As they were talking, they arrived at the garden and were stunned when they saw the decoration.
The garden is decorated mainly in light colors, with blue and white hydrangeas lining the roads, which looks elegant. However, the archway wrapped in blue and white tulle in front of you makes people feel uncomfortable.
Although the arch is decorated with many bouquets of flowers, the base color is still mainly blue and white, supplemented by moon white, frost color, fish belly white and other colors.
The path extended all the way to the door of the greenhouse. There was a table at the door, covered with a white tablecloth. There were some exquisite boxes piled high on the ground, and no one knew what was inside.
There are two long tables on each side of the path, covered with white tablecloths. The tables are also decorated with blue and white bouquets, chrysanthemums and other flowers as embellishments, which add to the theme and make the colors less plain. Various teas, snacks and freshly steamed crabs of Fatty are placed on the tables.
The round tables and stools scattered around were all covered with white towels, and the flower arrangements on the tables were mainly moon white and crystal white. There were only a few pots of chrysanthemums and flowers placed around to suit the occasion.
Mrs. Chen opened her mouth but couldn't find anything to say, so she could only pull Qin Wan to find a place to sit down.
Bai Wanyi was quite proud when he saw the two people's stunned reactions. This is the most popular color combination in later generations!
It’s a pity that the colors are not rich now, and the combination to achieve such an effect can only be said to be barely acceptable, but even so, it shocked these country bumpkins.
Bai Wanyi noticed that most of the guests had arrived. He walked to the table at the entrance of the greenhouse and clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention. "Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to today's flower viewing banquet. Before the banquet begins, let me introduce our new Avril lipstick."
Bai Wanyi's eyes swept across the crowd and landed on Qin Wan. "Since you're here, don't blame me for using you to attract attention." She smiled and said, "Lipstick is another name for lip grease. I think lipstick is more appropriate."
After saying that, she picked up a box of lipstick. She had no choice but to use the box first because she couldn't make a screw-on container in the short time. "There are three colors in total. The first one is a man-killing color. Now let's find someone to test the color. Miss Qin, can you demonstrate it?"
Qin Wan looked at Bai Wanyi, wanting to know what she was up to. She couldn't just be trying to embarrass herself, could she? Just as she was about to stand up, someone suddenly approached.
"Mrs. Lu."
Everyone present turned around and saw that it was a palace lady-in-waiting, and they all became curious.
"Madam."
"Is it because of the Empress's order? The Pingyang Marquis family is truly favored by the Emperor."
Bai Wanyi didn't recognize this female official, at least not the one who delivered the imperial edict last time. However, she recognized her clothes and thought it was a good omen, so she hurried forward and asked, "What brings you here, my lord?"
The female official glanced at the scene and said, "The Empress has given the order that Marquis Lu and his wife, Madam Lu, will be married. The Empress has gifted them with a phoenix crown, a jade ruyi, gold and silver items, and some cloth. On the day of the wedding, the phoenix crown and other items were taken back to the palace. The cloth has yet to be returned. When does Madam Lu plan to return the cloth?"
???
Bai Wanyi was stunned: "I don't know."
The female official smiled faintly: "It doesn't matter whether Madam Lu knows or not, she should return it as soon as possible."
Bai Wanyi's expression was grim, but no matter how unhappy he was, he had to patiently deal with the female official: "Sir, let's go in and discuss this in detail."
Madam Chen watched Bai Wanyi and the female officials leave, grinning from ear to ear: "With so many people here, the Empress sent people to ask for things. Isn't this a slap in the face of the Bai family? It's really satisfying."
Qin Wan frowned, feeling that something was wrong. She followed Bai Wanyi's figure and saw that the female official had hinted at a reward several times, but Bai Wanyi seemed not to notice.
Chu Yun followed behind Bai Wanyi. When he saw it, he said nothing and made no move. He just lowered his head and waited for Hou's orders at any time.
Chu Yun didn't move, and Qin Wan was not surprised. This girl was very thoughtful. But why didn't Bai Wanyi look down on her now?
Or does she have someone to rely on?
Qin Wan tends to the second one. Now several princes are trying to win over Lu Yan. Even though His Majesty has reprimanded and punished him, the princes have never alienated him.
What's more, Bai Wanyi and the Fourth Prince seemed to have some secrets, so why would they want to please a palace lady?
only……
If the Queen wanted to help the Sixth Prince win over Lu Yan, why would she send someone to ask for the cloth back in such an occasion?
It's just a few pieces of cloth. The queen wouldn't be so stingy.
It is said that people are often reminded of something. Qin Wan had just finished her thought when she saw the Sixth Prince coming, with someone following behind him leisurely. Who else could it be but Crown Prince Xie Qing?
The Sixth Prince said something to the female official and she left.
The Sixth Prince chatted with Bai Wanyi for a few words, then took Xie Qing to find a place for the group of young masters to sit down.
It just so happens that this place is not far from Qin Wan.
When Xie Qing saw Qin Wan, he smiled at her and got a big eye roll in return.
Qin Wan is really annoyed with Xie Qing, he won’t go away!
"It seems the Sixth Prince helped Madam Lu block it. The cloth doesn't need to be returned." Madam Chen could guess what was going on without even asking, but she was still curious about something else. "I heard you got into a fight with the Crown Prince at the city gate? What did His Majesty say? And nothing happened after entering the palace once? The Empress, who always protects the Crown Prince, didn't even hold you accountable?"
Qin Wan laughed. "I thought you'd ask me as soon as we met. It's a shame you waited until now."
"Don't you have time? Come on, tell me."
Qin Wan whispered about His Majesty's decision, but naturally there was no decision.
Mrs. Chen was very surprised and wanted to ask more questions when she saw Bai Wanyi coming on stage again.
Compared to the embarrassment just now, Bai Wanyi is really in high spirits at this moment. So what if the queen sends someone?
The Sixth Prince took action, and the Crown Prince followed.
In Bai Wanyi's eyes, the one who came to help her was not the Sixth Prince, but the Crown Prince.
Men really say one thing and mean another!
In front of the man she likes, Bai Wanyi still has to maintain her composure, and immediately pulls Chu Yun to demonstrate.
Mrs. Chen looked at the brightly colored lip balm and smiled, "She called it lipstick, which is quite appropriate."
"This color is nice." Qin Wan nodded.
Mrs. Chen was surprised: "You don't want to buy it? This thing shouldn't be cheap."
Qin Wan shook her head without hesitation: "She is here to make money today, so the things must be very expensive. I won't help her pay off her debts."
Mrs. Chen stared at the lip balm, looking left and right, and said with regret: "It would be better if the price was cheaper, it's too expensive."
Isn’t it expensive?
The lip balm that can kill men costs two hundred and ninety-eight taels of silver. It is said that it is less than three hundred taels, isn’t it?
The difference of two taels is the annual food expenses for an ordinary family.
Even so, the merchants who came here saw the business opportunity and rushed to place orders.
Qin Wan looked at the flower-viewing banquet, which was now full of the smell of money, and shook her head. It was a good idea, but it was a wrong occasion. What a pity.
