Taoyao Order

Chapter 68 Come Again
On the way back from Chen's house, Taoyao looked at the bright red invitation in her hand and walked around in circles, but she finally decided to go.

I originally thought I would visit during the Chinese New Year, but I never thought I would postpone it for more than a month.But at that time, she was full of longing for the future and at a loss. She knew nothing about the Chu Ping that everyone knew.

Now, in her memory, the man whom others mentioned had more facial features and facial features, as if there were no more unknowns, which made her a little more happy.

She had just returned to Zi Ling Pavilion, but Tao Yao did not go back to her own residence, so she went straight to Ting Xiang Xiang Pavilion where Liu Yunjin lived to ask for leave.

Listening to Taoyao telling him where he was going, and looking at her pink-faced appearance, Liu Yunjin just looked as usual and said: "If you want to go, you can go. It's just a spring feast like this. When we are in the capital, Those wealthy families often do this.

Mostly, young ladies from many families are invited to show their love to the elders of the family, and in the name of appreciating spring, they choose wives for their children and grandchildren.If you dress more brightly tomorrow, it will make you stand out. "

Upon hearing this, the smile on Tao Yao's face suddenly stopped. The Chu family is not a noble family, so is it possible that they are still making trouble to choose a concubine?

Why should I dress up brightly and let others judge me and pick and choose.

"Master Liu was joking, the old lady of the Chu family just asked her to enjoy the flowers." Tao Yao replied stiffly.

But Liu Yunjin disagreed: "Appreciating flowers? I think you girls are the flowers they want to enjoy. On the third day of March, the official day of the Si Festival, is it possible that you are the only one invited to the Chu family's spring appreciation banquet?"

Taoyao didn't say much. When she came out of Liu Yunjin's place, she felt as if a breath was blocked in her chest and she couldn't get out.

She looked at the invitation in her hand, and thought of the young girls from various families in Hangzhou who were going back and forth like that, and how they were vying for the position of the Chu family's grandma. Taoyao was a little repulsed, and she didn't even want to go.

Think about Chu Ping again, if he treats himself like this, does he treat others the same way?

He only went to the library to study occasionally, but there were so many girls in Hangzhou who went to the library to study. Did he also have lunch with other girls?Do you want to go with me too?

What kind of romantic history does he have?On the third day of March, what kind of girls could he meet at his house? Will they be his childhood sweethearts?And the people he admired and admired him?
Taoyao didn't know who she was.

But it only lasted a few days, and it was the third day of March.

On this day, Shao did not wait for Taoyao to go to Liuye Lane to pick her up. Instead, he took the Chen family's carriage, held the invitation, and went to the Chu family with Taoyao arrogantly.It was as if he was trying to regain the face he lost last time.

The carriages and horses were rattling, and what Tao Yao had prepared was the meeting gift that her parents had prepared for the Chu family at home.

Taoyao didn't add anything, nor did she take away anything.She didn't even bother to match her clothes. She just wore what she wore last time, just because the weather was warm now, so she didn't need to wear a thick ermine cloak, so she only changed to a thin cloak made of brocade material.

The carriage arrived at Ping'an Lane again, and it was quiet outside. It was not like Taoyao had imagined that there would be carriages and horses on the road and no crowds of people.

The boy guarding the gate received the invitation handed over by Shao from the carriage and hurriedly ran to deliver the letter inside.

The other two boys stepped forward and opened the threshold, leading the two carriages into the main entrance.

The carriage only waited in the front yard for a while, and Chu Ping personally greeted the second door.The two carriages were also led by the Chu family's servants and stopped outside the Chuihua Gate.

Chu Ping stood at the hanging flower door of Chu's house and watched Taoyao open the car curtain and slowly get out of the car. He seemed to be in a trance back to the time when he first met her.She was dressed almost the same as she was today, except that it was clear after snow back then, and now it was warm spring breeze.

She wore a light purple cloak with embroidered peony patterns outlined with gold and silver threads, which made her delicate and beautiful face more elegant and dignified.

However, it was different from the last time I saw her. At that time, although she was here for the first time and Shao was still arguing with Bai Zhaowen, her eyes were as clear as a mirror and not stained by a trace of dust.But for some reason, as soon as Taoyao got off the carriage today, Chu Ping noticed a hint of displeasure on Taoyao's part.

Taoyao never thought that Chu Ping would be waiting for them at the second gate.

Chu Ping stepped forward to salute Shao, and Shao was flattered. He stepped forward and returned the salute to Chu Ping, smiling all the way and praising him for his trustworthiness. The last time he said he would come to greet them in person, Shao could only treat it as a polite and perfunctory comment. Who would have thought that he would actually come out to greet them.

Shao was in the front, chatting animatedly with Chu Ping, but Tao Yao didn't have much joy on her face, so she just followed behind silently.

Although Chu Ping was leading the way and acknowledging Shao's endless compliments, he still noticed that Taoyao was in a bad mood, so he deliberately slowed down his pace and said to Taoyao as if he was guiding the way: "Madam, miss, let's go here." Here, grandma has hosted a banquet in the back garden and is waiting for you to sit down."

Tao Yao only half-smiled and said, "Oh, are you just waiting for us? Are all the girls next to you here?"

When Chu Ping asked, he stopped in confusion: "Who is the girl next to you?"

Tao Yao looked up at him and said, "Today is the Si Festival, the Chu family's spring banquet. There must be a lot of girls coming to the banquet, right? I'd rather trouble Mr. Chu to greet them one by one at the second gate."

Chu Ping was even more surprised when he heard this: "I know that grandma only invited the girl and Mrs. Shao to the banquet today. She didn't invite anyone else. Who did the girl hear that there were others?"

These words were completely beyond Taoyao's expectations. She had never thought that Chu Ping and the old lady of the Chu family would only invite her alone today.

She looked at Chu Ping with wide eyes and surprise, and for a moment she didn't know how to react.

Until she followed Chu Ping out of the Chu house, she entered the third courtyard, which was the Kendo, and passed the moon gate before entering the back garden. Tao Yao still felt light and airy, as if she was stepping on the clouds.

The Chu family is indeed rich and powerful for generations, and the family's house is also very spacious. The house in front looks like an ancestral house, similar to Taoyao's house. Somewhat tight.

But the back garden seems to have been newly built in recent years and is very spacious.

There are not only flowers and grass, but also pavilions, pavilions, rockeries, ponds, and trees. Living water from outside the wall is introduced into the pool. There are small bridges and flowing water, rockery waterfalls, and the sceneries change as you move. It is really impressive.

Taoyao followed Chu Ping along the rockery grotto, and after passing the winding path, it suddenly dawned on her. The lilac, cherry blossom, magnolia, and camellia trees inside were all over the garden. They passed through two stages, one of which was open-air. "Wangyue Tower" and a stage set up in "Miaoyin Pavilion".Further east, the Chu family's Spring Appreciation Banquet was held in a small courtyard, and the plaque above the moon gate of this small courtyard actually said Taoyuan.
