Reborn to abuse the scumbag, the demon queen destroyed her ex-husband's entire family
Chapter 20 Brothers meet
In fact, what Xiao Ruge said to Lin was just a suggestion. If Xiao Jinzhi didn't want to, it would be useless even if she said a lot of things.
So after she mentioned it to Mrs. Lin that day, she never mentioned it again. She took Xiao Mingyue and Xiao Qianqian out to buy headwear and clothes, spending more than a thousand taels of silver from Old Lady Xiao.
Thinking of the pain on Old Madam Xiao's face after hearing that so much money had been spent, Xiao Ruge wanted to laugh.
On the day of the flower-viewing banquet, Lin went out with the three pretty girls.
Yao personally greeted them at the door. When she saw Xiao Ruge holding Bai Zhi's hand and getting off the carriage, she hurried over.
“This is Ruge, right?”
Xiao Ruge immediately smiled and bowed to Yao, "Ruge greets Madam!"
"Oh, good, good, get up! You really look like your mother!"
Yao was a straightforward person who said whatever came to her mind, otherwise she wouldn't have embarrassed Old Madam Xiao at the last garden party.
Thinking of her mother who followed her father, Xiao Ruge's eyes darkened, but the smile on her face remained unchanged, which made Yao feel guilty.
"Look at my mouth. I actually said something that makes you sad. Come on, let's go inside and talk!"
Yao didn't even look at the other people in the Xiao family. Originally, she had only invited Xiao Ruge today, so she took Xiao Ruge and walked towards the gate of the mansion.
When the nanny who came to deliver the invitation that day saw her, she smiled and took Lin's arm.
"Don't take it to heart, Madam. Our Madam is just such an impatient person."
"No, I think the general's wife is very decisive and dashing!"
Lin also hated those who beat around the bush, so she smiled and praised Yao to the nanny.
The maid smiled even more deeply after hearing this. "My surname is Jiang. If you don't mind, you can call me Old Lady Jiang. If you need anything later, just let me know!"
Nanny Jiang held Lin's arm and led the others inside.
Lin also saw it just now. Nanny Jiang was standing next to Yao. She must be Yao's right-hand man.
It was her honor to be received by Nanny Jiang, so she said she dared not.
Since the Yao family is hosting a flower-viewing banquet, there must be flowers.
There is a large garden in the backyard of the general's mansion, with all kinds of flowers in it. Now is the time when flowers are in full bloom, so Yao held the banquet in the water pavilion next to the garden.
Opposite the waterside pavilion, there is a rockery pavilion, which is also quite large. Zhao Qing’s two sons are entertaining their friends there today.
There is a lake between the two places. There is a moon gate where the courtyards are connected, guarded by a loyal servant. Although the two sides can see each other from a distance, they cannot communicate with each other, which is considered to avoid suspicion.
Yao took Xiao Ruge and introduced her to the ladies in the pavilion. When they heard that this was Xiao Ruge, they were all curious and inquisitive about her.
Xiao Ruge pretended not to see those looks. After politely greeting everyone one by one, she followed Miss Zhao to the garden to appreciate the flowers.
Because all the ladies brought their daughters, the garden was very lively with many beautiful girls.
Xiao Mingyue went to talk to someone else, while Xiao Ruge took Xiao Qianqian to talk to Miss Zhao, but her eyes secretly glanced at the pavilion opposite.
She remembered that in her previous life, Yao had also sent her an invitation, but at that time she was entangled by Lu Yu, and when she heard that he would also come, she did not come.
That time, Xu brought Xiao Mingyue and Xiao Qianqian with her. She heard that Xiao Qianqian accidentally fell into the water and was rescued by General Zhao's nephew Zhao Qingshan, so she married him.
Because this incident disrupted Old Madam Xiao's plan, she called Lin and Xiao Jinzhi over and gave them a good scolding.
However, they did not expect that a marriage that everyone was not optimistic about at the beginning would turn out to be the happiest one among the three.
But this time, Xiao Ruge did not intend to let Xiao Qianqian be like in her previous life, where she fell into the water, was rescued, and had no choice but to marry.
She wants Xiao Qianqian to marry her future husband in a grand ceremony!
His eyes kept searching in the pavilion, but Zhao Qingshan didn't see anything. Instead, he accidentally met a pair of deep and gloomy pupils.
It’s Mu Gu. I didn’t expect he would come too.
When he moved his eyes to the side, he saw the showy Duanmu Ling holding a folding fan.
This person also saw Xiao Ruge, and a big smile immediately appeared on the corner of his mouth. He waved at Xiao Ruge and greeted her.
Xiao Ruge just glared at him, ignoring his existence, and pulled Xiao Qianqian and Miss Zhao away from there.
Duanmu Ling waved his folding fan twice and said to Mu Gu with a smile, "I didn't expect Xiao Ruge to come too. I heard that the Third Prince and the Fifth Prince are here today. Do you think they will show their courtesy to Xiao Ruge?"
Mu Gu really thought about it seriously. He stroked his chin and thought, "Third brother might show his affection to Xiao Ruge, but he already has a wife. Even if he asks for her, Xiao Ruge can only be a concubine."
"Doesn't the Fifth Prince still have a wife? If the Fifth Prince said he wanted to marry Xiao Ruge, would she marry him?"
Duanmu Ling's face was full of gossip, and although he was a little sloppy, his elegant dark blue long gown made him look extraordinarily handsome, attracting the attention of many rich ladies in the garden.
On the other hand, Mu Gu was dressed in a dome-gray suit, and the most valuable thing on him was the jade crown on his head.
Although he has a good appearance, his cold eyes make him look a little gloomy, and his temperament is far inferior to Duanmu Ling.
Looking at Duanmu Ling who was like a colorful peacock, constantly changing his poses to look cool, Mu Gu glanced at him coldly and brought up another topic.
"I heard that the Prime Minister's wife is looking for a future daughter-in-law for you?"
When this was mentioned, Duanmu Ling's face fell.
"We are here to drink today, can you please not say such spoiling things?"
As the two were talking, Zhao Yuanshan, the second son of the Zhao family, led Lu Yu over.
Zhao Yuanshan introduced both parties. When he heard that there was a seventh prince here, a gleam of light flashed across Lu Yu's eyes, but he quickly concealed it.
But even so, this subtle expression was noticed by Mu Gu.
He looked at Lu Yu calmly, and felt that this man always had a competitive spirit when talking to him.
As they were talking, several other princes and sons arrived. Each of them was a talented man. They gathered in the pavilion and talked loudly, which soon attracted the attention of the young ladies in the garden.
Xiao Ruge pulled Xiao Qianqian to hide behind some flower trees. While eating snacks, she looked at everyone in the pavilion and couldn't help laughing.
In his previous life, Lu Yu did not meet his brothers so soon. Now, he didn’t know if it was because of his rebirth, but he met them earlier than expected.
Xiao Qianqian was eating glutinous rice cakes in small bites. When she saw Xiao Ruge peeking at the opposite side, she couldn't help but whispered, "Second sister, who are you looking at?"
Xiao Ruge smiled and said, "No, she was just looking around. Look over there, who do you think your fourth sister is looking at?"
