Ning Yujin never thought that the "surprise" Su Yuehua mentioned would be so big.
When she went to ask the eldest lady for instructions, the eldest lady was also surprised: "Did Miss Su give you a letter?"
Ning Yujin nodded and showed the letter to the eldest lady for review.
The eldest lady scanned it and then said: "Since you have been invited to come over, then come with me."
Ning Yujin was immediately surprised.
She went to Prime Minister Su's Mansion as a guest, why did the eldest lady want her to come with her?
She suppressed the doubts in her heart and went back to ask people to inquire. Only then did she realize that the day Su Yuehua asked her to pass was Mrs. Su's fiftieth birthday, and the eldest lady would naturally also have to pass.
Ning Yujin suddenly smiled helplessly: "This girl can't write clearly what she wants to do."
This is unclear. If she went there rashly, wouldn't she be embarrassed?
After thinking about it, she asked her mistress to find a string of Buddhist beads, go to Baishanzhai, smoke them with medicine, wrap them up, and give them to Mrs. Su as a gift.
On that day, everyone in Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter suddenly became "sick", and Cuilan had to take care of the yard. Ning Yujin directly selected Peilan, Zisu, and Xiangyue from among several third-class maids to accompany her.
Prime Minister Su's residence.
The eldest lady taught her how to speak and behave along the way. Although she didn't like her very much, she still belonged to Quan Ningbo's house. Once she got out of that door, she couldn't lose the face of Quan Ningbo's house.
Ning Yujin also carefully remembered that when to say what to say and what etiquette to show to whom, they were all very particular. If you don't pay attention, you might make a mistake.
When they arrived at Prime Minister Su's house, as soon as they were welcomed in, Su Yuehua could not wait to run out to greet her.
After saluting the eldest lady, she immediately pulled Ning Yujin out of the way, jumping up and down like a little girl.
Ning Yujin was dragged by her for a long distance before she could catch her breath.
"I said Yuehua, what are you doing?"
Su Yuehua stood on tiptoes and looked around, then replied casually: "You'll know what to do in a moment."
The corner of Ning Yujin's mouth twitched: "Don't tell me, your sweetheart is coming too. You asked me to come to see my lover."
She thought about the last time Su Yuehua asked her out, and she couldn't help but have a bad feeling.
Su Yuehua curled her lips and said, "I would like to see him, but how can he have time to take care of me now? I will have to wait until he is in high school to see him again."
"High school?" Ning Yujin smiled teasingly, "You are so sure about him."
Su Yuehua immediately said boldly: "That's right, with his talent, I conservatively estimate that he is in the top 10, and it is not impossible that he reaches the top spot."
The number one scholar and the first place...
The smile on Ning Yujin's face faded a bit when she heard this. She didn't know whether what Qi Yue said at that time was just a joke or true.
If he really won the top prize and went to Quan Ningbo's house to propose marriage, how should she face Su Yuehua standing in front of her?
"Hey, what are you thinking about."
Su Yuehua waved to her and stared at her with a pair of almond eyes.
Ning Yujin twitched the corner of her mouth, smiled and shook her head: "I didn't think about anything. I just saw you looking around, I don't know what you are looking at."
"I'm watching..." Su Yuehua suddenly stopped mid-sentence and whispered, "Isn't there no surprise after all?"
"What?" Ning Yujin didn't hear her murmur clearly and couldn't help but ask.
"Oh, I'd better take you to see my mother first. She has wanted to see you for a long time!" Su Yuehua pulled Ning Yujin and started running again. The maids walked lightly when they came and went, but the two of them were the only ones who could keep up.
Like a gust of wind.
Poor Xiangyue and the two little girls, they couldn't keep up with their progress as they rushed all the way, and they were left far away.
We ran straight to the back hall, where many people were already standing densely packed.
Those ladies who were exquisitely dressed gathered together in groups, greeting each other, talking about clothes, jewelry, children, wives, or other miscellaneous things.
There were also many ladies who came with their daughters, most of whom were eleven or twelve years old. They were little girls, but they followed their mothers with a demure look on their faces, like little adults.
No matter what the situation is, gatherings of ladies and wives in the circle are just like a disguised blind date meeting.
Starting from this age, these ladies will be taken to various banquets, and then they will be chosen, the two families will reach an understanding, get engaged, and when they are old enough, they will get married.
Ning Yujin turned her head to look at Su Yuehua, shook her head and said with emotion: Look at her completely unworried look, she is really a phoenix girl who has no worries about getting married.
But that's right, being able to marry Prime Minister Su's daughter is a dream for many people. Who would care about her character and conduct?
Su Yuehua pulled her directly into the house, where there were many people sitting from top to bottom.
The status of someone who could sit in this room was not much different. She almost forced herself to go straight to the innermost place, led by Su Yuehua through the heavy eyes.
There are two people sitting on the upper seat.
A Ning Yujin whom I met at the Peony Party before was Mrs. Shen, Duke of Xinguo.
The other one was younger than Mrs. Shen, about forty or fifty years old. When he saw her, he quickly smiled and waved to her: "Quick, come here and let me take a look."
Mrs. Shen is a kind person, and Mrs. Su is also like a mold of Su Yuehua, cheerful and bright.
Ning Yujin glanced over and knew that they were all easy to get along with, so the time pressure was relieved a lot.
Mrs. Su took her hand, looked at her carefully, and said with emotion: "No wonder Hua'er is so boastful, he is really a wonderful person."
Mrs. Shen also smiled and said: "I have met her once and I think she is a good girl. Xuan'er also often mentions her to me."
"Haha," Mrs. Su burst out laughing immediately, "I'm all about eye contact in everything. I like whatever I like. Just like my three daughters-in-law, when I choose them, I don't care about others.
As long as she's pleasing to the eye. When I see her today, I just regret that I gave birth to one less son and couldn't marry another daughter-in-law."
Mrs. Shen immediately laughed: "You are an old and dishonest person, but you still dare to say such things."
"Is there anything you dare not say?" Mrs. Su immediately raised her eyebrows and asked, "By the way, isn't your Jingzhi not married yet? Just as it happens, we have it ready here."
Ning Yujin looked at the two people with some embarrassment. She didn't know why they talked about her marriage before she said a word.
Su Yuehua also quickly pulled her mother's sleeves and coughed lowly.
Seeing this, Ning Yujin quickly took out her congratulatory gift to divert attention: "Old madam, I don't have anything good to give you. This string of Buddhist beads can be regarded as a token of my sincerity. I wish you
Every year has today, and every year has today."
"Okay, okay, little girl, I accept your wishes." Mrs. Su immediately took the string of Buddhist beads with a smile, and a scent of elegant medicine suddenly hit her nostrils.
She took the Buddhist beads to her nose and smelled them in surprise, and then showed it to Mrs. Shen: "Buddha beads with medicinal fragrance, this is a strange gift."
Mrs. Shen smiled and said: "This little girl is thoughtful and the things she makes are unique. Now I think I am the one celebrating the birthday."
"Don't even think about it." Mrs. Su quickly took back the string of Buddhist beads, as if she was afraid that someone would snatch them. This made everyone present laugh.
