"I am your master, and I must be more concerned about your affairs," Cheng Yunshuo said like a father, "If you don't learn some rules, how will you get married in the future!"
"I, it's okay if I don't get married!"
"How can this be possible!" Cheng Yunshuo said with a serious face, "How can a woman not get married these days!"
"Why not? If not, I will be the first one!" Du Ruo raised his head with a proud look on his face.
Cheng Yunshuo saw her like this and scolded her sternly, "Stop talking such nonsense! Do you really think you are a three-year-old child! You don't understand anything."
Well, Cheng Yunshuo is also a well-connected person.
He also knew that Du Ruocheng's quirky and novel personality was like that of a three-year-old child.
On a daily basis, the little things seemed novel and interesting, and he was willing to accompany her and play with her. But when it came to big issues, he didn't know that her ideas were childish and ridiculous and could not be put on the stage.
It was the first time Du Ruo heard Cheng Yunshuo say that to her. She immediately suppressed her blush and looked at Cheng Yunshuo with wide eyes.
Cheng Yunshuo didn't even discuss matters like this at all, "Du Ruo, I have been entrusted by your brothers, and I will be responsible for you. If you continue to laugh like this and show no integrity, then you can go back. I can't control you."
After Lu Lingjun told him yesterday, he also realized that he had to bear a lot of responsibility for bringing Du Ruo to him.
This is not a matter of multiple people and multiple pairs of chopsticks giving her a bowl of rice.
Lu Lingjun was right, you shouldn't take things lightly, lest you attract resentment.
Du Ruo was very angry after being taught a lesson, but she couldn't leave, let alone didn't want to leave. She snorted, "Then I can't learn from it in the future!"
Cheng Yunshuo looked better when he saw her relenting. He looked at Lu Lingyun at this moment and said, "Lingyun, I have to trouble you with something."
"Oh?" Lu Lingjun raised his head after watching the show for a long time.
She is in a good mood now.
"There will be a hairpin banquet in a few days. Aruo's aunt is still ill. She wants to ask you to take Aruo to the banquet. I will accept it for you." Cheng Yunshuo didn't know what the hairpin banquet represented.
I thought it was just a flower-viewing party for ladies in the circle.
Lu Lingjun: "..."
"By the way, Sister Wang will also come that day. It was the wife of Deputy Commander Zhang of the Royal Forest Army who was in the teahouse that day. It was she who told me that she wanted to be your companion."
Lu Lingjun: "...Okay."
What else could be done? Cheng Yunshuo agreed.
But it seems that she is also a foil, and Mrs. Wang will go together. It is obvious that she is the host who has arranged for Du Ruo to take Du Ruo to the banquet.
Besides, she was going to go, so she took Du Ruo with her.
Du Ruo heard that she was going to some hairpin party, but her mind was not on that.
Her mind and eyes were filled with what her master had just said.
She snorted and went back to her room first.
The next day, Lu Lingjun sent someone to Caitang Pavilion to ask Qin Shaojing if he wanted to go with him.
After Qin Shaojing heard about the Hairpin Flower Banquet and inquired about its scale and the number of participants, he rejected Lu Lingyun.
She disliked the low-level quality of this hairpin banquet.
The person taking the lead was a wife of a Western-style civil servant, who mainly looked after her daughter's son-in-law, and most of the people who came were from the civil servants' side.
Official positions are all below Xipin.
There are only a few distinguished families, and the one with the highest status is Lu Lingjun's Ningyang Marquis Mansion.
This level was so low that she couldn't stand it at all.
She first used the excuse that she would go to enjoy the flowers with Cui Tonghua in a few days, so she refused the banquet.
If she didn't go, Lu Lingyun wouldn't say anything. Three days later.
The hairpin feast begins.
She led Du Ruo into the carriage.
She bought Du Ruo a new set of clothes. The most fashionable Jiangnan Yun brocade at the moment was still delicate pink. She added a pair of silver-pinned pink chalcedony hairpins with burning peach blossoms on her hair. Chalcedony is not a valuable item, and the one in the middle is Emerald agate is quite valuable.
With this combination, Du Ruo's beauty adds a touch of dignity and nobility.
Lu Lingjun looked satisfied and led her out the door.
As soon as she arrived at the door of the Hairpin Banquet, she ran into Mr. Wang.
"Sister Lu!" Wang greeted Lu Lingjun affectionately.
"Sister Wang." Lu Lingjun stepped forward with a smile.
"By the way, I told my husband about your heir apparent, and he said don't worry, he is on the imperial guard selection list this time. He is already writing the paperwork and preparing to issue it." Wang held the landing order. Jun's hand, a smile on his face.
"Sorry, Sister Wang."
"What the hell!" Wang said cheerfully. At this moment, she saw Du Ruo getting off Lu Lingjun's carriage.
Suddenly, her eyes lit up.
"Aruo?!"
Du Ruo, who was wearing a pink skirt, walked forward reluctantly and said, "Aunt Wang."
"Ouch!" Mrs. Wang looked at the brand-new Du Ruo up and down, looking back and forth, "Now that you have entered the Marquis Mansion, it is really different!"
Du Ruo's temper became much calmer after Lu Lingjun's rebuke. He was lectured by Cheng Yunshuo for several days in a row, and he no longer had the wanton demeanor before.
After changing into a new dress and new skirt, she gained a feminine posture, and Lu Lingjun's aesthetics made her even more dignified and noble.
At first glance, Wang was filled with surprises. She turned to look at Lu Lingyun, "Sister Lu, you are so attentive to your upbringing! This person has only been with you for a few days, and he seems like a different person!"
"No way, it's all A Ruo's own idea."
"Come on, I don't know her yet. Her aunt is my neighbor. I watched A Ruo grow up. Her appearance has not changed in her aunt's house for several years. No one can teach her. I have only been in your house for a few days, and the huge changes are definitely due to you! Sister Lu is worthy of being the young lady of the Hou Mansion!"
Lu Lingjun smiled, and she followed Wang to look at Du Ruo.
Du Ruo frowned, his face becoming more and more unconvinced.
Just when she was about to get angry, throw off these feminine headdresses, and act like herself, she heard crisp sounds coming from behind her.
"big sister!"
"big sister!"
When Lu Lingjun and others turned around, they saw the Lu family's carriage stopped.
The two sisters Liu Qingping and Liu Qingshuang came down first and all came to her.
"You two are here." Lu Lingjun smiled at them.
"Sister, you came so early."
"Sister, I miss you!"
Liu Qingping and Liu Qingshuang, one on the left and one on the right, entangled Lu Lingyun.
Lu Lingjun glanced at the two of them and said to Shuang Hong, "Shuang Hong, bring the things."
"Yes." Shuanghong handed over two boxes.
The box was opened, and inside were a crabapple hairpin and a golden spring jasmine hairpin.
The crabapple hairpin is inlaid with rubies, and the jasmine hairpin is inlaid with yellow sapphires.
They are all noble and good-looking hairpins, which are as valuable as the pink chalcedony hairpin on Du Ruo's head.
"This is for you two." Lu Lingjun said generously.
"What a beauty!"
"Sister, you are so good!"
