Most of the ladies in the city who went to the Yan Mansion to pay New Year's greetings had met Wei Yang. Today, the Zhou Mansion held a banquet, and not many ladies came. Most of them were girls waiting to be married, and there were also a few young wives like Yan Xiaoxia.
After all, it was a post about a flower-viewing banquet posted by Zhou Yuner, so it was naturally a banquet for young people.
Seeing Wei Yang coming, everyone looked at Wei Yang sideways.
Yan Gui’s identity as a daughter-in-law who has not yet married is too shocking, while the girl from the Xie family becomes insignificant instead.
Zhou Yun'er was leading a few girls in the flower room. When she heard that Wei Yang had arrived, she smiled and said, "Miss Xie is here. I'd better go back to accompany her. You guys just play here. I'll ask the maid to invite the sisters when the banquet starts."
The people she accompanied to visit the greenhouse were all friends she grew up with, and they came early because they had a close relationship.
A chuckle came: "Sister Yun'er is too flattering. She is said to be a girl from the Xie family. Who knows where this person came from? Maybe General Yan thought she was pretty..."
These words clearly mocked Wei Yang's shady background, but they happened to be exactly what Zhou Yuner wanted.
The person who spoke was the girl from the Song family, Song Yaoqin.
Song Yaoqin is sixteen years old this year. She has already arranged to marry Zhou Sanlang, Zhou Yuner's third brother, and will be married at the end of the year. She, Yan Xiaoxia and Zhou Yuner are known as the three beauties of Yancheng, and they are all good-looking.
She had dressed up carefully today, with her hair tied up and a magnolia silk flower pinned on her temples, revealing her delicate eyebrows and eyes.
Her sister-in-law followed her mother to the Yan Mansion to pay New Year's greetings and came back, and she kept praising the beauty of the Xie family girl. Even her own mother agreed, which made her suspicious.
In her opinion, the aesthetic taste of Yancheng people is problematic. A girl like Yan Xiaoxia, who has thick eyebrows and big eyes and looks like a bandit, can stand on equal footing with her. If not, Yancheng people are blind.
Wei Yang in the room didn't know that she was being framed. Even if she knew, she wouldn't care.
If she really told them her identity, she would probably scare them to death!
Grandma Zhou led Wei Yang and Yan Xiaoxia to the greenhouse, and Zhou Yuner led Song Yaoqin just came out of the greenhouse. The two met at the door of the greenhouse, exchanged polite words, and then went into the Zhou family's greenhouse.
The glazed greenhouse that Yan Gui made for Wei Yang is exquisite and suitable for resting but not for entertaining guests.
The Zhou family's greenhouse is large, and is also used for entertaining guests. The half-zhang-wide bluestone jade floor is planted with various flowers and trees on both sides. The flowers are small but lush, separated into pieces. The sunlight shines through the glass on the roof and falls on the flowers and trees, forming tiny and fragmented light spots, which are gorgeous and dazzling.
I have to say that the Zhou family greenhouse is really beautiful. It is not so much about the precious species, but the variety of flowers and trees.
"It's so beautiful." Yan Xiaoxia and Weiyang held hands and walked to a tree. They reached out and touched a blooming tender yellow forsythia, whispering softly.
"Sister Yan has come to see it several times and she likes it so much. Why not let brother-in-law build a greenhouse like this for Sister Yan?" With a chuckle, Song Yaoqin walked over.
Everyone knew that Yan Xiaoxia was married to an ordinary family, and her husband's family was considered wealthy, with two shops and a hundred acres of land. This statement was obviously meant to ridicule Yan Xiaoxia.
Yan Xiaoxia blushed and stood up. Her husband was personally chosen by her mother, Madam Feng, because her husband's family was simple, her husband was loyal and polite, and her parents-in-law were kind.
But in the eyes of others, it was a marriage of downgrade and a very bad one.
