Chapter 312 Pei Family Invitation
Seeing that she was shy, Song Ci knew that this matter should not be rushed. It would be better to wait for her brother to come back after the exam, and then they would know whether it was suitable after they met.
She was also very excited after shaving her head. Why was she chatting about these things with the girl for no reason?
Qiao Yu wiped her mouth with a handkerchief. Coughing made the corners of her eyes red. Her pupils were black with a hint of water. Her eyes were sparkling, her lips were red and her teeth were white. She was as dazzling as a peony bud about to bloom.
Noticing that Song Ci was staring at him, Qiao Yu touched his face with one hand and said, "Sister, is there something on my face? Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Look at how beautiful my sister is. She is so pretty and proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. I think she will definitely find a good husband in the future."
Qiao Yu was shy, but she nodded in agreement. Song Ci had simply hit a nerve. Every young girl yearns for love, hoping to find a good man and live a harmonious life together.
Qiao Yu is a very traditional person, so naturally he has such expectations.
"I also hope that my sister can find a good husband. I saw that day that the young master of the Pei family seemed to treat my sister differently."
Speaking of Pei Ji, Song Ci fortunately admitted frankly that the other party was Qiao Yu, not Qiao Yun.
After hearing her words, Qiao Yu was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "I said my eyes were not wrong. That man was extremely gentle to me. When I appeared, there was nothing else in his eyes. I think he is an extremely good man."
Her eyes grew more serious. "When choosing a man, you shouldn't just consider his family background and talent. You should also consider whether he truly loves you. Otherwise, no matter how talented or well-born he is, it's useless. Sooner or later, it will drain your energy."
It was just that Qiao Yu was concerned about himself, so Song Ci listened carefully.
But after getting along with each other, she still had a clear understanding of Pei Ji. She knew what kind of person he was and where his bottom line was.
Moreover, she touched the bracelet on her wrist, and the cold touch made her mind clearer.
Even after getting married, if the other party changes or treats her badly, she will leave. She can't be trapped in unhappiness for the rest of her life, which is a waste of time.
She had a plan in mind and was very clear-headed, so she chatted more enthusiastically with Qiao Yu.
When it comes to jewelry, the jewelry in Beijing is among the best. The latest styles and the latest materials almost all come from Beijing first, because there are so many nobles in Beijing.
"Come to think of it, when I came here this time, I also wanted to see how the hairpins in Beijing are different from those in our place." Qiao Yu said seriously.
Song Ci knew that the Qiao family had a wide variety of businesses, but the most profitable was selling jewelry and ready-made clothes. Seeing them come this time, she also wanted to see and hear more.
Song Ci took advantage of the situation and suggested that they go out for a walk together to see the differences in Beijing.
Qiao Yu readily agreed and called Qiao Suo.
When the three of them reached the door, they saw Qiao Yun. She looked them over before asking, "Are you going out?"
Song Ci didn't say anything. Qiao Yu looked down on Qiao Yun's attitude. Qiao Suo said unhappily, "So what if it is so?"
"I'm going out too. We've run out of rouge and powder in the house." She said bluntly, indicating that she would follow.
A few people thought that it was fine for her to follow them, so they just let her go.
After getting on the carriage, the three of them chatted and laughed. The girls talked about nothing but delicious food, fun things, jewelry, clothes, etc. Qiao Yun was distracted the whole time. Song Ci looked at her strangely and became secretly alert.
When we arrived at the jewelry shop, the owner greeted us warmly and introduced the latest styles.
"Boss, do you have any new jewelry? Take it out and let our wife see it."
As she was watching, someone suddenly came to the door. Song Ci turned around and happened to meet her eyes. It was Shao Rong, also known as Mrs. Pei.
The servants around her came one after another. She glanced at Song Ci and suddenly walked towards them with an unprecedented gentle look.
Qiao Suo was confused. Qiao Yu, who was standing beside her, saw that Song Ci looked unhappy and quickly realized that the lady in front of him might not have a good relationship with his cousin Song. He took a step forward and stood in front of her.
Shao Rong didn't even glance at the others, she just smiled and said, "What a coincidence, Miss Song, we meet again."
Song Ci also smiled without any flaws, as if the two of them had never had any grudges against each other.
"Mrs. Pei."
Seeing that the other party was not angry at all and had a calm expression, Shao Rong became more determined in her heart. A woman like this must not marry Pei Ji. Pei Ji is a smiling tiger. Don't be fooled by his gentlemanly appearance. He has a black heart.
This Miss Song is even more cunning. It is not a good thing for two such people to join forces.
She suddenly winked at the person next to her, and that person took out an invitation and handed it to her.
Song Ci didn't rush to take it, but just took a look. Just as he was about to ask, Qiao Yun next to him took it away.
"What is this?"
Seeing the invitation was taken, the nanny felt that her mission was accomplished and explained, "There will be a flower viewing banquet in a few days. My wife has invited the young ladies in Beijing to be guests. Miss Song happened to meet her, so she invited Miss Song to join the fun."
Flower viewing banquet? Qiao Yun was ecstatic.
As soon as she heard the name Mrs. Pei, she knew that this person must be Pei Ji's stepmother. Flower viewing banquets are usually for men and women to meet each other, which means that Pei Ji is not engaged yet.
"Thank you for the invitation, Madam. We will definitely go when the time comes." Her smile was very bright, almost flattering.
Shao Rong glanced at her and smiled a little more, "Then it's settled." After that, she left with her men in a grand manner.
Qiao Yun was still carefully examining the invitation in his hand. As he got closer, he could even smell a faint scent of incense. As expected of the Pei family, such an invitation had so many secrets.
Suddenly, a pair of white jade-like hands snatched the invitation away. Qiao Yun said, "What are you taking? I'm still looking at it."
Qiao Yun glared at her angrily, "How dare you say that? Who allowed you to make the decision on your own and agree to help Cousin Song? Who told you that we were going to attend the flower viewing banquet? Qiao Yun, do you still have any shame?"
"What's wrong with attending the flower viewing banquet? How can you be shameless? Cousin Song hasn't said anything yet, why are you yelling, Qiao Suo? I've tolerated you for a long time, who do you think you are?"
Seeing many people in the store looking at him, Qiao Yu coughed and reminded them, "Stop making noise! It's not nice to yell like that in public."
"It's Qiao Suo, with her rough voice and loud voice. If you want to blame someone, blame her. Let me tell you, Madam Pei just now wanted to invite us all to go together. If you don't want to go, just give me the invitation."
After she finished speaking, she reached out to grab it.
Song Ci had been silent the entire time, but suddenly she said in a cold voice, "Cousin Qiao Suo, give me the invitation."
Qiao Suo hurriedly handed it over and dodged Qiao Yun's hand.
