good wife

Chapter 115: Marrying the In-laws (2)
Jingyi smiled and took Cui Qianqian's arm, "Sister Xiaoshouxing, this is my congratulatory gift, please don't dislike it." After speaking, she signaled Haitang with her eyes to present the wooden box up.

Cui Qianqian's personal maid took it over, and the three of them walked towards the Plum Blossom Pavilion in the garden.

Cui Qianqian lightly pulled Jingyi's little hand, and blamed: "You are always called by my elder sister and younger sister. I thought you would be the first one to congratulate me today, but I didn't expect that it was almost the end. Come."

Jingyi chuckled lightly when she heard the words, although Cui Qianqian's words were full of accusations, but her tone was kind of doting.She raised her head sideways and replied: "It was all because I was playful last night. I got up late this morning. That's why I asked my mother and sister to wait for me. Don't blame sister Cui. Yiyi will apologize to you first." .Please don’t blame Sister Cui again.”

"You girl, you obviously did something wrong, but you have a clever mouth! It's cheap for you!" Cui Qianqian scolded.

"Sister Cui has a knife mouth and a tofu heart, how could she be willing to really blame me?" Jingyi smiled flatteringly.

Jingwei followed behind the two of them, just listening quietly, and didn't say much, in fact, she couldn't get in her mouth either.The three of them sat in the Plum Blossom Pavilion, and the wooden table in the pavilion was already filled with fruits and pastries.

"Today's weather is really good. The sun shines on the body of the person so warm that people don't want to go into the house." Jingyi took a bite of the pastry and said lightly.

Jing Wei continued: "Yeah, there hasn't been such a good weather for a long time. It seems that Ms. Cui's birthday is better, she is lucky."

Cui Qianqian pursed her lips and smiled, "The weather today is indeed good, but I don't know if it's my luck, or your lazy girl's luck?"

After finishing speaking, he smiled at Jingyi.

Jing Yi glanced at her sideways, and said: "Sister Cui is talking nonsense, today is your birthday, so naturally you are lucky. As for me, I am lucky to have food." I took a piece of it and put it in my mouth, eating it with relish!

The three were chatting and laughing here, and after a while, Gu Yu and Liu Wan'er also came.This plum blossom pavilion is even more lively!
Mrs. Dingguo accompanied Mrs. Gu and Mrs. Liu to talk in another pavilion.

Mrs. Liu glanced at the decorations in the garden, and said enviously, "Mrs. Cui is still smart. With this arrangement, the garden is lively and not crowded. You can also enjoy the flowers and listen to the piano. It's really pleasant!"

Mrs. Ding Guogong smiled slightly, "Where is my idea? This is all Sissy's idea, I just let people display it according to her idea."

Mrs. Gu nodded in praise and said, "Miss Cui has a very delicate heart! I don't know how many times better than our Jingyi! Look at the arrangement of flowers in this garden, and these hanging ornaments in the pavilion. ! It really caught my eye."

Mrs. Dingguo smiled slightly, "She is only a ten-year-old girl, how can she be as good as you said? Let her listen carefully, and feel more and more incredible."

Mrs. Gu glanced at the crowd, and suddenly asked: "Mrs. Cui, is that lady the third lady of the family?"

Mrs. Dingguo followed Gu's eyes and saw a man wearing a plain white long brocade jacket, with light green silk threads embroidered on the cloth with ingenious and strong branches, and pale pink silk threads Embroidered small and exquisite jasmine, the whole person looks fresh and beautiful, simple and generous.Who else is it not Cui Moli?It's just that she was alone, without even a maid by her side, standing in front of a canna plant, she didn't know why she was in a daze.

A strange look flashed in the eyes of Mrs. Dingguo, and it was fleeting. She smiled and said: "It's not that Jasmine! Look at this child who comes out without a maid." After finishing speaking, she turned to the mother behind her. Mammy ordered: "Go and see where Miss San's maid has gone. Today is Missy's birthday party, so don't cause any trouble for me."

The nanny agreed and walked towards Cui Moli.

I don't know what the nanny said, but they saw that Cui Moli's face became ugly, turned around and left the garden alone.After a while, the nanny came back and said: "Ma'am, the third lady said that she was a bit cold, and asked the maid to go back and get her a cloak, but for some reason, she hasn't come here until now. The third lady said to go back to the yard to have a look, but that The girl is lazy."

Mrs. Dingguo nodded and said nothing more.Just listen to the tune quietly.And Gu Shi and Liu Shi exchanged glances, but they stopped talking, and accompanied Mrs. Dingguo to listen to the piano quietly.

Cui Qianqian accompanied them for a while, and then went to entertain some other young ladies. After a while, when it was time for the banquet, all the people, led by the nun in charge of the Duke's Mansion, went to a two-story flower hall - "Splendid Pavilion "

Just south of Jinxiang Pavilion, a stage was set up, and it was said that the most famous opera troupe in central Beijing was invited to sing.

The wives are all on the first floor, and the ladies are all on the second floor. This arrangement is not only convenient for the wives to talk about their parents, but also cheaper for the little girls to play around freely.

After everyone finished their meal, the servants withdrew the banquet and replaced it with plates of fruits, snacks, and high-quality chrysanthemum tea.

After a short rest, the gongs started on the stage outside, and the first part of the play was naturally "Eight Immortals Celebrating Birthday".As soon as the gong started, everyone stopped talking and concentrated on watching the play.

Jingyi glanced at the stage, suddenly felt bored and nervous.This ancient man is just as bad, what good is it to listen to these humming things?It's better to listen to the music for a while!
Jingyi was really not interested in such things, so accompanied by Haitangdi, she went for a walk outside. As soon as she left the 'Splendid Pavilion', she was stopped by someone.

"Miss Su, please stay."

Jingyi turned her head and saw that it was Cui Moli.

"I don't know why the third lady is looking for me?"

Cui Moli smiled and said: "I have heard that Ms. Su is very fond of the Four Treasures of the Study. My sister just got an ancient inkstone recently. I would like to ask Ms. Su to help me appreciate it."

Jingyi couldn't help smiling when she heard this, asked her to appreciate the ancient inkstone?This excuse is too bad, right?However, Jingyi was thinking about Cui Moli for a while, she hadn't forgotten that Cui Moli and Bai Min'er once thought about framing her cousin!Now I just take this opportunity to get to the bottom of her.

Jingyi smiled and said: "Miss San is too polite. I am just a child, and I usually only look at those things for fun and collect them randomly. How can your father know much?"

Cui Moli stepped forward and gently pulled her hand and said, "Miss Su is too modest. I heard that the sixth prince once gave a good purple inkstone to Miss Su. At that time, many people didn't know it, so it was Miss Su who explained it. I did a lot of research. It can be seen that Miss Su is very knowledgeable."

Jingyi slightly raised her eyebrows, this Cui Moli would really put a high hat on her.That being the case, it's okay to let her go for a while and see what she has in mind.Thinking about it this way, I began to think about it, and said with a smile: "Miss San is too exaggerated. If that's the case, let Miss San lead the way."
