Abandoned Woman Busy Farming

The Queen Mother, the Emperor, the Empress, Princess Jade, and the Emperor's seven-year-old eldest son took the lead and took their own plates to get some food. However, the royal people were just pretending and returned to their seats later. Let your maid go get food. The seven-year-old eldest prince deliberately pretended to be very stable and mature, and with his immature little face, he looked very cute.

Bai Ruozhu found that the queen mother and the eldest prince wanted to get it themselves, but it was not safe for them to blend in with the crowd, and it was not conducive to the protection of the guards.

Suddenly, Bai Ruozhu's eyelids twitched, and an idea came to her mind. What if Cheng Shuiguo's previous plan in the palace had not been destroyed? Will you take action on this day? Thinking of this, she couldn't help but shudder. She hoped that it was just her random thinking and that nothing like this would happen.

In the corner where the meal was taken, Xue Wenqian glanced at Bai Ruozhu. Next to him, his sister, Xue Xue, the eldest daughter of the Xue family, glanced at her brother and whispered: "Don't look, I don't think she has much. It’s amazing, the son of a woman who can marry that kind of woman can’t even take it for granted.”

Xue Wenqian shook his head with a wry smile and said: "Little sister, don't underestimate me. Bai Ruozhu is indeed a genius, and I admire her intelligence. Although her husband is the son of that cunning woman, he should not be underestimated."

That's what he said, but when he mentioned Jiang Yichun, his tone was not very good.

Xue Xue snorted coldly and said: "People have already regarded you as a villain with ulterior motives, so you should worry less. If you want to learn business, you might as well become a disciple of an elder from the Chamber of Commerce. I still don't believe in those from the Chamber of Commerce." The elder is no better than a little girl like her."

Xue Wenqian shrugged his shoulders and said: "Of course she is not as sophisticated as the guys from the Chamber of Commerce, but she is better because she has a flexible mind and has a lot of fantastic ideas."

Xue Xue still wanted to speak, but saw her father's step-in-law walking over. She bumped her eldest brother with her elbow as a secret reminder.

Gu Yalai walked up to the two brothers and sisters pretending to be unintentional. While getting the food, she whispered: "I heard that Wen Qian wanted to invite Bai Ruozhu to our house as a guest. It seems that the drunkard is not interested in drinking. It's a pity. In the end, you will still get nothing out of a bamboo basket.”

After saying that, she turned around and walked away without waiting for the two brothers and sisters to speak, with a proud smile on her lips. It seemed that in the usual secret fight, Gu Yalai took advantage.

"You..." Xue Xue was a fifteen-year-old girl after all. She almost lost her temper and started scolding her stepmother. Fortunately, Xue Wenqian stopped her and whispered: "Don't make trouble with her in public, otherwise dad I’m going to train you again, and let her get what she wants.”

Xue Xue took a deep breath and finally calmed down her anger.

Bai Ruozhu hadn't moved yet. She took a jug and poured wine for Jiang Yichun. Jiang Yichun's eyes had been secretly falling on Gu Yalai. He even heard the conversation that Gu Yalai had just gone to have with Xue Wenqian's brother and sister. He felt desolate in his heart. If he had intended to go back to Beijing to inquire, he might have known that his mother had remarried, but he never inquired, probably because he was avoiding such a thing.

The folk customs in Danliang are open, and women can reconcile with men, and even remarry is not a problem.

However, my mother, whom I had not seen for nine years, instead of excitedly holding his hand and asking questions, she looked at him indifferently, as if she were a stranger. How could she be so cruel?

Jiang Yichun raised his head and drank another glass of wine as he thought about it. His eyes were a bit colder. How could he have forgotten that his mother resolutely left their father and son? Wasn't that cruel enough? What does it matter now?

Bai Ruozhu held Jiang Yichun's hand from the side and said, "There is no need to feel sorry for someone who doesn't care about you. Let's go get the food, otherwise we will attract attention."

Jiang Yichun had worked in the Department of General Affairs for many years and had long since learned to control his emotions. He soon put away his melancholy and exuded a chilling aura that made people afraid to approach him easily.

The two stood up, and the Li brothers and sisters hurried over. Miss Li took Bai Ruozhu's arm, and Li Bin also warmly said that he and Jiang Yichun would go get some snacks, and then sit down and have a drink together.

At this time, the colleagues of Jinwu Guard also came over to say hello. Jiang Yichun's expression softened a little. Although he was still cold, he no longer had the aura of being a stranger.

It was naturally difficult for Bai Ruozhu to get close to the old men when they were talking, so she and Li Wanhua went to the side to get their meals, but because they were worried about Jiang Yichun, they didn't stay too far away.

"Sister Ruozhu, I thought you all knew..." Li Wanhua said apologetically.

Bai Ruozhu shook his head, "I was busy a while ago and forgot about this. I don't blame you."

Li Wanhua sneered, she didn't want to mention this matter, and she was afraid that Bai Ruozhu and his wife would be embarrassed, which would ruin their relationship with the Li family.

Everyone got their meals outside, and there were also singing and dancing performances on the water platform on the lake, which was very lively. At the same time, the eunuchs of the Department of Internal Affairs brought up various birthday gifts, placed them in the middle of the table, and presented them to the Queen Mother for viewing.

When everyone enters the palace to celebrate their birthday, they hand the birthday gift to the Department of Internal Affairs at the entrance of the palace, and the people of the Department of Internal Affairs will check it carefully to see if there is anything dangerous before moving it to the Queen Mother.

Bai Ruozhu found it funny when she saw it. The Queen Mother must have been afraid that a concubine would perform in the middle of the table, so she simply put something in the middle so that no one would have to get under her nose.

The etiquette was arranged according to the rank of the officials. The first place was naturally the princes and relatives of the emperor, and then they were arranged according to official positions. Bai Ruozhu and Jiang Yichun should have the lowest official positions among the people present, so she was not in a hurry. It will take a long time to come to her.

Duan Wangren was not present, but the gift was delivered. It was a white jade Guanyin. The Guanyin was forty centimeters tall and its shape was lifelike. The jade material is of high quality, so as soon as the jade Guanyin was brought out, it attracted everyone's attention.

Someone immediately said that the Queen Mother's blessings are endless, isn't she the living Guanyin? The Queen Mother smiled and nodded, but Bai Ruozhu felt that her smile was very weak and did not reach her eyes at all, which showed that she did not like this gift.

It doesn't matter whether the gift is good or not, what matters is who is giving it. King Duan is eyeing the throne, so it is strange that the Queen Mother would have a good impression of him.

Then other gifts were presented one after another. While chatting with Li Wanhua, Bai Ruozhu paid attention to Jiang Yichun's situation, and looked at the birthday gifts from time to time, and soon the Meng family's birthday gifts were presented.

Because it was a large screen, two guards moved it over, covered it with a curtain, and placed it in front of the Queen Mother. The guards lifted the curtain, but everyone present was stunned...
