Qiao Jinniang was caught off guard by Li Yun's hand. This was the first time she held hands with a man other than Lu Chen...
Li Yun caught Qiao Jinniang's gaze, and repeatedly withdrew his hand and said, "Sorry, cousin, it's me, Meng Lang."
Qiao Jinniang comforted her softly, "It's fine."
Qiao Jinniang and Li Yun went away hand in hand, Rong Xiaojun Wang looked at Lu Chen in the bushes with a very dark face, and said in a low voice:
"Seven, Brother Seven, do you still want to go down to give Miss Qiao Er a birthday present?"
Without saying a word, Lu Chen turned around and stepped on the tree, leaving only Rong Xiaojun Wang behind.
King Rong Xiaojun hated him for coming up with a surprise idea, hiding in a tree, instead of surprising Qiao Jinniang.
Instead, he was frightened by Qiao Jinniang!
This Qiao Jinniang is really courageous.
Qiao Jinniang and Li Yun returned to the garden where the banquet was held.
Then he saw Qiao Ruofeng coming over with a smile on his face, and joked: "When my cousin came to the house, he went straight to look for the second sister. My orthodox cousin is going to be jealous!"
Li Yun's ear tipped with embarrassment.
Qiao Jinniang also knew that she was joking, and said with a smile: "We are all a family, so there is no orthodox or unorthodox cousin."
Qiao Ruofeng blinked and said: "This is a family, and we will definitely get closer in the future."
Qiao Ruoshui snorted softly: "What kind of kiss is more intimate? A humble daughter from the countryside has shallow eyelids. An ordinary official who can't stand on the stage is showing off as a good marriage!"
Qiao Ruofeng was extremely annoyed: "Qiao Ruoshui, didn't you suffer from insanity? Why did you come out again today?"
Ruofeng may not think highly of the Li family, but the Li family is her aunt's family after all, so Qiao Ruoshui's contempt is undoubtedly embarrassing for their second wife.
Qiao Ruoshui glanced at Qiao Jinniang disdainfully, "You want to marry someone bad, no one is stopping you, don't affect my reputation!"
Qiao Jinniang looked at Li Yun apologetically, "Cousin, I'm sorry, my sister is not very smart."
Li Yundao: "Miss Qiao Si is right. I am really not worthy of you now. When I am in Enke, I will try my best to win the top spot and not let others despise you."
Qiao Jinniang smiled slightly, "Okay."
Qiao Ruoshui gave a cold snort, but she didn't jump. She now has a backing, Qiao Jinniang is willing to fall, she just waits to see the joke!
At the birthday banquet, Qiao Jinniang accepted a lot of presents, no matter if they were sincere or in consideration of the Hou Mansion's face.
The five maids worked all night to unpack the birthday gift boxes they received one by one.
Nuomi held a piece of mutton fat white jade and said Ruyi: "Miss, look at this piece of jade."
Qiao Jinniang said: "This is the best Hetian sheep fat jade, who gave it to you?"
Nuomi took out a note from the box and said, "It seems to be from His Royal Highness King Yong."
Qiao Jinniang saw that on the note there were only five characters "beauty with beautiful jade" and it was signed as King Yong.
She didn't know why King Yong wanted to give her a gift for her birthday, so she let Nuomi put it on the Duobao Pavilion.
Although suet jade is precious, Qiao Jinniang is not short of it. It would be nice to put it on the Duobao Pavilion to add a touch of color.
Qiao Jinniang saw that there was also a gift from Princess Jinghua among them, but they just met in a hurry in Zhiwei Pavilion that day.
Unexpectedly, the eldest princess rewarded herself with a red coral head.
The voice of the woman outside came from the door, Hong Ling went out to check, and came in with a small box and said to Qiao Jinniang: "Miss, this is a gift from Princess Fu'an."
Qiao Jinniang didn't want to watch it at first, but think about it, will there be a gift from Brother Tuan in it.
Then he opened the box, and inside was a pair of herbs.
Yuyan said: "Miss, are your eyes uncomfortable?"
Qiao Jinniang shook her head and said, "No."
