After eavesdropping on my thoughts, my whole family changed their fate
Chapter 31 Flower Appreciation Banquet
When Sang Xiaowan heard that someone was going to find her a marriage partner, she was so frightened that her breathing stopped and she didn't know how to respond.
"Sister-in-law...Sister-in-law, please stop making fun of me. I...I want to be a widow for my deceased husband for the rest of my life. I won't marry anyone. Is it because you despise me that you want to marry me off?"
She didn't expect that Jin Ruoyun didn't play by the rules at all and actually wanted to marry her off!
"It was just a joke, Xiaowan, why did you take it so seriously? Your husband died in a foreign land, and you have two children. I'm sure it would be hard for you to forget him even if he died."
"Sister-in-law won't force you. When you have figured it out, come find me. As for Xingruo, if she wants to go, let's go together."
How could I make a fool of myself if I didn't go?
As long as they stay at home and have Sang Xiaowan watching them, they will never be exposed.
If Gu Xing were to marry the Third Prince in the future, she would be even more difficult to deal with. Ruining her reputation now would at least prevent her from marrying the Third Prince.
Sang Xiaowan breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that she agreed to take Gu Xingruo with her.
"Then I'll trouble my sister-in-law. If she doesn't understand something, just tell her. Don't hold back."
After she finished speaking, she picked up the teacup, looked at Jin Yuanyuan who was sitting on the bed beside her, and went over to pick her up.
"Yuanyuan is so cute. She seems to have grown taller. Children grow fast. For example, Gu An, I saw him a few days ago. His head was much taller."
"Sister-in-law, you won't bring Gu An to this flower viewing banquet, right? After all, he is not a female relative, and it would be inconvenient for you to bring him along."
Jin Yuanyuan felt uncomfortable being held by her.
[What are you doing to me, a cute girl? Let me go!]
[If someone is being nice to me for no reason, she is either a traitor or a thief! Her purpose for coming here is definitely not that simple, she is not going to hurt me, ahhh! Let me go. ]
She was still young and couldn't resist Sang Xiaowan at all, but she could still do some small actions.
She stretched out her little hands, grabbed the hairpin on her head and the purse at her waist, and threw them into space.
Feeling that this was not enough to vent his anger, he bit Sang Xiaowan's neck.
Her teeth had not yet grown in, so her bite did not hurt, but she used all her strength, and it was impossible for Sang Xiaowan not to react.
"Ah! How can you bite me, kid?"
Sang Xiaowan quickly returned her to Jin Ruoyun.
I will never hug him again. This little brat is not lovable at all. He even dared to bite her!
Jin Ruoyun hugged Jin Yuanyuan and looked at her apologetically.
"Xiao Wan, Yuanyuan didn't mean it. Children don't like to be held by strangers. You are her aunt, so you shouldn't mind." Jin Ruoyun's words put her in a difficult position.
If Sang Xiaowan was angry, it would mean she was immature.
"…It's okay… It didn't hurt me, I'm not angry."
She felt like blood was about to seep out of her neck, and she didn't know where this damn kid got so much strength!
"Sister-in-law, you haven't replied to me yet. Will Gu An go with you?"
Jin Yuanyuan noticed that something was wrong with her.
[Why does she ask the third brother so frequently? Does she have some conspiracy? ]
[Could it be... Could it be that she is planning to kidnap and sell my third brother? Ahhh, mother, you must take my third brother with you! ]
[Third brother is so stupid. Leaving him at home is too dangerous. It's like walking into a tiger's mouth! ]
Originally, Jin Ruoyun thought she was just asking casually, but she didn't expect her to ask a second time.
She must have other intentions. She asked about An'er so abruptly. Could it be that she really wanted to kidnap An'er as her daughter said? !
She could never leave him at home alone with Sang Xiaowan!
"An'er has been clamoring to go out and play these days, so I plan to take him with me this time."
When Sang Xiaowan heard that Gu An would be taken with her, she panicked.
"Why take him there? They are all women there, and he is a boy. No one will play with him if he goes there."
Jin Ruoyun: "He is only six years old, just a child. It's okay to take him with you. Other families will also bring their children with them. There will be playmates."
Sang Xiaowan became uneasy and twisted her handkerchief in her hands, obviously anxious.
She couldn't persuade him anymore, as doing so would definitely expose herself.
When they returned to their own yard, Sang Xiaowan kept giving instructions to Gu Xingruo.
"You must find a way to bring Gu An to the place I mentioned. Remember!"
Gu Xingruo was not very present, so he replied perfunctorily:
"Oh, I get it, mom, but why did you take him out? What do you want to do?"
Sang Xiaowan smiled meaningfully, "Of course I'm going to find something for your aunt to do. Seeing her living such a carefree life makes me angry!"
A snow girl was thrown to her, so why should Jin Ruoyun live so comfortably? If she doesn't live well, Jin Ruoyun can't expect to have an easy life either!
After she loses her child, let’s see if she is still in the mood to take a concubine for Gu Boqing.
If Gu Xingruo didn't know what she was going to do, she didn't care.
She stretched out her hand and said, "Mom, I have to wear new clothes when I go to the flower viewing banquet. Give me some money so I can buy some new clothes."
Sang Xiaowan felt that her daughter was right and that she should dress better to outdo Jin Ruoyun.
She reached to her waist for her purse.
"Huh?! Where's my purse? I clearly have it with me!"
Gu Xingruo: "Did you forget to bring it? Is it not in the jewelry box?"
The two searched the house but couldn't find it.
That was what Gu Boqing gave her a few days ago. It weighed several dozen taels, but she actually lost it.
Sang Xiaowan slammed the table in anger.
"Xue Niang is such a jinx! Whenever she comes, I always lose things!"
On the day of the flower viewing banquet, every household will bring the best flowers they have grown to appreciate them together, while also drinking tea and eating snacks.
In fact, these are not the most important things. The reason why the ladies participated so actively was also to find a partner for their daughters.
The event was held in a house of the Jiang family.
Jin Ruoyun arrived at Jiang's house, got off the carriage holding Jin Yuanyuan, and Gu Xingruo followed closely.
She didn't let Ding Mo support her, but jumped down by herself. She couldn't wait to go in and looked around curiously.
"So this is a flower viewing party. There aren't that many flowers. What's there to see?"
Ancient people were so boring. I wouldn’t have come here if I had known this.
The ladies and wives of each family had arrived, and upon hearing what Gu Xingruo said, several of them kindly gave a reminder.
"My dear girl, you may not know the rules of the flower viewing banquet. Everyone who comes to this banquet will bring the best flowers grown at home to enjoy with the sisters."
"So it's not that there are no beautiful flowers, but that everyone's flowers haven't been taken out yet."
Gu Xingruo nodded as if she understood, "Oh, is that so? I didn't know that. I thought there was a large sea of flowers here for us to enjoy."
"But what's the point of comparing this flower? What good will it do if you win? You can't eat or drink it."
"You might as well use the money you earn from growing flowers to help the poor!"
"How many people are hungry now, selling their children for starvation? Instead of helping them, you are here comparing whose flowers are prettier? People in Kyoto are just too picky."
