Chapter 26: Flower Viewing Banquet or Hongmen Banquet?
The title of Dingguo Mansion is not worthy of the name and is destined to be targeted.
Wen didn't expect her daughter to see it so clearly, so she told again, "You have to be careful and follow your eldest aunt and your second sister closely." β

Yun Shiyan received the news, and she didn't understand how someone could hand over a post to their family at this flower-viewing banquet, she couldn't figure it out after thinking for a while, so she went to her mother's yard, "Mother, my aunt will take me and my fifth sister to the flower-viewing banquet in three days." β
Second Lady Ye frowned, "It's impossible for your eldest aunt to take the initiative to bring a little wine to the flower viewing banquet at this time, so someone can only name someone to bring a little wine, and you will be a target when you go." β
"The eldest sister is not here, so why should I, the second sister, be a target once?" Yun Shi smiled lightly, without a trace of fear of the flower viewing banquet, "In the past, it was the eldest sister who protected us, but now, I am protecting the younger sister below." β
She knew that fear was of no use, it would only make some people happy, and she would not let them be happy.
Ye Shi smiled and nodded, "That's the truth, one is prosperous and one is lost, no matter how much trouble you make at home, you must be consistent with the outside world." β

Lin asked the needlework room to make a new set of clothes for Yun Shichen and Yun Chujiu, and three days later, the carriage of the Dingguo Mansion rushed to the place of the flower-viewing banquet: Rui Wang's Mansion.
There is a peach grove in the back garden of King Rui's mansion, I heard that Princess Rui likes peach blossoms, and Prince Rui specially asked people to plant it for the princess.
Today, none of the holy princes have yet to be crowned kings, and now those who can be called princes are all holy brothers.
In the carriage, Yun Chujiu and Yun Shiyan sat opposite the Lin family, Yun Chujiu was wearing a light blue full-breasted skirt, smiling and complimenting, "The clothes made by the eldest aunt are so beautiful." β
Lin saw that the little girl was happy, and he was also happy in his heart, and couldn't help but tease her, "How does it compare to what your mother asked you to do?" β
"Of course it's just as good." Yun Chujiu said without thinking about it.
Yun Shi covered her mouth and chuckled, "Fortunately, the fifth sister is not like the third uncle, otherwise she will definitely say that the clothes made by the third aunt are good-looking." β
The carriage of the Dingguo Mansion stopped outside the Rui Wang's Mansion, and many carriages had been parked outside the Rui Wang's Mansion.
The three of Lin got out of the carriage and handed the post to the gatekeeper, who let them in.
Princess Rui's daughter-in-law, Chen, greeted the guests at the door, and when she saw the three of the Lin family, she greeted them with a smile, "Duchess Guo, please." β
Lin smiled and nodded, and walked inside with his two nieces, with a subordinate leading the way in front.
When the other powerful ladies and ladies saw them, they chatted one after anotherβ
"That's the Duchess of Dingguo, I rarely see people from the Dingguo Mansion at the flower viewing banquet, who are those two girls next to her?"
"There is one who is the second lady Yun Shijiu, and the other one, I haven't seen it, I guess it should be the fifth miss Yun Chujiu who just came back, the one who was dismissed by the right prime minister's mansion."
"I heard that not long ago, it was this fifth lady who was divorced who won an activity to write the name of a dish and got Mr. Sanssouc's book."
Someone couldn't help laughing, "Those from the countryside can't be on the stage, and they will only be able to do these vulgar things, which of our daughters will participate in this event?" β
An Ningyuan happened to walk next to them, and when she heard their slanderous words, she smiled softly, "I'm sorry, I participated, and Young Master Jing also participated." β
She strode forward with a single sentence, leaving everyone looking at each other.
"What's going on with An Ningyuan? Does she know Yunchujiu? β
"The Dingguo Mansion and the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Rites are separated by an alley, maybe they really know each other."
Before the flower-viewing feast officially began, everyone was ushered into the flower hall, the ladies sat on one side, the daughters sat on the other, and everyone sat next to their good sisters.
No one wants to get close to the two sisters of Yun Chujiu, Yun Chujiu and Yun Shiyan don't care, it's better for no one to pay attention to them, they are happy.
Mrs. Ning Shi was also there, she looked at Yun Chujiu curiously, and when she saw her beautiful face, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
It's a pity that she has no fate, and it is impossible for the Wen family to let Yun Chujiu make her son a concubine, it's a pity that face.
Someone couldn't stay idle, "Miss Yun Wu, I heard that you have lived in the countryside since you were a child, and you are accompanied by pigs and dogs all day long, will you be infected with some strange smells?" β
Some rumors have changed their flavor as they spread.
Only the poor will eat pork, which is obviously a joke about Yun Chujiu.
Yun Shiyan was about to speak, Yun Chujiu held her hand, shook her head slightly, and then looked at the person who spoke, "The little piglet has grown up to become a delicacy on the table, and the dog will take care of the house, but I am busy planting vegetables and flowers in the countryside, and I don't have time to raise pigs and dogs." β
"You want to know if I have some strange smell on me, or do you want to smell it yourself?"
The daughter choked suddenly.
Lin was still a little worried that Xiao Jiu would not be able to cope with it, but now when she saw Xiao Jiu tearing it up, her smile couldn't help but ripple in her eyes, and she hurriedly pretended to drink tea.
Xiaojiu's words are not leaky, even if others look at her unpleasantly, they can't find her fault, and they can choke others, Xiaojiu is really good, she underestimated her.
When Gu Hualing, the youngest daughter of Taifu, heard this, she raised her eyes and glanced at Yun Chujiu, and quickly retracted her gaze.
In her capacity, she doesn't want to talk to someone who spends her days with pigs and dogs.
But some people can't help it, "It's not a shame for some people to go out all day long after they quit their relatives." β
Yun Shiyan smiled softly, "You mean it's a shame to participate in the flower viewing banquet?" β
"You-" The man's face turned red from being frightened, she didn't dare to respond to this, and when Princess Rui heard it, she was miserable.
Yun Chujiu also smiled, "I have lived in the countryside since I was a child, and I am not worthy of the eldest young master of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, and I have divorced, I have nothing to do with him, I don't feel ashamed." β
At this time, Princess Rui came out with a smile, she was dressed in gorgeous clothes, said a few words to everyone, and took her wife and daughters to the back garden.
Princess Rui sat in the most honorable position, the ladies sat on her right hand, the daughters sat on her left, and not far away was a large peach tree, full of peach blossoms.
Flower viewing feast, in addition to flower appreciation, is to eat.
"It's really thanks to the princess that I was lucky enough to see this large area of peach blossoms in full bloom."
"The relationship between the prince and the princess is the envy of the world."
Hearing everyone's words, Princess Rui smiled from ear to ear.
Until the end of the banquet, Princess Rui did not mention a word about the Dingguo Mansion, as if she did not invite the Dingguo Mansion.
On the way back, Yun Chujiu leaned lazily on the carriage, "It's really delicious." β
After the banquet began, no one paid attention to Yun Chu Wine, and Yun Chu Wine was addicted to food and couldn't extricate himself.
Yun Shiyan smiled and said, "I can't compare to the chicken legs you make, Fifth Sister." β
