ans, some missing an arm and some a leg. Even if they were fierce, there was a limit.The old woman wanted to protect her granddaughter and block Huiniang, so she couldn't possibly step aside.There was...Jia Yin also knew her grandmother's thoughts, so she "reluctantly" divided so many good things to Baozhu.

At this time, Qiao's mother came over. It turned out that someone had come to visit the Wen family. 。Mrs. Wen, supporting her pregnant belly with one hand and holding onto Grandmother Tian's other hand, returned. 。Everyone was curious because Mrs. Wen had gone to Suijin Beach to raise her child, seeking tranquility above all else. 。Since we moved here, besides close family like the Lius, no one else has bothered us. 。Talk about Cao Cao, and Cao Cao arrives. 。The Li family was speculating, Liu's wife actually took a carriage and visited... 。The Li family was very surprised and quickly invited her into the house to speak. 。The Liu family and the Li family were also close families, their children could run around freely in each other's backyards like they knew each other well. 。So, Old Lady Li didn't beat around the bush. She directly called Liu Fu's given name and asked for clarification. 。“Zi’tong, how did you suddenly come Are you here for something regarding our family, or are you visiting Jiner Since she has guests, you came to sit with us” Liu Fu-ren sat beside the Old Madam and smiled, “Auntie, I am here today for two reasons. First, I have something to discuss, and second, I wanted to see you and Jiner…” 。She then asked, rather curiously: "I see that the carriage in front of Jin Rou's door has a 'Gu' character on it. If I'm not mistaken, there is only one woman from the Gu family who frequently interacts with Jin Rou in the new capital—the headmistress of the female academy." 。"But this Head of the Household is a solitary person, why did he come to visit today""I don't know" Old Lady Li was also puzzled. After thinking for a moment, she asked He Mama to send a plate of oranges over, and at the same time, to see how Madam Wen was doing. 。After all, Mrs. Wen is eight months pregnant. Don't even mention pushing her around; even if she gets angry, it could lead to premature birth. 。Soon, Shui Ling returned and said, “Mrs. Wen is doing well. She said she was very pleased with the visit from that other lady.” 。Then everyone felt relieved, and Mrs. Liu got down to business. 。"Auntie, yesterday the Marquis made a great display of power in the city. He wiped out a place called Yaochi and raided the Chang Princess's mansion." 。"It is said that many people were implicated and imprisoned because of something called Ronghe Paste." 。"Do you know about this at home" Li Laotai didn't hide anything from her and simply explained. 。Yesterday, Fu Niuer went to the Princess Mansion for a flower-viewing banquet. She found something amiss and made an excuse to leave early. 。After hearing this, the Marquis investigated and found out quite a bit, which led to all of this trouble. 。"No wonder!" Mrs. Liu suddenly realized and smiled, "So the county princess also went to the flower viewing banquet, no wonder so many people entrusted me with things." 。"As she spoke, she took out three gift lists from her bosom and placed them on the table, then continued, "Several noble ladies were also at the Princess's residence yesterday. Your aunt knows this well; these few characters 'Princess's Residence' are now a curse for whoever attaches themselves to them, let alone unmarried girls." 。"These few families want to take the young lady's name off the list in the Marquis' hands, but the Marquis is a righteous person, and they can't say anything to him." 。So, they went through all sorts of connections and finally reached out to me, asking me to make a trip. They hoped that their aunt or the princess would speak up for them. 。"

