Reborn and married to uncle, husband and wife teamed up to abuse scum.

This afternoon was very busy for Tang Rong, very tense for Aunt Cai, and very lively for Xin An.

Madam Ouyang did not invite too many people to the crab feast. The reason Xin An was able to come was not only because she sent a dress, but also because of Lin Yao's relationship.

Xin An smiled as soon as she saw Lin Yao, Yan Wenhui, and Qiu Wenyuan. She knew more than 70% of the people present, and she would be able to get to know the rest soon.

Madam Ouyang's outfit today was different from the last time she was at the Yueyue Banquet. Her hair was naturally curly, and unless she put on hair oil, it would not be as smooth as the hair of an ordinary girl. Today her hair was loose, and her long hair was braided into a pigtail on top of her head, fixed with a few pearl hairpins, which gave her a unique charm.

Seeing that she looked at her twice more, Madam Ouyang asked, "Madam Second Young Master, do you think there is something wrong?"

Xin An smiled, "I just think that the young lady's outfit today is particularly beautiful. I have seen exotic beauties with slightly curly hair in Huaijiang. The outfits of elegant ladies or beautiful girls from a small family are not suitable for them. Ordinary hairpins and rings cannot suppress their beauty. Only pearls and various gemstones can complement them."

The pearls in Madam Ouyang's hair are ordinary, but they shine brightly in her hair and make her look elegant and noble.

Madam Ouyang subconsciously touched her hair bun and felt that what Xin An said made a lot of sense. Her hair was naturally curly, and her mother said that no matter how she dressed up, she couldn't suppress the bright color and was not dignified enough. The reason she dressed up like this today was because she was really fed up with the greasiness of her hair, but the effect was better than she had imagined.

Lin Yao also said that Zhenzhu was a good match for her, and the others echoed her, partly out of compliment, and partly because they could not afford to offend the Prime Minister's honor and power.

Madam Ouyang smiled. She liked the look of the clothes Xin An gave her very much, and she liked the two little gadgets Xin An gave her even more. When she learned that she had seen someone with similar bloodline to her, she planned to visit her in person when she had time, so that she could also ask her how the exotic beauties she had seen dressed.

After chatting for a while, everyone started talking about crabs. Madam Ouyang said, "This year's crabs are from the north. They are not as big as those from the south, but they taste different. I think they are good, so I want to share them with you sisters. It's rare that you are willing to come here, and I feel particularly honored today."

It was just a joke, so no one should take it seriously. They all laughed and said that today was the day to take the TOEFL test to taste the northern crabs.

"They say that although the crabs in the north are smaller, the meat is firmer, and the roe and roe are more fragrant. I have never had the chance to taste them, but today I am lucky enough to have a taste of them."

Xin An sat with Yan Wenhui with a smile on his face, saying that he had never eaten northern crabs either. Some people who were not familiar with the Huaijiang River curiously asked if there were crabs in the Huaijiang River?

"Yes, but according to the season, you have to wait a while for crabs from Huaijiang River."

The people around smiled and nodded. There were not many people here today, and those who were invited to the banquet were all of respectable status. No one deliberately made things difficult for Xin An. When the crabs came up at noon, Madam Ouyang really let everyone do it themselves, saying it was fun. Seeing that Xin An could open the crabs like everyone else, someone asked her if eating crabs in Huaijiang was the same as in Beijing?

“Not the same.”

Xin An said with a smile: "People in Huaijiang are not so delicate when eating crabs. I am not afraid of being laughed at by you ladies. I just learned the skill of dismantling crabs yesterday. I am afraid that I will be laughed at by you today."

Seeing her frankness, everyone laughed. The fact that she could expose her shortcomings showed that she was not fussy about these details, and everyone liked her more.

Besides, everyone present here is from a real aristocratic family and has long passed the stage of seeking a sense of superiority from such trivial matters. Not to mention that Xin An eats the same way as them, even if she eats more casually, no one would say anything to her.

The banquet ended in the afternoon, and Xin An went straight back to the house. As soon as he entered the door, Nan Feng walked in quickly with a letter and presented it with both hands, "Madam, there is a letter from Huaijiang."

"Just delivered."

Xin An had a delighted look on his face. He eagerly took the letter, opened it and started reading. He read it twice before putting it back into the envelope. His father was truly a wonderful man.

Without her as a burden in this life, her father and brother would definitely have a different future.

"Aunt, my brother's marriage to Miss Zhou has been moved up to next year. They said that the old lady of the Zhou family has not been in good health, and the Zhou family wants to hold the wedding earlier."

"My brother will only be sixteen next month, so it's a bit early to get married in the first half of next year."

Aunt Wang said that getting married at sixteen was not considered early, "At the age of seventeen, those who get married early would have their children run away."

"Even in an unmarried house, there will be two women teaching sex."

"But Uncle Qin said it's not good to get married too early."

Having lived an extra lifetime, Xin An felt that good health was the most important thing. "The girl from the Zhou family will only be sixteen next year, she's too young. I'll ask Uncle Qin later. If it doesn't work out, we can get married first and consummate the marriage after a year or so."

Aunt Wang advised her that this matter was up to Xin Huan to decide, "It's not appropriate for a married woman to interfere in her brother's sexual affairs."

"At most I can talk to my mother quietly about this matter. Can I really interfere with my brother and sister-in-law's affairs?"

Xin An laughed and said, "If that's the case, how annoying would I be?"

Aunt Wang was relieved, and Xin An asked her to pay attention to buying some decent betrothal gifts, "As a sister, I can give some betrothal gifts to my brother, okay?"

"Then you have to tell your uncle."

"That's natural."

Although he was spending his own money, Tang Mo should also have the right to know.

Aunt Cuiping has officially moved to Luoyan Pavilion. Upon learning that Xin An will accompany the old lady to the palace to pay respects to the empress dowager tomorrow, she comes to tell her about the palace rules and the masters of each palace in order to ensure that she will know how to pay respects when she meets them.

"Luckily Aunt Cuiping came, otherwise I wouldn't know what to do."

"Of course I will learn the rules, but please, aunt, accompany me to the palace tomorrow."

Cuiping agreed, and then began to formally teach Xin An the rules of entering the palace, where to get off the car, where to wait, and explained the route of paying respects clearly.

According to her status, she was very polite when meeting those people.

He talked about how to perform etiquette when meeting the Empress Dowager, how to pay respects, how to sit if the Empress Dowager asked him to sit, how to serve tea when the Empress Dowager offered him a seat, etc. He went through every detail for more than half an hour.

"Tomorrow morning, Madam, drink a cup of tea and a piece of dessert. Remember not to eat too much and drink as little water as possible. It is inconvenient to undress in the palace and it is easy to be impolite."

"The clothes you wear tomorrow don't need to be complicated, just elegant and decent. The headwear should be exquisite but light. If the Queen Mother doesn't approve of a sedan chair, it will take half an hour to get from the palace gate to Fengwu Palace. Wearing too many jewelry will make you look awkward."

Many people who enter the palace for the first time would choose to dress up formally, but in the end their makeup would be smudged and their hair would be messy, which was very rude and embarrassing.

Chunyang and Chunlu began to get nervous at this moment and couldn't help but interrupt, "Aunt Cuiping, please help us choose the clothes and jewelry that the young lady will wear tomorrow. We are unsure."

I thought it was such an honor to be able to enter the palace, but why is it so painful?
