She almost had nothing to say to Gu Mianyan Mingqiao, and she whispered: "I'm coming to menstruation, so I won't come back until I'm done." These days...... I really didn't dare to move. ”

Gu Mian is twelve years old this year, she is younger, and she hasn't come yet, but she saw that Yan Mingqiao's chest was more undulating than hers, and she covered her mouth and snickered, "It's really so hard that you don't dare to move?" ”

"It's useless to tell you, you're still a little girl, and I've grown up." Yan Mingqiao breathed a sigh of relief, not wanting to say this again, she said, "Did your brother bring the rabbit back?" Where are the rabbits? ”

Gu Mian said: "I brought it back at the end of the month, and now the rabbit is in his yard, I'll take you to see it." ”

After speaking, she ran back to the house and got a wooden box, and looking at the baby, Yan Mingqiao asked, "What is this?" ”

"The elder brother said that you can't just feed rabbits, you can't just grab a handful of grass and feed it, you have to eat turnips and cabbage. This is the radish I bought, and the rabbit is cute and eats! ”

Yan Mingqiao had thought about this in advance, the rabbit was raised in the Taifu Mansion, she should prepare the rations for the rabbit, if the rabbit finds another rabbit in the future, then she has to prepare a bride price, dowry or something.

In fact, it is more cabbage radish.

"Yes, I brought the rabbit to eat cabbage, but is it convenient for me to go to your brother's yard?"

Gu Mian said: "What's inconvenient about this, he doesn't come back to live often, and there are only two doormen in the yard." Besides, let's look at the rabbits, kept outside. ”

What can be inappropriate about this, and not go inside to see it.

The two took the cabbage to feed the rabbit, which was a little bigger than when Yan Mingqiao caught it, and it looked white and chubby. The cage is also clean, the wooden cage is more than enough for five rabbits, and a cabbage leaf is stretched in, and it jumps over, and the two front feet will be held and eaten, and it can eat for a long time.

The three-petal mouth is still moving.

After feeding the rabbits, the two walked back, Yan Mingqiao and Gu Mian said that they wanted to hold a banquet, she felt that she should meet people, not like the last time in Putuo Mountain, when she met people, she felt familiar, but she couldn't call her name.

But where the banquet will be held and what kind of banquet she will hold yet, she has not yet figured it out.

"It's spring, and it's the time to enjoy the flowers. In March, the peach blossoms in Shengjing are all in bloom, and you can go to see the peach blossoms. "That's all Gu Mian can think of, go to peach blossoms in spring, lotus flowers in summer, chrysanthemums in autumn, and plum blossoms in winter.

There are also people who love a kind of flower, such as peonies and orchids, let the flower room raise them, all kinds of them, and let everyone appreciate them, and Gu Mian will also be greedy to take a look.

But these are all money-burning things, and Gu Mian himself doesn't touch them.

Yan Mingqiao also has some money, but he doesn't have this hobby, the garden is taken care of by the descendants of the Yan Guo Mansion, although it is also very good-looking, but it is far from the point where people can appreciate it together.

Yan Mingqiao said: "That's good, let's go enjoy the peach blossoms." I remember that there is a peach garden in Yunlu Villa, so I'll make an appointment first. At that time, you can pick flowers and make wine together and make peach blossom cakes to eat. There is also tea, and today's flower tea is also delicious, choose all kinds of dried flowers, and mix what you want to drink. ”

It's more fun than just looking at the flowers.

With flower tea, she is still good at it, and by the way, let more people know about flower tea.

You can also prepare some mountain spring water, like Zhao Yun'an, they are particular about making tea, and they feel that the mountain spring water is better to brew.

Yan Mingqiao said to Gu Mian: "Go back and I'll write a post, and you can help me see which one is left behind." ”

There are many families in Shengjing City, and the family is poor, but there are not so many people of the same age as her, except for the county lord of Jiayuan and Zhao Yun'an, as well as the little lady of the Huang family, the Xia family, and the Lin family.

Chapter 93: Fang Fei Banquet

The banquet was scheduled for March 12, and Yan Mingqiao still had a few days to prepare.

With Gu Mian's help, prepare tea, dried fruits, dried flowers, and fragrant dew and flower dew, which are kept for tea bags.

Yan Mingqiao also prepared gifts for everyone, including tea bags made by herself, and another beaded flower in the style of the palace, which was given to her by her aunt, who gave her a box at that time, There are more than 20 sticks, she can't wear them, so she just keeps them for gifts.

Gu Mian felt that these were almost the same, she knew that Yan Mingqiao was in the tea bag business, so that more people could know that the tea bags were delicious, which could be described as killing multiple birds with one stone.

Shen knew that Yan Mingqiao was going to hold a banquet, and specially gave five hundred taels of silver, and it would definitely cost them money to eat, drink and have fun at that time, Shen always felt that her daughter could make money because of her daughter's, and she gave it because she loved her daughter.

It's all silver, but it's all different.

Yan Mingqiao also happily accepted it, her mother could ask for it, and her mother would give her silver tweed on weekdays.

Here I put the name of the person invited right, and then let the maid send the post out, see if the person is free, and wait for the banquet on the twelfth.

