Fragrance Returned

Yuhuan came over and said, "Princess, everyone in Ziyuan is here."

Xun Xiang nodded. Except for Grandma Wang, who bent her knees, the other servants kowtowed to Xun Xiang.

This courtyard has a large establishment, including a nanny, a nun in charge, two big girls, a small kitchen steward, four second-class girls, four little girls, and four rough ladies.

Aunt Dai is the steward of the small kitchen, and the two women, Xun Xiang, who specializes in making whipped cream, are included in the caretaker's wife, and are considered regular employees of the princess mansion.

Plus General Jiang and twenty guards who are on call at any time.

The disadvantage of overstaffing and overstaffing exists in every era.

At this time, Ding Zhen and Xue Tian were the first to arrive, followed by Mi Honglan, Tao Jing, Shen Ying, Gao Shanzhu and Gao Mingzhu.

Several little girls first went to Qijin Hall to pay their respects to Princess Dongyang, and then returned to Ziyuan.

They ordered the desserts they wanted to eat and had them delivered directly from Liuqingyuan.

There was good food and drink, and it was lively. A few little girls had a great time.

Xunxiang has never liked Gao Shanzhu very much, and the bad things she showed today made Xunxiang even more disgusted.

She didn't like to talk to Xue Tian and Ding Zhen, two little girls from a low background. Even when she spoke, she was very rude. She felt that she was losing her status by hanging out with them.

Especially for Ding Zhen, I feel that she is a merchant girl and she is not a real relative of Xun Xiang.

There were a few times when Xunxiang got really angry and told her some half-truths and half-falsehoods.

Shen Ying and Tao Jing helped resolve the situation so that the situation would not be too ugly.

Xue Tian and Ding Zhen both have good tempers and are smiling so much that they don't even realize it.

Mi Honglan loves to laugh, has big dimples as beautiful as Mi Hongmian, and is a very lovable girl.

The little girls played until Shen left.

Ding Zhen and Xue Tian walked at the end, and Xun Xiang apologized.

"I won't call you on occasions like this in the future."

Xue Tian nodded, she didn't like Gao Shanzhu's arrogance and domineering attitude.

Ding Zhen smiled and said, "Don't be angry, Sister Xiang. I know how to deal with those things next time. Princess Mingshan is a princess with a noble status. It's normal to have a little temper."

She still wanted to interact more with those noble ladies. Brother Wang has strong abilities and lofty ideals. When he marries his in-laws in the future, he must find ways to help him get better and better...

Xunxiang smiled. This little cousin is like Dingshan. She has known how to raise eyebrows since she was a child, how to get higher and higher, and how to maximize profits. It's a good thing to be motivated. As long as they have the right intentions, they can help if they can.

At You time, Xunxiang went to Qijin Hall.

Prince Consort Xun didn't come back, so only mother and daughter were having dinner, and the crisp sound of chopsticks hitting the dishes made the silence even more intense.

Dongyang said, "Next time you come to dinner, bring Feifei and Heiwa. It will be fun."

Before Xun Xiang recognized her relatives, there were many birds in this yard. When Feifei came, the birds were too frightened to scream, and two were too frightened to eat and were sick.

Dongyang had to have someone carry the birdcage to the front yard.

Xun Xiang said, "Let someone bring those bird cages back. Feifei won't be able to stay here for long."

The servants here didn't dare to make any noise. There was no more chirping of birds, and the silence was terrifying.

On March 20th, the Xun family, Mr. and Mrs. Tao Weng, Mrs. Tao, Tao Jing, Sun Yu and Mu came successively.

What was unexpected was that Mr. Xunxiang also came to make a fuss. Everyone laughed and said that Xunxiang was a proud man.

The old man went out in a big way, with a lot of special carriages, special chairs, quilts and mattresses.

Consort Xun was excited that the old man could come.

They carried him to the teahouse in the east wing, because that room had a tatami where the old man could lie down easily, and the afternoon sunlight hit the tatami.

