At noon the next day, several carriages with the word "Sheng" written on thick cotton curtains went to the mansion of Qi State.

Lu Ze took his family to visit other families at the end of the year, and this meeting was actually rare.

Because the general visit is separate for men and women.

The scale of the banquet held by the Duke of Qi this time was quite large, and many Houmen families were invited, which to a certain extent showed the heritage of the Duke of Qi.

Lu Ze also changed the dark green of his official uniform to crimson a few years ago.

Otherwise, the Qi family may not invite the Sheng family.

After half an hour's effort, Lu Ze and his party came to their destination.

I saw that the gate of Qi Mansion was open, a pair of gold and red couplets were hung on both sides, and dense red firecrackers were also hoisted high.

Just from the outside, you can vaguely feel the grandeur of this Qi State Mansion.

It's no wonder that everyone in Bianjing City regards the little grandfather Qi Heng as a fragrant dumpling, in addition to the appearance and temperament of this little grandfather, the family background behind him is also the key, this is the future Qi Guogong who is sure of it.

There are special maids and maids waiting to lure people into the house at the door.

Lu Ze wanted to separate from the female scrolls, so he slightly instructed the eldest lady and the three daughters around him to say a few words.

"Officials rest assured."

"I'll take care of these three girls."

Enter the house.

Everyone only felt that the eyes suddenly became open, the structure and layout of the small bridge and flowing water were refreshing, and the eldest lady and the three daughters around her quietly looked at the Guogong Mansion, they were all visiting for the first time.

I saw that everywhere the withered corridor painting building, it was really magnificent and rich, that is, the doors, windows and pillars were painted with gold and color.

On both sides of the loft, several antique wooden lanterns hang on them, and the pictures depicted on them look faint.

Listening to the maid in front of her introducing the situation in this mansion without humility or arrogance, the eldest lady only felt that the subordinates of the Guogong Mansion were better than her own, no wonder the Pingning county lord wanted to look at people with his nostrils every time.

Just thinking about it, I came to the main hall, and at this time, a few guests in the huge house had already arrived first.

This huge main hall seems to be opened by several rooms around it, only a few sides of the multi-treasure grid are erected on both sides, and many exquisite and luxurious porcelain antiques are placed in the lattice, which is low-key and luxurious.

There was a commotion in the room, and the female rolls were talking lively.

However, it was the laughter of the hostess of the family, the county lord of Pingning, that was still the most penetrating, and it reached the ears of Minglan and several people.

"County Lord, we're not late, are we?"

The eldest lady stepped forward to greet the county lord of Pingning.

Mo Lan took Rulan and Minglan to salute the elders in front of them one by one, and then went to the place where the girls gathered on the other side.

With the gradual arrival of the female guests, the richly dressed and bejeweled women sat together to eat tea and talk.

And there are more young ladies who are just young, and the female scrolls here are basically from the families of the ministers, high-grade officials, or at least from official families, and many of them are very familiar with each other.

Mo Lan easily chatted with the young ladies, talking about the most fashionable plush shawls and talking about the new rouge in Fuchun Pavilion, Rulan saw it in her eyes and snorted to herself.

The eldest lady will still look here from time to time, and Rulan naturally knows what her mother means.

But she is just different from Mo Lan, she just can't talk to those official ladies, those people think she is naïve, she thinks those people are boring, and naturally all that is left is nodding and greeting.

"It's boring."

"Why haven't you seen Brother Yuanruo come out for a long time?"

Rulan held her chin and glanced out.

Minglan sat next to Rulan, holding a half-eaten mung bean cake in her hand, and the man who was as bright as spring came to mind.

"Probably... Sleep in, right? ”

Rulan burst out laughing.

She still thinks that the six sisters around her are more interesting than those high-ranking ladies.

The two sisters hid in the corner, and while talking, they heard the mother-in-law outside coming to spread that Princess Yong and the county lord of Jiacheng had arrived.

The county lord of Pingning took the lead in going out to greet him, and all the female guests sitting in the room immediately stood up, or went out, or stood in place and waited, Rulan and Minglan who were sitting in the corner were not noticeable, and both of them stretched out their heads and looked out.

Now in Bianjing City, there are all kinds of rumors.

And the rumors that the county lord is close to Princess Yong should seem true now.

I saw that the county lord of Pingning was talking to the beautiful woman beside him very affectionately, and a circle of female rolls surrounded them, Rulan looked at her mother being squeezed at the outermost part of the pile, and pouted again.

And behind him was followed by a young woman hugging each other.

The woman's posture is graceful, her bearing is luxurious, and a pretty melon seed face is slightly powdered.

The county lord of Jiacheng is about fifteen or sixteen years old, and the stars are surrounded by several noble girls around him, and his long-sleeved and dancing appearance is somewhat similar to that of the county lord of Pingning, and Rulan is very unhappy.

"Cut."

"What's the big deal."

"Isn't it just Daddy?"

Minglan hurriedly stuffed the remaining half of the mung bean cake in her hand into her mouth, and the mung bean-flavored hand immediately covered Rulan's mouth, the latter whined twice, and Minglan hurriedly whispered: "Fifth sister, can you stop talking?" ”

Minglan, who was startled by the five sisters, hurriedly looked around, but fortunately, the room was big enough, and the people were noisy, so no one heard it.

Minglan immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Rulan knew that it was indeed very dangerous to talk too much just now.

So, under Minglan resentful eyes, she chose to keep silent.

"My dad is no worse than other dads."

Listening to the words left by the five sisters around her, Minglan nodded in approval.

"Yes."

......

Lu Ze's performance in the front yard was surprisingly consistent with the two girls.

At this moment, he is hiding in the corner and eating red date cakes, and he will inevitably have to toast around after the meeting.

For today's feast, Lu Ze didn't eat much when he went out in the morning.

Not far away, Qi Guogong also seemed to be comfortable dealing with such a noisy scene.

After all, Grandpa Guo grew up in such an environment since he was a child. Dragons give birth to dragons and phoenixes, and sons born to rats make holes.

Thinking of this, Lu Ze couldn't help but think of the little grandfather, this Qi Heng's situation was obviously not quite in line with his identity, at least in terms of long-sleeved dancing, he was definitely not as good as his parents.

Lu Ze had just finished solving this piece of red date cake, and suddenly a small guy appeared in front of him.

"Shanda."

"There is an excellent mountain scenery in the house, can you be willing to move?"
