Mingjin and Xu Zhaojun said nothing.

But they seemed to understand something to each other.

Especially when Mingjin held Xu Zhaojun's hand and Xu Zhaojun shook his hand back, they both wanted to laugh and cry from the bottom of their hearts.

I just didn't dare let others see it, so I suppressed the emotions in my heart.

Just looking at each other.

"Look at the two of them. They seem like they grew up together and are so close."

Although Princess Fuhua didn't know what Mingjin was thinking, it was the first time she saw her precious granddaughter and the first time she took the initiative to hold someone's hand.

I couldn't help laughing when I was stunned.

Cui was also very surprised.

But when she heard the laughter of the elderly around her, she also laughed: "This is because they still remember the friendship from their childhood."

Princess Fuhua looked at the two of them with a loving face.

But I felt more and more regretful in my heart.

If this child could marry Hengger, with her abilities, she could not only help Hengger take care of the household, but also get along well with Yanyan.

Ugh.

It's still a step too late.

Pity.

Princess Fuhua sighed again in her heart.

"Okay, don't just stand there with us. There's still some time before lunch, Yanyan——"

Princess Fuhua told Mingjin: "Take your sister Xu and your cousin out for a walk. I'll have someone call you when it's time for dinner."

Mingjin nodded in agreement.

"Sister Xu, let's come in." Ming Jin greeted Xu Zhaojun with a smile.

Xu Zhaojun had a lot to say to Mingjin.

Naturally, she would not have any objection.

Zhou Shuangyue felt a little embarrassed when she saw Xu Zhaojun.

She had already heard from her mother that her aunt had been looking for a date with the Xu family but had not been successful.

She is not very familiar with Miss Xu.

In recent years, Miss Xu has rarely participated in banquets in the capital in order to take care of Mrs. Xu and handle household affairs.

She has been gone for several years and I haven't seen her.

But Zhou Shuangyue knew that Miss Xu was a smart and decisive person. Even her usually strict mother praised her a lot.

Now we meet face to face.

Even if Zhou Shuangyue didn't want to admit it, she could not deny that this sister from the Xu family was indeed very nice.

Better than her.

No wonder my aunt chose Miss Xu instead of agreeing to her.

If she married her cousin, it would definitely be a good story.

Pity.

Zhou Shuangyue felt sorry for her cousin.

"This is my cousin, Zhou Shuangyue." Ming Jin "introduced" Xu Zhaojun who was standing beside him.

Of course she didn't really recommend it.

But it was to remind Zhou Shuangyue that it was time to come back to her senses.

Xu Zhaojun also knew what Zhou Shuangyue was thinking.

I knew it in my previous life.

But she liked Zhou Shuangyue very much, and they had never had any quarrels before.

After exchanging a glance with Ming Jin, she smiled and greeted Zhou Shuangyue first: "Miss Zhou."

Zhou Shuangyue came back to her senses when she heard Mingjin's voice.

At this time, Xu Zhaojun greeted her.

Seeing her gentle face and smiling expression again, Zhou Shuangyue couldn't help but secretly blame herself in her heart and dared not to think about it anymore.

She also returned the greeting softly and called out, "Miss Xu."

Then she introduced her other sisters to Xu Zhaojun.

one by one.

He recognized all the ladies in the room.

Those who came today are all people of status in the city. Except Ming Jin, everyone else knows him, regardless of their relationship with him.

Mingjin has the highest status among them and is the host, so naturally they would not ignore Mingjin's face.

A group of people walked out together.

Mingyao is not here today, but Mingsheng and Mingrong are here.

There were too many people, and Ming Jin naturally couldn't take care of them all by himself, so Ming Sheng took over some of the work and also helped to accompany and introduce them.

She hadn't done much of this before.

It was Mingjin who encouraged her to speak more and speak boldly.

My aunt has already spoken to my father.

My father also promised my aunt that he would keep an eye on her.

When she ran to thank Seventh Sister yesterday, Seventh Sister taught her something.

Seventh sister asked her to help accompany her today and also asked her to take the initiative to talk to others.

Accompanying is not a difficult task for Ming Sheng.

But taking the initiative to talk to others...

