Chapter 594: The soldiers came to cover up the water and the earth

Bai Ruozhu laughed. If the old lady spoke, who would dare to let them enter the Meng Mansion?

"Let's go, it's almost time for us to walk slowly to the banquet." Bai Ruozhu said.

Yu Hongxiu stood up carefully and followed Bai Ruozhu and Fang Guizhi out of the house. At this time, Nanny Lu came over, took two pairs of hand warmers, and said, "The old lady asked me to bring them to you. This plum blossom feast sounds very beautiful, but it's very cold in the winter, so you have to warm your hands." some."

After saying that, she noticed that Bai Ruozhu had brought a young lady with him, and she said a little embarrassedly: "The old lady didn't know that there was another young lady, so she only gave two pairs of warm gloves, and the heater was given to this young lady. Use it."

When Fang Guizhi heard about her, she looked at Bai Ruozhu at a loss and hurriedly. Bai Ruozhu patted her arm gently and said, "Just accept the kindness of Nanny Lu."

"Thank you, Grandma Lu." Fang Guizhi hurriedly took the small hand warmer and said thank you to Grandma Lu.

"I haven't introduced her to Grandma Lu yet. This is my sister Guizhi, the adopted daughter of my parents." Bai Ruozhu explained.

Nanny Lu said that she had only heard that the Bai family had only one daughter. Where did Bai Ruozhu come from? Then she understood what was going on.

Fang Guizhi followed Bai Ruozhu and Yu Hongxiu and left Youranju. She was very silent along the way. She was not nervous, but a little sad.

From today on, everyone outside knows that she is the adopted daughter of the Bai family. It is completely impossible for her and her second brother to get along with each other. But even if she is not the adopted daughter of the Bai family, there is no way she and her second brother can do it. She should have figured it out long ago.

Fang Guizhi sighed silently in her heart. It was because she was wishful thinking, and she couldn't force the relationship. She had thought about it a while ago, but it was difficult to let go immediately.

The three of them quickly arrived at the location of the plum blossom appreciation banquet. Wang Miaoshuang was worthy of being a princess personally granted by the late emperor. The banquet was very particular. Because they wanted to enjoy the plum blossoms outside the house, they also built some exquisite weatherproof sheds with plum blossoms painted on them. , even if you don’t look at the real plum blossoms, just looking at these sheds is pleasing to the eye.

There were tables set up in the shed, tea and snacks had been served, and many guests had already taken their seats.

When Bai Ruozhu got closer, she realized that it was not as cold as she thought. Looking carefully, she found that there were one or two carbon basins next to each table, which were equivalent to modern heating stoves.

At this time, a maid came over, took the three people's posts, and then led them to sit down. The maid brought Bai Ruozhu and Fang Guizhi to the main table, but placed Yu Hongxiu on the table next to the main table, separating the three of them.

It didn't matter, she was just placed at the main table, and she brought someone with her, so she didn't know if she could sit down. She asked the maid in a low voice, and the maid lowered her head slightly and said, "It doesn't matter, there are three extra seats at each table, and there can be additional seats."

Bai Ruozhu nodded with relief this time and gave the maid a reward. She was really afraid that she would have to arrange Guizhi to another table. Guizhi didn't have many acquaintances or friends, so she would be very uncomfortable then.

After a while, two young ladies from the Meng family appeared, and many people greeted them with smiles, especially the eldest lady Meng Jinse. She will be fifteen years old after the new year, and many ladies have already set their sights on her.

But Meng Jinse took her sister Meng Jinxia's hand, walked up to Bai Ruozhu, smiled and blessed her, and said, "Jinse has met Miss Bai."

Meng Jinxia also followed suit, but her look at Bai Ruozhu was a little complicated.

Now even if Beiyu City doesn't know Bai Ruozhu, he knows her to some extent. She was once rumored to have had an affair with the city lord, and was even caught and raped in bed by the city lord's wife. For a while, she was even pushed to the forefront of the limelight. above. But soon the city lord's wife invited many famous ladies in the city to apologize to Bai Ruozhu in public and explain what happened that day, but Bai Ruozhu attracted the attention of others even more.

What kind of temperament does Wang Miaoshuang have? Who among the ladies he has come into contact with doesn't know? To be able to make Wang Miaoshuang apologize in public is definitely not an ordinary person.

Nowadays, even the eldest lady of the Meng family is extremely polite to her. This Bai Ruozhu is really not an ordinary person.

Bai Ruozhu also smiled and blessed Sister Meng Jinse, and then introduced Fang Guizhi beside her, "This is my sister Guizhi. We are about the same age. Let's call her by our names from now on to make her look closer."

Meng Jinse looked happy and sat down next to Bai Ruozhu, "Then please give sister Ruozhu more guidance in the future, especially help my second sister."

Bai Ruozhu's affection for this little girl has improved a bit. Although Meng Jinxia is her concubine, she sincerely cares about Meng Jinxia's health.

Naturally, it would be difficult to spread the news that the second young lady of the Meng family has a heart disease. Otherwise, no matter whether she is cured or not, it will be difficult for her to get married.

Bai Ruozhu nodded to the two of them and said, "I'll treat you to snacks when I have time, and we'll have a good chat then."

Sister Meng Jinse all smiled gratefully at Bai Ruozhu. Guizhi listened in confusion and didn't dare to ask. Bai Ruozhu naturally saw her doubts, but there were so many people here talking, it was inconvenient for her to explain to Guizhi.

It didn't take long for Wang Miaoshuang to arrive, and almost all the guests at the banquet had arrived. Mrs. Li, who opened a fake knitting shop, appeared with her and sat on the main table, opposite Bai Ruozhu.

On Bai Ruozhu's left hand were the Meng sisters, and on her right sat Fang Guizhi. On Fang Guizhi's right was a somewhat familiar lady. The lady greeted Bai Ruozhu with a smile and said, "Miss Bai, I am the eldest lady of the Du family. .”

Bai Ruozhu was stunned for a moment. She nodded hurriedly to Mrs. Du. If she had not brought Guizhi with her, the eldest lady of the Du family would be sitting next to her today.

Before Bai Ruozhu could think about it, Wang Miaoshuang greeted everyone with a smile and said, "Today I am appreciating plum blossoms. Everyone is so cute. I really don't know whether to look at the plum blossoms or where to look."

Many people laughed and said that Mrs. Meng was so good at joking.

At this time, Mrs. Li, who was very beautiful at the main table, said, "I've seen it. Miss Bai's bra is really special. Let's not only appreciate the plum blossoms, but let's see if she can also enjoy the snow."

After hearing this, Wang Miaoshuang smiled and looked at Bai Ruozhu and said, "It's true. Miss Bai really has a delicate heart. Fortunately, she was able to come up with this snowflake pattern. This is the first time I've seen this woven snowflake." Woolen cloth."

Bai Ruozhu was very nervous when the two sang and praised her, so she had to stand up and give them blessings, saying, "Mrs. Meng and Mrs. Li are so complimentary. I just took advantage of my own shop. It was just a coincidence."

Wang Miaoshuang would really praise her to be a ghost. If he really praised her, why did he create a fake Yun Xiangrong behind his back? Is it possible that you have bad intentions when you praise her in public like this?

Thinking of this, Bai Ruozhu couldn't help but cheer up. The soldiers were coming to cover up the water and the soil. She was ready to take the attack!
