Chapter 40 Banquet (2)
It was the first time for Shengyan Bell to dine in such a rich and elegant place.Small bridges and flowing water, lakes and mountains with strange rocks, blooming flowers, fruit plates, pastries and tea are placed around.

Near the verandah, a girl is holding a peony in her hand, and a girl is standing in front of a red drum engraved with the word "Xingya", holding a drumstick in her hand, obviously beating the drum to pass on the flowers and honor orders.

Seeing them coming, some familiar girls talked to the fifth girl and the other three girls, some just nodded slightly, some raised their smiles and tried to intervene, some stood silently to the side, not caring about the excitement, and some had eyes with eyes. Disdainful, mocking lips.

It was the first time for Sheng Yanling to see the expressions of so many noble girls, so she couldn't help remembering their faces in her heart.It's not for remembering who they are in the future, but because of habit.

——At the beginning when the husband asked her to learn to draw human faces, the first thing she had to learn was the various aspects of human faces.Sometimes she was so crazy about painting that she would sit on the tea stand at the entrance of the alley wearing a veiled hat, watching the people coming and going in the street in a daze.

Each of them has different facial features and expressions, and the combination of facial features and expressions can be regarded as a human face.Later, after pondering a lot, I found that if I want to go deeper, I need to look at more people with different identities.

——She had only seen the various expressions of people in the market before, and this was the first time she had seen the various expressions of noble girls.

Sheng Yanling thought, if she had time to go back, she could draw the face of this kind of noble girl.

Just as she was thinking, Miss Wu had already pulled her to sit down.Their positions were very close to the front, and Miss Huang sat beside them.

The seventeenth girl who just liked "speaking good things on the surface and doing dirty things behind her back" came to them again with a smile, "I'll sit with you, I don't know how to do this, sister Xixi is a famous talented woman, with you, I can do it." Lazy."

The rule in Kyoto is one drink order per table, as long as the girls at that table have a drinking order, it is considered over.

There is nothing wrong with the five girls.On the other hand, Sixteen Niang, who likes to "stimulate dissension" just now, heard the words, and said with a smile: "Seventeen Niang, there is already a small desk, sister Xixi and a girl from the Sheng family, so don't squeeze it."

She smiled.

Seventeen Niang was a bit fat and ordinary-looking.At that time, people considered thinness to be beautiful, and there was a saying of "a thin waist". She couldn't lose weight even if she didn't eat or drink since she was a child.

As time goes by, I feel very inferior and even more sensitive. Some people say this.When Liu Niang said this, she really poked her lungs.But today is the birthday banquet, she didn't dare to really lose her temper, so she could only go back secretly.

But his complexion was already bad.And he stood up abruptly, and sat next to Sixteen Niang, "Then I'll squeeze with Sixteen Sister, and no one in my family will dislike anyone."

Miss Huang quietly said to Sheng Yanling: "So why are you giving birth to so many girls! All of them are concubine daughters, and the aunts don't raise them at all, and let the aunts teach them, so they become such shameless people. Appearance. Seventeen Niang has low self-esteem, can't stand upright in her bones, and is not open-minded, so she has become the temperament that likes to please people but also likes yin people."

Sheng Yanling paused, and said: "...Actually, Seventeen Niang is not fat either."

In their Lingnan, how can this be considered fat?Just the right figure, just a little bigger frame.But Lingnan likes girls with big bones.When a war starts, such a girl can run fast, and she can even run with her family.

Furthermore, in the eyes of Sheng Yanling, Shi Qi Niang is also very good-looking, with a blessed face, which is the favorite appearance of Lingnan ladies.

Miss Huang clicked her tongue, "Even if you are a little fatter, it is nothing in other people's family, but think about it, there are more than a dozen girls in their family! Every one of them likes to compare..."

After all, there are still too many daughters in the family.Rare things are precious, even people are worthless if they are many.

Feast Bell took it for granted.Just as she was about to tell Miss Huang that Shi Qiniang should be born in Lingnan, a female envoy suddenly came over outside and said, "The prince and concubine have arrived."

The girls also stopped drinking, and they all stood up quickly, and the ladies not far away also walked to the door, this is to greet them.

Miss Wu happily said to Sheng Yanling: "The eldest sister must be here too, let's go and have a look."

The feast bell groaned and followed.Li Shi had been looking for them for a long time, and when she saw them coming, she quickly held the hands of the two of them, "See you big sister later."

Sheng Yanling asked curiously, "Will the crown prince come later?"

Mrs. Li shook her head, "No, the crown prince is going to the men's side, we only have the crown princess here."

Seeing Sheng Yanling's disappointed expression, she smiled and said, "Why, do you want to see the prince?"

