On this day, it was the day when the Wen family held the "Yunxiang Tea Party".

A few days earlier, the Wen family had already begun to prepare, and the venue was in a courtyard with a pond. The slate floor inside has been washed with water. Around the yard, on the railing of the pond, there are flowers.

In the pond, a few new red and white koi fish have been added.

Clean and tidy, with a touch of elegance.

Mrs. Wen is active and strong, and is keen on all activities that can make the Wen family famous and prosperous.

Song's maiden family is a merchant with a low family background, but rich property. She loves to pursue elegance above all, regardless of whether it is appropriate or not.

Therefore, if you want to say that this grand event that even the capital has heard of, it is really organized by the Wen family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

In the beginning, there were four sessions a year.

Slowly, there were more participants, and there were more than 100 miles of foreign people, and it was a bit too tiring to run four sessions a year, so it was changed to two sessions a year.

The participants are all girls from decent families in Jiangzhou and nearby towns.

You can participate when you are 12 years old, and when you are married, you can come and have fun, but basically you will not participate.

Many of the families involved later became in-laws. This tea party also has the function of socializing and seeing relatives.

After a few years, as Mrs. Wen expected, it not only brought a good reputation to the Wen family, but also benefits!

At the very least, it gave the Wen family's daughter a very high platform. Let Wen Qian become one of the best ladies in Jiangzhou.

There is a long table at the front of the venue, with tables and stools underneath.

Under the eaves on one side, there are severalboards and small stoves, steamers and oil pots. If you need on-site processing, you can bring semi-finished products here to do it.

Early in the morning, the Wen daughters got up. On the small stove in their own yard, they are making snacks for today's competition.

In line with the principle of fairness, Mrs. Wen generally does not see what her granddaughters have done in advance.

This fame is out, and whether you can win an award every time is actually not that important.

When the food was basically ready, the girls began to dress up, clean up, and the girls carried the baskets to the front venue. The host's family must be waiting for the arrival of the guests.

Today, the old lady of the Wen family is dressed ceremoniously, but after all, she is a widowed person, so she can't be too much. Combed with oily hair and hosta. A light brown horse-faced skirt embroidered with dark flowers of the same color.

The bracelet on the old lady's wrist was a rarity, wide and thick, white and waxy. It comes with a small piece of yellow skin, and it naturally forms a peony pattern......

At the beginning, the family was in trouble, and the old lady desperately left behind, one was a set of boxes from her grandfather, and the other was this jade bracelet. I was so hungry that I didn't want to make a move!

Wen Yu peeked at it, and liked it in her heart...... But she knew it was white and liked it!

Grandmother's things, no one can give their turn......

Today, the main branch of the Hu family will come, so the eldest lady Hu is very happy and deliberately dresses up. A blue Hunan silk skirt with a full set of Dongzhu jewelry. Low-key and elegant, very much in line with his origin......

Kang's is also dressed decently today, after all, he has to make his daughter's face. She silently looked at the dazzling Song family......

The Song family was as high-profile as ever, and the light overpowered the old lady and sister-in-law, and they didn't care.

Orange and yellow with shiny fabrics, full of jewelry, really expensive, but really not good-looking. It is a high-class light that can highlight the whole body.

The makeup and expression on the face are also very exaggerated, with a hint of shallowness.

At this moment, she was shouting in a shrill voice: "You guys have a little eyesight today!" Last time, I stepped on Miss Liu's cloak on the ground...... Do you hear that? ”

She pointed to one of the girls, "If you do this again, it's not a fine of money!" You have to press the board in the yard! The Wen family treats you with good food and drink on weekdays, and uses your time...... Give me a sloppy eye again, don't blame me for the punishment! ”

Hu Shi saw her so noisy, and he was slightly angry in his heart, every time something happened, Song Shi had to jump out, which was really annoying.

Old Lady Wen was also upset, frowning and just about to speak...... Wen Qian is here, and today, she is still carrying the basket with her own hands......

Wen Qian, like Song, likes bright colors, especially willing to control colors that are not easy to wear!

Today, for example, she is wearing a lilac shirt and a purple pleated skirt.

Because her skin is white and powdery. Therefore, the dark and light purple matches are particularly stylish.

He has an amethyst hairpin on his head and a few strings of purple crystal stones on his hands and neck.

It seems to have matured a lot all of a sudden, elegant and mysterious, like a big girl......

"Good morning grandmother!" Her voice was also a little deeper, gentle and pleasant.

Old Lady Wen smiled and said, "Qian'er, you're here early today!" ”

"Today, our family is the host, and the granddaughter has to greet the guests on behalf of the elders, of course she can't be left behind!"

