu knew that Yi Xiangxiang wanted to watch her have fun, she would definitely regret that she didn't move two more pots of flowers.

But it's also strange to say, Yi Xiangxiang thought, this Huang family rejected the post because he didn't want to see his mother's spring breeze, and Yi Ruonan should be racking her brains to think about how to persuade her grandfather and grandmother to let her enter the Hou Mansion, the fifth sister Yi Ruofu was because she had a cold two days ago, so this Yi Ruojiao and Yi Ruofan also rejected the post, why?

If you can't think about it, you don't want to, Yi Xiangxiang never embarrass herself. She looked at the big lawn in front of her, thinking that if it weren't for the hustle and bustle of you coming and going, a picnic would be a different kind of enjoyment.

At the banquet, the ladies and ladies were talking one by one, and the ladies also began to have a heated discussion and constant compliments about the clothes and hairpin rings. However, it is very hard to sit cross-legged on the ground, and it is only a stick of incense that shows effort, and everyone begins to scatter, enjoying the flowers, and appreciating the garden.

Yi Xiangxiang saw that her mother was taken away by the Zhu family to enjoy the flowers, so she could only rely on the small case to take a nap. After a while, he felt that there was a shadow standing in front of him, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that it was not Jiang Jingshan.

Jiang Jingshan smiled and said to Yi Xiangxiang: "Sister Xiangxiang, I'll take you to sit in the pavilion for a while!" ”

Yi Xiangxiang really felt that the sun was very hot even if it was blocked by a curtain, so she got up and followed Jiang Jingshan.

Jiang Jingshan took Yi Xiangxiang around here and there, and picked two pavilions that were already overcrowded, so Jiang Jingshan said: "It seems that if you want to be clean, you have to go inside, Sister Xiangxiang, you come with me, there must be no one else in this pavilion I took you to." ”

Yi Xiangxiang belly, then why didn't you take me there in the first place? She didn't know what lawsuit Jiang Jingshan was fighting in her stomach, but she didn't break it, she just pretended to be happy and followed Jiang Jingshan. To tell the truth, Yi Xiangxiang is not afraid of any conspiracy behind this, Qing Xuan, who is followed behind her, can pick a room of people with a silk thread, Yi Xiangxiang has enough capital and is not afraid of any tricks.

Of course, Jiang Jingshan is not a bad person, Yi Xiangxiang knows that she has something to do, but it is not necessarily that she will hurt herself. Not to mention that the two parents are good friends, it is their elder brother, who is also a close friend who has been friends for many years.

The two took the maid and the maid to turn around several times before coming to the other end of the garden, in fact, Yi Xiangxiang felt that she should have been out of the garden at this time. Jiang Jingshan walked ahead, took her through two more corridors, and then pointed to an octagonal pavilion and said, "Sister Xiangxiang, this is it." The pavilion is called Yanbo Pavilion, which is a good place for our family to enjoy the cool and beautiful scenery. It's a pity that my sister still has to go back to the front to entertain guests, you follow the little maid over, and I will talk to you after I finish entertaining the things ahead. ”

As the host of the Jiang family today, it is also reasonable for Jiang Jingshan to say that she wants to entertain guests.

Yi Xiangxiang looked in the direction pointed by Jiang Jingshan, and indeed saw a chic octagonal pavilion reflected in the green bamboo and cypress, surrounded by flower beds, bonsai, vines, and strange stones.

"Then you can go and get busy, I'll go shopping by myself for a while." Yi Xiangxiang said goodbye to Jiang Jingshan with a smile, and then took Qing Xuan and a little maid in green clothes to the pavilion.

The little maid walked far ahead, Yi Xiangxiang and Qingxuan followed slowly, and the master and servant would pick two handfuls of roadside flowers at one time, and break off a bamboo branch for a while, and have a lot of fun.

Qing Xuan looked at the young lady and became happy, but she couldn't help but be a little worried when she thought that Jiang Jingshan might have other intentions, so she only heard her say to her own young lady: "I don't know what kind of medicine is sold in this Miss Jiang's gourd?" ”

"The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and it stands to reason that she won't do anything." Yi Xiangxiang really didn't think so.

After a short time, the three of them slowly approached the Yanbo Pavilion. And it wasn't until the scenery in the pavilion was revealed that Yi Xiangxiang and the others saw a man sitting in the Yanbo Pavilion, the man's facial features were delicate and handsome, and he was dressed in white to make him unique and ethereal.

Yi Xiangxiang looked at it fixedly and found that this person was the eldest young master of the Jiang family, Jiang Xuanrui.

Yes, it seems that he has been pulled in the wire. Yi Xiangxiang spread her hands and smiled helplessly at Qingxuan.

"Miss, shall we go in again?" Qing Xuan hid his smile and asked Yi Xiangxiang.

