Jiang Qingxue smiled. Is the thick powder on her face just to cover one or two red spots? She knocked Wu Lixiang's head and said with concern: "Lixiang, don't be too reluctant. The Hundred Flowers Banquet is not a trivial matter. If you can't do it, don't go, so as not to lose your composure in front of others."
Just kidding, she is going to the Hundred Flowers Banquet precisely because it is such a big event. No one can stop her from rising to prominence! Wu Lixiang said angrily: "Thank you for your concern, mother. Lixiang is fine. I have taken your mother's words to heart. I will regulate my behavior and be safe."
"That's good." Jiang Qingxue gave Wu Liuyun a hand. Wu Liuyun also gave a mocking smile, and the two of them walked towards the big carriage at the front.
Wu Lixiang angrily stirred her sleeves, laugh, laugh, you are laughing at me today, one day I will return it!
Jiang Qingxue and Wu Liuyun were standing next to the big carriage. Without any need for the master to speak, Yingtao started to arrange things, and directed the maids: "You put things on the carriage, don't touch them."
"Yes." The maids were busy loading the car quickly. The two women brought enough things, and the maids packed them for a long time.
One look at the formation when they went out, it was incomparable to their concubines. The two groups who were fighting over each other just now could only stand aside and stare, with mixed feelings in their hearts.
After loading the carriage, Wu Liuyun got on the first carriage without looking at them any longer.
Before Jiang Qingxue got in the car, she saw Wu Hantian coming out, followed by Ning Shuang, who was smiling beautifully. Jiang Qingxue's pupils tightened when she saw it. Could it be that Ning Shuang was also going to the Hundred Flowers Banquet? !
"Master." When Aunt Liu and Aunt Meng leaned over, they looked at each other in confusion. Could it be true
"Yes." Wu Hantian waved his hand casually, then pulled Ning Shuang to Jiang Qingxue and said, "Ning Shuang, you and Qingxue should go together. This carriage is better, so as not to jolt you."
Aunt Liu and Aunt Meng were filled with jealousy and madness after hearing this. Although there are many unfair things in the world, this matter is too unfair, right? Only the principal wife can go to the Hundred Flowers Banquet. Ning Shuang, a commoner girl, is still a newcomer! Are you qualified to enter the palace? Even those who have given birth to children for the prime minister's residence are not eligible to go!
Ning Shuang carefully lowered her head to Jiang Qingxue and said, "Yes, Ning Shuang is disturbing Madam."
"If anything, I'm afraid that I may not take good care of Miss Ning Shuang and her children." Jiang Qingxue's face was indifferent. She knew that at this time, she should show her generous and considerate side enthusiastically in order to win Wu Hantian's favor.
But she couldn't pretend... She was so cold and hateful in her heart that she couldn't smile on her face.
Wu Hantian was a little dissatisfied with Jiang Qingxue's attitude. He patted Ning Shuang on the shoulder, telling her not to be afraid, and then walked towards his horse.
Jiang Qingxue held back tears and said to Cherry: "Hurry up and help Miss Ning Shuang get into the car."
As they were about to set off, Wu Jinghua and Wu Lixiang were about to get in the car. Wu Lixiang looked around and said, "By the way, where is the third sister?"
After all, the two of them were "sympathizing with each other", and she felt better when one of them had a rash next to her.
"Never mind her." Wu Jinghua said, jumping on the carriage first.
Wu Lixiang rolled her eyes and was helped up by the maid.
The carriage drove out slowly, and Aunt Liu looked at Wu Hantian's back on the horse and sighed repeatedly. Aunt Meng couldn't help laughing.
Aunt Liu said angrily: "Hey, why are you laughing? It seems that Ning Shuang is favored, and you are very happy. Don't act like this matter has nothing to do with you, and you still want to pretend that you are aloof from the world? "
"I'm not happy, but there are people who are more unhappy than me, so I feel much better." Aunt Meng smiled proudly, "My daughter's face is fine~ She doesn't need such a thick layer of powder. It's just like painting the wall, I won't worry about anything else." She rolled her eyes, turned around and walked back.
snort! Aunt Liu made a death gesture to Aunt Meng's back. Feel free to laugh at Lixiang's face, her daughter is naturally beautiful, even with heavy makeup and light makeup! When Lixiang becomes famous at the Hundred Flowers Banquet and is favored by nobles, those people will cry!
However, what Aunt Meng just said touched Aunt Liu's heart a little bit. They were already so bored just looking at Ning Shuang. Wouldn't Jiang Qingxue and Wu Liuyun, who had occupied the carriage, be like eating flies
Thinking of this, Aunt Liu felt a lot relieved. It didn't matter if she was miserable, what was important was that others were worse than herself!
—
Wu Jinghua and Wu Lixiang got into the car in the middle one after another, and were shocked to find that two people were already sitting in the car!
Wu Sheyue was wearing a pink gauze skirt with a white front and a white veil on her face. She put her hands on her cheeks and leaned aside to relax with her eyes closed. The butterfly on her head trembled and trembled with the shaking of the carriage. It was really beautiful. I wonder if she had heard what happened outside for so long.
