Chapter 868: Kick the scumbag, peach blossoms bloom 7

The eldest princess's birthday banquet was held, and the families of officials above the fourth rank in the capital were invited.

Just for this birthday banquet, the eldest princess not only renovated her princess mansion, but also specially invited the chef from the Jixiang Restaurant to prepare the banquet.

Nowadays, Jixiang Restaurant is fully booked every day, and the private rooms and pavilions are booked until the beginning of next month.

It's the lobby. If you go late, there will be no seats.

If you take a day off, you will lose a lot of money.

In other words, the eldest princess has great influence, and others may not be able to invite the chef of Jixiang Restaurant.

Nowadays, if you can invite a chef from the Jixiang Restaurant to hold a birthday banquet, it is truly a symbol of status.

The Su family also received an invitation, and Su Yan was woken up by his mother early in the morning to dress up.

Judging from the energy of Su's mother, she probably wants to leave a deep impression on her in front of everyone so as to prepare for future meetings.

Su Yan dressed up according to his favorite style, and his mother and father were very satisfied with this.

She is a little fairy who doesn't steal the spotlight too much but just shows off her agility and beauty perfectly.

Su Yan and his mother rode in a carriage to the princess's mansion early, preferring to arrive early rather than late. Master Su had always been favored by the emperor, but the Su family never thought highly of themselves and were always low-key, humble and kind to others.

As soon as the Su family entered the princess's mansion, they were welcomed to the East Garden, which was the main courtyard in the backyard.

Su Yan paid his respects to the eldest princess. Seeing Su Yan's expression, the eldest princess showed admiration and joy in her eyes.

Most women at that time were generous and magnanimous, and the eldest princess had a good first impression of Su Yan.

"The young lady of the Su family is indeed worthy of her reputation. I have heard people say that the Su family has a little fairy. Today I see that she is indeed worthy of her reputation. Come here, kid, and talk to me."

"Yes." Su Yan walked over confidently.

Upon seeing this, the eldest princess took off the icy jade bracelet on her hand and wanted to give it to Su Yan.

Su Yan was naturally embarrassed to accept it, and quickly refused, "Thank you, Princess, for your kindness. This is too expensive, Su Yan can't afford it."

The eldest princess took her hand and insisted on putting it on her, smiling kindly and saying, "I like you when I see you. It doesn't matter whether I can afford it or not. I can't refuse a gift from an elder."

Su Yan looked at Madam Su, and Madam Su nodded. Su Yan then accepted it embarrassedly.

The eldest princess sighed, "Madam Su is so lucky to have such a beautiful and sensible daughter. It's a pity that she is engaged to someone else, otherwise I would have wanted to have her as my daughter-in-law."

Madam Su and Su Yan smiled awkwardly and just said that the princess was joking.

Just after receiving the gifts, someone from the doorman came to announce that Mrs. Lu had arrived with Miss Lu II and Miss Xue.

The eldest princess knew about the engagement between the Su and Lu families, and thought that the two families were very close, so she notified someone to come in.

Just a few minutes later, a maid came in with Madam Lu, Second Miss Lu, and Xue Caiyue.

Among the three, Xue Caiyue's dress was the most eye-catching, and somewhat different from the women nowadays.

If there is any difference, it is probably that her makeup prefers bean style and she wears a little more revealing clothes than others.

In this era, women were very free in how they dressed. They could wear men's clothes when walking outside and be called a lady. They could also wear a shoulder-baring skirt, and of course they would cover it with a gauze dress, which would reveal the beauty of a woman's figure.

Xue Caiyue was wearing a sleeveless halter dress with a gauze shawl on the outside.

It is more revealing than a strapless skirt, but it is not unacceptable.

In this era, it is considered a very avant-garde outfit.

Wearing such slightly sexy clothes on a day like the eldest princess' birthday party seems a little frivolous.

The eldest princess glanced at her calmly and only spoke to Madam Lu and Second Miss Lu. She had no intention of paying any attention to Xue Caiyue.

When Xue Caiyue saw Su Yan, who was wearing a pink and white dress with layered skirt fluttering in the wind and looked as elegant as an immortal, she suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

Why is Su Yan dressed so elegantly today? Is she deliberately going against me?

Xue Caiyue felt ignored and felt uncomfortable, and she also didn't want to be laughed at by Su Yan.

He took the initiative to step forward and offer his treasure, saying, "This is a set of Banyan Tree Four Seasons Spring Rouge and Powder that Caiyue made especially for the princess. Applying it can make the skin smooth and fair, and it also has the effect of moisturizing and nourishing the skin."

The eldest princess said calmly, "Oh, Miss Xue can make her own rouge and powder, but I didn't realize that."

Xue Caiyue took two steps forward and said coquettishly, "Princess, please look at my makeup today. It is the effect of using this set of rouge and powder."

Xue Caiyue's makeup is indeed well applied, and it looks like she is wearing no makeup at all. If you don't look closely, you will find that her skin is as white as cream. It is really as the ancients said, "her lips are red without any makeup, and her eyebrows are green without any drawing."

Of course, she is not very old now, and it is also the age when a woman's skin is at its best. The eldest princess was skeptical.

There were other people nearby who were curious about how her rouge and powder were made. Some even pointed out that her rouge and powder did not look as exquisite as Su Furong's rouge.

"I remember that Su Ji's rouge boxes were all carved with flowers of the four seasons. The fragrance and color were light but not alluring, beautiful but not glamour. I've only been using it for half a month, and I feel my skin is smoother than before."

"Yes, yes, I recently sent someone to buy a set from the Spring series. After using it, my skin became much smoother and whiter than before. I was just about to ask if you have ever used the rouge from this store."

"Of course I did. My daughter insisted on buying four sets of clothes for spring, summer, autumn and winter. She didn't need so many. But she told me that even if she didn't use them, it would be a good gift for her relatives."

"That's right. My niece used to be introverted and didn't like to go out. After going to this rouge shop and learning how to put on hibiscus makeup, she loves going out shopping and has become more confident."

"It turns out that everyone has used this store's products. I said that I would take this opportunity to introduce some good products to everyone."

Several ladies burst into laughter.

The ladies all had their own opinions on rouge and powder, and when they talked about the recently popular Su Furong rouge shop, the topic suddenly shifted to this new rouge shop.

Who still remembers Xue Caiyue who took out the rouge set and thought she would make a big splash.

Xue Caiyue originally wanted to introduce how much care she put into making the rouge and powder, how much effort she put into it, and how good the result was, but who knew that a Su Furong Rouge Shop suddenly appeared.

She felt that the things in this rouge shop were definitely not as good as hers, but these ancient people were ignorant and had little experience, so they thought they had encountered some rare treasure.

Xue Caiyue coughed and continued to introduce her rouge.

Unfortunately, the eldest princess was completely attracted by Madam Su's rouge and powder. She responded to her words perfunctorily, raised her hand and asked someone to take the gift and put it on the gift table beside her.

Xue Caiyue was secretly annoyed, thinking that when you know the benefits of this rouge, she might not be willing to do it even if you beg her.

Humph, just wait and see. Now that you are ignoring me, I will make it impossible for you to reach me in the future.

When she turned around and saw Su Yan standing beside her with a gentle smile, she became even more angry. She was made a fool of by Su Yan today, and she would definitely take revenge for what she had done today someday.

The one who is not loved is the mistress. Does she think that she can show off to Brother Lu just because she is engaged to him?

Sooner or later, she will be a poor woman who is forgotten in the backyard. She can be proud for a moment but not for a lifetime.
