The second young master of the Yongchang Hou Mansion is Qiao Chuying's eldest cousin, Lin Shuming, and the only son-in-law of Yongchang Hou Lin Wenjie.

Although Qiao Chuying didn't look down on their behavior, because of the relationship between her closest relatives, Lin Shuming still took good care of her.

"Yes!"

Chunyan took the letter, subconsciously glanced at Chunxue next to him, turned around and retreated.

Chunxue stood in the distance and lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Qiao Chuying, the silk handkerchief in her hand was about to be wrung out of a hole, I don't know why, there was always a bad premonition.

Here Qiao Chuying was burning hot, but Qiao Nianxi was sitting on a stool in the pavilion and eating grapes with her legs, looking leisurely.

Of course, the grapes this time have not been frozen, this is what Ye Xuanling explained.

Qiao Xinyu also heard that Qiao Nianxi's clothes were sent over, and she ran over without waiting for Lu to finish speaking, she couldn't see the workmanship of the materials, but the style of the clothes was shining in her eyes, such delicate and beautiful clothes, she was the first time she had seen it!

"Third sister, you were so beautiful in that dress just now! I originally thought that the eldest sister was the most beautiful child in our family, but now I think that the third sister is even more beautiful than the eldest sister!"

After a long while, Qiao Xinyu's energy still did not dissipate, and as she spoke, she learned Qiao Nianxi to reach out and pull down a grape and throw it into her mouth.

But after all, she was not used to it, Qiao Xinyu's chewing, the sourness on the grape skin, made her wrinkle her brows and spit it out, and finally ate the maid to peel it.

Looking at Qiao Xinyu's appearance, Qiao Nian shook his head helplessly: "It's just a piece of clothing, you are too exaggerated." ”

It's not because Qiao Nianxi doesn't like the clothes, but in her heart, clothes and jewelry are all to set off people, not people to set off those dead things.

Qiao Xinyu blinked and looked at Qiao Nianxi with big eyes, originally with a happy face, as if she thought of something, turned her face to look around, and saw that there were no outsiders, so she said mysteriously: "Big sister is very beautiful, and she is usually good to people, but I always feel that I am afraid when I get close to her." ”

Qiao Nianxi was stunned for a moment, looked up at Qiao Xinyu and frowned, and asked, "Why are you afraid?"

With years of experience in seeing people, from the first time she saw Qiao Chuying, Qiao Chuying knew that this sister was not as gentle and gentle as she seemed on the surface, but she usually spoke and acted very cleverly, which made people imperceptible.

It's just that Qiao Xinyu can say this, presumably something happened that has left a shadow on this child's heart.

Qiao Xinyu's face sank, and she thought for a while: "In the past, the second sister accidentally broke the eldest sister's skirt, and the eldest sister generously said that it didn't matter, but I saw the pure smoke around the eldest sister put something into the second sister's Yangzhi nectar, and then the second sister was sick for many days. ”

Qiao Nianxi hooked the corners of her lips, compared to Qiao Xinyu's nervousness, it was much more relaxed, and while listening to Qiao Xinyu's words, she took a sip of tea from time to time.

In the past few days, I have seen the methods of this family, and the intrigue between them is indispensable, but she doesn't have the leisure to care about other people's affairs.

"Just know it in your heart, and be careful in the future, it's not your turn to take care of other things. As he spoke, Qiao Nianxi picked up a piece of cloud cake.

Qiao Xinyu's child is too simple, and she has a straightforward temperament, Qiao Nianxi is not worried that she will have the same bad thoughts as those people, but she is afraid that others will not be used to her.

Qiao Nianxi is like this, others have bad thoughts about her, she will definitely repay her, but if she is good to her, she will be doubly good to others.

Listening to Qiao Nianxi's words, Qiao Xinyu was stunned for a moment and muttered: "Why is the third sister the same tone as my mother!"

Qiao Nianxi sneered, and stretched out her hand on Qiao Xinyu's head: "That's because we care about you, and we're afraid that you, the troublemaker, will cause trouble for yourself!"

Qiao Xinyu pouted and was very unconvinced, but thinking about it, she seemed to understand something, and nodded a little more seriously at Qiao Nian.

A few days passed quickly, and the long-awaited Fengyuan banquet finally arrived.

Early in the morning, everyone else was carefully dressed up in their own yards, and even the greetings to the old lady were automatically waived.

Qiao Nianxi still got up early for morning exercise as usual, didn't need to learn the rules, packed up everything and went directly to the old lady.

If it were normal, the old lady would have made a fuss a long time ago if there was no one here, but today is different, she can't be busy herself, how about caring about others?

When Qiao Nianxi went in, Cui's mother was putting on jewelry for the old lady, and the old lady was facing the mirror, looking at the jewelry on the table, she had already picked out her eyes, and she liked it when she looked at it, but she thought about picking the best one, and shook her head no matter which one she tried.

"Say hello to my grandmother!"

Qiao Nianxi walked up to the old lady, first saluted respectfully, and then blessed Mother Cui.

Mother Cui's perennial serious face was a little softer, and before she could speak, she heard the old lady beckoning to Qiao Nianxi.

"Come on, help my grandmother see which one looks good!"

As the old lady spoke, her eyes were still staring at herself in the mirror, but her eyes were a little more irritable.

