Chapter 70 The Dandy Prince's White Moonlight
Shi Li didn't care at all about how Li Liang felt about her.
She was enjoying eating the melon.
I originally thought that I was just a salted fish watching, or a badger lying in ambush in the melon field.
Now we find that it is very possible to change history with just a flick of the finger.
Shi Li expressed great excitement.
"So, you helped Gu Ruijing pick out the cloth to give to his grandmother today?" Shi Li looked at her shy sister with shining eyes.
Shi Yuan twisted a handkerchief in her hand and nodded awkwardly.
It's all coincidence.
She went to the fabric shop today to see if there was any suitable material for making spring clothes, but she met Gu Ruijing at the door of the fabric shop.
At the door of the cloth shop which was usually frequented only by female customers, he stood there like a stone pillar, which was too conspicuous.
The female guests passing by couldn't help but look at him curiously.
Shi Yuan, in a friendly neighborly manner, took the initiative to walk over and ask him if he needed help.
As a result, he was regarded as a life-saving straw by Gu Ruijing.
He wanted to give his grandmother a piece of cloth, but he really didn't understand anything, so he hesitated at the door of the cloth shop.
Shi Yuan seemed to have a special liking for filial boys and directly expressed that she could help.
The two of them entered the cloth shop together.
Later, Gu Ruijing was very satisfied with the cloth she helped him choose, and wanted to buy another piece of cloth as a thank you gift to her.
Of course Shi Yuan would not accept such an expensive gift. After returning home, she couldn't help but tell Shi Li about it.
If Shi Yuan could really spark some love with Gu Ruijing, it would be much better than with Li Liang.
After all, Gu Ruijing's deep love for Shi Yuan is recognized by history.
Shi Li narrowed her eyes and held Shi Yuan's hand like a kind sister.
"It's okay, you did a great job. We are neighbors with the Gu family, so of course we will help if we can."
So, let’s get along well with each other in the future.
In this dynasty where the separation between men and women was not very strict, as long as boys and girls did not have secret meetings, normal social interactions were fine.
This is also the reason why the whole family opposed Shi Yue in the beginning, but now are happy to see Shi Yuan and Gu Ruijing getting along.
If both parties are open and sincere, who can say anything?
In a blink of an eye, it was the day for Marquis Anle to hold a banquet.
Shi Yuan obediently walked her mother and Shi Li to the door and watched them get on the carriage.
Shi Li looked at her reluctant expression and turned back to look at Madam Shi, "Are you really not taking Yuanyuan with you?"
"Yuanyuan is still young, there's no need to rush." Mrs. Shi replied, looking at Shi Li with that meaningful expression again.
Shi Li's scalp tingled after being stared at, so she just shut up.
The Anle Marquis Mansion is very lively today.
After all, the Marquis's wife was once a princess, so she must be given all the necessary ceremony and pomp.
The original owner had a quiet personality and had stayed in Ci'an for a long time, so she couldn't make any close friends and could only follow Madam Shi quietly.
The guests were all females, and many of them took the initiative to greet Mrs. Shi. Some of them looked at Shi Li from time to time, and praised her for being well-behaved and sensible.
That look reminded Shi Li of a pig waiting to be sold in the market.
The hairs on my body stood up again.
Fortunately, the marquis's wife showed up soon, so everyone stopped exchanging pleasantries and took their seats to wait for the host's arrangements.
Shi Li had just sat down behind Madam Shi when he heard a commotion coming from outside.
Immediately afterwards, two strong servants from the Marquis's Mansion worked together to carry in a basin of red coral that was half a person's height.
For the ancients, such a large coral was a very precious object and immediately attracted the attention of everyone present.
The marquis's wife, who was sitting in the main seat, saw Coral and blinked her charming eyes in surprise. Then a maid came to her and whispered a few words.
"So it was Zhao'er." The Marquis's wife smiled with satisfaction and pride, and explained to the female guests below, "Shanhu was a gift from my youngest son without telling me. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you all."
Are you kidding me?
Isn't that showing off?
Shi Li was not very interested in the coral and silently lowered her head and complained.
For some reason, she had no good feelings towards this beautiful and gentle marquis' wife.
But she was the only one who thought so.
"The young master is so filial and capable!"
"Yes, my husband often praises the young master for his achievements at a young age!"
The guests praised enthusiastically, and the marquis's wife said a few humble words, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.
"He is still very young, so I don't ask for much. It is enough for him to be polite and trustworthy."
This sentence made everyone think of the Prince of Anle. Who among those present had not heard of the name of Dandy?
At this moment, a servant outside came with a message:
"The Crown Prince has arrived!"
