Chapter 93: Lake Party
"That shouldn't be the case, Fuxiang, are you sure everyone has been called over?"
Chu Lange turned her head and glanced at her little maid.
The maid replied immediately, "Princess, I have arranged for someone to notify everyone to come, but we cannot rule out the possibility that some people don't know or don't want to come."
"That's true."
Chu Lange nodded gently, then looked at Jiang Wanrong and continued, "Sister Wanrong, please take a good look at these first. If you still haven't found that noble man, I will help you find a solution."
"Wanrong thanks the princess."
Jiang Wanrong began to look at these palace maids carefully, and even asked about their origins, which palace they were in, what they did, etc. She also asked Chu Lange to arrange for someone to take notes, preparing to study them carefully when she returned.
Jiang Wanrong also paid special attention to the little palace maid who she had not seen when she entered the palace.
Before leaving, she suddenly showed an expression of sudden enlightenment:
"By the way, Princess, I suddenly remembered the maid we met when we entered the palace. She seemed to have a red mole between her eyebrows.
Of all the people, I was most impressed by her. I wonder if Wanrong could ask the princess for a favor and let me take the little maid home."
Chu Lange carefully recalled the appearance of the little palace maid and nodded.
"Oh, that's right. She didn't come after finishing her work. I will ask Yuan Ye to personally send her to Jiang's house for you later!"
"Wanrong thanks Her Royal Highness the Princess!"

That afternoon.
Jiang Youning invited Chu Lange and Xiao Wukong to a big meal at the tavern and even took out his own collection of spicy noodles to treat them.
"Sister, I don't want to study. I want to play with you."
For the first time, Little Wukong showed his resistance to a table full of food. He sat next to Jiang Youning with tears in his eyes, pulling her sleeves and shaking them, looking extremely pitiful.
"It's no use crying. The Empress is a nobody. She arranged a teacher for you. That's an honor that no one else can even ask for. You must learn from her!"
Without hesitation, Jiang Youning stuffed an Orleans-flavored chicken wing into Little Monkey's mouth.
"Look at how you usually talk. You can't even use a proper idiom correctly. If you can read more books and learn more knowledge, you will be able to curse people differently in the future and make others speechless. How great is that?"
Little Goku thought about it for a while, and actually felt that what Jiang Youning said made sense.
"That's right. Then I must ask the future master for advice."
Having said that, the chicken wings seemed to be quite delicious, a taste he had never tasted before.
Little Wukong smacked his lips, and was successfully distracted by the delicious food once again.
Aside.
Jiang Wanrong couldn't help but twitching the corners of her mouth.
These two really are one who dares to say it and the other who dares to believe it.
She didn't know why, but she always had a bad feeling.

The next morning.
Jiang Youning got up and lay down bored. He was flipping through a picture book called The Romantic Princess Running Away with the Baby that he bought two days ago. He was complaining about it while being extremely excited.
"Tsk tsk tsk, the old tricks are really popular everywhere."
"Running with the ball, running with the ball, this is an incredible story."
Just when we were in high spirits, Chuntao came running over happily with an invitation.
"Miss, the Taifu family is going to hold a lake party tomorrow, and they have sent invitations to you and Miss Five!"
"Grandmaster's family? Are you familiar with me? Why did you invite me to the lake party?"
Jiang Youning couldn't bear to look away.
"Miss, this is great news. All the famous ladies and gentlemen in the city will go there." Chun Tao continued with a smile, "Also... the mandarin fish in Shabi Lake is very delicious. Didn't you always want to eat it? You can go fishing in the center of the lake."
"Shabi Lake? Stupid Lake? Which wicked person came up with such an ugly name?"
Jiang Youning couldn't help but complain, and Chuntao beside her immediately told her to shut up.
"Miss, please be careful with your words. You must not say such things outside."
"ah?"
"Miss, have you forgotten? Shabi Lake was named by His Majesty himself. As for its origin... Chuntao has forgotten."
"Oh, okay, I'll go!"
After complaining about Chu Wenzong in his heart, Jiang Youning nodded again when he thought of the taste of mandarin fish.
"By the way, Chuntao, go buy a fishing net for your young lady. Make sure it's a large one."
~~~
The next day.
Jiang Youning and Jiang Wanrong went out together in a carriage.
Little Wukong and Jiang Heng stood at the door, watching the carriage gradually disappear from their sight, and couldn't help but burst into tears.
Sometimes it is very easy to die happily. All you have to do is watch others live happily and happily while you suffer.
"Fourth brother, if I were a girl, would I not have to study?"
Little Wukong couldn't help but mutter.
Jiang Heng on the side nodded sadly.
"Yes, if we were girls, we wouldn't have to study in the Jiang family if we didn't want to."
In the State of Yu, both men and women could study, but women had more freedom.
"Then we..."
Little Wukong standing by couldn't think that much.
He seemed to have some clever idea and immediately pulled Jiang Heng away.
the other side.
The carriage soon arrived near Shabi Lake outside the city.
The boats and pleasure boats were parked in an orderly manner around the area, and many young ladies and gentlemen had already come.
"Kang Youning!!! Here!!!"
Chu Lange was quite interested in going out to play, so he came early in the morning.
Jiang Youning and Jiang Wanrong looked at each other and walked over side by side.
"I have seen the princess."
"Oh, no need to be polite! I asked Yuan Ye to get my pleasure boat here, and I'm taking you there now. I promise that no one will be as big as you today!"
Chu Langge impatiently pulled the two people onto the largest pleasure boat in the distance.
"By the way, where's Short Legs? He didn't come out to play today?"
"I forgot to tell you that your mother hired a teacher to teach him at home."
Jiang Youning smiled softly, and while standing at the bow looking around, his eyes swept to a place not far away, and his gaze couldn't help but pause.
"Sister, look quickly, am I dazzled? It seems that Third Brother is here too?"
"Where?"
Jiang Wanrong immediately looked in the direction Jiang Youning was looking, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
"It seems to be the third brother."
"During dinner yesterday, Third Brother said that he would never come to such a boring place, but I didn't expect him to sneak here with Zhao Yi.
As expected... a man's mouth is a lie."
