Not to mention how Chang Zhenzhen's thoughts were in the Chang'an Hou Mansion, but it was said that Liu Xinning looked at the people who were slowly dispersed, either flattering or disdainful, and sat alone in the pavilion indifferently.

"Let's go and investigate, why haven't Sister Lou and Cousin Ye come at this hour? If they hadn't said they were coming to this banquet, I wouldn't have joined in the excitement today. Liu Xinning muttered to Chun Nuan in a low voice.

Now it's June, and the weather is getting hotter and hotter. Especially today, I was very depressed in the morning.

The eldest princess said that girls don't use too much ice, which makes her even more unhappy.

Fortunately, when I came out to participate in the banquet, I could have Bingjian. But she hadn't enjoyed it for long before she was kicked out of the banquet hall by the eldest princess.

"Yes."

Chun Nuan called a few little maids over and asked them to excuse themselves to get things and go out to find out the news.

Liu Xinning looked boredly at the koi swimming around the lake, waiting for the news.

"Miss Lou is serving Mrs. Yongwei. On the Ye County Lord's side, it was Mrs. He of the Jiang family who came to visit. ”

After a long while, Chun Nuan stepped forward to pray.

"None of them can come?".

Liu Xinning shook the fan.

None of them came, so what was the point of her staying?

"Yes. Both young ladies have asked you to say sorry. Say that it happened suddenly, and they will come to explain it to you as soon as they are free. ”

"That'...... Let's go, too. Liu Xinning stood up, blocked the blazing sunlight with a fan, and walked directly to the weeping flower gate.

"Yes." Chun Nuan and the others hurriedly followed.

Liu Xinning first went to the main hall of the banquet hall to say goodbye, and Princess Shun naturally tried her best to keep her.

King Shun was the youngest brother of Emperor Qingping, so he escaped all kinds of battles for succession.

However, he is smart, and he is more able to observe words and feelings, and figure out the emperor's heart, so he naturally knows the status of the eldest princess of Changle.

And he took a good wife, and obeyed him in all things. Therefore, Princess Shun also tried her best to please Princess Changle and Liu Xinning.

At this moment, Princess Shun saw that Liu Xinning said that she was unwell and wanted to leave, so she naturally understood that it was an excuse.

However, Liu Xinning insisted on going back, so she could only give up.

Everyone looked at Liu Xinning, who had a sad and sad expression, and looked at each other as if they knew each other.

Liu Xinning wanted to go home, and the eldest princess also wanted to follow, but she was persuaded by Liu Xinning.

Especially Princess Shun's earnest expression made the eldest princess embarrassed to leave directly.

After all, as the eldest princess of Changle, if she left like this, there would be a lot of gossip at the banquet in the Shun Palace.

And Liu Xinning, who returned to the mansion, took advantage of the absence of the eldest princess and asked her subordinates to quickly add a lot of ice to the ice jian.

Feel the chill of the air, eat chilled melons and fruits, and drink a heart-deep iced drink.

Liu Xinning couldn't help but sigh with satisfaction, "This is the right way to open in the hot summer." ”

The maid who was waiting in the main room, looking at Liu Xinning who was so behaving like this, couldn't help but secretly cover her mouth and laugh when she heard her laughter.

However, Liu Xinning's good mood was soon broken by the visiting Ye Lanqing.

"Are you sure that's what she said? She's okay with her head, right? After listening to Ye Lanqing's complaints, Liu Xinning couldn't help but widen her eyes.

"Can I still joke with you about this kind of thing?" Ye Lanqing replied with a wry smile.

"Does Sister Lou know about this?"

"That's her foreign home, and I can't tell her. However, I was really bored in my heart, so I came to talk to you. Sometimes, you're really bigger than an adult. ”

Ye Lanqing really thinks so.

She felt that Liu Xinning sometimes spoke and acted as innocently as a child.

But sometimes I think about things, and I am as mature and steady as an adult.

Of course Ye Lanqing didn't know, it was because Liu Xinning had more than 30 years of experience in her previous life.

And Liu Xinning in this life, although she knows a lot of secular rules, she is used to being free in her previous life, and sometimes she can't change it for a while.

So there will be times when her behavior is contradictory.

"This, really...... It's not that the ancients ...... Well, do people who follow the ancient rites know the rules best? How could she say such a thing as asking her daughter-in-law, who had not passed through the door, to prepare a dowry for her daughter? ”

Liu Xinning endured and endured, but couldn't help but complain.

Although Ye Lanqing is only seventeen this year, which is not old, Jiang Dufan is twenty-three years old, and his age is really not young.

Therefore, Jiang Dufan and Ye Lanqing's family affairs are in full swing.

Three books and six ceremonies, two books and five ceremonies have been completed, just waiting for August 18, Jiang Dufan came to welcome the bride with a welcome book.

Therefore, Ye Lan is the daughter-in-law of the Jiang family.

However, after Mrs. He proposed this idea, Ye Lanqing was still confused.

"You promised?" Liu Xinning then asked.

"No......" Ye Lanqing smiled bitterly again, "But I didn't refuse ...... either"

How to refuse?

After all, she is the future mother-in-law, and she is the person who will often get along with each other in the inner courtyard in the future.

"She dares to say, why don't you dare to refuse?"

She didn't say it explicitly, just a tactful hint. At one time, he said that the strength of the entire Jiang family was used to manage the marriage for us, and he couldn't even take care of the second son of Jiang's family; At one time, he said that fortunately, the marriage of the Jiang family's sister had been decided, and she was able to marry Gaomen, but it was a pity that the Jiang family was downcast and did not have a dowry that could raise her face; At one time, he said that fortunately, the eldest daughter-in-law was capable, and the dowry of the Jiang family's sister did not have to be too difficult...... Anyway, in and out of those words, he just wanted me to prepare a dowry for the Jiang family's sister and raise my face. ”

Ye Lanqing sighed helplessly and explained the scene in detail.

"Outright refusal. said that the dowry should be prepared by the parents, but I didn't hear that the sister-in-law had to give the sister-in-law a dowry. ”

Liu Xinning said decisively.

In today's Daqing Dynasty, when both parents are present, it is not the turn of a new sister-in-law who has not yet passed the door to prepare a dowry for her sister-in-law.

If it's makeup, then it's okay, it's the intention of being a sister-in-law. Where can I directly ask my new sister-in-law to pay for something?

"But that's Brother Jiang's mother." Ye Lanqing hesitated, "Brother Jiang treats me very well. I care about his face, so I ......"

When Liu Xinning heard this, she was helpless.

Jiang Dufan is a person, his character is still good, and he is also very attentive to Ye Lanqing.

Since the two families decided to be married, Jiang Dufan went to Feng'an Princess's Mansion from time to time to hang around.

Either give freshly picked melons and fruits, or freshly populate on the street. Or beautiful fabrics, beautiful jewelry, and so on.

Not to mention, Jiang Dufan gave full play to the characteristics of a literati and made the love writing a flower.

Once, Ye Lanqing didn't put the love letter well, and was taken out by Lou Xinyue, who used to play.

As a result, the shy Lou Xinyue looked at it twice and was so frightened that she hurriedly threw it back, but floated in front of Liu Xinning.

Liu Xinning, who didn't know why, picked it up and looked at it a few times, and saw the ambiguous feelings between the lines.

Therefore, Jiang Dufan really loves Ye Lanqing.

However, feelings are real feelings, and the calculation may also be a real calculation.
