Ten Again to Fight against Her Fate

When they arrived outside the Hidden Fragrance Pavilion, Mother Du, who was by their grandmother's side, led a group of servants and women to stand outside the courtyard. They surrounded the Hidden Fragrance Pavilion as they watched the bright lights from afar.

I smiled at Lu Ping. "Looks like we're late." I originally wanted to take advantage of my father's panic to get some words out of him, but now it seems impossible. Although grandmother tacitly agreed to my plan, she didn't want her son to put on airs in front of this junior.

"Let's go back." I sighed and turned around, preparing to head back. It seemed that I was doing the wedding for someone else.

"Miss? How is Red Dew? We're not going to take a look? " Lu Ping stood on the spot, puzzled.

"With such a large lineup, naturally, Red Dew will have it!" I smiled and glared at Lu Ping. This silly girl.

I took Lu Ping back to my grandmother's room. Lu Kou was standing at the entrance to the courtyard with three to five little girls behind him. There was still steam coming from the snacks in his hands.

Nutmeg curtsied slightly and stood behind Green Pine and me. She followed me into the yard.

Reaching the door, Red Jade was standing in front of the steps as she escorted her mother back to her room. She said to her mother, "The old lady said that Master drank a few jugs of wine and was drunk. "I'll be resting with the old lady tonight. Madam, please go back first." The mother asked curiously, "Where is Master?" I'll go and take care of it. " Hong Yu replied respectfully, "The old lady said that she would like to speak with the lord and asked the madam to return to her room to rest first." My mother had no choice but to leave. I stood at the entrance to the courtyard and bowed to her. Before I could speak, I said, "Go back and rest. Your grandmother will rest." Do you think I didn't hear what Red Jade said, or do you think I'm soft enough to bully?

"No more fireworks?" I asked, pretending not to know.

Mother's expression immediately became unsightly. She must've thought about how Aunt Wang would wake me up when she said 'don't forget to release the fireworks.' It was obvious that these were the coquettish words her daughter had said to her mother.

"Didn't you hear that your grandmother has stopped? Why are you still setting off fireworks! " His mother scolded him harshly.

"What about Father? I have not yet paid my respects to my father. "

"Your father drank some wine, so I will take care of him. We'll talk about it in the morning." Mother waved her hand as if she was annoyed, gesturing for me to go back quickly. I smiled. After tonight, you can still confidently say that you are here to take care of me? I'm afraid that the world is often unpredictable, and I'm afraid that you will have a worse time in the future.

I brought Lu Ping and Nutmeg back to my room. The servants and wives were still immersed in the joy of the New Year, while the maids' rooms were bustling with laughter. The servants' rooms were also filled with laughter, causing Lu Ping to frown slightly.

"Let them play. It's a rare occasion in a year." I laughed.

"You guys should go and play as well." I said to the girls behind me.

After the girls saluted, they all left. They went to find their own sisters to play. Lu'er bowed and went to the kitchen.

"She went to prepare hot water for the young lady." Seeing me looking at Nutmeg's back, Lu Ping explained for her. In my heart, I was thinking about someone as appropriate as Nutmeg, but it's a pity that her mother and father are both working at the mansion, so would she be willing to follow me?

"You should go play too!" I turned around and said to Lu Ping, but she shook her head. "I am following the young mistress." Thinking that Lu Ping probably wasn't in the mood to play around, I instructed with a smile, "Then, you can go to each room and serve us a cup of wine! "You are the big girl by my side. If you go, it will be like me going." Lu Ping wrapped the pastries I had just given to my grandmother in oilpaper and took them to various rooms. I smiled and went back to my room.

When she came back, her face was red, as if she had drunk wine, and when she saw me lying on the kang, I had changed my clothes.

I beckoned to her. "You see, I stitched two stitches just like you, do you think that's all right?" Lu Ping narrowed her eyes and smiled, "Miss has embroidered the wrong longitude!"

My face reddened. "You're so drunk!" She put down her embroidery shed and walked into the screen.

When I heard the rustling sound of the bed being turned over, I couldn't help but laugh. This silly girl, she has to think about this as well as that. I really don't know if she thinks that I have three heads and six arms.

"Sleep early. Tomorrow morning, you still have to congratulate your good sister." I said to the outside. In a moment I was asleep and dreamless all night.

"The next morning, Lu Ping dressed me up and helped me change my clothes. She found a pink-embroidered peach blossom with a red horse mask beneath it. Her head was also covered with a set of silver and agate hair. I could not keep my mouth shut from laughing." Go and get me a new set of clothes, not pink and red! " Lu Ping doubtfully asked, "Isn't this set of clothes nice to look at?"

"I can't just steal the limelight from the newbies!" I laughed. I went to my grandmother's room wearing a flimsy gold-embroidered apricot jacket, a peacock blue embroidered with gold, and a small gold crown of sapphire on my head.

When he arrived, the atmosphere in his grandmother's courtyard was a bit weird. The young maidservants weren't laughing like usual, they were all standing silently on the veranda. The usually loud servants were also whispering. Red Jade drew the curtain for me and followed me into the house.

His grandmother was sitting in the main hall, wearing a red-striped coat and a dress bordered with navy blue jade and orchid. Her silver hair was neatly combed, and she wore a jade ornament on her forehead. "My mother sat on the first stool to my grandmother's right. She wore a white silk jacket with a golden butterfly, an apricot-colored crepe dress, and a bouffant rose bag at her waist. She had a bun on her head and wore a verdant mask. She had obviously been carefully dressed up.

"How did I give birth to such a vile spawn like you!" "My grandmother wept while wiping away her tears." All of you have taken a fancy to the people around me. I have a few girls by my side, if you want them like this, my heart will ache! " Grandmother kept wiping the corners of her eyes with her handkerchief, her voice full of energy. It didn't look like she was crying at all.

Mother Du stood aside, holding a tray with a packet of silver wrapped in a red packet. Her expression was that of someone who wanted to laugh but didn't dare to. His mother was sitting there with an ashen face, frowning as she looked at the woman kneeling in front of him, holding a teacup to her eyebrows, holding a woman's bun, with two red velvet flowers by her ear, wearing a pair of small pearl gold earrings, wearing a pink paisley, and a red skirt piled up on the green brick, which had the pattern of a pomegranate flower. Pomegranate, is more son more blessing meaning, ginger or the older spicy! Such a precious piece of fabric was obviously given to her by her grandmother. This outfit was definitely a slap to her mother's face.

"How can you be so heartless? It's been half a year since you left, don't you know that an old mother is waiting for you at home? I think I'm going to cry for a while, and my eyes are going to go blind. It's not easy to get someone close to you, and now that you're leaving, how am I supposed to live on in the future? " At this moment, Grandmother looked as though she was about to cry. I couldn't help but secretly cheer for Grandmother in my heart, as I wanted to see how Mother would deal with this.
