Mrs. Qian entered the hall, and as soon as she reached the door of the room, she began to salute and bow with a smile on her face, and apologized to all the ladies. She only said that she was the mother-in-law and the prince's concubine, and she had something important to do. Let’s deal with it first. Please forgive me, ladies, and please go to the garden of the palace for a walk, although it is a very cold day. But the palace has a special greenhouse for growing flowers in winter, and any lady who likes it can pick up two pots and go.

There are families who hate the Duke's Mansion, and naturally there are families with whom they are friendly. So some people echoed the words of the young lady and laughed and said: "Then we have to choose carefully."

There were even many people who wanted to flatter the Duke and get closer to him. They came to Qian and said to her, "If you have something to do, please go and get busy. We don't need to entertain you. We will eat and drink by ourselves. Madam, eldest young lady." If you are too busy, we can help you."

Qian could only smile awkwardly and said that there was no need to help, everyone just had a good time.

The others are all wives from aristocratic families, and everyone will do this little face-saving thing. Naturally, he would not find trouble with the younger Qian family.

So some older ladies expressed that they wanted to stay in the house to drink tea, and some young wives. There were also some people who usually couldn't curry favor with Shu Mansion, so they naturally planned to go to the Shu family's flower house to take a look.

Among them was the wife of Lu Qi, the Minister of Rites, and the mother of Lu Xuanzhong.

Mrs. Lu was walking to the backyard with the other ladies. The steward's wife beside her had just taken advantage of the opportunity to change clothes and went out for a walk. At this time, she returned to her side and helped Mrs. Lu slowly distance herself from the crowd. She whispered: "The young lady next to the young master saw the young lady. The young lady was wearing blue clothes and yellow clothes. The skirt is covered with a dark green cloak with a white rabbit fur base. The servant asked a lot, but the lady did not wear any conspicuous jewelry on her head, only ribbons and beads. "

Mrs. Lu didn't speak, she just nodded to show that she understood. After looking at the flower room for a while, she wanted to go to the garden again. It would be best to take a look near the greenhouse. What if I'm lucky enough to meet someone? She would always take a look at the person with her own eyes first, and if she identified the person correctly, she would also find out whose girl it was.

...(* ̄0 ̄)ノI am the dividing line

The second young lady Wang came to the guest room where Xiaoba and others were, took a deep breath, and asked the maid next to her to knock on the door.

At this time, Shen Ling'er was telling Xiaoba about the various snacks in the capital, especially those in the alleys, which she and Yang Shuning ate one by one.

Yang Shuning and Shen Ling'er lived a much more wanton life than other young ladies in the capital. Although they were somewhat criticized in the eyes of the wives of various houses, their parents were willing to tolerate them, and others could only talk about them behind their backs. I dare not give it a cold face.

The four of them sat around the table. Shen Ling talked vividly about archway wontons with Xiaoba. Yang Shuning added a few words from time to time. Shui Wanqing smiled softly and poured some water for Shen Ling. Xiao Ba, with his eyes wide open and snacks in his mouth, listened to Shen Ling's words very seriously.

Yang Shuning and three others have discovered that this Miss Yun is not as domineering as those who dote on concubines and concubines, and is simply a greedy child who has not grown up. When everyone compares their age, Xiaoba has gone from being the concubine of the East Palace to a little sister in their hearts, and a cute little sister at that.

"Let me tell you, that family's wontons are only sold after the lights are turned on, and they are sold directly until the curfew. If it hadn't been for one time, Sister Yang's third brother brought a portion back, and Sister Yang and I accidentally ate it, we would have I didn’t even know that there were such delicious wontons in the capital city. Unfortunately, the stall opened too late, and the three of us never had the chance to eat at that stall. The steaming wontons were freshly baked from the pan. Top it with a handful of spring onions and coriander. It’s mouth-watering just thinking about it, especially on a winter day like this.”

