Soon they arrived at the palace gate. Since carriages could not enter, they had to walk. Palace maids were arranged at the palace gate to guide them to the plum blossom viewing area. The wind from the carriage blew towards them, and Ye Ziyu subconsciously hid behind Ye Qingyin to avoid the wind.

"Are you cold?" Jiang Xu asked after noticing Ye Ziyu's actions.

"Hehe, it's not cold, it's just that the wind is a little too strong so I hid subconsciously." Ye Ziyu moved out.

"Fortunately, my hands are warm." Ye Qingyin touched Ye Ziyu's hand.

"Pretentious." Ye Xinhe muttered softly. Ye Qingyin heard it and was about to refute when she was stopped by Ye Ziyu.

"Mrs. Ye." Hearing the voice, several people looked behind and saw a lady walking over.

"Mrs. Ling." Jiang Xu looked at the visitor and smiled slightly.

"I haven't seen Madam Ye attend the banquet for a long time. Are you feeling better?" Madam Ling said with a smile.

"Much better. My little girl is back now and my worries are gone. Naturally, my body feels much better."

"I heard from my master before that the general's mansion found their lost daughter. I really want to congratulate Madam Ye. This has solved a big problem for me."

"Ayu, this is Madam Ling."

"Hello, Madam Ling." Ye Ziyu stepped forward and saluted.

"Good, good, good. Her features look very much like Madam Ye. She looks like a pleasing person."

"Yes, they all said that Ayu looks very much like me when I was young. By the way, why don't I see Miss Ling?" Jiang Xu smiled even more happily.

"Stop talking. My girl has gone wild again. I asked her brother to catch her. It would be great if she could be as well-behaved as Qingyin. Madam Ye, let's go in together."

"it is good."

Jiang Xu and Madam Ling walked in front, while Ye Ziyu and the other three walked behind. "It seems that Sister must be disliked by many people of the same age."

"? Why?" Ye Qingyin was puzzled.

"Because my sister is the child of other people's families in the eyes of parents. Parents will definitely compare their children with my sister in every way."

"Hahaha, it doesn't matter. Just hate me if you want. As long as you don't hate me, that's all that matters."

"How could that be? I'm so adorable, hehe." Who would hate a beautiful sister who buys food and clothes for themselves and always cares about them?

"Oh my, brother, please let me go."

"No, if I let you go, Mom won't let me go!!!"

A man and a woman were facing each other at a round table.

"Those parties aren't fun. Why should I go? I can't perform."

"Mom wants you to go, and there's nothing I can do about it."

"If I don't go, you can just pretend you can't find me."

"Ling Bingqing! I say it again, you must go!"

"Ling Sichen, I'll say it again, I won't go!"

"Okay, okay, you don't want to go, right? If you don't go, I will tell Ah Heng all the ugly things you did when you were a child!"

"!!! Ling Sichen, you threaten me again!" Ling Bingqing frowned and pursed her lips.

"Are you going or not?" Ling Sichen raised his eyebrows.

"Just go if you want to. You always use this to threaten me. Can you try another tactic?"

"Who gave you this idea? It doesn't matter how many tricks you have, as long as they work."

"Hmph!" Ling Bingqing glared at Ling Sichen.

"New lotus." Just as Ye Ziyu arrived at the place where everyone was admiring the plum blossoms, a woman trotted over. "Greetings, Madam Ye and Madam Ling." The woman bowed to Jiang Xu and Madam Ling.

"Who are you?" Since Jiang Xu didn't attend any banquets all year round, he didn't know the ladies and daughters very well.

"Aunt, this is my friend Lin Jiarong. I'm going to play somewhere else with her first."

"Go ahead and be careful."

"Yes." Ye Xinhe and Lin Jiarong bowed and left.

"Let the younger ones go play first. The banquet isn't about to start and it would be boring for them to follow us." Madam Ling said to Jiang Xu.

"Well, Ayu and Ayin, you guys should go for a walk too, and be careful."

"Okay." The two sisters answered in unison, then left arm in arm. Madam Ling took Madam Ye to the rest area, "Madam Ye rarely attends banquets, and she is not familiar with the other ladies. Let's go to the rest area and rest first."

Mrs. Ye was very surprised that Mrs. Ling would think so much about her. She smiled and followed Mrs. Ling.

The two found a place to sit in the rest area. "Usually, the Queen's invitations to the banquet will have an earlier time, so that everyone can walk around and enjoy the scenery after arriving, and then she can come later." Mrs. Ling explained.

"Actually, I have a question. I seldom attended banquets in the past, and my master doesn't have many close friends in the court..."

"But why would I come to find Madam Ye and accompany Madam Ye?" Madam Ling asked Madam Ye's question first.

"For those of us who married into the capital, most of our close friends are not around, so we naturally want to find some company to chat with and relieve our boredom. It just so happens that my family is the Tao family, and I have some connections with Madam Ye's family, so naturally I want to get closer to you."

Jiang Xu had deep feelings about this. The Jiang family started out as a business in Xuzhou. She went to Beijing with her father to do business and met Ye Zhengde. She used to be a playful child. It happened to be the Qiqiao Festival at that time and the temple was holding an event, so she sneaked into the temple to play. Later, she was almost in trouble and it was Ye Zhengde who saved her. Ye Zhengde fell in love with her at first sight, and she gradually developed feelings for Ye Zhengde as they got along. When Ye Zhengde came to propose marriage, her father did not agree at first, but later he agreed after much persuasion.

Later on the day of her wedding, she found out that her father was worried that she would have nowhere to go if she was bullied after marrying into the capital. Fortunately, Ye Zhengde had never let her down and had always been very good to her. The old lady once wanted to force Ye Zhengde to take her cousin as a concubine, but Ye Zhengde refused to give in, and finally the old lady had no choice but to give up.

"Mrs. Ye?" Mrs. Ling saw that Jiang Xu was lost in thought and called her.

Jiang Xu came back to his senses and said with a smile, "Mrs. Ling is right. I didn't have the heart to make friends before because of Ayu's matter. Now it's different. Ayu is back. I have to take her out more often in the future. I also have to make more friends. Otherwise, if she goes out to play at a banquet in the future, I will be alone."

"Hahaha, children should not be kept at home when they grow up. It will be boring if they are tied to your side. So, Mrs. Ye, are you willing to be my friend?"

"Hahaha, I feel like Madam Ling and I are destined to be friends. Now that we have made friends, there's no need to call Madam Ling Madam Ye. You can just call me Xu'er."

"Okay, then Xu'er, you can call me Ling'er. I'll introduce you to Yiru later. Her son and my son have a very good relationship, so our two families have a good relationship as well."

"Okay~" Then the two started talking about their children.
