Chapter 208: A Sudden Invitation
"Wen Xing, it's a clear day, it's really a good weather for leisure. Let's go, we went to the gazebo with the teapot and the daughter Midori sent by the father last time. Jing Ning squinted his eyes and looked at the sun, thinking leisurely with a quiet smile on his face.
"All right, miss. The slave hasn't drunk the tea made by the young lady for a long time! Slave and maid, go and prepare! "Wen Xing is very happy, there is finally one less * troublesome person in the house!
Wen Xing ran to prepare excitedly, and Jing Ning looked at his stupid maid with a doting face. At this moment, Bihua came in with an invitation in her hand with an angry face.
"Miss, an invitation from the Imperial Palace."
Jing Ning's face paled, and his heart, which was as calm as a lake, seemed to be broken by a stone, and his good mood was destroyed in an instant. "Oh, when."
"Today." Bihua looked angry, "Miss, she did it on purpose!" I just went to inquire, and the young lady of another family placed an invitation a few days ago, and your invitation only arrived today! It's still an hour before the banquet time, and she's just deliberately trying to make a fool of you! ”
"Today?" Jing Ning frowned, bored in his heart, Zheng Xiuning had just left, and before he had a good rest to celebrate, Yang Qin came here to find trouble. "Push it. Don't go. ”
"I'm afraid it's not appropriate." Bihua looked embarrassed, "Miss Yang has already spread the news that you will go." ”
"Already? Hehe, then she is hidden enough to spread this news, deliberately so that it can't be transmitted to me. ”
"I'm sorry, miss, we didn't find out in advance."
Jing Ning shook his head, "If she deliberately wants me to make a fool of myself, she will definitely not let you hear it, besides, these days, the second lady in the house is busy getting married, and it is normal for these news to be ignored." Just be vigilant next time. Let's go and dress up first, and let's go. ”
Jing Ning took a deep breath, and it was only at this time that she deeply realized that the strings had to keep tightening this sentence. Yes, until all those who hate her and hate her are not completely resolved and have no home, their own strings must be stretched all the time and cannot be relaxed.
Jing Ning comfortingly patted Bihua who looked ashamed next to her, "It's okay." The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, I believe your young lady can deal with it! ”
As he spoke, Jing Ning took Bihua into the boudoir with heavy steps.
When he walked to the door, Wen Xing had already packed up the tea set and pastries, bringing a bright smile with ignorance. Seeing the young lady and Bihua walking towards the house with heavy steps and serious expressions, they couldn't help but feel nervous, "What's wrong?" What's wrong? ”
Bihua didn't say anything, just stuffed the invitation card in her hand to Wen Xing. Wen Xing put down the tea set, glanced at the invitation, and screamed, "What? Today! It's only an hour, it's too late! This Miss Yang is also too much! This is clearly intentional! ”
Bihua nodded, "It must have been deliberately embarrassing our young lady." ”
"Then we knew it was intentional, why did we go? Miss, let's push. ”
Jing Ning didn't speak, and was already preparing to change clothes.
Bihua looked at Wen Xing with an expression of "why are you so stupid", and explained, "If you can presume it, but Miss Yang has already spread the news that Miss Yang will go, and our Miss is still the protagonist." Miss Yang said that because the second lady married far away, our young lady must be reluctant to be sad, and everyone is a sister, so she invited all the young ladies to enjoy it together. The subconscious meaning is to comfort our young lady. ”
"Poof." Wen Xing sneered, "We can't wait for the second miss to get married, and Miss Yang also knows the relationship between my young lady and the second young lady." In this way, it is just an excuse. Who doesn't know that she held this banquet to show off that she was called the 'first person' by the queen's mother. ”
"Who's to say it isn't." Bihua said, with an angry face.
"Alright." Jing Ning interrupted the two indignant maids, "Come and prepare, otherwise it's even later." ”
As he spoke, the three of them quickly prepared with their hands and feet. Because of the tight time, Jing Ning's makeup was not very grand. After packing up, the three of them hurried to the Imperial History Mansion. It was still too late, and the ladies had already arrived.
Jing Ning glanced at it, and sure enough, there was no figure of Lan Yao and Xiao Yuan. If Lan Yao and Xiao Yuan would come, how could they not go to her in advance. As for why the two didn't come, Jing Ning didn't know if Yang Qin didn't invite or if there was some other reason.
"Miss Zheng, you're finally here, a group of us have been waiting for you for a long time."
"Yes, yes. Qin'er also specially sent an invitation to our sisters, saying that Miss Zheng and Miss Zheng Er have a deep sisterhood, and Miss Zheng Er has just gotten married, and Miss Zheng must be very sad. So let's accompany Miss Zheng. ”
"But I don't see how sad she is, really, let's accompany her, it's such a big shelf, so late." I don't know which young lady muttered quietly, but it hit the hearts of all the young ladies.
Yang Qin looked coldly at Zheng Jingning standing in front of the young ladies and being accused, Zheng Jingning, when you have no popularity and popularity, I see how you can rob Yunheng with me.
"It's me who is bad, it's me who is not good. I was afraid that Miss Zheng would be sad for the past two days, and then she would not agree to come to the party together, so I sent the invitation a day or two later. Yang Qin changed her cold eyes just now, and her expression was innocent and slightly ashamed.
Yang Qin opened her mouth first, but let Jing Ning stand on the disadvantageous side, since Yang Qin admitted that she was late, it would be a bit aggressive to hold on to this point again. But Yang Qin's explanation is not all true, after all, there is a big difference between being late and delivering it this morning.
"Jean." Yang Qin's handkerchief was handed over and held Yang Qin, "How can I blame you, you have always been kind." Isn't it, Miss Zheng, I guess you won't blame Qin'er for being late for a while, right? ”
Heh, Jing Ning sneered in his heart, you're not a little late here.
Jing Ning pretended to be moved, "How can you blame Miss Yang, Jing Ning also hopes that all the young ladies will forgive Jing Ning for being late, Jing Ning is really because her sister is married, she has not been able to recover in the past two days, maybe because she has cried too much in the past two days, when she got up this morning, her eyes were a little puffy, in order not to scare the sisters, Jing Ning hurried to come after the swelling was reduced, but I didn't expect it to be late." It seems that because of the mention of his sister's distant marriage, Jing Ning said with tears on her face.
Looking at Jing Ning with tears on his face, everyone was not good at saying anything, and hurriedly comforted, "Sister Jing Ning doesn't have to cry anymore, Sister Xiuning can be regarded as having a good home, although it is a bit far away, but she is always married to the martial champion given by the emperor." Moreover, this marriage is still a royal gift. Say it, how many people envy it. ”
"Besides, that martial champion is also a good one, if the frontier has made meritorious contributions, then it is not a matter of time before he returns to Beijing to reunite."
said so, but no one revealed what everyone thought in their hearts.
Jing Ning wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, "Yes, the emperor's holy grace, I hope Xiuning can be well over there." ”
In any case, the beginning of this banquet also made Jing Ning fall into a reputation of sisterhood.
