Because of the hasty preparations, the housekeepers and servants of the Munan palace also seconded some of them to help, and moved a lot of flowers from the palace to put them in place.

This time, the banquet was naturally for the ladies and ladies of the famous families near Hengyang, and the farther ones would be put aside for the time being.

Besides, according to the Qi family's thoughts, the best is naturally in this area, if you can't pick it out, you can't pick it out from other places.

These days, the Qi family has been asking everywhere, and no one in the city knows that the prince has returned home in good health and is preparing to marry a daughter-in-law with a good girl.

The men of the Munan Mansion do not accept concubines, and they are such overlords, and the ladies and ladies in the city are all hot for a while.

Although there are also many people who are a little puzzled, why did Princess Mu Nan suddenly fall ill at this time and couldn't take care of anything? But then I think about it, this is a family affair of the palace, what do you care so much? It's best that this princess keeps getting sick, if her own girl has the blessing of marrying the prince, won't she be the master of the house as soon as she enters the door?

Because of this little thought, for the matter of the Yu family, surprisingly almost no one mentioned it.

At this moment, the Qi family suddenly said that they were going to hold a summer banquet to enjoy the flowers, unless they were fools, they didn't understand what kind of flowers this flower was appreciating - wasn't it the delicate flower of their own family waiting for a good marriage?

Therefore, although the time was pressing, the families who received the invitation from the Qi family were still in a hurry and full of excitement to prepare, and on this day, they all dressed up to attend.

Ji Xiuding invited his eldest nephew to his home early in the morning.

When he arrived at the second uncle's house, Ji Lianjin understood what was going to happen today, and he was speechless and acquiesced.

Forget it, if they don't come like this, they won't give up.

Seeing that Ji Lianjin didn't mean to object, although he didn't show joy - Ji Xiuding thought that he was a young man, so he deliberately kept his face and didn't show joy.

Ji Xiuding's heart fell to the ground, and without waiting for the Qi family to say, he told him a general description of which lady and lady were coming today.

"When the time comes, the ladies will also perform their talents, and Qiu Ju next to your aunt will lead you to look and listen in the dark, and if you feel that you agree, you will write down the appearance and clothing of others."

Ji Xiuding also patted him on the shoulder and joked with a smile: "You can read carefully, don't make a mistake, otherwise you don't blame us for marrying the wrong daughter-in-law, don't blame us for being the elders' chaotic mandarin duck scores, hahahaha!" ”

The corners of Ji Lianjin's mouth twitched, and she didn't think this joke was funny at all.

For some reason, the more they tossed so much, the more he missed Lu Xing'er.

Even looking at all this in front of him at this moment, he couldn't help but think, what would happen if Xing'er was there? In his heart, she was not inferior to those famous ladies at all.

Ji Lianjin waited patiently in his second uncle's mansion, and when the time was right, he patiently followed the eldest girl Qiu Ju beside the second aunt to quietly watch those who were chanting poems, paintings, and performing talents in the open water pavilion near the lake.

Qiu Ju stood aside with her hands down, pursed her lips and snickered, Ji Lianjin was speechless, and didn't say anything, just stood there stunned, in fact, she didn't look at anything at all.

As for those talent shows of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, he didn't think it was very good-looking.

In other words, because he has been in poor health since he was a child, if it weren't for the name of the prince of King Munan, if it weren't for the fact that his father loved his mother so much that he loved Wu and Wu and refused to give him up easily, I'm afraid he wouldn't even be able to read a few books that should be read seriously, let alone learn these extra qin, chess, calligraphy and paintings.

In Yu's words: "He has a weak body, where can he resist the trouble of learning this and that?" It's better to take care of your body first and then talk about the rest! ”

So, year after year, when the body is well raised, then talk about the rest, so many years have passed.

So, he really didn't have much interest in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting......

In the afternoon, after sending the ladies and ladies of the families away, Ji Xiuding and the Qi family hurriedly came to Ji Lianjin and couldn't wait to smile and ask.

For fear that he would be embarrassed to speak, the two of them persuaded him a lot.

"We are all your elders, our closest relatives, and this is a serious matter, you don't have to be ashamed, say it quickly!"

In fact, speaking of which, the Qi family himself fell in love with two or three girls, and he thought it was very good.

It's a pity that one of her two sons has already married a daughter-in-law, and the other is not yet old.

Ji Lianjin listened to their words of empathy, and was silent in his heart: Was he embarrassed and ashamed? Why do they say that......

It was easy to shirk and go home, Ji Lianjin breathed a sigh of relief: This matter can't be dragged on like this anymore!

Ji Xiuding and Qi looked at each other: This is-embarrassed to say or a disdain?

The former is fine, if the latter-

Ji Xiuding couldn't help but worry, originally thought that this was an easy thing to do, but who knew that there were such twists and turns.

When King Mu Nan heard Ji Lianjin say that he couldn't look down on any of them, he didn't speak for a long time.

Looking at his son's stubborn face, how did he do what he forced him to do?

"Do you really have to marry that Lu Xing'er? Does she have to do it? ”

"She has to be! Father, did you agree? Ji Lianjin was in good spirits.

King Munan snorted lightly: "How can it be so easy? ”

He glanced at his son reluctantly, and finally said, "Since you insist on doing this, this king will give her a chance." ”

"Father, what do you mean?" Ji Lianjin was stunned.

King Mu Nan sneered lightly and said, "Don't be nervous, isn't this king an unreasonable person?" Anyway, that family saved your life! It was almost August 15, and they were your saviors, and it was only right that the king sent people to give gifts and thanks. Taking advantage of this opportunity, this king will send the housekeeper to go with the housekeeper and the nurturing grandmother, so that they can meet this Lu Xing'er first. If their words are not in line with what you say, then don't count on them. ”

Ji Lianjin was stunned and hurriedly said, "This seems to be unfair, right?" What if—"

"Father will naturally send the right people to go, you can rest assured of this!" After speaking, he glanced at Ji Lianjin up and down, and said with a smile: "Don't you praise her like this?" Even so, are you afraid that she won't be able to cope with it? Afraid that you won't be able to get into the eyes of the housekeeper and the nurturing grandmother? ”

Ji Lianjin couldn't think about it, so he had to say: "That...... Father sent someone to see it first. However, Qiao Niangzi and Lu Zhan are powerful people, and the people sent by my father look at it, don't rely on the fact that we are Munan Wangfu and be domineering and superior, Qiao Niangzi They will not buy it. ”

Hearing him say this, King Mu Nan couldn't help but be a little more curious, and thought of what he had sent someone to inquire about that family over there in the past few days, and smiled.