Yuyan tilted her head and said, "Did the princess give the wrong congratulatory gift? The cassia seed, wolfberry, herb, chrysanthemum, and dendrobium in it are all good medicines for improving eyesight. The slave girl thought that your eyes are uncomfortable."
Qiao Jinniang frowned, what does the dog prince mean? Do you think she is blind?
...
In the first ten days of June, there was a major event in the city of Chang'an, that is, the daughter of the Xie family entered Chang'an according to word of mouth among the noble ladies.
In the previous dynasty, the aristocratic family was respected, and the current royal family, the Lu family, and the Qiao family where Qiao Jinniang lived were all used to be one of the aristocratic families.
The folks have always had a family of iron, and the emperor of flowing water.
After His Majesty ascended the throne today, he will eliminate the influence of the aristocratic family and use the children of poor families.
In the past twenty years, the power of the aristocratic family has long been much worse than before.
But after all, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. The Xie family has always been respected by the literati in Datang, and the daughter of the Xie family is also a dignified and virtuous lady in the eyes of the literati.
In the Tianzi box of Zhiwei Pavilion.
Princess Fulu took Qiao Jinniang to the window, waiting to see the daughter of the Xie family enter Chang'an.
"What kind of fairy-like figure is this Xie Yun, we can see it today."
Qiao Jinniang met Xie Yun, so she was not curious, "She is just like the rumors, she is a dignified, virtuous and beautiful woman."
Princess Fulu poked her head out, "Such a woman must be boring again, but Uncle Huang thinks that such a woman is suitable to be a princess and the mother of a country!
Li Lingling tried so hard to get the crown princess, she must have thought too much.
This concubine will only be in Xie Yun's pocket, and the emperor's uncle praised Xie Yun so much! "
Qiao Jinniang understood why Lu Chen wanted to demote his wife to be a concubine from the very beginning, perhaps because he felt that she was not worthy of being the mother of a country from the very beginning.
"I'm coming!"
When Xie's sedan chair came over, it was tightly covered.
Everyone originally thought that on such a hot day, the Xie family's daughter would not be able to cover up so tightly.
Fu Lu couldn't help but sigh when he couldn't see Xie Yun.
"Excuse me, is this Miss Qiao Er?"
At the door of Tianzihao's box, a coy maidservant in coarse clothes looked up and asked.
Fulu's maid who was guarding the door said: "Where is the mother-in-law, hurry up, go!"
Qiao Jinniang said, "Wait, you know me?"
The woman clenched her skirt tightly, and the skirt became wrinkled after a while. She knelt on the ground, regardless of other daughters coming out from the box next to her, and kowtowed:
"I beg Miss Qiao Er, don't drive me away, I won't dare to mess around in the future!
My parents are dead, and there is no one in the family anymore.
Even if the Li family gave me money, but I was given the decoction of Juezi, and it would be difficult for me to survive outside alone! "
"I don't want to be a roommate or a concubine, I just want to be a servant girl and serve the second lady and the third young master for the rest of their lives!"
Qiao Jinniang was a little confused, "Get up first, I don't even know who you are? Why did you drive me away?"
Ruyu knelt on the ground, kowtowed and said, "I am Ruyu, the personal servant girl who has served the third young master since childhood..."
In the afternoon today, there were quite a few people who came to see Xie Yun in the boxes of Zhiwei Pavilion, and the ladies in groups of threes and twos dispersed if they didn't see Xie Yun.
Unexpectedly, there is excitement and fun when you go out.
Li Lingling said: "This is the maidservant of the third young master of the Li family! Why is Miss Qiao so cruel to let such a delicate girl kneel on the ground!"
"Yes, get up quickly, Miss Qiao Er is a kind person, and she will definitely not make things difficult for you."
Seeing these aristocratic ladies, Qiao Jinniang twisted her handkerchief and said to Ruyu, "Since you are the maid of the Li family, I can't help you stay or stay..."
Ruyu didn't get up because of this, but knelt on the ground, knocked her head until blood was bleeding, "No, Second Miss, my life and death are in your moment!"
"I beg Second Miss, don't let the Li family drive me away!"