All the men came to the teahouse to drink tea and chat with the old man, and the hut immediately seemed crowded.

The old man frowned and said, "It's noisy. Mr. Tao and Xiangxiang stay, you all go out to play. Oh, today Xiangxiang is the master. When he goes out to accompany the guests, he only asks people to bring all the good food and drink."

Tao Gong laughed and said, "You guys go out. I haven't had a heart-to-heart talk with the old lady in many years... Oh, I am still young when I am with the old lady. I can't call myself 'old man'."

Everyone left with a smile.

The guests were chatting and laughing in several rooms in the east wing. Sun Yumu and the Xun brothers took Feifei to fly in the yard. Brother Qian and Heiwa followed excitedly and shouted.

Several female relatives went to Qijin Hall to pay tribute to Dongyang.

Dongyang didn't see her due to illness, so they only exchanged a few greetings in the yard.

After they left, Aunt Chai whispered to Dongyang, "Your Royal Highness, the ancestor of the Xun family is here. Will you send someone into the palace to ask the queen for instructions, and go out to give the old man a gift as a junior?"

The Queen must be willing to see a harmonious relationship between Dongyang and her husband's family. She was allowed to go out to entertain her husband's family, and her ban was also lifted. In this way, the prince-in-law will also be happy.

Dongyang dreams of lifting the ban. But thinking about those people who had watched her being beaten by the prince-in-law, and she went to apologize to the old man and admit her mistake in front of them, what about her face?

She shook her head.

Xun Yibo also quietly asked Prince Consort Xun if his mother could come to see the old man as a gift and lift the ban at the same time. When the ancestors came to the house, they also gave my mother a step up.

He knew that he would definitely not be able to invite her, but if his father invited him in person, his mother might be willing.

Prince Consort Xun said coldly, "It is our duty to respect our elders. She even wants me to ask for this. It's okay if she doesn't ask for it."

Xun Yibo could see that his father still hoped that his mother would take the initiative to get close to the Xun family.

He quietly went to Dongyang again, "Mom, dad is very happy that our ancestor can come to our house. If mom goes out to meet our ancestor, dad will definitely be very happy."

Dongyang said angrily, "They are happy, what about me? Who cares about my face?"

Xun Yibo looked at his duplicitous mother and had to leave in anger.

At the beginning of noon, Qiu Wangzhi came with Qiu Yuhan.

Xunxiang originally thought that Qiu Yuhan would be brought here by the wet nurse like before, but she didn't expect Qiu Wangzhi to come in person.

Qiu Yuhan was clamoring for Feifei as soon as she arrived. She was not like Brother Qian, who was happy to see Feifei flying in the sky. She wanted to hug him, but when she couldn't, she would cry with her mouth shut.

A few half-grown boys were too embarrassed to argue with a little girl, so they let Feifei and Heiwa play with her and Brother Qian. They went to the house to drink tea and eat desserts.

Among these people, except Xun Xiang and Qiu Wangzhi, who were very close to each other, and Xun Qianli, Xun Yibo and Sun Yumun could talk to Qiu Wangzhi for a few words, no one else was willing to associate with him.

One is that his profession is unpleasant, and no one wants to deal with the Jinwu Guard's governor. One is that he is withdrawn and unwilling to deal with these people.

Xun Yibo's personality dictates that he can get along with anyone. Xun Qianli has a professional relationship, and Jingzhao Mansion and Jinwu Guard sometimes collaborate on cases. Sun Yumu is the emperor's personal guard, and Qiu Wangzhi is the emperor's confidant...

After several people politely said a few words to Qiu Wangzhi, Qiu Wangzhi sat alone in the corridor and watched his daughter playing with Feifei.

Qiu Yuhan asked Feifei to perform various unique skills, making the two little people giggle.

Thank you Menghui Moganshan for the reward, and thank you for your monthly votes.
