Chapter 24

Yijia and Zhou Yihan arrived at Anping Hou Mansion very early, Liang Mingyue received the letter, and personally took the nanny and the eldest maid to the door to pick them up.

Zhou Yihan's mother, Ran's family, and Aunt Ran's Aunt Ran of Anping Hou's Mansion are family sisters, so she and Liang Mingyue can continue their marriage if they turn a corner, and because of Liang Mingxuan, she always flatters Liang Mingyue in every way.

When I got out of the carriage and saw someone, I immediately walked up with a smile, "Sister Mingyue! Why did you come to meet us at the door? It's so cold in the morning, and it's my sister again. You don't need to work. .”

Liang Mingyue is 14 years old this year, one year older than Zhou Yihan.

Liang Mingyue shook her hand and said with a smile: "I was still worried about today's banquet. You are here, so you can help me." Seeing Yijia get off the carriage, she let go of her hand again , Going up to Yijia to welcome her. "Yijia, you are here! With you and Yihan helping me today, I don't have to worry at all!" He asked again: "Why didn't you bring Yiwan?"

Yijia walked in with her, and said: "Yiwan can't live without her aunt, and she's too young, so my aunt is also afraid that I won't be able to take care of her."

Liang Mingyue nodded, agreeing with this very much.Seeing Yijia wearing the jewelry she gave at Treasure Square a few days ago, she was even more happy, and repeatedly praised how beautiful it was.

Yijia came so early, in fact, it was Xiao Song and Zhou Chengyan's confession, and they wanted her to help Liang Mingyue.It would be best if he could help Liang Mingzhi chat with the ladies of various families, so as to know the temperament of the girls, so that Liang Mingzhi would not end up marrying a wife who would not let the family live in peace.This is also because there is no decent hostess in the backyard of the Marquis of Anping. Although Mrs. Ran Fang is in charge of the house now, she is not qualified to manage the marriage of the eldest son.And Liang Mingzhi's maternal ancestor's family is far away in Yangzhou, so even if Liang Mingyue invited them to visit the garden today, she can only make arrangements by herself.

Thinking that she was his wife in the previous life, and she was going to choose a wife for him in this life, Yijia thought it was funny.

Seeing Liang Mingyue and Yijia being so affectionate, Zhou Yihan's eyes flickered and her face was full of displeasure.But this is in the Hou Mansion, she can't lose her temper without talking about it, and she can't let Liang Mingyue see that she is unhappy.So he took a deep breath on the spot, forced a smile on his face, and ran up to hug Liang Mingyue's arm on the other side.

Curiously said: "Did you invite a lot of guests today? Why do you still want us to help you? Does your family care about it?"

Liang Mingyue sighed helplessly, "Where is anyone in charge? My father is in poor health and has been staying in the house for a long time. My mother left early again. Fortunately, my eldest brother pointed me to some capable women, otherwise I would Really can't do it."

Invite the girls to the house as guests, and everything must be taken care of.

Where to hold a banquet, which snacks, drinks, and fruits to prepare for the banquet, which dishes to cook when eating, and which soups to prepare. It is said that it is a garden tour. In addition to looking at the flowers and plants in the garden, you have to think about what to do. head.This one by one, isn't it just a waste of time and energy, even though Liang Mingyue is already fourteen, this is the first time that Liang Mingyue has invited someone to visit her house in a serious way.

Fortunately, her aunt was the big girl next to Mrs. Hou's Fang family back then. She has seen and heard a lot, so she can help a little today.Otherwise, a concubine from the Hou's mansion, without a hostess, would be a little bit hard after all, even if she was smarter and learned a little more.

What's more, there is Aunt Ran, who always gets in the way.

Seeing that Liang Mingyue was in a low mood, Yi Jia persuaded, "They are all sisters who can have fun on a daily basis, so there is no need to worry too much. Everyone jokes and chats together, and a day will pass."

Liang Mingyue gave Yijia a grateful smile, but Zhou Yihan said inappropriately: "Isn't there still Mrs. Ran Fang? With her here, what else does sister need to worry about? My mother said that Mrs. Ran Fang is very capable."

Liang Mingyue has always had a good temper, but when Zhou Yihan said this, she became unhappy.Aunt Ran is an aunt just like my aunt, if something like this really needs someone to talk about it, why is it Aunt Ran and not my aunt?
Fortunately, Zhou Yihan still remembered to add a side, if she directly said it was Mrs. Ran, Liang Mingyue would probably be annoyed right now.But even so, what he said was not very pleasant, "I invited you to play, how can she come here as an aunt."

The implication is that this is a gathering of serious young ladies, and an aunt is not qualified to come and make trouble.

Seeing Liang Mingyue finished speaking and dragging Yijia away quickly, Zhou Yihan was stunned for a moment before thinking of the key point, and couldn't help scolding herself in her heart before catching up again.

After Si time, the people Liang Mingyue invited came here scattered.

Although Liang Mingyue is a concubine, she comes from the Marquis Mansion and is the only concubine in Anping Marquis Mansion, so her identity is naturally different from the common concubine daughters of the Marquis Mansion.Moreover, the two young masters of the Hou's mansion were not yet married, so some concubine daughters who were somewhat arrogant also came to the two young masters of the Liang family.

