Want to tease the prince, the cat is soft and delicate
Chapter 274 The Coming-of-Age Ceremony Begins
"What time is it?" Mei Susu was afraid that this was still a dream, so she pinched her arm and felt pain, so it was not a dream.
The maid replied respectfully: "One quarter of the morning hour."
It was just past three in the morning and she had only slept for less than an hour.
Mei Susu's entire body was soaked in cold sweat and she felt extremely uncomfortable.
She asked the maid to boil some hot water so that she could take a bath and change into dry clothes.
The maid said yes and went out.
The moon hanging high outside the window is big and round, indicating that it will be a rare good day today.
But for some reason Mei Susu couldn't be happy at all. The dream just now seemed to indicate that something bad was about to happen.
Her heart was half hanging in the air.
The woman who looked exactly like her said, "I am you, you are me, you and I are one person." She also said, "You are destined to go back. Only when you go back, you will be the real Su Su."
Mei Susu didn't know whether the dream was true or not, nor did she know who the woman in the dream was, and she didn't even know whether her words were credible. But whenever she thought about it, she couldn't calm down.
As for the koi, was this really a foreshadowing or just a false dream? Mei Susu's mind and heart were like a tangled mess and she couldn't figure it out.
When wrapped in hot water, the coldness on Meisusu's body dissipated a little.
The pounding heart also calmed down a little.
She told herself that it was all just a dream and not to think too much about it.
Tomorrow is a special day, and Cheche has gone to such a long way to wait for this day.
She can't attend the event with two panda eyes.
That would definitely be worrying.
After a quick bath, Mei Susu changed into dry clothes and lay back on the couch.
Mei Susu squinted her eyes and thought for a while but still didn't feel sleepy at all, so she called the maid and asked her to light some calming incense, and then she slowly fell asleep.
Perhaps it was the effect of the calming incense, Mei Susu did not dream in the second half of the night and slept quite soundly.
This calming incense is good, but it is too effective, so when the time comes, the maid can't wake Mei Susu up.
Seeing that she would be late for the banquet if she didn't attend it, the maid had no choice but to run to find Mrs. Shan.
Mrs. Shan hurried over and felt a headache when she saw Mei Susu sleeping soundly on the couch.
"Knowing that we have to get up early today, why did you let the young lady light two incense sticks to calm the nerves?"
The maid knelt on the ground, shaking with fear: "Young lady said she couldn't sleep, and asked me to light two."
"She told you to order two, so you ordered two! Are you trying to piss me off to death?"
Mrs. Shan's body trembled with anger. If this was just a coming-of-age ceremony, it would be fine, but the main thing was that the man in the palace was planning to use today to announce their engagement. If this went wrong, she would offend everyone.
Shan Yanjing quickly supported her and comforted her.
"Mom, don't be angry. There's still some time before the banquet starts. Let my little sister sleep. It won't affect her dressing."
As soon as she said this, Mrs. Shan immediately understood and ordered the servants to lift the man off the couch.
So Mei Susu was supported by Shan Yanjing and slept with her head tilted. The servants changed her clothes, washed her, and dressed her up until dawn and the roosters crowed.
Mei Susu woke up in Shan Yanjing's arms. When she woke up, she found that she was not lying down but sitting, and leaning in Shan Yanjing's arms. She thought she was sleepwalking.
Prepare to take a nap on the couch.
Shan Yanjing pulled her back to the stool. The sudden pull also woke Mei Susu up and realized that she was not sleepwalking.
Turning around, he saw the girl with loose hair and delicate makeup in the bronze mirror and blinked twice.
When did she even put on her makeup?
Shan Yanjing looked at her confused face and sighed, "In another hour, the guests should be here, but you light two sleeping incense sticks when one is not enough. I was afraid that you would sleep until the evening and even skip meals."
Mei Susu touched her cheek and looked out the window, only to find that it was pitch black outside when she fell asleep just a moment ago, but now the sun was shining brightly.