Sheng Yanling was embarrassed, "That's the prince."

Prince, the crown prince of a country.Only a little less status than the emperor.For a person from such a small place as her, the prince is like the person in the storybooks and drama scripts, and he has never seen a real one.

Li Shi just laughed, "It's normal to see the Crown Princess."

Sheng Yanling sighed, "Yes, I haven't seen the Crown Princess either."

All big shots.

After a while, the crown princess came, and she brought her six-year-old daughter, Princess Chaohua, with her.Mrs. Zhen Guogong took the lead and led a group of people to kneel down, then stood up, and then sat down, but Shengyan Bell did not see the face of the Crown Princess in the end.

Because you can't look up.Everyone lowered their heads slightly, very reserved.And she only came for a quarter of an hour, and then left with Princess Chaohua and Mrs. Zhen Guogong.

She left before the feast bell could raise her head.Li Shi didn't wait for her to take a breath, and quickly dragged her and the fifth girl to the side of the fourth princess.

"This is your big sister!"

Shengyan Bell saluted, "Big Sister."

The fourth concubine embraced Li Shi's hand with a smile, "Aniang, is the banquet bell more beautiful or me?"

Li Shi did not hesitate, "The banquet bell is beautiful."

The fourth concubine and the fifth girl laughed together.Sheng Yanling also smiled embarrassedly, and immediately felt a lot more relaxed.She sincerely felt that her aunt's family was really nice.Either is fine.

——Before I only thought they were good, but after comparing with the outsiders, I think they are better.

Such a home is really rare.

Seeing her clear eyes, the fourth concubine was very happy, and said: "The blood relationship is really strange. In the past, I didn't like little girls, but when I saw you, I was very happy. Don't worry, I know everything about you. I will definitely find you a good husband."

Feast Bell nodded shyly.Even if she wasn't in such a hurry to find a husband-in-law, she was still a little shy to mention this matter in such a public place.

Seeing her appearance, the fifth girl even laughed at her a few words.As a result, I suddenly wanted to go to the toilet.She said: "Don't say too many private things, wait for me to come back."

Li Shi laughed loudly, "Go, go, go."

The fourth concubine pulled the banquet bell and asked her about her affairs in Lingnan, how she was doing in Kyoto, how she was used to today's banquet, and when she was asking her if she liked to read carpentry books, the yard suddenly exclaimed. , faintly heard someone crying, "Master Zhaohua—"

The fourth princess stood up abruptly.There was a commotion in the whole garden, and everyone went to the shouting.Then someone exclaimed, "Sister Xixi——"

Others shouted, "Miss Ning Wu——"

The feast bell was a beat slower, and when the fourth imperial concubine and Mrs. Li hurried forward, she dragged her limp legs in fright to follow.

After walking a lot, we came to a lake.

"Fifth Sister—"

She opened her mouth hoarsely, and saw the fifth girl holding the seventeenth girl in her arms, but Princess Zhaohua was not there.

The two of them were soaking wet, someone had already covered them with clothes and chased away the servants, only female guests were present.

Miss Seventeen still fainted, but her hand was tightly holding on to Miss Fifth's hand.

Mrs. Li and the fourth concubine had already gone to hug Fifth Miss to ask about her injuries. Fifth Miss calmly shook her head, "Mother and eldest sister don't worry, I'm fine, but Shi Qiniang won't let me go, and I don't dare to break it hard, either. I dare not touch her, I have already called the doctor, it will be fine when the doctor comes."

Just as she was talking, she saw the concubine and the concubine in the crowd rushing over, and the concubine of the fourth prince hurried over to speak, and the feast bell came to the fifth girl with a deep foot and a shallow foot.

She couldn't help crying, "Fifth sister, are you sure you're okay?"

Fifth Miss was still joking with her in a low voice at this time, "It's nothing - I'm good at swimming, but Seventeenth Mother...is too heavy."

At this time the doctor had already arrived, so he broke Shi Qiniang's hand away and took her away.Li Shi was going to take the fifth girl to change clothes, but she was worried that Sheng Yanling would stay here, so she took them with her.

Entering the guest room of the Duke of Zhenguo’s mansion, the fifth girl changed her clothes and came out, and sneezed. Mrs. Li hurriedly gave her a bowl of ginger soup brought by the maid just now, and after she drank it, she asked in a low voice, "What's going on? Just go to the lake to save people?"

 A small bug was fixed in the last chapter, the thirteenth girl was changed to the sixteenth girl, and the fourteenth girl was changed to the seventeenth girl.

  Sorry Ang, the computer is broken. I repaired the computer in the past two days and it broke again. I just bought a new one.
