Chapter 349: Provocation

The gilded carved invitation is light and exquisite, but it weighs a thousand pounds in the hands of Old Madam Feng.

She read it several times and made sure that the post was for the four girls of Dongpingbo Mansion, so she picked up the teacup and drank it all in one go, and told Ah Fu with unconcealable excitement: "Go and invite the four girls over!" ”

Ah Fu trotted all the way to Haitang Ju to invite someone, and accompanied Jiang Ru on the way back to the Cixin Hall, his waist bent and bent, and his eyes looked at Jiang Ru with puzzlement and awe.

The four girls are silent, how can they get the post in the palace?

It's incredible!

"Old lady, the fourth girl has arrived."

Old Madam Feng pressed the invitation under her hand: "Please invite the four girls in." ”

The maid guarding the door raised the cotton curtain, and a girl in a bright red cloak walked in with light steps.

Seeing the bright red, Old Madam Feng suddenly felt refreshed.

The four girls like to wear bright colors, unlike those little girls who don't wear plain colors and think they are beautiful, but they don't know what to do with what color clothes you wear, purely look at that face.

With the face of the four girls, it is no wonder that she is a creative person.

Jiang seemed to enter the house, took off the cloak and handed it to the maid on the side, and saluted Mrs. Feng Yingying: "Grandmother." ”

Old Madam Feng stretched out her hand with a rare kindness: "Come and sit beside Grandmother." ”

Jiang seemed to step forward quietly.

Old Madam Feng looked at her granddaughter carefully, and a smile appeared in the corner of her eyes: "Today, the palace sent you a post, you can see." ”

Jiang seemed to watch Old Madam Feng push over a beautiful invitation card, and reached out to pick it up.

Lowering his eyes, Jiang seemed to unconsciously rub the hollow pattern on the post, and what appeared in his mind was a smile on the corner of Yu Jin's mouth.

He actually had a way to get her to receive the post.

Now that she has received an invitation to the plum banquet, she will enter the palace for the banquet in two days, so how can he make himself the best choice for Princess Yan?

Jiang seemed to be thinking about this silently, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but smile lightly.

Either way, she believed he could do it.

This trust probably stems from a past life.

At that time, she was the identity of the Holy Maiden of Wu Miao, and the combination with the prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty was related to the relationship between the two countries, and it was by no means something that could be achieved by one person, but Yu Qi issued a decree to give marriage.

Old Madam Feng stared at the shallow smile on Jiang Ru's lips, her eyes flashed slightly, and she asked tentatively, "Fourth girl, do you know why you received this invitation?" ”

Jiang seemed to smile: "Grandmother said that she was joking, how did her granddaughter know that the nobles in the palace would set a plum banquet, let alone whether she could receive an invitation." In fact, the granddaughter is also wondering why the granddaughter of such a flower banquet can get an invitation. ”

Old Madam Feng didn't believe it, her eyes kept rolling on Jiang Yi's face, and what she saw was still that calm and indifferent expression.

"Since you don't know anything about it, why don't you be surprised?"

Jiang Ru looked at Old Madam Feng in surprise: "Didn't grandmother teach us that the collapse of Mount Tai and the unchanged color are the demeanor that all noble girls should have?" ”

A rhetorical question made Mrs. Feng quite embarrassed, and she wanted to get angry but lost her temper.

Yes, this invitation alone is enough to keep her temper at bay.

This is an invitation to choose a concubine for the prince!

Let's not talk about whether she can be selected, the four girls inexplicably got such an invitation, which is enough to make her raise her eyebrows, and she can straighten up her waist when she tells the four girls about her family affairs in the future.

What, the four girls in your family have quit their relatives? And a reputation for daring?

So what, since she can become a candidate for the princess, after the strict selection of the nobles in the palace, it proves that the four girls of Dongping Bofu have flawless character, and no one can openly pick on this in the future.

When Old Madam Feng thought about it, she felt that she had unloaded a big stone in her heart.

The two married girls in Bofu had accidents one after another, which was really bad.

Of course, even if she received an invitation from the palace, Old Madam Feng didn't think that Jiang seemed to be able to win the election.

The princess, that's something I can't even think about.

"After you go back, prepare well, and say directly to the steward if you lack anything, grandmother still has two sets of hair noodles that you used when you were young, go back and pack them up and let Ah Fu send them to you......" Old Madam Feng said a lot in one breath, smiled and took Jiang's hand and rubbed it gently, "Don't let our uncle lose face." ”

"Granddaughter knows."

Seeing Jiang's calm appearance, Old Madam Feng had the heart to give a few more words, but in the end, she swallowed those words and signaled that Jiang seemed to be able to retreat.

The news that the four girls received the invitation to the plum banquet soon spread throughout the Bofu.

The second wife, Xiao Shi, has been beating Dou Cousin since she came, and she has changed her previous sick and crooked appearance, and she has become more and more attentive to the housekeeper, and every thing, no matter how big or small, must be done so that people can't find thorns.

She heard the news almost immediately, and immediately pinched the hot teacup for a while without saying a word.

Mrs. Xiao seems to have come out of the pain of losing her daughter, regained her shrewdness and neatness, and has done her best to do things for the Xiao family these days, and has regained her trust and reliance.

Seeing Xiao like this, she persuaded and persuaded again and again.

Xiao eased up a lot, and instructed: "It's spring, the spring clothes in the house must be prepared in advance, and there are also bed curtains, I remember that I ran out of stock last year, and it's time to buy new ones." By the way, Qian'er, you can go there in person, so as not to let those subordinates look down on people and snub her. ”

"Don't worry, madam, wait for the old slave to go over and have a look."

Leaving from Xiao's place, Mrs. Xiao gently stroked the plain silk flowers on her sideburns, and walked towards Jiang Qian's residence with her feet raised.

Since Jiang Qian returned to Bofu, she rarely walked out of the courtyard.

It's not that she doesn't want to, but she can't.

With Mrs. Feng's words first, she is a married daughter who has returned to her parents' house without righteousness, so she naturally has to settle down and at least survive these days.

Jiang Qian originally thought that she would be able to raise her head when her brother was lifted, but she never expected that her brother's nine out of ten things would go wrong, and it was really unlucky to say that this year.

Hearing that Mrs. Xiao was coming, Jiang Qian cheered up and met people, and couldn't bear to listen to Mrs. Xiao talk about those trivial things.

When did she fall into such a situation, she even had to listen patiently to the words of a mother-in-law beside her mother.

Jiang Qian's heart was sour.

Mrs. Xiao quietly hooked the corners of her lips, as if she inadvertently mentioned it: "The fourth girl is really lucky, she actually received a post about the flower appreciation banquet in the palace." ”

"Flower viewing banquet in the palace?"

"Yes, I heard that it was for the prince who did not marry a concubine."

Jiang Qian's eyes shrank suddenly, and she pulled the handkerchief hard: "Why did the fourth sister receive it?" What about the other sisters? ”

Mrs. Xiao smiled and said, "Only the fourth girl received it." Everyone in the house said that maybe the fourth girl could really become a princessβ€”"

"Impossible!"

Mrs. Xiao stopped.

Jiang Qian pursed her lips and slowly calmed down, and said with a forced smile: "In the future, Xiao's mother will often come over and tell me about the outside." ”

"Second girl, don't worry, my wife told me to let the old slave come over often."

As soon as Mrs. Xiao left, Jiang Qian's face suddenly sank, and she muttered to herself: "Jiang seems to be something, the daughter of an uncle who can't even pass on the title can become a princess?" Dream! ”
