Chapter 153: Going to the Feast

Nowadays, from the first day to the fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, relatives and friends take turns to invite guests to dinner, not only between relatives, but also between friends.

For example, in a high-ranking family, these interpersonal relationships are more involved, which produces a contradiction, a total of fifteen days, you come and go, how can you be busy?

Therefore, there is a new trick, that is, dispersion.

For example, if you meet on the same day, then go to one by one.

And this has to be scheduled in advance, so as not to bump into the real can't pull out people, and it's a little embarrassing.

I'm even more afraid that people will think that you went to this house, but that one doesn't go, and there are some people who can't let others do it for you, such as some of Xie Yuncang's colleagues in the officialdom, it's always difficult to ask your family to go.

There is another exception here, and that is between the girls who have not been out of the cabinet.

First, it is not good for the girl's family to go out alone to meet guests, and if it is a movement between families, it is not decent to send a girl who is not married.

Second, if you go out to meet guests, it means that the daughter's family at home did not bring it over, and there is not much hindrance.

Therefore, this is the first month, and the ladies in the high-ranking families are also popular to hold tea parties.

Over the years, the atmosphere has become more and more popular, and the emphasis here has become more and more.

For example, just like those treats between adults, you need to invite them in the next post.

And here, there is a difference between the doors.

For example, such as the Huaiwang Mansion, the Eldest Princess's Mansion, or the British Mansion and the Gao Mansion, the guests of these girls are particularly eye-catching.

When you really go to high society, you pay attention to a circle.

Right now, it's just the girls playing together at the banquet, but after a few years, they will be the daughters-in-law in various mansions, and what they hold in their hands are the network resources that can help their father and brother.

Therefore, the adults in the family are happy to see that their daughter's family can receive invitations from some girls who are higher than their own families.

The Gao Mansion had no contact with the Xie family in the past, but it was only in the past six months that a little closeness had been born, and it was only limited to the inner house.

At present, the eldest girl of the Gao family personally ordered an invitation to invite the three girls of the Xie family, where is there any displeasure in the Xie family?

Even Xie Yuncang acquiesced.

Xie Yuncang of the Gao family may still be watching and doesn't want to get too close to him, but the daughters go to the Gao family for a banquet, but it's another matter, after all, no one will treat the girls' exchanges as if the two families are moving around.

Before Xie Songhua could excuse himself, the old lady asked someone to send clothes and jewelry.

Peony smiled Yan Yan's appearance, "The old lady said, the girl has always been bad, and she hasn't gone out for the New Year, so she must dress up brightly for a while, and suppress the sick spirit, and when the New Year is over, everything will be fine." ”

The peony came all the way with a tray in hand, and the whole house soon knew about it.

Xie Songhua also knew what the old lady meant, the prince had released such rumors before, she was asking Xie Songhua to go out and earn face by herself.

But she is a half-lady, what do you do to earn face?

But if you want to refuse, there are two ways, either pretending to be sick or having an accident.

Xie Songhua can think of it, but what about after this?

The Xie family didn't want a useless daughter, which she knew when she first came to the Xie family.

It is important to have Xie Yuncang's blood on her body, but it is not that important, the most important thing is that she has to be like a daughter of the Xie family.

If now because of the prince's affairs, she is dormant again, then all the previous efforts, what is it for?

Yu Ruzhuo was surprised by her decision to participate, "Are you really planning to go?" The battlefield of these boudoir women is no weaker than the edge between men. ”

"There will always be a day when I go out to see the world, and if I have never been in this room, then I am not too unambitious?"

When the old lady heard that Xie Songhua came to inquire about the preferences and habits of the eldest girl of the Gao family, she really smiled, "This is what my Xie family's girl should be, don't take the initiative to cause trouble, but don't be afraid of things in case of trouble, it is the most important thing." ”

On the tenth day of the new year, Xie Songhua really came out dressed in a new dress.

I saw that she was wearing a rose-purple makeup gown, a goose-yellow horse-faced skirt tied underneath, a single screw bun, and a tired silk phoenix hairpin, and the tassel was made of very small beads in a silk style, and there was a bright pink light.

Originally, such rose and purple clothes were the easiest to oppress people, so ordinary ladies really wore this color, and they had to apply heavy powder.

But in this way, it is inevitable that there will be two more points of maturity, so the average girl does not wear this, and most of them are women.

Originally, a few months after she returned to the Xie family, some people said that her own foundation was white and she could always be raised.

Who knew that after more than half a year, it was even whiter than Xie Sihua, who had the whitest skin.

He also had a pair of round eyes, a smooth forehead, and was only decorated with broken hair on his temples, which immediately complemented his clothes.

Xie Shuhua saw Xie Songhua at a glance, and even though she was stunned, she felt a little blocked for no reason.

Although she has always been reluctant to admit it, at this moment, she finally has to say that Xie Songhua is indeed a good birth.

Sitting with Xie Sihua, the two sisters are like spring flowers and autumn moons, but she has fallen a layer in this appearance.

Xie Shuhua complained about the old lady in her heart, for so many years, she has never seen such good jewelry for herself, in the past, she often said that she was her favorite granddaughter, but it was just talking.

The three sisters rode in the same carriage, but neither of them wanted to take care of the other.

Xie Sihua has always been proud, but now seeing that the two of them seem to have a future, he is even more reluctant to flatter, so he just closes his eyes and pretends to sleep.

In the small alley of Gao's house, it has long been blocked by horse-drawn carriages.

I also want to know that in such a lively season, the banquet of the Gao family is afraid that it will not stop, and it is normal for the guests to be full every day.

When I entered the second gate and followed the servant woman who led the way, I realized how lively it was.

Xie Songhua was also able to see what the situation of the aristocratic inner house of the top of the dynasty was like.

Although the servants who come and go are shuttling endlessly, but if you look closely, they are very orderly, not chaotic at all, even when they see the guests they don't know, they are not slacking off at all, and the auspicious words are not blunt at all, and people feel at home.

All the way to the flower hall arranged by Gao Ying, Xie Songhua heard the voices of three different troupes, which shows its prosperity.

The most terrible thing is that the Gao family's garden is really big, and there is more than one, and it took a full quarter of an hour to walk from the place where Fang had just gotten off the carriage.

I didn't know how much money I gave along the way, so Xie Songhua had to feel distressed in his heart.

"Yikes! Three sisters, four sisters, seven sisters, you are here? ”

Hearing a girl's voice, Xie Songhua hurriedly looked over, and it turned out to be an acquaintance, Zhou Wenyou's third girl, Zhou Yuan.

But obviously Zhou Yuan is still familiar with Xie Shuhua and Xie Sihua, but after saying hello to her, she laughed with the other two people.

She took the place of the master and welcomed them in, and Xie Songhua was immediately seen by the warbler Yanyan in this room.

"This is the fourth girl of the Xie family! We've seen your two sisters, but it's the first time we've seen the four girls! ”

A young girl greeted her with a smile, and directly grabbed Xie Songhua's arm and dragged her inside, "Come and see the beauty." ”
