When Ren Yaoqi and the three of them came out of the pavilion, the sun had already set in the west. The three of them just spent the afternoon drinking tea and chatting in the pavilion until the princess sent someone to look for it.
The lively scene outside the garden this afternoon did not seem to affect the peaceful atmosphere in the garden at all.
Ren Yaoqi should pay attention to Xiao Jingxi's injuries from time to time. When they left the garden, Xiao Jingxi's fingers had completely swelled. This change surprised Ren Yaoqi and couldn't help but wonder what happened to Xiao Jingxi. Poisoned.
When she accompanied Mr. Pei to repair books for the imperial court, she did not miss the medical book and pharmacopoeia. Although most of them are just watching flowers, she also has some understanding of most intractable diseases in this world. But Ren Yaoqi couldn't think of any poison or any medicine that would make a person invulnerable.
"Yao period? Yao period?"
Xiao Jinglin's voice brought Ren Yaoqi back to her senses, they were going out through the butterfly garden.
"What are you thinking about?" Xiao Jinglin asked.
Xiao Jingxi, who was a few steps ahead, also stopped and looked back. Ren Yaoqi couldn't say that he was thinking about Second Young Master Xiao's illness, and changed the subject vaguely: "Go away, what did you just say?"
Xiao Jinglin was holding the silly girl in her hands. Although the silly girl looked at the weight, it was not light, but Ren Yaoqi just tried to hug it, it was a bit heavy, at least a lot heavier than Brother Cen, but Xiao Jinglin was holding it. But it didn't look exhausted at all.
"You're talking about your name, do you have any small print?" Xiao Jinglin pulled her waist pendant out of the silly girl's mouth and gave it a hand.
The silly girl looked at Xiao Jinglin ignorantly: "Ouch..."
Xiao Jinglin was informal in front of acquaintances, and she didn't feel anything wrong with mentioning Ren Yaoqi's boudoir name in front of Xiao Jingxi, a man. Anyway, she was surrounded by all her people, and those who talked too much died.
On the other hand, Xiao Jingxi coughed lightly and turned his head back a little uncomfortably.
Ren Yaoqi didn't care either: "I was born in April, when Yanbei Qionghua was blooming, and Qionghua was also called Yaohua. On the day I was born, my father just drew a picture of Qionghua, so he named me. Yao period. Small print... I haven't gotten my hairpin yet, so I didn't take it."
Ren Yaoqi said with a sad expression, she had small print in her last life, and there were two more. One is the "Wu Shuang" that her father gave her when she was in her teenage years. Later, I talked to Pei Zhiqian. Mr. Pei said that the flowering period was too short, so she had a lot of misfortune in her life, so she gave her the small character "Biqing", which came from Zhuangzi's "must be quiet and must be clear, no work, no woman, no shake, no woman." It can live forever.”
Seeing the strange look on Ren Yaoqi's face, Xiao Jinglin said, "I don't have any small prints either. How about getting one for the other party when we get there?"
Ren Yaoqi was stunned when he heard the words, then nodded with a smile: "Okay."
The rules on Yanbei's side are generally that the small characters are given by elders when they reach the 笄笄. However, Xiao Jinglin doesn't care about these rules, and Ren Yaoqi's people who have experienced one life don't care much either.
Xiao Jinglin was happy, and gave the silly girl a snort.
Xiao Jingxi shook his head, looked back at Xiao Jinglin, and was about to say that she didn't understand the rules.
Xiao Jinglin looked at Xiao Jingxi and smiled quietly, and said meaningfully: "It's a pity that my literary talent has always been bad." So maybe I need to ask those who have good literary talent for advice.
Ren Yaoqi thought that Xiao Jinglin was talking to her, and said with a smile, "It doesn't matter."
Xiao Jingxi paused, then silently turned around and continued walking.
Xiao Jinglin squinted slightly, and smugly knocked silly girl a chestnut.
Silly girl: "Ow..."
When he was about to leave Qizhenyuan, Xiao Jingxi stopped first, turned around and said with a smile: "You guys go first, I still have some things to deal with."
Ren Yaoqi looked at Xiao Jingxi and knew that he didn't want to appear in front of people with them to be seen and cause any gossip. In the garden just now, after Yun Wenting and others left, the people serving around were replaced by people from Xiao Jingxi and Xiao Jinglin.
For Xiao Jingxi's consideration, Ren Yaoqi was very grateful and bowed his knees to him.
Xiao Jinglin nodded and pulled Ren Yaoqi out of the garden. Xiao Jingxi saw them leave before turning around and walking away from the other way.
After returning to Lanyue Pavilion, no one mentioned the poisonous spider in the teacup of Qizhenyuan today, and the princess did not send anyone to inquire. I don't know if it's because the brothers and sisters Xiao Jingxi and Xiao Jinglin have done a good job of keeping secrets. There is no rumor, or it's because there are too many people in Hot Spring Villa, and everyone doesn't want to make things worse.
The day passed so peacefully.
The second day was the day when all the daughters performed their talents, and it was also the day when the daughter-in-law banquet officially started.
Early in the morning, the princess sent her maid-in-law beside her to dress up Xiao Jinglin. The rather spacious room was surrounded by maids and maids.
