Chapter 248: Chapter 248
Liu Anyu, who also received the news, almost fainted from crying.

"Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow."

Aunt Qiu looked at her daughter who had been wronged and deformed, and she felt a wave of anger and resentment in her heart, but she was powerless: "This is your mother's decision, and your father can't influence your mother's thoughts."

"From my point of view, it's because my mother doesn't want to see me well, otherwise she must have a way to convince my mother." Liu Anyu said bitterly.

Although Aunt Qiu also thought so in her heart, she didn't dare to reveal it: "Don't say that again, otherwise your marriage will really be ruined."

"Hmph." Liu Anyu snorted softly, then lay down on the table and wept again.

No matter whether the madam can persuade the empress or not, the final result is that Liu Anhui will marry the second prince, and her daughter will lose the election.

Even Master Xiang felt that Madam had done her best in this matter, so she must not have any complaints.

What else can Aunt Qiu say?
Because Xiangye owes Miss Six a debt in this matter, he will definitely take care of her marriage, and Madam will no longer interfere with it.

If rumors spread that she and her daughter are dissatisfied with the wife at this time, then the days to come will be in dire straits.

Although the imperial decree referring to the marriage has not yet been issued, when everyone in the Liu family knew that the fourth young lady was about to become the second prince's side concubine, the courtyard of Aunt Tao and Liu Anhui was very lively for a while.

The aunts who usually have a mediocre relationship all smile like flowers and chat with Aunt Tao.

And the concubine sisters are also the eldest of the fourth sister, and the fourth sister surrounds Liu Anhui kindly, and they don't want to build a good relationship so that they can get married for their own benefit.

What about the second prince and side concubine...

It's just that even the fifth sister who was born on the same day can't compare to her!
On the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, the imperial decree came to Liu's house, and Mrs. Liu led the whole house to receive the decree. The Ministry of Rites set the auspicious day for August th.

During the Dragon Boat Festival, there is a dragon boat race on the Chongchuan River, and the two sides of the Linhe River are very lively.

The private rooms upstairs in the teahouse and tavern were fully booked, and there were crowds of people watching the excitement on the bank.

Lu Xiang booked the best private room on the third floor of Chunman Building early.

Chunmanlou is one of the best restaurants in the capital, because it is next to the Chongchuan River, it was snatched up by countless dignitaries a month ago.

Xiao Er led Lu Xiang and Yunzhe master and servant into the room, opened the window, a burst of moisture came in, and what caught his eye was the scenery on the river. Dozens of dragon boats were lined up in a row, ready to go. There was a lot of voices on both sides.

Lu Xiang asked for a pot of Yuqian Longjing and Sanpan nuts, Xiao Er brought it in after a while, put it on the table by the window, and then backed out.

"Sister-in-law and elder sister He haven't come yet..." Lu Xiang looked out the window and said casually.

Yun Zhe said with a smile: "Miss, we came too early."

"Oh." Lu Xiang grabbed a handful of melon seeds and began to knock them: "When will the competition start?"

Wuyue replied: "It's the third quarter of the clock, and it will start in half an hour."

Ah Man grabbed a few walnuts and squeezed them with bare hands. She crushed the hard cores, revealing the plump flesh. Then she put them into the little butterfly in front of Lu Xiang, and then pinched one for herself.

Yun Zhe and Wu Yue looked at Ah Man who was easily pinching walnuts, and the corners of their mouths couldn't help twitching slightly.

"Miss, do you have any pastries?" Ah Man asked while eating.

Lu Xiang smiled lightly and glanced at Ah Man: "Wait until Sister-in-law and Sister He come, otherwise it will all go into your stomach."

The corner of Ah Man's mouth twitched slightly: "..."

She is so innocent.

Just as she was talking, the door of the private room was opened suddenly. Lu Xiang thought it was Qiao Jingru or He Zhiyan who had arrived, and immediately turned her head joyfully, only to see Sheng Xian grinning like a flower, holding the Holding a tray, he bowed half-bent and saluted: "This subordinate has seen Miss San."

chirp...

Ah Man looked at the pastry plates stacked on the tray, took a deep breath, and before Lu Xiang could speak, he walked over and took the tray from Sheng Xian's hand, and said to Lu Xiang in surprise, "Miss, It is the pastry of Wufangzhai."

Lu Xiang: "..."

It’s really a foodie. You can know where it comes from just by looking at the dim sum on the plate?

Sheng Xian said with a smile: "Chunmanlou's food and wine are the best in the capital, but their cakes are not as good as Wufangzhai's. His Highness learned that the third lady is here, so he specially ordered his subordinates to go to Wufangzhai to buy cakes for the third lady. Come."

Lu Xiang watched Ah Man put the plates on the table one by one, with a look of helplessness in her eyes, she looked up at Sheng Xian with a smile and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness."

As she said that, she picked up the Yidie Huamei in front of her, and said: "Reciprocity is a courtesy, I invite Your Highness to eat the Huamei."

Yun Zhe took the plate from Lu Xiang and handed it to Sheng Xian.

Sheng Xian looked at the things in his hands, and the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily.

Third Miss... so perfunctory!

Your Highness does not eat this stuff.

But he didn't dare to say it, and responded happily: "Miss Xie San, I will leave." Before leaving, he suddenly seemed to think of something and said: "By the way, Your Highness is in the private room next door."

Lu Xiang: "..."

Don't tell me specifically, thank you!

Sheng Xian said, then turned and left.

Ah Man looked at Lu Xiang helplessly: "Miss, it's delicious, try it."

Well, if the lady eats something delicious, she will tell her to eat it...

Unaware of Ah Man's careful thinking, Lu Xiang squeezed a piece with a smile, and then said to the three of Ah Man kindly: "You guys have a taste too."

Ah Man immediately started to eat happily.

As soon as he took a bite, Lu Xiang said, "Aman, that plate is yours, don't move the others."

Ah Man suddenly felt that the pastry in his mouth was not so sweet, and looked at Lu Xiang with aggrieved eyes: "Miss!!!"

Yun Zhe and Wu Yue pulled Ah Man aside with a laugh.

Wuyue lightly poked her on the forehead: "You, don't get cheap and act good. I don't restrict you to order. Do the eldest young mistress and Miss He still have something to eat?"

"Some food is better than nothing." Yun Zhe agreed.

Ah Man immediately felt relieved.

Yes, something to eat is better than nothing!
In the private room next door, Chu Jinyan was sitting opposite the third prince by the window, seeing Sheng Xian came back with a plate in his hand, Chu Qingyun immediately asked curiously: "Sheng Xian, what did you bring?"

"Huamei."

Chu Qingyun choked: "Uh..."

He looked at Chu Jinyan in shock, and said, "Eighth brother, I didn't expect you to be so good?"

Shouldn't Huamei be a snack that girls like?
Chu Jinyan raised his black eyes like frost and snow, and stared at Sheng Xian: "When will I eat and you will decide?"

Sheng Xian was reprimanded, and he was not wronged, but echoed with an indignant face: "That's why I don't want to bring it back, but the next door insists on reciprocating courtesy, and it's not easy for my subordinate to refuse. Please calm down, Your Highness. It's going back."

With that said, I'm leaving.

Chu Jinyan's face froze suddenly, next door?Reciprocity?
This is what Lu Xiang asked Sheng Xian to serve him?
Because of Chu Qingyun's presence, Sheng Xian naturally did not dare to directly say who gave it to him.
