    After Xiao Yeyang left, Daohua stayed with Gu Jian and Granny Gu at Taohua Temple for two days before returning to Yan Mansion.

    After returning home, Daohua began to prepare the medicinal materials needed to prepare the Eight Meridian Pills. After all the medicinal materials except the Marrow Grass were prepared, it was already more than half a month later.

    In mid-June, Mrs. Jiang sent a message to the officials of Ningmen Mansion, inviting the female relatives of each family to go to the Jiang Family Courtyard to enjoy the lotus flowers on June 21st.

    When Daohua saw the post, her whole body was resisting: "You can enjoy any kind of lotus on a hot day, it doesn't bother you."

    Mrs. Li took the post in her daughter's hand and said calmly: "Appreciating the lotus is secondary. I heard that June 21st is Miss Jiang's birthday."

    After hearing this, Daohua didn¡¯t want to go even more: ¡°Jiang Wanying is celebrating her birthday and she came here to torment us.¡±

    Mrs. Li glanced at the scorching sun outside the house and didn't like going out in such weather. However, the Jiang family had already posted a message, so they had to make a trip: "Okay, don't complain. Fortunately, the Jiang family's villa is here."  It¡¯s on the outskirts of the city, not too far away.¡±

    On June 21st, Mrs. Li took Daohua and Yan Yihuan to the Jiang family¡¯s suburban villa.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? away from home.

    Jiang Wanying wore a red dress today and looked very happy, standing among the ladies of various families like stars over the moon.

    Daohua took one look at it and then started admiring the lotus flowers in the lotus pond.

    "This lotus flower is so beautiful."

    While Daohua was sitting alone on the waterside pavilion admiring the flowers, Guo Xueming suddenly came over.

    Daohua turned to look at Guo Xueming, who was walking towards him with a smile, her eyebrows raised slightly.

    Guo Xueming came to Daohua and said with a smile, "Why is Miss Yan sitting here alone?"

    Daohua shook the fan in her hand: "The weather is too hot, I am too lazy to move."

    Guo Xueming smiled and said: "I am also afraid of heat. Miss Yan, you don't mind if I sit here."

    Daohua laughed: "This place doesn't belong to me, Miss Guo, you can sit wherever you like."

    Guo Xueming sat down and started chatting with Daohua.

    Daohua saw that Guo Xueming only talked about the weather and lotus flowers, so she followed her words and said a few words.

    Seeing Daohua¡¯s lukewarm attitude, Guo Xueming felt that he needed to learn more about the eldest daughter of the Yan family.

    You know, even in the capital, every time she attended a banquet, she was the target of everyone's friendship, but this eldest daughter of the Yan family, a fourth-rank official family, had no regard for her or Jiang Wanying.  Awareness to make friends.

    I don¡¯t know whether he is really noble or just pretending?

    The two sat for a while, and when the Jiang family's maid came over and said they could sit down for dinner, Daohua left Guo Xueming on the pretext of going to look for her sister.

    As soon as Daohua left, Guo Xueming's maid couldn't help but said: "Girl, why do you want to be so friendly with the eldest girl of the Yan family?"

    Guo Xueming gently shook her fan and said, "Firstly, the Yan family has helped my father. If I alienate her, people will say that my Guo family is ungrateful. Secondly, only by constant contact can we truly see a person clearly."

    ?? Is it really just because of the Yan family brothers that Cousin Yeyang has a good relationship with the Yan family?

    For some reason, she always felt that the way cousin Yeyang looked at the eldest daughter of the Yan family was different from others.

    "Compared to Jiang Wanying, who has a more noble family background and status, she is more afraid of Yan Yiyi, who comes from a fourth-rank official family.

    Maid: "Girl, I feel that there is really no need for you to focus on the eldest girl of the Yan family. You should think of more ways to get in touch with the young prince."

    Hearing this, Guo Xueming immediately glared at the maid: "What nonsense are you talking about? You don't even know where this place is. If others listen to it, will I lose my reputation?"

    The maid immediately admitted her mistake: "I was wrong."

    Guo Xueming snorted: "I will punish you when I get back." After saying that, he paused and said, "Since ancient times, marriage matters have been dictated by parents and matchmakers. I don't need to please cousin Yeyang. What I have to do is,  Just don¡¯t let him hate me, it¡¯s enough if he can accept me.¡±

    ?¡­

    The banquet was arranged in the pavilion next to the lotus pond. The ladies sat on the first floor and the girls sat on the second floor.

    As soon as Daohua and Yan Yihuan sat down, they heard the girls around them making low noises and looking across the lotus pond from time to time.

    Daohua followed everyone¡¯s gaze.When he passed by, he immediately saw Xiao Yeyang standing with Chiang Kai-shek on the other side of the lotus pond.

