Chapter 77 Spring Banquet ([-])

Soon a few people arrived at the back garden of the other courtyard, and many people had already gathered here.

After Madam Xu arranged the three of Mother Ning to be seated, she continued to entertain others.

Ning Chu took a general look around, no wonder he chose this place to hold the banquet.

The courtyard was full of apricot trees, and it was the season when the apricot blossoms were in full bloom. Even the seats of the people were scattered under the apricot trees. The breeze blew by, and there were bursts of white apricot blossom rain.

A few flowers were sprinkled on Ning Chu's bun, which blended with the ribbon and complemented each other perfectly.

Ning Xue couldn't help sighing, "It's so beautiful!"

Looking at the rain of apricot blossoms falling on her younger sister, she couldn't help wondering whether it was the beauty of the scenery or the beauty of the people.

Ning Chu thought of something, and told his cousin: "Sister, be careful later, it's best not to touch the food here, even the water."

Ning Xue was surprised when she heard the words, "What's wrong?"

Seeing someone coming this way, Ning Chu had no choice but to stop the topic, "We'll talk about it when we go back, listen to me."

Mother Ning also said, "Listen to your sister."

After all, she has lived in the hands of her stepmother for many years, and she knows some secrets in the back house, especially this kind of banquet, which is an accident-prone area.

Firstly, Ning Chu considered that all kinds of conspiracies described in the novel took place at the banquet, and secondly, Mrs. Xu’s sentence just now was not a reminder, so no matter what, it’s better to be careful.

"I met Mrs. Ning. Hello, the eldest and second daughters of the Ning family. I am Xu Jinjin."

At this time, the visitor had already arrived in front of them, the leader was a girl in pink with a round face, who greeted Ning Mu and the three of them.

Mother Ning quickly took the other party's hand.

"It turned out to be Miss Xu. No wonder Mrs. Xu hid it from us just now. If I have such a beautiful, well-behaved daughter, I have to hide it to be at ease."

Xu Jinjin was a little shy, but still blushed and said:

"Mrs. Ning is absurd, the sisters of the Ning family are truly peerless."

"You guys are all beautiful!"

Ning's mother smiled and patted the little girl's hand, took a silver thread coral bead string from her wrist and put it on the other's hand.

Seeing the little girl's movement to refuse, she quickly stopped her.

"Auntie put it on for you, don't you like it?"

Xu Jinjin just accepted it, "Thank you Aunt Ning, Jinjin likes it very much."

She really likes it very much. This kind of finely crafted filigree coral bead strings can't be seen at all in Qingshan County. One can tell that it is a jewelry unique to the capital.

"Auntie, today I'm here to invite the two sisters of the Ning family to play games with us. The girls are all gathered in the garden center, where the scenery is the most pleasant."

With that said, Xu Jinjin pointed to the direction she came from.

"Okay, let's go play together, little girls. Today, you two sisters don't know anyone here, so please take care of me."

"Auntie, don't worry, this is the task of today."

After finishing speaking, she gave Mother Ning a playful smile.

Only then did Mother Ning feel relieved, this Miss Xu's temper was quite pleasing.

So they sent the two sisters, Ning Chu, over to play together.

When a few people arrived, there happened to be a woman in Tsing Yi who was playing the piano.

This is a small space left in the middle of the apricot blossom grove, where several stone tables are placed staggeredly, with shorter stone benches next to them.

Being in it, it seems to be surrounded by snow-white and dense apricot blossoms, which is really refreshing.

Several people did not make a sound until the end of the other party's song.

At this moment, everyone praised one after another: "Miss Hu's piano skills are much more exquisite, and this song Xinghua Yin is very suitable for the occasion."

"Yeah, yeah, if there was another accompanying dance just now, it would be even better."

"In this case, don't we need a painter?"

"Hahaha... so good, so good."

Xu Jinjin gave a general introduction to the two sisters Ning Chu in a low voice.

The woman in Tsing Yi who played the piano just now is the concubine of Hu County Magistrate's family, but because the county magistrate's wife has no daughter and only has a son like Hu Chengcai, it's okay for this concubine daughter.

Ning Chu thought that the county magistrate's wife should have arrived just now, but they missed her when they came here, so he couldn't help worrying about his mother.

But thinking that my mother came from the capital after all, and was used to seeing all kinds of people, could she still not be able to handle a mere county magistrate's wife?

This relieved me a little.

As for the other girls, most of them are merchants in Qingshan County. The highest status here should be Xu Jinjin and Miss Hu.

While talking, Hu Qingya walked over gracefully.

"Sister Xu, are these the two sisters of the Ning family? Qingya is very polite."

"Miss Hu is too polite."

The two sisters Ning Chu politely replied.

"Qingya has always wanted to meet the eldest sister of the Ning family, after all Qingya thought..."

Speaking of this, Hu Qingya quickly covered the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, "Qingya almost made a slip of the tongue just now, and I ask the two sisters to forgive me."

"It's okay."

Ning Chu was a little speechless, you said it was too much effort to talk to these girls, but Xu Jinjin looked better.

Seeing that everyone was almost there, Xu Jinjin greeted everyone and said:

"Dear sisters, it's my family's turn to have a spring banquet this year, so my sister has the cheek to host it here. If there are some places where the hospitality is not good, please bear with me!"

It dawned on Ning Chu, she wondered before, since it was the annual spring banquet in Qingshan County, how could it be held by Mrs. Xiancheng, it turned out that each family took turns to hold it.

Here, Xu Jinjin continued:
"This is a game between our little sisters. Everyone can let go. If there is anything you want to play, everyone can brainstorm."

When everyone heard the words, they all began to whisper to each other, chattering so lively.

Hu Qingya looked at Ning Chu and the two, and asked, "Two sisters, is there anything you want to play?"

"We sisters don't usually play these things very much, so we don't know much about them."

Ning Chu pretended to be embarrassed and said.

Ning Xue also nodded in agreement. She had never participated in such an occasion, so adhering to the principle of saying less and making less mistakes, she tried not to speak as much as possible, and she was right to listen to her sister.

Xu Jinjin also looked at Hu Qingya and asked, "Does Miss Hu have any suggestions?"

Before Hu Qingya could answer, Hu Chengcai brought a group of men over and greeted Xu Jinjin.

"Sister Xu, what are you going to play? Count us in, what's the point of us being a group of men together?"

When Xu Jinjin heard this, she frowned slightly, but since the other party was the son of the county magistrate, she couldn't refuse at all.

Not to mention that all the women around were eager to be on Hu Chengcai, which made her even more annoyed.

A group of brainless idiots, how can they not know what Hu Chengcai's virtues are?
Scanning around, she happened to see the slightly impatient eyes of the two sisters Ning Chu, which made her feel relieved, and finally there is someone who understands.

At this time, Hu Chengcai happened to see the two of Ning Chu. Although he was a little surprised by Ning Chu's appearance, but thinking that the Ning family didn't know how to flatter him, he asked in a bad tone:
"Sister Xu, why is everyone invited to this spring feast?"

Without waiting for Xu Jinjin to answer, he walked up to the two sisters Ning Chu and said with a sneer:
"What's the matter? Could it be that I was disappointed that I didn't become Mr. Cheng's concubine last time? This time I just sent it to my door specially this time?"
