Luo Rong saw Luo Qin's eyes resting on the young general. She quietly pulled Luo Qin's corner, leaned closer and whispered: "Aunt Qin, let me tell you, the man on my grandfather's left is the legitimate son of the Yingchuan Yu family - Yu Qilang Yu Bai. He has been fighting on the battlefield for many years since he was 18 years old, and has led troops to defeat the Xianbei people many times!"

Luo Qin nodded slightly and listened to her continue, "General Yu was injured and returned to Nanyang City this time. Countless girls in Nanyang fell in love with him, but it was a pity that General Yu was indifferent to the girls' love. Alas..."

Luo Rong could not hide the regret in her tone. The next moment, she glanced at Luo Jin in front of her, and then lowered her voice and said: "Even my self-righteous aunt Jin once expressed her feelings to General Yu, but it was a pity that it ended in nothing. I guess General Yu didn't like her either.

Hehe, Aunt Qin, you don't know, my Aunt Jin is very narrow-minded and can't tolerate any grain of sand in her eyes. And grandpa dotes on her. She has been able to get whatever she wants since she was little. She has to get whatever she likes. This time, she was finally defeated by General Yu.

She really dared to think that. General Yu was a legitimate son of the Yu family. How could he be interested in a bastard girl from a branch of the family? Even if he really liked her looks, he would only take her as a concubine reluctantly. "

At this point, Luo Rong couldn't help but feel a little more gloating, and Luo Qin smiled silently. It turned out to be just a little quarrel between little girls, jealousy between aunt and nephew.

"Oh, by the way," Luo Rong looked at Luo Qin, his eyes lingering on her flawless face for a few seconds, and then said: "Aunt Qin, your appearance is really... I have never imagined it in my life... Today, I know that there is really someone who looks so beautiful, as if she should not exist in the mortal world.

Everyone says that my aunt is the most beautiful girl in Nanyang, but she pales in comparison to you.

Aunt Qin, you have to be careful. Aunt Jin is just as intolerable as her vixen. Be careful that she might get jealous of you."

Luo Qin: "..."

It's only the first day we met, and you're saying bad things about your aunt. Isn't that not nice?

But Luo Rong also meant well, Luo Qin thanked her: "Thank you, Rong, for your reminder. I will pay attention to it."

After a while, the seats were filled one after another, and Luo Qin also saw the honest man Yu Ke who came out of the city to pick them up. He had taken off his armor and changed into plain casual clothes.

When Luo Qin looked over, the rough man also saw her. When he saw her looking at him, Yu Ke smiled and Luo Qin nodded slightly.

After the guests arrived, servants quickly came to serve the dishes. Various soups, stews and barbecues were placed in front of Luo Qin, with chopsticks and daggers at hand.

Everything was ready. As the host, Luozi symbolically raised his glass and said a few polite words, introducing Luoji and his son to everyone, and then the banquet officially began.

The hall was full of guests, toasting each other and clinking glasses. In the center of the hall there were beautiful dancers dancing to liven up the atmosphere. Their long sleeves fluttered, their waists swayed, and their every frown and smile was full of charm. Many young men stared at them in amazement.

The high-ranking officials and nobles of the Jin Dynasty would privately keep some dancers. They would ask them to dance to entertain the banquets. If a guest took a fancy to a dancer and asked for one, the host would directly give the dancer to him.

Luo Qin tried to keep her head down and keep a low profile throughout the meal. During the meal, she clearly felt Luo Jin looking at her many times. When she looked back, Luo Jin quickly retracted her gaze. After so many times, Luo Qin was too lazy to pay attention.

The banquet was over, it was already late at night. Luo Qin's legs were numb from kneeling. He followed Luo Rong out of the hall. He looked up and saw the bright moon hanging high in the sky, with twinkling stars. The air outside was much fresher than inside.

Luo Rong sent Luo Qin to Qinmei Courtyard before returning to his own courtyard. Entering his own courtyard, Luo Qin estimated that there were six unmarried sisters-in-law in the Nanyang Luo family. Together with the slack-talking Luo Jin, there were seven people in total.

According to the social etiquette among the ladies from the aristocratic families, Luo Qin should give them a gift when she came to Nanyang for the first time.

What should I give as a gift?

Oh, by the way, she remembered that when they first met today, several girls cast their eyes on the hair accessories on her head.

The hair accessory that Luo Qin wore today was a pink and white camellia flower hairpin with pearl tassels. Flower-wrapped hairpins originated in the Ming Dynasty in her previous life and were a popular craft in the Qing Dynasty, but were not available in this era.

Not only that, there were no velvet flowers in this era. Velvet flowers were a craft hair accessory that entered the palace in the Tang Dynasty and had not yet been seen in this era.

There were silk flowers, but they were not as diverse and beautiful as those in later generations.

The luxury jewelry of this era was mostly made of gold, silver, jade, agate and the like, and the craftsmanship was not as sophisticated as that of later generations, and many techniques had not yet emerged.

She can give flowers to the girls!

After making up her mind, Luo Qin told Rufang to bring the tools so that she could start drawing the blueprints.

Flower wrapping is beautiful, but it takes a lot of effort and is a purely handmade product.

Fortunately, in the next few days, Luo Qin said that she was physically and mentally exhausted and needed to rest, so she closed the door and refused to see visitors. No one came to disturb her. She concentrated on making seven different styles of flower-wrapped hair accessories, including butterfly clips, orchid hairpins, lotus hairpins, plum blossom combs... Each flower-wrapped hair accessory was decorated with three pearl tassels.

Luo Qin placed the finished products on the table. Rufang saw the girl's finished products and praised them repeatedly, "The girl is really clever and skillful. Every time she makes a beautiful product."

Luo Qin also taught Rufang how to make flower wrapping. She could do it too, but her design was not as good as Luo Qin's. It might be because Luo Qin loved art in her previous life and she had some artistic talent.

"Girl, you can open a shop with your craftsmanship, or make some to present to the nobles in the palace." After looking through several wrapped flowers, Rufang marveled.

Luo Qin smiled, "I did have the idea, but our place in Chaoyang was too small before, and there were not many people who wanted to buy hair accessories, so I didn't plan to open a shop. But we can try it when we move to a bigger place in the future."

Rufang was excited when she heard it, "Okay, okay, I can help you, too!"

After the flowers were wrapped, Luo Qin packed them in a small wooden box and took Rufang with him to personally go to the girls' courtyards one by one to deliver the gifts.

When the little girls saw that it was Luo Qin who came in person to deliver the gifts, they opened the boxes and found exquisite hair accessories inside, which were crafted hair accessories they had never seen before. After Rufang explained, they realized that they were made by Luo Qin himself. Now the girls felt that Luo Qin was even more friendly.

Who wouldn’t like a girl who is incomparably beautiful, gentle and friendly?

Soon, Luo Qin became friends with the girls from the Nanyang Luo family, but Luo Jin remained indifferent. After receiving the gifts, she sent someone to express her gratitude, and the two never had any contact again.

Luo Rong was different. Since she got the flower binding, the little girl wore it on her head every day when she went out. Not only that, she also asked Luo Qin to teach her how to do it. So Luo Qin asked Rufang to teach her maid.

In the past few days, Luo Ji and his son also started preparing to treat Yu Bai's right hand. Luo Qin seemed to have returned to the time when she was in Chaoyang, when her father and brother were busy saving people, and she stayed obediently in her own yard and did not cause any trouble to her father and brother.
