Chapter 10 10. Preparation

Then thank you cousin for your generosity. I will pour you some tea someday and prepare a thank you gift.

"It's easy to talk about. I heard from my second cousin that there is a new chef in Changchun Building, who is good at Jiangnan cuisine. How about you treat me to a meal as a thank you gift?"

One word is settled.

Looking at the cunning eyes of the woman in front of him, Bai Siruo seemed to have reacquainted himself with this cousin who he didn't usually have many friends with.

In the past, Feng Jinyao always had a submissive and taciturn look. She also didn't like to show off at banquets, which really didn't match up with her cheerful temper. Therefore, although they were related by blood, they were not very familiar with each other.

Today, her eyes lit up, and she felt a little more like it.

The people of the Bai family were naturally happy to see that the two young girls had a tacit understanding.

On the other hand, the third lady, Mrs. Shen, was a little unconvinced after hearing what she said. She pushed Bai Sihan with her elbow, who was standing next to her. Unfortunately, she looked thoughtful, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

Mr. Shen was not willing to let her daughter fall behind others, so she planned to argue a few words.

But before he opened his mouth, the woman from outside came in and said that breakfast had been prepared, and the Prime Minister and the three gentlemen were waiting in the hall.

So everyone stood up, Bai Siruo and Feng Jinyao supported Mrs. Bai from the left and the right, and headed towards the hall.

After breakfast, Mrs. Bai was sent back to Shouanyuan by her third wife Shen and fourth wife Princess Wen Yi to rest. There were many guests coming today, so she needed to keep herself up.

On the other hand, several juniors followed the eldest lady Lin and got busy individually.

Girls and servants are in the inner courtyard, and servants and servants are in the outer courtyard. They shuttle between the two places in an orderly manner. Although they dare not speak loudly, everyone has a smile on their face.

Those who came here today are all distinguished guests, and they cannot be treated at all.

Mrs. Lin made all the arrangements half a month ago.

Mother Lin is responsible for the table and chair furnishings required for the banquet, all kinds of dishes, boxes and utensils, and the daily necessities for the wine basket.

The food and wine dishes are in charge of Chef Xu.

Bai Siruo didn't like this cousin, so he found an excuse to take Feng Jinyao away.

On the other hand, Bai Sihan on the side didn't rush over when he saw this. He turned around and asked someone to find a guqin.

In the pavilion in Qinxiang Courtyard, I burned incense and got up my mood. The guqin played by my fingertips seemed to have spirituality. The song "Spring River Flowers and Moonlight Night" was performed very well. Feng Jinyao felt that it was good even after listening to it through half the wall.

Bai Siruo held hot tea in hand to drive away the chill.

Hearing the music playing over and over in his ears, the unhappiness that was still hidden in his heart was now revealed on his face.

What are you showing off to? Its my grandmothers birthday today, who else are you trying to steal the limelight from?

Then she placed the tea cup heavily on the table. Some of the hot tea inside spilled out and burned the back of her hand, but she didn't know it.

She was a person who kept her secrets secret. Feng Jinyao thought of the "good sisters" she had made friends with in her previous life. They were all smiles in front of others but had a sly heart in front of others. But this cousin Bai was an upright one.

Why is my cousin angry? But because of her outstanding piano skills, her fourth uncle criticized her?

With one sentence, Bai Siruo's thoughts were revealed. She blushed for a moment and then responded calmly.

"Father said that I was over sixteen years old and didn't have much to offer. However, although this cousin grew up in Qiongzhou, her behavior was more like the legitimate daughter of the Dongdu family. He liked her so much that he simply wanted her. Its okay to be a daughter, but you can also let me be free.

The disappointment and unwillingness in her eyes were clearly visible, and she had the stubborn expression of a little daughter, which made Feng Jinyao feel a little distressed.

"Cousin, you really don't have any good skills? I heard from my second brother that you are very good at throwing pots, but your accuracy is not as good as his. It's a pity that the fourth uncle and the fourth aunt are watching you closely, otherwise you would not have the talent for riding and shooting. I'm afraid he's even more powerful than my second brother."

"What's the use? My father always forces me to study, and my mother sends nuns to teach me the rules every day. It seems that she has to make me into another Wei Lanxuan in order to be satisfied."

Bai Siruo looked tired, and when he said these words, the annoyance in his heart was aroused again.

Wei Lanxuan, the eldest granddaughter of Duke Wei of the Eastern Capital and the niece of Concubine Wei, has always been a noblewoman from a prestigious family in the Eastern Capital.

Feng Jinyao heard her fourth aunt mention it in her spare time. When the ladies in the backyard thought of her, everyone's eyes were filled with admiration.

Hence, Bai Siruocai always feels like a dwarf.

Now, there is another Bai Sihan, how can she not be angry!
