Chapter 250: It's always possible to negotiate

Mrs. Ji tried to send a letter to invite Zhu Xuntao to come, or to go to the house.

The final result was that whether Zhu Xuntao came or not, or went to the house, Mrs. Ji might not be able to bring her daughter to see Zhu Xuntao. These methods did not work.

This time, Mrs. Ji would not give up until she succeeded.

Feeling that Mrs. Ji was holding her hand particularly hard, Jiang Yijing was both proud and helpless.

What was proud was that these noble ladies who once looked down on Zhu Xuntao were still eager to get close to Zhu Xuntao.

How could they remember their former faces?

What was helpless was that even if Jiang Yijing knew what these people were thinking, she was impatient with these interpersonal exchanges. It was really meaningless.

Obviously, Mrs. Ji was not the only one who had similar ideas.

The ladies waiting in the back saw that Madam Ji had stopped Jiang Yijing like this,

so they didn't care about anything else. They surrounded her one by one, saying the same thing as Madam Ji,

asking Jiang Yijing to hold a flower banquet or something at the Yongjing Marquis's mansion.

Their husbands were officials in the same court, and as wives, they should have moved around more.

Jiang Yijing: "..."

Very good, I still remember that these people used to come for her son Xiao Jingzhan.

Now, they have changed their partners and come for Taotao...

Even if they can't be Jingzhan's wife, it's also good to be good friends with Jingzhan's wife, right?

"Sister-in-law, these people are so scary."

Feeling the enthusiasm of these ladies, Xiao Miluo stuck close to Zhu Xuntao,

and kept thanking in her heart that these people were finally not coming for her.

Before Xiao Jingzhan got married, Xiao Miluo remembered that whenever she went out and met other girls,

it was always like today.

Those sisters were very enthusiastic about her, and then asked her in a roundabout way about some of her eldest brother's preferences.

It's true that Sima Zhao's intentions are known to everyone.

For this reason, Xiao Miluo, who loved to join in the fun, was reluctant to go out for a while,

because those young ladies who loved to surround her were not coming for her at all, but just wanted to use her to get close to her eldest brother.

What Xiao Miluo didn't expect was that her elder brother had been married for many months, and

these people were still as enthusiastic as before. What were they planning?

Thinking about it, Xiao Miluo's eyes showed a dangerous look.

The men of their Xiao family didn't have the habit of taking concubines.

If these people had some bad ideas and wanted to destroy the relationship between her brother and sister-in-law,

then don't blame her for being ruthless and taking action to deal with these shameless vixens!

"Don't worry, they are not coming for your elder brother."

Zhu Xuntao patted Xiao Miluo's hand comfortingly.

Xiao Jingzhan is indeed very charming, but the position of the Crown Prince's Consort has already been taken.

The position of a concubine next to him is not very attractive to these young ladies from official families.

Even concubines, except for the concubines of the royal family, were still cherished. In the eyes of these young ladies, other concubines were no different from slaves. They

had this self-respect and self-love.

"That's more or less."

As long as these people were not here to harm her sister-in-law, she didn't care what they were thinking.

"Mom, I'm hungry."

Xiao Chenliang was small and impatient. He was held and stood for a long time, but couldn't move. Naturally, the little guy was unhappy.

Zhu Xuntao touched Xiao Chenliang's slightly bulging belly with a smile: "Are you really hungry?"

Children sometimes can't tell whether they are hungry or full. At

this moment, Xiao Chenliang was just impatient and wanted to do something, so he said he was hungry.

"Mom, hold me..."

When children are unhappy, they tend to look for the people they are most familiar with and like the most to comfort their emotions.

Hearing the chattering of those officials' wives, Xiao Chenliang's eyebrows wrinkled like caterpillars and his mouth was curled up high.

Seeing Xiao Chenliang like this, Zhu Xuntao had no choice but to take the job:

"Regarding the banquet, I hope all the ladies will give my mother some time to consider and plan."

"Moreover, today is the day to pay respects to the noble, so please don't delay your serious business."

"It would be bad if the noble is kept waiting." "

When the date of the banquet is set, the mansion will send people to deliver the invitations to each mansion. I hope the ladies will wait for a while."

"Yes, yes, yes, we are all confused."

Seeing that Zhu Xuntao was willing to take the call, it was also a clear answer, and the ladies were finally willing to stop,

"Then Madam Hou, you must remember that after you have agreed, you must not forget us... us..."

If possible, it would be great if the Yongjing Marquis's Mansion only invited our own family.

It's a pity that everyone wants such a good thing, but they can't say it, and they can't do it.

"Very good, very good, remember to call us."

"You are worthy of being the Crown Prince's Consort praised by the Emperor. You handled this matter openly and spoke straightforwardly. You are indeed someone who can do great things."

In the situation just now, most women would be like their daughters,

quietly standing aside, not suitable to interrupt, and there is no way to interrupt.

Unlike Zhu Xuntao, the Crown Prince's Consort, not only has a high status and position, but also has enough courage.

In that situation, only someone like Zhu Xuntao has the ability to make a decision.

"Did you all hear what Taotao said?"

"Greetings to the noble first, as for other matters, we can always discuss them."

Jiang Yijing was also annoyed by being pestered.

When choosing a good wife for Xiao Jingzhan, Jiang Yijing was not bothered to hold a flower viewing party to choose a daughter-in-law.

She would first find out in private which family had a good daughter, and then get to know the other party's mother.

Jiang Yijing was not used to the idea of ​​gathering a bunch of young girls together and then slowly selecting them . She always felt that these girls were being treated lightly.

Therefore, she had never done anything like selecting a daughter-in-law. Now that she was extremely satisfied with Zhu Xuntao, she

was still holding a flower-viewing banquet. Jiang Yijing was really annoyed.

When it came to these things, Jiang Yijing neither liked nor was she good at them.

Seeing that Zhu Xuntao was willing to take the lead on her behalf, Jiang Yijing was greatly relieved.

So without Zhu Xuntao knowing anything, she actually agreed to the first flower-viewing banquet at the Yongjing Marquis' Mansion on behalf of Jiang Yijing. After

knowing the inside story, Zhu Xuntao: "..."

Countless ellipsis marks floated over Zhu Xuntao's head and then dominated the screen! Zhu Xuntao

, who did this unintentionally, comforted herself that she was too naive in the past.

After waking up, she was content to be her own female supporting role and background board, thinking about retirement every day,

so she never cared about the specific situation of Yongjing Marquis's Mansion.

Look, the pit she dug can only jump into by herself...

Zhu Xuntao was speechless when she returned to the carriage after paying New Year's greetings to the nobles in the palace. Madam Sun, who was late and ranked behind Yongjing Marquis's Mansion, was even more speechless than Zhu Xuntao.

Madam Sun was not surprised to see a group of people in front of her when she just entered the palace.

After all, it was like this every time in the past.

Originally, Madam Sun was more or less expecting something different this year.
