After that day, Osmanthus fragrans has been busy with the supervision of Taolin and Zhulin. Koizumi also has been following to help, Wen Qingyan has never appeared again, life is still stable. But the general cost of running water is really distressing to Osmanthus fragrans. If it had not been for guisu's previous efforts to make a fortune in the Ministry of war, she would not have been able to afford the expenses.
Suddenly one day, the housekeeper handed her an envelope. Osmanthus feel very strange, but still uneasy. Guinan knew that he was in the capital. Did he come to her? Osmanthus with such hope ran back to the room, opened inside is a row of beautiful handwriting, at a glance can recognize the woman wrote. After careful reading of Osmanthus fragrans, it turns out that Wen Qingyan invited Osmanthus fragrans to a banquet for her birthday. Osmanthus heart is very lost, the letter to the side.
It took a long time for osmanthus to wake up from self pity. She suddenly picked up the letter and read it again. Then she ran to find Qiu Wen in a hurry. Qiu Wen read the contents of the letter and said, "how could she invite you?"
"I'm surprised, too. In the end, I am just a common people, or a business woman. She is the daughter of the gentry. What can I do for her? At that time, I will be ridiculed by those young ladies and young masters. "
Qiu Wen returned the letter paper to Osmanthus fragrans and said, "Wen Qingyan has not yet come out of the cabinet, so it must be more girls who go there. But fengchangzu will definitely go. It's really strange to ask you to go. You haven't made it clear with her even if you don't know your identity first! "
"Why don't I write back and say that I know I'm too humble to go?"
Qiu Wen shook his head and said, "this is actually a dead end. If you really go, you will be ridiculed by them. But if you don't go, they will say that you are arrogant and don't appreciate it. "
"Since both sides will be said, I'd better not go."
Qiu Wen a smile, say: "all can."
Therefore, Osmanthus fragrans wrote a letter to Wen Qingyan and sent it to the housekeeper. After that, there was no sound in Wen Qingyan, and osmanthus was relieved. But who knows, on the day of Wen Qingyan's birthday, GUI Susu went out to go outside the city as usual. Unexpectedly, the sedan chair man stood up and said politely, "but miss osmanthus, we are from Taifu's house. Our eldest lady specially ordered us to invite her to come."
When Osmanthus fragrans can be confused. "I've told your lady that it's not convenient for me to go."
The sedan chair driver said with a smile: "my lady asked me to tell Miss GUI not to worry. Please get on the sedan chair."
Osmanthus smile is very embarrassed: "I come out in a hurry, as well as wait for me to dress up again." After that, Osmanthus fragrans went back.
The first idea of Osmanthus fragrans is to find Qiu Wen. But Qiu Wen had already gone out to the barracks. Sweet scented osmanthus has no master. The sedan chair is outside. If she doesn't go, it's hard to say. It's just It's just that she didn't think it was necessary to go to the party, so she didn't even prepare a gift. If you go away so empty handed, you will not be able to blame others for being sarcastic.
Koizumi saw that she was in a hurry and said, "but brother Qiu's family is clean and incorruptible. At the moment, he can't give anything good as a birthday present! Why don't we invite those sedan bearers to sit in first, and the girl can make some dishes to take with her? "
Sweet scented osmanthus is also anxious, what words all said to the outside: "I am not what silly white sweet.". Their family's birthday, food must be well prepared and very exquisite, how can I look on my cooking? If you take it with you, you will be ridiculed for being shabby! "
Koizumi didn't quite understand what he heard, but he also knew that there was no way to do it. Now he was in a state of riding a tiger. "Go ahead and change your clothes," I went out quietly to look for help from the rear alley.
Osmanthus repeatedly nodded, let Koizumi go quickly. Then he changed his clothes and made up again.
Koizumi quickly ran to the gate of the imperial palace. None of the guards had seen Koizumi and didn't inform him. Koizumi immediately knelt down, kowtowed several times, bleeding on his forehead, and said, "I don't want to go in, just ask the princess to come out and see me!"
Seeing this, the bodyguards were a little impatient. One of them kept watching him, and the other went in to report. About a quarter of an hour later, guisu rushed out from the inside and asked, "what's the hurry to find me?"
Koizumi said this once again. GUI Su rolled a white eye and said to the bodyguard: "find a doctor to bandage him. I'm going out." GUI Susu went out directly. Koizumi immediately said, "Princess Royal, etiquette... What about the gifts? "
GUI Su sneered and said, "just because she deserves to accept my gift?"
Koizumi just shut up. As long as GUI Su goes, what can others do?
GUI Susu took a carriage and soon arrived near Taifu mansion. She told the carriage to go back first and watched in the dark. Qiu Wen's official rank was not high, so he lived far away. No matter how fast the sedan bearers were, they could not catch up with the speed of the carriage. Therefore, GUI Su Su Su concluded that Osmanthus fragrans had not arrived. However, when GUI Su arrived nearby, he was vaguely aware that something was wrong. This is usually birthday, although the master will start to prepare early, but the guests are close to lunch time. It's still so early now. If osmanthus comes, isn't she the only one? The more you think about it, the more you feel that something is wrong. So you turn to a shop, ask for a pen and paper, write a note, and then pick up a small piece of gravel from the ground. About three quarters of an hour later, a sedan chair stopped at the door of Taifu's house, and osmanthus came down from the sedan chair. Guisusu immediately threw the paper wrapped in small stones, just hit the shoulder of Osmanthus fragrans. Osmanthus subconsciously looked to the ground, immediately picked up the note, hidden in the palm of the hand quietly look - this matter is strange, careful yourself, I am in the dark. Signing is a precious word.With a sigh of relief, osmanthus put away the note and followed the sedan bearers into Taifu's house. Osmanthus into the place just know what is Diaolianghuadong, with the maid all the way through the hall, not for a while will be around dizzy. I don't know how long it took, but the maid stopped and said, "Miss GUI, our eldest lady is waiting for you in the garden. You can see it when you go in."
"Thank you very much." Osmanthus all the way in, see the waterside pavilion near the lake inside some cakes, then subconsciously toward the past.