In addition to the two groups of Jiayuan County Lord and Lin Yuwan, there are also a few little ladies, adding up to a total of eleven people, and the others who are really not familiar or have too far to go, Yan Mingqiao did not post.

After all, the people who came over were all famous and noble girls, and it was always difficult to invite the daughters of small families to come over.

Yan Mingqiao did this for another reason, the guard said that there were no insects and snakes in this season, in this case, eighty percent of the snake was made by Yan Mingze himself.

Between Lin Yuwan, Huang Zhixin, and Xia Ziyue, what is important to Yan Mingze.

Could it be a family affair?

The post is the tenth day of the first month, Huang Zhixin is very happy to receive the invitation, she is worried that she has no chance to talk to Yan Wu, who wants Yan Wu to come over after the post, it is simply stepping on the iron shoes and finding nowhere to go. She was busy letting the maid prepare the clothes and jewelry for the banquet, and felt that she was two points closer to Yan Sangongzi.

In the afternoon, Lin Yuwan came over and asked Huang Zhixin, "Have you received the post?" ”

Huang Zhixin nodded vigorously, "The post was sent in the morning, saying that I was going to Yunlu Garden to enjoy the peach blossoms, I don't know who else is, Sister Lin, have you received the post?" ”

Lin Yuwan also nodded, "But I think, this Yan Wu probably held this banquet because of you, otherwise why didn't you see her bow down before?" It's still Yunlu Garden, and it costs a lot of money to go to that place. ”

Lin Yuwan looked very happy for Huang Zhixin, "My sister can be regarded as getting what she wants this time!" ”

Yunlu Garden is the place where the ladies of the family love to hold banquets, Lin Yuwan has been to it with her mother once, the scenery there is very good, it covers an area of three hectares, it is divided into several gardens, it is an extremely good garden courtyard.

Once upon a time, it was the palace of the former dynasty, but then I don't know who it fell into, and I heard that it was a super wealthy merchant, and then the Yunlu Palace was turned into a garden for guests to play, rather than a private residence.

This also means that when idlers can't get in, they have to be dignitaries.

Like the Lin family and the Huang family, it is naturally impossible to spend a lot of money to go here for a visit and take a look, this person will spend a lot of silver to marry, and if you want more than a dozen people to hold a banquet in it, and no one else is allowed to disturb it, it is equivalent to wrapping up the entire garden, and the silver is not a small amount.

Lin Yuwan is clear about these doors, although she hasn't been to them a few times, she knows them well.

Like the vegetarian food of the Vientiane Temple, the banquet of the Yunlu Villa, the gardens of each family, the chic favorites, and the well-dressed and servant ladies of the family like to go, she knows where she goes.

Sometimes, Lin Yuwan feels that high-ranking officials are useless, and those who are officials must be honest and do things for the people, but what is in her own hands.

How can any silver come from a real place?

Don't look at Yan Guogong's lack of official position now, but Yan Guogong's family is rich, and he spends a lot of money.

On who is rich and who is expensive, you can tell at a glance.

Looking at Yan Mingqiao's clothes again, Lin Yuwan dared to say that all her jewelry was not as expensive as Yan Mingqiao's pair of bracelets.

Huang Zhixin was a little shy, "It should be...... Probably not, where would Yan Wu specially invite me to go. ”

Of course Lin Yuwan knew that it wouldn't.

This marriage event has always been decided by the parents, and the media is marrying, how can it be that Yan Mingqiao is a little lady.

If it is really intentional, I am afraid that the person who held the banquet would be the Duchess of Yanguo, and she must have said it to Mrs. Huang.

Those words were just for Huang Zhixin, she would definitely go to Yan Mingqiao to inquire about the news of Yan Sangongzi. Who's a good little lady would be like this, ask about men, how shameless.

In this way, it is impossible for this Huang Zhixin to marry Yan Mingze.

Lin Yuwan has learned how powerful Yan Mingqiao is, and the maid called Qinghui is not a good thing, and she didn't come back after sending it to Zhuangzi, and she was blind for ten taels of silver.

In her opinion, Yan Mingqiao's personality is top-notch and strong, which is not easy to get along with.

"Don't worry, since I invited you, I definitely want to be good friends with you, you dress up well, and just talk to Fifth Sister Yan when the time comes."

Huang Zhixin was persuaded by Lin Yuwan like this, her heart fluttered and beat hard, and with Lin Yuwan's help, she chose clothes and jewelry, and prepared to go to the banquet with peace of mind.

And Lin Yuwan also found her best jewelry, and she couldn't see it roughly, but if she looked closely, it definitely looked better than Huang Zhixin's dress.

On the eleventh day, Yan Mingqiao received replies from various families, except for a little lady who was unwell and could not come, the rest of the people could come to the banquet.

Early in the morning of the banquet, Yan Mingqiao began to freshen up, she changed into a new jade-colored dress, and the jewelry was not too public, a jade step swayed, two crimson velvet flowers, and the earrings were flowers made of rice grains and large pearls.

