"Fourth girl, it's time to get up." Qing Huan lifted the curtain beside the bed and called softly.

The girl on the bed turned over unhappily, revealing a fair little face. Qinghuan didn't rush her, but after waiting for a while, she reminded softly: "Fourth girl, you have to attend the second princess's Hundred Flowers Banquet today.

.”

Banquet of Hundreds of Flowers! Jiang Shuyao suddenly woke up. The second princess Xue Xuan is the daughter of Concubine De. Concubine De is the daughter of Zuo Cheng’s Zhen family. In recent days, Zuo Cheng has been overpowering You Cheng in the court. Concubine De is now

Just feeling proud.

The purpose of the second Duke's banquet is obvious.

It is autumn now, which is not a good time for flowers to bloom. The second princess Xue Xuan dares to hold a flower banquet at this time, and her intention to show off is simply unabashed.

But... Jiang Shuyao didn't care what her purpose was. The reason why she valued today so much was because, if she remembered correctly, today was the first time the prince saw Jiang Shurou in the original work.

"Quickly, freshen up for me." Jiang Shuyao sat up from the bed and quickly walked to the mirror.

Now, she is eleven years old, and her little face is getting brighter and brighter. Because she has been exercising with Sister Huo every day since she was four years old, her body is now very well-proportioned. But the baby fat on her face has not gone away.

But it's okay, she's still young and doesn't have to worry.

After finishing the meal, Jiang Shuyao hurriedly ran to find her mother. It was said to be a flower viewing party, but in fact it was a large-scale blind date party for men and women of the right age. Now that the eldest sister and brother have reached the age of getting engaged, she has to take care of them.

Ichiban.

As soon as she left Youyouxuan, Jiang Shuyao was so cold that she wrapped her coat tightly. The autumn wind was still a bit cold after all. She was forced to slow down her pace.

"Mom," Jiang Shuyao couldn't help but patted her cold face as soon as she arrived at the main courtyard: "It's really cold today."

When Mrs. Chen saw this, she took her hand and touched it. Her hand was still warm, and Mrs. Chen felt relieved.

She took advantage of the situation and pulled Jiang Shuyao to the table: "Early this morning, the shopkeeper of 'Maoyan Maoyu' sent last month's bill. Come and take a look."

"Cat Talk" is a pet shop opened by Jiang Shuyao. When it first opened, the business was unexpectedly booming. But Jiang Shuyao thought that the business might not be so good in a few years. Just in case, she later opened

People added some cat toys, cat food, etc.

Sure enough, after the cat-buying craze, the pet store's sales gradually dropped. But fortunately, they still made a small profit every month and did not lose money.

As early as the beginning of today, Mrs. Chen began to teach Jiang Shuyao to read the account books. Now she also lets Jiang Shuyao do it by himself from time to time.

"Last month's profit was actually lower than usual?" Jiang Shuyao was a little confused. It shouldn't be. In recent years, the monthly accounts have been almost the same. How could it suddenly drop?

Jiang Shuyao looked at Mrs. Chen, hoping to get the answer from her.

"If I remember correctly," things have been too busy recently, and Mrs. Chen is a little unsure: "It seems that a new store with a similar appearance has opened in Beijing."

'Cat Talk' has been around for so many years, and almost anyone who is interested can find out the fact that the Xuanping Marquis Mansion is behind it. Under such circumstances, there are still people who dare to blatantly provoke. It is not easy to think about their identity.

Perhaps because he was thinking about Jiang Shurou, Jiang Shuyao immediately thought of the prince Xue Qiong. After all, how could the male protagonist of the novel have no money? So in the original book, Xue Qiong opened many shops secretly.

But no matter who it is, it doesn't matter. After all, if the pet shop is doing well, sooner or later someone will follow suit. Jiang Shuyao just wanted to open a new shop.

"Does mother know who owns the shop next to 'Cat Talk'?"

"Oh?" Mrs. Chen guessed her daughter's thoughts in an instant: "You have a new idea?"

Jiang Shuyao gave up and said, "Don't tell mother for now. If that shop can be bought, I will tell mother."

But... the owner of that shop may not agree to it.

There is only one shop next to 'Cat Talk and Cat Talk', which is a teahouse. However, on weekdays, it seems that not many people go there. But for so many years, even if the business is bleak, I have never heard that the boss has any plans to transfer it.

Jiang Shuyao wrinkled her face in confusion.

Forget it, I'd better ask if I have time. It's useless to think about it for a long time.

"Mom, do you have any clues about my brother's marriage?"

When talking about her son, Mrs. Chen became a little worried. Her son was already sixteen years old, but he still didn't want to get engaged. She didn't know why, but she and Jiang Xuxiang had visited so many girls, but Jiang Huai

Look down on none of them.

When I asked him, he also said that he was not interested in women for the time being. What did he mean?

"A few days ago, your father and I helped him take a look at the second daughter of Taifu Li's family. She was a girl raised by Taifu. She has no manners or temperament, and her appearance is not picky. But he was not satisfied." Mrs. Chen

He rubbed his eyebrows angrily: "If this continues, your brother will probably be suspected of having a habit of cutting off his sleeves."

Jiang Shuyao is also helpless. His brother is not obsessed with reading like his elder brother, nor is he focused on practicing martial arts all day like Sister Huo. I don’t know what he does in his daily life, but he is not interested in getting married.

She looked at him, but he just didn't have the strength to do it.

"Mom, don't be angry." Jiang Shuyao massaged her mother skillfully: "Today at the banquet, I will help my brother pay more attention."

But what can they do if they pay more attention? Girls with suitable conditions in the capital are almost noticed by them.

Mrs. Chen could only comfort herself that it was okay, maybe there was an oversight. Maybe he would have the girl he likes once he went to the banquet.

"I won't tell you about etiquette at the banquet. Remember, don't conflict with others, but don't be bullied either." Feeling the right strength of her daughter, Mrs. Chen gradually relaxed. After all, her daughter is still considerate.

.

Today is different from the past. Now the eldest prince and the prince are fighting openly and secretly. The Xuanping Marquis Mansion automatically falls into the camp of the third prince because of Chen's younger sister, Concubine Shu.

For them, Marquis Xuanping is still worth wooing and will not fall out easily. But if one day one party retreats and the third prince is targeted by the victorious party, their house may inevitably be targeted.

Therefore, it is good to leave less talk, no matter what.

"My daughter understands." Jiang Shuyao naturally understood.

"Okay, I won't restrain you anymore. You should hurry up and get ready and go to the banquet."

"good."

The safest thing about Xuanpinghou Mansion is that it has no real power, and the most dangerous thing is that it has no real power. But who can tell whether it is more good or more bad?

Fortunately, no one dares to touch the Xuanping Marquis Mansion's foundation in the capital for the time being.
