Chapter 1065 False good intentions

In a blink of an eye, the day came when the Li family held a flower appreciation banquet. In the name of Mrs. Li, the Li family invited many ladies and daughters from the capital, of course there were more ladies.

It is said that clouds are like clothes and flowers are like faces. Although little girls also love beauty, in terms of beauty, women at this age are definitely not as demanding as they are. Therefore, the target customers of the beauty salon are aristocratic women in Beijing.

Early in the morning, Bai Ruozhu and Fang Guizhi went out dressed beautifully. Today, whether they were wearing clothes or jewelry, they looked very ordinary at first glance. But as long as a truly discerning person pays a little attention, they will find that the materials used are of little value. Fei, for example, the Yun brocade on Bai Ruozhu is very expensive, especially the Xia brocade among the Yun brocades she wears.

The material looks white and very pure, but when the sun shines on it, it will reflect different luster at different angles, which is what modern people call color change. It can be said to be both elegant and pure, and colorful.

Therefore, a quick glance at the two of them makes people feel that they are dressed very comfortably, yet plain and unassuming. But if you look closely, you can also find the mystery behind it. It can be said to be low-key luxury.

Fang Guizhi was very careful when she got on the carriage. She held the hem of her skirt with one hand and protected the hairpin on her head with the other. She looked a little funny, and Bai Ruozhu behind her couldn't help laughing.

"If you had made such expensive clothes and hair accessories, I would have felt bad for fear of damaging them." Fang Guizhi muttered.

"There is no way. The ladies in the capital value this, and they value status and equipment even more than Beiyu City. If we are too ordinary, they don't believe that we can make them more beautiful. The right people should dress like Buddha. That's why you want gold equipment." Bai Ruozhu smiled and pulled her hand down, "Relax, I won't let you pay if it breaks, I made two more sets for you."

Fang Guizhi opened his mouth, "Don't, don't be so extravagant and wasteful."

"This is not called extravagance. From now on, when you stay in the beauty salon, this can be considered your work clothes. This investment is deserved." Bai Ruozhu said with a smile.

As the two chatted and laughed, the carriage soon arrived at Li Mansion. Li Mansion did not have high-ranking officials in the capital, nor was it a princely home, but it should not be underestimated. In addition, Mrs. Li was very popular, so she invited many people just after posting. The young lady comes.

There were many carriages parked on the street outside the gate of Li Mansion. Many of these carriages had logos on them. They belonged to princely families. Bai Ruozhu also saw a carriage with the word "Hui" written on it. She guessed it was Hui Lan. The carriage of the eldest princess.

At this time, even if a woman has her own carriage, it will be marked with the emblem of her husband's family. Only princesses with high status have their own special emblem.

Bai Ruozhu frowned slightly. She didn't expect that the Li family also invited Princess Huilan, but it was no wonder that the Li family did not want to mention to Li Wanhua that Princess Huilan had threatened her. Even the outside world thought that Princess Huilan liked her very much. Woolen cloth.

However, she didn't worry too much. Princess Huilan just wanted to save face, so she wouldn't bother her in public. At most, she would just stumble a little secretly.

Not long after the two entered the house, Li Wanhua personally greeted them. She was wearing a purple horse-faced skirt today. The color was a bit heavy, but her upper body was a taro purple short jacket, which suddenly made her look more beautiful. It has a bit of a delicate taste, and the color tone of the whole body is very unified and harmonious, which makes people feel bright.

Bai Ruozhu couldn't help but nod, thanks to the horse-faced skirt of this color. If she changed it to another brighter color, it would look messy.

"You guys came prepared today. I can't even take my eyes away." Li Wanhua came over with a smile, went to Bai Ruozhu's other side and took her arm.

"Stop praising us, you really make our eyes shine." Bai Ruozhu said with a smile.

The three of them walked inside while talking and laughing, and soon arrived at the back garden of Li Mansion. At this moment, the back garden is filled with chrysanthemums of various colors. The gardeners of Li Mansion are also clever and use the different colors of chrysanthemums to create many shapes. Even Bai Ruozhu can't help but look at them a few more times.

Li Wanhua took the two of them to the circle of rich ladies in Beijing, and said to everyone with a smile: "Aren't you very curious about Mrs. Jiang? I have brought someone to you. What new bags do you want to order? Let’s take a chance and ask her.”

Li Wanhua's words instantly brought everyone closer to Bai Ruozhu. Some of them were more straightforward and asked directly: "Mrs. Jiang, is your knitting shop holding a winter press conference soon? You have to leave a place for me."

Bai Ruozhu nodded hurriedly, "Definitely."

Li Wanhua patted her forehead. Not only did her action not appear vulgar, but it actually made people feel refreshing.

"Look at my brain, I should introduce you to Ruozhu, otherwise it will be difficult for her to get invitations." Li Wanhua said.

The woman who spoke before said with a smile: "Then let me introduce myself. My name is Si Yihuan. I look younger than you, so just call me by my name."

Li Wanhua pulled Bai Ruozhu's arm and said, "Yihuan is the granddaughter of the prime minister."

Bai Ruozhu nodded. She remembered that the prime minister's surname was Si, which was rare, so she roughly guessed it after Si Yihuan introduced him.

The two parties greeted each other with courtesy, and then Li Wanhua introduced a group of other people. She was afraid that Bai Ruozhu wouldn't be able to remember, and said, "It's hard to remember when there are so many people. It'll be fine if you get familiar with it slowly."

Bai Ruozhu snickered. In fact, she had remembered everything. Her memory was still very strong. In the subsequent conversation, everyone also saw this.

Not long after, Mrs. Li came over with a group of older women. The young women here stood up and saluted over there. Bai Ruozhu and Fang Guizhi followed the crowd and saluted together. When Mrs. Li saw her, she smiled. Said: "Is this Ruozhu? He's so handsome!"

After she finished speaking, she smiled and said to everyone: "Ruozhu is the god-granddaughter of my aunt, so you have to call me aunt."

Li Wanhua smiled and took her mother's arm and said, "So we hit it off as soon as we met. This is called destiny."

Everyone praised Bai Ruozhu, but Princess Huilan, who was on the other side of Mrs. Li, did not speak. Although she had a smile on her face, her eyes were a little cold.

Bai Ruozhu stepped forward with a smile, blessed Mrs. Li, and said, "Auntie is hosting a flower viewing banquet, and I have nothing to offer. This bottle of pure white jade ointment is my little wish." She said and prepared it. The ink jade bottle was handed over.

Mrs. Li took the pure white jade ointment and didn't think it was anything special. She wanted the maid next to her to help her put it away carefully, but she didn't want Princess Huilan next to her to speak.

"Ruozhu, I heard that something happened in your family recently. Didn't that man named Jiang treat you harshly and promote a wild woman? If you feel wronged, just speak up and I, the princess, will make the decision for you."

"Why would the princess think so? Is there some misunderstanding?" Bai Ruozhu asked in surprise.

Princess Huilan said with a distressed look on her face: "You kid, don't wrong yourself. If you weren't being treated harshly, why would you be so polite..."
