With the appearance of Meng's mother and daughter, everyone suddenly remembered that Shen Qingru's background was not low. The Marquis of Ningyuan's Mansion has declined, and it is also an old family, and the heritage is still there. The mother's family is also the Pingyang Hou Mansion, and there are such influential figures as the old lady. The Pingyang Hou Mansion and the Meng family are in-laws, and the old lady and the old dean Meng are close friends. In the end, even if it can't compare to Prince Xiao's Mansion, it is better than most people.

It's just that the two are too low-key, so everyone forgets that there are still two mountains in Daxiao. Invisibly, Shen Qingru's worth is high again. In the past, everyone was mostly jealous, jealous that her pheasant had become a phoenix. Now there is a lot of envy.

Shen Qingru discovered such a change. But I didn't take it to heart. She didn't care, but Shen Wanru and Shen Ningru couldn't.

is also from the Marquis of Ningyuan's Mansion, but he has a good ancestor, so he is a head above them. Shen Ningru was unwilling in her heart.

It's a pity that Fang's maiden home, the Yongchang Marquis Mansion, is even newly promoted. It's not comparable to others.

After thinking about it, Shen Ningru pulled Shen Wanru forward and said, "Uncle, cousin is good." I haven't seen you for a long time, and Ning Ru misses the two of them very much. ”

Shen Qingru looked sideways, did he want to make a face? What does his aunt have to do with them? It's been a long time, when have you seen it?

Meng raised his eyes, glanced at Shen Ningru with a smile, and said, "Concubine Shen is polite. It's not always happening. ”

Shen Ningru's smile froze, and she turned to Shen Qingru and said, "I've been here for so long, and I don't have time to say a word to the third sister." Could it be that my sister is married, and my sister is not close? ”

Shen Qingru was surprised, Shen Ningru took the wrong medicine today? Obviously, I hated her last time, but it's only been a few days, and I forgot it?

Don't talk about her, even Shen Wanru was stunned. pulled the hem of Shen Ningru's clothes, and called out suspiciously: "Sister? ”

Now you don't need to ask Shen Qingru for anything, why are you still here to curry favor?!

Shen Ningru shook his hand and ignored it. I was depressed to death. When she wants to come to this set? It was not the time to go out in the morning, Gu Qingxuan and the eldest princess repeatedly emphasized that she should have a good relationship with Shen Qingru and the palace. I had to come.

Shen Ningru thought about it, since the Gu Mansion cared so much about Shen Qingru and the Wangfu. Then she might as well play a sisterhood with Shen Qingru again to make herself more valuable in the Gu Mansion. It's good to master Gu Qingxuan.

There were still many people around watching, and Shen Qingru said perfunctorily: "I just saw the second sister chatting with everyone, so I didn't go over." ”

Shen Ning was stunned and said, "If the third sister is free, she often goes to Gufu to play." ”

Shen Qing was really strange. Isn't Shen Ning annoyed when he sees her, this is good, why did he invite her to Gu Mansion? Shen Qingru couldn't guess her thoughts, so she said casually: "Second sister newlywed Yan'er, how can I bother." ”

Shen Qingru said this, he didn't mean anything else. However, he stabbed Shen Ningru's wound. Shen Ningru's eyes were a little ruthless for a moment, but they quickly reined in, and still said affectionately: "It's okay, as long as my sister can go, my sister will be very happy." ”

As long as Shen Qingru is coaxed to the Gu Mansion and the people of the Gu family know that her relationship with Shen Qingru is good enough, it will be fine.

Before Shen Qingru could speak, the passing Ruochan County Lord disdainfully threw a sentence: "Shame on people." ”

Shen Ningru's face darkened. Since she married into the Gu Mansion, Gu Ruochan has been disdainful of her. When I met, let alone call my sister-in-law, I didn't even have a good face. When I came to the palace today, I didn't want to go with her, and I didn't come until she left.

Shen Qingru secretly wondered on the side, looking at this, Shen Ningru was not messing around in the Gu Mansion. It's like she herself said, like a fish in water, and loved by people.

Gu Ruochan didn't even look at Shen Ningru, but condescendingly said to Shen Qingru: "Princess Xiao didn't go to Gu Mansion, can't she be afraid of me?" ”

Shen Qingru is already Princess Xiao, and Gu Ruochan is a county lord, and she is still ashamed to speak. Shen Qingru didn't know if she was stupid or stupid. This girl is so persistent with her, she is so flattered.

Shen Ningru scolded a fool in his heart. Gu Xiao tried every possible means to have a good relationship with the palace, and the eldest princess also acquiesced. Let her come here to get close to Shen Qingru, and over there Gu Ruochan will smash the field. Sure enough, it was born to the eldest princess, the same look down on people, the same stupidity.

In fact, the eldest princess and Gu Xiao had already greeted Gu Ruochan and asked her not to trouble Shen Qingru. It's a pity that Gu Xiao has no right to speak at home because the eldest princess is too strong. The eldest princess dotes on the two children too much, especially Gu Ruochan, she feels that she has her demeanor, and Gu Xiao can't say a word on weekdays, so she has developed a problem that Gu Ruochan thinks very highly of herself.

