205. Chapter 205 205, Princess Rongshang 4
"I'm sorry, my father passed away a few years ago." Lu Ziyuan shook her head, but she was thinking secretly in her heart that if she wanted to see Lu Dongming, she might be able to see him if he just put a knife on his neck.
"It's a pity that we met so late." An Luojun sighed regretfully, but there seemed to be something in his words.
Lu Ziyuan, however, seemed a little confused. She and Lu Lan looked at each other and said nothing. At this time, the servants of Bai Mansion came up and saluted Princess Rongshang and Prince Luo Jun, and then said to Mr. Bai.
The troupe is ready.
After hearing this, Mr. Bai invited everyone to listen to the opera. Lu Ziwan knew that in this dynasty, it was the best way to celebrate a girl's birthday by inviting an opera troupe to perform for a whole day. Merchants did not want to be as particular as officials.
There is no special partition between men and women in the play, but the men sit at their own table, and there are many women, so it is divided into many tables.
Lu Ziyuan originally wanted to drag Lu Lan to a corner, but when she saw so many guests coming to the Bai Mansion, she guessed that Bai Anlan didn't have time to greet her, so she thought of going to the corner to rest and wait until sunset to say goodbye and leave. Unexpectedly,
, just as the few people walked out of the hall, Bai Anlan grabbed the two of them and refused to let go, saying that they would sit together later.
Baifu is indeed the richest man in the town. The luxury of Baifu is probably not even comparable to that of the rich in the county. The stage alone takes up an entire large yard.
Lu Ziwan was a little confused about the direction in the winding corridor. It wasn't until Bai Anlan stopped that she saw an actor with makeup already standing on the stage not far away.
Familiar with the appearance of the stage, the seats for the guests are arranged in the octagonal pavilion leading to the corridor.
The pavilion is surrounded by a small lake full of lotus flowers. However, after the lotus blooming season, all that can be seen on the lake now are the withered yellow lotus leaves, and occasionally one or two green leaves, which seem to be from the lakeside.
It fell from the willow tree.
"Sister Ziyuan, Sister Lan, cousin, let's sit here!" Bai Anlan pulled the three of them towards the front seat, and waved to Mrs. Bai and Master Bai, "Mom and dad! Come quickly!"
"Let your mother accompany you. Dad will be busy with other things later." Mr. Bai shook his head at Bai Anlan with a smile, and walked out of the pavilion when he saw everyone was seated.
Because of her status, Princess Rongshang was the first to sit down, and she also sat in the most distinguished position. On her left was Madam Bai, on her right was Bai Anlan, and after Bai Anlan were Lu Ziwan and Lu Lan.
There are only a few people at this table.
There is already a lot of food on the table, probably thinking that everyone can have a meal while watching a show. The dishes on the table are all very exquisite, and you can tell at a glance that they are delicious dishes with full color, flavor and taste. However, even if you are facing the beautiful wine at this moment,
Lu Ziwan was not in the mood to move her chopsticks. After all, there was a princess sitting at this table. The princess didn't move her chopsticks, and the common people couldn't move even if they starved to death.
The sound of musical instruments, such as the melodious sound of the reed, was already coming from the stage, accompanied by the actor's sonorous tune, singing words that Lu Ziyuan could not understand at all, babbling and waving her long sleeves.
Mrs. Bai looked around and asked the mother-in-law behind her, "Why are the aunts not here? Today is An Lan's birthday party. Didn't the master say last night that the aunts would accompany the eldest lady to listen to the show today?"
