Chapter 721: The flower-viewing sticker that was thrown away!
When she woke up early the next morning, Mrs. Li had two dark circles under her eyes, but she took her daughters-in-law and started packing their grandchildren's luggage.
Jiayin also took this opportunity to bring his brothers together for a second training session.
Last time it was a Jianghu theme, this time it is an overseas theme.
From Jiaren to Mao Geer, they are all attracted by the weird customs overseas.
Of course, they are more worried about the risks they may encounter at sea.
Even if no one else can use it except Jiaxi and Jiaan, they still study carefully, such as how to save themselves at sea, and how to identify the direction...
At night, the good news rarely came into the room, but she wanted to sleep with her grandma.
She snuggled in her grandma's arms, listening to the old lady sighing, listening to the old lady talking about old things, listening to the old lady lamenting that the child was getting older and could no longer be contained...
In short, she will listen to what grandma says and be a qualified listener.
What old people fear most is loneliness. Their children and grandchildren have made a living, but they are empty around them.
At this time, the persistence of her little cotton-padded jacket is grandma’s last sense of security...
The whole family was reluctant to part with the two boys, and Tao Hongying and Zhao Yuru also shed tears in private.
But no matter what, the thirteenth day of the first lunar month is still here.
Jia Xi and Jia An loaded up their luggage and got into the carriage.
The family couldn't afford to have too many people to see him off, so only Li Zhensheng and Li Laoer followed the car into the city.
Despite the care of the Marquis, Li Zhensheng still managed the Foreign Affairs Department from top to bottom.
Jiayin was afraid that grandma, San Bo Niang and my mother would be sad at home, so he asked them to go to the city to stay for two days, and then come back after watching the lanterns on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
Li Laosan and Li Laosi also tried their best to encourage.
Li Zhensheng and Jiaren both have small courtyards in the city, especially Jiaren’s small courtyard, which has been vacant since Mr. Wen moved out.
The yard will be easily ruined if no one lives in it for a long time and loses its popularity.
It would be best if the family members go over and clean it up.
Mrs. Li cheered up and went into the city with her daughter-in-law and grandchildren.
On the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, after sending a letter to the Jia family in advance, Mrs. Li went to talk to Mrs. Jia.
By chance, Jia Xu and Lu Zong were also at home.
So, the Jiaren brothers also came together as guests.
The boys gathered in Jia Xu’s yard to laugh and play, while the old and young ladies gathered at Mrs. Jia’s side.
Mrs. Li had a smile on her face after being enlightened by her old sisters. She even learned to play a few cards with Mrs. Jia.
Mrs. Jia Er took advantage of this moment to take Tao Hongying and Zhao Yuru to her yard, and then took out a post.
Tao Hongying and Zhao Yuru were curious. When they took a closer look, they saw that it was a flower appreciation post from the eldest princess’s mansion.
Mrs. Jia’s second wife’s expression showed no joy at all, but was filled with sadness, and she said: “I originally wanted to take the car to Suijintan, but I didn’t expect that you guys came today. It’s really great.
“Look at this post, it’s really strange. Logically speaking, our family has nothing to do with the Bao family, and we have never spoken to the eldest princess.
“But yesterday, the nanny from the Princess Mansion suddenly sent a message asking for the orb to go to the banquet, and I was not allowed to follow. It was really hard to understand, it was so weird.
“I wonder if the princess has received the post? It would be great if she received it, and the orb can still have a companion!”
Tao Hongying thought for a while, then shook her head and said: "The good news is great, and she has been taking care of the affairs of the Hou Mansion recently, so I rarely ask about her dealings.
“Well, let’s call her over and let’s ask her.
“It’s best to go with the two children and have someone to take care of them.”
Mrs. Jia Er was so happy that she hurriedly sent someone to ask for good news.
Jiayin and Baozhu were playing in Baozhu's room. The two sisters were eating snacks, talking about New Year's Eve trivia, throwing sachets and picking agate stones, and were very happy. Suddenly I heard that my mother wanted to talk to them about something, so the two went over hand in hand.
