Chapter 42: Invitation to the Eldest Princess's Mansion

Yong'an Houfu shallow cloud residence

Qingyan finished washing, ate breakfast, saw that the hour was a little late, sighed, and took the red kite to the old lady's courtyard to say goodbye.

Red Kite has been sick since she stole the invitation that day and was caught in the mouse trap, and she only came to serve today.

There was laughter and laughter in the Songtao Garden, and when I bypassed the magpie Dengmei folding branch screen, I saw Lin Qingyi, Lin Qingyun, and Lin Qingxin all there, and there was a man I didn't know, sitting next to the old lady.

"Qingyan greets my grandmother." A pleasant female voice sounded, drawing everyone's eyes to the person in the middle of the main room.

In a moment's effort, two unkind eyes came towards Qing**, Qingyan knew that Lin Qingxin and Lin Qingyun were dissatisfied with themselves for the matter of the bamboo forest, and they were helpless, you designed me, is it my fault that I escaped? Should I just wait for you to be innocent?

"Get up, Qingyan has come to see your second brother." The old lady smiled lovingly.

Qingyan was a little surprised, the old lady seemed to be in a good mood today, and she was kind to herself, and she turned her face to look at the second brother, wouldn't this be the second brother who was a few months older than herself in the third room, right? After the salute, Fang Zhiguo was really from the third room, didn't he say that he was in office with the third uncle and three aunts? How did you get back?

At this time, Qingyan was full of question marks, but he knew that although he had a good impression in front of the old lady because of the matter of soothing soup, he also knew that there was not much weight, so he listened quietly and asked less.

Qingyan quietly listened to everyone in the house chatting about the third grandfather's appointment, and learned that not only the second young master Lin Xu was back, but also the third wife and the sixth girl Lin Qingwan were also coming back, and this time the Hou Mansion would be even more lively.

After a while, the second-class maid Suzuran came in and reported: "Old lady, someone from the concierge has come to report, and the princess's mansion has handed over an invitation." ”

After saying that, Lily of the Valley handed the invitation to the old lady, and the old lady of the eldest princess's mansion did not dare to slack off, and opened it to see that it was the lord of Ningzhu who invited Lin Qingyan to enjoy the flowers.

Seeing that the old lady was puzzled, Lin Qingxin, who was sitting on the left side of the old lady, was full of jealousy, and Lin Xu, who was on the right side of the old lady, showed appreciation in her eyes, and her face was a little puzzled, could this post be related to herself?

As soon as I thought of this, I saw the old lady hand the invitation back to Lily of the Valley and said, "Give it to the third girl." ”

Qingyan took the gold-painted post printed with peony flowers, this invitation alone shows that the person who posted the distinguished identity, the post said that Qingyan was invited to go to the eldest princess's mansion tomorrow afternoon to enjoy the flowers, signed by the lord of Ningzhu, Qingyan smiled secretly, no wonder Lin Qingxin was jealous.

After reading the post, Qingyan's heart was excited, it was just an opportunity to take the things he made to the Lord of Ningzhu to try, although he was secretly happy in his heart, but his face was still silent, and he asked, "Although this post is an invitation to Qingyan, but to go or not to Qingyan dare not make the decision on his own, and ask my grandmother to decide?" ”

The old lady smiled, and said in her heart that this granddaughter knows how to advance and retreat, so she said lovingly: "Thanks to the love of the county lord of Ningzhu, you will dress up well tomorrow and go to the eldest princess's mansion to enjoy the flowers, pay attention to the number of etiquette, and don't make the county lord unhappy." ”

Sure enough, the old lady is still like that, I am afraid that the children in the house will cause trouble to the Hou Mansion, thinking of this, Qingyan smiled slightly and said: "Qingyan obeys the teachings of grandmother." ”

Lin Qingxin, who was on the side, shook the old lady's arm and said coquettishly: "Grandmother, the third sister has just returned home, and there is still a lack of etiquette, so it is better to let Xin'er accompany the third sister, and it is good to mention it from time to time." ”

Hearing this, this girl doesn't know the etiquette, and she is better than you, the arrogant and arrogant lady.