    "Miss Jiang, did the young prince come here specially to celebrate your birthday?" a lady asked Jiang Wanying.

    Jiang Wanying lowered her eyes and smiled lightly, without speaking, as if she acquiesced.

    When Guo Xueming saw him, a trace of sarcasm flashed in his eyes. On the Dragon Boat Festival, cousin Yeyang denied that he and Jiang Wanying were childhood sweethearts. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell at a glance that cousin Yeyang didn't like Jiang Wanying.

    How long has passed, the Jiang family behaved so speciously again, they really have no shame at all.

    As if she had thought of something, Guo Xueming suddenly looked at Daohua. When she saw Daohua's expression being calm and unconcerned, she felt a little unsure.

    Generally speaking, if a woman is interested in a man, she will be a little jealous when she hears that the man specially came to celebrate the birthday of another daughter.

    This eldest girl of the Yan family is too calm and doesn¡¯t seem to care at all about cousin Yeyang coming over.

    Daohua noticed that someone was looking at her. She raised her eyes and met Guo Xueming's gaze. She looked at Guo Xueming's hurriedly looking away and gave an inaudible sneer.

    At this time, there was another noise from downstairs.

    I saw a stewardess running over with a few maids, with an excited smile on her face.

    "Madam, the Queen Mother has sent someone to give the girl a birthday gift."

    After hearing this, Mrs. Jiang suddenly stood up: "Where is the person?"

    The housekeeper pointed back: "It's right at the back. It should be there soon."

    After hearing this, Mrs. Jiang immediately asked the maid to call Jiang Wanying downstairs.

    Looking at this scene, Daohua¡¯s eyes flashed and she thought to herself, the person sent by the Queen Mother to deliver the gift must have come at just the right time.

    Guo Xueming on the side smiled directly and said: "The Queen Mother really loves Miss Jiang very much, otherwise she would not send someone to give her a birthday gift with such fanfare."

    Hearing this, the expressions of the ladies present moved.

    "It's a lie that the Jiang family invited them to come to enjoy the lotus today. It's true that they come to see how much the Queen Mother values ??the Jiang family."

    Soon, a middle-aged eunuch in his thirties or forties appeared in front of everyone leading several young eunuchs.

    Mrs. Jiang came forward with Jiang Wanying. The middle-aged eunuch asked the young eunuch to stand up and show the Queen Mother's reward. When Mrs. Jiang and her daughter saw it, they quickly knelt down and thanked her.

    The middle-aged eunuch helped Mrs. Jiang with a smile on her face and asked aloud: "Is the young prince here? The Queen Mother also has something to reward him."

    Mrs. Jiang immediately sent someone to call Xiao Yeyang.

    After a while, Jiang Shenzheng came over with Xiao Yeyang, but Jiang Shenzheng hurriedly walked in front, while Xiao Yeyang walked slowly behind.

    Daohua was looking up at the attic. When she saw Xiao Yeyang's frown, she knew that he was extremely unwilling.

    Thinking of his sudden appearance here, and looking at the eunuch downstairs who seemed to have appeared at the right time, I couldn't help but feel that this incident seemed a bit deliberately arranged by the Jiang family.

    Suddenly, Daohua¡¯s heart tightened.

    The Queen Mother¡¯s reward

    Does the Queen Mother want to directly poke Xiao Yeyang and Jiang Wanying?

    Daohua thought of this, and Guo Xueming also thought of it, so her face was extremely ugly at the moment.

    At this time, Xiao Yeyang arrived downstairs.

    The middle-aged eunuch immediately took a sandalwood box from the little eunuch behind him with a smile, and quickly opened the box. Immediately, a pair of mandarin duck jade pendants tied with concentric knots came into view.

    Seeing the contents in the box, Xiao Yeyang, who frowned, turned cold and glanced at the middle-aged eunuch, Jiang Shenzheng, and Madam Chiang expressionlessly.

    The middle-aged eunuch felt his scalp numb when he saw Xiao Yeyang, but thinking of the Queen Mother's explanation, he still said bravely: "Little Prince, this is a reward from the Queen Mother to you and County Princess Wanying. Thank you and accept the reward."

    Xiao Yeyang stood still. Mrs. Guo and Guo Xueming both watched with their hearts raised, and Daohua also held the silk handkerchief in her hands tightly.

    Seeing that Xiao Yeyang refused to accept the reward, Jiang Wanying smiled and said, "I'll take mine first." After saying that, she reached for the jade pendant in the box.

    However, Xiao Yeyang was one step faster than her, took away two jade pendants, and then threw them away into the distance with a 'swish'.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