"It makes me feel cold just thinking about it. If you go with Sister Yang, don't take me with you." Shui Wanqing joked with Shen Ling with a smile. Because she knew that Shen Ling meant that no matter how pampered her family was, they would not let the two young ladies from the Duke's family go out to eat wontons on the street at night. I am still a guest at my uncle's house, and I can't go out casually at night. It's not that my uncle's house won't let me, but I have to follow the rules.

At this time, there was a knock on the door. Dumpling walked out first, but after a moment he came back and said to Xiaoba: "Master, the second young lady of Duke Chengen's residence wants to see you."

Yang Shuning and the other two looked at each other, and Shen Ling said: "We have no contact with this second young lady! What is she doing here?"

Shui Wanqing gently pulled her.

Yang Shuning whispered: "Keep it down, people are outside, it's not good to hear."

Xiaoba didn't care whether she saw him or not. She had already understood that the relationship between Yan Sinian and the Shu family was definitely not as good as it seemed. Today she was here to feed the rich family, and she would earn money by eating more of the enemy's food.

Seeing that Xiaoba had no objection, Dumpling opened the door and asked Wang to come in.

Mrs. Wang came in and first greeted each other and said hello to the three ladies.

Seeing Mrs. Wang salute to him, Xiaoba also stood up and was about to return the gift, but was stopped by Mrs. Wang. Mrs. Wang smiled and said: "Miss Yun is a distinguished guest, so you don't need to be so polite. The house is busy today, if you have any greetings If you are not careful, I hope Miss Yun will take care of me."

After Wang said this, she looked at Xiaoba. Xiaoba also looked at Wang and said nothing. It was even more impossible for Yang Shuning and the three of them to talk to each other. The atmosphere was afraid of the embarrassment of the sudden silence.

"Haha! Haha! What happened to Miss Yun just now is the fault of my fourth lady. She spoke freely. Don't be angry!" Wang was annoyed in her heart. Why was she so indebted? The imperial concubine sent such an errand. If Miss Yun was unreasonable and soon got beaten and scolded, she would not suffer in vain.

Xiaoba still didn't speak. She thought she was well integrated in this world, but she really didn't expect this kind of operation. He beat his family members in front of so many people, and they even apologized to him.

Really, when you do it yourself, be prepared to be besieged for a while. Even now she is always ready for a group fight!

Looking at the expressionless Xiaoba, Wang was so embarrassed that she didn't know where to put her hands. She looked at Yang Shuning and wanted them to say something for her, but those three didn't even look at her.

"Miss Shui, is your face okay? It's all because our servants are ignorant. The Crown Princess has already tied her up. It's up to you to do whatever you want." Mrs. Wang could only hold Shui Wanqing to resolve her embarrassment.

Shui Wanqing didn't dare to be as disrespectful as Xiaoba. She also smiled apologetically and said to Mrs. Wang: "Second Young Madam, you are serious. Wanqing is just a minor injury, nothing like it. The servants of your house, of course, have How can Wanqing overstep the rules and regulations of your house!"

"As long as it's okay! Just as long as it's okay!"

Just when Ms. Wang didn't know how to find another topic, a lot of voices came from outside the house.

"What's going on outside?" Shen Ling asked.

"When I came here just now, I saw all the ladies going to visit the lake. Maybe they were setting off!" Mrs. Wang added hurriedly.

"Lake tour? Lake tour in this winter? What's on the lake? They're not afraid of the cold either."

"This..." Wang looked at Xiaoba and didn't dare to say anything.

What do you mean, what's on the lake? There is a prince! Even if he couldn't enter the East Palace, the prince's face would attract all the ladies in the city to watch. But in front of Xiaoba, she really couldn't say these words.

So I could only laugh awkwardly.

Yang Shuning winked at her maid. The maid slowly retreated and ran back after a while.

He whispered a few words in Yang Shuning's ear.

Yang Shuning said to Wang, "Second Young Madam, we also want to go to the lake, but we don't know it's inconvenient above the house."

"It's convenient, of course it's convenient. Just across the plum garden is the Jinghu Lake in the mansion. The ladies can just go there. I have some things to do, so I can't accompany you."

"It doesn't matter, the second young lady just goes and does her business." With Yang Shuning's status, there is no need to be polite to the second young lady.
