Fourth Miss He refused and glared at Qu Moying and wanted to say something, but she saw Liu Jingyu had already gently ordered the maid to come over. Seeing her act like this, Fourth Miss He left angrily.
"Miss Qu, Miss He is not like this usually. I don't know what happened today. She became particularly angry when she saw you." Liu Jingyu sat down and apologized to Qu Moying softly.
"Is it because of the matter of Mr. He San?" After hearing her say this, someone immediately remembered what happened before. Wasn't that matter about the Qu Mansion and the He Mansion
"Is it really Miss Qu who is negotiating a marriage with Mr. He San?" An unknown lady asked again.
"Isn't it Miss Qu?" someone else asked.
Let’s end the conversation here.
Qu Moying raised his eyes and looked at Liu Jingyu calmly, "Princess, the right and wrong are in the past. Grandmother said that we should just regard it as a disaster and not blame anyone."
These words were said calmly, completely different from the angry look on Fourth Miss He's face before.
Speaking of which, this was really an unjustified disaster. Although Mr. He San and the Qu family had discussed marriage, it was not formal after all, so it didn't really count. This kind of dating thing would be something that every young lady would do before getting engaged, but no one has ever caused such a thing.
As for the incident of the He family coming to the door later, it seemed more like this Third Master He went crazy and bit people, deliberately ruining the reputation of the young lady of the Qu family. Any family that gets involved in such a thing would feel unlucky.
Thinking about the eldest daughter of the Qu family, who is now practicing in the mansion with her hair uncut, and who knows whether she will practice for a lifetime or for how long, the matter of the Qiqiao Festival is certainly an important factor, but what about the previous incident with Mr. He San? Wasn't it also a triggering factor? Thinking about it this way, he immediately felt that Qu Xuexin had suffered great injustice.
How unlucky the Qu family is!
So, when Miss He Si came back and wanted to mock Qu Moying again, she found that no one responded to her words.
Even if she had a lot to say, she couldn't continue and could only sulk in frustration.
Liu Jingyu didn't expect that her light provocation would be taken advantage of by Ju Moying again. Her face froze, but she always reacted quickly. She only froze for a moment after Qu Moying finished speaking, and then she stopped paying attention to Qu Moying and started talking to Princess Xiangrong, as if she didn't care about what happened just now at all.
You appear more generous and decent in front of more people.
"Princess Xiangrong, why hasn't Princess Hanyu come yet? It's already this late!" Liu Jingyu asked.
Princess Hanyu is the daughter of Princess Mingzhu. She used to get along well with them and is in the same circle as them.
"She was not feeling well and didn't come today." Princess Xiangrong smiled and replied.
"Are you sick? Is it serious?" Liu Jingyu asked with concern.
"It's nothing. He said he was fine before, but today he said he was sick again. He told us not to take it seriously and said he would apologize to us in a few days." Princess Xiangrong said.
"Then let's go and see her later. We can't wait until she gets better before going!" Liu Jingyu suggested tactfully.
Princess Xiangrong thought about it and nodded: "Then... after the party is over, let's go over and take a look. If everything is fine, we'll wait for her to apologize next time."
"Okay, shall we stay here today?" After Liu Jingyu agreed, he looked at the environment of the flower hall and asked with a smile.
“Naturally it’s not here
There is nothing prepared here." Princess Xiangrong said, standing up and smiling to everyone, "Almost everyone has arrived. Come with me. We will go to the waterside today. It is cool and you can enjoy the scenery. If you want to paint, there are painting tools prepared there."
"Is it your favorite waterside pavilion?" Liu Jingyu also stood up and asked with a smile.
"Yes, it's that place. I mentioned it to you before." Princess Xiangrong nodded.
"That one is really nice." Liu Jingyu said happily, "Although the scenery in the princess's mansion is good, this one is the most beautiful and most suitable."
"I thought about it based on what you said and that place is the best." Princess Xiangrong walked in front. Liu Jingyu chatted and laughed with her, followed her, and walked out together.
The young ladies stood up one after another and walked out together. Today's gathering was mainly for entertainment, and without the restraint of elders, everyone relaxed. After the team dispersed, they walked forward in twos and threes. Qu Moying was still at the end. She didn't know anyone here, so it was wise for her to walk slowly.
But he didn't expect that the person walking not far ahead was Yan Yujiao. And judging from Yan Yujiao's appearance, she actually had something to say to him, and looked back at him from time to time. This appearance was too different from her previous appearance, and Qu Moying couldn't help but notice her.
"Miss, please be careful of her." Yu Dong also noticed Yan Yujiao's abnormality and reminded Qu Moying in a low voice.
"It's okay!" Qu Moying shook his head, "She probably doesn't intend to embarrass me."
