Koi adopted daughter jumps over the farm gate

Chapter 819 Lotus Pond

The marriage between the fifth child of the Bai family and Cuicui was quickly decided.

Liu Hong's wife, Mrs. Xu, thought that her niece's marriage should be announced widely, so that Cuicui and Bai Zhaomei in the province would be remembered all day long. In addition, Liu Hong has been in the capital for a while, and the Liu family has not entertained guests once.

Mrs. Xu discussed it with her eldest sister, Mrs. Liu, and planned to take the opportunity to hold a banquet and invite officials and families who had social contacts in the capital.

The current house of the Liu family has a lake where lotus flowers bloom in midsummer, which is quite reminiscent of the Huaicheng Lotus Festival.

Therefore, the theme of Xu's banquet this time was lotus appreciation.

The first post was naturally addressed to the Bai family.

In addition to the Bai family, there are also the Zhongjing Hou Mansion, the Wu family, and Liu Hong's colleagues. Although the Fan Mansion and the Zhenguo Mansion do not deal with the Bai family, and although the Xu family shares the same hatred with the Bai family, they still give in to these two families for the sake of appearance. Post.

Xu didn't even plan for people from these two families to come.

After all, these two families also know that Bai Zhaomei and Cuicui are getting married. As the Liu family is Cuicui's backer, they would not cause trouble for the Liu family and the Bai family if they knew anything.

Little Fuyuan was dressed up by Mrs. Zhen early in the morning, wearing light clothes, and went to Liu's house with the female members of the Bai family.

Liu Shu had been waiting at the door early, and smiled so hard when he saw Xiao Fuyuan.

"Sister, you are here." Liu Shu shouted.

"Sister, why don't you wait for me." Before Xiao Fuyuan could talk to Liu Shu, Feng Zhiheng stabbed him diagonally, took Xiao Fuyuan's hand and walked towards Liu's house.

Liu Shu:......

"The county lord."

Xiao Fuyuan entered the courtyard of the Liu family and found that Mandan, the young leader of the Rong Kingdom, was also there.

"Mandan, are you here too?" Xiao Fuyuan greeted Mandan.

It is not unusual for Mandan to attend the family banquet of the officials of the Xia Kingdom. Anyway, the entire Rong Kingdom is under the control of the Xia Kingdom, so Mandan is relatively free in the capital. He often goes to the Bai family to play with Xiao Fuyuan from time to time, but Mandan comes The Liu family's participation in the banquet was beyond Xiao Fuyuan's expectation.

The relationship between Mandan and Liu Hong is not that good, right?

Moreover, as a governor, Liu Hong would not be able to make friends with the leader of a foreign country, even if the other party was a child.

"Sister, Mandan is my friend, I invited him here." Liu Shu said with a smile.

It turns out that before the last palace banquet, Liu Shu spoke out for Mandan and Mandan and Liu Shu became friends.

"Don't worry, sister, my father has already told the emperor that Mandan came to my house." Liu Shu whispered in Xiao Fuyuan's ear.

"Princess, let's go over there to enjoy the flowers." Mandan said to Xiao Fuyuan.

"Is there no lotus in your Rong country?" Xiao Fuyuan asked Mandan as he walked.

Mandan nodded and said with a smile: "This is the first time I have seen so many lotus flowers."

Liu Shu followed behind and tried to push Mandan away, but failed several times. Instead, he stepped on Feng Zhiheng's foot and was scolded by Feng Zhiheng several times.

Liu Shu had a heart attack.

In the past, he envied A Zhen for living opposite Xiao Fu Yuan, but now A Zhen cannot leave the palace at will. He thought he could finally play with Xiao Fu Yuan alone, but he didn't expect that he would interfere with Mandan again.

He regretted inviting Mandan to his home for the lotus appreciation party.

The lotus flowers in the Liu family are blooming very well. The green lotus leaves make the whole summer seem less hot, and the lotus flowers swaying in the wind bring wisps of lotus fragrance which makes people feel more relaxed and happy.

Liu Shu ordered his servants to bring in bamboo rafts and boats, and called the boat girl to punt the boats. He planned to take Xiao Fuyuan and others down to the lotus pond to enjoy the flowers.

"Sister, do you want to take a boat or a bamboo raft?" Liu Shu asked Xiao Fuyuan's opinion.

