Duchess Li was not in the eldest princess's small hall at this time, but she was not angry in the big banquet living room.
"How could it not be?" asked Lee.
Yahuan wiped her sweat and said: "The slave maid asked the eldest wife of the Bai family, and their Bai family originally had two posts, originally scheduled to bring the eldest lady, eldest miss, third lady and fifth miss, and then the fifth miss was sick, and there was no young lady of the right age in the Bai Mansion, so the second wife of the Bai family was ordered to come over, but later the wife of the prince of the Hou Mansion of Ji'an sent back a post, saying that it was to suppress Miss Bai Wu, and Miss Bai Wu gave it to the other two cousins. ”
Because Lu Xiao finally relented and was willing to marry a wife, the Li family was restless for most of the day, chatting with the ladies in the banquet living room and not being energetic, waiting to enter the blind date mode, but he didn't expect to find no one at all.
Lee took a deep breath. asked, "Mrs. Hou Shizi of Ji'an didn't come either?"
"The eldest lady of the Bai family did not see it in the small garden, but according to Mrs. Bai, the Bai family had bought two apricot blossom posts for Mrs. Hou Shizi of Ji'an, or on the side of the Zhenguo Mansion, but we want to go to the big garden, but we have to go to the gate of the Zhenguo Mansion, for the time being...... Inconvenient access. ”
Li Shi took a deep breath and said silently: She is a scholarly family, she doesn't scold people, but she still can't help complaining: "We are afraid that the Zhong family will not be able to get the post, so we specially sent someone to send a Spring Festival flower post, for this, Xiao Er and his two aunts blamed me a lot, this Bai family doesn't know what to think, took the Spring Festival flower post to exchange for the Bai family's apricot post? ”
That Yahuan arrived: "Could it be that they don't know the difference of this post?" However, it is unlikely to think about it, although the difference of this post has not been mentioned to outsiders, after so many years of Chongyang Banquet, where is there anyone who does not know. Yahuan said again: "It must be Mrs. Hou Shizi of Ji'an with the eldest lady and the second lady, there is only one spring flower post, and it is inconvenient to leave her own daughter to come to the small garden, so she simply went to the big garden." ”
Li Shi shook his head when he heard this, "The small garden is not like a banquet living room, there is a fixed number of seats, and she has a pavilion casually, she has a spring flower post, even if another niece uses an apricot post, she will be welcomed to the small garden, how can it be so troublesome, this Mrs. Hou Shizi of Ji'an is too unknowing." ”
Where did she want to get Bai's really didn't know that the flower type of the post was different, and the banquet location was different, just like Li said, the Bai family in Shunyi Bofu could get at least one Spring Festival flower post, it turned out that there was only one daughter of the Bai family in the family, which was enough, and then in the past 20 years, the girls have increased, and then buy two apricot posts, and they will also be welcomed to the small garden, so in Bai's view, no matter what kind of flower she takes, the small garden is her eternal guest.
The Li family would not have thought that the Bai family not only did not take the apricot post to the big garden this time, but was also welcomed to the main hall of the eldest princess with the chrysanthemum post talent, which was one level higher than the Li family's treatment.
So the Li family waited for Yahuan to find Zhong Xiaoxin in the small garden of the eldest princess's mansion in the banquet living room of the eldest princess's mansion in Qionghuati, and waited for the ending that there was no such person.
Li Shi thinks that this big girl Zhong has no relationship with Xiao Er?
However, Lu Xiao's inhumane reputation has already spread.
Naturally, no one wants to marry him, the family is too low, and the Li family can't look down on it, although the Bai family has real power, but what can be done in these years is a Shunyi uncle, although he is in charge of one-fifth of the capital, but in the end the official position is only seven grades, and he has worked for so many years. In order to seek the position of Fang Zhongzhong of the Ministry of War, the Li family also had to admit that in terms of identity, Zhong Xiaoxin, the granddaughter of the head of the Hou Mansion, was very suitable.
The Li family is worried, if they are in the big garden, how can they bring people in to have a look? Can't she go over there?
Yahuan also opened her mouth again. "Madam, I inquired about the absence of the eldest girl of the Zhong family, and when I planned to come back, the Bai family ......"
"What's the matter?" asked Lee.
"The Bai family said that since Mrs. is here, it stands to reason that she should come over to say hello. Yahuan said, and added a sentence after speaking: "I see that the young ladies of the Bai family are also very beautiful." ”
Li nodded: "Since he is a candidate who can bring him to the Chongyang Banquet, he is naturally the best in the family, but since the main lord is not there...... You said that the two cousins brought by the Bai family are also very beautiful?"
That Yahuan nodded, Yahuan was promoted by the Li family in her early years, although she was not such a close identity as a marry, but she was also a confidant for many years, and Li's affairs were not hidden from her.
Li Shi and Yahuan glanced at each other and understood what they meant by each other.
Unexpectedly, the Bai family also worked this family business, and it seemed that they were afraid that a Miss Zhong would not be able to enter the eyes of the Li family, so they brought more candidates. At this moment, the trace of blame that Li had in his heart also disappeared, and the Bai family originally took the flower post she let out, and the righteousness still used it according to her wishes.
Li's heart was pounding: "Since the other party is so polite, let's meet, you go and invite them to come." "The number of sons and women is more and more for every mother, and now it is just two more candidates, so what is it to let her choose.
"Where is Miss Zhong?" asked Yahuan. In order to limit the number of people in the Double Ninth Festival, each master can only bring one Yahuan, even if the Li family is the Duchess of the Protector, Yahuan went to invite the Bai family, so naturally there was no way to inquire about Zhong Xiaoxin's news.
"I invited the Bai family to take a look first, and then you can inquire when you are free, so that the two sides will not meet, but better. Li said: "If people come, can they still run away? It's just a matter of time." ”
Yahuan nodded, indicating that she understood her master's mentality of casting a wide net.
Zhong Xiaoxin didn't know that in her ignorance, her future mother-in-law had already started the blind date mode 1.0.
Over the years, the eldest princess banquet blind date mode has actually gradually become a fixed pattern.
Blind date mode 1.0: Because of the head of the head to marry a woman, so most of the women's doors are lower than the men's doors, the male protagonist's mother will take her daughter to participate in the blind date banquet, and the woman's mother will take her daughter to meet the familiar lady in the name of moving from the activity area to the high-level activity area to carry out cross-border blind dates.
Zhong Xiaoxin's side was isolated in the big garden of the Zhenguo Mansion, which is not the same place as the Eldest Princess's Mansion, so she couldn't carry out this activity for the time being, and she was still talking to the girls. In the end, most of the morning has passed, and there are more than 100 people in 7.8 pavilions, no matter how unsociable the lady is, she can find one or two people to talk to, not to mention that most of the ladies of this level come for blind dates, for them, the goal of meeting the eldest princess or pleasing the nobles or something is too far, and they are not even together. The ladies slowly got acquainted with each other, so they asked their little girls to play by themselves, so the girls got together in twos and threes, some talked about clothes, some talked about jewelry, although this topic was safe, but in the end there was no technical content; and then there were those who talked about piano and chess, and some talked about calligraphy and painting, which was considered high-end technology; the most awesome conversation Zhong Xiaoxin heard was when passing by a pair of girls, the two of them were talking about the drought in the south last year, one said: "After the drought, there will be many floods" and the other started to make a bet on whether there will be floods this year.
Zhong Xiaoxin's head was sweating, this shouldn't be a topic for 14 or 15-year-old girls to talk about.
