C33

In the blink of an eye, it was already the 27th. She woke up early in the morning with Lu Ping calling her. She bathed, washed her face, and had a sleepy and dazed look in her eyes for two hours before finally sitting down in front of the mirror.

"Is there a need to be so nervous?" I yawned and said to Lina.

"My lady summoned me three times yesterday and told me not to make a mistake." "I'm sorry," I said. My mother took my first visit so seriously that everyone around me was flustered.

It was dressed in a silver and red peach embroidery jacket, with a blue peach blossom skirt covered in horseshoes, and a garnet head shaped like a peach blossom. It was very normal. I wanted to draw attention to myself.

"Although Miss's outfit is good, it is still a little simple. It would be better if she was wearing it at home, but she has to go out now." Lu Ping looked me up and down. She was very dissatisfied with my casual matching.

"Let's go, it's almost time." I pointed to the outer room. The clock was placed in the outer room. Lu Ping frowned and was about to say something, but I had already walked out quickly.

My mother was waiting for me in my grandmother's room. She was wearing a blue embroidered brocade gown with a blue jasper dress underneath. Her hair was tied up in a ponytail with a set of burning blue jades. She looked exceptionally fresh and refreshing.

"Why are you wearing such a set of clothes?" His mother's mouth was pursed in a very strict manner. There was no problem with the clothes, they matched well and were elegant, but my body was very thin, and when I wore it, it made me look somewhat fragile. I could have worn it before my mother saw it, but I couldn't insist on it after she had spoken.

"Give the lady the clothes I brought with me." Mother Feng came forward with a wooden box. Lu Ping took it and accompanied me to Grandmother's inner room to change my clothes.

"The style of the clothes is too old!" On the top, there was a small silver crown with gems inlaid on it. Each piece of tassels that hung down was inlaid with a bright gem, inside was a lotus dress, below it was a white silk dress, and a veil was embroidered with silver thread to create the patterns of lotus flowers. Lu Ping looked at the clothes and complained that they were too simple.

"A dress like this seems more demure." This outfit suited me very well. It was simple and not ostentatious, but this outfit was prepared by my mother. What was the unusual intention behind this?

After changing clothes and walking out from behind the screen, my mother's glasses were all around me. She had a look of sincere satisfaction on her face. There must be a problem with that!

"Yuanyuan's body is indeed better, your mother has good eyes." Grandmother and I reported the same thought, the simpler the dress the better, but Mother also thought it was strange.

It was almost time for the feast, and if I didn't find out what was in it, I would have to obey my mother.

"After breakfast, the maidservants served tea and rinsed their mouths for the masters. I signaled to Green Pingping with my eyes." Give it to me! " Lu Ping took the teacup. As the young maid retreated, she bumped into Lu Ping's bosom. After the teacup fell to the ground, it rolled for a few weeks before falling onto the carpet. My skirt was wet from the rain.

"It doesn't matter if you do." My mother got up quickly and saw that my skirt was wet and my eyes were filled with disappointment.

"Slut, if Miss has a life, at least you won't be able to afford to pay it with ten lives!" Mother's anger was scattered all over the servant's body. Green Pingping was kneeling on the ground with her head lowered. The young maid was kneeling behind Green Pingping, shivering and sobbing.

"Daughter is fine." I reached for my mother's hand. "It's a pity my dress got wet," I said. His mother hesitated, but there was no answer.

"Miss, you don't have to change your dress. This servant has a way." She sat on the brick bed, and her grandmother frowned. If she could do something about it, I would have been splashed with water for nothing.

"Miss should first change into a new dress, lift five charcoal pots, support the dress with a rack, and fan it. After a while, the manager will be finished. I won't hold you up while you're out." That mother Feng was full of confidence.

"Then let's try changing it!" When my mother spoke, I had to change.

In the time it took to make a cup of tea, Mother Feng came back with her dress full of joy. Looking at it, it was even smoother than before and even had some fragrance. I couldn't help but bitterly smile.

My mother and mother took the car in front with the same girl, and I took the car in the back with Lu Ping. It was the first time in my life that I had ever been out of my house, but the place I wanted to be recognized as the most important place in my previous life.

In the past, I had been placed in a small house in the outskirts of the capital by Xuelang. I had always thought that once I gave birth to a child, I would be able to bring the child back to the Xue family in good name and also give the child a name.

From time to time, I lifted the curtain on the side of the car and looked around. I could also see the outside world through the cracks in the curtain. After all, I had grown up in the inner chamber and was very curious about the outside world.

"Miss, put it down, others will see." The woman with the car laughed and scolded me. I smiled at her gratefully and put my hands down.

It's not that I haven't seen the outside world, it's just that if I'm a young lady who has never left her home, I should be curious. Once, when Xue Lang took me to rush to the temple fair in Beijing, we were like an ordinary couple walking on the streets without any restraints, talking and laughing loudly. He bought a cheap hairpin from the side of the street, but I was treated as a rare treasure in the world. So much bustling and hustle and bustle is short, sweet and happy is often unable to stay long, more should be cherished by the peaceful passing of the years.

As though I had completed my mission, I leaned against the cushions and closed my eyes to rest my mind while Lu Ping listened carefully to the commotion outside. There was an anxious and happy smile on her face as such an opportunity to go out was extremely rare for her.

"Miss, we have passed the threshold." The old granny who was following the car whispers. I lightly buckle the carriage to indicate that I understand. When a woman came to attend a banquet, they would usually remove the threshold in advance so that the woman's car could enter the inner chamber. The car jolted and began to move smoothly again. On the way, I already thought, my mother and I set off so early, could it be that we are so far from the Xue Clan? Now, it seemed that it was only the time it took for an incense stick to burn, then it was a completely different situation. Only a well-connected family would arrive at the banquet of another family very early, and they would get close to each other as they prepared.

From afar, they could hear the sounds of laughter. Waves of laughter could be heard, and it was extremely noisy.

"Miss, we're here." The old woman who was following the carriage said that after Lu Ping had finished arranging my wind-pocket for me, I got off the carriage with the help of the old woman.

Suddenly seeing the bright sunlight, I squinted for a while before opening my eyes. She lowered her head and obediently stood behind my mother. My mother looked at me with a slight frown, blaming me for being cowardly. I lowered my head and ignored her, only twisting the handkerchief in my hand.

"Elder sister, you're here!" A crisp female voice was accompanied by the sound of footsteps.