This is really too difficult for Ming Sheng.

She had never done this before.

In the past, whether she was going out with Mingyao and her mother, or with Mingrong, she was always the invisible one.

Now she is asked to take charge on her own, Ming Sheng naturally doesn't dare.

But Seventh Sister said...

"Do you want to stay behind others for the rest of your life?"

"You're still single now, so it's okay, but when you get married, will you still have to hide behind others like this?"

"If you want others to think highly of you, then you must have the ability to be thought highly of."

……

Although Seventh Sister's words were harsh, they also came as a wake-up call to her, waking her up from her confusion.

Seventh sister is right.

She can still hide for now.

But in the future, when I become the wife of someone else's family, do I have to continue like this, hiding behind others like a quail?

She... doesn't want to!

She also didn't want her seventh sister to be disappointed in her.

Therefore, the one who accompanied the introduction today and instructed the servants to arrange cakes and tea was not Ming Jin, but Ming Sheng.

"The Fifth Miss has changed a lot."

There were voices coming from both sides, but this sentence still reached Mingjin's ears clearly.

This doesn't mean much.

Even if others hear it, they won't think anything of it.

After all, anyone who knows Ming Sheng can feel that Ming Sheng has changed a lot today.

But Mingjin knew the hidden meaning behind Xu Zhaojun's words.

She smiled and glanced at Xu Zhaojun.

After meeting the smile in her eyes, Ming Jin smiled and replied, "No one taught her before, and she didn't dare to do that."

“She’s actually very smart.”

Ming Jin said as he looked at Ming Sheng who was introducing others in front of him.

Her face was a little red, probably because of nervousness, and her voice was slow, but she was still trying hard to speak and do things, trying to maintain relationships with the people around her.

Ming Jin was very relieved: "As long as she is well taken care of, she will be no worse than anyone else."

Xu Zhaojun also looked at Ming Sheng.

Hearing this, she also smiled and said, "She has always been very good."

She married Ming Jingheng at the beginning.

Although she didn't have much contact with Ming Sheng, she could still feel Ming Sheng's kindness.

There were several times when she was "secretly harmed" by Ming Yao, and it was Ming Sheng who reminded her and told her what Zhou Zhaoru really liked and what she should avoid eating.

otherwise--

She had long forgotten how many times she would be punished by Zhou Zhaoru.

However, she didn't intend to tell Mingjin these words.

past.

Anyway, this is someone I will never meet in this life, so there is no need to talk to him more.

"When did you come back?" She continued chatting with Mingjin.

Ming Jin knew what she was asking and answered, "The day I returned to the capital from Yingzhou."

At this moment, everyone just arrived at the back garden of Anyuan Marquis Mansion.

The Anyuan Marquisate spent a lot of money on Mingjin's birthday. In order to please and make the guests at the banquet happy, Princess Fuhua also had people buy a lot of expensive flowers.

Among them are several pots of rare orchids and chrysanthemums.

Now a group of people gathered together to look at the flowers.

Mingjin and Xu Zhaojun kept some distance from them and were not worried that what they said would be heard.

The two stopped where they were.

Mingjin looked at the lake in front of him and the peach forest opposite the lake.

At this time of year, the peach blossoms have faded, but there are still some fresh peach fruits hanging under the green peach leaves.

The red fruits and green leaves look very fresh.

Mingjin remembered that she liked eating peaches.

She called Chunyu and asked her to ask someone to pick a basket of peaches so that she could bring it back to Xu Zhaojun.

Xu Zhaojun heard her instructions and knew what she was going to do.

Her expression softened.

"You still remember."

"It hasn't been a few years, so my memory shouldn't be that bad." Ming Jin said and looked at Xu Zhaojun with amusement.

But because of her words, Xu Zhaojun gradually restrained the smile on her face.

"you……"

Her expression gradually became serious.

"What happened to you later?" she asked Ming Jin in a low voice.

When she died in her previous life, Ming Jin had already married Gu Chang Xuan. Although their relationship was not good, after all, a night of marriage meant a hundred nights of love...

She thought she would have a good ending.

After all, the Fourth Prince seemed to be a very nice person.

But listening to her words...

