Since last time, Xue Mei almost exposed that Pan's chant "fake Buddha" and she went to pay tribute every month, Pan's chastity has found a reason not to see her.

I saw you this time.

薛湄不会请脉,只知道潘氏的确是感冒了.

感冒只要不发烧,还是别用药为好,熬一熬还能锻炼下免疫力.

“……别过了你病气,快回去吧.”潘氏很虚弱,掩住了口鼻,不太想见薛湄.

薛湄也演不好这虚假的母女情深,说了几句场面话:“娘您好好休息.想要什么,如果公中不方便的,派人去告诉我一声,我买了给您送过来.”

“你有心了.”潘氏眼睛弯了弯,“快去吧,这大年下的,你别从我这里过了病,回头玩不痛快.”

Xue Mei did not say that she wanted to go out for the New Year.

But, it's casual.

She was even too lazy to guess Pan’s thoughts. Anyway, she knew that Pan would not harm her, and at most she would ignore her.

After leaving Zhihuai Pavilion, Hongluan, the maid who followed Xue Mei, refused to go back to the yard and insisted on taking Xue Mei to the back garden for a walk.

“……大小姐,咱们晒晒日头,不用着急回去.”红鸾道.

Ancient people also knew that solar light can kill sterilization.

It is good to get out of the patient's room and bask in the sun.

Xue Meiyi gave her.

她们逛了半个时辰,回来时全身暖融融的.

戴妈妈和修竹,彩鸢正在拆名帖,都是京都贵女们送给薛湄的,邀请薛湄春节去赴宴.

高门富户,春节宴席在腊月初就会安排妥当,然后下名帖.

The Xue family also had a banquet. The third wife specially sent someone to tell Xue Mei that the fifth day of the first lunar month is the day for girls to entertain their friends, and their sisters could invite their friends over.

只是,要在腊月二十八之前,把名帖告诉三夫人,三夫人好预备.

“一天要收五六十张.”彩鸢在旁笑道,“二小姐那边,一天不过十几张是咱们大小姐厉害.”

The maids had already known this news in private.

谁接到的请柬多,谁就有面子.当然,谁邀请来的人多,谁更有面子.

Often, it is not a real lady, and the banquet in the main courtyard cannot be done.

For example, in the past, Xue Yutan, she never succeeded once.

因为,日子只有那么几日,但门第多如牛毛.

Xue Mei can't become the host, so she will be a guest. She needs to choose a suitable one and participate in one or two games.

"What do you do when you see these things? Just go to Wen Jin." Xue Mei smiled.

Wen Jin can make a move.

Although she is a little stupid, she is beautiful and has a very rich family. All the girls are willing to surround her.

“延平郡主给我下请帖了吗?”薛湄又问,抱起了在一旁啃名帖的胖妞,轻轻将它放在膝头.

Cai Yuan found one from a group of invitations. It was relatively low-key and luxurious, not ostentatious but not simple, which was in line with Princess Yanping’s character: “Yes, it is the seventh day of the first lunar month.”

Wen Jin's banquet was the third day of the first lunar month.

"These two companies, please reply to my famous posts." Xue Mei smiled, "Don't throw away the others."

The maids were in a little embarrassed.

修竹沉吟片刻:“大小姐,还有三位公主的邀请呢.”

Among the current emperor's daughters, only three have married and opened a house.

In other words, Princess Baoqing also invited her.

This guy has no idea what he has to do.

"If I go to a certain princess, I will offend the other two. Are the three of them going to be staggered?" Xue Mei asked with a smile.

Not likely.

There are only a few good days for the first lunar month.

Sometimes, when princesses compete in each other, they may choose the same day. Whoever you give you face is to take the lead.

The forces behind you and the forces involved in the princess will be mixed together, which is a signal, and the political purpose is very obvious.

This is complicated.

"No, the three princesses are all on the fourth day of the first lunar month, and it's a good day." said the maid.

Xue Mei shrugged.

Isn't this all right?

Xue Mei didn't touch any of the princesses.

They are all Xiao Jingcheng's niece.

If they dare not get along with Xue Mei, Xue Mei will go to complain to his son, and then the princesses will have to cry and call her ancestors.

When going to Princess Yanping, Xue Mei was not just attending the banquet. She had a more important purpose.

"Have you sent a New Year gift to my cousin Baochen?" After the invitation was put away, Xue Mei asked Dai's mother.

Xi Baochen is the original owner’s best friend, and Xue Mei also likes her very much.

"Sent." Dai's mother smiled, "This is a gift list, take a look."

Xue Mei took it.

The gift was made by Dai's mother.

There are six pearl flowers in Picking Yuxuan, which is the kind that makes the fourth lady Xue Qin envious.

Zhai Yuxuan only made fifty flowers this time, because this kind of colorful diamond silk is extremely rare, Xiao Mingyu could only get two pieces, and the rest was sent to the palace to the two empress dowagers and the queen.

Two pieces of cloth made of fifty beads, but there were thousands of noble ladies and ladies in Kyoto.

Everyone buys beads, unlike other jewelry alone, which are at least one pair of beads.

Xue Mei asked for twenty flowers in one breath. Xiao Mingyu had a toothache at the time, but she didn't want to sell them to her. Anyway, she gave them money.

In addition to beads, there are also ten pieces of silk, two cloaks, two pairs of shoes, two jade bracelets, and a bag of gold leaves, about eight taels of gold.

"No, mom, you're doing it very well." Xue Mei smiled.

"In the past, Miss Baochen Cousin helped you, and we knew it in our hearts." Dai's mother said.

"Yes, we have to be grateful." Xue Mei said.

The New Year gift was sent to Xi Baochen.

The next day, my aunt took Xi Baochen back to her parents' home in person to thank Xue Mei.

Xue Mei was called to the old lady's Yutangyuan.

Xue Yutan is not here, she wants to learn the rules with the nannies, and often she is not with the old lady.

Xi Baochen winked at Xue Mei, a little embarrassed.

My aunt is a smart person, not as old-fashioned as the old lady.

"...You and Baochen are good to do this, so my aunt will ask you to take her around in the first month of the year." said the aunt.

This is when I wanted Xue Mei to go to a banquet at a certain family and take Xi Baochen.

The Xi family is in Kyoto without a name or surname, so it is better to have a title to support the Yongning Marquis' Mansion.

I got married to the Xi family in my early years because the Xi family was a noble family in Qing Dynasty and had some connections with the wealthy family.

The wealthy family held the power to elect officials. It was because of this idea that the Marquis of Yongning married his sister to the Xi family. He could not get a higher family background.

The uncle of the Xi family once served as a county magistrate for four years. His political achievements were not good, but he was very good at making money and was dismissed during the assessment.

My uncle has some family background. In recent years, the father and son have been doing business for three years, but the Xi family is actually quite rich.

Of course, it is far from the point of being as rich as the Wen family.

My aunt has a high vision, she looks down on this one and the other one, and Xi Baochen has also delayed becoming an old girl.

现在让薛湄带着她去宴席,就是想要让她结交点人脉.

“姑姑,您嫌弃不嫌弃温家?你要是不嫌弃,我就带表妹去温锦的宴席.”薛湄说.

My aunt was stunned.

Immediately, the aunt nodded: "Where dares to dislike it?"
