Chapter 708: Something Happened During the Banquet
The conservatory of the Wenguo Mansion is quite famous in Beijing.
It is said that the Duchess of Wen Guo loves delicate flowers very much, but the winter weather in the capital is cold, very few flowers can bloom, in order to let the lady in the cold winter and the moon can also enjoy the beauty of Yanyan, he built a warm house in the house, so that the florist specially served, in order to ensure that the lady in the winter, can also enjoy the flowers.
Now that the Duchess of Wenguo is getting older, she does not like this conservatory as much as she did when she was young, but despite this, every time the Duke of Wenguo holds a banquet, she is bound to invite guests to sit in the conservatory.
Without him, just because of the warm house of the Wenguo Mansion, there are indeed few other places.
As soon as the group entered the conservatory, they were dazzled by the eye-catching Yin Ziyanhong.
It had only snowed a few days ago, and the weather had already cooled down, and many homes were almost only lined with the green of the pine and cypress trees, but there was a place in the Wenguo Mansion that was full of all kinds of delicate flowers.
The flowers are full of flowers, and at first glance, people can't help but indulge.
Many young ladies let out a soft cry that could not be controlled, calling this garden full of spring, and also calling the wealth of the Wenguo Mansion to the sky.
Such a greenhouse, this cluster of clusters and pots of delicate flowers, are all made of silver, right?
If they don't have some family resources, who would dare to do this?
Almost all of the people present were nobles in Beijing, but many people couldn't help but be surprised when they saw this conservatory, which shows what kind of wealth and abundance the Wenguo Mansion is.
In the end, it is the queen's mother's house, no matter how other people's homes are, they can't be compared.
Lu Jiamin has been walking in front, next to her is Xie Wanrong, Xie Wanrong's side is An Sheng, this ranking makes her very unhappy, but in front of everyone, she is not easy to attack, and she doesn't want to lose her dignity because of An Sheng.
In her heart, An Sheng's background is always incomparable to her.
Although she knew that An Sheng would marry into the Protector's Mansion in the future and become the wife of the prince, and perhaps in the future, she would become the new Duchess of the country, but these things she didn't want to remember had long been forgotten by her.
Besides, she doesn't feel how mean she is, it's not that she looks down on An Sheng, but whether An Sheng has the life to marry into the Protector's Mansion, or whether she can marry into the Duchess of the Kingdom, it's really hard to say.
As for why it's hard to say, this can't be said to outsiders, there are some things that only their family can know, and others can't do it.
However, it is inconvenient for her to teach An Sheng a lesson, but it does not mean that she can't borrow the hands of others to teach An Sheng some lessons.
Let's wait and see if she can smile later!
Because of the explanation of the Duchess of Wenguo in the morning, Xie Wanrong was very generous, and said to the ladies that if anyone sees any flowers, they can talk to her, and after the banquet is over, she will arrange for someone to send these flowers to everyone's house, and can let the gardener tell how to maintain them.
As soon as these words came out, they were praised by the whole house.
Although everyone understands that Xie Wanrong is sending something from the Wenguo Mansion, who is now the prospective daughter-in-law of the Wenguo Mansion? If she dared to open this mouth, it must have been approved by the Duchess of Wenguo, and this alone was beyond their reach.
Envy? Jealous? Naturally, there are, but no matter how much envy and jealousy you have, you can only hide it in your heart and dare not show it.
In the end, she is a wealthy lady who knows how to take care of the reputation of the whole family and her own face.
When you know that you can't fight, who will be stupid enough to save your face again?
The trip to the warm house was extremely smooth, many people picked their favorite flowers, and Xie Wanrong really did as he said, ordering people to take down the selected flowers, only to be sent to the selector after the banquet, this move has won a lot of praise and praise from everyone, it can be said that the guests and hosts are happy.
After enjoying enough flowers in the conservatory, Xie Wanrong led everyone back to the banquet living room.
Duchess Wenguo and Mrs. Shizi did not accompany them, most of the people invited today are unmarried official ladies, and the two of them accompany them, but they can't let go of these girls, and they also lose their identity, and they met these ladies at the beginning, but also to improve Xie Wanrong's value, and now they don't have to accompany them.
In the banquet living room, there are low tables and warm cushions in a row, the earth dragon burns very much, the hall is exquisitely arranged and chic, the high head in front of the main hall is placed on the copper incense burner of Rui beast, the curling green smoke is swaying upward, and the incense is swaying.
Xie Wanrong invited everyone to sit down, and she also went to the main seat to sit down.
According to the seats that had been arranged, the maids of the Wen Mansion led the nobles to the corresponding positions and sat down, and then silently retreated behind them, ready to be sent at any time.
After everyone sat down, several beautiful women in pink clothes came in one after another with plates of delicacies, and the banquet began.
Lu Jiamin sat in the first line on Xie Wanrong's right side, and An Sheng sat in the first line on Xie Wanrong's left hand, and when they looked up, they could see each other.
However, Miss Lu has always been tall, so she disdains to be friends with An Sheng, so what An Sheng saw when she looked up was only Miss Lu's proud face.
But An Sheng didn't care, she felt that Lu Jiamin was good like this.
If she keeps staring at herself, where will she have a good appetite for food?
The chef of Wenguo Mansion is the imperial chef from the palace, the craftsmanship is excellent, and the food is beautiful, she doesn't want to live up to it.
How did Lu Jiamin know that An Sheng was thinking like this, if she knew, she was afraid that she would be even more angry than now, but unfortunately, it was impossible for her to know what An Sheng was thinking in her heart......
Halfway through the banquet, there has been nothing to do, although it is not staggered, but it is also a smile and a happy life.
Xie Wanrong secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
This is the first time she invited the ladies in Beijing to have a banquet in the name of Wenfu, and she hoped for a successful and smooth ending, before Lu Jiamin deliberately gave An Sheng's face, which made her quite worried, but now seeing that the two of them are safe, she is secretly relieved.
She is not worried about An Sheng, with An Sheng's relationship with her and her understanding of An Sheng, An Sheng is not a person who takes the initiative to cause trouble, as long as Lu Jiamin does not take the initiative to find trouble with An Sheng, An Sheng will not embarrass her.
Looking at Lu Jiamin's appearance now, it doesn't look like he's looking for trouble, it's quite reassuring.
As a result, Xie Wanrong was relieved for a while, and someone actually "got into trouble"!
Originally, there was nothing wrong with holding a banquet and playing some small games, and it should be, but if you deliberately target someone when playing a game, then you don't deliberately cause trouble, so what is it?
Xie Wanrong couldn't help but feel a little annoyed in her heart, she thought that she wanted to guard against Lu Jiamin's trouble, but she didn't expect that it was someone else who made trouble!
