The happy eldest princess Feng'an also remembered that Liu Xinning didn't like to go out in the past, but she was afraid that she didn't know much about people, so she asked Ye Lanqing to introduce her.
"This is the princess of Suikangjun." Ye Lanqing was the first to introduce the lady who was sitting next to her mother.
This princess of the county, if you talk about it, can be regarded as Liu Xinning's distant aunt, so Liu Xinning should salute her.
But before she could lean down, she was held up by Princess Suikangjun's hand.
"Zhaoyang didn't go out much in the past. Now that I've seen it, I really look like I've grown up a lot. Princess Suikangjun said kindly.
Liu Xinning was not familiar with the other party, and when she heard this, she just lowered her head and smiled, pretending to be shy.
It is in stark contrast to the intimacy of Princess Feng'an.
The eldest princess of Feng'an, who was at the top, was even happier, and the two ladies at the bottom looked at each other quietly.
"This is Mrs. Li, the head of the Ministry of Officials, Xin Shangshu." Ye Lanqing introduced shyly.
Oh, this is Xin Lishi's mother? If you know it earlier, you will not be exempt from courtesy. Liu Xinning secretly slandered.
"This is Mrs. Mu, Mrs. Li's mother's family."
Ye Lanqing's introduction is completed one by one.
Liu Xinning listened to this introduction and slowly thought about the relationship between them, but the doubt was solved.
The Daqing Dynasty is relatively open, and the marriage between men and women is moderately enlightened.
Especially parents who love their children, they will try to make sure that the two of them meet each other and make sure that both of them agree to this family matter, so as not to become a resentful couple in the future.
Princess Feng'an loves her daughter, so she let her daughter meet people first. It is normal to wait for her daughter to agree and then arrange to see each other.
Princess Suikangjun's status is noble, I'm afraid she is the matchmaker of the Ye Xin family, right?
Mrs. Li represents the Xin Mansion, and Mrs. Mu Da naturally represents Mrs. Li's maiden family.
Now, Xin Lishi's mother has seen Ye Lanqing, presumably the next step is to find an opportunity to let Ye Lanqing and Xin Lishi meet alone?
When Ye Lanqing was dying, he recalled the past to Lou Xinyue, saying that on the day they saw each other in the seventeenth year of Qingping, they made a covenant that the white prime minister would not be separated.
Is it today?
But that's not right.
First of all, Ye Lanqing said that the day they saw each other was November 20, and today is only the eighth day of the first month.
Because Ye Lanqing kept muttering to Lou Xinyue, it would be good if there was no love on the twentieth.
It's because she has said it too many times, so Lou Xinyue also remembers that day, and she will say on that day every year that it would be good if she could stop Ye Lanqing from falling in love with Xin immediately.
Secondly, looking at each other normally, it is generally two families who meet, and at most a matchmaker is added, where will so many people be brought in?
Liu Xinning's gaze fell from Mrs. Muda, then to Lou Xinyue, and then to herself.
There are a lot of outsiders.
For a while, everyone finished greetings.
Because of the eldest princess, they came one step earlier than Liu Xinning, and they didn't have time to talk properly.
So, I sent the three girls to the backyard to enjoy the plum blossoms, and by the way, folded a few fresh plum blossoms.
Liu Xinning, Ye Lanqing and Lou Xinyue walked out of the wing door together and walked to the back garden.
"Cousin, I read the book that day and read a story that I didn't understand, so I wanted to ask your opinion."
On the way to the back garden, because Liu Xinning was weak, everyone walked very slowly.
"What's the story?" Ye Lanqing asked curiously.
It is a man who loves her wife so much, but loves her so much that he does not give her any freedom, and does not even allow her to see anyone but him. You say, if the wife had known that her husband was like that, would she have married him? ”
Liu Xinning looked curious, and told the story of Ye Lanqing in the book, deleted and reduced.
"This, too, is it necessary to divide people, right? If that person is willing not to see outsiders, he may be willing to do so; If that person wants his relatives and friends, he will not want to. ”
After Ye Lanqing listened to the story Liu Xinning said, she did not perfunctory Liu Xinning just because it was a book. Instead, after thinking about it carefully, he summed it up and said.
"What about you, cousin? Would you rather be the only one in your life, or would you like to be free in your life? ”
Liu Xinning looked like a curious baby, but she stared at Ye Lanqing's expression carefully, not missing a single bit.
"Does that need to be said? Nature is free in life. I have parents, brothers, relatives and friends, how can I want to marry someone who can only see him? Ye Lanqing replied with a smile without hesitation.
"Yes. Don't look at your cousin Ye's gentle and demure face, in fact, she is a lively character. She has a lot more friends than I do. Lou Xinyue said jealously on the side.
"Then you're my best friend." Ye Lanqing's blurted out words that made Lou Xinyue smile.
Listening to the laughter of Ye Lanqing and Lou Xinyue, Liu Xinning made up her mind.
Ye Lanqing has the grace of saving the original owner, and she is also a friend of her life-saving benefactor Lou Xinyue, so she naturally wants to help Ye Lanqing escape from the fire pit.
However, she was not a reckless person.
Although I had seen that description in the book, now that she has come, the direction in the book has changed a part.
What about the minds of the people in the book?
Therefore, she still wants to confirm the mind of the person being helped.
During the banquet, she found that Ye Lanqing looked at Xin Li, so she wanted to find an opportunity to ask.
However, then something happened to her herself, and she thought that she would settle down before twenty, so she put it down for the time being.
As a result, this looks like the date is earlier. Fortunately, she confirmed Ye Lanqing's idea.
Now that Ye Lanqing's mind has been determined, she has to be a bad guy who beats mandarin ducks and stops the two from falling in love.
The group went to the back garden.
Because it was too cold, I took a rough look at the scenery, picked a few fresh plum blossoms, and went back to the wing.
"You're back early." Princess Feng'an looked at them who came back and said with a smile.
"It's so cold outside." Ye Lanqing also replied with a smile.
"Not really. As the saying goes, snow doesn't get cold. Now is the time for snow to melt, isn't it cold? ”
Princess Suikangjun echoed with a smile.
Everyone chatted a few more words, and Mrs. Li looked at Ye Lanqing carefully again, and then excused herself to leave.
"Qing'er, you can send Mrs. Li back on behalf of your mother." The eldest princess of Feng'an did not stay any longer, but smiled and asked Ye Lanqing to give it away.
Ye Lanqing nodded shyly.
Liu Xinning quickly analyzed the situation in front of her.
This is, supporting Ye Lanqing alone to meet with Xin Lishi?
When we met, we made up our minds. After the relationship, the marriage is decided.
Nowadays, there are few people who know, at best, it doesn't get along. If the marriage is destroyed after it is decided, it will hurt the dignity of the two families.
Thinking of this, Liu Xinningqing quickly turned her brain.
"Cousin, let's go with you. It occurred to me that my grandmother had not dared to go to the Imperial Garden for the past two days because of the snow and cold. The plum blossoms in the back garden of this Daxiang Temple are so full, and after sending Mrs. Li, let's pick some together and send them to my grandmother, she will definitely be happy. ”
Liu Xinning said happily like a child.
However, as soon as she said this, everyone's thoughts were different.
