Jade Without Fragrance

   Chapter 109 Ruyi Class

   His impression in Mrs. Lin's mind was not very good.

   The young man on the horse sighed silently, and greeted Mrs Lin calmly: "Is Mrs. Lin going to the Marquis of Wuning?"

   Lin quickly put on a straight face and nodded: "Is the prince going there too?"

   "Yes." Across the Lin family, Qi Shuo could only see the faint outline of the girl and the corners of her light green clothes.

  The corners of his lips lifted.

   Lin's face was stunned with a smile, and he couldn't help but take a second glance, thinking that this child, if nothing else, was really handsome.

   "Didn't the princess go?"

   "My mother has something to do, so let the younger generation go for her."

   "The prince is really filial, and the princess is blessed." Lin shi said casually.

  Qi Shuo smiled modestly: "Mrs. Lin is even more blessed, Miss Lin is sensible and considerate."

   Lin subconsciously blocked the daughter in the compartment, thinking that this kid has sharp eyes.

  Qi Shuo pretended not to see Lin Shi's movements at all, and cupped his hands: "I won't bother you, this junior will take the first step."

   The boy flicked the reins, and the horse galloped away.

   Lin put down the curtains of the car and sighed: "It's a pity."

   "What a pity?"

   Lin never had the air of being a mother in front of her daughters, and sighed: "It's a pity that the Prince of Jing has a good appearance, but his health is not good. If he was in better health, he would have thought about it when he came to propose marriage."

  Lin listened to this, and was inexplicably embarrassed: "Mother, it's all in the past, so don't mention it."

   At that time, she avoided this marriage like a scorpion because she knew the tragic end of Prince Jing's mansion and did not want to involve her relatives. Now that Fang Chengji, the chancellor who was blowing wind in the prince's ear, died, it was unknown to her whether the Prince Jing's mansion could avoid the disaster.

  Maybe it’s different—

   "Ah?" Lin shi shouted when she saw her daughter suddenly lost her mind.

"what?"

   "What do you think?"

   "I didn't think about it, did the Marquis of Wuning arrive?" Lin Hao retracted Piao Yuan's thoughts and skillfully changed the subject.

   "It's here." Lin's voice just fell, and the carriage stopped.

  The mother and daughter got off the carriage and were led inside by the waiting maid.

   There were quite a few ladies who had just arrived and greeted each other.

  The Lin family has always been out of place in this circle. When General Lin was still the prince of the state, she was treated like being surrounded by people. Later, when General Lin offended the emperor, the surrounding people dispersed. When General Lin died of illness, Lin Shi and Wen Rugui were absolutely righteous, and those calm indifferences and contempt would be even more.

   Now seeing Lin, these ladies are not scornful.

   I can't get used to Lin's words and deeds anymore. They are now in-laws with Tian's family. If they don't look down on Lin's family, is it not a slap in the face of Tian's family.

   These ladies took the initiative to say hello to Lin, and slandered at the same time: Lin Wanqing is really lucky, and gave birth to a successful daughter.

  The only thing that comforted the ladies was that King Wei was a fat man like a hill, and even though it was beautiful for Lady Lin to become Princess Wei, she actually knew herself well.

  Heh, all good things can't be accounted for by Lin Wanqing.

   Just then, King Wei arrived.

   "Your Highness, please come in." The Hou's house steward shouted, attracting people's attention.

  Wuning Hou’s mansion had separate doors for male and female guests. Although there was some distance, the ladies could still recognize at a glance that the ball that had shrunk in a circle was King Wei.

   Hey, why did King Wei lose weight?

  People thought they were dazzling, and they forgot to hold back for a while, or rubbed their eyes or stretched their necks.

  The King of Wei really lost weight, and he could barely see his eyebrows.

  Looking at it like this, King Wei can be thin and become a beautiful man!

   This discovery was tantamount to pouring over a bucket of vinegar to the ladies, and it was sour.

   Lin Wanqing really took over all the good things.

   They subconsciously looked at Lin.

   Lin raised his chin slightly and strode in with his chest out. Lin Hao walked beside her and almost didn't catch up.

  The matter of King Wei losing weight has undoubtedly become a topic of whispers among the ladies and girls at the birthday banquet.

   Another thing that the ladies wanted to talk about was the absence of Tang Wei, the second girl of the Marquis of Wuning. However, it would be troublesome to be heard on such occasions, so everyone talked about King Wei even more vigorously.

   Mrs. Wuning Hou's head is full of pearls and emeralds, and she wears luxurious brocade clothes. Countless people came to congratulate on such a good day as her birthday, but she couldn't hide her gloom.

  I heard from the eldest daughter that the crown prince was hooked by Sun Xuanshi again, and the second daughter, because of her disfigurement, could not show up on such an important day as her birthday.

   It's been too bad for the past six months, but she was asked to burn incense and worship Buddha, but there was a shadow.

   But she didn't want to let outsiders see the joke, so she cheered up and dealt with it.

  The banquet came to an end, the sound of bamboo and silk stopped, and the Ruyi class appeared.

  Prince Concubine rarely returned to her parents' home. Seeing that her mother was in a bad mood, she picked her favorite and said, "Mother, where did you invite this acrobatics class? It's really good."

   These words are not all to make Mrs. Wuning Hou happy, everyone in the Ruyi class has a unique skill and is extremely ornamental.

   Mrs. Wu Ninghou was scratched proudly and said with a smile: "Your brother insisted on inviting the juggling class. I thought it was too noisy, but I didn't expect it to be good."

   Mrs. Wuning Hou has two daughters and one son, the only son in the middle, named Tang Hua.

   If it is said that Tang Qiang, the eldest daughter of the Crown Princess, is the pride of the Marquis of Wuning, then Tang Hua is the real baby bump.

   The ladies around listened and praised: "Little Marquis is really filial."

   Some people even asked: "How old is the little Marquis, is it time to say kiss?"

  Mrs. Wu Ninghou forgot her depression for a while, she curved her lips proudly, and said modestly, "I haven't reached the crown yet, so the marriage is not in a hurry."

   Everyone complimented for a while, and their attention was drawn to the boy who danced silk.

   The young man with red lips and white teeth was not like a poor performer at all, and two red silk danced with flowers.

  The people are good-looking, and the flying red silk is also good-looking, matching each other, making it hard to take your eyes off, and even some noble ladies quietly blushed.

   Suddenly a red silk flew out, and a flower was rolled up on the silk tail.

  The flower was sent to Lin Hao.

  Lin Hao was taken aback and looked at the boy.

  The boy didn't look at her, and another flower was rolled up in red silk.

   "Ah—" Many ladies screamed, looking forward to a little surprise.

   In normal times, shouting like this would be very rude, but in such occasions it is not abrupt.

   Mrs. Wuning Hou became more and more complacent and glanced at the radiant Lin family.

   I don't know what to show off. Even if King Wei loses weight, he is just a leisurely prince. How can he compare with the prince who Qiang'er married?

   If it were compared to her son, Mrs. Wuning Hou, she would laugh silently.

   Then there is no comparison, Lin Wanqing has no son at all.

   The concentration of the ladies watching the juggling show, and the exclamation of the noble lady, all indicated that the wishful class was invited right, thus showing the son's filial piety and ability to do things.

   From the male guest in front, I could vaguely hear exclamations and applause.

  The prince heard the movement and asked Tang Hua, "What's the situation over there?"

  Tang Hua hurriedly said, "In order to make my mother happy, my brother invited a juggling team to help."

   "Juggling class? It sounds more interesting than watching a play. Let them come and play." The prince said casually.