Xiao Jinglin sat in front of the dresser with a cold face and forbearance, listening to the concubine's mama Xin who was commanding the whole room, the scene was so grand that Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but laugh.
Ren Yaoqi occupied another dressing table that Mother Xin had asked to move in, and without haste, let Apple and Mulberry change her clothes, while listening to Xiao Jinglin on the other side of the room couldn't bear to say: "I don't wear that! "
Madam Xin said bitterly: "County Lord, all the ladies are all dressed up today, so please bear with me. This princess phoenix crown is taken and changed again, it's not too heavy."
Xiao Jinglin said in a rare childish indignant: "My mother always said that I was rude and not like a girl, and those girls who wear ten-pound head and face jewelry without changing their color every day are the real warriors! It's not that heavy!"
Ren Yaoqi laughed so hard that he almost fell off the stool, and the room was full of laughter and laughter.
Madam Xin looked at Xiao Jinglin with tears in her eyes: "Hello, my good princess..."
In the end, Xiao Jinglin still wore the hood that proved that she was a true warrior. There was no way, the princess gave a death order, and Xiao Jinglin could not disobey.
Xiao Jinglin's outfit today is more grand than yesterday's. She wears a gorgeous long jacket with a true purple embroidered flying phoenix pattern on her body. The phoenix crown on her head is inlaid with a huge night pearl. She looks very luxurious and dignified, which fits her county perfectly Lord's identity.
Mother Xin ran over again to see how Ren Yaoqi was dressing up.
Ren Yaoqi was wearing the lake green and pink lotus-embroidered jacket prepared for her by the Ren family. She was also wearing the head and face jewelry prepared by the Ren family. The clothes and jewelry were not very impressive, but the upper body still made her look good. Slim like a budding new lotus, even standing beside Xiao Jinglin was not concealed by her full body style.
Mother Xin originally wanted to help Ren Yaoqi dress up, but she gave up when she saw her like this.
The venue for today's Qianjin Banquet is a peach forest behind the Hot Spring Villa. I don't know what kind of peach forest this place in the Hot Spring Villa is. It is still in bloom, with pink peach blossoms hanging on the branches.
There are dozens of short tables of huanghuali wood in the peach forest, and fruit plates, fruit wine and cups are placed on each short table, which is somewhat like the scene of a banquet in the palace that Ren Yaoqi heard about.
A lot of people had already come to the peach forest. Ren Yaoqi saw that several sisters of the Ren family had already arrived, and their positions were relatively high. The Yun family must have taken special care of the Ren family.
"Will you sit with me?" Xiao Jinglin looked at it and said to Ren Yaoqi.
Ren Yaoqi saw that there were two people in the same case. The princess and the old princess were sitting at the top, and Xiao Jinglin should be sitting with the princess. Ren Yaoqi didn't want to attract attention at this time, so he refused.
"I'm going to sit over there." Ren Yaohua was looking over here, and Ren Yaoqi pointed at Ren Yaohua.
Xiao Jinglin thought that today she was going to sit with the old princess Xiao Wei and the others, and Ren Yaoqi might be targeted by others if she followed her, so she didn't force it.
"Then I've gone, and if something happens, let someone find me."
Ren Yaoqi nodded, and after Xiao Jinglin left, she went to the Ren family.
Ren Yaohua saw her early in the morning, and when she saw her, he motioned her to sit down and share a low table with her.
Ren Yaoying smiled and said, "The fifth sister is back? I also said that you will sit with the county master today."
Ren Yaoyu glanced at Xiao Jinglin who was sitting over there, curled her lips and said, "The people sitting above are all from the palace. What's the matter with the fifth sister sitting there? There's no reason to make people laugh at the fact that the women of our Ren family have no rules."
Ren Yaohua glanced at them and said coldly: "Do you think the position is too good? Then sit back!"
Ren Yaoying smiled and stopped talking, Ren Yaoyu opened her mouth and swallowed it.
Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but glance at Ren Yaohua in surprise. Haven't seen these people so well-behaved in a few days
Ren Yaohua sneered silently, and the maid of Xiangqin who was standing behind Ren Yaohua immediately came up and said in Ren Yaoqi's ear: "Fifth Miss, we were originally sitting in the back, but a maid next to the princess asked Mrs. Yun to change us to the front. Come on, everyone is in your light."
It turned out that, Ren Yaoqi understood.
It seems that she is right to sit back. Presumably the princess does not want her to see the intrigue within the Yanbei palace. The last time Xiao Jinglin and Xiao Wei had a conflict over the courtyard, she saw it, and she lost the Yanbei palace. face.
Ren Yaoting came here with the people of the Su family. The seat of the Su family was arranged at the lower right of the main seat, which was better than that of the Ren family, so Ren Yaoting sat with Su Fangfei. Seeing them, Ren Yaoting nodded and said hello.
Adjacent to the seat of the Ren family was the seat of Miss Qiu Hong, while Guo Yujiao and Jiang Yuanniang, who had met yesterday, sat diagonally opposite to them.
When they met, they all nodded and greeted each other.
In the end, the princess and Xiao Wei came over with the help of the old princess, and the ladies who were chatting and laughing in a low voice all stopped talking and stood up.
