Fang Zhirou looked up suddenly when she heard this, her eyes full of surprise, "Your Highness, is this true?"

"Ah."

"Brother Crown Prince, the Crown Princess' birthday party is about to begin."

After being reminded by the Second Prince, the Crown Prince realized that the young men and women who were originally standing here were no longer there.

Then he said, "Let's go."

The garden in the mansion was already filled with tables and chairs. Because of the differences between men and women, the seats between men and women were separated by curtains. Fang Shiwan greeted Mo Qitian and then found two seats to sit down.

Mo Qitian also sat down in the seat closest to her.

The night wind in the dark made two clicks of the tongue. His prince had really changed, to the point where he could hardly recognize him.

Ye Xin followed behind Mo Qitian and sighed in his heart as well.

The prince now has someone to care about, and he doesn't have to be alone anymore.

"Miss, there are so many people here."

"Yeah, a lot of people." Fang Shiwan mocked in his heart, there were also many people who tried to curry favor with the rich and powerful.

As they were talking, Fang Zhirou also came to the seat.

Fang Shiwan looked at her, stood up and changed his position.

Some people who knew both of them were whispering privately, wondering if the two sisters were not getting along.

Fang Zhirou felt a little embarrassed and clenched her hands into fists under the table. She tried to tell herself not to be angry.

Then, she put on an innocent look and looked at the other noble ladies beside her.

"Ms. Xie, I...my sister has always been like this. I...can I sit here?"

The woman heard her words and saw what had just happened. She frowned slightly and said, "As you please. Today we are all here to attend the birthday banquet for the Crown Prince's Consort."

Fang Zhirou showed a grateful expression, which made many women present sympathize with her.

At this time, the party was in full swing and the protagonist appeared.

After everyone sat down one by one, they looked over and saw a woman dressed elegantly and gracefully walking towards them, accompanied by a man and a woman who was about the same age as Fang Shiwan.

I guess those are her husband and children.

"Everyone, today is my wife's birthday. Thank you for taking the time to visit Pei's residence. Pei would like to thank you all."

"Everyone enjoy your meals today, please don't save money for Pei."

As Prince Pei spoke, he bowed and gestured to everyone, his manners full of sincerity.

This one sentence caused the whole audience to burst into laughter, and everyone was praising Prince Pei for his humor and generosity.

The originally tense atmosphere suddenly became lively.

"Have a banquet——"

As soon as Master Pei finished speaking, the maids brought tea and dishes to the table, which was a full banquet of Manchu and Han cuisine.

Fang Shiwan's mouth was watering as she looked at the table full of dishes. She had come to the ancient times and had been dealing with those people, and finally she saw the dishes of the famous families.

Wow, it looks delicious.

"Miss, please eat less later."

Ziyun behind her saw the young lady's intention and hurried forward to remind her.

Fang Shiwan was petrified. She hadn't even eaten yet, and her maid was already worrying about her?

"Miss, everyone here has status. You are now the fiancée of the King Qi. If someone sees you, I guess there will be a lot of gossip."

Fang Shiwan waved his hand and whispered, "Ziyun, it's okay. I'll eat a little of each. I won't eat too much. Don't worry."

Some of the noble ladies around him looked at Fang Shiwan with some contempt.

It's embarrassing to be with such unpresentable people. He's so happy just with a table of food.

"Huh, isn't it just a table of food? You look like a starving ghost."

The woman next to him, who was wearing emerald green clothes, showed a look of disdain and rolled her eyes.

Ziyun behind her reminded her, "Miss, this is the daughter of the Minister of Rites, her name is Zhang Jingmei."

Fang Shiwan smiled slightly, picked up the braised pig's trotter in front of him with chopsticks, and said slowly: "Don't eat it, you might as well starve to death."

"you..."

Fang Shiwan buried his head in the food and found it delicious. Although the ancient times were not very developed, there were delicious foods everywhere.

Today's birthday banquet is bound to cause some commotion. How can she appreciate her half-sister's masterpiece if she doesn't have enough food to eat?

Seeing Fang Shiwan ignoring her, Zhang Jingmei said angrily, "Why are you pretending? I'll eat you to death."

Ziyun wanted to go forward, but was stunned for a long time when Fang Shiwan suddenly stuffed a steamed bun into her hand.

"Ziyun, you must be hungry, eat."

Zhang Jingmei laughed at her kindness to the servants.

"Haha, a legitimate daughter treats servants in such an attitude. At the birthday banquet, she didn't care about her face. The master didn't finish his meal, but let the servants eat the master's food. It's really ridiculous and uneducated."

"That's true. I didn't expect that there would be such a well-educated woman in the Shangshu Mansion. It's really a joke."

Fang Zhirou, who was on the opposite side, heard a few noble ladies ridiculing Fang Shiwan. When no one was watching, she smiled, and then put on a worried look.

"You...you shouldn't say that about my elder sister. She didn't mean it. She was always like this when she was at home. She forgot that it was the birthday party for the Crown Prince's Consort today."

When everyone heard that she usually behaved like this at home, they got used to it.

Zhang Jingmei looked at Fang Zhirou and knew that Fang Shiwan had bullied her at home a lot. She then said indignantly, "Fang Zhirou, don't be afraid. She won't dare to bully you here today."

Fang Shiwan curled her lips. She hadn't been out for ten years, and when she came out and met these people, they said that she bullied Fang Zhirou. It was obvious how she promoted herself outside on weekdays.

"Thank you, Miss Zhang."

Just when Zhang Jingmei was feeling smug and Fang Shiwan was being scolded by herself and Fang Zhirou, the water on the table suddenly poured all over her.

She opened her mouth and screamed.

"what--"

"Fang Shiwan, you bitch, you did it on purpose."

When everyone heard the voice, they all looked over here.

Fang Shiwan also stood up and looked at Zhang Jingmei who looked panicked, finding it somewhat ridiculous.

"Ms. Zhang, are you scolding yourself?"

"I was scolding you."

Fang Shiwan scratched his ear and said, "Oh, you can just scold yourself, why are you so angry?"

"You—Fang Shiwan, you did it on purpose."

The maid beside her was so scared that she quickly knelt on the ground and said, "Miss, I'm sorry, it's my fault. I accidentally spilled the water."

"What?" Zhang Jingmei suddenly lowered her head and looked at the cup on Fang Shiwan's table.

I saw that the water inside was full and there was no sign of overflowing, but the cup on my table had fallen sideways on the table at some point.

She kicked her maid angrily and said, "You bitch, you made my clothes wet."

The maid fell to the ground after being kicked, but she knelt down again in an instant, "Miss, please spare me, I didn't mean it. Just now when I was pouring water for you, you bumped into me, and I accidentally spilled the water."

"Still quibbling."

Zhang Jingmei yelled again and raised her foot to kick.

"stop!"
