"When you walk with your eldest sister, people will be able to see your identity and receive you according to the etiquette. 『∈八『∈八『∈ read the ∈ book,.2∞3.↓o" Lin lowered his voice and said in Qiao Nianxi's ear.

A fine light quickly flashed in Qiao Nianxi's eyes, and she turned to Qiao Chuying with a voice, as if she didn't know anything.

Xu had already come in to report, and the maid at the door lifted the curtain, and the old lady Bai actually greeted her in person, and the moment she saw the old lady, her eyes turned red.

"Oh, old sister, after so many years, I finally see you again!" Old Madam Bai exclaimed excitedly, tears in her eyes.

The old lady hurriedly stretched out her hand to help her, and she was really emotional, and her happy expression also brought bright tears in an instant: "I thought I would never see each other in this life, but now it's really good that you are back!"

The juniors looked at the two old men hugging and crying, and hurriedly came over to persuade them, and when the two old men calmed down a little, they hugged each other and walked in, as if they had endless words.

Qiao Nianxi should have followed behind Qiao Chuying according to Lin's explanation, but since the moment she entered the door, Qiao Chuying inadvertently hid backwards, and gave up her position to Qiao Nianxi.

Entering the back room, Mrs. Bai pulled the old lady to sit down, chatted for a while before gradually calming down, turned to look at the children accompanying her, and pointed to the previous introduction with a smile on her face.

"This is our eldest girl, Ruojin, who is fourteen years old this year, originally followed her mother to greet guests in the garden, and I heard that you came back to me when you arrived, and wanted to get to know the sisters of the Qiao family. ”

Bai Ruojin heard Old Madam Bai say this, her face fluttered with a blush, and she took a step forward and bowed to the old lady and the Lin family: "I usually listen to my grandmother talk about the affairs of Zhenguo Hou, Ruojin can't help but come over, and I ask Old Madam Qiao and Mrs. Hou for forgiveness." ”

"Ouch, look at this kid, it's really dignified and demure, people like it when they look at it!"

The old lady hurriedly stretched out her hand to help, and between speaking, her eyes looked at Bai Ruojin's face carefully, and she couldn't help but praise.

Bai Ruojin listened with a shy face, and at the same time, his eyes swept over the faces of everyone in the Qiao family, and the moment he touched Qiao Nianxi, he paused for a moment and quickly lowered his eyes again.

Immediately afterwards, Mrs. Bai introduced the children behind her one by one, although they were concubines, they also looked dignified and virtuous, only from the surface, they were also harmonious.

The Marquis of Xiangyang left the imperial capital relatively early, and the children of the grandchildren almost never met, and today is the first time they have met.

The old lady responded to the children's greetings with a smile on her face, and distributed the small gifts she had prepared to everyone, and she was happy to see everyone happy.

The children of the Xiangyang Hou Mansion got to know each other one by one, and it was the turn of the old lady to introduce her children.

Qiao Chuying quietly took a step back, just as Qiao Nianxi pushed to the old lady, and then the Lin family stopped the conversation before the old lady could speak.

"This is Nianxi, listening to the old lady talk about the affairs of our two families along the way, this kid is also excited!" While speaking, Lin reached out and pushed Qiao Nianxi out, only introducing the name, not the ranking.

The old lady saw that it was not Qiao Chuying who came out first, she was stunned for a moment, looked at the Lin family with a smile on her face, and remembered her words in the carriage, only if she was acknowledging to outsiders the identity of Qiao Nianxi's daughter-in-law, she acquiesced.

At this time, Qiao Nianxi knew that Lin's play had begun, and at the same time wanted to see what they were going to do, so she didn't say much, and followed Lin's hand and walked to Old Madam Bai.

"I wish you happiness like the East China Sea, longevity like an ageless pine, a long life of longevity, and a long life of 100 years old, and a healthy body like the wind. ”

After saying a few auspicious words, Qiao Nianxi pursed her lips and smiled, and bowed generously to Old Madam Bai.

"Ouch, this child is really as good-looking as a porcelain doll, look at this clever child, it's really painful, come here, let me take a good look!"

Old Madam Bai looked at Qiao Nianxi following the old lady a little more from the bridge just now, and reached out to pull Qiao Nianxi to her between words, looking up and down, such a dignified and elegant child with a sense of cleverness, it is very satisfying to be a granddaughter-in-law.

Qiao Chuxi, who was next to him, listened to the words of Old Madam Bai, couldn't help but pout in his heart, clenched his hands, and looked at Qiao Nianxi becoming more and more obstructive.

However, in front of outsiders, no matter how much they hated in their hearts, they didn't dare to make a move, so they could only secretly bite their back molars!

Just when Old Madam Bai was holding Qiao Nianxi's hand and talking, the Lin family saw the opportunity and hurriedly pulled Qiao Chuying over.

Old Madam Bai originally had something to ask Qiao Nianxi, but another girl came out in front of Leng Buding, and she had to turn her gaze to Qiao Chuying.

Old Madam Bai's eyes fell on Qiao Chuying's face and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, she had to admit that Qiao Chuying's appearance was more outstanding, but after all, the meaning was different, and the smiling face was plain and white, and there was less affection.

Qiao Chuying didn't care either, she still saluted Old Madam Bai, seemingly shyly against her head, and when Old Madam Bai also gave a gift, Lin immediately pulled over the sisters behind.

The old lady was gagged by the Lin family, and her face gradually pulled down, but this was in someone else's house, and she couldn't show her unhappiness, so she just sat there and didn't speak, and occasionally when the old lady Bai turned her face to look over, she nodded once or twice.

