The sound of the bronze chime and the ceremony began.

Xie Tu and Gao Ying took the tray and stepped forward. Next to them, a well-dressed maid uncovered the gauze on the tray, revealing the jewelry prepared by the Xie family inside.

When the things in the tray that Xie Tu was holding were exposed, the people who saw it couldn't help but exclaim.

I saw a set of three-piece headdresses on it, with a timbered gourd inlaid ruby ​​and a southern bead style. The shape is unique, the gems are transparent, and the craftsmanship is even more exquisite. When you look at it, you will know that it is not an ordinary product, especially the ruby ​​in the middle of the crown, which is pure and flawless, and is definitely not much cheaper.

On the contrary, the three pieces in Gao Ying's tray on the other side seem much inferior. Although they are red gold inlaid and filigree craftsmanship, the ladies present have already developed a pair of fiery eyes on jewelry, and they can distinguish the value of these two trays at a glance.

Some people were surprised that this bead that came back from the people was so popular.

Some people also think it is clear that it is a kind of person after all. After all, it has been wandering outside for so many years. It is easy to come back, so naturally I have to make good compensation. On such a day, it is a way to clear the name of this girl Xie Si.

Only the Xie family were surprised, and the old lady looked at Qi in surprise. Who knew that Qi was also surprised.

This is the owner's business, and the person watching the ceremony just keeps what he sees in his heart.

Xie Songhua and Xie Shuhua completed the three-pronged hairpin ceremony together with Mrs. Gao and Mrs. Zhao. Finally, the two sisters wore hairpin and large-sleeved long skirts with top and bottom skirts, and once again came out to salute the elders present.

This is the completion of the coming-of-age ceremony of women in this era.

After this etiquette, it was time to attend the banquet. Since Xie Songhua and Xie Shuhua agreed to entertain relatives and friends with Qi, it was naturally inconvenient to wear such clothes and wander around. The two sisters went to their own house to change their clothes.

Dingxiang then had the chance to say, "The hairpin with the tired gourd was clearly appreciated by the Queen a few days ago. Why did she use it to add hairpins to the girl without saying a word? And the hairpin and hairpin were obviously given by the hairpin, where did the hairpin and hairpin come from?"

Aunt Lan had already learned about the incident from others, so she followed in, "Girl, the girl fell into the water, but it was not just the Queen who sent the things. Today, I am afraid I will offend the Imperial Concubine."

Not half of the ladies in the capital came, but one-third were there.

In such a way, the headdress rewarded by the Empress was used to add hairpins, but the imperial concubine was rewarded with no sign. What would the Gao family think if it was spread?

Her set and Xie Shuhua's set are very eye-catching. If you are interested, you will know that it is Si Zhenfang's craftsmanship after a little attention.

It will be heard from Concubine Gao until tomorrow.

Xie Songhua ignored their words, so Bitao combed himself with a slightly steady bun, put on some makeup, and then said lightly: "If you don't offend today, there will always be times when you offend it."

Aunt Lan and Dingxiang couldn't understand what they meant for a while, and Xie Songhua had stepped up the threshold again.

Just as he had just finished cleaning up, Xie Songhua had already gone to the banquet, and Mrs. Zhao was pulling her to talk.

"The old lady was joking. It was because the fourth sister accidentally fell into the palace that the empress gave those things to shock her. How could the younger generation eat this?"

Xie Shuhua's smile on her face was gentle and timid, and she seemed extremely well-behaved, "Old Madam, don't you know that my fourth sister grew up outside, she is prone to nature and innocent and natural.

I admire the Empress even more deeply. I often hear her talk about it during this period! The things that the Empress sent her were even more precious, otherwise I would not have been deliberately trying to use the things that the Empress gave to her to add hairpins."

Mrs. Zhao smiled with satisfaction and said, "You sisters are all good!"

Mrs. Gao at the corner of the eaves had a little resentment on her face and turned to look at Gao Ying, "I'm telling you right. The things from the four girls are really appreciated by the Queen."

Gao Ying sneered, "I have never seen any reward from my superiors, but I have divided it up! What is there in the Empress Palace in the Aunt Palace? What is there in the Aunt Palace? Some of the Aunt Palace, but even the Empress may not have it!"

"Be careful!" Mrs. Gao scolded quietly when she heard this, but she didn't feel that there was anything wrong with her daughter's words.

The queen's sick body had long lost the favor of the emperor. Even as the empress of the main palace, the emperor would only go to Kunning Palace on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month to meet the Mao.

Apart from position, what else can the queen compare with the concubine who gave birth to two sons?

Xie Si is such a fool, she is really shallow in her eyes.

When Xie Songhua returned to the banquet and was entertaining guests with Qi, he found that Mrs. Gao's eyes had become faint, and it was not as warm as before.

Is this... Xie Shuhua started to act?

She looked calm and was still with Qi's family, doing things according to Qi's family's assignment.

The two most important guests today are Mrs. Gao and Mrs. Zhao. The two sisters are naturally the main guests of the two.

Xie Songhua was assigned more to serve Mrs. Zhao, and Xie Shuhua was following Mrs. Gao.

Before the matter was confirmed, Qi did not dare to be too obvious, and occasionally exchanged each other.

Seeing Xie Songhua so warmly in front of Mrs. Zhao, Mrs. Gao felt even more angry and determined that Xie Songhua had already chosen to come to the prince.

I just didn't bother to look at Xie Songhua more and just talked to my daughter.

However, Gao Ying and Xie Shuhua were able to chat, so they went along with each other.

After lunch, I went up to Xiaoxiang Mountain to listen to the opera.

This is also a small idea designed by Xiejia Garden. This small fragrant mountain is scattered on a small hillside. The hillside is surrounded by water. A stage is set up on the water surface not far away, and there is a water pavilion below.

If there is a large banquet at home, the male guest can listen to the opera in the waterfront below, and the female guest can see clearly in the small fragrant mountain on the hillside, and hear the ethereal smell with the sound of water.

Especially in autumn, there is a short maple forest under the hillside, and the red leaves are dyed, which is also a rare sight.

Mrs. Gao then walked up the steps with her daughter, when she heard a big maid asking two little maids, "Let this curtain beneath, this is Mrs. Zhao's seat. The fourth girl said, Mrs. Zhao has a headache, so it's not easy to make the wind blow. Please be careful."

Gao Ying curled her lips and said, "I really don't know who is so arrogant? It's not necessarily so thoughtful to entertain guests. I'm quite capable of asking for people! I don't think about it. Even if I can really marry the prince, I'm just a concubine! I'm so obsessed with the position of a concubine, and I really don't know how to say it!"

Gao Ying's words were actually very ugly. As a noble girl, she was so unruly that she was a guest outside, but Mrs. Gao herself was full of annoyance and was too lazy to talk about her girl.

But while watching the show, Xie Songhua poured another cup of tea on himself. If it weren't for the years of qi cultivation, Mrs. Gao would have turned against him on the spot.

Fortunately, Xie Songhua was still dealing well, so he immediately apologized and took Mrs. Gao to change his clothes in person.
