Chapter 333: Return

Li also made a new dress for Ren Yaoying. It was a pink jacket embroidered with white plum blossoms. The material and workmanship were similar to those of Ren Yaohua and Ren Yaoying. After Ren Yaoying got the clothes, he came over and thanked Li. Going up is still a little sad and can't lift the energy.
The first ones to come today are Mrs. Liu and his daughter Liu Menghan. They also brought a pot of tiger head orchid that they planted.
This is what I said before. Since today is a flower viewing party, the ladies and ladies who come to participate must bring flowers, and finally the oiran must be judged.
After that, Mrs. Chen, mother, daughter and two other wives also came. Mrs. Chen brought a pot of "Luoyang Red", the other two wives brought a pot of "Cui Yipin" and the other brought a pot of "Wei Zi".
Ouyang and several older wives came later. Ouyang brought a basin of "White Snow Tower" and a basin of "Phoenix Zhenyu", and the other wives also brought famous products in the flowers.
Li asked people to set up a pergola in the courtyard, put out the famous flowers in the home, and put up a low table and low stools, so that people served tea and snacks. Before moving here, Master Ren San refurbished the yard up and down, and repaired them according to his aesthetics. Apart from anything else, Master Ren San was still very talented and insightful in this respect. , So even if it is just an ordinary courtyard, it also gives people a sense of refreshment.
It happened to be early summer, and the morning was not very hot. There was a pergola in the yard for shade, breezy, sitting in the courtyard, enjoying flowers and tea, and chatting about fun things in the city, it was also very pleasant.
Today, there are some wives and young ladies who have excellent tutors, and they can only talk about gossip. Everyone knew about the changes in the Ren family a while ago, but no one came up with it, even secretly talking about it, and respected the master. The temperaments of these wives are extremely appetite for Li, so she also really wants to befriend them.
Sisters Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua chatted with Liu Menghan, Chen Zhiyi and two other young ladies about flowers and plants. Although the young ladies were young, they all had some knowledge after reading books, especially Liu Menghan and Chen Zhiyi. They can also be regarded as women with extensive knowledge and strong knowledge, and with a wide-sighted Ren Yaoqi, they also talked very well together.
Ren Yaoying had been out for a while before, but the ladies who came today were all prostitutes. Although they didn't mean to look down on Ren Yaoying or verbally run her against her, Ren Yaoying always felt that others were treating Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua. She was enthusiastic, but very indifferent to her. After sitting for a while, she felt uncomfortable, and finally found an excuse to hide in the room.
Ren Yaoqi was listening to Liu Menghan and Chen Zhiyi’s witty remarks about whether the "Tigerhead Orchid" from the Liu family was better, or the "Luoyang Red" from the Chen family was better. The outside concierge hurried in to report that there was a guest. Arrived.
Ren Yaoqi wondered if anyone would come over at this time. All the wives and ladies who were invited in the previous post have arrived, except for a Mrs. Li who was unable to come over because her natal brother had a good son.
Ren Yaoqi was wondering, but saw a tall and delicate woman with a heroic spirit appearing at the gate of the courtyard.
Ren Yaoqi was overjoyed when he saw the person coming: "Princess?"
Everyone who was talking and laughing softly was also startled by Xiao Jinglin who suddenly appeared here, or Ouyang Clan reacted and said with a smile: "Oh, the princess is back?"
Everyone got up and saluted Xiao Jinglin. Xiao Jinglin nodded: "I heard that there is a flower viewing party here. I'll come and have a look. You are free, don't worry about me."
Li hurriedly asked someone to add another seat.
Ren Yaoqi greeted him with a smile, and groaned: "When did you come back, Jinglin? Why didn't you say a word when you wrote?"
Xiao Jinglin also showed a smile on her face: "What? It scared you?"
Ren Yaoqi blinked: "How can it be a shock, a surprise. I thought you won't be able to come back until mid-term."
Xiao Jinglin nodded to the ladies who greeted her, and then said: "I came back early this morning. I originally planned to see you tomorrow, but Xiao Jingxi said that you are holding a flower viewing party today. Let me come and have a look. ."
Ren Yaoqi paused when Xiao Jinglin mentioned Xiao Jingxi.
Although I don't know how Xiao Jingxi knew that her family held a flower fair today, she could probably guess Xiao Jingxi's intention to let Xiao Jinglin come over. Li and them wanted to gain a firm foothold in Yunyang City, and with the recognition of the princess or Yanbei Palace, they would have a smoother future.
Xiao Jinglin didn’t see the look on Ren Yaoqi’s face. She looked at the bonsai around her. Although she couldn’t see the difference between the precious varieties of flowers and those grown in the garden, she remembered that she had just brought them in a hurry. Xiao Jinglin was still hesitant to take out the pot that came over.