Mrs. Wen looked at her and nodded, very satisfied.

Wen Qian stood beside the old lady and looked at her sisters first, of course, first looking for Wen Yu.

Today, Wen Yu is wearing a beige woven begonia shirt, a beige skirt, and only a beaded flower on her head.

It's very simple, but it's not rude.

Standing behind the lively crowd, although there is no trace of publicity, but the energy is ...... It's different when you look at it!

Wen Qian's mentality suddenly became bad, "Fourth sister, you won't make osmanthus cake today, right?" ”

Wen Yu can self-regulate again, but she is still a little girl in the end, and she is a little irritable: such a good day, she will find me trouble as soon as she comes up. What are you doing here?!

So he smiled lightly and said slowly: "A few days ago, didn't the eldest sister say that she wouldn't let me do it?" ”

Then with his eyelids lowered, he took his small basket from Xiang Xing'er's hand, put it on the case, and didn't speak.

"If I ask you, I will answer honestly! What do you do? Wen Qian couldn't hold the fire when she saw the instigation.

"I didn't make osmanthus cake...... Wen Yu replied honestly, and then he was silent again.

Wen Qian pursed her lips, her eyes were cold, on the edge of anger.

Wen Yuan smiled coquettishly beside him: "Oops! Big sister, don't worry! Won't you find out in a while? Why, the eldest sister still wants to give the fourth sister an assessment in advance and open a small stove!? We don't want to do this! She was not happy in her heart, and took the initiative to provoke Wen Qian.

Wen Qian was a little surprised and glanced at Wen Yuan.

Wen Liu'er also smiled and said, "The eldest sister cares about the fourth sister!" Oh?! After all, the fourth sister has never been in the top three once...... Of course, I didn't! Haha......"

The two of them broke up like this, but Wen Qian didn't know how to get better. With a light snort, he went to look at today's arrangement.

After a few glances, I called a mother-in-law, and according to her meaning, I changed the changes.

Mrs. Wen is not against the quarrels between sisters, who knows what will happen in the future? Practice first, save yourself from trouble.

Gazing at the flowers in front of me. Thinking about the people who are coming in a moment......

If Wen Qian's matter is decided, it should be Wen Yuan.

Gentle and beautiful, gentle and dexterous, and practical. The eldest son wrote to her, saying that he had already taken a good look at her......

Xu Ying, 28 years old this year, just died of his wife at the end of last year. The two Jinshi, the five-grade officials, are about to mention the fourth-grade, and the future is really unlimited. What's more, this person is very useful to the eldest son!

Although she went to fill the house, according to her status as a concubine, it was not easy to marry a five-grade official!

And then there's the warmth and the gentle language......

The third son died early, and she was very sympathetic to the warm mother and daughter. It's just that...... She has no father and no brothers, and she has no support, which is not good for her. Preferably...... Choose a solid family, a son who is motivated to study.

Give more dowry, it can be regarded as an explanation for her father!

I went to look at Wen Yu again, and the girl was sitting with her eyes and nose and heart...... It seems that whoever is next to her has nothing to do with her.

I can't help but feel a little hateful in my heart, obviously this girl is the best-looking!

But it's boring, clumsy, don't be strong! I can't afford the family business, and I can't get along with others. Alas, it would be better if someone took a fancy to her appearance and didn't care about her stupidity.

I heard that Concubine Wu was seriously ill in the first two months and was about to die...... Such a position is suitable for her!

Just thinking about it, Mrs. Jiang arrived first with her two daughters.

Jiang Wan'er and Jiang Ning'er are cousins, the elder sister is sixteen and the younger sister is fourteen.

Everyone greeted each other for a while, and the sisters and sons immediately came to Wen Qian's side, these two have always been Wen Qian's followers.

"What did Sister Qian do today?!"

"It's definitely an eye-opener!"

The smile on Wen Qian's face was mischievous and gentle: "Today, let's still watch our Ning'er make a splash!?" ”

Jiang Wan'er smiled: "She! Haha, she brought the tea and eggs that she didn't finish for breakfast! ”

When everyone heard this, they all laughed.

Jiang Ning'er didn't care: "I'll make up the numbers, and then I'll eat and drink!" "She's not too far from baby fat, and her flesh is very cute.

"You, you! Turn around and eat as a little fat pig! Wen Qian also pinched Jiang Ning'er's face.

Wen Yu looked at it and felt funny: It's better to outsiders than her own sister, this is what grandmother thinks is smart, generous, and capable?

Two more families came, and the atmosphere immediately became lively.

Before the greetings were over, someone came again. For a while, the courtyard was full of laughter and excitement.
