The 20th of June is coming soon.

God is very face-giving, the weather is sunny and the temperature is pleasant.

Yesterday it was hot and sweaty, but today the temperature has dropped slightly, and there is a breeze that makes people feel comfortable.

Because someone has calculated the auspicious time, the main banquet for the birthday is at noon.

Many adults can't come over, but ladies and ladies can still come.

Of course, there are also adults who are just resting and can come over, so the front yard needs someone to socialize.

Grandpa Feng and Uncle Xiao, who happened to be resting, directly took on this responsibility.

Two people, one official and one businessman, are just right, taking into account the people at the corresponding level.

In the backyard, Xiao Nianzhi was the mainstay, assisted by his aunt and cousin-in-law, and Wei Zhiqiu and Yan Changxia also came over early to help.

Although Xiao Nianzhi is a young junior, she still has an official position in the officialdom.

Therefore, it is not only the young ladies who came, but also many noble ladies.

There were also a lot of adults in the front yard, and a few of the old colleagues from Shanglin Yuan also came.

The meals prepared by the imperial chefs will definitely be fine, and they will not lose Xiao Nianzhi's face.

There was still some time before the official opening of the banquet, and Xiao Nianzhi simply took these people to the backyard for a walk.

The man-made lake in the backyard has been planted with lotus flowers.

Although it has not opened now, the branches and leaves have been stretched, and it looks very fresh, and the refreshing greenery gives people a very relaxing feeling.

Zhao Yunshu and Zhang Xinning, who already have some friendship with Xiao Nianzhi, are very face-saving, and they come to her from time to time to talk.

During this period, Xiao Nianzhi's sharp eyes were discovered......

Well, the building also sent someone over.

She remembered that the Lou family was a young generation, and the main family had no daughters, but there were granddaughters on the side.

came over today, looking a little scared, Xiao Nianzhi was not sure which one it was.

The other party came with Mrs. Lou, but after coming in, everyone soon separated again.

There is communication between ladies, and among young people, there is also their own circle.

The daughter of the Lou family was not excluded, but it seems that most of the people who socialize with her are the daughters of petty officials.

Some Xiao Nianzhi didn't have any impressions, but vaguely remembered that when he received him, he met in a hurry and knew each other.

Xiao Nianzhi was puzzled, but the distance between them was too close, Xiao Nianzhi didn't want to ask too much, saved a lot of words, and floated along the breeze, which embarrassed everyone.

The view of the new house is good, everyone is very happy to watch, and there is enough space to play games.

Now that it's summer, everyone is happy to be out and about to avoid the hottest time at noon, and at other times, the ladies want to come out and toss around.

So, as soon as I saw that I could play the game, everyone became active.

Xiao Nianzhi took this opportunity to quietly ask Yan Changxia: "...... is the Lou family here?"

Wei Zhiqiu was beside him, thinking that the two of them wanted to whisper.

Listening with his ears pricked up, he found that he didn't know the girl of the house either, and then stood up straight with no interest.

Regarding this question, Yan Changxia really knew: "That's the second girl from Loufu, Lou Ning, hmm...... It's a concubine."

As soon as she heard that it was a concubine, Xiao Nianzhi knew that this should be the girl of the main family.

She nodded knowingly, and then heard Yan Changxia quickly add: "This looks okay, at least she is sensible and interesting, and she doesn't fight or grab, but Mrs. Guanlou is willing to take her, so she knows that she won't treat her harshly, compared to the previous one, it's much better."

The one before?

Who's it?

Xiao Nianzhi pulled at her memory, and vaguely seemed to have such a Lou family girl, who had traveled in the capital in a high-profile manner, but she had never seen it.

Listening to Yan Changxia's meaning, isn't it the one in front of you?

Moreover, Xiao Nianzhi felt that it didn't look too much

Like.

The capital's treatment of the concubine has always been obvious.

Even if they are the concubines of powerful families, most of them are low-key people.

As long as it is not the head of the family who spoils the concubine and kills his wife, it will not happen because of the chaos of the concubine, and the concubine will step on the head of the concubine and.

However, Xiao Nianzhi did have some impressions of the high-profile trip of the Lou family's concubine before.

But, it seems, for a long time, I didn't notice that person again.

Xiao Nianzhi thought, could it be that she has been too busy recently and has not paid attention to it?

Soon, Yan Changxia explained the reason in a low voice: "The eldest girl of the Lou family before was more arrogant than many of the daughters of the Lou family, traveling back and forth, and she just wanted to beat the gongs and drums to tell everyone that the noble girl of the Lou family traveled, and pedestrians gave way."

Wei Zhiqiu listened on the side, and rolled his eyes elegantly: "The one who suffered a great crime with you before?"

Xiao Nianzhi: ?

Well, what did she hear?

Regarding the incident of being tied up before, Yan Changxia no longer has a psychological shadow, and now when he mentions it, he is also very relaxed: "Well, it's her, she used to feel familiar, and she didn't remember it carefully, but later Lou Shen told me."

Speaking of this, Yan Changxia pursed his lips unhappily and whispered, "Lord Lou is sometimes confused, just doting on that concubine's mother? Still sent the building to sink out to find her? What a big face!"

If it weren't for the wrong occasion, Yan Changxia would even want to take a sip!

Hearing this, Xiao Nianzhi understood a little.

Although Lord Lou did not favor the concubine and kill his wife, he did favor a certain aunt, and even took the concubine from the other party to go out on the street in a high-profile manner.

Wei Zhiqiu listened on the side and nodded approvingly: "What are you talking about? However, this may be the reason why he has been hanging on his idle post, eating the shadow seal, and he can't get any real power, his brain is not clear, and it is strange that the emperor's uncle can use him!"

Lord Lou is the Marquis of Nan'an, inherited by his ancestor Shangyin.

As for official positions?

Hung in the Hanlin Academy, named: Auxiliary Bachelor.

However, this official position is in Dajin, pure rich and noble idlers, who want money and power?

That didn't.

In detail, now that he has entered the Hanlin Academy and become the son of the Lou family of Shu Jishi, he has more say than his father in the Hanlin Academy.

Xiao Nianzhi listened to the side, nodded clearly, and then asked curiously, "What about the girl from the Lou family before?"

Today's coming is not the same as the previous ironclad.

The previous one, Mrs. Lou was probably reluctant to bring it.

Who's going to put it, who doesn't respond to it?

In this regard, Yan Changxia whispered: "Well, pack it hastily and marry the second son of the Zhao family who has returned to Xizhou."

Xizhou is the ancestral home of the Zhao family, and the younger generation has not made any mistakes, so they will not be directly sent back to their hometown.

After all, in comparison, it must be that the capital is more abundant in resources and has a broader development.

Xiao Nianzhi thought that there seemed to be a son in the Zhao family who was very close to Lu Jingyuan before, and after the incident of the White Horse Temple last time, Yan Xingxuan once said that the other party was sent back to Xizhou.

Could it be that you are married to this one?
