Chapter 894: The eldest daughter is as bright as spring flowers (16)

Early in the morning, the Prime Minister's Mansion became bustling.

Although the weather was cold, some people had already gotten up to clean the yard, sweeping away the dead leaves on the road and the icy stone steps.

Yesterday afternoon, all the horses in the stable were washed and brushed clean. Now they were eating high-quality grass and wagging their tails leisurely. Both the red-maned horse and the black horse looked very energetic.

The prime minister in the front courtyard entered the palace for the morning court session at dawn.

After Qingli finished her breakfast, the maids invited her to the dressing table. They said they wanted to comb her hair into a beautiful bun so that she would make a stunning appearance at the grandmother's birthday party.

Qingli let the maids do whatever they wanted, with one thing in mind: don't make it too extravagant and overshadow the main event. After all, the purpose of this birthday party was actually to introduce her daughter who had been missing for seven years. The eleven-year-old girl was the key figure in this birthday party.

Chun Lan patted her chest and said, "Miss, you are already very beautiful. You just need to comb your hair into a beautiful bun!"

Qingli is naturally beautiful and has a very plastic face. She can handle both heavy and light makeup, and she doesn't need to put too much on her face. She inserted three hair accessories into the bun on her head, changed into a dress made of floating brocade, and finished her makeup.

After the Prime Minister returned from the morning court session, Qingli went to the main courtyard.

Sitting in the main courtyard were Prime Minister Song and Mrs. Song Chen.

Prime Minister Song was still asking Song Qingting, and when he learned that his daughter was staying quietly in the yard copying scriptures, he looked at Song Chen with satisfaction.

"She's been kneeling in the ancestral hall, her knees are injured, and she's been taking bitter medicine every day, but she still won't change her mind, clamoring about getting married. It's making it difficult for me to do this, and if it gets out, it'll be a joke to outsiders. But today I thought she was going to make a scene. It's rare for her to be so well-behaved." Song Chen forced a smile: "Perhaps the nanny sent by the master is helpful."

Qingli watched the two of them talking with a smile. When she heard what Song Chen said, she sneered in her heart. How could Song Qingting be content? Now the Prime Minister's father was angry at Song Qingting's inconsistency and refused to agree to her marrying into the royal family, but Song Qingting would not give up easily. She was waiting to see the show.

Sure enough, when Qingli got on the carriage parked at the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion, she heard a slight quarrel coming from the carriage in front.

The person sitting in the carriage in front of Qingli was Song Chenshi, and in the front was Prime Minister Song's carriage.

Chun Lan got on the carriage and whispered, "Miss, I saw Nanny Bao leave Madam's carriage and go to the Master's carriage, but she came back soon. I wonder what happened?"

“Those who need to know will always know.”

It took two minutes for the carriage to slowly move forward.

Arriving near the gate of the *** Mansion, Chun Lan looked at the Second Young Lady beside the Madam in shock. How had the Second Young Lady slipped into the procession? Wasn't she under house arrest? She had barely walked after leaving the ancestral hall, and had been transported back to the courtyard in a sedan chair. How could she be well in just a few days?

Qingli looked at Song Qingting with surprise.

"Huh? Isn't my second sister recuperating in Yimeiyuan? When did she come here? I didn't even know about it."

Song Qingting said gloomily, "Big sister, you're shocked to see me! Don't you welcome me?"

"That's not true, it's just..."

Qingli looked down, and Song Qingting subconsciously stood up straight. What were she looking at? She wasn't lame!

Prime Minister Song's face was expressionless, and his voice was cold: "Alright, everyone, go in. Second son, follow your mother closely. Now that you're here, don't embarrass the Prime Minister's family, or I won't let you off easily."

Song Chen quickly expressed her opinion: "Master, don't worry, I will take good care of Ting'er."

At this time, Song Qingting did not dare to go against her father, for fear that her father would really have someone send her back home.

"Don't worry, Daddy, Ting'er will be a good boy!"

Qingli looked at Prime Minister Song's slightly sarcastic eyes. Although it disappeared quickly, she saw it clearly!

The Prime Minister walked in first. The housekeeper of the *** Mansion was receiving guests at the gate. When he saw the Prime Minister coming, he took two steps at a time and quickly greeted the Prime Minister and his family with a smile.

***'s eldest son Zhou Cheng also stood at the door to welcome the guests and escorted the prime minister into the mansion with courteous manners.

After entering the princess's mansion, Zhou Cheng took the prime minister to the male guests' side.

The maid from the princess's mansion took Qingli and the others to the female guests' place.

Many female guests have arrived, and Qingli's aunt has also come and talked to Qingli.

Soon, several of Qingli's close friends came over to invite her to have tea together. After reporting to Mrs. Song Chen, Qingli followed her sisters.

Song Qingting also wanted to slip away quickly, but Song Chen found an excuse to keep her by her side, which made the ladies look at Song Qingting meaningfully, and then continue chatting as if nothing had happened.

The banquet hadn't officially started yet, so everyone was sitting down to rest.

The seats for male and female guests are actually separated by a fence made of green shade. The fence is less than two meters high and it is just not convenient for people to walk directly through on both sides, but you can roughly see the opposite side through the gaps and holes.

It is very common for young girls to be in love and young boys to be thinking about love. Occasionally, men and women will look at each other and then shyly look away.

Qingli and these young ladies sat and drank tea for a while, then walked out of the pavilion and strolled around.

One of the male guests saw this and quietly stood up.
