Although Yi Yue and Liu Yue had performed very well, and Liu Yue had even actively moved closer to her, she still could not believe in the two of them. This would depend on the side effects of Qing Yan's backlash, so she had to show slight excitement in front of them.
As a girl, even if she was indifferent, she would still be happy during the banquet on her birthday. However, she had been reborn, and knew what had happened to her during that banquet, which led to many things happening in the future. She even knew what had caused her mother's death, but she couldn't find out anything.
Her brows were tightly knitted together. The scenes of her past life were echoing in her mind, assaulting her brain. It was so difficult for her to even breathe. A wave of breath was stuck at her throat, making her want to commit heinous acts.
She reached out a hand and grabbed the bedsheet tightly. Her good sister, her good aunt, thank you all for preparing this banquet for me. I will definitely repay you with all my heart and soul!
As soon as the news of a birthday feast was spread for the eldest miss, it caused an uproar. The servant girls had nothing better to do, so they just sat there and discussed animatedly.
He said, "You didn't see that this morning's gift was carried towards the Agarwood Courtyard like flowing water. I saw from a distance that the embroidered shoes were embroidered with peonies, noble and beautiful at the same time. Who knows how much time it would take to weave the peonies. The most important thing is that the pearls on them are as big as pearls!"
As the old woman spoke, she gestured, causing the others to look on with envy. All of a sudden, they sighed. Previously, they had seen the third wife gain power, but the one they loved the most was still the eldest miss?
After Liu Yue went back to the courtyard and learned all the things she had heard from Shi Anran, she smiled slightly, "Isn't it because you want to hold onto that thing and want to expose it?"
It was early in the morning, and the fall was just right. The air was slightly chilly, but it was too weak to withstand the haughtiness of the servants.
After Lady Xu's death, she did not say a word of regards. Shi Anran was summoned to her father's study for her birthday, and in exchange, she received countless gifts, from the study room to Agarwood Academy. She had just been summoned to let the people from Jian Jia Yuan see the situation clearly and silently.
Because Yi Yue was a servant in front of Shi Yu, she was well-versed in the ways of men, but she did not know a single thing about women's hair bun. After Qing Yan left, he saw that Lian Xing's cooking skills were not bad and called her over.
In just a few moments, the bun had been formed, and the soft and weak hairstyle made her eyes look like water. She was looking forward to it and used her eyebrow pencil to draw out the image of the eyebrows, but she did not move her eyebrows.
This was her birthday, and she was dressed in a gorgeous dress with white and gold flowers. The beautiful golden threads were densely packed, outlining the charm of the flower. In order to make it appear more exquisite, she even sewed some thumb-sized pearls in some places with golden threads to enhance its brightness.
It was not hard to imagine the amount of blood that had come out of the third wife's clothes.
The female seating area was located in the main hall of the Clear River Brothel, and when she stepped in, she saw that the people who were close to Shi Family had already sat down.
The person he was most familiar with was Murong Fei'er.
Even after being separated by so many people, Shi Anran was still able to easily find her figure.
Perhaps it would be impossible to find her. As the only daughter of the Prime Minister, she wore a butterfly dress with a hundred flowers on it. The butterflies on her dress looked like they were about to spread their wings but not their wings, looking like a proud swan gracefully sitting on the seat.
Currently, she was not engaged to the crown prince yet, but the position of the crown prince's consort was only a piece of cake for her. She was so contemptuous, so proud, that she let everyone circle around her as if this banquet was prepared for her.
Shi Anran quietly enjoyed her beauty, she imagined how she would look when she was pregnant with a child, but would never be able to have one, after all, wouldn't it be fair for her to die just like that?
Shi Anran smiled, she felt that training in words was a good thing, it had made people's hearts weaker, but it was still the best, why would a vengeful person need a heart?
With Murong Fei'er in front of her, even if she were to enter, it would not attract too much attention. After all, that person was so beautiful, so beautiful that she looked down on everything, and was enough to attract everyone's attention.
As the host, Shi Anran stood up and bowed, then said: "Today is my birthday. Many thanks to all of you for being willing to personally come, I will first use the wine to thank everyone's kindness. I hope that everyone will not be so restrained."
Everyone congratulated her, except for one girl. She looked on coldly from the sidelines, and after a long while, she said, "Today is Miss Shi's big day, why are you wearing a dress with a flower pattern on it? "Although this Ephemeral Flower is beautiful, it was only for a brief moment. I was lucky all the time, so why did Miss Shi turn it into something unknown?"
The moment he said that, the atmosphere turned quiet.
Shi Anran saw that the woman's face was like the silver moon, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a heroic air around her, as if she was from Shu. A pair of phoenix-like steps were swaying on top of the bun. The pure gold ornaments matched her malt-colored skin color. Her eyes were slightly raised while her noble aura was oppressing.
It was unknown who said this, but this was the young miss of Xiang Family, it sounds like he was his relative!
And so she laughed.
Their relatives were indeed, the man from Xiang Family that Shi Anran was betrothed to was actually Xiang Rongqing's big brother. Normally, she would hate him, but with so many people around, she could only shyly smile, but in her heart, she did not take it to heart.
Because of a frame-up in her previous life, she had missed out on that person, and now she did not have any intentions of doing it on purpose. Just by looking at Xiang Rongqing's appearance, how much goodwill could she have towards her brother?
Since ancient times, it had always been normal for sister-in-law to not be on good terms with each other, so everyone would just treat it as a show. Shi Anran did not want to become a show for others to see, but looking at the enemy's hostile eyes, she felt that if she did not retaliate, she would be treated as a joke.
He stroked the marigolds placed in front of him and smiled gently, "Miss Xiang, you're overthinking it. These flowers are just flowers, nothing more.
Xiang Rongqing snorted, showing her disdain.
Ever since her mother had left, she and her brother had been relying on each other for life, but now, there was this girl. Her appearance wasn't the best, and her figure didn't seem like someone that could be raised, nor someone that her brother liked. She could only look at Murong Fei'er who had a good relationship with her. The latter received her gaze, indifferently put down the teacup, and said: "Since ancient poets are willing to praise beauties with flowers, even Yang Gui Fei has the nickname of Begonia. Miss Shi's words are too harsh."
Such a high and clear person who had read so many books of poetry, his status was extremely valuable. Even those who mocked themselves with flowers spoke of such poetic feelings that even ignorant people would not be able to understand.
Who would have thought that such a noble and noble person would actually make people call him a corpse and two lives? However, she still had a faint smile on her face as she reached out her hand to pinch the marigolds. She casually threw them on the ground and laughed: "So, flowers can resemble people, but when you say they are like flowers, you degrade them. At the very least, life is more precious than this flower."
