I was chased by my sickly junior brother who had two lives
Chapter 252 Being Envied
Inside the Jinhua Building, the lights are bright, as if the Milky Way has fallen into the mortal world. A grand banquet is being held in this dazzling glory.
Chen Jia walked gracefully into the banquet hall. She was wearing a lake blue brocade dress. The lake blue was just like the quiet and deep lake water. Under the caress of the light, it was emitting a subtle and charming luster.
As soon as he showed up, many ladies gathered around him, like the moon surrounded by stars. A lady in a gorgeous brocade robe smiled and said, "Madam Chen, the news that you and Lord Chen provided disaster relief in the Yellow River flood area has now spread throughout the capital. You two took the trouble to go to the disaster area in person, and your good deeds are really admirable. I heard that during the disaster, Lord Chen commanded and dispatched the troops in a decisive manner, showing his heroic qualities; and Madam Chen, you personally comforted the refugees and distributed food, and your compassion is touching. Such a virtuous couple is rare in the world."
Chen Jia smiled slightly and responded modestly: "Madam, you are too kind. I am just trying my best to help, and I can't bear to see the people suffer. Chen Jue and I are just doing our job. We don't deserve such praise." Her voice was soft and gentle, like a yellow oriole singing out of a valley, but it also revealed a firmness and composure.
Another lady went on to say, "Master Chen is young and promising, and has great prestige in the court. Now he has made great contributions to disaster relief. Madam Chen, you are also a lady from a famous family, gentle and virtuous, and you complement Master Chen very well. This is a heaven-sent marriage, which is really enviable."
After Chen Jia exchanged a few pleasantries with them, she was pulled to sit among a group of noble ladies to chat. They talked about the latest fashions, and one lady said, "The silk shop has just released a new pink silk, which is as light and thin as a cicada's wing, and is perfect for summer wear."
Another person added: "I think the emerald green brocade is more unique. It will be very beautiful if a few butterflies are embroidered on it."
They also talked about their exquisite makeup. A lady with gorgeous makeup said, "It took me a long time to draw my eyebrows today. I used eyebrow ink from the Western Regions." Everyone praised her.
There were also interesting things in each mansion, such as which son passed the imperial examination, and which daughter learned to play the zither. Chen Jia occasionally interjected a few appropriate words. Her words were elegant and her analysis was clear and logical, which made everyone laugh. They all felt that talking with her was like being in the spring breeze.
After chatting for a while, Chen Jia felt a little tired, so she stood up and left, wanting to find a quiet place to rest. She walked along the quiet corridor, the railings of the corridor were carved with exquisite patterns, and there was a palace lantern hanging at intervals, and the lampshade of the palace lantern was painted with exquisite flowers and birds.
I came to a courtyard by accident. The courtyard was full of various flowers. It was in bloom at this time, with colorful flowers and fragrant aroma.
In the corner of the courtyard, Chen Jia saw a familiar figure. The woman was wearing a black suit with delicate patterns embroidered with red silk thread on the cuffs and neckline, which showed her heroic spirit while retaining her feminine beauty.
She wore a black belt with a silver buckle around her waist, which was simple and elegant. She was agile, her steps were steady and powerful, and she looked very heroic. It was Sima Fei'er who I hadn't seen for a long time. Sima Fei'er also saw Chen Jia, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. She walked forward quickly.
"Sister Chen Jia!" Sima Feier shouted, her voice clear and loud, filled with the joy of reunion after a long separation.
Chen Jiayi was delighted: "Sister Fei'er, it's really you. I haven't seen you for a long time, and you look even more heroic."
Sima Fei'er bowed her head slightly, with a trace of gratitude in her eyes: "Sister Chen Jia, if you hadn't helped me back then, I would have been in despair. At that time, I was young and ignorant, and acted rashly. If it weren't for you teaching me carefully, guiding me, and giving me the opportunity to correct my mistakes, how could I be where I am today? Now I can stand here as a female general and attend this banquet, all thanks to your kindness."
Chen Jia gently held Sima Fei'er's hand: "Fei'er, don't say that. I just gave you a little push when you were confused."
Sima Fei'er smiled proudly: "Sister, I can come to the banquet this time because of my military exploits on the frontier. I led the soldiers to resist foreign enemies and protect the peace of the people on the frontier. This is a new beginning for me and also a ray of hope for my own survival."
Chen Jia nodded and praised: "You are right, Fei'er. Women should not be bound by constraints. You are the best example."
Sima Feier looked at Chen Jia with a hint of curiosity in her eyes: "Sister, how is your relationship with Master Chen now? I heard that you are living a very sweet life in the Duke's Mansion."
Chen Jia's face flushed: "Well, Xiaojue treats me very well. We support each other and face everything in life together."
Sima Feier joked, "Seeing how happy you are, I feel relieved. You will grow old together with Master Chen and enjoy eternal happiness. May your love be like the flowers in this garden, blooming forever."
Chen Jia glanced at her in annoyance: "Little girl, you are really good at teasing me. What about you? Do you have someone you like?"
Sima Fei'er blushed slightly and shook her head: "Sister, I am now devoted to military affairs and have no such thoughts for the time being. I am willing to dedicate my youth and passion to the cause of defending my country."
Chen Jia smiled and said, "Okay, when you meet the right person, I will help you find the right person. I believe there will be an excellent man who can appreciate your unique charm and be with you."
As the two were talking, the melodious sound of stringed instruments came from afar. Sima Feier said, "Sister, the banquet is probably about to enter the second half, let's go over there."
Chen Jia nodded, and went back to the banquet hall hand in hand with Sima Fei'er. The banquet hall was even more lively at this time, with dancers dancing in the center, as light as swallows. They were wearing colorful dance costumes, which were decorated with various pearls and jades, and flashed dazzling light as they danced. Chen Jia and Sima Fei'er found a seat and sat down, continuing to enjoy the joyful atmosphere of the banquet.
A lady saw Sima Fei'er and said in surprise: "Isn't this General Sima? I have heard of your great name for a long time. Seeing you today, I can see that women are as good as men. Your heroic deeds in the frontier have long been spread throughout the capital. We women are proud of you."
Sima Fei'er stood up and saluted: "Madam, you are too kind. I am just fulfilling my duty as a soldier. Protecting the border is my unshirkable mission. I just did what I should do."
Everyone praised Sima Fei'er's heroic deeds, and Sima Fei'er responded modestly. Chen Jia watched from the side and felt happy for her.
During this banquet, Chen Jia and Sima Fei'er's reunion added a special touch to this already joyful and prosperous occasion. They recalled the past with deep emotion, and at the same time, they were full of expectations for the future.
