When Geng Xingshuang, Geng Xingchen and Jiang Xuefu arrived in the garden, there were more people in the garden than when Jiang Xuefu was there.
There is more than one way to go to the back garden, whether from the Chuihua Gate or from Mrs. Yang's main courtyard. Geng Xingshuang had been to Yang's house before and didn't want to run into He Yuzhu, so she took a long way around. Jiang Xuefu was angry He went berserk, so he happened to bump into him without finding anyone else on the road.
Jiang Xuefu paused for a moment. Seeing those beautifully dressed young ladies, thinking of their eyes on her and their deliberately lowered voices, she had the urge to turn around and leave.
A hand held her hand in time, "Miss Jiang, let's go. Look, Miss Yang San is there. Let's go say hello to the host, and we can ask her about flowers."
Jiang Xuefu hesitated, but Geng Xingshuang pulled her and walked in the direction of Yang Fu.
Jiang Xuefu saw that Yang Fu was surrounded by three little ladies who had secretly said that she looked like Zhong Kui, but had a snow-skinned and pretty face, and that ugly people often make mischief.
At this time, the young ladies also saw her. They first looked slightly surprised, and then saw Geng Xingshuang pulling her, and Geng Xingchen walking beside them, and they were a little confused about Geng Xingshuang's identity. , then looked at Yang Fu.
"Sister Shuang, have you... paid your respects to your grandmother?"
Yang Fu came forward with a smile, her expression and tone were the same as before at the Chuihua Gate, with an unnatural stiffness, but now she seemed to be more tentative.
"Well, I originally wanted to talk to the old lady, but Miss He said that if we don't come, those beautiful flowers will be moved to the outer courtyard, so the old lady asked us to come over quickly."
Geng Xingshuang said, looking at He Yuzhu who was talking to Yang Ru, the fifth girl not far away.
"So that's it. Brother did send someone to ask before, but we only asked them to move a few pots of orchids and rhododendrons. We didn't move any other pots. They are all here."
"That's great. None of us know much about flowers. Our sister also knows about it. Except for some flowers that don't need to be taken care of, there are no particularly expensive varieties. It's hard to come here today. I wish my sister could do it. Taking time out of your busy schedule to take us for a walk around the garden and give us a sense of knowledge?"
Yang Fu glanced at Geng Xingshuang first, and then looked at Jiang Xuefu, who was standing next to Geng Xingshuang, half a head taller than her and taller than most of the young ladies in the garden.
"Miss Jiang, it turns out you were with Sister Geng and the others. I was looking for you in the garden just now. I heard they said you had left the garden and were about to send someone to find you. Although our family is not big, they didn't come. It was easy to get lost in life, but now I feel relieved when I see you."
Jiang Xuefu twitched the corners of her mouth and finally choked out a sentence.
"Please excuse me, Miss Yang, for worrying about me."
"Miss Jiang, there is no need to thank me. The second brother specifically asked me to..."
"I didn't thank you, I just said I was tired."
Jiang Xuefu interrupted Yang Fu.
Yang Fu's face froze. Couldn't she hear the kind words from this Jiang Xuefu?
Geng Xingshuang felt funny in her heart, but she still kept a calm expression on her face.
"Sister Yang, where is Wei Zi and Yao Huang? Who are the other eighteen bachelors?"
Today's Yang Fu, how should I put it, always feels uncomfortable in front of Geng Xingshuang, and the external manifestation of this discomfort is that she always gives in unconsciously.
Now, too, as soon as Geng Xingshuang said this, she left the little lady who was admiring flowers with her and took the three of them to enjoy flowers together. She took the trouble to introduce to them the name, temperament and even how to care for each flower to make them beautiful. Better growth.
Geng Xingshuang listened very seriously and watched even more seriously. She was good at painting, but speaking of it, the peonies and camellias she had painted before were only drawn from memory. Geng Xingshuang felt that she needed to strengthen her memory.
Geng Xingchen also looked at it very seriously. She was actually quite interested in flowers and plants. She also raised some flowers and plants herself, but they were not expensive.
Jiang Xuefu, on the other hand, forced herself to be serious. She almost memorized the appearance of the flowers and Yang Fu's introduction into her mind.
But even so, she was in a good mood.
Yang Fu's mouth was dry as she spoke, and she just mentioned most of the flowers in the garden.
Geng Xingshuang looked at Yang Fu's tired look and became even more confused.
Lunch is served in Jixiang Pavilion not far from the back garden. Jixiang Pavilion has two floors. If there are many people, dining tables can be placed on both floors. Although there are many young ladies coming today, the matrons of each house are Didn't come, the first floor was enough, so the food was placed on the second floor.
It wasn't until she went upstairs that Geng Xingshuang saw Geng Xingbing and Geng Xingyu separated from her and Geng Xingchen through the hanging flower door.
"Sixth sister, seventh sister, who is this?"
Geng Xingbing saw the two sisters Geng Xingshuang going upstairs, followed by a tall girl with long legs. He looked at Jiang Xuefu vaguely and asked with a smile.
"Fourth sister, fifth sister, this is Miss Jiang."
"Sister Jiang, this is my fourth and fifth sister."
After spending a short time together in the back garden, Geng Xingshuang and Geng Xingchen were already compatible with sisters Jiang Xuefu.
"Miss Geng Fourth, Miss Geng Five."
Jiang Xuefu showed a bright smile to Geng Xingbing and Geng Xingyu, and her attitude was completely different from the stiff attitude towards Yang Fushi.
Yang Fu, who was entertaining the guests, felt heartbroken when she saw this scene. She felt that Jiang Xuefu was a little ungrateful. If her second brother hadn't repeatedly told her to take good care of his colleague's sister, she would have ignored her at all.
She is just the sister of an eighth-grade city gate captain, that's all. Life is like this, and her temperament is even weirder.
Yang Fu shook her head secretly in her heart. It happened that this person had the same name as her. Today she heard someone comparing her with Jiang Xuefu. There was no doubt that everyone was praising her and belittling Jiang Xuefu.
But mere comparison is not a pleasant thing for her.
However, this Jiang Xuefu was indifferent to her and didn't appreciate her very much. She originally thought she had that kind of temperament, but now it seems otherwise.
"Fourth sister, fifth sister, where have you been this morning?"
After sitting down, Geng Xingshuang asked curiously. After arriving in the back garden of Yang's house, she searched around specifically, and even asked Jinbao to walk through the entire garden, but neither Geng Xingbing nor Geng Xingyu was seen.
"Oh, Sister Zhen said that she recently got a new piano, so she called my fifth sister and I to listen to the sound of the piano. Maybe because the sound of the piano was so pleasant to our ears, we unknowingly wasted time. By the time we came to our senses, it was already lunch time. Soon, Sister Zhen will take us directly to Jixiang Pavilion."
Geng Xingshuang knew that the fourth girl of the Yang family, Yang Zhen, was good at music, but she didn't know when Yang Zhen had such a good relationship with Geng Xingbing.
And Geng Xingbing...is she interested in musical instruments and music?
Geng Xingshuang really didn't care. She had never heard of Geng Xingbing studying this in the uncle's house. Was he not interested, or was he deliberately avoiding it because of the embarrassing situation in the uncle's house?
