However, Wang and these two people had nothing to say, they just said a few words stiffly.
Wang didn't like the second wife, and she blamed Su Ran for making a good wife for the prince. Su Ran didn't bother to talk to her. Only Su Ling said a few words to Wang, and Su Ran listened and occasionally said a few words. Weird and sour words.
Wang just pretended not to see or hear.
Fortunately, nothing happened. Su Fu learned that Su Ran was back, but when she rushed over, she missed her.
"Where's the person?! Where's the grandmother?!"
The maid in the courtyard said: "Madam and Concubine Su Liangdi have gone to Taoyuan, and someone just came here to send word that a banquet is about to be held. Go over and prepare a gift. Four girls, please hurry up."
"A gift? Why didn't I know?!"
"Madam has already sent someone to notify you. The fourth girl came a little faster. I'm afraid they haven't found the fourth girl yet."
Su Fu was anxious to find Su Ran, but she didn't want to be embarrassed at this time, so she had to turn around and go back to Furong Garden. She picked up the birthday gift she had prepared and took her maid to Taoyuan.
This banquet was held in Taoyuan. There was a small stream in the Taoyuan that divided it into two sides, divided into male guests and female guests. There was a banquet for men on the left bank, and a banquet for female guests on the right bank. The two sides added up. , there are more than forty tables of banquets in total.
Fortunately, the yard is big enough to fit it.
There is a stage at the end of the yard, which connects the two sides of the bank. On weekdays, the opera troupe can also be ordered to sing here. Similarly, after being decorated, it has become a ready-made place to celebrate birthdays.
Someone moved a pair of armchairs carved with Ganoderma lucidum and auspicious clouds, and placed a high coffee table in the middle with couplets written on both sides. Duke Jinning and the Wang family sat there and waited for the younger generations to come and present gifts.
Of course, this is also a rule only for birthdays. It is for the sake of the Duke Ning's family. The children and grandchildren below have worked hard to prepare birthday gifts for their elders, so that people can know that the descendants of the Duke Ning's family are endless. The family is rich.
Su Wan was notified by the people sent by the Wang family, so he brought the birthday gifts he had prepared, and then went to Taoyuan with a group of girls. He settled the girls in Taoyuan, and then he met Murong Xian and Su Luo walked to the seats in front of the stage together.
The position of the master's family is arranged relatively forward. As the future granddaughter-in-law of the master's family, Murong Xian is also half of the master's family, and she will also go up to present gifts soon.
Su Wan and Murong Xian had just sat down when they saw Mrs. Li bringing a girl over. She explained: "This is your cousin from the Wang family, your grandmother's grand-niece. She will sit with you soon, and she will also give a gift."
"Weixi, this is your sixth cousin. This is your future eldest cousin-in-law. Her surname is Murong. Just call her Miss Murong."
When Su Wan heard this, she naturally knew that this was her grandmother Wang's family, so she smiled, called her cousin, greeted each other, and then asked her to sit down.
The Wang family's cousin's name is Wei Xi. She is just a few months older than Su Wan. She is a gentle and meticulous girl. It is probably her first time to see such a big scene, so she is a little uneasy.
Wang Weixi looked at Su Wan with envy: "My cousin is so well-born. She is as beautiful as I imagined the daughter of a wealthy woman."
A girl raised by thousands of beauties and nobles is like a finely carved jade, which you cannot look away from once you take one look at it.
"My cousin is so impressed."
"I'm serious, my cousin is pretty." Wang Weixi had a round face, and her face turned slightly red when she spoke, which looked a bit pleasant.
"My cousin is not bad either."
While the two cousins were talking, Murong Xian was feeding Su Luo some snacks, and Su Fu hurried to Taoyuan. When Murong Xian saw her, his eyes flickered, and he tugged on Su Wan's sleeve.
"Soph is here."
Murong Xian disliked Su Fu very much. Although she was of high birth and arrogant, she was reasonable after all. She was not as arrogant as Su Fu, who was confident and acted without any scruples.
Su Wan took a look, and then reminded: "Sister Murong, just don't argue with her for a while."
Murong Xian snorted: "I understand."
Murong Xian was extremely glad that Su Fu would get married soon. If Su Fu acted like this and offended her when she came in, she would definitely not tolerate her, and there might be a fight by then. .
She fed Su Luo a small piece of pastry and said with a smile, "A Luo is better. It's so cute. Is it delicious?!"
Su Luo nodded vigorously: "It's delicious, thank you sister."
Murong Xian was immediately happy: "How good!"
Seeing this, Su Wan said: "Stop feeding her, she will be full again soon."
Su Luo hummed and said, "A Luo has hawthorn pills."
Su Wan glared at her: "Even if there are hawthorn pills, you can't eat them like this. You have to be obedient."
Su Luo said oh, and then she stopped eating. She was very good.
Murong Xian had never seen such a cute and well-behaved girl before, and he immediately fell in love with her.
Su Fu led the people into the peach garden, glanced around, walked forward, and then came to the Suwan table. When she saw Murong Xian, she reluctantly said hello: "Miss Murong."
Murong Xian nodded: "The fourth girl of the Su family."
Although Su Fu didn't like Murong Xian either, because this man was not close to her and instead got close to Su Wan, but after thinking about the current status of Pingyuan Marquis Mansion, she felt a rare kindness and felt that she needed to make up for it. His brother never had any trouble with Murong Xian.
However, she sat down and frowned when she saw Wang Weixi wearing a new skirt beside her: "Who are you?!"
Wang Weixi saw that she had too much aura, and her eyes were a little unhappy. After a while, she didn't know how to speak. Su Wan helped her and said: "Fourth sister, this is a cousin from the Wang family. Just call me Cousin Wang."
"From the Wang family?!" Su Fuyou frowned and looked her up and down, with some disgust in her eyes.
Wang Weixi's face turned red, he lowered his head and hummed.
Su Fu wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, she didn't say anything. The Wang family was Wang's natal family after all. If this girl complained in front of Wang, her life would be even more difficult.
She glanced around and saw Su Ran and Su Ling sitting at another table. They were sitting with several young women, talking to each other.
Su Fu's eyes fell on Su Ran's face, and she snorted softly. She really wanted to go forward and tear her face off.
After a while, Mrs. Li sent Li Yuyan over again. Mrs. Li said: "Princess, Yuyan is not sensible, please take care of her."
Li Yuyan's pale face was covered by fine powder. Hearing this, she could only smile reluctantly: "Princess, Yuyan is being polite."
Su Wan nodded, and then said to Mrs. Li, "I understand, mother."
Anyway, Li Yuyan was already engaged to Su Ying at this moment, so nothing could happen. It was just to give Li a face, and it was appropriate to give Li Yuyan a brush.
