Yan Bao still didn't get to eat the egg yolk pastry made by Xu Zhimo that day.
Because Big Brother Shen bought her some pastries from the most delicious pastry shop in Beijing, including a portion of glutinous rice dumpling, which she loved very much, she forgave Big Brother Shen.
Ever since Xu Zhimo appeared in Taohuaxi this time.
The rumors that he was ugly and unworthy of Brother Shen were refuted.
Come to think of it, as long as people see Xu Zhimo's face, no one would say against their will that Xu Zhimo is ugly.
If she were ugly, there would be few good-looking people in the world.
When Big Brother Shen sent Xu Zhimo back, he told her something: "I sent someone to secretly check those portraits of yours. It turned out that it was the Second Young Lady who leaked them. Please keep an eye on her in the mansion."
Xu Zhimo was surprised. This was something she had not expected.
"Be patient and wait for me to marry you. When you get to the Shen family, no one will bully you." Brother Shen's eyes were gentle and distressed.
Xu Zhimo's face flushed. She didn't dare to look at Brother Shen in the eye. "I understand. Thank you for telling me. I'll wait for you to marry me."
This time, Brother Shen also got embarrassed.
The two looked at each other, feeling embarrassed and uneasy, their heartbeats quickened, and an ambiguous emotion surrounding them.
Seeing that Madam Xu's carriage had also returned, Brother Shen did not stay long. He glanced at Xu Zhimo, greeted Madam Xu, ignored Xu Zhirong's guilty expression, and rode away.
Xu Zhimo watched Brother Shen leave and then set her eyes on Xu Zhirong.
Xu Zhirong's scalp tingled when she looked at her.
In front of Mrs. Xu, he slapped Xu Zhirong in the face, making Mrs. Xu's face change in anger: "What are you doing?"
"So it was you who spread my ugly portrait. You can't stand seeing me doing well, so you slander me. That's all you can do. Be smarter next time and don't let anyone find out." Xu Zhimo warned: "If mother can't teach you, I don't mind teaching my sister how to behave."
Mrs. Xu was furious: "I'm still alive, I don't need it."
"Then teach him well, and don't just do bad things behind his back." Xu Zhimo threatened: "There won't be a next time, otherwise don't blame me for being rude."
Xu Zhirong covered her burning cheeks with tears in her eyes, feeling both unconvinced and unwilling to give up.
After Xu Zhimo left, Mrs. Xu looked at her daughter who had been beaten and sighed, "Did you do this?"
"Mom, why?" Xu Zhirong knew nothing about her mistakes.
Mrs. Xu was tired: "Okay, go back and reflect on yourself. Instead of staring at her, you should spend more time and effort to find a good husband."
Xu Zhirong sneered: "With our Xu family's status, who would be interested? Who can compare with the Shen family?"
"That's enough, give up. Little Master Shen is marrying that bitch, not you. You will never marry into the Shen family in your lifetime." Madam Xu was very disappointed. "Wait until the spring competition. Mother will look for someone. Even if she can't compare to Little Master Shen, she must be close. My daughter cannot be worse than that bitch."
Thinking of the spring competition, Xu Zhirong narrowed her eyes.
The Spring Games are held every three years in spring.
There are polo matches and horseback archery competitions, which are the favorite competitions of the young men in the capital.
Princes of appropriate age will also participate.
The emperor will also show up at that time. Those who win the competition will receive rewards from the emperor. If they catch the emperor's eye, they can even serve him. In short, it is an unparalleled honor.
Brother Shen participated twice and won first place each time, becoming the most dazzling young man in the competition.
This is also why so many young women like Brother Shen.
There are also many girls who secretly have a crush on Brother Shen before getting married.
When he was playing ball, riding a horse, and shooting arrows on the field, his handsome appearance and outstanding riding and shooting skills deeply touched the hearts of the women watching and fascinated them.
Like the crazy princess who died.
Now Brother Shen is not competing, but has become the referee.
Second Brother Shen has reached the age to practice horse riding and archery with his friends recently, just to stand out on the day of the spring competition, take the first place, and become the second celebrity of the Shen family.
Yan Bao also went to watch and cheer for Brother Shen.
The three days of the spring competition happen to be rest days.
The Royal Stables are open to the public, and anyone with a badge can enter to watch. This is a grand event that happens every three years in the capital.
The girls in the embroidery room were all exhausted for this day. Almost everyone had prepared gorgeous new clothes just to wear on the day of the spring competition to make a splash.
Madam Shen had already prepared Yan Bao's dress. She made it for Yan Bao herself, and it was almost the same as the one she bought.
Yan Bao liked it very much and was reluctant to take it off after putting it on.
Mrs. Shen was afraid that the Xu family would not let Xu Zhimo go out to wait for marriage, so she wrote a special invitation and sent it to the mansion, inviting Xu Zhimo to watch the game together.
Mrs. Xu agreed readily.
Even if Mrs. Xu did not agree, Xu Zhirong would find ways to make Xu Zhimo go out.
During the spring races, the racecourse was bustling with all the important people there.
Something happens every time there is a spring game.
If Xu Zhimo had done something embarrassing in the spring competition, would the Shen family still marry her home to save face?
Xu Zhirong has given up the idea of marrying into the Shen family in place of Xu Zhimo.
She can't do it, and that bitch Xu Zhimo can't do it either.
Yan Bao wore a beautiful dress, looking like a cute Fuwa. She stood in front of them and showed off, looking at them eagerly, waiting for praise: [Isn’t it cute?]
Shen Shoufu smiled and praised: “Yan Bao is so cute today, follow daddy later and let those people see how cute my daughter is!”
Madam Shen smiled and refused: "Your side is full of men, it's not fun for Yan Bao to go there, follow me, I will take you to meet other ladies and make them envy me for having a beautiful daughter."