After the children on both sides were introduced one by one, Lin looked at the old lady Bai and turned his eyes to Qiao Nianxi, lest he ask too much, so he hurriedly turned to the old lady.

"You two elders must have a lot of things to say after not seeing each other for a long time, we won't bother here, I will take the children to the garden to see if there is anything that can help Sister Chen, I also think that she thinks about it!"

While speaking, Lin subconsciously pulled Qiao Nianxi closer to his side.

The old lady was not happy to be left aside, but seeing that the Lin family was holding Qiao Nianxi's hand, she thought that she was going to introduce this new concubine to Mrs. Xiangyang Hou, so she suppressed the fire in her heart and nodded.

"Our two families are not outsiders, and we should help, so you can take the children over!" said the old lady, turning her face to look at the old lady Bai.

Old Madam Bai originally wanted to talk to Qiao Nianxi, but the old lady had said everything here, and she couldn't stop her, so she nodded reluctantly.

Everyone saluted the two old men, followed the maids to the front garden, and pulled Qiao Nianxi to talk to the ladies of the Xiangyang Hou Mansion along the way.

Bai Ruojin is the eldest daughter of the Xiangyang Hou Mansion, so she is naturally a little closer to Qiao Nianxi, chatting along the way, but she also feels that Qiao Nianxi's friend is worth making, so she is a little closer.

The Lu family pulled Qiao Xinyu behind, looking at the Lin family's change, he was inexplicably a little more nervous, but he was not sure if the Lin family had really changed his personality after the previous events, and he couldn't say anything for a while, so he could only keep an eye on himself.

Bypassing the promenade across the lake, everyone came to the vestibule garden where the guests were, Qiao Nianxi glanced up, and a casual deep meaning gradually appeared in his eyes.

Seeing Mrs. Xiangyang Hou greeting the guests from a distance, Lin was overjoyed, and then his footsteps sped up a little, and before he walked to him, he already had a smile on his face.

"Oops, Sister Lin!"

The maid next to her approached to report to Mrs. Xiangyang Hou, and Mrs. Xiangyang Hou turned her face just to see that Lin had led everyone over, and the smile on her face became a little stronger.

"Sister Chen, I really miss you!"

Lin walked a few steps to Mrs. Xiangyang Hou, just like the old lady and the old lady Bai met just now, and the excitement was overflowing.

The Lu family's Gao family and Mrs. Xiangyang Hou also knew each other, although they were not as close as the Lin family, they were still old friends, and they also happily met each other.

In the time when everyone was busy greetings, two maids on the side came over to pass the word to Lu's Gao, the two maids knew each other, and they were people around several ladies who usually interacted, and the two greeted Mrs. Xiangyang Hou, turned around and left with the maid.

Before leaving, Lu Shi turned his face to look at Qiao Nianxi, and was about to say a few words, but saw that she nodded to herself first, hesitated for a moment, and finally turned around and left with the maid.

Seeing the Lu family and the Gao family leave, an imperceptible sneer flashed in Lin's eyes, and he followed the hand of Mrs. Xiangyang Hou to the place where the guests rested.

Everyone followed, and Qiao Chuying was still hiding behind along the way, watching Bai Ruojin and Qiao Nianxi chatting hotly, and even lowered their faces to reduce their sense of existence as much as possible.

Qiao Chuxi pitied Qiao Chuxi and couldn't help sneering when she looked at Qiao Chuying's depressed appearance, and subconsciously regarded her as a decline, just sneering and didn't say much.

The Xiangyang Marquis Mansion originally had its own social circle in the imperial capital, and several relatively close families were arranged together at the banquet, which naturally included the Zhenguo Marquis Mansion.

Mrs. Xiangyang Hou took everyone all the way over, and everyone met with each other for a pleasant greeting, so they got together and chatted.

Lin told Qiao Chuying to follow Qiao Nianxi's side, turned around and deliberately chose a quieter place to chat with Mrs. Xiangyang Hou alone.

Originally, I didn't want Mrs. Xiangyang Hou to mention the matter of the baby's parents, but the top priority that Mrs. Xiangyang Hou thought about when she came back was Bai Jiacheng's marriage.

"Which child is?" While Mrs. Xiangyang Hou was speaking, she looked up at Qiao Nianxi, and saw Bai Ruojin talking to Qiao Nianxi, without waiting for Lin's answer, she added: "But that child in blue clothes?"

While speaking, Mrs. Xiangyang Hou turned her face to look at Lin, with a little more expectation in her eyes, and it was obvious that she was very satisfied with Qiao Nianxi.

The Lin family pretended to be stunned, followed the gaze of Mrs. Xiangyang Hou, and smiled, but the words that came out of the mouth led people to the crooked road: "The old lady loves this child the most, and she is also spoiled, not as dignified and stable as Ruojin." ”

This sounded like she was talking about her own birth, Mrs. Xiangyang Hou was overjoyed, and subconsciously decided that Qiao Nianxi was the one who made a baby kiss with Bai Jiacheng, and couldn't help but turn around and look at Qiao Nianxi again.

Some people on the side knew Qiao Nianxi, but listening to Lin's ambiguous words, coupled with Mrs. Xiangyang Hou's worship of the Buddha, they subconsciously thought that she was asking about the child who came back from the Buddha's side, so they didn't say much.

Qiao Nianxi was talking to everyone, as if she felt the attention of the side, and subconsciously turned around and just bumped into the eyes of Mrs. Xiangyang Hou, and then looked at the expression on Lin's face next to her, and instantly smiled politely at Mrs. Xiangyang Hou.
