I've been reborn, who still wants to be a cowardly little white flower?

Many people came to Jiang's house, but most of them were young people. No one expected that Grand Scholar Xue would come. Fortunately, the Grand Scholar had a lively chat with the dean and teacher of Cangwu Academy, and Jiang Huai liked him very much.

Zhou Qian'an had been following Xie Yunxiao. Lu Chuan also arrived with his parents, but Lord Lu was a military general and could not chat with these literati.

After a while, Lord Lu was seen coming out of the house, stretching lazily, and walking straight towards the young masters.

Seeing his father yawning, Lu Chuan couldn't help but joke, "Why isn't he in there?"

Lord Lu raised his leg and kicked him on the buttocks, "How dare you tease me, little bastard?"

Several young masters are martial artists and are familiar with Lord Lu. Lu Chuan also passed the martial arts test. When Jiang Yuan heard the news, her heart trembled. Sure enough, her memory was not wrong. In this case, in the summer, he will go to provide disaster relief and suppress bandits, and then...

In the past two days, Jiang Yuan has been thinking about how to help Lu Chuan escape this death. The more he thinks about his death in his previous life, the more strange it seems.

But she didn't know the specific details, and she couldn't ask anyone. After all, Lu Chuan wasn't dead yet, so even if she wanted to ask, no one would know.

Qin Mowei also changed his usual cold demeanor and chatted with Xie Yunxiao and others, but they were all talking about court affairs.

Fortunately, with Qin Mo around, Qin Yunzheng didn't dare to act rashly.

Zhou Qian'an's mother was sitting with several ladies chatting. When she saw that Xue Daxueshi had arrived, she slapped her thigh and said to the Princess and Madam Yu, "Let my master come, but he didn't come. Look, the Daxueshi is here."

The princess looked at Madam Zhou and said with a smile, "Madam, you are not here just to congratulate me, right?"

Everyone in the capital knows that Zhou Qian'an's mother is looking for a girl for him. He would like to put up a notice on the door of his house.

Mrs. Zhou admitted generously, "Yes, I heard that Jiang Zhuangyuan has a beautiful sister, and An'er knows her. I came here eagerly to take a look. She is indeed beautiful."

As he said that, he looked at the eldest princess and couldn't help asking, "The eldest princess treats that girl as her own daughter. Do you think she is good enough and want to keep her as your daughter-in-law?"

The eldest princess's two sons have not yet been married, but they are both on the battlefield now. The marquis's family is of high status, so the eldest princess is not in a hurry.

The princess glanced at Jiang Yuan who was chatting with a few girls, and the affection in her eyes was not concealed, "Of course I like you, but I don't interfere in matters of the heart.

Besides, A-Yuan can choose his own marriage now, so it depends on whether my two useless boys have this blessing. "

At this point, Madam Yu sighed, "What the princess said is true. This Miss Jiang is not an ordinary person. She donated such a large amount of dowry just like that.

Although Yun's incense is very profitable, it seems that Miss Jiang has no plans to open a shop.

I heard that the Yun family was able to quickly accumulate huge wealth because there were several women in the family making incense at the same time, and they opened many shops in Dayu overnight.

Now that the Yun family has declined and only Miss Jiang is left, even if she wants to expand, she is afraid she will not be able to do so.

That dowry is their future support. Master Jiang passed the imperial examination, but without money to bribe his way into officialdom, it will probably not be easy for him.

She has reached the age of marriage, and in this imperial city, without a generous dowry, it will be difficult for her to gain a foothold in her husband's family in the future."

Madam Zhou nodded in agreement, and then said helplessly, "But what if we don't donate? Can it be that if we don't donate the silver, it will fall into the hands of the brother and sister?"

Madam Yu spat angrily, "Bah, you are so heartless. I didn't expect Lord Jiang to be such a person."

"Today, both families are holding banquets at the same time. The brother and sister did not return to the Jiang Mansion, which clearly shows that they have severed ties with that side. Alas, I'm afraid that the official career of the young man from the Jiang family will not be smooth." Another lady said with emotion.

The eldest princess didn't care. She looked in Jiang Yuan's direction and said calmly, "Just wait and see. They both have their own ideas."

The princess knew that with the plans they had put forward for the management of the Heihe River, if this could be accomplished, Jiang Huai's career as an official would be smooth sailing.

As for Jiang Yuan, that girl has such skills. From what I saw from her last performance, I'm afraid she will become a general in the Dayu army in the future.

During the meal, Xie Yunxiao, with a gloomy face, sat at the table with Jiang Yuan and the others.

There were not many people at the table. The ladies were at one table, and the younger girls didn't want to be with their elders, so they sat at a table alone. Except for two girls who were not familiar to Xie Yunxiao, he knew all the others.

Seeing him sitting at their table with an embarrassed look on his face, Jiang Yuan smiled and joked, "Fourth brother, even though we're not going to have separate tables today, you don't have to sit at the same table with us, what's going on?"

Xie Yunxiao snorted unhappily, "My injury hasn't healed yet, so I can't drink."

Qu Ying poured him a cup of tea and joked with him, "Oh, you got kicked out. You can't drink it. Go to the kids' table."

Xie Yunxiao is a simple-minded big boy who usually laughs with his big teeth bared. He is good at making jokes and is willing to help others. So the girls at the table did not feel uncomfortable at all. Instead, they started to tease each other.

Xie Yunxiao was not angry. He listened to the topics the girls were discussing, such as clothes, hairpins, jewelry, rouge and powder. He did not understand them, but he listened with great interest.

Even the second sons of the Qin family, who were sitting at a table not far away, kept their eyes on Jiang Yuan and the others' table. They were particularly unhappy when they saw Xie Yunxiao joking and talking with Jiang Yuan, and they seemed to be getting along very well.

After seeing the guests off, Jiang Huai promised that he would come back to visit the academy when he had time. The eldest princess also left with Qu Ying. The two princes of the Qin family did not cause any trouble.

Before Qin Mowei left, he asked Jiang Yuan, "Are you familiar with Master Xie?"

Jiang Yuan replied coldly, "Yes, like a brother."

Qin Mowei didn't know what he was thinking, but he seemed very satisfied with the answer. He nodded, and a smile appeared on his face which had been gloomy all day.

Xie Yunxiao frowned. Seeing Qin Mowei's carriage leaving, he walked from Jiang Huai to Jiang Yuan, "What did he say to you?"

"He asked me if I knew you well, and I said I knew you very well."

Xie Yunxiao stared at the direction where Qin Mowei's carriage left in an unfriendly manner, without saying a word.

After everyone left, only Xie Yunxiao and Lu Chuan were left. Xue Yangling and Zhou Qian followed them back.

Xie Yunxiao lives in Lu's house, and the two of them will go back together later.

"I didn't expect that after receiving the invitation from Brother Xie, I didn't go to the Marquis' Mansion to attend the old lady's birthday banquet. Instead, Brother Xie paid for it first." Jiang Huai laughed. He drank a lot of wine today and his face was a little red.

When talking about the Xie family's birthday party, Xie Yunxiao's expression flashed unnatural, then he said a few polite words and left.
