The old lady in charge stood in the hall waiting with a cane.
The two nuns beside her advised: "Old madam, please go to the backyard and wait. The eldest young master and the young master will wait for the guests at the door for you!"
Mrs. Yin's brows, nose and eyes were all wrinkled: "Oh, if I can count on them, today's banquet will not be wasted!"
She just let it go in despair, hoping that her two grandchildren would become more sensible.
As a result of this release, the Xuanguo Palace became increasingly deserted in the past ten years. Not only were there no female relatives, but even the banquets that had been scheduled on certain days were gradually cancelled.
A few years ago, there were still relatives and friends coming to enjoy the plum blossoms. However, at the beginning of winter last year, not a single visitor came to the Duke of Xuan's residence.
And what about her two precious grandchildren?
A man is busy mourning his deceased wife who has been dead for three years. In addition to dealing with court affairs every day, he returns home to be with his only son;
The other one is immersed in studying and does not hear anything outside the window...
If she hadn't been so ruthless as to go to Xiaoqin's palace during the New Year's Eve banquet, she might even have had her granddaughter-in-law snatched away by someone else.
Fortunately, now, when the future granddaughter-in-law learned that she was asked to come to the Duke of Xuan Kingdom earlier, she was so frightened that she immediately ran to Shuiqin Pavilion to study. She would rather study piano and dance than accompany her, an old woman.
I heard that he fell into the water during the assessment and almost caught a cold and fell ill... It must be because he disliked the Duke Xuan's mansion which was so deserted now that there were not many birds.
So this year’s Beginning of Winter Plum Blossom Feast, she struggled to organize.
She also took care of it herself, just to see how many people could appreciate her as an old woman, and also to let the girl from Xiaoqin's palace take a good look at what Xuanguo's palace looked like.
"Don't even think about being lazy today, just stay here and wait for the guests!"
"I have given you a comfortable rest in the past ten years, but you can't bear to stand like this for a while?"
The two nuns quickly shook their heads: "Old madam, don't be angry, the slaves will never touch their butts to the bench today!"
"That's right, the slaves will be waiting well today, and they won't leave any of the guests alone..."
However, after finishing speaking, the old man turned around and looked around: "Hey, where is A Ming? Where are A Ze and others? Did they go to the study to read again?"
Seeing that the old lady was about to stamp her feet in anger again, the two maids hurriedly came forward and said: "No, no, please don't be angry, old lady. The eldest young master took the young master to the gate to wait for his mother-in-law. The second young master heard that his friend had already
I’m here, so I’m waiting at the door!”
Old Mrs. Yin breathed a sigh of relief: "Oh, so what did I say?"
If she hadn't been struggling to organize this plum appreciation banquet, how could those two brats take the initiative to go out to meet people!
It's really hard for her.
It was probably Chen Lanqin's incident that made the people in Xiaoqin's palace feel quite embarrassed, so Chen Lanqin's carriage arrived quite early. When Yin Ze was greeting friends at the door, Chen Lanqin had already got off the carriage.
Princess Xiaoqin also walked down, looking at the rather introverted Yin Ze with complicated thoughts. Just as she was about to speak, a joyful voice interrupted her.
"Hey, Miss Chen, I didn't expect to meet you here?"
Qin Jiaoxi happily ran to Chen Lanqin and said bravely: "Do you still remember me?"
Although these words came out, it seemed like she was reminding others of her help, but now she really had no choice but to ask for help from Chen Lanqin!
