Liu Ruxu choked, but she turned around quickly and squeezed out a smile, which made her look like a lady: "I heard that Miss Zhao is getting better. I haven't seen her in just a few days, and her face is much rosier than before. Look, Miss Zhao is getting better."

I came because I was engaged to be engaged. I was not in good health before, but fortunately I have worn this clothes three times in a row, otherwise I would not have recognized her."

Immediately, many noble ladies covered their mouths with ropa and couldn't help but secretly laugh.

Every noble lady in the capital has at least a dozen sets of clothes, or even dozens of sets. At every party, they will match their clothes with matching jewelry according to the occasion, which can be said to be armed from head to toe.

Even if there are not enough clothes, they will be staggered so that no one can notice that the clothes have been worn.

Wearing the same set of clothes twice in a row feels a bit shabby. Even if the family is not rich and the ministers with many daughters belong to the Zhou family, I have never seen anyone wearing the same set of clothes and jewelry for two banquets in a row, let alone one after another.

Worn three times.

Xining looked indifferent: "I like this suit. Anyway, even if I wear this suit a hundred and eighty times in a row, no one will think that I am short of money in the Zhenguo General Mansion, or that someone will treat me harshly. Since Miss Liu has

If you think I look good in this suit, I will wear it a few more times to show Miss Liu."

That's right. Is the concubine of the Zhenguo General's Mansion still short of clothes and jewelry? I almost got into a fight with the princess over a set of jewelry. How could I ever go to Jubao Pavilion and not buy three to five thousand taels of jewelry? It is said that the bill

Taking it to the Zhenguo General's Mansion, Mrs. Zhao asked someone to pay the money without even raising an eyebrow.

Looking at the outfit that made her lose face that day, she didn't change it at all, as if to remind her. She even got a black bruise on her forehead that day, and it took half a month for the blue to fade. Liu Ruxu, who said she couldn't take advantage of anything,

I almost vomited blood out of anger.

He said bitterly: "Miss Zhao, don't you think that no matter how beautiful a dress is, it will become boring if you wear it too much?"

"It's very interesting!" Xining seemed to be admiring the other person's way of wanting to skin her alive, but still pretending to be virtuous and generous: "But it's true, anyway, if I don't wear this suit, everyone will remember me wearing it.

This set looks like this, I will change it to something else next time.”

Even if they don't wear this outfit, everyone will still think of the day when the concubine of the Zhenguo General's Mansion tripped over Liu Ruxu and the concubine hit her with a hand warmer.

Something came from before Leng Buding: "Even though I'm dressed well, everyone knows that the Zhenguo General's Mansion is very wealthy. Miss Zhao likes this outfit so much that she might have made several identical ones in a row."

Xining looked over and saw that he was the Lord of Jiashun County. Also, the Lord of Jiashun County was not married yet. Apart from the princesses in the palace, among the noble girls of the right age who lived in the capital and were not married or betrothed, he was the only one.

Her status is the most noble. Therefore, she will naturally send messages to her at any banquet.

Xi Ning said leisurely: "No matter how many there are, there are not as many big silver and gold bracelets. Only the Prince of Hua County has so much money, and he uses big bracelets to reward people. I wonder if those bracelets have been used up?"

The Lord of Jiashun County choked and couldn't find the words to fight back, so he could only angrily pick up the tea on the table and drink it.

Thinking of the rumor that the Lord of Jiashun County was tricked into buying a cabinet of large silver and gilt bracelets out of anger, all the noble ladies couldn't stand it anymore.

Liu Ruxu was so angry that she turned around and left without caring about etiquette. In this state, she couldn't greet others, so she might as well go somewhere else and wait until her anger calmed down before coming back.

Zhao Yingxue on the side lowered her head, wringing the handkerchief in her hand, and her voice was very weak and full of apologies: "It's all my fault that Third Sister and Miss Liu are at odds. How about I go apologize to Miss Liu and resolve the issue?"

It's a misunderstanding..." As he said it, his voice trembled slightly, and it seemed like tears would come out.

Xining just looked at her like this, not even bothering to say anything. No matter what she said, it was all for the sake of this weak and helpless concubine.

She picked up a plate of snacks in front of her: "Would you like to eat?"

Zhao Yingxue was stunned. Why didn't he act according to common sense? Shouldn't he be comforted or say something like "It's his fault in the first place and it's none of your business."

Looking at the third sister in front of her, she picked up a plate of snacks and looked at her sincerely. Zhao Yingxue shook her head.

"Oh." Xining put down the plate and turned around. He finally asked the drama queen to stop, otherwise it would be painful to watch.

After a while, the mother in charge came over and asked all the ladies to move into the courtyard.

In the flower yard, thick mats have been prepared and laid out on the ground in a circle.

Each mat is placed on a low table, and everyone kneels down according to the etiquette of facing forward. If you feel that kneeling is tiring, you can also sit sideways.

Since ancient times, people have spread out banquets under flower trees, served wine and food, and enjoyed the flowers while eating. In this way, it is not more interesting than walking in the courtyard to enjoy the flowers after eating in the house.

Every two noble ladies will sit at one table. If you have sisters, you will naturally sit together. If you are single, then sit with the noble lady with whom you have a better relationship.

The men's seats are on the other side, and the banquets on both sides are separated by pieces of thin white gauze. The spring breeze blows through it, and through the translucent white gauze that floats from time to time, you can only see a flicker of the other side. When the wind stops, you can see

There are also vague figures through the white gauze.

The men and women at the banquet were each minding their own business. The men's banquet became lively more quickly. After the urgent drum beat, it stopped abruptly, and then burst into laughter.

Miss Liu asked the Lord of Jiashun County to sit in the chief's left seat, and she sat beside him as a foil. She asked the maid to go over and ask what was going on in the men's seat.

The maid came back and reported that they were beating drums and passing flowers around there. When the drums fell, whoever got the flowers would draw lots. Whatever was drawn, they would perform their talents according to what was written on it.

Just now Mr. Chang from the Zhongfeng Doctor's Mansion won the "Dancing Sword" draw.

The officials in Zhongfeng were civil servants, and the Changfu officials were descendants of the founding officials who had contributed to the founding of the country and were living on empty salary. The ancestors of the Changfu family had meritorious service, but their merits were not enough to be crowned kings, so the descendants relied on their ancestors' cover to seek a career.

It's just an official position. In this generation, people are becoming more and more hopeless. They are not very good at reading, let alone practicing martial arts.

I saw a figure behind the white gauze tent wielding a sword clumsily. If I hadn't told him, I would have thought it was someone who was drunk and waving a poker around blindly.

The noble ladies here couldn't help but smile softly.

The Lord of Jiashun County found it interesting: "How about we play this too."

It's interesting, but it's only interesting if you embarrass others. If you get picked something you're not good at and make a fool of yourself in public, it won't be interesting at all.

In order to please the Lord of Jiashun County, Liu Ruxu quickly called for preparations.

Get a small drum, and then break a peach branch with flowers from the peach blossom tree next to it. There is also a bamboo tube with more than 20 bamboo sticks in it. The talent to be performed is written on the end of the bamboo stick, and then the play begins.

.

A maid covered her eyes with a piece of cloth and began to play the drum. The peach branches began to be handed over quickly in the lady's hands...
