Chapter 224 Flower Appreciation Banquet

Xia Daohua opened the envelope and saw that inside the envelope was a beautiful piece of paper sprinkled with gold, with a scent of orchid incense on it.

It turned out that Xie Fanglan, the seventh daughter of the county magistrate's family, was going to hold a flower viewing party on February 15th, the Flower Festival, and specially posted a message to invite Xia Daohua to attend.

Xia Daohua was a little surprised. The seventh lady from the county magistrate's family seemed to have no friendship with her.

She looked through the customer information records and discovered that this seventh lady was actually the first customer to buy something from the store besides the opening guests she invited on the opening day.

The slender young lady wore a curtain on her head and was followed by two maids.

Why would she want to invite herself to a flower viewing party?

Xia Daohua suddenly became interested.

However, she had never participated in such a banquet in this time and space, so she didn't know if she would make a joke. However, after thinking about it, it didn't matter whether she made a joke or not.

After all, my soul is an adult, do I still care about what some children think?

She tried hard to search through her memory for the novels she had read and the web pages she had browsed in her previous life. It seemed that the etiquette of this kind of banquet was not explained in too much detail...

Forget it, let nature take its course!

With this in mind, Xia Daohua prepared a set of balsam gift boxes with four-season flowers as souvenirs.

The gift box was specially made by Xia Daohua. It was made of thin wood, painted with red paint, and engraved with hollow flower patterns.

There are twelve small round iron boxes inside.

The lid of the small iron box is printed with twelve different kinds of flowers, which are lifelike and exquisite.

In the small iron box, there are twelve kinds of balsams with different fragrances, soft texture and different colors.

Xia Daohua felt that since it was a flower viewing party, the souvenir she brought was related to flowers, so it should be appropriate for the occasion!

On the day of the Flower Festival, Xia Daohua brought her souvenirs and arrived early at the venue of the flower viewing banquet. The county magistrate’s house was located in the villa of the county magistrate on the outskirts of Jixiang County: Xianmei Garden.

Taking the post in hand, I entered the garden gate easily.

There was a little girl in the Xie family who had just grown her head. Her steps were regular and her face was cute and cute, leading the way. Xia Daohua followed the little maid who was leading the way and walked in, and soon she saw a large field of plum blossoms in full bloom.

In the sea of ​​fragrant snow, plum trees are planted all over. When the flowers bloom, they are fresh and crystal clear, with a fragrant fragrance, and are as white as snow.

When Xia Daohua saw this beautiful scenery, she couldn't help but admire it.

It is hard to accept the garden art of the ancients. The county magistrate is just a magistrate, so this courtyard can be so beautiful.

If it were the homes of princes and nobles, what an intoxicating scenery it would be?

Passing through the plum grove, walking into a nine-curved corridor, passing by three rockeries, two waterfronts, and four pavilions, we finally arrived at the banquet place.

Xie Fanglan saw Xia Daohua and hurriedly greeted her:

"Ms. Xia."

"Thank you, madam."

The two of them each smiled and happily bowed to each other. After sorting out their seats, they sat down to have tea and talk.

The little maid who had just led the way arrived at the place and quietly turned around and left.

A maid who is older, wearing a double bun, a uniform color of lake blue shirt, autumn fragrant-colored bijia, a moon-white threaded skirt, and a thin blue waistband, comes up to make tea.

Water, place tea fruits, and serve them diligently.

Seeing this behavior, Xia Daohua couldn't help but think of the costume TV series she watched in her previous life.

Xia Daohua put the souvenir she brought on the table and pushed it towards Xie Fanglan:

"Since it's a flower viewing party, I'll join in the fun. The knick-knacks in the store are not worth much, they are just for the occasion. If Madam Xie has any extra fragrances you like, you can tell me and I will give them to you later.

They do."

Xie Fanglan took the gift box with a smile and praised: "Ms. Xia, what a clever idea. But in the future, we will have to come and go frequently. Ming Xia should not waste money like this."

Xie Fanglan invited a few guests, and Xia Daohua was the first to arrive.

Xie Fanglan said a few words to Xia Daohua, and then someone came again. She stood up again, warmly, generously, and politely took two steps forward to greet him.

It took a full two-quarters of an hour before the ladies finally arrived.

Among the last group of people who came, Xia Daohua saw a very familiar face.

It is said that he is a relative of the emperor, a little princess who is very favored by the emperor.

When Xia Daohua saw the little princess, she had a vague idea of ​​why she was invited.

This little princess appeared in Beiguan Town more than two months ago.

She was one of Gu Mingzhen's two juniors. However, at that time, she was dressed as a man.

After all, he was a child and didn't speak much. Xia Daohua didn't realize at all at the time that this person was actually not a young man, but a young lady.

The little princess's name was Gu Shanrou. When she saw Xia Daohua, she asked her with a smile: "Sister Xia, are you living well in Jixiang County? Are you still used to it?"

Xia Daohua nodded: "Not bad. Jixiang County is a good place."

Gu Shanrou smiled and said, "I heard that Sister Xia opened a store called Daohuaxiang? Is the business going well?"

Xia Daohua could hear that there was only pure concern in the little princess's words, so she also smiled and replied: "Thank you for your concern, Princess. Thanks to you, the store's business is not bad. It has only been open for more than two months, and it is already good."

The balance of payments is balanced.”

Gu Shanrou smiled and said: "Sister Xia is really capable. I also have a yard nearby, and I will come here to escape the heat in the summer. If Sister Xia has some free time, please visit me often."

Xia Daohua responded: "Yes. As long as you don't mind the noise of Daohua."

When others saw Gu Shanrou being so kind to Xia Daohua, they couldn't help but be a little concerned.

Everyone else came and went frequently, Xia Daohua and Gu Shanrou were new faces. But Gu Shanrou wore the official uniform of a princess, and others knew her identity at a glance.

Xia Daohua, on the other hand, wore very simple civilian attire, so everyone speculated about the background of this little lady.

When they heard that Xia Daohua opened a store, some people thought she was a merchant, and contempt appeared in their eyes involuntarily.

Xia Daohua didn't explain either.

She can't influence what others think, and she doesn't mind.

There's no need to expend that effort.

If they fall in love with each other, they will naturally become friends. If they despise her simply because of their status, they are probably not people worth getting to know.

Xie Fanglan's attitude towards Xia Daohua was warm and generous, and there was no trace of dissatisfaction or contempt.

Xia Daohua felt that this trip to the banquet was very rewarding because she not only enjoyed the beautiful scenery but also got to know Xie Fanglan and Gu Shanrou.

When Xie Fanglan saw that everyone was here, and the familiar people had been communicating with each other for a while, she got up and invited everyone to walk together to enjoy the flowers, and then sit down and listen to the play.

More than a dozen young ladies, except for Xia Daohua, each was accompanied by one or two maids, and a large group of people walked towards the depths of Xianmei Garden.

The chapter has been replaced. Good night, sweet dreams, and see you tomorrow.
