There was another person in the crowd who saw a scorching light burst out of Jing Yi's eyes, this person was Xu Ruyin, who had a relationship with Jing Yi in the bookstore and fell in love with Jing Yi at first sight.

Since meeting Jing Yi, Xu Ruyin sent her henchmen to inquire about Jing Yi's situation. But Jing Yi had just come to the capital, and few people knew her, so Xu Ruyin's people didn't know Jing Yi's identity.

Xu Ruyin didn't expect to meet the person she was looking for at the flower viewing banquet in the eldest princess's mansion today. This made Xu Ruyin very happy.

Xu Ruyin is different from those girls who want to marry into the royal climbing high branches, as the daughter of the Xu family, she knows that the royal family is not so easy to marry, even if she marries a certain prince, she also wants to share a husband with a group of women. If you are jealous and jealous, it is a bad rule, and you are not virtuous and polite.

And marrying the prince will also face royal intrigue and deceit. If the husband you marry accidentally gets involved in some conspiracy and dispute, or fails to compete for the throne, it is better to marry someone with a lower status in the end.

At least with her family background, her husband's status is lower, so she has the right to speak in her husband's family, and she can live more freely.

The most important thing is that his husband does not dare to take concubines at will, at least he has to agree.

Xu Ruyin didn't expect that the person she liked was the hottest topic in the capital recently, Chu Jingyan, who was only fifteen years old.

Although Chu Jingyan was made a marquis and his status was very high, he did not have a strong family support behind him, and now he has no real power. Their Shangshu Mansion would not bow their heads in front of Chu Jingyan.

Maybe in the future, Chu Jingyan will have to rely on the support of the Yue family. Thinking about it like this, Xu Ruyin's heart was even more moved. With her talent and appearance, she thinks she is completely worthy of Chu Jingyan.

Xiao Jinyue walked to the banquet hall and looked around and said, "Everyone is welcome to participate in the flower-viewing banquet in my house, today are all young people, and everyone doesn't have to be formal." Later, we will go to the garden to enjoy the flowers, and then we will play some small games, and whoever wins will be rewarded. Okay, let's all go to the garden to enjoy the flowers. ”

Then Xiao Jinyue led the way to the garden, and everyone went out of the banquet hall to enjoy the flowers in the garden together.

Everyone present also knew that this was nominally a flower-viewing banquet, but in fact, it was a borrowing name, and this was an opportunity for young sons and ladies to meet. If you are interested, you can also take a look at your future partner.

Everyone also thinks that today's flower-viewing banquet in the Eldest Princess's Mansion is mostly for King Jing, King Jin and King Fukang County to choose concubines, so as long as the school-age girls who received the invitation came.

The garden of the eldest princess's mansion is very large, and it has been arranged at this time, and flowers and plants are placed on both sides of the road and some pavilions and other places, plus the flowers and plants that have been planted in the garden, it is really full of flowers, purple and red.

There are also some tables and chairs in the open space in the center of the garden for the flower-admiring boys and ladies to rest. There are also melons and fruits on the table for people to eat, and if you want to drink tea, there are also people to prepare.

When they arrived at the garden, Xiao Jinyue said a few words and let everyone spread out to enjoy the flowers, and later she wanted everyone to compose poems on the theme of flowers and plants, and whoever wrote poems well was rewarded.

All the sons and ladies were interested when they heard it, and if they wrote their own poems later, they could not only have prizes, but also leave a good impression on their favorite people. It would be better if it was in the eyes of any prince.

Xiao Jinyue was afraid that the young people present would be uncomfortable, so she entrusted Xie Yunze to Xiao Yilin and left the garden. There is Steward Liu on the scene, so she doesn't need to worry about it for the time being.

Xie Yunze is also the master, and he can also call the shots in some things with him.

Jingyi has a natural affinity for plants, and now she is very interested in seeing so many exotic flowers and plants.

Xiao Yilin saw that the little girl liked it, so he accompanied her to enjoy the flowers.

Xiao Yiyan and Xie Yunze are naturally together.

It's just that Xiao Yilin doesn't know anything about flowers and plants, but Xie Yunze is very familiar with these flowers and plants raised by his mother.

Therefore, when encountering some rare flowers and plants, Xie Yunze will take the initiative to introduce them to Jing Yi. Slowly, Jing Yi would also take the initiative to ask him, and the two of them gradually became familiar with each other.

Suddenly, Jingyi saw a pot of plants with red and green fruits, and her eyes lit up, and she immediately walked to the plant and took a closer look.

Xie Yunze said beside him: "This is what Steward Liu got from a Hu merchant, when he saw the novelty and bought the red fruits, and then his mother tried to plant the seeds in the red fruits, and the seedlings really grew, and then they bore these fruits."

At first, the fruit is green, and then it slowly turns red, and it looks very beautiful and festive. My mother also liked it very much, and it looked good in the room. ”

Jing Yi nodded when he heard this, indeed, people at this time didn't know that this tomato was edible, but just regarded it as an ornamental plant.

Jing Yi touched a red tomato with her hand, and used her ability to probe the essence of the plant, this is indeed an edible tomato.

Jing Yi's eyes lit up, she turned her head and said to Xie Yunze with a smile: "King Fukang, this is a good thing, it is called tomato, also called tomato, it is edible." It can be eaten raw, made into a dish, or used as a soup to make a seasoning or an adjunct, and it can be used to make many delicacies. ”

Xie Yunze was very interested when he heard this, "Oh, so this is also a kind of food?" An Lehou knows how to cook with it? Then I'd like to try it. ”

Jing Yi nodded, "I'll make it for you when I have the chance, you'll definitely like it." ”

Jing Yi faced Xie Yunze's face, and would always unconsciously regard him as his comrade-in-arms Mu Yuze, and he would unconsciously feel close, so he spoke a lot more casually.

Xie Yunze directly picked two tomatoes that were already red and handed them to Jing Yi and said, "Otherwise, let's try it today?" Maybe it can make our people have one more food on the table. ”

Jing Yi looked at the tomatoes in his hand and smiled: "That's no problem, tomatoes cook quickly." ”

Xiao Yilin, who was next to him, looked at his cousin talking and laughing with the little girl, and his heart was as heavy as a stone.

When he first met the little girl, the little girl treated him like a doctor and a patient, and it took a long time for the two of them to talk casually.

But now the little girl and her cousin met for the first time, and they quickly talked and laughed, looking like old friends who had known each other for a long time.

Xiao Yilin's heart spread with an emotion that he didn't understand, anyway, he wanted to separate the two people in front of him now. At this time, he regretted that he had brought the little girl to his aunt's flower-viewing banquet.

Jing Yi accidentally discovered tomatoes, and became more interested in these exotic flowers and plants collected by the eldest princess in the eldest princess's mansion. There are tomatoes, and maybe other edible plants from abroad.

After that, Jing Yi observed every flower and plant very carefully.
