Chapter 251 The Princess Won't Like You
Seeing her daughter looking frightened, Xu's mother smiled and tapped her nose with her hand, saying, "Don't worry. I'm telling you that you and Jinyu are naturally good in my eyes, but other people's daughters are not bad either! Don't worry, the Princess probably won't like you." As for Jinyu, it
was even more impossible.
Of course, Xu's mother didn't plan to take Xu Jinyu to the appointment.
There was another point that Xu's mother didn't say.
Although the Princess lived in Jinling for a long time, she must know what the emperor's attitude was towards the Duke of Cheng's Mansion. Under such circumstances, she couldn't let her nephew, whom she had raised, marry the lady of the Duke of Cheng's Mansion.
The Princess would definitely choose a woman who was outstanding in both status and appearance for her nephew, and who could guarantee that she could help him in the officialdom after marriage.
This point is the most important, and the young lady of the Duke of Cheng's Mansion cannot meet this prerequisite.
"Mother, is there such a person as you? You make me sound bad."
Xu's mother said honestly: "You are not bad. In mother's eyes, you are the best. But in the eyes of others, it may not be the case."
Xu Muhua: She really couldn't refute this.
"So you can rest assured, the eldest princess will not like you!"
Xu Muhua: You are undoubtedly my biological mother! Only my biological mother would say that!
But she was not so worried after hearing it.
Since she can't refuse, then be prepared.
Xu Jinyu will not participate. In her current state, it is easy for her to provoke dirty things when she goes out. If she runs into them again, it will be really difficult.
Xu Jinyu's personality is quiet and introverted, and she has no interest in attending banquets.
When Xu's mother mentioned this, she refused without waiting for her explanation, looking as if she couldn't wait to go. It
was so funny to see Xu's mother.
Other daughters are keen to participate in various gatherings held by various noble families, trying to stand out. Why is it the opposite for her two daughters, avoiding each other?
How can they talk about marriage in the future?
Xu's mother was a little worried.
If she knew that Xu Muhua had never thought about getting married, she would be terrified.
The eldest princess is back, and she wants to hold a flower viewing banquet!
This news spread throughout the capital at the fastest speed, and then the business of the ready-made clothing shops in the capital became popular!
Because the date of the eldest princess's flower viewing banquet was very close, there was no time to buy fabrics and make them slowly, so they could only buy ready-made new clothes.
No matter what the eldest princess's purpose was, those who had daughters or sons of similar age in the mansion were all eager to dress up their children. They must show up well at the eldest princess's flower viewing banquet!
Xu's mother was no exception.
Xu Muhua is now fourteen years old and has reached the age where she can meet someone. If there is a suitable one, they can discuss and decide on it first, and then they can start preparing for the marriage when they reach the age of marriage! So she had the same idea.
As a result, when she dragged Xu Muhua to the largest ready-made clothing shop on Zhuque Street, she was almost scared by the crowded people inside!
It looks like the vegetable market on West Street!
Xu Muhua was also startled, and immediately grabbed her mother's hand, with a look of fear on her face, "Mom, forget it, let's go, there are too many people!"
After going in and out, her figure, which didn't have much curve to begin with, would probably become even flatter!
Look, the mother and daughter who just came out, their hair is messy, and the hairpins are loosely inserted in the hair, as if they are in danger of falling off at any time.
Xu's mother was also a little hesitant, "Why don't we go to another one?"
It is absolutely impossible to attend the flower viewing banquet without new clothes!
"Mom, why don't you forget it, didn't you just cut new clothes last month. There is no need to buy new ones."
It hasn't been long since then, and the clothes are still new!
"That won't do! The new dress I cut a month ago is already out of date! If you wear it to attend the princess' flower viewing party, you will be laughed at!"
Xu Muhua was shocked.
It's only been a short time, and it's already out of date? Do you have to be so exaggerated?
Fashion trends in modern society don't update so quickly, right?
"Then let's wait and see, there are too many people here!"
She was worried that there would be a stampede in the next second!
What you fear will come true. Just as Xu Muhua was thinking this, she saw a woman with one hand full, and the maid following behind her did the same. She raised her foot and stepped over the threshold with a smile on her face - but there were too many people coming in and out, and she didn't know who squeezed her, causing her body to tilt, and her foot that was supposed to step over the threshold hit the threshold!
Her body could no longer stabilize. Her upper body had already moved forward inertialy, but her lower body was still behind the threshold. The things in her hands instantly fell to the ground... She widened her eyes and threw herself forward uncontrollably...
If she fell at this moment, the consequences would be serious!
Xu Muhua was startled, and her actions were faster than her brain. She rushed over with a big step and firmly supported the lady who was about to fall!
But even so, the two of them were still squeezed and stumbled by the crowd.
Fortunately, Wu'er reacted quickly, followed Xu Muhua closely, stood behind her and supported their bodies steadily.
The lady was still in shock, and didn't even care about the things on the ground that were trampled by the crowded people. She patted her chest vigorously to calm her pounding heart.
Xu Muhua frowned and gave Wu'er a look. Wu'er immediately put her hands on her hips and rushed in without caring about anything. She forcibly rushed out a wide path in the crowded crowd!
Although she caused a lot of complaints because she bumped into many people in such a rush, Wu'er didn't care!
She rushed to the counter, put one hand on her hips, and slapped the counter with the other hand, and the whole counter shook!
Wu Er scolded him harshly: "You were so poor in your previous life, you only cared about making money, and you didn't even bother to arrange personal counseling for so many people. If something happens, can your shabby store afford the compensation? You are such a jerk!"
The shopkeeper and the clerk were stunned, and when they came to their senses, they got angry.
Especially the shopkeeper, when had he ever been so angry before!
He rolled up his sleeves and was ready to scold back, but he didn't have the chance!
Wu Er fired another barrage of criticism, "Why, you're still not convinced? I think you deserve a slap on your left cheek, a slap on your right cheek, a head on your head, and a melon on your neck, otherwise how could you do such a thing that would ruin your karma for eight lifetimes? Look at how many people are here, it's so crowded, if someone accidentally falls, they will be trampled to death by so many people!"
"If someone is trampled to death, can you afford to pay for it with your shabby store? I think your ancestors will have to pay for it!"