Being chased by Gu Ruochan all day to compete, Shen Qingru thought for a while and said, "Why don't we play with the lost flower ball." ”

Throwing flower balls is a type of Great Depression Wine Order. Ladies and ladies like it more. is similar to the handkerchief that Shen Qingru threw in kindergarten when he was a child. A small flower ball, passed down in turn, and a maid specially called to stop. Whoever falls into the hands of the one has to perform a talent. In the Great Depression, most of them were poetry. You can also choose a topic when playing, and then compose a poem according to the topic, and choose a first prize in a circle. Those who can't do it will be punished for drinking.

Gu Ruozen thought for a moment, although it was a little contrary to her original intention, as long as she could compete with Shen Qingru, she didn't care. As for the others, Gu Ruochan thinks that he is the first in literature, and no one is afraid.

"Yes." Gu Ruochan nodded. Only a large number of people can highlight her excellence.

Shen Qingru beckoned to Poria and gave her a few commands. Poria went to find the princess.

The princess was taking Xiao Yueli to sit next to the old princess, chatting with the wives of several old families. Several people are as old as the old princess, and they rarely go out to socialize, and only the birthday of the old princess can bring everyone together. After listening to Poria's words and talking to the old princess, everyone readily agreed.

It's boring to just sit like that. There is still some time before the birthday banquet begins, so let's play a game together, and it will be harmless.

Shen Qingru just reported to the princess, but she didn't expect the old princess to be interested. Even all the ladies and dependents participated. Of course, it is mostly young ladies who participate in the game. Older ladies are on the sidelines as judges.

Bilian, who was next to the old princess, came to report the number. Bilian's eyes were covered with two layers of brocade to ensure that she could see nothing. One to one hundred, just report a count and shout to stop.

Put an hourglass on the side, and the sand will end up in a circle.

The original seating order was also disrupted. Sorted by random lottery. The whole lottery process was prepared by the old princess, and no one did anything.

Shen Qingru looked around, her point was quite back. It was Gu Ruochan sitting in front. In front of Gu Ruochan is Gong Ruoer. Could it be that God was moved by Gu Ruochan's sincerity? Shen Qingru was helpless. However, the flower balls are not allowed to exceed five in one person's hand, and the space for maneuvering is not too large.

Besides, she is not afraid of anyone when she writes poetry. She grew up carrying 300 Tang poems, and if she didn't cheat, she would be sorry for herself. As long as it's not himself every time, Shen Qingru is still quite confident.

Behind Shen Qingru was the county lord of Weixi. I didn't want to participate in this thing, because I really don't know how to write poetry. But he was still pushed up by the lord of Nanyang. Everyone else participates, but you don't. Didn't you slap yourself in the face and admit that you were not literate? Before the lord of Nanyang County pushed her up, he also comforted her, and the loser did not lose the battle, and the emphasis was on participation.

The county lord of Weixi had a bitter face, if she really lost, she would definitely be locked up at home by her mother when she went back, and she would be forced to study. Seeing Shen Qingru sitting in front, the county lord of Weixi hurriedly came over and hugged his thighs, "Sister Qingru, you have to cover me." The two of them were in front of each other, and when they shouted to stop, Shen Qingru just didn't throw it to her.

Shen Qingru scratched her forehead, "I'll try my best." "It's out of her control, what if she throws it and then shouts to stop? But seeing that the county lord of Weixi was relieved and his face relaxed, Shen Qingru swallowed the words back into his stomach.

Xiao Yueli sat in front of Shen Qingru's right, turned around and gave the two of them a smile. Yunxi, Wen Shu, and Ruoxuan sat farther away.

Wen Shu is Shen Wanru in front of him, and Shen Ningru is in the back, which is also very coincidental.

Qin Xiyan also participated. The lot she drew was relatively back, and the seat was in the corner. No one noticed. Qin Xiyan clenched his fists, ready to make a blockbuster, and it was best to impress the princess.

The locations of Xiao Yueluo's people are relatively scattered. Shen Qingru didn't look for them one by one.

Everything is ready to go. Gu Ruochan raised his head at Shen Qingru, revealing a smile that he was determined to win.

Shen Qingru gave her a polite and polite smile back.

The title was given by the old princess. It's about the Changqiu Garden.

This topic is decent, some people are gearing up, and some people are frowning and pondering. Shen Qingru thought about it for a while, and then thought of a suitable one. After reciting it silently in his heart, Shen Qingru sat up straight for a while. It's nice to have someone who already knows the answer as soon as they get the question. Shen Qingru even had some expectations for the flower ball.

The most relaxed in the audience were her and Mo Weixi. The latter is completely broken jars, and I don't think about it directly. While people are not paying attention, secretly take the wine on the table and drink. These wines are all fruit wines prepared by Shen Qingru, and the degree is not large. Otherwise, everyone is drunk, how can they participate in the following banquet?

Her movements were not big, but she was still seen by the county lord of Nanyang and Princess Mo, who had been paying attention. The two looked at each other and raised their hands to their foreheads at the same time. Forget it, it's hopeless. Let her go.

Bilian began to count. Sitting in the first place was a girl surnamed Ding. She was the first to start throwing the ball backwards. If she hadn't reported to the back in the first round, she would have been safe. Miss Ding's face was a little regretful. It shows that he is quite confident in his writing.

It's also a chance to get ahead. There are more ladies and women who have come to the banquet today than ever before, and they are all very important. If you are eyed by one of them, you will have a good future. If you can come out on top, you will be even more famous, and your worth can be doubled several times.

And because the movement on the women's side was too big, many people on the men's side looked at it curiously. Many young children of the family pointed at this side of the discussion.
