As more and more guests came into the garden, many people followed Princess Rui and Madam Qin, and finally they found an open pavilion to sit down and talk.
The wife of the Minister of Personnel Fu Heng, Mrs. Kang, also participated with her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Hong.
However, the only people who were familiar with Princess Rui were ladies from aristocratic families. Kang had no say in the conversation, let alone Hong. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law could only listen to the lively conversation of the people above with smiles on their faces.
At this moment, a servant from the Fu family gestured outside, signaling Hong to go out.
Hong didn't understand what was going on, so she whispered something to Kang and quietly slipped out of the pavilion.
As soon as she went out, she saw her two sisters-in-law with red eyes from crying, and she was shocked.
"What's going on?" Mrs. Hong turned around and questioned the two maids, "How did you serve the young lady?"
The sisters' personal maids fell to their knees in fear.
One of them hurriedly explained, "Grandma, it's not that the servants didn't serve you well. The two girls... the two girls were bullied."
As she spoke, her voice became choked.
"Who is so bold as to bully the girl from our Fu family?"
"I don't recognize him, I don't know whose family he is from."
Mrs. Hong couldn't help but murmur inwardly, "Didn't they say that only women would come to the flower viewing banquet? Who would be so tactless as to bring their son along?"
The sounds of crying and talking outside soon attracted the attention of some people in the pavilion.
Princess Rui saw some people sitting by the side looking out, so she said, "We haven't seen each other for a long time, and we were just chatting about family matters, and I guess everyone is tired of listening.
"Mr. Jiang's garden is really well maintained. It would be wonderful to go out and enjoy the flowers."
Princess Rui's words not only showed that she knew Mr. Jiang, but also seemed to want to drive him away.
She has not liked crowds in recent years and rarely goes out to meet other people. Apart from her younger sister, Mrs. Qin, the only people she can talk to are a few old friends.
So even though so many people were sitting down there quietly without saying a word, he still felt a little uneasy watching them.
But a young woman sitting at the edge quickly said, "To answer your Majesty, we have just walked around the garden, and it is indeed breathtakingly beautiful.
"But everyone is looking outside right now because some girl has been bullied and is crying outside the pavilion."
What she said was actually extremely tactless. Not only did she fail to understand what Princess Rui meant, but she was also destined to offend the Kang family.
The only benefit was to those who turned their heads and watched the excitement.
But these people didn't feel any gratitude towards her at all. Instead, they laughed at her in their hearts for being so stupid.
When Kang heard that a girl was bullied and crying outside, her heart trembled. Hong had just said that she was going out for a while, and she hasn't come back yet. Could it be her own daughter?
Kang was a little impatient and wanted to go out to take a look, but everyone's attention was on this matter at the moment, and it would be too easy to attract attention if he suddenly stood up.
Just as Kang was peeking out, trying to figure out whose daughter it was, Princess Rui said, "Quickly call them in and ask them. If they've really been bullied, I'll take care of them."
The maidservant beside Princess Rui went out immediately and brought the person in quickly.
Seeing that the people brought in were indeed her daughter-in-law Hong and her two daughters Fu Rongqi and Fu Rongyue, Kang stood up immediately.
Both daughters had red eyes from crying, which made Kang very distressed.
Princess Rui raised her hand, beckoned the two girls to her side, pulled out a handkerchief and gently wiped the tears from their faces.
"What beautiful little girls! It would be ugly if their faces were all red from crying."
Fu Rongqi was older and only held the title of Princess of Rui. She was a little frightened when she was suddenly called to her side, and she burst into tears when she heard this.
This made the atmosphere in the room much more relaxed, and some people couldn't help but cover their mouths and chuckle.
Mrs. Kang anxiously stepped forward and said to her two daughters, "Don't be afraid. If anyone bullies you, tell the princess. She will take care of it for you."
Fu Rongyue sobbed as she told him what had just happened. The atmosphere in the room became inexplicably awkward.
Judging from what the little girl just said, it is hard to say who is right or wrong.
After all, those who were able to come here to attend the flower viewing banquet today all had certain status in their families. They rashly accused each other without clarifying the situation. The reason they didn't fight on the spot was probably because the other party gave them face because they were girls.
Because Fu Rongyue said that the other party brought his sister with him, Mrs. Qin didn't think of Qin Hexuan at all.
She wondered in her heart, could it be that someone else had brought their son to the flower viewing party?
Lady Lu, the wife of the Marquis of Wu'an, who had been sitting on the other side of the Princess Rui, broke the silence in the pavilion and said with a smile, "Fortunately, there are two little girls here. If both sides were boys, they would have been fighting by now."
After hearing this, Princess Rui and the people chatting with her smiled knowingly.
Seeing the people below looking confused, Madam Lu continued to explain with a smile, "You don't know, I'm talking about the childhood of my Lord Marquis and Marquis Xuanping."
Speaking of these two marquises who have such a good relationship that they can wear the same pants, everyone present naturally knows them, but they just don’t know what the purpose of not mentioning them is.
But then Madam Lu said, "You don't know, even though they are as close as brothers now.
“In fact, when we were young, we would fight fiercely over any disagreement.
