Raiders of the Duke and Duchess

Chapter 108 Two Invitations (Part One)
Nanny Han put down the newly heated kettle and poured tea for You Lingxi while nodding and chuckling, "Yes. Miss Ji has a good temper and knows how to deal with people. The old servant is also very good. Princess , drink tea."

He took the teacup, thanked her, and took a sip, "I heard Mammy say that... I really want to get to know each other. I heard that she is a violinist... Does her piano sound good?"

"It's nice to hear. I haven't heard of it before... But the girl talked about it when she went to Bai's house, and Mrs. Bai liked it very much."

"That's right..." The girl's eyes were like the calm and deep sea, elegant and gentle, with a kind of dusty softness, she smiled lightly, "Playing the piano for a while, I always feel that there is an invisible barrier standing in front of me, how many times?" Some things don’t make sense, and my mother said that it’s because I’ve encountered a bottleneck, and I should find some people with different styles to discuss with each other, and maybe I’ll be able to understand.”

Nanny Han nodded and said yes, "What the princess said is very true. The princess and the girl are about the same age, so it would be a great thing if they could chat."

You Lingxi noticed that Nanny Han called Ji Wuyan without her surname, but just "girl", as if it was a special title for that person, and it sounded even kind.This made her... a little wary.

It's just that her expression was gentle, without any temper or emotion, "That's right... I don't know, where does Miss Ji live? The backyard of Fengchenju?"

Nanny Han was taken aback for a moment, thinking that the princess in front of her was a princess with close contacts on weekdays, and to the old lady, she was also a half-granddaughter, and it seemed that there was no need to hide her, so she shook her head and said honestly Answer, "No. In the... eastern suburbs."

"Eastern suburb?"

"Yes." Nanny Han rubbed her neck and smiled very gently, "You should know. Your Majesty rewarded our third master with a house before, and that's the one."

Her fingertips trembled slightly, and the tea in the cup splashed on the pages of the book spread out in front of her. She took the handkerchief and wiped it carefully twice before looking up at Nanny Han, "Yes... Third Brother invited her over ?”

"Hi! No..." Nanny Han shook her head helplessly, "Our third master is also a dull gourd. He obviously cares about girls so much, but he still collects money from people, saying that the house is sold to others. Please tell me, princess, It won't be sold sooner or later, our house is not short of those few silver envoys, why did it sell at this time, why did it go to the girl who sold it, how can there be such a coincidence, right? Anyway? The old slave doesn't believe it..."

The eyelashes drooped slightly, covering all the expressions in her eyes... only the corners of her mouth were slightly pursed, yes, she didn't believe it either.How could it be such a coincidence?Either Ning Xiuyuan did it on purpose, or Ji Wuyan did it on purpose... You Lingxi believed in the latter.

After all, admitting that Ning Xiuyuan really fell in love with a woman who is inferior to her in every way, it is better to accept that the other party hooked up with Ning Xiuyuan with ulterior motives...

"Our lord, it seems that he really likes this girl. The more this man likes it, the more he is willing to spend those thoughts to create some plausible coincidences, and the more he dare not admit it, he is timid and struggling..." After Han Momo finished speaking, she suddenly realized that she had said the wrong thing.

It is well known that the princess loves the third master, no matter how good-tempered he is, he will definitely mind this matter, at least, he is not very comfortable in his heart.Immediately smiled awkwardly, touched his nose and said to check the fire, and withdrew.

You Lingxi's eyes fell on the open book in front of her, but she couldn't read a single word...

She knew about that house. Although few people knew about it, she did.She knew many things about Duke Ning's mansion and Ning Xiuyuan that others didn't know, and because of this, she felt from beginning to end that if there must be someone who would marry Ning Xiuyuan, it must be herself.

No one is more suitable than her, is there?
Therefore, even if there were some voices in Yanjing City saying that she was an old girl, and even if her uncle made insinuations, Ning Xiuyuan only said that she had no intention of getting married. Even though she had been away for nearly two years, she never worried about it.

But who ever thought that she came back, but things changed.

If the other party is the daughter of a high family, the daughter of the Hou family, or the princess of a foreign country, she feels that it is easier to accept, but... the other party is just a luthier in a wine shop!

Why? !Does she know how to play the piano?
His fingertips pressed into his palm.

There was no one there, and the gentle mask shattered, revealing all the negative emotions and dark core inside, because of displeasure and unwillingness, even the facial features gradually became hideous.She bit her back teeth and almost paused word by word, biting her words vigorously, and murmured softly, "Ji, Wu, Yan."

……

In the afternoon, it gradually cleared up.

There is no summer heat in the gentle wind, but it is a bit more comfortable in autumn.

Ji Feng pestered Ji Wuyan to go to the street and bought a few koi to raise in the yard, wishing that people would grow by the pond, stretched their heads for a while and asked, are they hungry?Ask in a moment, will they be tired?
In order to prevent this enthusiastic child from feeding the fish he just bought to death, Ji Wuyan moved a small couch to guard it.

Gucuo came in with two invitation cards, handed them to her casually, and smiled, "Fulfill the mission, complete the mission."

The red bronzing invitation card handed over was exactly the invitation card for the wedding banquet of the Yang family on the second day of August.His eyes flickered slightly, and he smiled nonchalantly, "But I only got two, you can see who you bring."

The kid by the pond ran over in twos and threes, "Do you want to eat wine? Is it the kind of banquet that will be held for days and nights? I'll go!"

It seems that eating wine is more important than koi.

Ji Wuyan let him pull her arm to act like a spoiled child, and refused bluntly, "No way. Children, don't go to such a dangerous place."

"Dangerous? Isn't it drinking?"

"Eating wine can be very dangerous." Seeing his obvious posture of breaking the casserole and asking the end, Ji Wuyan quickly found an excuse to drive him away, "Let sister Ziqiu cook some bird's nest to eat, and say your girl hungry."

"Oh..." He didn't think about it, although he still didn't understand why drinking was dangerous, but it was more important for a girl to be hungry than to drink.

After Ji Wuyan left, Ji Wuyan looked at the invitation card in his hand and thought for a while, if it was just for drinking, he could take anyone with him, Ji Feng and Ziqiu were the most suitable, but these two are too simple, things will be uncertain at that time What will become, they are not suitable to go.

She looked at the old house, "You can go with me."

Gucuo, who was not surprised by this and was very satisfied, nodded and chuckled, "Success. There are still three days left, and I will go with you then."

The matter of invitations... is not difficult, even if there are a few more, it is still possible.It's just that no matter how many there are... it's better to be just right, right... it's just a little bit of thought that I want to attend alone with her.
