"Oh, this Lingyang Marquis Mansion is really magnificent."
In front of the gate of Lingyang Houfu, several carriages stopped. The well-dressed ladies and young gentlemen got off the carriages and went to Lingyang Houfu. Some of them stood at the door and stopped to chat when they met familiar people.
The conversation was very pleasant.
Today, the Marquis of Lingyang held a grand banquet at his house to entertain all the aristocratic families in the capital. All the people who came were the famous aristocratic families in the capital.
"The Marquis of Lingyang accompanied the ancestors on the expedition in the early years and made great achievements in battle. Later, he was stationed in Lingnan for more than ten years. Now he has finally returned to the capital. This reception banquet was ordered by the emperor."
Several noble ladies were chatting there, watching the rewards flow into the Lingyang Houfu.
"Hey, there are three heirs in the Lingyang Hou family?"
"Three sons and two daughters, only the youngest pair is still unmarried."
"It's a good chance that we can see each other at the banquet today!"
"That's exactly what you are saying. The Marquis of Lingyang is now a new rich man in the capital, a popular figure in front of the Holy Emperor. Your little girl has just gotten hairpins this year, so you should hurry up."
"..."
As the ladies gathered in groups of three or three and were talking, they saw an exquisite and luxurious carriage parked at the door.
This carriage is much larger than the carriages present, and the wheels are wider and heavier. It looks very stable. The horse pulling the carriage is tall and strong, with smooth and black hair. It is rare at first glance.
's good horse.
Everyone was a little curious about whose carriage and horse this was. It was so luxurious and luxurious. When a beautiful woman in rich and bright clothes came out of the carriage, the smiles on the faces of most of the ladies present froze.
Some noble ladies hurriedly took their children and walked quickly to Lingyang Houfu.
"It's Xiao Yurong, hurry up, hurry up!"
"Why did you forget her? The Xiao family and Marquis Lingyang are old friends. This Xiao Yurong will definitely come to the banquet."
"Be careful and don't provoke Mrs. Xiao. Otherwise, even at the palace banquet, I can spit you to death!"
"Mrs. Xiao, she married into the Wen family. It's Mrs. Wen."
"It doesn't matter whether she is Xiao or Wen, she should stay away anyway. Her precious daughter was bullied in the red maple forest paddock a few days ago. She directly brought people to the door and beat up the young masters who bullied her daughter.
What a lesson! Even their parents were given a lesson, it was really scary."
"After all, she is from the Xiao family. She is a fierce and domineering girl."
Everyone gathered together and watched with fear and curiosity as Xiao Yurong got off the carriage, and then stood in front of the carriage and spoke softly, "My dear, we're here. I woke up half an hour earlier than usual and am still so sleepy.
Let’s have lunch first and then take a rest.”
"Be obedient, the banquet will be held later, but we don't want Mrs. Lingyang to wait for us."
The ladies looked at Xiao Yurong talking softly, which was completely different from her previous arrogant look.
"Miss, we have arrived at Lingyang Houfu."
Yuzhu and Xiang Jin looked like they were still asleep, and looked at each other, ready to carry Wen Jiaojiao down.
Wen Jiaojiao opened one eye and glanced at Yuzhu Xiangjin, "Fengxin wouldn't rush me. If she were here, she would definitely let me sleep a little longer."
Yuzhu smiled helplessly: "Then now that Feng Xin is not here, the young lady can only feel aggrieved."
Less than half a month has passed since the last lakeside lantern festival. Fengxin was injured on the night of the riot. Wen Jiaojiao gave her a holiday and she was still raising her at home. Aster went back to her parents' home to visit her who was sick.
As her aunt, only Yuzhu and Xiang Jin were with her.
Wen Jiaojiao has been staying at the house for half a month. Today is a banquet held by Lingyang Marquis Mansion. Her mother was there early in the morning to prepare gifts and clothes and jewelry for her that she was rummaging around for.
Ever since so many bad things happened to her, Xiao Yurong moved directly into her yard and stayed with her every day, fearing that something would happen to her again.
Don't care about her cheap father and concubine, just think about how to take care of her with Aunt Meng every day.
Wen Jiaojiao has lived with her grandma since she was a child, and later with her uncle and aunt. She was basically given food and clothing, and she was not cared about much else. It was the first time for her to be cared for and controlled by her relatives. She felt novel and happy, and she didn't feel that
It's annoying to be controlled.
Xiao Yurong, not to mention other things, as a mother, she really exceeded Wen Jiaojiao's ideal and imagined mother by far.
She had the feeling that she would really be spoiled and spoiled.
Wen Jiaojiao lazily came out of the carriage. Xiao Yurong watched the little ancestor finally come out, hugged her down, pinched her cheek gently, "Okay, okay, little lazy bug, we'll meet again later."
Did you sleep well?"
Wen Jiaojiao half-squinted her eyes and leaned into Xiao Yurong's arms. Xiao Yurong ignored the noble ladies from the aristocratic families and carried her precious daughter half-hug to Lingyang Houfu.
"Don't tell me, this Xiao Yurong is really good at giving birth. Although she only gave birth to one daughter, this daughter surpassed most of the girls in this family."
"It is true that the baby is very good-looking, but no matter how good-looking the baby is, he is still a sick man who needs medicine all the time."
"Shh! Keep your voice down, you're going to die! Xiao Yurong hates it when others arrange for her daughter."
"I didn't plan it. Her daughter has had asthma since she was a child. I saw her daughter having an asthma attack at a banquet a few years ago. She almost didn't recover. I heard that she still has heart problems. No matter how well she raises her, she can't stop it.
I can’t help but God wants to take people away.”
"Say a few words, don't let her hear you."
The boy waiting at Lingyang Houfu saw Wenfu's carriage coming and immediately went in to report it. At this time, Lingyang Houfu's wife Qin had already come out with her youngest son.
"Hey, Yurong, you're finally here, I've been waiting for you!"
When Wen Jiaojiao heard the clear voice, he looked towards the visitor and saw that the lady in front of him had a beautiful face, heroic features, and spoke in a clear and resonant voice. She looked like a very majestic lady.
Xiao Yurong said to Wen Jiaojiao: "My dear, this is the Marquis of Lingyang that I told you. She is my best friend. When your grandfather and I were still outside the customs, we were often together. You
Yeah, you can call her Aunt Frost."
When Wen Jiaojiao came, she heard Xiao Yurong tell her many stories about the Lingyang Marquis Qin.
Qin's maiden name is Qin Weishuang. She is a few years older than Xiao Yurong. Her father is also a general and has lived outside the customs since she was a child. She and her two uncles were childhood sweethearts in Lingyang. According to her mother, her elder brother
My uncle once liked her, but in the end he still couldn't win over Lingyang Hou.
When the Qin family got married, Xiao Yurong was only fourteen or fifteen years old. The two sisters had been together since childhood, and they were both daughters of military commanders. They had straightforward personalities, so they naturally got along well together.