Li Lao Tai frowned, before she could speak, Liu Fu rushed to wave her hand and said, "Aunt, I'm just passing on a message. After all, these families move around with ours quite a lot, and I wouldn't be able to not make this trip" 。But if my aunt can't help, or if there are other arrangements from the Marquis's side, it wouldn't be good for me to plead on her behalf and jeopardize a major event. 。“ I let out a sigh of relief and replied, “About this matter, I only just found out. I haven't even met Lord Hou yet. I need to ask him about it first before anything else can be done.” 。"We can't help, and it wouldn't be wise to speak up rashly. We'd be dragging the Marquis down and harming national affairs." 。"Auntie's right, I think so too." 。"Mrs. Liu laughed, 'That's why I haven't opened any of the wedding invitations yet. I'm afraid if I take a look, my eyes will turn red.'" 。Everyone burst into laughter upon hearing this. Before the laughter died down, Mrs. Wen arrived to usher out her guests. 。Having heard the reason for her sister-in-law's visit, she smiled wryly and said, “Just now, the Director of Grain suddenly came to visit, also because of this matter” 。"Her niece from her mother's side got involved!"

As she spoke, she also took out three invitation cards.

Thus, Lao Li dared not agree casually. 。No, a carriage arrived at the door again. Even Jia Erfu came to beg for mercy. 。Seeing the menu on the table, she burst into laughter and took out three from her bosom, placing them there and saying, “On the way here, I was worried that I would be a bother to my aunt-in-law…” 。Now that there are so many lice, I don't have to worry. My aunt probably wouldn't mind these few invitation slips from me anyway. 。Everyone burst into laughter and tears, pulling her down to sit and drink tea. 。 Jia Yin took this opportunity to stand up and apologize to Madam Jia Er, saying that Bao Zhu was frightened by what had happened at the Princess's Mansion. 。Madam Jia Er was very agreeable, waving her hand and smiling: "Miss, don't think too much about it. Baozhu gets along well with you, so it's nothing to suffer a little together." 。"She's eaten so many good fruits and snacks from our family, she should contribute a little!" Everyone liked her straightforward manner and started laughing. 。Jiayin was also deeply touched, putting the things she had divided for Baozhu on the table and smiling, "Second Madam, these were just awarded by the palace. I shared a few with Baozhu to cheer her up." 。As expected, the second mistress didn't refuse and happily accepted. 。"Okay, I'll take it back to her." 。Today this little girl wanted to come with me, but I didn't bring her. She's throwing a tantrum at home now, her mouth could hold a bottle of oil!

Everyone laughed for a few moments, then Jia Yin took the gift list and tried to figure out who sent each present, writing it all down. 。During the flower-viewing banquet that day, she and Baozhu were ignored by everyone. While munching on snacks and lazing around, she identified most of the girls present through He Ma'ma. 。Now it's actually useful. 。It's out of concern for the girl's reputation that they hurried to give gifts. They were all called out secretly by Bao Lei on that day and had smoked Fusheng Paste. 。As for the rest of the girls, those from poor families or of low social standing, who had not been corrupted, there was naturally no need to be in a hurry. 。She pondered for a moment, then said to Madam Wen, Madam Liu, and Mrs. Jia Er: "This matter is being handled by my adoptive father. Our family shouldn't agree to it casually." 。"That way, I'll go to my stepfather tomorrow and bring him some food. I'll ask him then " 。 。"Okay, thank you for your hard work, County Princess." 。 。Mrs. Liu also smiled and said, "Please trouble the county princess to make a trip, and as soon as there is news, please let us know immediately, otherwise I am afraid that the threshold of my house will be trampled flat." 。" As for Mrs. Wen, she smiled and tousled Jia Yin's hair, instructing: "Tomorrow when you go out, bring more people with you. This matter has become a big deal, so be careful that someone catches you and threatens your godfather." 。"Understood, Shigu." 。"Jia Yin smiled and replied, 'I'm with Shan Shu and Mei Yi, so we're not afraid of anyone who comes.'" 。After chatting for a while more, perhaps because they had no more worries on their minds, Madam Jia Er and Mrs. Liu were not in a hurry to leave. 。They stayed at Li's house for a meal, and then looked at the flowers in the greenhouse before happily taking home a basket of fruit. 。huiling stressed the point with a grave expression, "I know, Your Grace didn't eat much at dinner. You must be preoccupied with many things."Suiyun wanted to speak further, but saw a white shadow "who...