"Go, why don't you go!" Yi Xiangxiang didn't care about colliding with Jiang Xuanrui, not to mention that she was a modern soul who didn't pay attention to such rules and women, and as far as the relationship between Jiang and Yi's two families was concerned, she didn't need to avoid any suspicions. I saw her turn to the little girl in green who led the way and said, "Go and bring some tea!" ”

The little maid turned around and left after saluting, and Yi Xiangxiang took Qingxuan around the rockery and entered the Yanbo Pavilion.

"Brother Xuanrui is still working hard, and he is gnawing books at home even if he doesn't go to class." Yi Xiangxiang walked over with a smile and sat down on the stone table opposite Jiang Xuanrui, while Qing Xuan bowed and stepped aside.

There is no need to attend classes in Lusheng Academy today, and Jiang Xuanrui came to this Yanbo Pavilion alone in the afternoon to read a book.

Jiang Xuanrui knew that a mother had a flowering banquet today, and invited the ladies and ladies of various prefectures to come to enjoy the flowers, but this Yanbo Pavilion was not close to the garden, and Yi Xiangxiang's appearance made him a little surprised. Of course, he didn't know that it was his sister's handiwork.

"It's just reading some biographies to pass the time, and it's not hard work." Jiang Xuanrui replied with a smile. He is friends with Yi Luochuan, and he also has contact with Yi Xiangxiang on weekdays, so he is not embarrassed at the moment.

Yi Xiangxiang watched Jiang Xuanrui turn the book upside down, and the three big words "Lane Yue Biography" were written on the cover, knowing that Jiang Xuanrui was indeed reading some idle books.

"It seems that Brother Xuanrui also likes General Rongyue? Also, the heroines are really admirable. As soon as Yi Xiangxiang sat down, she felt that it was not interesting, and she and Jiang Xuanrui had nothing to talk about, so she wouldn't have come over if she had known. And the current scene will become strange if you don't speak, and it's the beginning of a speechless search.

Jiang Xuanrui naturally heard the perfunctory in Yi Xiangxiang's mouth, and even vaguely felt the yawning in her tone, and suddenly felt funny in his heart. He used to see that his friend Yi Luochuan had a headache every time he mentioned his sister Yi Xiangxiang, and he had already become curious about Yi Xiangxiang.

"But two days ago, when Mr. talked about it in class, he looked for a book to read. But where does the word "also" come from? Could it be that Sister Xiangxiang also likes General Moon? At this time, the little maid had already served tea and snacks, and Jiang Xuanrui personally poured a cup of tea for Yi Xiangxiang.

Yi Xiangxiang took a sip of tea, felt a little hot and put it down. Seeing this, Jiang Xuanrui naturally took it and blew it gently, and handed it to Yi Xiangxiang. This made the latter think to himself, if it weren't for the fact that the two lifetimes of age combined were almost enough to be a grandmother, there might really be a little pink love!

"I like it! General Langyue can be called a model among women, if I hadn't been detained by my mother, I would definitely follow my brother to practice martial arts! Ten years later, even if he can't become the second general of the moon, he will be a hero who can fly the eaves and walk the wall! Yi Xiangxiang said.

Jiang Xuanrui laughed out loud when he heard this, he heard Yi Luochuan mention this stubble. When Yi Luochuan said that he wanted to practice martial arts, Yi Xiangxiang also made a fuss about practicing martial arts, saying that he would punish rape and eliminate evil in the future and be a hero! It's just that Yi Xiangxiang's Lingyun ambition was unanimously rejected by the Yi family, and it was said that she had a hunger strike for two days at that time. When Mrs. Yi was so distressed that she was about to let go, she went to Yongleju in the middle of the night to tell her daughter that she agreed with her martial arts practice and persuaded her to eat something, but she didn't want Mrs. Yi to see Yi Xiangxiang munching on a roast chicken through the window crack after Mrs. Yi passed, and she was very happy to eat. This made Mrs. Yi angry, and even if she lived or died, she would not let Yi Xiangxiang practice martial arts.

And it seems that it is not only Yi Xiangxiang, according to Yi Luochuan and them when they gossip, now the ninth lady of the Yi family, Yi Huanhuan, actually wants to practice martial arts, saying that she wants to rob the rich and help the poor. Jiang Xuanrui recalled Yi Luochuan's helplessness with a smile, thinking in his heart that this girl from the Yi family was really a wonderful person.

Yi Xiangxiang naturally didn't know that her brother had already sold his mess cleanly, and she was curious about what Jiang Xuanrui was laughing at. Just as he was about to ask, he heard Jiang Xuanrui say: "Sister Xiangxiang is really extraordinary." ”

"That's that!" Yi Xiangxiang is not humble.
