Fast Time Traveling Moon Old Candidate

Chapter 283 The next song (38)

Perhaps because she caught Bai Lu's presence, Cao Mumei specially dispatched servants to guard the several exits of the house, for fear that Bai Lu would sneak out again.

So, Bai Lu continued her previous boring days of reading, playing the piano, and drawing.

"Miss, someone is looking for you in the front hall."

One day, Bai Lu was sitting on the soft couch reading the script when the maid knocked on the door and came in to deliver the message.

"Looking for me?" Bai Lu was a little puzzled, she didn't know anyone in Shangjin City, so why would someone come looking for her?
The maid nodded, "Yes, the man pointed out that he was here to find Miss."

Bai Lu put down the book in her hand and tilted her head slightly, "What does that person look like? Male or female?"

"It's a girl wearing a red brocade double-breasted skirt. She was shouting outside the courtyard that she was here to see the lady." The maid recalled the scene just now and told Bai Lu.

The girl in red...

Bai Lu tapped her chin with her fingers, and began to wonder who would come looking for her?
Almost all the girls I know are students from the women's school in Hanlin Academy, but they all live in Changhe County at home, and it is unlikely that they will come to Shangjin City. Could it be that Du Pingsi misses herself too much, so she came to Shangjin City to see yourself?
No, no, if it's Du Pingsi, the servant and maidservant must know each other, so who could it be?
When Bai Lu couldn't figure it out, the woman she bumped into in the jewelry store that day suddenly appeared in her mind. Her name seemed to be...Gao Xuantong?

"Could it be her?" Bai Lu murmured softly.

"Miss, do you want to go out and meet that man?" The maid looked at Bai Lu as if lost in thought, and couldn't help but speak.

Bai Lu put down the notebook in her hand, put on the shoes that were resting on the footrests, and stood up, "Since I'm here to see me, it's natural that I have to meet."

The maid brought Bai Lu to the front hall, and before she entered, she heard Gao Xuantong's voice, "This tea is good, it should be Dahongpao, it's slightly astringent at the entrance, but sweet afterward, it's not bad, it's good tea."

"If the princess likes it, how about I ask the servant to bring you some back later?" Bai Lu stepped into the front hall with her skirt in her hands, and said with a curved eyebrow.

Gao Xuantong was also not polite, and responded with a smile, "That's a good relationship. My father and I both love tea. It's rare to see such a good tea. Bai Lu, then I won't be polite."

With a smile on her face, Bai Lu turned her head and told the maid who was following behind, "Go, pack some good tea from the warehouse, and let the Princess take it back."

"Yes, miss." The maid responded, bowed to the two of them, and then withdrew.

Bai Lu sat beside Gao Xuantong, picked up the teapot on the table and poured some tea into her cup, "Why did the princess pay a sudden visit today, but what's the matter?"

Gao Xuantong picked up the teacup and took a sip, then savored it carefully, put down the teacup, and took out a post with a peach blossom pattern from his sleeve pocket, "This is the invitation for the peach blossom banquet at our house, and the time is only ten days Afterwards, I came here specially to send you a post, Bai Lu."

invitation?

Bai Lu was a little taken aback, she didn't expect to receive an invitation that only noble ladies in the script would receive, she was a little surprised, "Ask me?"

"Of course I invite you. If it's someone else, I'm not willing to deliver the post myself!" Gao Xuantong put the post on the table, patted Bai Lu on the shoulder, got up and left, "The post has been delivered, I should go too , Bai Lu, remember to dress better that day~"

After finishing speaking, Gao Xuantong strode away, just as the tea-packing maid came towards her, Gao Xuantong took the oil-paper bag holding the tea leaves in her hand, and Bai Lu raised her hand, "Bai Lu, thank you for the tea! Wait for the peach blossoms!" Let me treat you well."

A two-horse carriage was parked at the gate of the house. Gao Xuantong got into the carriage with tea, and the carriage staggered away from the gate of the house.

"I delivered the post, this time you owe me a favor." Gao Xuantong picked up the snack on the bench of the carriage, took a bite, turned his head to look at Jing Wenfu who was sitting by the window, his eyes were full of cunning .

Jing Wenfu raised his eyebrows, and counted the folding fan in his palm one after another, and said in a casual tone, "Don't worry, I will never break my promise to you."

"Hmph, that's good, Jing Wenfu, you have to remember what you said." Gao Xuantong leaned his back against the wall of the carriage, narrowed his eyes slightly, and curled up the corners of his mouth, looking extremely lazy.

Jing Wenfu opened the curtain and looked outside the car, "Please ask the princess to take me to the long street, Wen Fu is very grateful."

"Don't go." Gao Xuantong refused very straightforwardly, "Going to that kind of place is simply dirty to the horseshoes of our Zhennan General's Mansion. You have to go there by yourself, don't try to rub my car."

Jing Wenfu looked regretful, put down the curtains, and hugged Gao Xuantong, "Then please ask the princess to let the groom stop, and I can walk over by myself."

Gao Xuantong, who had already closed his eyes to take a rest, immediately opened them, and his round eyes caught Jing Wenfu in disbelief, "Aren't you going to pursue Bai Lu, why are you going to such a place?"

"The princess doesn't understand." Jing Wenfu opened the folding fan, covering half of his face, with a meaningful smile on his face.

Gao Xuantong closed his eyes, and waved to him impatiently, "Okay, I don't understand, and I don't want to understand, anyway, I've already done what you asked, just remember to fulfill your promise later."

"That's natural." The carriage stopped slowly, and Jing Wenfu lifted the curtain with a folding fan, and jumped out of the carriage, "Then I will take my leave first." After speaking, he turned around, waving his fan, and walked into the long street.

On Bai Lu's side, she was sitting on the footsteps, holding the invitation card in her hand and frowning.

Let's not talk about what this peach blossom banquet is for, I don't know anyone in Shangjin City, so I went to this banquet rashly, it's okay if nothing happens, but what should I do if something happens.

'knock knock'

Someone knocked on the door suddenly, and then Cao Mumei's voice came from outside the door, "Ninny, are you in the room?"

"Mother, I'm here." Bai Lu subconsciously pressed the invitation card in her hand under the script, stood up and opened the door for Cao Mumei.

Cao Mumei walked into the room with a sweet soup in her hand, and put the sweet soup on the round table, "Although the weather has started to warm up recently, it's still a bit cold after all. I saw that you seemed to have a cough yesterday, so I asked Uncle Li to give you some sweet soup." Stewed rock sugar Sydney."

"Thank you, mother." Bai Lu sat down, picked up the bowl of rock sugar snow pear, and sipped it in small sips.

Cao Mumei watched Bai Lu drinking the sweet soup, but didn't say a word. When she put down the empty bowl, she put it away and said, "I heard that a girl came to the house today to look for you? What's the matter?"

Bai Lu wiped the corners of her mouth with a silk handkerchief, stood up and put the invitation card under the notebook on the soft table and handed it to Cao Mumei, "That's the daughter of General Zhennan, Princess Anning County Gao Xuantong, who is here today Send invitations."

Cao Mumei opened the invitation, and the words 'Peach Blossom Banquet' on it were particularly eye-catching, with a surprised expression on her face, "She invited you to the Peach Blossom Banquet?"

"Mother, do you know what this peach blossom feast is?" Seeing her expression, Bai Lu seemed to know something, and asked quickly.
