"Zhen'er is right, my mother doesn't like these hypocritical pandering, but I can't bear the host sending invitations several times, and my mother always refutes people's face."

What kind of character Su Rongyue is, Rong Zhen couldn't be clearer.

Although she couldn't find any fault in her words, Rong Zhen could see the playfulness in her expression clearly.

Not only can she see it, but Su Rongyue herself knows that today's encounter is actually a Hongmen banquet, but it is difficult to say who is calculating who in the end.

In Rong Zhen's memory, she doesn't remember when Su Rongyue suffered a loss.

As for the grievances between Su Rongyue and Mrs. Tanglin Marquis, Rong Zhen didn't know, but she clearly remembered that in the last life, since the birthday banquet of Mrs. Tanglin Marquis, there has been no contact between Rongwangfu and Dongling Marquis's Mansion.

The forces in Shengjing are intertwined, so even if there is a grudge, it will not be old and dead, so we know the depth of the grudge between the two families at today's banquet.

What happened, Rong Zhen didn't know, she was not with Su Rongyue in her previous life, but she vaguely heard Su Rongyue say that she had a lot to do with her father.

As for the relationship, from Su Rongyue's expression, Rong Zhen had already guessed seven or eight points.

"Mother, don't tell Zhen'er what kind of character this Donglin Marquis Lady is."

Seeing the shallow banter in Rong Zhen's eyes, Su Rongyue glanced at her angrily, "You girl, you dare to make fun of me now." ”

Seeing this, Rong Zhen gently pulled Su Rongyue's sleeve and coquettishly, "Where did my mother say, how dare Zhen'er." ”

For this Mrs. Tanglin Marquis, Rong Zhen also knows a little, Miss Yan of the Nanping Marquis Mansion, even if there are countless powerful people in Shengjing, this identity can be regarded as noble.

In Shengjing, there are only five major families who enjoy the title, the Rong family of the Rong Wangfu, the Mu family of the Regent Prince's Mansion, the Shen family of the Tanglin Marquis Mansion, the Jiang family of the Nanping Marquis Mansion, and there is one more, which is the Guogong Mansion to support the family.

Mrs. Tanglin Marquis's name is Jiang Tong, and she is the continuation of the marriage after the death of the Marquis of Tanglin, and if there are more, Rong Zhen will not know.

"Mother, just talk to Zhen'er."

Seeing Rong Hao's curious look, Su Rongyue slowly spoke, "Back then, your father had just reached the marriageable age, as the son of Rong Wangfu, and he was born with a good appearance, there are naturally many ladies in Shengjing vying for the door of the Rong family, and the one with the highest voice is Jiang Tong. ”

Jiang Tong not only has a beautiful appearance and a moonlight, but also a noble background, and Rong Zhen's father Rong Jinxun can be described as a match made in heaven.

So at that time, almost the entire Sheng Kyoto recognized that the position of Princess Rong belonged to Jiang Tong.

Jiang Zhi himself thought so, but who would have thought that Su Rongyue would be killed halfway, making Jiang Zhi the laughing stock of the entire Shengjing.

"And then?"

Hearing Su Rongyue say this, Rong Zhen's eyes suddenly became a little interested.

Su Rongyue and Rong Jinxun were once in the past, but Rong Zhen rarely heard the two mention it.

"Although Jiang Zhi is born and looks superior, it is not your father's mind.

So the Jiang family secretly hinted at your deceased grandfather several times, but never got a response.

Later, when your father left Shengjing once, he met me, and fell in love at first sight, and there was nothing wrong with Jiang Tong. ”

After listening, Rong Zhen's eyes were dyed with a little smile, it turned out that today was the birthday banquet of the rival in the past.

"Then Jiang Tong insisted on inviting his mother to come over, ......"

"Just to show me that she's doing well."

Su Rongyue said it easily, as for the rest, she didn't think Jiang Yan could calculate anything.

Rong Zhen nodded, "Right and wrong, comfortable in people's hearts, whether life is good or bad, no one knows better than herself, and now like this, it seems to be a little childish." ”

Hearing this, Su Rongyue's eyes lit up, and her voice was full of appreciation, "Zhen'er can see it clearly." ”

Su Rongyue didn't expect that Rong Zhen would be able to figure out these things at her age.

"If Zhen'er is not mistaken, Jiang Tong should have only given birth to a daughter after passing the door, the only son of the Tanglin Marquis Mansion, but it came from the belly of the concubine."

"What Zhen'er said is right, not only that, but the concubine is quite favored, so much so that Jiang Tong's prestige in the mansion has dropped again and again over the years."

It can be said that how Jiang Tong is doing, how many discerning people in Sheng Jing can see it clearly, and now this is just self-deception.

*

Rong Zhen and Su Rongyue's appearances are rare in Shengjing, so even if the two of them find a secluded corner, they will still be noticed after a while.

Next to the rockery, several gorgeously dressed ladies looked at Su Rongyue's mother and daughter in the garden from time to time, with a strong look of inquiry on their faces.

"Whose girl is that, I have never seen such a beautiful girl?"

There are a lot of such banquets in Shengjing, and there are even more official wives and ladies who walk around each other, one is to maintain the relationship on the surface, and the other is to find suitable relatives for their own son-in-law.

However, Rong Zhen and Su Rongyue rarely go to banquets, so they don't know much about the mother and daughter.

"It's not common to have such a look, isn't it a young lady from a small official's family?"

Hearing someone say this, the lady who was still very enthusiastic just now instantly lost a little interest.

It is true that a woman is good-looking, but if she does not have a good background, it is also useless.

After all, the affairs of the children and daughters in the family are ostensibly a union between families, but in fact they are just a feud of interests.

These official ladies in Shengjing, no matter how good they are, if they don't have a good family background, then the best ending is just a poor wife, if they are not good, they can only be a concubine, looking at the face of the master's mother.

The breeze gently blows through the calm lake and creates a few ripples on the calm surface of the lake.

In the pavilion not far from the lake, six or seven official ladies surrounded a very delicately dressed girl about fourteen or fifteen years old, and her appearance looked quite respectful.

"Fifth Miss, isn't the material of this dress the water light brocade that is hard to find in Shengjing?"

Hearing someone mention the fabric on his body, Shen Ling, that is, the fifth lady in the mouth, raised the corners of her mouth proudly.

Shen Ling, the fifth lady from the Tanglin Marquis's Mansion, and her biological mother is the favorite concubine of the Tanglin Marquis just mentioned by Rong Zhen and Su Rongyue, Yao.

The only son of the Tanglin Marquis Mansion is Shen Ling's own brother.

So even if Shen Ling is just a concubine, her status in the mansion is no less than that of Miss Yan, and even a few points higher.

Because of this, they have been sought after by these official ladies.

Before Shen Ling could speak, another voice opened her mouth for Shen Ling, and her words were full of flattery, "What is Shui Guangjin, look at the jade hairpin on the fifth lady, which one is not a boutique?" ”

Hearing this, the smug look on Shen Ling's face became more and more intense.

His eyes were slightly raised, and his gaze inadvertently stopped at the stunning red figure among the flowers, and his expression gradually became a little colder.

"Whose lady is that?"
