Chapter 204: A Clever Plan, Seeing Sakura for the First Time (8)
Mrs. Guo hurriedly helped Ning Yue up, laughing until her stomach ached, gave her mother-in-law a look, and said: "I only bully honest children, be careful that Xiao Yin is here, I will annoy you!"
Over there, Ning Xi and Ning Wan also finished kowtow, Mrs. Guo hurriedly helped them up, arranged for the three sisters to sit on the chair on the left, and the old lady was ushered into the main seat. After all, as an old lady, she couldn't sit in such a good seat, but Mrs. Guo valued her, so she treated her like her own sister.
"I've heard about your fourth child, don't worry too much, he's auspicious, he will be fine." The old lady said.
The old lady nodded pleasantly: "What the old sister said is true."
The old lady looked at Ning Yue again, and said strangely: "Did that kid really give you ten loads of gold?"
Ning Yue blinked.
Mrs. Guo hurriedly said: "Mother, this child is honest, don't cheat her of gold again! She will really show it later!"
The old matriarch pursed her lips, and asked Ning Xi again: "I heard you became dumb after burning?"
Mrs. Guo turned her face away, and looked directly at her in disbelief.
Ning Xi's complexion turned pale, and he stood up and replied, "It's true that I couldn't talk much a few days ago, but it's much better now."
The old lady cast her eyes on Ning Wan again, Madam Guo was afraid that this old ancestor would say something shocking to the world, she smiled and said, "Did you just say you want to play cards or throw pots?"
The maid serves tea.
Ning Yue took it in her hand and began to look at the people in the room. Except Mrs. Guo and Mrs. Guo, there was no second master. Suddenly, a beautiful woman walked out. She was about forty years old, wearing the clothes of Mrs. Yipin Gaoming, somewhat similar to Concubine Jia De in the palace.
She glanced around, smiled at Mrs. Guo, and said, "Grandma, there are guests, it's so radiant!"
She called Mrs. Guo's aunt...Ning Yue guessed the identity of the other party, Concubine Jia De's biological mother—Ms. Jia.
Mrs. Guo introduced the two parties, Mrs. Jia bowed to the old lady, and the old lady asked the three sisters Ning Yue to bow to Mrs. Jia. Neither of them mentioned anything about the palace, nor did they mention Chen Bo, Ma Ningxin and Jia Yuyan. things, get along quite well. Perhaps, this is the intention of the Guo family, and hope that the two parties will turn their hostility into friendship through this birthday banquet. No matter what you think in your heart, everyone will buy the old lady very much on the surface.
Old Madam Jun Jingrui had a smile in his eyes, and asked again: "Where's Huier?"
"Grandmother misses me after a while, doesn't she?" With a burst of beautiful laughter, Princess Fuyuan opened the curtain and entered.
The old lady and others stood up and wanted to salute her. She waved her hand and said, "No need, no need, this is a family banquet, there is no distinction between monarchs and ministers!" Her eyes paused on Ning Yue's face for two more seconds, but it was obvious that the intimacy a few months ago had already passed. Slowly fading in the long river of time, she smiled friendly.
Ning Yue bowed her body.
Afterwards, she handed a brocade box to the old matriarch, and said in a playful manner: "Why do you think I am late? I entered the palace, and I have brought you a congratulatory gift! This is the birthday present from the imperial concubine, It is said to be made of blood jade, you must like it after seeing it."
It's a blood jade vase, the old lady likes it very much, she showed it off in the room, she didn't know what to think of, and then she sank her face again: "The third brother's heart has come, where is the second child's family? Why did you go? The sun is drying our ass, why not come! You want all of us to wait for them?"
Princess Fuyuan smiled warmly: "Here it is, Zhongxun and Zhongjie went to pick it up at the door, and they will be there as soon as they talk."
Ning Yue looked at how everyone in the Guo family got along very harmoniously, and felt a little envy in her heart. Although Princess Fuyuan is a princess, everyone in Guo's family only regards her as an ordinary daughter-in-law. Princess Fuyuan has been married to the Guo family for five years and has never given birth, and the Guo family has never seen her despise her. Princess Fuyuan knew that she had a bad heart and couldn't give birth to a child for Guo Zhongxun, so she proposed to take a concubine for Guo Zhongxun, but Guo Zhongxun didn't agree, and Guo's family never forced it. Anyway, the young couple is a young couple's business, as an elder, just accept it . As for Guo Zhongjie, it is said that he will be twenty-three this year, and he has not found a person he likes, and he has never seen the Guo family forcefully engage him.
Ning Yue thought, if she was born in such a family, she would be crushed to pieces and not let anyone destroy it.
The old matriarch got impatient with waiting, frowned with gray brows, and hummed: "Don't wait, don't wait! Let's play cards!"
Mrs. Guo hurriedly asked Mother Cui to set up a table of leaf cards, and the old lady called the old lady, Mrs. Jia and Princess Fuyuan together, and they had a good fight.
Mrs. Guo smiled again and said to the young guests: "It's not fun here, I'll take you to the garden. There is a new lotus pond in the garden, which is raised in warm water. There are already lotus flowers to see. After watching the lotus flowers , I’ll take you to see the church.”
The maids raised the curtain.
Mrs. Guo patted Ning Xi's hand, and said softly, "Come."
Ning Xi was the first to go out.
Ning Yue followed closely behind.
Unexpectedly, just as Ning Yue was about to cross the threshold, a small snow-white shadow pounced on her face!
Ning Yue suddenly changed color, and the little shadow crashed into her arms, tearing and tearing her pearl necklace.
Papa papa, the pearl fell to the ground.
Everyone was freaking out.
Ning Yue was about to take the little thing away from her body, but at this moment, somehow, a small person rushed over.
"Xiaobai! Come back to me! Ah—"
The little man flung himself on Ning Yue magnificently.
Ning Yue fell to the ground. She lay on Ning Yue's body with a blanket on the ground. Neither of them were injured.
The old lady hurriedly put down the half-played leaf cards: "What happened, this is?"
People around hurriedly helped Ning Yue and the little man up, and the little man was holding a snow-white mink in his arms, which was the "culprit" who had just torn Ning Yue's necklace. The little ferret seemed to realize that he had made a mistake, so he huddled in his owner's arms and dared not come out.
The little man raised his immature face, and said apologetically to Ning Yue: "I'm sorry, my sister, my Xiaobai is too naughty, did I hurt you?"
Ning Yue was stunned the moment she saw her face clearly, Xiangli? No, or she should be called... Xuan Xiaoying.
