Chapter 262, The Yuan Family Attends a Banquet (2 more

Zhu Xiao pursed her lips.

Xun Muyang led her out of the mansion.

City Lord's Mansion

All the famous and respected people in Huaijiang Mansion have been invited, not only the official ladies, but also many wealthy ladies.

They all came earlier, and their parents had told them several times when they were at home that they should be respectful and polite when they saw Zhu Xiao today.

They knew what happened in Huaijiang Mansion a few days ago.

Father, brother and relatives have been demoted to three ranks, so far there is no possibility of promotion, who would dare to offend Zhu Xiao.

The old lady of the Yuan family hadn't woken up early for many years, and she got up early today because of Zhu Xiao, so she drank a cup of ginseng tea and sighed, "I hope that girl is easy to get along with!"

If they are not easy to get along with and cause trouble in the mansion, with His Royal Highness Yi's temperament, I am afraid that it will cause trouble to the city lord's mansion.

"Don't worry, mother. According to Zhao'er, she is a very kind-hearted, bright and generous little girl. She loves to laugh and has a good temper!" Madam Yuan said hastily.

"Even so, don't be careless. After all, he is the one whom King Yi puts on top of his heart. He is still young now. If he waits for a few years, his status will be different. Let's make friends earlier, and we will treat Yuan Yuan in the future." Home is good only!"

"It's true what mother said!"

The old lady asked again, "Have you prepared everything for the meeting ceremony?"

"Going back to mother, everything is ready, my daughter-in-law has checked it herself, and everything is not bad!"

The old lady nodded again, "Have all the ladies and ladies arrived?"

"Everyone who can come is here. The second and third siblings and sister are greeting each other. The eldest sister and second sister will also come back!"

The old lady thought about it for a moment, "Go and do your work first, I don't need you to guard my side!"

"Yes!"

Originally, there was no need to mobilize the crowd like this this time, but Xun Muyang's methods a few days ago really frightened everyone in the Huaijiang Mansion.

They were cleaned up again, except for the family whose house was ransacked. Although the others had handed over their money, fortunately their lives were saved, their official positions were saved, and their homes were also saved.

This was the first time that the entire Huaijiang Mansion held a banquet among the big families after the catastrophe, and the Yuan family also sent over one hundred thousand taels of silver this time, as well as more than a dozen boxes of gold, silver and jewelry.

Compared with the women's side, the men's side is even more disturbed.

They have really seen His Royal Highness Yi's temper, and they will throw the whip when they say it.

I used to think that beating my uncle was a rumor, unbelievable, but now who would dare not believe it?

Hearing that the Governor's Mansion of Liangjiang has been surrounded, and the Governor of Liangjiang has been taken to Huaijiang Mansion, everyone is even more afraid, because with the Governor of Liangjiang, how many of them are clean?
The carriage had just arrived at the entrance of the alley, and the Yuan family had already received the news, and they immediately went to the gate to greet him.

The city lord, Mrs. Yuan, Yuan Zhao and Yuan Zhao's two younger sisters.

Yuan Yu, Yuan Wu.

The two of them, one sixteen and the other fourteen, are both delicate and pretty little girls, and they have been carefully ordered by their mother long ago.

When the carriage stopped, Lai Fu got out of the carriage first, set up the stool, and said, "Your Highness, we're here!"

Xun Muyang got out of the carriage first, stood beside the carriage and stretched out his hand into the carriage, whispering softly, "Little!"

I saw a white and tender little hand stretched out, and on the pale pink sleeve, there was a circle of round pearls.

Then there was another one with a delicate face, with smiles on the corners of the eyes and brows, and beautiful eyes looking forward.

On the long pink gown on her body, pearls were circled on the collar, cuffs, and hem.

The pearls on the long skirt were fine and broken, but as she walked, the slight floating light made it clear that the embroidery threads were probably all silver threads.

I'm still a child now, and in two years' time, I'm sure I'll be a stunning beauty.

Zhu Xiaoyou led Xun Muyang out of the carriage.

The Yuan family immediately stepped forward to salute, "I have seen His Highness, I have seen Miss Zhu!"

"Exemption!" Xun Muyang responded lightly.

