Chapter 216 Chun Chun is a big liar

 When Lin Xiaoman turned around, there was a young lady who looked at her. After hearing Cui Liangchen's words, she also knew her identity and followed the two of them to give Lin Xiaoman a gift. This made Lin Xiaoman strangely uncomfortable.

Yes, when I met a young lady from such a wealthy family in the past, who would give her a look? Now I would give her a gift instead. This world is really too fantasy.

After listening to their self-introductions, Lin Xiaoman realized that these three ladies were also from the Cui Mansion. They were the ladies of Cui Zhifu's brother's family. The two who were more gorgeously dressed were the direct descendants, and the one who was more modest was the concubine.

It's just that although the way they looked at her after the ceremony was not malicious, the way they looked at her as if they were looking at some exhibit still made Lin Xiaoman feel a little uncomfortable, and she wanted to pull Lin Erhu away quickly.

Cui Liangchen said: "Yesterday I heard that the princess came to Beijing, and I was supposed to go there to pay my respects. But thinking of the long journey, I thought about visiting the princess again in a few days. I didn't expect to meet her by chance today. It's really fate.



After saying that, Cui Liangchen covered his mouth with a handkerchief and smiled, and Lin Xiaoman also laughed along with him.

Cui Meijing said: "Miss Cheng is entertaining guests at Taihe Building today. Did the princess also receive the invitation?"

Lin Xiaoman shook his head, "Not really... Miss Cheng and I don't know each other, and I don't think she would send an invitation."

After finishing speaking, Lin Xiaoman gave himself a thumbs up. Fortunately, he received it in time and didn't even open his mouth.

Although she is not ashamed of her background as a peasant girl, she still has to pretend a little bit outside, so as not to let others find out everything when she opens her mouth. When it is time to pretend, she should pretend a little bit.

Thinking of what the elders in the family had said before, now the commoner princess Huang En Zhenglong, not only should not offend her, but also try her best to make friends with her when they meet. A Miss Cui made Lin Xiaoman embarrassed and smoothed things over: "I don't know if this is Miss Cheng."

If the princess comes to Beijing, she will definitely send an invitation."

Lin Xiaoman smiled and said nothing, it would be better if she didn't give them away. She didn't recognize these ladies, and they were not from the same place. Why did she really go to the banquet to chat? The ladies talked about playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but she talked about farming and transplanting rice seedlings?

Even if they don't say anything on the surface, they still have to laugh at her secretly. Rather than being the butt of others' jokes, it would be more interesting to visit the capital by yourself.

What's more, the network of relationships in Beijing is complicated, and she is afraid of being accidentally pulled into the network and falling into someone else's trap.

Taihe Building is one of the two restaurants run by the imperial chef's family. It is only a few steps away. After Lin Xiaoman said goodbye to several ladies, he asked Liangcheng to take them to go shopping elsewhere.

I bought a lot of things and asked the store to deliver them directly to Princess Qingping's Mansion in Shizi Hutong.

Thanks to the emperor's deliberate efforts to build momentum, news of Princess Qingping's visit to the capital had spread. When he heard that it had been delivered to Princess Qingping's mansion, the store owner was a little enthusiastic and praised the corn and sweet potatoes made by the princess as good things.

It's a pity that it's too expensive and I didn't have the chance to try it.

Lin Xiaoman heard from the conversation that the most expensive cornmeal sold for five taels per kilogram, which was made from corn kernels that were unsuitable for cultivation after screening intact seeds. His jaw dropped.

Cornmeal is so expensive, should she go there to wholesale some cornmeal and sell it? Alas, why didn’t she realize that this was a good business earlier?

But it was just a thought. After arriving in the capital, she found that every move in the princess's mansion was being watched. What if she made too much noise and was burned as a monster?

At noon, we found a restaurant with a good reputation and ordered a few dishes. After a few bites, the siblings lost interest. If they really wanted to eat delicious food, they had better go there and just have a small barbecue, which is better than this.

There are countless delicacies around.

Well, we can expand our business in Qingping County elsewhere.

Liangcheng had a delicious meal. Originally, he didn't dare to eat at the same table as the princess's sister and brother, but the princess said that he was informal when going out and the food was too fragrant, so he couldn't help but sit down.

Fortunately, all the serving chopsticks were used, so he served a few bites of food to the princess, siblings, and then took one for himself.

But what if the princess sister and brother don’t like to eat very much?

Liangcheng took a bite. It was delicious.

In the end, he was eating alone.

After Liangcheng had eaten and drank, he wandered around for a while. Someone came over to him. When he met, he said eagerly: "Princess, Xiaolian, the emperor is planning to hold a banquet in the Queen's palace. I want to invite the princess and Xiaolian to come in tonight."

We are going to the palace for a banquet, please go back quickly and take a shower.”

The siblings did not expect that the emperor's decree would arrive so soon. It seems that he attaches great importance to Princess Qingping's Mansion and is not just talking about it.

Fortunately, when they came to look for Lin Xiaoman's sister and brother, they had already driven a carriage. The two siblings got on the carriage and drove all the way back.

When they got home, the water was ready. After taking a bath, the siblings put on beautiful clothes. Lin Erhu had nothing to do, so he sat next to Lin Xiaoman and watched the maid brought by Grandma Jin combing Lin Xiaoman's hair and makeup.

, Lin Erhu almost couldn’t recognize that she was his sister.

"Sister, you look really good dressed like this, like a fairy from heaven descending to earth."

Lin Xiaoman smiled and rolled her eyes at him. She looked good in the mirror, but it was a pity that the silver mirror was not that clear. The person reflected in the picture looked good-looking, but still somewhat deformed.

Well, send these people out later, let Erhu take a beautiful photo of himself, and then go back and develop it over there. Isn't this better than the artistic photos in the studio?

After finishing her beauty, she started to get nervous again when she thought about entering the palace and meeting the emperor and empress: That is the emperor and empress, the head of a country and the mother of a country. It was she and Lin Erhu who were exposed to the concept of equality among so many people there.

It is impossible for the emperor and queen to relax.

After all, the emperor loves exiles so much, what if he says something wrong and ends up being confiscated and exiled?

Huh? The emperor who loved to confiscate his family and send people into exile and Lu Jin who loved to let people dig mines were both very persistent people.

As soon as it got dark, a sedan came to the palace to take the siblings into the palace.

Aunt Jin followed outside the sedan and kept whispering: "After entering the palace, don't make any noise, don't look around, and be careful not to bump into the nobles in the palace. Except for the food in front of the emperor and queen, don't eat anything given by others. Especially those who look at it."

People who love kindness should be more careful..."

We kept talking until the sedan chair stopped. It turned out that the palace gate had arrived.

The guards guarding the palace gate checked the token and let them go, and the sedan was lifted up again. After entering the palace gate, the sister and brother did not dare to look openly, but they were not afraid to lift the sedan curtain and take a sneak peek.

After walking forward for another quarter of an hour, I heard Nanny Jin whispering: "Ahead is the Hall of Supreme Harmony, where the emperor and all the civil and military officials attend court. With the merits the princess has made, she may also attend court one day."

The Golden Palace has been sealed."

Lin Xiaoman calculated the time and walked for almost two-quarters of an hour from Shizi Alley to the palace gate, and another quarter of an hour after entering the palace. Liangcheng said that he could clearly see the little beast on the top of the Taihe Palace by climbing up the tree.
