"Fourth girl, it's time to get up." Qing Huan lifted the curtain next to the bed and called softly.

The girl on the bed rolled over in displeasure, revealing a small white face. Qinghuan didn't urge, but after waiting for a while, she reminded softly: "Fourth girl, you are going to participate in the second princess's hundred flowers banquet today."

Hundred Flowers Feast! Jiang Shuyao instantly sobered up. The second princess, Xue Xuan, is the daughter of Concubine De. And Concubine De is the daughter of Zuo Chengzhen's family. In recent days, Zuo Cheng has faintly pressed Zuo Cheng in the court, and Concubine De is now proud.

The purpose of the second princess to host the banquet is obvious.

It's autumn, and it's not a good time for flowers to bloom. The second princess, Xue Xuan, dared to hold a hundred flowers banquet at this time, and her intentions were undisguised.

But...... Jiang Shuyao didn't care what her purpose was. The reason why she values today so much is because, if she remembers correctly, today is the first time the prince has seen Jiang Shurou in the original book.

"Quick, freshen up for me." Jiang Shuyao sat up from the bed and walked quickly to the mirror.

Now, she is eleven years old, and her little face is becoming more and more beautiful. Because she has been exercising with Sister Huo every day since she was four years old, her body is now very well-proportioned. It's just that the baby fat on the face hasn't faded yet.

But it's okay, she's still young, so she's not in a hurry.

After finishing the meal, Jiang Shuyao ran to find his mother in a hurry. It is said to be a flower-viewing banquet, but in fact, it is also a large-scale blind date for men and women of appropriate age. Now that the eldest sister and brother have reached the age of marriage, she has to take a good look at each other for them.

As soon as Yo Youxuan came out, Jiang Shuyao was so cold that he wrapped his coat tightly. The autumn wind is still a little cool. She was forced to slow down.

"Mother," as soon as he arrived at the main courtyard, Jiang Shuyao couldn't help but pat his cold little face: "It's really cold today."

Seeing this, Chen took her hand and touched it. Her hands were still hot, and Chen was relieved.

She took the opportunity to pull Jiang Shuyao to the table: "Early this morning, the shopkeeper of 'Cat Talk' sent the bill for last month. You come and see. ”

"Cat Talk" is a pet shop opened by Jiang Shuyao. When it first opened, business was unexpectedly booming. But Jiang Shuyao thought that business might not be so good in a few years. Just in case, she later added some cat toys, cat food and the like.

Sure enough, after the frenzy of buying cats, the turnover of pet stores gradually decreased. But fortunately, there is still some small profit every month, so as not to lose money.

As early as the beginning of today, Chen began to teach Jiang Shuyao to read the account book. Now she also asks Jiang Shuyao to come by herself from time to time.

"Last month's profit was lower than usual?" Jiang Shuyao was a little puzzled. No, in recent years, the monthly ledger has been almost the same. How can it be lowered all of a sudden?

Jiang Shuyao looked at Chen, hoping to get an answer from her.

"If I'm not mistaken," Chen is a little unsure about how busy things have been going on lately: "It seems that a new store has opened in Jingzhong."

'Cat Talk' has been open for so many years, and behind it is the Xuanping Marquis Mansion, which almost anyone with a heart can find out. In this case, there are still people who dare to blatantly provoke, and it is not easy to think that the identity is not simple.

may be thinking about Jiang Shurou, Jiang Shuyao immediately thought of the crown prince Xue Qiong. After all, how can the male protagonist of the novel have no money? So in the original book, Xue Qiong opened many shops behind her back.

But whoever it is, it doesn't matter. After all, seeing that the pet store business is good, sooner or later someone will follow suit. Jiang Shuyao just wanted to open a new shop.

"Does Mother know whose shop is next to 'Cat Talk'?"

"Oh?" Chen guessed his daughter's thoughts in an instant: "Yoyo has a new idea?"

Jiang Shuyao sold a pass: "Don't tell my mother first." If I can buy that shop, I'll tell my mother about it. ”

But...... The owner of the shop who wanted to come didn't necessarily agree.

There is only one shop next to 'Cat Talk', which is a tea house. However, on weekdays, it seems that not many people go. But for so many years, even if the business is bleak, I have never heard that the boss has any plans to transfer.

Jiang Shuyao's face wrinkled in confusion.

Forget it, it's good to have time to ask, it's useless to think about it here for a long time.

"Mother, do you have an eyebrow for your brother?"

Speaking of his son's affairs, Chen was a little worried. Her son is already sixteen years old, but he is still reluctant to marry. I don't know what's going on, she and Jiang Xu have looked down on so many girls, but Jiang Huai looks down on all of them.

When asked about him, he also said that he had no interest in women for the time being. What are these words?

"A few days ago, your father and I helped him see the second girl of Mrs. Li's family. That's a girl raised by Taifu, and she doesn't have to say anything about etiquette, and she doesn't have to pick her appearance. But he was not satisfied. Chen rubbed his eyebrows angrily: "If it goes on like this, your brother is afraid that he will be suspected of having a habit of breaking sleeves."

Jiang Shuyao was also very helpless. His brother is not like the eldest brother, he is addicted to reading, and he is not like Sister Huo, who focuses on martial arts all day long. I don't know what he does on weekdays, but he's not interested in getting married.

She looked at him, but he just didn't catch that tendon.

"Mother is not angry." Jiang Shuyao skillfully rubbed it for her mother: "At the banquet today, I'll help my brother pay more attention."

But what about paying attention? The girls with the right conditions in the capital are about to be noticed by them.

Chen could only comfort himself, it's okay, maybe there is an omission. Maybe he will go to the banquet and have the girl he likes.

"At the banquet, I won't tell you about etiquette or anything. Remember, don't get into trouble with others, but don't be bullied either. Feeling the right amount of strength from this daughter, Chen gradually relaxed. In the end, it is still the daughter's intimacy.

Now it is different from the past, and now the eldest prince and the crown prince have a tendency to fight openly and secretly. The Xuanping Marquis Mansion automatically belonged to the camp of the three princes because of Chen's younger sister, Concubine Shu, in their opinion.

For them, Xuanping Hou is still worth wooing, and he will not easily turn his face. But if one side is defeated and the three princes are targeted by the victorious side, their mansion may inevitably be targeted.

So, leave less handles, no matter what, it's good.

"My daughter understands." Jiang Shuyao naturally understood.

"Okay, I'm not going to keep you. Hurry up and get ready, and go to the feast. ”

"Okay."

The safest thing in the Xuanping Marquis Mansion is that there is no real power, and the most dangerous thing is that there is no real power. But whether it's good or bad, who can tell?

Fortunately, only with the foundation of the Xuanping Marquis Mansion in the capital, no one dares to move it for the time being.

Jiang Shuyao gently lifted the hem of her skirt and walked briskly into the distance.
