Zhao Yunzhu keenly realized that the child was probably afraid that they would not want her.
"Then it would be nice if Mo Niang could go along with us today to see the world."
"Really?" Mo Niang was overjoyed, her face full of disbelief. "Your servant thanks Concubine Yun!"
"Mo Niang, you must stay beside me and not run around. Remember?"
"Yes, I'll take note of it."
…
The carriage stopped in front of the Wang family's gate. The carriages that came to the Wang family for the banquet today were parked in front of the Wang family's gate.
Most of the guests who came to the Wang family for the banquet today were dignitaries in the city. Anyone with some reputation in the city came to the banquet.
Even though Lord Wang and King An were not in the city today, there were still many guests coming to the Wang family's banquet.
When everyone saw the carriage coming from Prince An's mansion, they stopped and saluted respectfully.
Mrs. Wang and her daughter Wang Min greeted them at the door.
"Concubine Yun."
“…”
"Madam Wang and Miss Wang, there's no need to be so polite." Zhao Yunzhu gave them a false helping hand, took a box from the hand of the maid Linglong behind her, and personally handed it to Miss Wang. "This is a coming-of-age gift for Miss Wang. Please don't be offended."
When Wang Min saw Zhao Yunzhu, for some reason, he felt a little fear in his heart.
"Min'er, why don't you thank Concubine Yun quickly."
Seeing her daughter standing there in a daze, Mrs. Wang pushed her and scolded her softly.
Wang Min hurriedly came to her senses and took it respectfully with both hands, "Thank you, Concubine Yun."
"I'm sorry to have let Concubine Yun spend so much money." Mrs. Wang smiled and welcomed Zhao Yunzhu into the house.
Zhao Yunzhu smiled faintly and said, "No need to be so polite."
Wang Min looked at the backs of her mother and Concubine Yun as they left.
He clenched the box tightly in his hands, and his eyes showed a bit of ruthlessness.
The next second, when she opened the box, she saw a red gold pearl hairpin inside.
His face suddenly fell.
This pearl hairpin is a piece of jewelry from Deyue Tower in the city. Although it is a new style this year, it is a common item. Almost every wealthy family in the city has one.
Concubine Yun sent something like this? Was it to let her know her identity?
She held the red gold pearl hairpin tightly in her hand, narrowed her eyes, sneered, and then pinned the hairpin in the most conspicuous place in her bun.
…
Mrs. Wang took Zhao Yunzhu to the banquet room.
When everyone saw Zhao Yunzhu, they all stood up and saluted.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Zhao Yunzhu told everyone not to be polite and just sit down and chat.
Because of her most honorable status, she was naturally welcomed to the main seat, and the ladies all gathered around her to chat and laugh.
Although Zhao Yunzhu was a little tired of dealing with it, she was still concerned about the situation and didn't want others to say that she was aloof.
Just as the ladies were talking to Zhao Yunzhu, the protagonist of today's Wang family banquet, Miss Wang, slowly arrived.
She was wearing a light pink brocade dress with double-sided orchids embroidered with red gold silk thread, which made her look dignified and noble.
His eyes slowly moved upwards along the clothes on his body.
When everyone saw Miss Wang's hair full of luxurious pearl hairpins, their eyes lit up, but the next second, they saw several pearl hairpins from Deyue Tower.
At such a grand coming-of-age banquet for Miss Wang, she actually bought a pearl hairpin that almost everyone in Deyue Tower has?
Lord Wang holds the highest official position in the city. How could these Wang family members not understand this?
Miss Wang doesn’t understand either?
Everyone looked at each other suspiciously.
Zhao Yunzhu recognized it at a glance. The pearl hairpin on Wang Min's bun was the one she had just given her today.
Why are you in such a hurry to wear it?
Zhao Yunzhu was still suspicious the moment before, but the next second she keenly noticed something was wrong at the banquet.
The strange expressions on the faces of the women made her realize clearly that there might be other reasons behind this matter that she was not aware of.
Just as she was feeling doubtful, Miss Wang calmly stepped forward and bowed to her. "I thank Concubine Yun for this generous gift. I like it very much."
She raised the corners of her lips with a look of joy, and stroked the red gold pearl hairpin on her bun.
How could the ladies watching on the side not understand?
They all lowered their eyes and looked for things to do.
The eldest daughter of the Wang family clearly wanted to use them to embarrass Concubine Yun today. No one wanted to offend her, so they could only pretend that they didn't notice anything unusual.
"I didn't understand, so I sent someone to the Moon Tower to pick out the best. Since Miss Wang likes it, I am relieved."
Zhao Yunzhu raised her hand to signal Wang Min to stand and speak. "If Miss Wang doesn't like it, feel free to send someone to Yuelou to summon her. After all, I'm not Miss Wang's pet, so I don't know what she likes."
With just a few words, he successfully extricated himself from it.
Wang Min's face looked a little ugly.
Mrs. Wang understood her daughter's little thoughts, but what could she say now?
"What are you still standing there for? Why don't you thank Concubine Yun properly?"
Mrs. Wang stood up and walked to her daughter, pushing her stunned daughter.
"Thank you, Concubine Yun."
Wang Min finally came to her senses after being pushed by her mother.
"Now that you have met all the ladies and paid your respects, you should go and play at the table with your little girls. We would find you an eyesore if you stayed here." Mrs. Wang sent her daughter away in a joking tone.
Everyone agreed, "Yes, let's go over there quickly."
Miss Wang bowed again to Concubine Yun, and then bowed to everyone else before leaving.
"Concubine Yun, this child is ignorant. Please don't be angry with her. After all, she just came of age today."
Madam Wang sat down next to Zhao Yunzhu and spoke to her in a low voice with an apologetic look on her face.
