The eldest princess and his wife arrived early in the morning, followed by Wang Xiu's sisters-in-law, Xinran's eldest aunt Lu Yunran, second aunt Lu Yunyuan, and Xu Yanxin invited by Lu Yunzhu.
In addition, because of Jiang Hua, Wang Xiu also posted a message to Jiang Qing.
In this way, the three little girls have company, and others don't care about them. Everyone gathers together just to watch the show, laugh, and give Lu Xinran a hug to make her happy.
Here in the front hall are Xinran's uncles and uncle Ji Yunwei.
Why do you call her uncle instead of godfather? What the eldest princess means is that if Xinran cannot be her daughter-in-law in the future, she will serve a few tables of wine and accept Xinran as her daughter. Therefore, now Xinran can only call her aunt, Ji Yunwei.
uncle.
Then there are Xinran's two uncles, as well as Xu Xiao, Yao Yu, and Huang Shaoyu who came uninvited.
The Floating Dream Garden was given to the female family members to listen to the opera and drink tea, and their male guests gathered in the front hall to chat and laugh. Although this was a birthday party for Xin Ran, it was similar to a family banquet. The people who came were all very familiar people, and everyone was very familiar with it.
Happy.
However, after a while, Qian Liangcai came back to report that the third lady from Taishi Mansion was here.
Lu Yunhong was not surprised when he heard this, and just asked Qian Liangcai to send Mei Min to Floating Dream Garden.
Qian Liangcai went down to lead the way. At this time, Xu Xiao came out and said, "I also revealed some news to Gao Xian yesterday. He might also come later."
Lu Yunhong said calmly: "It doesn't matter whether he comes or not, he can't make any trouble by himself? But..."
Lu Yunhong didn't know what he thought of, so he smiled and didn't say any more.
But Xu Xiao saw a flash of light in his eyes, as if he was planning something?
Even ten Gao Xian would not be Lu Yunhong's opponent. He was just curious, where would the Mei family and Gao Xian go?
…
The Garden of Dreams has not been so lively for a long time, and there were two tables under the stage.
Several of Wang Xiu's sisters-in-law and the eldest princess were at the table.
At the other table were the three sisters Lu Yunran, Xu Yanxin, and Jiang Qing.
Wang Xiu would occasionally get up to give orders to the stewards. She had a place at both tables, so she could sit anywhere she wanted. And because the two tables were close to each other, Wang Xiu simply sat in the middle, so anyone could talk to her.
Everyone was talking and laughing, and they were having fun. Suddenly Rongrong came back and said in a low voice: "Madam, the third young lady of the Mei family is here."
Although Wang Xiu was a little surprised, he quickly asked: "Where are you?"
Rongrong said: "The one who came from the garden is almost here."
Wang Xiu glanced at Yun Ran's table and said, "Okay, take my bowls and chopsticks away, I'll sit over here."
After saying that, he sat down directly next to the eldest princess.
The eldest princess saw Rongrong coming back and forth, and then left in a hurry, as if to pick up someone, so she asked, "Who else is coming?"
Wang Xiudao: "It's Mei Min. I don't know where I heard the news. I didn't leave a message for her."
After all, my daughter's birthday party is a trivial matter, and the post has already been sent to Mei Mansion, so it is really a bit of a fuss.
The eldest princess said: "In the capital, it is common for such news to leak out, but most people know that it is a family dinner and will not come to join in the fun."
Unless... there's something else.
Wang Xiu smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, anyway, there are only female relatives in Floating Dream Garden, so there won't be any trouble."
The eldest princess listened and nodded.
Soon, Mei Min came.
The Garden of Floating Dreams is very large, and the stage is even wider.
The hollow screen below was used as a partition. The play had already begun and the stage was bustling with activity.
Of course, it's the same thing off stage as well.
All the royal ladies were sitting around Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess. Not far away stood a dozen maids, and several housekeepers were making tea and cracking melon seeds in the back.
On the other side, Lu Yunzhu saw Mei Min coming, and quickly stood up and waved to her, leading her towards her seat.
Mei Min thought Wang Xiu was not there at first, but after sitting down, she realized that Wang Xiu was opposite. She held her daughter in her arms, weighed it, and said with a look of helplessness: "If I had known that you also like to listen to operas, I would have
I've asked someone to pick you up."
"By the way, are you the only one here? Where is your mother?"
Mei Min's face turned red. She knew Wang Xiu did it on purpose. But she would not be angered. She suppressed her dissatisfaction and said calmly: "Mom didn't receive the post. I'm sorry to come. I miss Xinran."
, so I couldn’t help but come over and take a look.”
Wang Xiudao: "Xinran's father doesn't want any posts when he goes to your Mei family. Your mother is really out of touch."
"But it's good that you can come. I will send someone to take you back later."
Mei Min's face was burning, and she could no longer say sarcastic words. Because Wang Xiu reminded her that when Lu Yunhong went to Mei Mansion, the Mei family did not send anyone to notify them in advance. And it was because of their negligence that Lu Yunhong was
He walked back by himself. This incident brought great shame to the Mei family, and the initiator was Mei Min.
The rest of the people don't know, and it can be said to be the fault of the servants of the Mei family. But Mei Min knows very well that Wang Xiu must know the inside story, so Wang Xiu also knows what she did to Lu Yunhong?
She shouldn't have come to today's banquet, because Wang Xiu would probably embarrass her. Sure enough, as soon as she arrived, Wang Xiu couldn't wait to give her a blow.
But this was what she expected, but now that she's here, she can't go back like this.
So Mei Min stood up, bowed slightly towards Wang Xiufu, and said, "Thank you very much, Mrs. Lu."
Wang Xiu nodded slightly and said nothing more.
Just like that, Mei Min sat next to Lu Yunzhu, and on the other side was Jiang Qing.
Jiang Qing, who had long seen that there was some kind of undercurrent between Mei Min and Wang Xiu, couldn't help but think of the incident where Lu Yunhong went to Mei's house. It seemed that there was a hidden secret in it, and it was also related to Mei Min.
But these are none of her business. She knows that Wang Xiu is a very powerful person, and there is no need for others to meddle in others' affairs. She doesn't know.
Lu Yunran told his sister to take good care of Mei Min, then turned around and took Lu Yunyuan away, saying he was going to the toilet.
Lu Yunzhu held her forehead with a headache. The two sisters were so bad that they left the reception of guests to her after they got married. The next time she goes to their house to be a guest, I will see if she doesn't ask her two sisters to entertain her well.
Xu Yanxin saw Lu Yunzhu's embarrassment, so she took the initiative and said: "What kind of play does Sister Mei like to listen to? Why don't you click on it first and wait, and you will sing it in a while."
Lu Yunzhu said quickly: "Yes, yes, yes, tell them to bring the playbook."
After a while, someone brought a playbook. Mei Min looked at it. They were all plays she had never heard of, but the names were novel.
She handed the storybook to Jiang Qing and asked, "What did you order?"
Jiang Qing said: "I ordered "Travel with You"."
After hearing this, Mei Min ticked the following line "Qingmen Yin".
Jiang Qing glanced at Mei Min in surprise, wondering if she did it on purpose or why she chose this?
The introduction to this scene is: The sky is lonely, like a shadow following each other. Although there is a beautiful shadow, it is like a person in a dream.
The profound meaning is: In the end, my hands are empty and I can’t hold anything.
It was a good thing that Mei Min didn't ask. He first asked what she ordered, and then chose "Qingmen Yin". Unknowingly, Jiang Qing felt like she was being targeted.
