Chapter 989 He wants to marry a noble girl
Su Jiu stood outside the pavilion.

Su Runmo passed by her, glanced at her condescendingly, then quickly withdrew his gaze and stepped into the building.

Juan'er looked sad, stared at Su Jiu for a moment, and suddenly burst out laughing, even those red eyes were a little more radiant.

She tilted her head and approached Su Jiu's ear, her voice was very low: "Sister Su is really cute in this court lady's attire!"

Su Jiu raised his eyebrows.

She knew that Pan'er was alert and was serving Su Runmo, so it was not surprising that she knew her identity.

She took out her handkerchief and wiped the tears from the corners of Juan'er's eyes, "Why are you crying so well? Your eyes are so red, could it be that Su Runmo bullied you?"

Juan'er suppressed his smile, and quickly turned his back.

She raised her sleeve and wiped her eyes, and said angrily: "Sister Su can't take care of herself, but she has the leisure to take care of my affairs!"

Su Jiu held her hand.

The little princess from the Snow Mountain Tribe in Beiliang seems to have a slightly cooler skin than others.

She was still dressed as a Beiliang person, with wheat-colored skin and deep and gorgeous facial features, in stark contrast to the noble lady in Chang'an. Although she had a kind of exotic beauty, she still had an incompatible abruptness after all.

Su Jiu's voice was gentle: "You have a bad temper, and you don't have any friends in Chang'an City. If I don't care about you, you will really be alone. Tell me, what happened to Su Runmo? Are you not in love? The person who cries must have done something too much to make you sad."

Pan'er tugged at the belt around his waist.

Complexity appeared in her brown eyes, and she dragged Su Jiu to the corner of the garden, "Su Runmo has passed his thirties, but the National Teacher's Mansion doesn't even have a mistress. Many aristocratic families in Chang'an are coveting the mistress of the National Teacher's Mansion." He also wants to marry a noble girl... When he accompanied Xiao Tingchen on the expedition, he made good friends with the generals of the Chen family, and the Chen family also intended to marry the National Teacher's Mansion..."

At this point, there is still something that Su Jiu doesn't understand.

The Chen family and the Su family are both emerging families in Chang'an City, and their marriage will be more conducive to their future development in the court.

Today is Chen Shangshu's [-]th birthday, and Su Runmo came to the door in person, so it may be that there is no intention of a blind date.

I heard that Chen Su, the granddaughter of Chen Shangshu, is well-educated, gentle and beautiful, and she must be the first choice for marriage...

Just thinking about it, the garden has become lively.

It turned out that the birthday party had begun.

Yishui's pear wood tables and chairs were set up properly, Xiao Tingchen was welcomed to the upper seat by the Chen family, and other distinguished guests took their seats.

Su Runmo was sitting at Xiao Tingchen's lower seat, and next to him were the sons of the Chen family, talking and laughing happily, as if they were about to enter into an in-law relationship.

Chen Shangshu got up and said with a smile: "My Majesty, the banquet is boring. The old minister's granddaughter Susu has specially prepared a dance to celebrate her birthday. If the Emperor does not dislike it, can you ask Susu to perform the dance?"

Xiao Tingchen agreed.

Su Jiu was still standing in the corner with Pan'er, and saw a girl in a red and flowered golden butterfly dress approaching from afar.

However, at the age of fifteen or sixteen, her appearance is not stunning, but she has the gentleness and understanding of a lady.

The maidservants brought a big bronze mirror and put it in the center. She stepped on the bronze mirror and blessed everyone present, but her eyes fell on Su Runmo, and her voice was melodious like an oriole's first cry: "Little girl rustle, show your shame to everyone." gone."

Music starts.

Chen Su's red dress is flying, and the maidservants sprinkled petals from all directions, against the light and shadow refracted by the bronze mirror, it is dreamlike and pleasing to the eye.

All the people present smiled and praised, and all kinds of ambiguous eyes lingered between Su Runmo and Chen Su, obviously understanding that the dance that the girl of the Chen family performed today was called a birthday celebration, but it was actually a blind date ceremony with Su Guoshi.

Behind the willow tree, Pan'er was so angry that he tightly grabbed Su Jiu's arm, "Sister Su, don't you women from the Central Plains pay attention to politeness and manners? This woman shows her face in public and flirts with Su Runmo. What about the good manners and shame?!"

Su Jiu was silent.

Although the Central Plains pays attention to rules, it is not out of the ordinary for ordinary banquets and noble ladies from aristocratic families to perform songs and dances on stage.

"Look at Su Runmo's expression, it's like a dog seeing meat, I can't stand it anymore! A noble girl, a noble girl, is it so important to marry a noble girl?! It's still a princess of a country, how is her background worse than that of Chen Su?!"

She complained indignantly.

Su Jiu said softly, "Did you tell Su Runmo what you want?"

"Even if I don't say it, can't you tell that he's so smart?! I don't allow him to attend today's birthday banquet, but he insists on coming! I cried and he refused to accommodate me, saying that sooner or later he will marry a wife and have children ..."

Su Jiu listened and didn't know what to say for a moment.

The music stopped abruptly.

On the bronze mirror stand, Chen Su rolled up her skirt with her slender hands, and Shi Shiran thanked everyone with blessings.

"My little girl is not talented, I made everyone laugh." Her apricot eyes glowed, "I heard that Su Guoshi lived in Beiliang for a long time. I don't know if my little girl's dance is better than Beiliang's dance?"

Su Runmo held a folding fan, and his smile was as warm as a spring breeze, "Naturally, Ms. Chen's dancing posture is even better."

There was a teasing laugh at the table.

A highly respected old minister suggested with a smile at the right time: "Mr. Chen, there is a lack of a wife in Su Guoshi's mansion. I see that Susu and Su Guoshi are very suitable for each other. Why don't you ask the emperor for a marriage? Isn't it a couple today?" Xilinmen?"

Chen Shangshu looked at Su Runmo with a smile on his face, "Susu is stubborn, I'm afraid he can't be a good match for Su Guoshi!"

Su Runmo smiled and continued, "Miss Chen is very nice."

In a few words, a marriage seems to be a matter of course.

Pan'er scratched her ears and cheeks anxiously, but Su Jiu couldn't bear to see her, so she whispered a few words in her ear.

Juan'er nodded repeatedly, and couldn't wait to step into the sight of everyone, "It is said that people in the Central Plains are the most particular about birthday celebrations. Miss Chen's dance is called 'Mirror Flower Dance', which means water moon mirror flower. But as far as I know, water The moon mirror flower in the Central Plains means fleeting. Why, Miss Chen is using this dance to curse Chen Shangshu's short life?"

When the voice fell to the ground, the atmosphere in the meeting suddenly froze and felt strange.

Everyone present knew that this dance was only performed for Su Runmo in the name of celebrating his birthday, so they didn't care whether it was a show or not.

But now this girl from Beiliang, who came out of nowhere, actually made a fuss about the name of this dance to embarrass the Chen family...

After all, Chen Su has lived in a deep boudoir for a long time, and she is used to hearing flattery when gathering with her little sisters on weekdays, but she has never seen such an embarrassing situation.

Her face was pale and pale, with faint tears in her eyes, she said softly: "I don't know who the girl is? I just danced for a good-looking picture. I didn't care about the name of the dance, let alone cursing my grandfather."

"The picture looks good?" Pan'er raised his eyebrows, and began to act arrogantly and freely, "Dancing this unsightly and frivolous dance at the grandfather's birthday banquet in order to seduce men, it turns out that this is the upbringing of a noble girl from the Central Plains, I have seen it! "
