Chapter 217
In fact, it was because Ruirui was a boy, and the things for little girls were placed there as usual, but at the edge, quite far away.
Normally you won't be caught.
But haven’t all the ones that are close been sent?
There are not many choices left for King Zhao's brothers.
After the table was cleared, King Zhao gave an order and soon the maids came over with trays and quickly filled the entire table.
Prince Zhao's mansion is large and powerful, and they have several copies of these things.
It is to prevent damage, dirt and other problems, but it is rarely used.
While the maids were setting the dishes, Ji Yunqing took the opportunity to tell the little boy: "Don't send any more, it won't be enough!"
"I'll let you catch them later, just pick the one you like."
Ji Yunqing stroked his forehead and thought about it, feeling uneasy, and then reminded: "No matter what it is, just pick one."
Hey kid, just pick one and let everyone praise it!
Anyway, your mission is completed.
Ruirui nodded her head: "Yes, Ruirui, I can get it."
Ji Yunqing was still worried, but she had no other choice but to wait and see what the kid could do.
"Don't worry, I think this child is very filial"
The princess smiled and comforted him. In her hand she held a set of small golden bow and arrows, which the child had just given her.
"Not only is he filial, but he's also quite... hospitable?"
She couldn't help laughing as she looked at the small gifts given to everyone.
Everyone gave small gifts, which really showed their hospitality.
Why haven’t I heard that this kid is so funny before?
Ji Yunqing acted embarrassed: "Princess, please don't praise him. I didn't know that this kid would come up with this trick. Children's minds are really wild and unrestrained."
This time, Ruirui first encountered a small wooden sword, and Ji Yunqing hurriedly shouted: "Got it, the fourth master got the wooden sword!"
The servants watching nearby were also stunned for a moment, then quickly followed suit and praised.
I finally got through this stage without any major problems.
In the crowd, Ji Er, who saw this scene, was waiting anxiously.
This kid has been in the spotlight today, why isn’t he falling down yet?
Is it because the dosage is too little?
Or was there something wrong and the drug was not given at all?
Ji Er couldn't help but look at He Shiqi with a questioning look, and happened to see the other party looking back at him with the same questioning look.
Concubine He: ...Did you not give me the drug?
You sisters are teasing me!
Suspicion and doubt lingered between the two of them, but considering the issue of venue, they could only endure it secretly.
The one-year-old ceremony finally ended. Seeing little Ruirui being taken away, Nanny An appeared beside Ruirui and took care of him. Only then did Ji Yunqing feel relieved.
When guests come, there is always something to eat, and the next part of the time is for everyone to have a meal together.
There was also an entertaining performance in the middle, which was an acrobatic show agreed upon by Concubine Wen and Ji Yunqing.
Ji Yunqing sat peacefully in the chair, looking at the plates of delicious food in front of him and glancing around at the bustling crowd.
She made up her mind and sat here today!
Don't go out no matter who tells you to, and truly eliminate all hidden plots.
The next moment, a little maid came over with a tray.
"Ouch!"
Her hand was crooked, and even though Ji Yunqing dodged in time, the corner of her skirt got wet.
Everyone at the scene looked over.
After discovering the situation here, Concubine Lou warned: "How dare this little maid do things? She is so careless!"
The little maid immediately knelt down and begged for mercy, her body trembling, her voice filled with tears: "Two concubines, spare me, Concubine Ji, spare me!"
What else could Ji Yunqing say?
She touched the wet clothes with her fingers, wondering how long it would take to let them dry.
Concubine Lou's concerned words came: "Just a word of mercy will do? Sister Ji, you can't wear wet clothes, why don't you go back and change first?"
The little maidservant became even more frightened and kowtowed repeatedly. Soon her forehead turned purple.
At this time, a voice from the crowd said, "What a poor little maid! She just slipped up and broke her head. Can't you forgive her?"
Ji Yunqing glanced in the direction of the voice and saw a strange woman with an oval face. When the other party noticed her looking at her, she quickly lowered her head and acted as if she was in a panic.
Look back.
"Thank you for your concern, Concubine Lou."
Ji Yunqing thanked her first, then looked at the little maid: "Stop kneeling, look at her little face, it will be bad if she gets red from crying, go and apply some medicine to her."
"Yes, master"
Xuancao immediately came forward with a little maid, and helped the shivering little maids on the ground up on both sides.
"Sister, please get up quickly. Concubine Ji has always been kind and will not blame you."
As he spoke, he pulled the person outside and said, "I have some medicine. Let's go and apply it first. It will not look good if your face is disfigured."
The little maid struggled and didn't want to go out: "I won't go, I...well" Didn't she just splash a little water?
She didn't do anything.
Hemerocallis quickly covered the other person's mouth and half hugged and half embraced him and took him out.
"Hush, there are honorable masters inside, don't disturb them. Who did you learn this rule from? Don't you understand this?"
This is someone else's family affair, and everyone pretended not to see it.
Those who needed to talk continued to talk, and some people also came to ask how Ji Yunqing was doing, and suggested that he go back and change his clothes.
Ji Yunqing was helpless. It was obvious that the clothes would not dry for a while, and it would not look good to wear them wet.
She stood up: "Okay, I'll go then"
The woman raised her eyebrows. Is that the end?
She spoke again anxiously: "What about the little maid? Are you going to kill her to silence her?"
The people nearby hurriedly grabbed her.
"Stop talking now"
This is such a great dad!
Ji Yunqing pretended not to hear anything and thought to himself which mansion this person came from, was he trying to establish himself as a simple, kind and brave person?
This character setting is a bit old-fashioned!
Ji Yunqing said he was going to change his clothes and came back soon.
Seeing this scene, Concubine Lou and the others were stunned.
Is Osmanthus Garden... so close to here?
Something's not right, right?
Before they could get away, the people who were planning to plot against Ji Yunqing were also stunned.
How come she is so fast?
Finally, Concubine Xu Shu asked curiously, "Didn't you go to change your clothes? How come you're in such a hurry?"
She looked Ji Yunqing up and down. He had indeed changed his clothes, but the speed...
Ji Yunqing was very calm: "Oh, I was thinking about what to do if the clothes got dirty, so I prepared the clothes a long time ago and put them upstairs."
A trace of surprise flashed in Concubine Lou's eyes: "How could you put it here? What if someone took it by mistake..."
"Do not worry"
Ji Yunqing comforted her and told her not to be nervous: "I've already thought about it. I got a big box to put it in, and I even locked it."
Everyone: "..."
This is really well prepared.
Worried that her clothes would be damaged again, Ji Yunqing reminded him, "There are still ten or so clothes left. It's impossible for my clothes to be splashed with water every time."