"I was sleeping so soundly? I didn't even wake you up for you to do my makeup?"
If Mei Susu had not experienced it herself, she would not have believed it. The maid tortured her so much, making her wash and change clothes, but she did not even notice it.
"Who knows what's wrong with you? It's not like I haven't used sleeping perfume before, but it's not as effective as yours. I wake up at the slightest noise. Could it be that the one I used is fake?"
Shan Yanjing was extremely suspicious at this moment, and the sleeping incense she used was not the same one Mei Susu used.
The sleeping incense was brought to Mei Susu by the maid. She didn't know whether it was the same kind, but she had never slept so soundly before. Today was the first time.
Fortunately, it did not delay my work, which is a blessing in disguise.
When Mrs. Shan saw that she woke up, she angrily scolded her twice, calling her a dead girl. Mei Susu made a naughty face at her, acted coquettishly, and coaxed Mrs. Shan a few words, which made Mrs. Shan calm down.
As Mrs. Shan went to the lobby for breakfast, Mei Susu was afraid of eating too much and getting a stomach upset, so she only had a bowl of bird's nest porridge for breakfast.
Although Mei Susu had no appetite in the morning, this bowl of bird's nest porridge was really too little. But no matter how much she begged, Mrs. Shan refused to give her a second bowl.
Mei Susu had no choice but to put down her bowl and chopsticks with a sad face. She felt empty in her stomach and wanted to eat meat buns.
The Shan family is particularly lively today. Guests begin to arrive one after another after the 9:00 p.m.
Master Wen stood at the door to welcome the guests, and soon he was very busy.
A carriage slowly stopped in front of the mountain mansion. The carriage was luxurious, with pearl curtains and white gauze. The breeze brought a gust of fragrance, which made people around stop involuntarily and want to see who was coming.
The pearl curtain was lifted, and a woman dressed in a blue and white brocade shirt and a veiled hat walked out of the carriage. In her arms was a small tabby cat, which was sleeping soundly in her arms.
There was a circle of white gauze around the veil, hiding her face and making it difficult to see clearly.
But even so, one can still tell from her figure and every move that she is not a simple person.
Everyone was guessing her identity, and even Master Wen frowned, as he didn't remember knowing this person.
The woman's steps were like lotus flowers, and she moved lightly in front of Master Wen.
The maid behind her handed the gift to the servant next to Master Wen, and then retreated behind the woman.
His origins were never told, nor his name.
Master Wen was speechless for a moment, then thought for a moment before asking, "May I ask your surname, young lady? Where are you from? Do you have an invitation from my Shan family?"
A breeze blew by, blowing up the veil on the veil. As the veil was lifted, a peerless face flashed by, like disappearing light, difficult to capture.
When it speaks, the voice is melodious and graceful, like the sound of a lark, pleasant and delightful.
"I came from a small place. I passed by here and saw that there was a happy event in the Grand Master's family. I came here with a small gift to ask for a glass of wine. I wonder if I am bothering you?"
Everyone who comes is a guest, and the other party has prepared gifts, so there is no reason to turn them away.
What's more, this woman is well-dressed and has an extraordinary temperament. Even if she is not from Kyoto, she is either rich or noble. Master Wen cannot afford to be on bad terms with her.
So he greeted her with a smile, saying, "Miss, as long as you don't mind the poor food and cold wine in my mountain home, please come in and take a seat."
The woman bowed slightly to show respect, then entered the house with her maid.
Master Wen looked at her back with a frown on his face. He was just about to send a servant to inquire about the girl's surname when the maid who had followed the girl into the mansion came out again.
She walked to the front of Master Wen, bowed to him, and said respectfully: "My master said that since the master asked her to come into the mansion, it means that he trusts her. In order to reassure the master, she specially sent me to tell him the name of my master."
"The head of my family is a Miao, with a single name, Jin."
After saying this, the maid turned around and went into the mansion.
Only Master Wen was left standing there, muttering: "Surname Miao? Miao Jin? Such a familiar name."