Qiao Nian walked steadily, arrived at the edge of the dresser, reached out and took out a bronze hook and gold-edged hollow hairpin and handed it to the old lady: "Today is the Fengyuan banquet, I heard that the queen will come to our Zhenguo Marquis Mansion in person, everyone must be dressed up, too gorgeous but looks mediocre, this set of bright precipitation is deep, although not gorgeous but more noble, especially with the grandmother's moist blessed face, it must be eye-catching!"

Hearing Qiao Nianxi say this, the old lady's face instantly dissipated, and she was a little more happy, watching Qiao Nianxi put a complete set of decorations on her head, she felt more and more that she was like that!

A complete set of decorations was done, the old lady looked at herself in the bronze mirror, her face bloomed, and even Mother Cui next to her couldn't help nodding and praising Qiao Nianxi's good vision.

"Or we know my heart best!" The old lady looked at herself in the bronze mirror, she couldn't be more satisfied, and looked at Qiao Nianxi more and more.

Qiao Nianxi pursed her lips and smiled, her face was still as calm and calm as before, and as she was talking, Jixiang hurriedly came in from outside: "Old lady, the old lady of Ningguohou Mansion Zhou is here." ”

Before entering the door, the auspicious voice came in first, looking up at the old lady's dress, stunned for a moment.

The old lady obviously saw the amazing moment in her auspicious eyes, and the smile between her eyebrows was even worse: "Quick, help me to greet me." ”

Speaking of which, although the Ningguohou Mansion and the Zhenguohou Mansion do not move around often, the old lady of the Ningguohou Mansion and the old lady are small and have not seen each other for many years.

Seeing that the old lady was happy, everyone hurriedly stepped forward to help her out.

In the vestibule garden, there are already some officials and family members who are not as good as the Zhenguo Marquis Mansion who came in advance, and now they are talking together in twos and threes, so it is not lively.

Qiao Nianxi casually glanced at the crowd, and was first attracted by a bright color, and when she looked closely, it turned out to be Qiao Chulian, who was forbidden by Ye Xuanling.

It is still the style of the past, Qiao Chulian is wearing a rose-red dress given by the old lady, it seems that she doesn't feel swaggering enough, and she matches a bright green shirt, and her eyelids with gold beads and hairpins are sinking, and when she moves slightly, there is a clanging noise.

At this time, Qiao Chulian also seemed to notice this, his eyes lit up, and he came over with a twist on his waist.

"Li'er has seen grandmother!" Qiao Chulian's voice came into everyone's ears, it was originally a delicate little daughter's posture, but when it appeared on Qiao Chulian, it made people tremble.

The old lady was stunned for a moment, then looked up and saw Qiao Chulian, and her face changed: "Why are you here?"

Didn't Ye Xuanling not let you come out? Not only did you come out, but you also dressed so ostentatiously, did you want to die?

A hint of darkness flashed in Qiao Chuxi's eyes, and before he could talk, he heard Qiao Chuxi's voice next to him.

"Yes, at the Fengyuan banquet, His Royal Highness King Ling didn't want to see anything unclean and stain his eyes, and everyone's words were left behind, how could the second sister dare to come out?"

Qiao Chuxi said, her eyes glanced at Qiao Chulian, just now she saw the old lady coming, hurriedly came over to offer courtesy, and when she approached, she just heard the old lady talking to Qiao Chulian with an unhappy face, and she didn't want to open her mouth to be sarcastic.

"You!" Qiao Chuying was choked by a sentence, glared at Qiao Chuxi, but did not entangle, and turned to look at the old lady: "Li'er knew that she couldn't appear at the Fengyuan banquet, so she didn't dare to go out in the vestibule garden, just thinking to see if there was anything she could help with, so that she could share some of it for her grandmother and second aunt." ”

A few words are reasonable, and with that serious expression, it really makes people believe it.

Hearing this, the expression on the old lady's face improved slightly, thinking that too, the front garden was a place where the ladies came, and it didn't matter, so she didn't insist on letting Qiao Chu go back.

Thinking that Qiao Chulian said that he was here to help just now, the old lady realized something, turned her face and looked around, and found that the Lin family was not there, but the Lu family was busy greeting the guests, and the smile on her face decreased a little.

"Where's the Lin family!"

The old lady's voice was a little unhappy, Fengyuan banquet was organized by the Lin family, didn't she neglect the guests by not welcoming them in the front garden?

"Yongchanghou's people are here, and Mrs. took people to the backyard!"

Qiao Chu saw that the old lady's face was not good-looking, and she couldn't help but bring out a touch of pride in her heart, and without waiting for others to speak, she hurriedly took over the conversation.

When he was in the yard just now, Qiao Chulian happened to meet the Lin family walking to the backyard with his mother's family, the old lady had always felt that the Lin family was too kind to her mother's family and was unhappy, and now that she had this opportunity, she had to report it quickly.

Sure enough, as soon as she heard the Lin family call her family to hang the guests here, the old lady snorted coldly and instantly lowered her face and was about to speak, but saw Qiao Chuying just walking over from the backyard with pure smoke and pure snow.

Different from the bright and pretty in the past, today Qiao Chuying is wearing a snow-white light gauze long skirt, a small jacket with gold silk hook edges, and a peony flower embroidered with bright threads on the collar, which adds a bit of agility, and a light blue waist seal around the waist will tie up the slender waist that is not in a hand, light makeup and light strokes, and red lips are contained, especially the pair of clear eyes that are almost about to leak water, which makes people reluctant to look away.

is really worthy of the title of the first beauty in the imperial capital.

Qiao Chuying was coming this way, and when she saw that the old lady's face was wrong, her heart tightened, and she walked towards the old lady.
