Chapter 1015 Indus

On the day we went to see Jiang Xian, the Yang and Li families were a little in chaos. They were afraid that they didn't bring all the things they wanted to bring, and the other was afraid that the gifts they wanted to prepare were not left behind. The trip was checked several times, and then they felt relieved to get on the carriage and go to the Beiding Hou Mansion.

When Emperor Xiaozong and Empress Dowager Cao were regent, the Marquis of Beiding was not very favored, and they acted tremblingly and low-key. Even if Bai Su entered the palace later, the Marquis of Beiding did not dare to be careless at all. Among the meritorious families in the capital, they were not obvious and unsightly. It was not until Bai Qing married Cao Xuan that Empress Dowager Cao quickly lost power. The Marquis of Beiding became the focus of the meritorious families in the capital. But this focus was not a good thing. Most of them were talking about the Marquis of Beiding who could not steal chickens and lose rice. After marrying a good eldest daughter to Cao Xuan, the Cao family declined without asking for some good things. They felt that the Marquis of Beiding did not have much vision, and the children of the Bai family were not very popular because of this.

But there are advantages and disadvantages in this world. The children of the Bai family are therefore self-reflective. The children of these two generations are among the best in the aristocratic families in the capital, whether in terms of character, knowledge, or cultivation.

When Li Qian guarded the capital, with Jiang Xian and Bai Su's relationship, Li Qian valued Cao Xuan. Only then did everyone seem to see clearly the forbearance and intelligence of the Beiding Houhui, and became familiar with the Beiding Hou Mansion. Although the Beiding Hou Mansion was not crowded, it was very lively every day, and there was a constant stream of people who wanted to get to know Li Qian and Jiang Xian. However, the Beiding Hou Mansion was always unhurried and did whatever he should do, which was no different from before. Instead, many people in the capital admired him.

Therefore, this time, the Beiding Hou Mansion held a flower viewing banquet and invited various major families in the capital to offer gifts. No one would not come. They would even take their daughters or daughters-in-law as much as possible to get along with the Beiding Hou Mansion on such occasions, or get to know some.

Mrs. Yang and Grandma Li were shocked by the traffic in front of the Beiding Marquis’ Mansion, and whispered to each other: "Didn't you just hire a few familiar families? Why are there so many people?"

There are carriages along the corner of the wall at the gate of the Beiding Hou Mansion, and one carriage is more luxurious than the other.

The one who drove their carriage was hired by them from the street temporarily. Seeing this, he hurriedly said, "Madam, I'm afraid there is no way to park here. Why don't you get off the car first? We'll find a parking place later before coming over?"

When families like Beiding Hou Mansion invite guests, they will arrange a place for rest for their servants. They just need to report their boss’ name and go to the designated place to rest, and wait for the boss to finish the social engagement before looking for them.

Mrs. Yang thought for a while and said, "Okay! Then you go find a place to park. When you leave, I will ask the mothers to call you."

The coachman was very happy.

No, at least I can have a good meal in a place like Beiding Hou Mansion.

A group of people surrounded Mrs. Yang and entered the Hanghuamen.

Immediately, the manager's mother came forward to greet her and led them to a warm room not far away.

There were already many noble ladies standing inside. When they saw them in, the concierge sang and drank their identities.

Mrs. Yang was better. She had seen her during social events in some families, and Mrs. Li was full of surprise.

They hadn't stood firm in the hall yet, and the maids and mothers already knew who they were here, which showed that they were sincere in treating the guests, which really touched her.

The owner of the flower meeting, Mrs. Beiding Hou, personally greeted her. After greeting her, she recommended them to meet Mrs. Anlu Hou and others, and explained to them with a pen: "The princess and the county lord have not come yet! I have to wait for a while."

Mrs. Yang and Mrs. Li repeatedly responded "Okay". Mrs. Beiding Hou had introduced them to the guests: "...Mr. Yang and our seventh master once worked in Xishan Camp, and these things often come and go. The Li family and the Yang family are the best of the Tong family. This time Mr. Yang passed by the capital. Our seventh master learned about it and specially sent someone to invite the family to visit. It happened that our mansion held a flower party and invited them to come together for fun."

The origin of the Li family’s female family members was not introduced.

Mrs. Li's heart moved and felt that it was her father-in-law's idea that it seemed to be groundless. The Beiding Hou Mansion could not have invited them to the house to visit without knowing the origin of the Li family. However, she emphasized the Yang family in front of everyone but did not mention the Li family. With the relationship between the Bai family and Princess Jianan, Princess Jianan might also want to see them.

After thinking for a while, he followed Mrs. Yang for a social event without any hesitation. Although there were many people coming to the Beiding Marquis’ Mansion, those who were qualified to stand in this hall were all friends with the Beiding Marquis’ Mansion. It can be seen that not everyone was welcomed by Beiding Marquis’ Mansion.

She was in a more certain mood.

The eldest lady of the Li family was spinning and her eyes were constantly rolling.

She remembered that Li Dao had been dismissed from office afterwards and did not often attend banquets, let alone those like the Beiding Marquis Mansion.

The eldest lady of the Li family was soon attracted by a pot of camellia with different colors not far away. She quietly pulled her mother's hand, wanting to ask Mrs. Yang if it was the legendary "Eighteen Jinshi" camellia. Then she heard a noise outside, and a servant hurried to Mrs. Beiding Hou and whispered a few times. Mrs. Beiding Hou immediately looked bright and said with a smile: "The princess and the junior in the country are here. I'll go to welcome her."

The female family members in the room stood up and said that they should go to greet the wife of Beiding Hou.

The wife of the Marquis of Beiding was not polite, and smiled and invited everyone to go together.

Mrs. Yang and Mrs. Li exchanged glances and followed everyone quietly.

As soon as they walked out of the wing, they saw a group of maids and women standing in front of two beauties walking over.

Walking a few steps ahead, I wore a dark green, plain-faced wool that seemed to be black, and earrings and hairpins with convective silver ginkgo leaves. My eyebrows were like the moon, and my face was beautiful but faintly revealed a bit of majesty that people dare not look directly at.

Mrs. Yang guessed that this should be Princess Jianan.

Sure enough, the female relatives who greeted the wife of the Beiding Marquis' Mansion saluted the woman one after another and called her "Princess".

Mrs. Yang also bowed her knees and made her happy.

Jiang Xian asked them to get up and smiled and said, "What's wrong with everyone? You can't just ruin everyone's interest just because I'm here!"

When the Empress Dowager passed away, everyone else could guard for twenty-seven days, but she decided to guard for one year. If it weren't for the family of Yang Jun and Li Dao, she wouldn't have come to attend this flower party. But even so, the Madam Beiding Marquis knew her knot. After seeing the ladies, she arranged for Jiang Xian and Bai Su to go to the side hall behind and only led a few people, including Jin Yuan, the wife of the Marquis of Anlu, to pay homage to Jiang Xian.

Jiang Xian then breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that the Beiding Hou Mansion is worthy of being Bai Su's mother's home, a meritorious family that the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion has always protected, and is understanding at all times.

She said to Bai Su, "I don't know what Zong Quan is concerned about? This is the north. If I have a heart, I will take this opportunity to meet Yang Jun and Li Dao's family. Is there no other way to know?"

Bai Su knew that she was not willing to socialize these days, so she hurriedly said, "The prince sent someone in Fujian, and the Marquis of Jinghai must have sent someone in the capital. Isn't this a false and real thing? Besides, we don't know what the Yang and Li families mean? If you want to surrender, you have to give them some time to deal with the trivial matters at home?"
