After rebirth, dribbling and leaving

Su Qingling laughed with everyone and felt that the road ahead was becoming brighter!

The next day, the front door of Xin'an Marquis' Mansion was cleaned and swept, waiting for the female guests to arrive!

The two brothers Xin'an Hou Su Mingyuan, the second master Su Mingzhe is working outside, but his wife did not go with him. It was his aunt Zhang Lier who went with him!

The two brothers lived in the East and West Palaces respectively. During the three years when Marquis Su was away, there was very little communication between the East and West Palaces!

The second wife, Tang Lishi, was from a fifth-rank official family and was quite pretty!

Today, he brought his legitimate son and daughter as well as his illegitimate son and daughter to the East Palace early in the morning. The smile on his face had never faded since he came here!

She had a son and a daughter. Her son, Su Mingjie, was twenty-one years old. He was now a minor official at the city gate and married the second daughter of Qin Heng, the prefect from another place!

The legitimate daughter has also been promised to Li Chen, the second legitimate son of the Earl of Ci Ning, and they will get married in the next six months!

But there is also a concubine's daughter, Su Qingli, who is already thirteen this year. She has always not wanted to take care of her, but she can't stand her biological mother, Aunt Liu, who plays tricks every few days. It's really annoying!

The West Palace doesn't look as quiet and clean as the East Palace.

There are many concubines here. Two of them gave birth to a concubine son and a concubine daughter for the West Mansion.

He also has two concubines. If it weren’t for his extraordinary means, he would have had eight or ten illegitimate children!

Today is said to be a flower-viewing banquet, but in the middle of summer, all they do is put an ice basin in the pavilion and let everyone recite poems, write couplets and play games!

Although the men's courtyard is separated, there is no strict separation between men and women in Dali Dynasty. Generally, people who are familiar with each other will hang out in the same place!

Of course, if some families have already expressed interest in the relationship, you can take this opportunity to strike up a conversation and have more contact with each other so that you can get to know each other better!

Soon, many carriages arrived one after another, and Su Lijie took on the role of welcoming and entertaining the male guests! All the male guests were first led to the outer courtyard's far hall!

Su Mingyuan did not show up and just said he was handling the affairs.

Liu Yunjia, Su Qingyan and a group of maids were waiting at the second gate!

First, the maidservants greeted the ladies from each mansion and went to the second gate. Then, the mistress of the Marquis's mansion went from the corridor to Fangfei Courtyard, chatting and laughing all the way!

Walking diagonally from here is Fangfei Garden, the back garden of Xin'an Marquis Mansion!

Lady Liu Diejing of the Marquis of Changning got dressed early today. She wore a light green long skirt with an indigo jacket on the outside. The collar was decorated with periwinkle flowers and the cuffs had the same pattern, which made her look elegant!

Her hair was tied up in a bun with auspicious clouds, and she wore a pair of gold-studded and kingfisher-emerald hairpins, a gold-plated and ruby-studded flower hairpin, and green water drop pendants on her ears. Around her neck was a thin silver chain with eight-leaf peach blossoms!

The whole person looks like she is covered in jewels and gems, like a noble lady!

Su Qingling knew that she was also one of the protagonists today. Xia He combed her hair into a double spiral bun and inserted a magnolia and kingfisher hairpin into her hair.

It is also embellished with a pair of silver hairpins inlaid with flowing stones and hollowed-out clouds, and a few small lilac-colored pearl flowers, and matched with a pair of jadeite magnolia earrings!

Su Qingling wore a matching red long skirt with a light purple jacket with a pattern of fish playing with golden lotus.

After thinking about it, she decided to prepare the sky-blue organdy long skirt and the lilac-colored jacket with a magpie climbing a branch pattern that Nanny Zhou had prepared for her.

This time, even though she went back to her parents' home, she still felt uneasy!

Su Qingyan has failed again and again, and her most important opponent has not been defeated by her yet. I guess she will not give up!

Even if it's disgusting, she will find a way to disgust herself!