Leading Zhu Xiaoxian to take a step, the Yuan family immediately followed.

In the hall, Xun Muyang sat in the main seat, and the city lord sat on the other side of the desk.

Zhu Xiao sat next to Xun Muyang, facing Mrs. Yuan.

Behind Mrs. Yuan, Yuan Zhao, Yuan Yu, and Yuan Wu could only stand.

I hadn't noticed it before, but as soon as Zhu Xiao sat down, the embroidered shoes were exposed, and they were also a pair of pink shoes with a huge pearl on the upper.

The use of such a big pearl on the shoes shows how much Xun Muyang loves it.

Looking at her dress, she is elegant, with a pair of pearl earrings, her hair is pulled back, two pearl flowers are used, and the rest of her hair is combed into a ponytail hanging on her chest.

The dress is very simple, but it is simple and luxurious.

When the tea came, Zhu Xiaoduan sipped it lightly.

It is very fragrant.

After drinking tea, the city lord said, "Your Highness, the flowers in the back garden are blooming well!"

"The king doesn't like those flowers and plants, but Xiaoxiao likes them, so let's take her to have a look!" Xun Muyang said lightly, and looked at Yuan Zhao again, "Just let Yuan Zhao play a few games of chess with the king!"

The city lord couldn't have wished for more.

Before leaving, Xun Muyang smoothed Zhu Xiao's hair back, "Go and play, have fun!"

Zhu Xiao nodded.

Xun Muyang looked at Qi Hao, Xiang Zi, and Yu Chuan again, "Hao Sheng is waiting for you!"

"Yes!"

The three responded immediately.

Xun Muyang followed Yuan Zhao to play chess, and Lai Fu followed behind him, turning his head and winking at Zhu Xiao.

Zhu Xiao waved to him, signaling him to go quickly.

The small actions of the two fell into Madam Yuan's eyes, which made her feel a little more relaxed.

Being able to get along so well with a servant shows how good his temper is.

"Miss Zhu, please!"

"Madam Yuan, please!"

Mrs. Yuan took Zhu Xiao to the back garden, and only then did she leave. A little servant girl hurried over and saw that her face was full of anxiety.

Zhu Xiao said, "Mrs. Yuan, go and do your work. Just let the two young ladies take me with you!"

"This..." Madam Yuan hesitated, and seeing that the maid was really anxious, "Yu'er, Wu'er, take good care of Miss Zhu!"

"Yes, mother!"

Madam Yuan called her maid to leave.

Zhu Xiaocai exhaled lightly.

Seeing Yuan Yu and Yuan Wu, the sisters looked at each other.

"Miss Zhu is nervous?" Yuan Wu asked.

"It's not that I'm nervous, it's just that my lord is finally gone, so I don't have to straighten my back, I can relax a little bit!"

Yuan Wu heard the words, and immediately echoed, "No, my mother is very strict with us!"

But no matter how severe it is, it is not as scary as His Royal Highness Yi Wang.

But just now seeing His Royal Highness Yi Wang, he is really gentle towards Miss Zhu.

Yuan Wu stepped forward and took Zhu Xiao's hand, "Miss Zhu, how old are you this year?"

"twelve!"

"My name is Yuan Wu. I am fourteen this year. My sister Yuan Yu is sixteen this year. If you don't mind, why don't we call you sister?"

"Sister Wu, sister Yu, you can call me Xiaoxiao!" Zhu Xiao said softly.

She feels that the two sisters are actually very smart and have high emotional intelligence.

At least she doesn't hate getting along with her for a while.

"Little sister!" Yuan Wu called softly.

"..."

All three were taken aback.

Then they all laughed.

Because of this smile, a lot of embarrassment was reduced.

The two sisters took Zhu Xiao to the back garden. Yuan Wu was more lively and talkative, holding Zhu Xiao on his arm and chatting non-stop, introducing the interesting scenery in the mansion.

Yuan Yu is relatively reserved, she hardly speaks, she just smiles so gently, once Yuan Wu says something wrong, she will speak softly and change the subject without a trace.

A really smart girl.

　There will be three more updates, come at six o'clock, it should be updated
