Mu Zhuolan found that He Hui’s eyes when looking at Bai Hanlin were particularly soft, and she was very surprised. In her mind, that man was an arrogant person.
I didn’t expect that the Hanlin bachelor, who was the new favorite of the official family, would be so kind and pleasant. It was really surprising.
When this idea came to his mind, Mu Zhuolan himself was stunned. He looked up at the corner of the corridor again, and by this time the two of them had disappeared.
When she was confused, she heard someone calling her from behind,
Miss Mu, why are you standing here alone? Is there something wrong?
While talking, Duan Guixiang walked out of the courtyard with the girl.
It’s nothing. It’s stuffy in the house. I’m going to come out and get some fresh air.
Seeing Duan Guixiang, Mu Zhuolan looked calm. When he saw the light golden pearl flower on her bun, his eyes narrowed slightly.
Although Dongzhu and Nanzhu are precious, as long as you are willing to spend money, you can still purchase a batch of good products. However, golden pearls are extremely rare and are considered as offerings. Sometimes it is difficult for aristocratic families like them to obtain them.
If you want to get it justifiably, unless the head of the family has made meritorious deeds and received a reward from the official family.
But the Duan family is different. They are imperial merchants and have purchasing privileges. In addition to handing over the specified quantity, they are allowed to keep the excess and the items of relatively poor quality for themselves.
Even so, golden pearls on the market are still hard to find. Unexpectedly, the Duan family is willing to keep them.
Hearing Mu Zhuolan’s tone, Duan Guixiang was not angry. He had known for a long time that these noble ladies from the official family were above their heads, and when they interacted with them, they only got what they needed.
Her mother had told her more than once that they were businessmen and had to have a keen sense of smell. As long as something was good for them, it would be okay to have a lower profile. Achieving the goal was the most important thing.
There are many people in the house, so it is indeed hot and stuffy. Aunt Bai was afraid that everyone would get too hot, so she specially placed two ice basins.
Duan Guixiang chuckled, looking at the shade of flowers and plants in the yard, but there was no wind at noon, and he would be sweating after a while.
Will Miss Mu return to the banquet?
Mu Zhuolan looked back at the bustling flower hall, and before she could speak, she saw Princess He Hui coming back with her girl.
Seeing the two people standing under the moon cave door talking, they didn’t care.
Have you eaten yet?
It’s hot and I have no appetite.
Mu Zhuolan chuckled lightly and looked at her new purple coat, which matched her soft eyebrows and eyes, making her look even more dignified. Her actions and gestures were all models of the aristocratic family.
It seems that the princess really likes the little girl from the Bai family. When she came to the Bai family, even her eyebrows softened a lot.
Listening to Mu Zhuolan’s joke, Princess Hehui was noncommittal, but Duan Guixiang next to her echoed,
Perhaps this is fate. If someone sees each other, it has nothing to do with status. The princess is a noblewoman from Kyoto, with both talent and beauty, and unparalleled wisdom. However, she fell in love with Yaya. Isn’t it just fate?
Duan Guixiang said, she couldn’t help but laugh. Today’s trip was really not in vain. She could actually talk to the princess and Mu Zhuolan. She didn’t believe it because they were familiar with each other. With Duan Guixiang’s methods, Can’t fit in?
Hearing Duan Guixiang’s compliment, He Hui glanced at her, which made Mu Zhuolan curl her lips, guessing that someone was a drunkard who didn’t care about drinking.
Miss Duan is right. The Bai family belongs to a scholarly family. Bai Hanlin has become a favored official by his own efforts. He must have outstanding qualities. Little Miss Bai is the eldest granddaughter of the family and is immersed in the scholarly family. Jia must also be a smart girl.
Not to mention that the princess likes her, even I was very happy after seeing it. It’s a pity that the little girl only likes He Hui and is not willing to talk to me.
He Hui looked at the crooked expression on her eyebrows and explained softly, She is a little girl after all, why do you have to worry about her.
Hey, are you still protected?
Hearing these unexplained words and her incessant laughter, I almost frowned.
I’ll go tell Bai Shuren and take the first step.
I’m with you.
She had come here with this person to join in the fun. She had seen everything she needed to see and given gifts, so there was no point in staying around.
I came today and used the family’s big carriage. It’s very spacious. If you two don’t mind it, how about I take you back?
She had already inquired about it. Although the two people came in a carriage, they asked the coachman to go back when they arrived at the door of the house.
Hearing Duan Guixiang’s suggestion, He Hui glanced at her, but before she even spoke, Mu Zhuolan agreed.
Then Princess Duan and I will go to the trouble of Miss Duan. Since she came over eagerly, why are you so polite? It saves the servant a trip.
Hearing Mu Zhuolan’s tone, He Hui didn’t object. He looked at Duan Guixiang and nodded.
Good work.
You’re welcome, you’re welcome, it’s all as it should be. I have no other plans except going to the banquet today.
Duan Guixiang didn’t hide her joy at all. She just said that once she becomes familiar with it, she will become familiar with it once. As long as she gets involved and slowly integrates into their circle, the more experience she has, the more opportunities she will have. There is no telling how lucky she will be. My cousin is even better.
Today she came to the Bai family with her mother to congratulate her, and she also took advantage of her cousin. There was no way, even though they were royal merchants, their status was still not high in the eyes of these serious officials.
Although the eldest brother and the second brother of the Duan family are direct relatives, since the second uncle and the others returned to their ancestral home, their relationship has not been as warm as before. Unexpectedly, cousin Xie Yu was quite lucky, so no wonder the second uncle married her cousin off.
Now Cousin Xie has also been summoned to Beijing and has become the young minister of Honglu Temple. He has also made good friends with the Bai family, and his future future is limitless.
Even her cousin’s status has risen with the tide. Every time they met in the past, when did she not always smile to please him?
Now it’s the other way around.
The mother has lamented more than once. If they had known that their aunt’s child was so promising, they would have taken action in advance. How could they let the second uncle get there first?
It’s a pity that there is no regret medicine in the world. Now the whole family is fawning over the cousin and his wife, hoping that they will take more care of the big house.
I didn’t expect to see Miss Mu and Princess Hehui at the banquet today. It was such an unexpected surprise.
Although the Duan family is rich, they hold many banquets every year and send invitations to these noble ladies, but whether they come or not depends on their mood.
Even though we are all in Kyoto, we only see each other once or twice a year, mostly at the winter flower banquet.
Seeing the Bai family’s noodles today, she would be lying if she said she wasn’t bitter. The Bai family, a scholar who started from a humble family, was valued by the officials just because he entered the court as an official. Half of the officials from Kyoto came to the full moon banquet.
My father said that this is the influence of serious officials, unlike them, who are the court’s moneybags.
Princess Hehui came over to say goodbye. Baiyunxi was polite, thanked her again and again for coming, and personally walked her to the gate. She watched several people get on the carriage and leave before turning back.