She saw it clearly just now. If it were in the past, this Miss Yan Yujiao would have pounced on Liu Jingyu when Liu Jingyu was speaking. But just now, she didn't say a word. It was quite interesting.
It seems that Miss Yan is not completely ignorant.
"Then why does she look at you from time to time?" Yu Dong asked puzzled. This Miss Yan was too conspicuous. She was in front of them, and it was impossible not to notice her by looking at them like that.
"Don't worry about her, let's just walk slowly." Qu Moying shook his head and looked up to the front. Princess Xiangrong and Liu Jingyu, who were walking in the front, had disappeared now. The group of people walking in twos and threes in front was very long.
From afar, we can see pavilions and terraces. They must be built along the lake in the princess's mansion.
The willows and lotus pond are at their most beautiful at this time.
Sure enough, along the way, Yan Yujiao just kept looking at Qu Moying's actions which made people feel weird, but she didn't take any other actions, and she didn't look like she was looking for trouble.
The group finally arrived at the waterside pavilion.
The pavilions and towers leaning against the lake are particularly beautiful, and the flowers and vines on the lake surface are in full bloom.
The water pavilion has two floors, the upper one and the upper one. Some people like to stay close to the pond and reach out from the window on the other side to the water surface directly. The ripples on the clear water are a beautiful sight.
From the second floor, you can see far into the distance. Although it is far from the water, you can see more scenery and enjoy it from a better angle.
On the other side of the water pavilion, there is a rockery. The rockery is very high with gurgling water on it. The water flows down from the top of the mountain, making a quiet and elegant sound of flowing water. There are also tall banana trees planted there. The water slides down from the banana leaves, adding a lot of meaning.
Qu Moying came last and looked at the position below.
The seat was basically full, so he went upstairs with two maids.
There were very few people on the second floor, only two young ladies. When they saw Qu Moying coming, they just looked up at her and continued chatting with her. They had no intention of talking to Qu Moying intimately.
Qu Moying chose a windowsill to sit down and found that this windowsill was a little different from the windowsill in his own house. It could be pulled open directly, and there was a platform outside. He could walk from the opened windowsill to the platform to enjoy the scenery, so that he could see more clearly.
The platform outside the windowsill is not small, so there is no danger in going outside to enjoy the view. Moreover, there is a small circle of fence on the outermost side of the platform. It is very low, only reaching the ankles, and only slightly higher than the platform. Although such a fence is a bit low, it is conducive to an open view.
Very nice place.
In comparison, the floor below is much more crowded than this one, and there is not such a good view. However, Princess Xiangrong and Liu Jingyu are both there, so it is not convenient for those young ladies to go upstairs. The two of them now have to come up as there is no more room downstairs.
The window sill on Qu Moying's side is close to the side. The sound of flowing water outside is clear and pleasant, and there are no noisy voices. It is a very good quiet place.
A maid came up and saw the three people upstairs. She smiled and said, "I was sent here by Princess Xiangrong. I would like to ask the three young ladies if they need painting tools or musical instruments or something like that."
"No need, we have our own." The two young ladies over there waved their hands and motioned the maids following them to come forward. One maid was holding a drawing board and some painting supplies in her hands, and it looked like they were mainly engaged in painting. The other young lady's maid came forward and was holding something similar. Seeing how familiar they looked, they must have had an agreement on this.
"What does Fourth Miss Qu need?" The maid in the princess's mansion looked at Qu Moying.
Qu Moying shook his head and pointed at the musical instruments in Yu Dong's arms and said, "Thank you, Princess. I brought the musical instruments. If you need anything else, I will certainly trouble you."
"Okay, then I'll go down first." The maid went down with a smile.
After a while, a few more maids came up and placed cakes, fruits and other things in front of the young ladies. The two girls over there didn't pay any attention to Qu Moying at all.
"Sister, can you do me a favor and lift this chair down?" A maid came up and seemed to want to take a chair down, but she didn't have enough strength. Seeing Yu Dong approaching, she walked over and whispered to Yu Dong anxiously.
"I... I can't leave for the moment." Yu Dong looked at Qu Moying hesitantly.
"It will only take a moment. Move it down and come back right away. It won't delay anything." The maid pleaded in a low voice.
Seeing that what she said was really pitiful, Yudong put the musical instrument case in Yuchun's hand, walked to Qu Moying, and whispered the matter to her. Qu Moying glanced at the maid and nodded slightly.
The maid was overjoyed and bowed to Qu Moying from a distance. Yudong then went over and helped her move the chair.
The nanmu chair was quite heavy, and even for two maids it was very difficult to lift it. Either they couldn't use all their strength together, or they used it incorrectly. After struggling for a while, they could only move it a short distance.
"Yuchun, come and help!" Yudong couldn't help but look at Yuchun who was standing beside Qu Moying and waiting on him. "Please help us get to the stairs. It will be quick."
