Chapter 226 Why Can’t You Wait
Jiang Yueyao subconsciously looked at her mother.
Bai Jinyu smiled at the old lady and said, "I know she's pretty and you like her, but there's no need to give her such an expensive gift, right?"
"My love is priceless, so if you like it, I'll give it to you. Good girl, wear it." The old lady looked at Jiang Yueyao with eyes full of love.
Jiang Yueyao bowed slightly: "Thank you, old lady."
After some greetings, Jiang Yueyao and Bai Jinyu took their seats.
After sitting down, she looked up to find Lu Sui, but he was no longer there.
After sitting in the hall for a while, the banquet was almost ready, so the old lady led everyone out.
The weather was a bit hot in June, so the banquet was held on the waterside pavilion in front of the stage.
There is a pergola on the waterside pavilion, and lotus flowers are blooming underneath. When the wind blows, the water ripples, and it feels a bit cool.
I know many of the girls who came today, but I’m not familiar with them.
Meng Zhiye got married in August and couldn't go out for the past two months. Meng Zhixia didn't know why, but she was so lively and restless, but now she didn't even go out.
Jiang Yueyao sat for a while, drank tea and had some snacks. There was singing on the stage. She was not interested in opera, so she told her mother and took Jinzi to visit the vineyard across the street.
The vineyard in Lu Mansion is really famous.
Every year there is a bumper grape harvest, and every wealthy family that has good relations with the grapes can receive a basket of grapes.
Coming down from the waterside pavilion, Jiang Yueyao went over there with the gold.
The sun wasn't too strong, and the road was lined with green trees, making it quite relaxing.
Jinzi followed Jiang Yueyao and kept talking to her.
"Although they are both Duke's Mansions, I still think ours is better."
Jiang Yueyao smiled, then reached out and handed her a few candies: "Someone just gave them to me. Do you want to eat them?"
"Eat." Jinzi reached out and took one, peeled it and put it in his mouth.
Jiang Yueyao stuffed the remaining few into her hands and said, "Don't eat too much, or you'll get rotten teeth."
"Yeah I got it girl."
Before the two of them reached the vineyard, Jinzi suddenly raised his hand and pointed across: "Girl, the Regent."
Jiang Yueyao looked in the direction of her finger, and sure enough, she saw Lu Sui standing under the willow tree opposite. He was wearing a black brocade robe embroidered with gold thread. He was tall, handsome, and very eye-catching.
Seeing her looking at him, he waved at her and pointed to the yard behind him.
Jiang Yueyao understood instantly.
Because she said that she wanted to sit in his yard during the banquet today.
She had almost forgotten it, but she didn't expect that he still remembered it.
So he smiled, took the gold and walked onto a small bridge and passed through it.
Lu Sui walked to the bridge to meet her, and then the two of them went into the yard together.
Qingxuan was guarding the gate of the yard, and Jinzi was peeling candy wrappers on a stone block nearby.
She was about to put the candy in her mouth when a cold voice came from above her head: "Your teeth are in good condition!"
Jinzi held the candy in her mouth and looked up at him.
Puffy cheeks.
She met Qingxuan's gaze and moved her mouth: "None of your business!"
Qingxuan was not angry. He glanced at her lightly, retracted his gaze, and continued to look straight ahead.
Even if you scold him, he won't talk back.
Jinzi found it extremely boring.
If this happened in the Shen family's secret guard camp, she would definitely be beaten if she dared to curse like this.
But she was never afraid!
And she is always excited every time, she likes to fight, with both of them hitting each other, making the sand and rocks fly and the chickens and dogs riot, it feels so good!
But since returning to Beijing, the master has not allowed them to cause trouble in the mansion.
Jin Zi has been itching to do something for a long time.
She wanted to provoke the head of the Regent's secret guards, make him dislike her, and then she could pounce on him and fight him, but he ignored her.
Jinzi was a little depressed.
She bent down, picked up a small stone and threw it at Qingxuan.
"Hey, are you mute?"
Qingxuan glanced at the small stone thrown on his body, shook his arm gently, and after the stone fell, he glanced at Jinzi sideways.
"Are you free?"
"I'm so idle." Jin Zi stared blankly ahead. "Since returning to Beijing, I can't even ride a horse freely, let alone go out to hunt."
After she finished speaking, she asked Qingxuan, "Have you ever been to Mobei?"
Qingxuan shook his head: "No!"
"That's a shame. The vast Mobei grasslands stretch as far as the eye can see. Do you know how joyful it is to ride a horse across them?" Jinzi's eyes suddenly lit up, his expression beaming. "There are countless rabbits and roe deer there. There's barbecue in the camp every day, and with spicy sauce, it's just so delicious."
Qingxuan looked at her and could feel the happiness in her eyes when she said this.
It emanated from the bottom of my heart, joyful and relaxed.
Subconsciously, he asked aloud: "Don't you like the capital?"
"It's not that I don't like it. I'll be wherever the master is. I just think the capital is too small and not as vast as Mobei."
"But the capital has distinct four seasons, and there are no sandstorms or snowstorms. I ate a lot of delicious food at Qianweilou with the girl." Jinzi became happy again. "Each has its own advantages, and I like them all."
She seemed particularly easily satisfied.
The corners of Qingxuan's lips twitched slightly, and he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't open his mouth.
At this moment, in the pavilion in the yard, Jiang Yueyao was looking at the man sitting opposite her who was peeling grapes for her.
"Today is your mother's birthday party. As the master, why don't you go and help?"
Lu Sui placed the peeled grapes in front of her, then looked up at her.
"Everyone who should have come has come, and everything that should have been done has been done. With my elder and second brothers leading the way, I feel at ease."
Jiang Yueyao ate the grapes, which were very sweet and juicy.
She picked up one and handed it to Lu Sui's mouth.
"Here, try it, it's delicious."
Lu Sui looked at her, then opened his mouth and ate the grape.
After eating a few grapes, Jiang Yueyao suddenly remembered something.
She quickly stretched out her wrist in front of him, revealing the jadeite bracelet on her fair wrist.
"Your mother gave it to me."
Lu Sui took a look and smiled gently: "Well, mother likes you very much."
"Isn't it very valuable? It looks like it has great water quality."
Lu Sui put the last peeled grape into the plate in front of her, then wiped his hands with a handkerchief.
Only then did he look at Jiang Yueyao and speak.
"This bracelet was given to my mother by my grandmother."
“…”
"I thought she had already given it to her eldest or second sister-in-law, but I didn't expect she still kept it."
"...Then I can't have it."
"Why?" Lu Sui's face darkened. "Don't you want to marry me?"
Seeing his face turn fierce in an instant, Jiang Yueyao grabbed a grape and threw it at him.
"If you're any more mean, I won't marry you!"
When Lu Sui heard this, his expression relaxed considerably.
He stood up and sat beside her, pulling her into his arms.
"Once your father agrees, I will ask the official matchmaker to come and propose marriage."
As he spoke, he buried his face in Jiang Yueyao's neck and took a deep breath.
Then he spoke slowly.
"Yaoyao, I can't wait."
Jiang Yueyao's face turned red.
But he still deliberately misinterpreted his meaning.
"What's wrong with you? What's wrong? Why can't you wait?"