The old lady pondered for a while, and then patted Lin Qingxin's hand with a smile on her face, "Okay, okay, I'll let you accompany your third sister, but you have to be cautious when you go." ”

Qingyan is helpless, with this eldest lady, how can she promote her own products? Never bring it!

Thinking of this, she spoke: "Grandmother, why did Lord Ningzhu invite Qingyan to enjoy the flowers, I don't know yet, if it was before...... I'm afraid that it will affect the fifth sister, so it's better to go by yourself, if it's okay, take the fifth sister next time. ”

The words fell to the old lady secretly in her heart, what Qingyan said was also reasonable, Qingyan offended the lord of Ningzhu County before, if it was a Hongmen banquet this time, since it was an invitation to Qingyan, it would be difficult not to go, if Xin'er followed, wouldn't it be to burden Xin'er.

Lin Qingxin was disdainful in her heart, she really thought she was a green onion, how could there be a next time, "Grandmother, the last time I received the wind banquet, the county lord of Ningzhu also relieved the siege of the third sister, I am afraid that I like the third sister very much, Xin'er also wants to win the favor of the county lord, so grandmother will let Xin'er go." When the words fell, Lin Qingxin shook the old lady's arm again, and she was coquettish.

The old lady felt that Lin Qingxin's words were very reasonable, so she said: "Qingyan will let Xin'er accompany you, and after you go tomorrow, remember to go and say hello to the eldest princess first." ”

Lin Qingxin smiled proudly when the words fell, raised her eyebrows and looked at Qingyan, but Qingyan had no choice but to agree.

After a while, Lin Qingyun and Lin Qingyi glanced at each other and came up and said, "Grandmother, we also want to accompany the third sister." ”

Without waiting for the old lady to talk to Qingyan, Lin Qingxin said: "If you go to four people with an invitation, people will laugh at my Hou Mansion." ”

Qingyan sneered, there is no need to say it himself, Lin Qingxin is so jealous, how could she let others follow.

After saying goodbye, Qingyan took the red kite and walked on the path back to Qianyun Pavilion, and at the corner in front of him, there were two people standing, and they looked at Lin Qingyi and her maid Baolan.

"I'm afraid the third sister forgot, on the night of the bamboo forest, when the third sister asked her sister to testify, she promised her sister, right?" After Lin Qingyi asked Red Kite and Baolan to control the wind, he took the lead in questioning.

"Second sister, what are you talking about? How could Qingyan forget the promise of the second sister? Qingyan replied with some helplessness.

Lin Qingyi sneered and asked, "Then why did you take your fifth sister to the Eldest Princess's Mansion today?" ”

Qingyan didn't want to explain more, but said: "Today's matter is decided by my grandmother, and my sister can't interfere." ”

Lin Qingyi sneered at this time, "Don't prevaricate me with your grandmother." ”

Qingyan was very helpless, and didn't want to entangle more, so she said: "My sister promised my sister, I don't dare to forget it at any time, if there is a next time, my sister will take my sister there." ”

Hearing that Lin Qingyi was no longer entangled, she knew that even if she made a fuss, it would only be a lose-lose situation, and today's events could not be changed, what she wanted was Qingyan's last sentence.

After getting rid of Lin Qingyi, Qingyan walked on the path of the Hou Mansion, his thoughts drifted far away, even if he was like enduring it, the cow ghosts and snake gods in the Hou Mansion would not let go of himself, there was the last time the medicine was in the past, and the next time I don't know how to harm myself, I have to be vigilant.

Why didn't Ruizhi appear in the past two days? It is said that he was strong in martial arts before, although he can't remember it now, but he can also let Rui Zhi teach himself two tricks to defend himself, so as not to have something like kitsch medicine again.
