Qingwei said: "Madame said, the third lady has been working too hard these days, it is better to participate in the banquet to relax." ”

Lan Xiaoyou said: "My mother is still considerate of me, you help me reply to my mother, I will definitely participate in this plum banquet." ”

How could she not participate? Even if she doesn't participate, Wen Songya will post to motivate her to participate, so as not to frustrate her arrangement.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Wen Songya's post to arrive. Wen Songya has the name of the first talented woman in the capital, and she writes a colorful post, which is extremely good-looking, and harms people without dirty words. It can be seen from the post that Wen Songya recognizes Lan Xiaoyou's cultural level.

Lan Xiaoyou looked at the post and smiled, to be honest, it is quite stylish to have a person like Wen Songya as an opponent.

"Peach Core, help me take out that pink dress, I need to change my clothes."

Momoxin was puzzled: "Is it the skirt embroidered with a peony pattern?" Don't you like it? ”

Lan Xiaoyou smiled: "Yes, but some people like it." ”

Taoxin blinked suspiciously, Lan Xiaoyou didn't answer her doubts, asked Taoxin to help her change her clothes, went to the main courtyard to say goodbye to Mrs. Lan, and got into the carriage. The place to enjoy the plum blossoms is in the Zhuangzi of the Duchess of the Kingdom, which is located in the middle of the mountain outside the city, a little far from the city, and the coachman sped up after leaving the city gate, and galloped all the way.

The carriage in which Lan Xiaoyu rode was a modified one, with tires on the wheels. Tires are not made of rubber, but are made from the juice of a grass unique to this world, and the effect is the same as rubber. When Lan Xiaoyou and Lan Xiaoqin proposed the concept of tires, Lan Xiaoqin sent many people to search for them all over the country, and finally found a nameless grass that could replace rubber trees, which was directly named rubber grass by the second brother of the Lan family. Lan Xiaoqin established a pasture in the suburbs, specializing in planting rubber grass, making rubber, and improving carriages. In fact, the main use of rubber is in chariots, but at this time, except for the Lan family and Huang Furui, no one else thought of it. However, now that Huang Furui has ascended to the throne, sooner or later he will have to improve the rubber chariot.

Lan Xiaoyou sat comfortably in the carriage, although the spring had not yet been developed, but the carriage was covered with thick pads and rubber tires, and there were hardly any bumps along the way.

Suddenly, the speed of the carriage slowed down, and the coachman replied outside: "Third Miss, someone's carriage in front of you has broken down and blocked the road." ”

Lan Xiaoyou ordered: "Go over and take a look, if you can help, you can help." ”

"Yes." The coachman slowly drove the carriage to approach the carriage in front, saw the other party's subordinates, recognized it, and turned back to report to Lan Xiaoyou: "Third Miss, it's the carriage of Uncle Xiaoyi's family." ”

Hearing this, Lan Xiaoyou immediately sat up, lifted the curtain on the car window, looked at the carriage in front of him, and asked, "Is it Sister Dawn?" ”

The curtain of the carriage in front of him was also lifted, and a beautiful face was revealed: "Xiaoyu? ”

"It's me." Lan Xiaoyou smiled sincerely, she was very happy to meet this best friend, "Sister Dawn, come and sit in my carriage for a while." ”

"Okay." The curtain was lowered, and after a while, Ji Xiaoxiao got out of the carriage with her personal maid, and Taoxin hurriedly jumped out of the carriage and helped Ji Xiaoxiao into the carriage.

"Xiaoyu, it's good to see you. I'm still thinking about going to the Marquis Jingyuan Mansion to see you in two days. Ji Xiaoxiao said happily.

"When did Sister Dawn return to Beijing?" Lan Xiaoyou asked, stretching out his hands and pulling Ji Xiaoxiao into the carriage. The hands of the two touched together, and Lan Xiaoyou felt the coldness in his hands.

"So cold?" Lan Xiaoyou frowned and looked at the clothes on Ji Xiaoxiao's body, "Why are you wearing so little?" ”

Ji Xiaoxiao smiled: "I'm not cold." ”

"If it's not cold, why are your hands so cold?" Lan Xiaoyou hurriedly pulled Ji Xiaoxiao to sit down, stuffed his soup woman into Ji Xiaoxiao's mouth, and poured her another cup of hot tea, "Didn't Mrs. Xiaoyibo even do this superficial effort?" ”

Ji Xiaoxiao only smiled, and her maid Lu Yang hugged Ji Xiaoxiao upset, and said: "Madame is too much, under the pretext of being tight at home, she reduced the eldest lady's use, and actually used it all to subsidize her biological daughter." ”

"Shut up." Ji Xiaoxiao stopped his maid.

Lan Xiaoyou was angry: "That woman is embarrassing you again?" ”

Ji Xiaoxiao sighed: "I'm used to it, and the mansion is indeed not as good as before now, everyone's expenses have decreased, and it's not limited to me." And the little sister is still young and prone to frostbite, so her mother should cling to her. ”

"What words? She's only three years younger than you, and she's much better than you. You're more prone to frostbite than she is. Lan Xiaoyou snorted, "You just have a good temper to be bullied by that mother and daughter." You must know that you are the real eldest lady of Bofu, and your identity is only higher than the two of them, why have you endured them all the time? ”

Ji Xiaoxiao smiled bitterly: "If I have a hard time with them, my father will be very embarrassed, but it's a little thing, just bear it if you can." ”

"Is this a trifle?" Lan Xiaoyou was angry, "It's because you endure and endure like this that those two mothers and daughters are so unscrupulous." If you continue like this, maybe your marriage will be calculated by them, and your life will be ruined! ”

Ji Xiaoxiao: "No, my cousin and I have been engaged a long time ago, and my aunt loves me very much, so there will be no problems." ”

"It's not weird!" In the previous life, Ji Xiaoxiao was successfully calculated by his stepmother and stepsister, not only was his fiancé taken away by his stepsister, but also had an unhappy marriage. It's a pity that Lan Xiaoyou's situation at that time was also unbearable, and he couldn't help this best friend.

Speaking of this Ji Xiaoxiao, her fate is even more miserable than Lan Xiaoyu's previous life. Lan Xiaoyou has had a smooth life for at least the first ten years, like a proud son of heaven, and has been pampered, but Ji Xiaoxiao has not been loved by his parents since he was born, and his life is extremely depressing.

Ji Xiaoxiao's mother had a difficult birth when she gave birth to her, and died of a blood collapse, carrying the reputation of her mother, Ji's father didn't like her very much, which caused the people in the Bofu to look down on this eldest lady. A year later, Ji's father married the current Mrs. Ji, who regarded Ji Xiaoxiao as a thorn in her side, and suppressed Ji Xiaoxiao in various ways. If it weren't for the loyal servants left by Ji Xiaoxiao's mother, Ji Xiaoxiao was afraid that he would die silently in the backyard of the Bofu at a young age.

In the end, the loyal subordinates contacted the mother's family at dawn last season. Ji Xiaoxiao's mother is noble, her mother's family is powerful, much more powerful than Ji's father, an earl who only has an empty title and no real power, and Mrs. Ji's maiden family cannot be compared with Ji Xiaoxiao's mother's maiden family, if she is not Ji's father's cousin, she cannot become the stepwife of the Earl's Mansion at all.