But even if Wu Sheyue is here, Wu Yin'er, who shouldn't have come with her, is actually sitting next to her? ! Wu Yin'er folded her hands on her knees, wore a cute pink cardigan, a bun, and a starry hair crown on her head. Well-behaved and very well-behaved.
Wu Lixiang, who squeezed in later, saw this scene and immediately raised her voice, "Why are you here?"
Wu Yin'er lowered her head and said with a shy smile: "Grandma told me to follow and learn a lot. She also told Yin'er to be honest and not to cause trouble to my sisters. Sisters, don't worry."
Wu Jinghua sat down opposite Wu Sheyue, and she was next to Wu Yin'er. She laughed at Wu Lixiang and said, "Hey, in fact, fifth sister should come with her. After all, there are two people with rash in our car, and grandma also cares about the reputation of the prime minister's house. It's not like half of the girls in our house have bad faces." Understand."
"Hmph—" Wu Lixiang learned Wu Yin'er's purpose and suddenly became indifferent to her.
Wu Yin'er didn't expect to make Wu Lixiang unhappy as soon as they met, and she suddenly panicked.
Wu Jinghua raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Okay, fifth sister, you can follow the second sister when the time comes. The second sister has been there once, so it's fine." Anyway, Wu Liuyun wouldn't be willing to go with them, so when the time comes, she will leave Wu Yin'er Take them away and see how these two ugly monsters get confused.
Wu Yin'er used to be the most disliked young lady in the Prime Minister's Mansion besides Wu Sheyue. So she didn't dare to answer directly for fear of offending the other two sisters, so she just pursed her lips and lowered her head.
Wu Lixiang chose to sit on the other side of Wu Sheyue. Although they were very unhappy before (it was no longer just an unpleasant problem), their situation at this time was the same - they both had peach blossoms, and their grandmother was afraid that they would be embarrassed. , and even sent Wu Yin'er to take their place to save face. Then now they should stand together and fight against Wu Jinghua and Wu Yin'er!
Moreover, Wu Lixiang believes that she is a person who understands justice and should put aside personal grudges at critical moments and seek the highest way of benefit.
So she tugged on Wu Sheyue's sleeve and took the initiative to show her kindness, "Third sister, you came so early. I was looking for you just now, but it turns out you've been here a long time ago."
"Yes." But Wu Sheyue made a noise from her nose, and she kept her eyes closed and did not open them. This aloof energy is comparable to that of Wu Liuyun.
Wu Jinghua smiled, Wu Sheyue was so thorny now, Wu Lixiang actually planned to win over her
Wu Lixiang was disappointed and glared at Wu Sheyue fiercely. She doesn’t have the appearance and identity of her eldest daughter, so how dare she imitate others and pretend to be cold
But Wu Sheyue suddenly opened her eyes and looked over, as if she had clairvoyant eyes. Wu Lixiang was startled by her.
—
The car drove steadily on the road. Although this car was not as good as the previous one, it was still very comfortable and spacious.
No one spoke in the carriage. After a long time, when Wu Sheyue closed her eyes and fell asleep, she heard Wu Jinghua speak again: "By the way, we have to walk in then. Have you made an appointment?"
"Go in?" Wu Lixiang was stunned.
Wu Jinghua said very exaggeratedly: "Hey? Didn't grandma ask grandma to teach you? We are not relatives of the emperor. After entering Chaotianmen, we are not allowed to ride horses or cars, not even sedans. Don't you know this?" She relied on her previous experience to try to put pressure on Wu Lixiang and Wu Sheyue.
"This..." Wu Lixiang became really nervous. She said with some embarrassment: "I know it, but I just didn't deliberately remember it."
Wu Jinghua nodded angrily, "Oh~ It doesn't matter. There are so many people anyway, so you won't get lost, right? I made an appointment with Mo'er and the others, and the eldest sister should go with Miss Jiang. The younger sisters have made appointments. A fellow traveler?"
"Aren't we together?!" Wu Lixiang found that this was different from what she imagined! The nuns taught them etiquette and banquet procedures, and the books sent by Wu Liuyun taught them how to identify official ranks and common sense. No one told her to leave separately? Besides, father and mistress are both here, as well as their sisters. What's the point of walking separately
Wu Jinghua asked with a smile, "Does the fourth sister really want to go with me?"
"I don't!" Wu Lixiang said quickly, how could she want to go with Wu Jinghua.
Wu Jinghua sighed proudly, "Don't worry about being led by father and mother. Father came to the palace to do some business, so we have to do it ourselves. Besides... the purpose of the Hundred Flowers Banquet is to make friends, what's the point of getting together as a family~ and It's fun for everyone to go away and play their own things~" she said, and added, "It seems...none of the sisters have a date?"
"Hmph, how do you know I have no one to accompany me..." Wu Lixiang looked away with a brave face, but in fact she was really panicking. She didn't even think about whether Wu Jinghua was teasing her or not before she was already in a hurry. (To be continued)