Hong Ying, who was following Xiao Jinglin, did not see the tangles on Princess Xiao's face. She watched the princess look at the flowers in the yard, and ran out and brought in the flowers they had dropped on the carriage.
When everyone saw Princess Xiao's maid holding flowers, they all looked over curiously.
"Huh? What kind of flower is this?" A young lady leaned over curiously.
Xiao Jinglin's face was deep.
"Oh, there are thorns!" The little girl exclaimed, clutching her fingers.
Liu Menghan and Chen Zhiyi looked at each other, and then cautiously said: "This is... a cactus?"
"Huh? Cactus? Is a cactus a flower?"
"Isn't this cactus blooming? Forget it...it's a flower..."
Ren Yaoqi glanced at Xiao Jinglin and couldn't help laughing.
Xiao Jinglin nodded and said to everyone: "This is what my second brother planted. I saw this thing blooming quite strangely, so I brought it over and made fun of it."
When everyone heard this, their attention was immediately attracted by Young Master Xiao.
Who is Second Young Master Xiao! That's a banal character! The flowers planted by Young Master Xiao must be different from ordinary flowers! Even if it's just a potted cactus.
So looking at this pot of cactus, the suspicion turned into various speculations.
Ren Yaoqi gave Xiao Jinglin a mocking look. Others didn't know, but she knew that Xiao Jinglin's favorite thing to do was to use Xiao Jingxi as a shield.
After that, the sun got bigger, and Li once again entertained everyone to the Big Flower Hall, which he had cleaned up before.
Ren Yaoqi took the opportunity to take Xiao Jinglin to her room to talk.
Although the two hadn't seen each other for two years, they often exchanged letters, so they didn't feel strange.
It’s just that Ren Yaoqi looked at Xiao Jinglin and seemed to have grown a lot taller. She was about the same height as her before, but now she is half a head taller, and perhaps because of frequent visits abroad, Xiao Jinglin’s complexion is slightly darker. But it made her look more chiseled, with a beauty different from other boudoir daughters.
Xiao Jinglin looked at Ren Yaoqi but felt that she looked better than two years ago. Ren Yaoqi had passed her fourteen-year-old birth a while ago, and her facial features were a little more open than two years ago, and her appearance and temperament became more provocative. Especially today, the goose-yellow clothes lined up her white and translucent skin, and she looked beautiful and dusty.
However, Princess Xiao looked at Ren Yaoqi and compared her to her, and said a little disgustingly: "Why is it so short?"
Ren Yaoqi couldn't help laughing, and didn't care about her.
"Why come back early? I remember you said before that you would come back a few days before your birthday." Xiao Jinglin's birthday is June 22nd, and Ren Yaoqi thought she would be back in June at the earliest.
Xiao Jinglin said: "My mother said that there will be a lot of people who will come to me and the ceremony. Let me come back earlier to prepare."
Ren Yaoqi nodded.
The princess and the princess of Yanbei Palace can also be regarded as a major event in Yanbei. At that time, both Ningxia and the court will send people to Yanbei to congratulate them.
The relationship between Yanbei, Ningxia, and the imperial court is very sensitive now, so it's good for Xiao Jinglin to come back earlier.
"By the way, Yun Wenfang seems to be back." Xiao Jinglin said suddenly.
Xiao Jinglin would occasionally mention Yun Wenfang in the correspondence with Ren Yaoqi. I heard that he is now the fifth-grade general Yingyang, and he has brought a team of people under her hand and has made outstanding achievements.
Ren Yaoqi just looked at Yun Wenfang's news and never expressed his opinion.
When Xiao Jinglin said that Yun Wenfang would be back, Ren Yaoqi just smiled.
In the past two years, Yun Wenfang should have experienced a lot of things. Ren Yaoqi hopes that he can truly grow up. As for them, there is nothing to do in this life, and there will be no future.
If Xiao Jinglin did not mention Yun Wenfang, Ren Yaoqi would not deliberately think of him.
Seeing that Ren Yaoqi's attitude was flat, Xiao Jinglin did not continue to talk about Yun Wenfang. It's just that she had seen Yun Wenfang several times when she was at the border. Although Yun Wenfang was considered a qualified general from the perspective of a soldier, Xiao Jinglin also slowly changed her contempt for him.
However, she can also see that people like Yun Wenfang are very persistent and will not easily give up their goals. This is why she will tell Ren Yaoqi the news of Yun Wenfang. I just hope that Ren Yaoqi knows it well.
Ren Yaoqi smiled and asked, "Why did you come back early? I remember you said before that you would come back a few days before your birthday."
Xiao Jinglin said blankly: "The author asked me to come back quickly to help her sell a cute, and increase the ticket. I saw that she was crying very badly, so she did a good thing that day."
Ren Yaoqi: "..."