"Bamboo raft." Xiao Fuyuan said.

"Exactly what I thought." He said.

So several children got on the bamboo raft. Mandan, who had never left the depths of the desert before, sat on the bamboo raft for the first time. He curiously pulled little Fuyuan and asked around.

"Where is my sister Qiu?" Xiao Fuyuan asked Mandan.

"My aunt was summoned into the palace by the Queen Mother and said that Princess Taiping was making trouble again." Mandan said.

Princess Taiping is naturally Chen Xuan'er. It's not surprising that she made a fuss, she was not willing to go to the Rong Kingdom in the first place.

A few days ago, when Xiao Fuyuan went to the palace to pay her respects to the Queen Mother, Chen Xuan'er started making a fuss.

However, no matter how much trouble she made, she could not change her fate of going to Rong Kingdom.

Here, Xiao Fuyuan and his children are sitting on bamboo rafts admiring lotus flowers, while over there the Bai family is chatting with Mrs. Xu.

"Good sister, this is my first time to hold a banquet in the capital. Please help me greet it. I also want to go to the kitchen behind to have a look."

As the wife at the top of the pyramid in Huaicheng, Xu could hold a banquet without much effort, but when she arrived at the foot of the imperial city, she couldn't show it.

The people who came today were either rich or noble, and she couldn't handle it because her relatives were cheating on her relatives, so she asked Zhen, who had grown up in the capital, for help.

"Sister, don't worry, I'll greet you. You go about your business first." Mrs. Zhen responded readily.

Mrs. Xu looked grateful.

"Oh Mom, why are they here?" You Jingui saw Fan Lingyi and Zhen Jiqiu coming, followed closely by Chen Jing'er and Niu Niu.

"I posted a message to Zhen and Fan's family. I thought they wouldn't come." Mrs. Xu was also a little surprised.

Mrs. Zhen said steadily: "No one is coming, there are so many people and it's so lively."

"I really didn't expect Miss Fan to come too." Mrs. Xu said.

Not only was it beyond Xu's expectation, but it was also beyond the expectations of other guests.

Fan Lingyi is about to go to the Rong Kingdom to get married. At this time, instead of learning the rules at home, she ran out. She really hasn't changed her past temper at all.

"Why is she here?"

"That's why she is here."

Several noble ladies couldn't help but murmured, but Fan Lingyi heard it. Fan Lingyi said loudly: "Why can't I come?"

Fan Lingyi's remaining power is still there, but as soon as she opens her mouth, her other daughters shut up.

"It's too late for me to be happy that Miss Fan can come." As the host, Mrs. Xu smiled and ordered people to serve tea, but she secretly complained in her heart. The young leader of the Rong Kingdom was in the lotus pond. I don't know how long these two people have met. What kind of trouble will happen in the Liu family?

"Auntie, why don't you see your little cousin?" Fan Lingyi asked as she glanced around the guests.

"She is admiring lotus flowers in the backyard." Mrs. Zhen said.

"Why is sister Ah Heng missing?" Fan Lingyi asked Xiao Fuyuan and then asked Feng Zhiheng.

Anyway, now that she is the future queen of the Rong Kingdom, she is so domineering that the Zhongjing Hou Mansion has to give her some face.

"A Heng and Princess Furong are over there at the lotus pond." Mrs. Zhou of Zhongjing Hou Mansion was too lazy to argue with Fan Lingyi and pointed in the direction of the lotus pond.

Fan Lingyi nodded and took Zhen Jiqiu to the lotus pond.

"Grandma!" Niu Niu let go of Chen Jing'er's hand and ran to Zhen's side, and was hugged by Xie Chuntao.

"I also want to go and play with my little cousin." Niu Niu said.

Xie Chuntao called the maid and asked her to take Niu Niu to the lotus pond to find Xiao Fuyuan.

"Little cousin."

Niuniu came to the lotus pond, saw the bamboo rafts in the lotus pond, and waved to Xiao Fuyuan.

"Niuniu!" Xiao Fuyuan was very happy to see Niuniu.

Fan Lingyi and Zhen Jiqiu heard the noise and came behind Niu Niu.

Xiao Fuyuan frowned when she saw Fan Lingyi.

"Hey, isn't that your queen?"

Liu Shu pointed at Fan Lingyi and said to Mandan.