Because she was white and her face was clean, Yan Mingqiao lit a layer of rose-scented lipstick, dressed up like this, looked in the mirror, and went to the main courtyard to let Shen take a look at it, "Mother, do you see me doing this?" ”

This is the first time she has hosted a banquet by herself, and she is always afraid that something will not be right.

Shen looked at his daughter from top to bottom, and then took off a bracelet from her wrist and put it on her wrist. Yan Mingqiao's wrist is thin, and it is a little big to wear it like this, but it is taking advantage of the fact that people are like jade and their wrists are like snow.

"Isn't there still the Jiayuan County Lord and his party? You are the master, and it is not good to dress too plainly. Shen looked at his slim daughter and nodded with satisfaction, "Go quickly, don't be late." ”

This took both silver and bracelets, Yan Mingqiao was happy in her heart, she saluted, "That daughter has retired." ”

The steps on her head swayed slightly, looking very demure and soft, and her eyes were bright and bright, not dull at all, this posture was cultivated since childhood, Shen was very pleased, "Hmm." ”

Sitting in the carriage, Yan Mingqiao went directly to Yunlu Villa, she came early, but the steward of the Villa was already waiting, "Wu Niangzi, there is no one else in the Villa except for the maid, if there is anything to order." The peach blossoms in Fangfei Courtyard are blooming just right, the little lady is in a good season, and there are also flower scenes in other yards, and the little lady can enjoy it. ”

The stewards have a very good attitude, and who has a bad attitude towards those who give money.

Yan Mingqiao nodded, at noon they planned to have dinner in Yunlu Garden, the dishes were ordered from Zuixiang Building, and they were set yesterday.

"Okay, then I'll go shopping first. Lin Xianglin Zao, a few of you are waiting for the guests to come, and lead them to Fangfei Courtyard. "Yan Mingqiao brought all the buckwheat anxuan maids today, Lin Xiang and the others are also familiar with these things, and they will not cower.

She first took the maid to decorate the Fangfei Courtyard, and not long after the arrangement, Gu Mian came.

Gu Mian wowed several times in a row, "Ming Qiao, it's too beautiful here!" It's the same as a painting! ”

Gu Mian wanted to come over to help, but seeing that Yan Mingqiao's maids were used for eight each, he sat down to enjoy the scenery and eat snacks with peace of mind.

After another quarter of an hour, the people invited by Yan Mingqiao came over one after another, the county lord of Jiayuan and Zhao Yun'an came together, Huang Zhixin and the three of them together, Huang Zhixin stood next to Lin Yuwan before getting into the carriage, and went to Xia Ziyue after getting off the carriage.

Huang Zhixin just felt that Lin Yuwan was dressed up too well today, and she also put on makeup, obviously she helped pick out the clothes, and she also knew how important it was to her today, and she was still like this.

But Lin Yuwan still pretended not to know, and praised her for her beautiful clothes when she came, Huang Zhixin was so aggrieved that she panicked, and only relieved herself here, not for anything else, for this scenery.

Some people say that the peach blossoms behind Putuo Mountain are beautiful, and they are indeed extremely beautiful, but they are not as good as half of them here.

The peach trees are all pruned, and the posture is stretched, like a dancing woman, and the peach forest has five or six acres of land, and a peach tree is next to a peach tree. The trees and the ground are full of pink petals, and they are all fragrant and beautiful. At a glance, there is no end in sight.

If you stretch out your hand, there will be petals fluttering and falling on the palm of your hand, and you can smell the faint fragrance of flowers.

There is the sound of elegant silk and bamboo orchestra in the distance, it is the musician specially invited by Yan Mingqiao, the sky is full of clouds, there is flowing water not far away, I hear the murmuring of the water, there are petals flowing down the stream, and finally drifting and turning in the pool.

Yan Mingqiao explained: "You can make meandering water here, but our girl's family doesn't drink." ”

Leaning against the promenade and pavilion, there is a peach tree that is said to be hundreds of years old, and the trunk is so thick that no one can hold it.

The canopy of the tree is also large, and standing under the tree is like a rain of petals in the sky.

There are all kinds of dim sum in the pavilion, the taste is sweet and rich, and there are mountain spring water and a lot of white porcelain jars on the stone table next to the stream, which can be made and drunk in a while.

Yan Mingqiao is considered to be the main family, first spoke and received them one by one, and then after waiting for everyone, he said to everyone: "Everyone admires the face, I am overjoyed, I specially prepared tea and snacks, if there is any inconsiderate hospitality, I also hope for Haihan." ”

Gu Mian and Yan Mingqiao had long been familiar with each other, and they didn't need her to entertain them too much, after saying a few words, they signaled that they could play by themselves and asked her to hurry up and greet others, and Yan Mingqiao walked towards Lin Yuwan and the others.

Huang Zhixin and the three of them are not familiar with the county lord of Jiayuan, and when they come here, the three of them can talk, so they can only stay together.

Seeing Yan Mingqiao coming, Huang Zhixin pulled out a smile, "Sister Mingqiao." ”

"I've seen three sisters, who are in Shengjing, but I haven't spoken much, and I don't like to go out and walk around." Yan Mingqiao smiled, "The people in this world are like a family, and we should come and go often in the future." ”
