Chapter 231: Summer Feast

Last time, Xu Sanchun and Cui Yao were arrested by the brocade guard in front of Ruilin Pavilion. In the affairs of the Brocade Mansion, Ruilin Pavilion did not dare to interfere casually even if it was the largest jewelry building in the entire big business.

But not interfering does not mean that there is no inquiry.

If you are blind and deaf in the capital, you will not be far from going out of business. They always have to figure out who can be offended and who can't.

The fight between the lady and the virtuous lady, they have also heard of it. What surprised them was that Xu Sanchun appeared in the court of the Brocade Mansion on the second day, and made the virtuous lady lose in disgrace.

Even if you don't know the details, everyone in Ruilin Pavilion knows that you can't despise this newly rising talent. And it wasn't until today that the shopkeeper realized the difference of Xu Sanchun.

The shopkeeper didn't understand Xu Sanchun, but Xue Minjun didn't. She knew that Xu Sanchun didn't value these external objects, so she made her own decisions and picked out a lot of jewelry for Xu Sanchun, which was enough to match several sets of dresses for going out.

Leaving Ruilin Pavilion, Xue Minjun took her to the ready-to-wear shop again.

The garment shops of the Great Shang Dynasty were more developed than those in ancient times that Xu Sanchun knew. Not only can it be worn by ordinary people, but there are also high-end shops.

There are only a few sets of dresses in these stores in a season, while stocks last. In this way, it avoids the embarrassment of wearing the same style as others at the banquet, and it is highly sought after because of the novelty of materials and styles.

In the shop, there are also female workers with excellent craftsmanship waiting. As long as the guest likes a set and pays the deposit in advance, he can immediately change the size for the guest, and he can take it after half a day.

Naturally, these one-of-a-kind dresses are worth a lot of money.

Xu Sanchun walked around and felt that such a ready-to-wear store was quite similar to the kind of haute couture she had seen in modern society.

To say that she is in the prime of her cardamom years, how can she not be tempted by such beautiful dresses and jewelry?

First, she really doesn't value it, and second, the person she pretends to be in her heart can't see it, so how can she care.

It was still Xue Minjun who made the decision for her, and picked several sets for her. It's all at this point, Xu Sanchun wants to refrain again, it will only look hypocritical, so he accepts it and thanks.

For Xue Minjun, this expense is nothing, and the benefits that Xu Sanchun brought her are not just things that can be replaced?

The summer banquet, as the name suggests, is a cool banquet to escape the heat.

And Luoyi City is in the middle of summer, how to escape the heat of the banquet held in the city? However, this is the Great Shang Dynasty with the Dark Moon, and it is not difficult for the Duan Wangfu to have a formation map.

That's right, Xu Sanchun saw the Qionglou Array again.

It is said that this Qionglou array belongs to the Duanwang Mansion, and in addition to holding banquets, most of the ladies of the palace spend time here in summer.

Different from the Qionglou array that restores the real climate outside Sancailou, it is a cool summer scenery here. The green mountains and green waters, the sound of the waterfall rumbles, and from time to time you can see rare birds and beasts.

The air inside is cool, and it is a breezy summer day, but there is no summer heat, and it is really a good place to escape the heat.

As Xue Minjun stepped into the summer banquet, the maids of the palace led them to the place where the guests were entertained. This is not a large hall, but a meandering water valley built in a stone forest.

The women invited to the summer banquet are all women, and the fragrance of Ding Dong is striking, and the faces of the ladies and ladies are all with just the right smiles, elegant and decent.

They sat in distancing or gathered in groups of three or five, whispering in low voices. From time to time, there is also a light laugh, which is pleasant to hear.

Xu Sanchun saw it in his eyes, but felt that they were acting in a drama tacitly, and everything was happening according to the script. I don't know how many years they hung such masks before they achieved positive results.

Xue Minjun took her to sit down, and smiled and introduced several ladies for her.

The ladies here are all ladies with imperial court seals, and those who can be good friends with Xue Minjun are naturally all ladies above the third grade.

Of course, they know that this talented lady in the limelight in the brocade mansion is in the limelight.

Xu Sanchun may not know, but her name is already well-known in the social circle in Luoyi City. This is the first time she has appeared in front of everyone, and it is inevitable that there will be more curiosity about her.

Fortunately, Xue Minjun had already told her yesterday, and the ladies were very measured in their inquiries. At most, I will sigh that Xu Sanchun's life experience is pitiful and restrained and polite.

Therefore, Xu Sanchun didn't feel difficult to deal with it at this time. If there is a question that she doesn't want to answer, she hangs her head and is silent.

Seeing that she could advance and retreat freely, Xue Minjun was relieved. She looked around, trying to find a playmate of a similar age for Xu Sanchun.

There are a lot of places to play here, and Xu Sanchun can't go there if he follows her. Besides, some of the topics discussed between the ladies were a little dull and boring for a young girl.

Just thinking about it, a girl in a light apricot dress walked over surrounded by maids, looked at Xu Sanchun and asked with a smile: "Dare to ask, but Xu Cainiang?" ”

Xu Sanchun responded, and asked suspiciously: "Exactly, dare to ask you?" ”

Xue Minjun laughed, patted his head and said, "Why did I forget you!" She smiled and introduced the two of them, and said, "This is the concubine of Lord Qiuguan, Ding Yaqi, who ranks second." ”

Xu Sanchun was good friends with Ding Yaqin in the town school, and he also partnered to open an embroidery village, Xue Minjun naturally knew it.

As the chief of one of the six departments, Shangshu of the Criminal Department is of course qualified to come to the summer banquet. And this Ding Yaqi person, as his name suggests, is a quiet and gentle girl.

Ding Yaqi came here precisely because he received a letter from his sister Ding Yaqin before. In the letter, Ding Yaqin told her sister that Xu Sanchun was her savior, and if she met her in the capital, she would take more care of her.

It's just that after Xu Sanchun went to Beijing, he spent most of his time in Sancai Building and never appeared in such social occasions.

I saw her today.

The two saluted each other, and Xue Minjun smiled: "You guys go play by yourself." With Yaqi with you, I will be relieved. As the daughter of the Ding family, Ding Yaqi is familiar with this place.

Ding Yaqi smiled softly, "Please rest assured, I will take care of Sanchun." ”

Although Xu Sanchun saw her for the first time, because of Ding Yaqin's relationship, there was a natural sense of intimacy between him and her. What's more, she wasn't a twister, so she simply responded neatly.

went out together, and the two of them had young teeth, but Ding Yaqi was a few months older than Xu Sanchun.

"Sister Sanchun, my sister often writes to mention you." Ding Yaqi said with a smile: "When I saw it today, I knew that what my sister said was true, and my sister was really a fairy figure who came out of the painting. ”

"Sister Yaqi praised it!" Xu Sanchun hurriedly said modestly.
