With Shen Xingwan's return, the Shen family suddenly became bustling with people, and invitations were sent constantly. On the pretext of rest, she stayed at home and did not see any guests.
All of a sudden, the female relatives in the social circle were all discussing her, with different thoughts.
In the afternoon of that day, Shen Xingwan had just finished counting the accounts at the shop when he saw Shen Qingran walking around with a basket in his hand.
Shen Xingwan lazily raised his head and looked at her, "Why do you have time to come when you are so busy?"
Shen Qingran took out the snacks in the basket and said, "I came to you to be lazy for a while."
With a cup of tea and a few plates of snacks, the two of them sat around the fire under the cherry blossom tree outside.
"Such a leisurely boudoir life will probably be rare in the future." Shen Qingran sighed.
After getting married, you have to take care of the housework and have children, and you will no longer have such leisurely time in the boudoir.
Shen Qingran burned incense and played the piano, and the quiet sound of the piano floated out of the courtyard. Unexpectedly, the maid stopped to listen carefully, and then hurried away to go about her own business.
The two of them hung out like this all afternoon, as if they were back in the beautiful spring of Jiangnan.
Shen Qingran simply put the dinner here, and the two of them drank a few more drinks, feeling even more comfortable.
Shen Qingran finally found her mind to get down to business, "I have discussed with the eldest lady, and we have decided not to just find a name to hold a flower banquet and invite all the ladies of Yannan. You should also officially join Yannan's social circle."
Showed up."
Shen Xingwan nodded and said enthusiastically, "Then let's hold a spring banquet at the end of spring."
A few days later, the post about the spring banquet was sent to all the governments, and the ladies and ladies who received it were all eager to try it. This was Shen Xingwan's first class banquet.
The legitimate daughter of the Shen family, the future Princess Luo, and her past deeds, no one dares to underestimate this noble lady who stands at the top, and everyone is curious about her true face.
On the day of the banquet, the housekeeper's fourth young lady and Shen Qingran, along with the maids and servants, were busy going about their business. The main and side doors of Shen's mansion were open and it was extremely lively.
Shen Xingwan even sat in front of the dressing mirror early in the morning, letting a few maids mess with him.
While Ban Xia personally combed her hair into a complicated hairstyle, she muttered, "Young lady is the most beautiful today, and she must be the most beautiful."
Shen Xingwan was amused, "You are becoming more and more competitive."
The banquet was placed in the Shen family's garden, not neatly. The tables were placed according to the layout of the garden. Some were beside the stream, some among the flowers, some under the trees, and some even looming beside the rockery. Naturally,
It blends into it, making it interesting and thoughtful.
Shen Qingran and Madam Shi greeted the guests skillfully.
The banquet quickly became lively, and it was obvious that this time we were taking a more comfortable approach, without so many rules.
"This banquet is casual and interesting, and seems to be eclectic."
"Miss Shen was not born in the boudoir, and her mind is probably not comparable to that of a girl in the boudoir."
"The woman who can make the cold King Luo fall in love must have her own extraordinary qualities."
"I heard that she is often outside, but I don't know what she is like..."
Everyone's topic basically still revolves around Shen Xingwan, with curiosity, speculation and conjecture.
Several noble ladies from aristocratic families were sitting at the same table, listening quietly to everyone's discussion.
"Don't let people down. When she came to the limelight, she suppressed us all."
Another person smiled generously and said, "The things she has done are beyond our reach."
Although they have good reputations and talents, they are just trapped in a boudoir, which is just a bargaining chip for them to marry and form a marriage.
For a moment, everyone felt sad.
Suddenly, the banquet became quiet, and everyone looked at the entrance to the garden.
A woman in purple clothes walked forward with light steps, her delicate eyes did not show any fragility, but revealed a bit of killing and decisive aura, and the cold aura from her body rushed towards her face.
It is indeed different from any boudoir woman, mysterious and deep, and people can't help but explore.
Shen Xingwan walked up to the main seat with a smile on his face, "I'm late. I hope everyone has a good time today."
After the simple opening remarks, Shen Xingwan raised his glass first, and everyone joined him in the toast.
She's not the talkative type, so just have fun at the party.
Due to her momentum, the banquet was a bit quiet for a while, and no one dared to speak up to build momentum.
There was a young daughter from a military attache's family who had been very proud since she was a child and was extremely curious about her.
She said with bright eyes, "Miss Shen, have you been to Mobei? I heard that it is a city of mercenaries..."
Mrs. Jiang wanted to cover her daughter's mouth, for fear that Shen Xing would be blamed for mentioning these things.
Shen Xingwan looked at the dashing little girl and said, "You are the young lady from Vice General Jiang's family, right?"
Jiang Ying nodded happily, "I am Jiang Yingying."
"Of course I have been. Liuying was born in Mobei." Shen Xingwan held the wine glass and told calmly, "It is the freest and cruelest place there. It is indeed interesting. But for ordinary people, it may be difficult to escape intact. Fun but dangerous."
Jiang Yingying was all excited when she heard this, "Miss Shen, can you tell me something about Mobei?"
That was the place she longed for most, free and fun.
Mrs. Jiang glared at her daughter so hard that she wanted to faint, and Shen Xingwan started talking softly.
Jiang Yingying listened attentively, and Shen Xingwan instantly became the person she admired most in her heart.
After Jiang Yingying opened her mouth, the other girls also boldly talked to Shen Xingwan.
Shen Xingwan almost always answers. Those who are interested will say a few more words, and those who are not interested will simply skip it.
Soon everyone discovered how knowledgeable and knowledgeable Shen Xingwan was. She could talk to you about poetry, songs, court rules, and folklore, and about the scenery of various places. No matter what you said to her, she could talk to you.
This is probably because I have traveled many roads, visited many places, and seen many scenery.
Shen Xingwan's vision and style are not limited to the back house. She is an interesting person.
The banquet ended in a relaxed atmosphere, and after seeing off the guests, the fourth young lady smiled and said, "You two sisters, please rest, and leave the rest to me."
"Sister-in-law, thank you for your hard work. Let's go and rest first."
"Go ahead, go ahead."
Shen Qingran joked, "After today, your reputation will spread throughout Yannan."
"This kind of banquet is really tiring." Shen Xingwan said tiredly.
"This is just the beginning, you should adapt to this life as soon as possible." Shen Qingran said.
Shen Xingwan took a sip of the solution soup, "Suddenly I felt that marrying Fu Jingchao was not so good."
With his status, she was destined to have no leisure time after marrying him.
Shen Qingran joked with her for a few more words and went back to rest.
Shen Xingwan sighed before going to bed, "The salty fish life in my dream seems to be completely leaving me."
Fat Meow said from the side, "It feels so good to be powerful, what a waste of time."