Hearing the whole story, Jiayin frowned and intuitively believed that Baozhu got the invitation because of her relationship.
She was busy and busy during the New Year, so she had long forgotten the invitation to the Princess Mansion.
Moreover, grandma was in a bad mood, and she had no intention of attending a flower-viewing party.
But now that Baozhu has received the post, and with the Jia family’s confidence, they cannot easily shirk it, so Baozhu must go.
If she couldn't bear Baozhu to go to the banquet alone, she would definitely have to go to the princess's mansion...
But this is just her guess, and she cannot say it out easily. There is nothing that can be done to make the Jia family worry in vain.
So, she smiled and said: "I also accepted the post, and I happened to go to play with Baozhu. My family was worried, so I took Grandma He and Shui Ling with me.
“Mother He is from the palace and knows the rules best. Shui Ling knows martial arts. If anyone makes Bao Zhu and I unhappy, let Shui Ling beat them!”
Mrs. Jia Er heard it funny, but she felt relieved after all.
Tao Hongying knew her daughter very well and saw something was wrong in her expression, but she did not expose it. Instead, she smiled and helped to reassure Mrs. Jia Er.
"It would be best if Baozhu goes with Fu Niu'er, and Bao Zhu can also be Fu Niu'er's companion. Otherwise, Fu Niu'er has such a bad reputation that others won't even dare to sit next to her, which would be embarrassing!"
Everyone laughed, and the matter was put to rest.
Mrs. Jia Er was busy choosing clothes and jewelry for her daughter, and she was very attentive.
Tao Hongying and Zhao Yuru also helped as staff, and it was very lively for a while.
Jiayin found an opportunity and gave Shuiling a few instructions, and Shuiling left Jia's house.
On the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, they came back from Zhengjiazhuang. They had been eating and drinking, and today they were on an errand!
The young and old of the Li family had lunch at Jia's house. After the meal, they sat for a while and then went home.
Tao Hongying avoided the old lady and asked her daughter carefully.
Jiayin didn’t hide the good news, so he told the whole story.
Tao Hongying didn't have a good impression of the eldest princess's mansion at all. Just thinking about how the eldest princess, who was over fifty years old, had the nerve to bully her daughter who was only a few years old, made her want to chop the eldest princess into pieces and braise them!
However, she didn’t quite believe that the eldest princess’s mansion had tried every possible means, even pulling up the orb, just to force the daughter to go to the banquet and harm her daughter in full view of the public.
After all, it has only been more than a month since more than 100 members of the Chen family were almost buried alive, and the daughter’s illustrious reputation has not yet been forgotten by everyone in Xindu!
No one should dare to seek death at this time...
At this time, Shui Ling just came back.
She opened her mouth and said: "Princess, the housemaid of the Hou Mansion went to all the embroidery shops and jewelry stores to inquire about it. She came back and told me that indeed many noble girls from other families had received invitations.
“For this reason, the embroidery shop and jewelry store have received a lot of business, and they are all staying up late to catch up on work.
“But the basic orders were placed years ago, which means that the invitations to the Princess Mansion were also sent out years ago.
“The Jia family was the only one who received the post temporarily.”
Tao Hongying frowned at that time and said angrily: "What does the Princess's Mansion mean? Is it really just to force you to go to the banquet that you posted the post to Baozhu?"
"Now it seems like this is the case." Jiayin also looked bad.
It's not that she's afraid of the princess's house, but she doesn't want Baozhu to be involved in any danger. If there is any injury, she won't be able to explain it to the Jia family.
She thought for a while and then told her, "Mom, don't tell the Jia family about this. On the day of the banquet, I will take Aunt Mei with me and Uncle Dashan will drive."
“If anything goes wrong, Aunt Mei and Shui Ling are here to protect me and Baozhu.”
Tao Hongying finally felt relieved when she thought that both Ye Shan and Dongmei were very capable and reliable.
But she still told her: "On the 18th, I will go to Cyclamen. If anything happens, I will ask someone to come and report it!"