Didn't she live long?

why?

Sick? Or just like her?

Xu Zhaojun's usually gentle face with a smile on it now became extremely dark, and even her red lips were tightly pursed.

Mingjin saw her like this and started laughing.

She said softly, "Sister Xu, don't be so serious. I'm fine now, right?"

She smiled and comforted Xu Zhaojun.

Xu Zhaojun still looked at her silently, obviously wanting an answer.

Ming Jin had no choice but to not hide it. He looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he lowered his voice and spoke briefly, "Later, Gu Changxuan ascended the throne and married Ming Yao as his queen."

Xu Zhaojun's eyes widened and even her breathing became rapid.

She looked at Mingjin in disbelief.

"How could he..."

She almost screamed out loud, but fortunately she reacted in time.

Fortunately, the voices in front were loud and everyone was looking at the flowers, and no one noticed them.

But Xu Zhaojun was still afraid of being discovered, so she tried hard to control her emotions.

Mingjin couldn't help but smile when he saw her like this.

She didn't expect Xu Zhaojun's reaction to be so big.

What if she told her.

She was later taken prisoner, and considering the Ming family's attitude toward her, no one knew what would become of her.

But Mingjin didn't want to talk about these disappointing things. To her, those things were already in the past.

What's more, today is a happy day.

"Where's my sister?"

"When did sister wake up?"

Xu Zhaojun knew that she was deliberately trying to change the subject.

Her emotions had not yet calmed down, but she didn't want to talk about these things anymore, which made her sad. After taking a breath and calming down a little, she said to Mingjin in a hoarse voice: "Three years ago, my mother had a serious illness. I fainted from exhaustion from taking care of her, and when I woke up, I became like this."

She always felt at that time that it was all a big dream.

I feel anxious every day.

I was afraid that as soon as I closed my eyes, this beautiful dream would disappear.

Later I came to terms with it.

These days now were all stolen by her.

Savor every day you spend.

Enjoy life while you can, take good care of your parents and family while you are alive, and make up for all the regrets of your past life.

But she didn't expect that Mingjin would be like her.

She actually didn't know that they met on the street that day until she heard her mother talk about some things about the Marquis' Mansion. She always felt that Ming Jin in this life was different from the Ming Jin she knew in the previous life.

She kept it in mind.

I wanted to test it out quietly, but I didn't expect Ming Jin to just reveal it directly.

Looking at the beautiful girl in front of her, although Xu Zhaojun still felt reluctant and sad, she was more relieved.

Fortunately.

She lived her life again.

They all lived again.

"cousin?"

Over there, Zhou Shuangyue had finished looking at the flowers and was about to talk to the people around her, but when she turned around, she found that not only her cousin, but even the young lady from the Xu family was gone.

She walked through the crowd and looked outside, and saw her cousin and Miss Xu standing not far away.

"Why are you standing here?"

Zhou Shuangyue said this and walked towards the two of them with a smile.

After approaching, she couldn't help but say to Mingjin: "Cousin, those pots of chrysanthemums are so beautiful, especially the pink one. I have never seen such a beautiful pink one."

"If you like it, just take it home."

Seeing Zhou Shuangyue's eyes widened in surprise, Ming Jin continued with a smile: "But we have to wait until the banquet is over. If I take him away now, I won't be able to explain to those ladies."

"No, no need. I just like it, I don't want it."

Zhou Shuangyue's face turned red again and she felt embarrassed.

Ming Jin smiled and said, "Let's go and take a look."

She said to Xu Zhaojun who was beside her.

Xu Zhaojun nodded to her.

The three of them walked forward together.

When the others saw them coming, they smiled and made way for them, inviting them to look ahead.

Mingjin had seen this flower a long time ago.

She is always indifferent to these things.

At this time, he was just accompanying Xu Zhaojun to take a look.

She remembered that Xu Zhaojun also liked chrysanthemums.

But just as he walked to the front and hadn't taken a good look at it, someone came over in a hurry and said, "Princess, the eldest princess asked you to go back. Princess Ancheng is here!"

heard this title.

Not only Ming Jin, but even Xu Zhaojun's expression suddenly turned cold.