Of the two young masters of the Liang family, it is really difficult to choose one to be the husband-in-law.

Liang Mingzhi is a serious and decent eldest son, but he is in poor health, and there are rumors that he is a man.As for Liang Mingxuan, he is capable of both civil and military skills, but he is recorded under the name of his aunt as his son. It would be better if his biological mother was gone, but Aunt Ran is still alive and well.If she married Liang Mingxuan, even if she became Mrs. Hou smoothly in the future, many people would look down on her if she had to serve a not-so-serious aunt and mother-in-law.

But if Liang Mingxuan wants to inherit the Hou Mansion in the future, even if he is not the nephew of the imperial concubine or empress, it is absolutely impossible for him to marry a concubine.

The ladies and maids from all families gathered together in the Liufang Water Pavilion in the Hou Mansion, scented tea, snacks and fruits were served early, but there are some people who don’t know each other, led by Liang Mingyue, who will help introduce them one by one. .

This place is bustling with excitement, a little maid hurriedly came to report: "Miss, Princess Lemin is here!"

Whispering voices immediately came from the waterside pavilion. Everyone here has heard of the reputation of Princess Cheng Min. To put it mildly, she is innocent, but to put it ugly, she is arrogant and self-willed. Relying on the fact that her mother is the first-born princess, and relying on the fact that the current emperor is right Her doting, almost most of the ladies in Beijing have suffered from her.

Unexpectedly, Liang Mingyue would invite her here!

Liang Mingyue was also taken aback. The eldest brother told her today, telling her to invite her good friends over, and then secretly ask the second brother to take a look.The second brother is already fifteen this year, and it's time to get married, after all, he is different from the eldest brother.

She knew that Princess Chengmin would not understand the meaning of her banquet, so even if she sent a post, she felt that Princess Chengmin would not come, but who would have thought that she would come anyway.

Still so insolent!

Before she went out to greet her, Le Chengmin arrived in red clothes. She was wearing red boots and holding a red riding whip. Although she was ten years old and hadn't grown yet, she was born in the royal family after all, and she had the aura of a water pavilion. The youngest daughter of the sitting prime minister's family is far behind.

She stopped by the waterside pavilion, flicked the big red whip on the ground twice, and said to Liang Mingyue, "Why, I'm not welcome?"

Although the two knew each other, they were only nodding acquaintances, so it was not really a welcome.

Liang Mingyue hurriedly stepped out of the water pavilion to meet her, and said with a smile, "Princess Cheng Min is honored to come here. I like it before it's too late. How can I not welcome you. I'm so happy, I was a little stunned for a while."

Le Chengmin curled his mouth, "hypocrisy." He looked at the ladies in the water pavilion with bony eyes, and saw those who had been bullied by her or not, all stood up respectfully, and there was a faint tendency to come over Seeing the ceremony, he curled his lips again and said "boring!"

Liang Mingyue really didn't know what to say for a while.After a while, he said: "Princess, how about..."

"No need!" He was interrupted by Le Chengmin before he finished speaking, "Where is your elder brother? I'm here to look for him today, tell me the place, and I'll go find him!"

Although she is only ten years old, it is really rare for a girl from a large family to meet a foreigner so confidently.

Many people in the water pavilion had a flash of disdain in their eyes, and Zhou Yihan, who was standing next to Yijia, had been suffocated in the early morning, and now she couldn't help it anymore, and whispered, "Shameless!"

The voice is not loud, and there are whispers next to it, and there is no sense of presence.

But Le Chengmin heard it.

Walking to the edge of the water pavilion in two steps, the big red horsewhip swung towards the steps, causing the girls to back up a few steps, and then pointed at Zhou Yihan and said: "What did you say just now, say it again!"

She was afraid of offending Liang Mingyue, let alone the famous Princess Cheng Min.

Zhou Yihan's calf trembled in fright, and she was about to kneel down.

The public is not afraid of losing the Zhou family's reputation!

Yijia cursed secretly, quickly grabbed Zhou Yihan's arm, then turned her head to Le Chengmin and said, "What a coincidence, Princess Chengmin, do you still remember me?"

"Huh——" Le Chengmin tapped his head with a whip, and then said, "You are that brave Zhou Yijia!"

Yijia nodded with a smile.

Le Chengmin immediately forgot the anger of the last moment, and said with a tiger face: "What kind of official position is your father? Why didn't you tell me your father's name last time, but I went back and thought for a long time and couldn't remember him. In the end, I couldn’t post a post for you!” After finishing speaking, he laughed and said happily, “I didn’t expect to meet you today, we are really destined!”

Yijia said: "It's my fault, my father, Guozijian sacrificed wine, Zhou Chengyan."

Le Chengmin liked the straightforwardness of her words very much, waved his hands indifferently, and said: "It's okay, I will go to your house with you later, just remember your door." Then said: "Go, you and me together Go see Liang Mingzhi!"

Seeing that she was safe, Zhou Yihan didn't care about anything else, and pushed Yijia out.

Le Chengmin took her hand, walked up to Liang Mingyue, and said condescendingly, "Lead the way!"

Liang Mingyue didn't even have time to call a little maid to inform her, she was frightened by the whip in Le Chengmin's hand, and obediently led them to Hongyan Hall.
