Ning Yujin lowered her head and said, neither humble nor arrogant: "Don't worry, mother, my daughter is fine."
The eldest lady won't care if something happens to her. She can make Ning Yuning embarrassed at the Peony Party. This is the point.
When she heard that Ning Yujin was willing to go, a hint of joy appeared on her face, and she immediately agreed: "Since it's okay, I'll have someone take you there in a moment."
"Thank you, mother."
Ning Yujin saw off the eldest lady and her group, and then she lost her expression of sadness and anger, and a playful smile emerged from the corner of her mouth.
Xiangyue decisively closed the courtyard door, and her complicated eyes fell on Ning Yujin: "Miss, you are already like this, and you still want to go to the Peony Club?"
Although they hoped she could go, with her current sick appearance, His Highness Prince Ding would definitely not like her if she went, so they might as well not go.
Ning Yujin stood up straight, stretched out her legs and feet, patted her cheeks, and smiled like a flower at the two of them: "Then what do you think of this look?"
"Miss, you are just pretending!" Xiangqiao opened her mouth wide and circled around Ning Yujin twice before confirming that this was the weak patient who could not even stand steady.
Xiangyue also imitated Ning Yujin, reaching out and slapping her forehead: "What a brain!"
This person in their family is usually a master at pretending to be sick. Why was she so anxious that she didn't think of this problem?
Ning Yujin turned around and went into the house to change clothes: "Since Ning Yuning attaches great importance to this peony party, then I will go and make a fuss for her."
She has a weird temper. It would be better if Ning Yuning didn't cause this incident. But when she thought of the arrangements she would make to stop herself from going to Peony, hey, she still had to go.
"Then Madam Zhao and Aunt Zhao..." Xiangyue followed closely, still a little worried.
After all, she was the one who tore up the clothes, and she deliberately placed the jewelry there. And the second lady’s hosta was indeed taken by Xiangqiao.
If we dig deeper into this, wouldn't it be true that none of them can escape?
Ning Yujin waved her hands and said calmly, "It doesn't matter. The eldest lady and Aunt Zhao can fight for any reason, not to mention that this time both people get the loot. Aunt Zhao must feel that the eldest lady is giving
She set a trap and deliberately plotted against her. Now that the eldest lady has caught hold of Aunt Zhao, she will definitely not let it go. The two of them will definitely fight to the death and quarrel for a long time. If the suspicion is transferred to us
, what else are they making trouble for?"
"Tsk, miss, you are sowing discord." Xiangyue's mood improved obviously. As she spoke, she was busy looking for jewelry for Ning Yujin to match her clothes.
"I'm telling them dog to bite dog, so that they don't have to worry about me after eating all day." Ning Yujin straightened her hair and saw Xiangyue about to put a beaded flower on her head, and she jumped in fright
Get up and say, "Just put a hairpin on, it doesn't have to be so troublesome."
Anyway, there are so many people at the Peony Flower Festival who are more beautiful than Hua, so she will not be missing.
"Oh." Xiangyue put down the beaded flower gloomily. She originally planned to dress her up a little more when she wasn't paying attention, but in the end she had to put on a plain white jade hairpin.
In fact, her young lady is not bad looking either, with fair skin, black hair, delicate facial features, delicate and graceful.
Especially those eyes, which seemed to reflect the bright light, rounder, brighter and more brilliant than the night pearls in the deep sea.
It's just that people are lazy, find everything troublesome, and never think about dressing up well.
Ning Yujin was dressed up as usual. During this period, she managed to get her to change into a slightly more gorgeous blue light-colored long skirt. The hem of the skirt had a continuous cloud pattern carefully embroidered with silver thread, making her look a little more attractive.
Simple beauty.
At the same time, the eldest lady also sent a little girl over to urge her. Ning Yuning gave Xiangqiao a few words to stop her from running around, and then she and Xiangyue went out.
Ning Yuning had already set off, and they rushed over at this time. It was already noon when they arrived.
The Peony Party was held in a courtyard of Xinguo Gongfu. There was a large peony garden there. When the flowers bloomed, they were colorful and colorful, which was a sight to behold.
It is said that it was because Mrs. Xin Guo loved peonies so much that Duke Xin Guo specially built such a peony garden. The two of them had the same eyebrows as each other and were deeply in love. They were indeed the best example of a loving couple in the Ye Dynasty. Later Zhou Dynasty chose King Ding.
The location of the concubine was chosen here not only to suit the occasion, but also to suit the mood.
After Xiangyue handed the sign of Quan Ningbo's Mansion to the guard, Ning Yujin was introduced into the garden.
Before I even walked in, I heard a melodious sound of the piano, a melodious and melodious sound of nature that made my heart sing.
Ning Yujin raised her head to look, and saw a vast sea of peonies in front of her. White, pink, red, ink, all kinds of peonies are beautiful and colorful, vying for beauty, endless splendor, endless description.
of unparalleled splendor.
It's true: when spring comes, Wei will be the master of Shaohua, and the leader of all the flowers will be Peony.
And among the peonies of various colors, the beautiful young women with beautiful flowers are all more charming. They are more delicate than the flowers, and they are carefully dressed, as if they want to compete with the peonies in the garden.
.
Some people were holding round fans to swat butterflies among the flowers, others were gathering in twos and threes and chatting, and from time to time there was a charming and charming chuckle, which was melodious to the ear.
Looking further, you can see four pavilions with flying gauze tents.
When we came in, the boy who led the way said that the four pavilions represented music, chess, calligraphy and painting respectively. If you are interested, you can go up and compete with other ladies.
There were many people gathered around each pavilion. In the fourth pavilion, a woman in warm yellow clothes was sitting cross-legged by the piano. The touching music came from her hands.
After looking around for a week, Ning Yujin came to a conclusion: "The selection of the king and concubine is comparable to a beauty pageant!"
"Miss, look," Xiangyue gently touched her arm and pursed her lips towards her left front, "Second Miss."
"Where is it?" Ning Yujin quickly followed Xiangyue's gaze and found Ning Yuning's location.
She was talking and laughing with several official ladies at the moment. She was wearing a begonia skirt made by Aunt Zhao who spent a lot of money on Jin Yixuan. She had a beaded moon hairpin on her head. She smiled, frowned, and moved.
Calm and decent, elegant and generous.
Ning Yujin turned her head and asked Xiangyue with a smile: "Have you discovered anything interesting?"
"What's so fun?" Xiangyue asked her back.
Ning Yujin raised her finger and pointed in the direction of Ning Yuning, and said with a smile: "Haven't you noticed that the ladies around her are not that good-looking, and they are obviously not as well-dressed as she is?"
Xiangyue looked up and down the people over there, and finally curled her lips and said, "Miss, I really didn't notice it if you didn't tell me. The second young lady is really good at planning to find a few people who are not as good as her in everything.
She, in this way, whenever someone looks towards them, she will definitely be the first thing they notice. No wonder I just took a casual glance and found her."
"Haha, it's just a little trick. A woman with real aura and elegant demeanor would disdain to use such means."
Ning Yujin narrowed her eyes slightly, looked in the direction of the woman playing the piano, and then calmly looked back.
In fact, there is another thing she didn't say. After all, Ning Yuning is not the legitimate daughter of Ningbo Mansion. When she is with the legitimate ladies of other wealthy families, her status will always be lower. She is so proud, and she is absolutely not.
Will tolerate this happening.
Therefore, she could maintain her sense of superiority by being with the ladies of fifth and sixth grade officials.
Ning Yujin chuckled lightly, stretched out her hand to touch Xiangyue's wrist: "Let's go, let's have a fight, I have to say hello to her anyway."