The Changning Marquis's Mansion had three carriages prepared, one for the Marquis's wife and two daughters-in-law, and one for the two daughters!

To show her closeness, Liu Diejing waited for her two daughters-in-law to come out, then smiled and said:

"Ling'er, today is your mother's family's banquet, you must behave well when you go, and don't bring disgrace to our Changning Marquis' Mansion!"

Su Qingling smiled faintly:

"Don't worry, mother. I'll keep this in mind!"

Xie Yinyin, who was standing aside, was about to say a few more sarcastic remarks, but her stepmother gave her a cold glance and she shut up instantly!

Although she was unhappy, she still managed to smile and got on the carriage behind her. Xie Yinyun followed closely, and the two maids also got on! Caixia, Ruyi and Xiahe also squeezed into this carriage!

Today, the sky is clear and the clouds are light, and the summer solstice has passed. Fortunately, the scorching sun is considerate and has taken a day off!

There’s a gentle breeze, and it doesn’t feel too hot even though it’s almost June!

The three mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law sitting in the carriage were silent and the atmosphere was a bit awkward!

Also getting on the car were Mother Wu, Chunlan and Ruxin!

The three men each served their own masters, and there was a basin of ice in the middle, so the carriage was not very stuffy!

Liu Diejing looked at her eldest daughter-in-law who said nothing, just sat there, and occasionally took a sip of the rose dew handed to her by the maid, feeling quite dissatisfied!

Looking at her second daughter-in-law, she was just sitting there quietly, which made her speechless!

He cleared his throat and said with a calculating look:

"Ling'er, your father should be promoted this time, right?"

Su Qingling said calmly: "My daughter-in-law is stupid. She hasn't seen her father for three years and she really doesn't know the situation!"

Liu Diejing was anxious, thinking of saying a few more things, and smiled kindly:

"Alas, you silly child, you should go to your mother's house more often in the future. Seeing your husband's current status is embarrassing, it's not nice to be laughed at by others!"

Seeing that Su Qingling didn't respond, he continued to talk to himself:

"I heard from your father-in-law that your father will definitely be promoted when he returns to the capital this time. You should talk to your father and ask him to help him change his position. It's really embarrassing for a seventh-rank official to become an eighth-rank official when he returns to the capital!"

Su Qingling looked up, and just when Liu Diejing thought her daughter-in-law was going to say something, she saw her smile again, just holding the teacup and sipping it seriously, and didn't say anything else!

The Marquis's wife was rejected and was very upset. She looked at her second daughter-in-law, who was sitting aside like a wooden stick, and couldn't help feeling dizzy!

The carriage swayed for an hour before arriving at the gate of Xin'an Marquis Mansion!

When I got off the car, I saw that there were already several carriages parked in front, and servants were leading the coachmen back and forth to the waiting rest area!

Moists welled up in Su Qingling's eyes. This was the first time she had returned to the Marquis' Mansion in three years. Everything was so familiar, making her blood boil!

She walked in a hurry. If she hadn't considered etiquette, she would have rushed ahead of her mother-in-law!

When he was not far from the second gate, he saw a beautiful woman in her forties chatting and laughing with someone. The woman with beautiful eyes and elegant yet proud temperament was none other than his own mother, Liu Yunjia, the wife of the Marquis of Xinyang!

Liu Yunjia seemed to have sensed something. Her eyes were originally heading towards the door, and now she was staring blankly at the woman wearing a hairpin and having a dignified and elegant temperament. She apologized to the female guest next to her and took two quick steps forward!

Liu Diejing walked forward with a smile on her face and said a lot of polite words, and although Liu Yunjia also seemed to be smiling, she seemed a little distant!

His eyes involuntarily looked at his daughter!

After welcoming people into Fangfei Garden, Su Qingling discovered that quite a few people were already here!

Liu Yunjia smiled from ear to ear, holding her daughter's hand, and said to the guests:

"Everyone, thank you ladies for giving us face. Today's banquet is firstly a welcome banquet for us two, and secondly... for everyone to get together. The peony flowers in my house are in full bloom, and it is the best time to enjoy the flowers!"
