The moon falling to the ground

Chapter 46 Going to the Banquet

The oil lamp in the room was taken away by Qian at some point. Jian Yue took a bath in the dark and went to bed.

The next day, Jian Yue deliberately got up late.

She asked the maid to clean the yard and wash clothes: "Don't be impatient, mother-in-law, wash slowly and keep washing until dinner time."

The maid looked at her, then at the clothes in the basin. She was used to working quickly, so it was a bit difficult for her to wash just a few pieces of clothes while cooking.

However, she was someone who lived in the big mansion after all, and guessed that Jian Yue wanted to cause trouble, so she nodded and went to the well carrying the wooden basin.

Jian Yue took her time washing up and cooking.

The Jian family was immersed in the excitement and joy of going to the largest gold medal restaurant in the city for a banquet. They were all busy tidying up their clothes and had no time to pay attention to Jian Yue.

As the sun rose higher, Qian Shi realized that no one had called them to eat. She angrily walked into the kitchen and found Jian Yue still cooking.

"What time is it? Isn't the meal ready yet?"

"This is the last dish. It will be ready soon." Although he said it would be ready soon, his movements were still slow.

Qian was furious. She didn't want to spoil the good mood today, so she gritted her teeth and said, "Hurry up and serve the food. Let's eat. Miss Xinning is inviting us to dinner today, so we can't be late. I've also prepared new clothes for you to wear."

In order to eat quickly, she personally supervised the kitchen.

By the time we finished our meal, it was already past the Si hour.

Qian threw a pink fine cotton dress to Jian Yue and said, "Hurry up and change into it."

Jian Yue took the dress back to her room.

A slanted collar top and a pleated skirt. The style is very similar to the light blue dress the Yang family gave her, except that this dress has a few peach blossoms embroidered on it.

Jian Yue's skin is dark yellow now, so pink is not suitable for her. But who cares whether she likes it or not?

Jian Yue looked at the dress in her hand, and a cold light flashed in her eyes.

Bang bang bang!

"Jian Zhaodi, come out quickly, we are leaving." Qian knocked on the door outside.

Jian Yue suddenly opened the door, startling Qian: "Jian Zhaodi, are you going to steal? Why are you wearing a scarf?"

"This dress is too pink and makes my skin look darker, so I cover my face."

"If you cover your face, you won't be ugly anymore? An ugly person is an ugly person." Qian said sarcastically, and was in a hurry to go out, not thinking there was anything wrong.

Yan Xinning sent two carriages to pick up the Jian family. It was a big event, with two maids, two servants, and two servants.

The four members of the Jian family were all wearing clothes sent by Yan Xinning. The headdresses worn by Qian and Jian Xiaohe, and the ornaments worn by Jian Dacheng and his son were also given by Yan Xinning.

At the same time, the news that the mansion lord's daughter bought a house for her adoptive mother's family and hosted a banquet for her adoptive mother's family at Taihe Tower to express her gratitude to her adoptive parents was deliberately spread.

Many young talents who admired Yan Xinning and her fans were both envious and curious. What kind of family could be so favored by the noble and beautiful daughter of the mansion lord?

So, on that day, many people booked tables at Taihe Building, and Taihe Building was crowded.

There were six people sitting in the carriage: Qian, Jian Xiaohe, Jian Yue, two maids, and a woman. Another woman sat outside the carriage.

The woman in the carriage was tall and strong, with a face full of flesh and goldfish eyes. Ever since she got on the carriage, she had been staring at Jian Yue unscrupulously, looking at Jian Yue as if she were a chicken waiting to be slaughtered.

Jian Yue squinted her eyes and ignored her gaze.

There were many people in the carriage, and Qian's mother and daughter were wearing makeup, so the smell was very bad.

Qian couldn't stand the heat, and was too embarrassed to chase away the people sent by Yan Xinning, so she ordered Jian Yue: "It's too stuffy in the carriage, get off and run for a while! We'll be there soon."

Jian Yue opened her eyes and said calmly: "Are you sure, mother? I have no idea where to go. I may not be able to find the place after you finish your meal. If mother doesn't want me to go, I can get off the car."

Qian's heart sank and she glared at Jian Yue fiercely.

Today was a good opportunity to crush Jian Zhaodi. No matter who went, she had to go.

Staring at Jian Yue, Aunt You snorted coldly and said, "Girls should know etiquette and obey their parents' orders. You are disobedient and unfilial by talking back to your mother. Aunt Meng and I will teach you the rules from now on."

Jian Yue sneered at the words: "Who do you think you are? You think you are qualified to teach me the rules?"

Mrs. You frowned and said, "We were sent by Miss Xinning..."

"The daughter of a mansion master has her hands in other people's homes, interfering in everything. Her hands are really long."

"How outrageous!" Mrs. You scolded.

"You are the one who is so presumptuous! A servant is showing off in someone else's house. I want to ask the noble lord's daughter why."

"You, you dare!" Mrs. You's momentum weakened a little. She failed to scare Jian Zhaodi. If she really let her question the young lady, it would definitely damage the young lady's reputation, and she would not have a good ending.

She didn't dare to provoke Jian Yue anymore, but just glared at her viciously: Little bitch, just you wait!

When the carriage arrived at Taihe Tower, the entrance of Taihe Tower was already filled with all kinds of carriages.

As the top restaurant in Yanling Prefecture, Taihe Tower was built in a magnificent style. The three golden characters "Taihe Tower" sparkled in the sun.

The interior of the building is magnificently decorated, comparable to a modern five-star hotel.

Two maids led the way, and the Jian family followed into the hall. Po-zi You and Po-zi Meng walked behind.

The lobby was full of people.

The diners all knew that the mansion owner's daughter was treating them, and they all wanted to see what kind of family they were. When the Jian family stepped into the lobby, everyone's eyes were focused on them.

Jian Yue straightened her back, looked straight ahead, and walked naturally. On the contrary, the Jian family had never seen such a big scene before, so they were a little nervous.

The banquet was held on the second floor, and the private rooms on the second floor were all separated by screens and were not soundproof. I don't know why Yan Xinning chose a seat in the middle.

Even though the original owner had Yan Xinning's appearance in her memory, Jian Yue was still surprised when she saw Yan Xinning.

The lavender low-cut skirt with auspicious cloud patterns embroidered on the collar is tied to the armpits with a silk ribbon of the same color. The slender snow-white neck and half of the breasts are very reverie.

She wore a set of jade headpiece and had exquisite makeup, looking dignified and elegant.

Such a temperament is the first choice for wealthy families when choosing a daughter-in-law.

Yan Xinning's eyes are very similar to Qian's, with a pair of fox eyes. However, Qian's eyelids are now puffy, and her skin is not as tight and beautiful as that of a young girl in her twenties.

Yan Xinning stood up gracefully. Her eyes were more accurate than satellite positioning and she spotted Jian Yue walking behind her at a glance.

Jian Yue's face was covered with a cloth. The two looked at each other from a distance. Jian Yue's eyes showed neither joy nor anger, and she did not show the panic and timidity that Yan Xinning had expected.

Some of the diners on the second floor were looking over here, while others were listening with their ears perked up behind the screen.

"Miss, Mr. Jian, Mrs. Jian, Mr. Jian, and Miss Jian are here."

Yan Xinning smiled appropriately...
