The ladies in the palace were no strangers to the Jiang family's women. As the most prominent official family in Yanjing City, the Jiang family would never forget to invite the Jiang family's ladies whenever any lady entertained guests at home.
In addition to Mrs. Yang, Ji Shuran and Mrs. Lu often met with these ladies. The second house had no daughters, and in the eight years since Jiang Li left, there was only Jiang Youyao in the first house. Many people had forgotten that there was a Jiang Li. They saw Jiang Youyao here more often, but they saw Jiang Li very few times.
What impressed them most was Jiang Li's grace in two consecutive examinations, one for piano music and one for horse racing.
If you don't make a sound, you'll be amazing. This is the impression of Jiang Li to outsiders. However, those who didn't go to watch the inspection didn't comment on it, thinking that it was just a rumour spread by word of mouth, and Jiang Li was not as good as the rumour said. Therefore, the palace banquet became an opportunity to confirm the rumour.
Everyone stared at Ji Shuran's back.
Behind the old lady, Ji Shuran and Mrs. Lu were in front, Mrs. Yang was behind, and among the girls, Jiang Youyao was walking in front.
Jiang Youyao had a smile on her face, very sweet and exquisite, and her dress and behaviour showed that she was a young lady who lived a rich life and did not suffer from the sufferings of the world. In addition, Ji Shuran also tried to make Jiang Youyao look decent and steady. You know, men look at women for their beauty, wisdom, and the women themselves, but when a wealthy family chooses a daughter-in-law, in addition to this, they also look at the daughter-in-law's personality and ability, and whether she can manage the peace of a harem.
Especially Zhou Yanbang's attempt to regret the marriage a few days ago made Ji Shuran very angry. If it weren't for the Ningyuan Marquis's wife who came to apologize in person, and if Jiang Youyao really admired Zhou Yanbang, Ji Shuran would definitely not let the Zhou family have such an easy time.
The more outstanding Jiang Youyao is, the more it shows that in this marriage, Jiang Youyao is not a match for Zhou Yanbang, but more than enough.
Jiang Youyao is like a blooming flower bud, entering the door gracefully, her appearance is extremely prosperous, and it also adds a bit of colour to the Yuming Palace. Some young ladies with ordinary looks, looking at Jiang Youyao, can't help but feel ashamed.
Raised in an enviable official family, with incomparable looks, loved by family, innocent, smooth marriage, handsome and gentle husband, and well-matched, isn't this something everyone envies? Even though most of the young ladies present came from wealthy families, every family has its own problems. Some young ladies from wealthy families don't live as well as they seem on the surface, and suffer in their hearts.
Jiang Youyao took in all the envy of the crowd, and she couldn't help feeling proud, and her steps became much lighter.
The one walking behind Jiang Youyao was Jiang Li.
In fact, in terms of family ranking, Jiang Li should walk ahead of Jiang Youyao. But no one told Jiang Li, and Jiang Youyao walked ahead on her own. Jiang Li didn't care about these things. In her opinion, it didn't matter who came first or who came later.
Everyone watched as a water-like girl walked out from behind the flower-like Jiang Youyao.
Compared to Jiang Youyao's gorgeous dress, she really looked too plain, too plain. But in the lightness, her distinct facial features are like the heavy ink and colour in landscape paintings, giving people infinite charm.
Miss Jiang Er walked slowly and calmly, looking gentler and more stable than Jiang Youyao's briskness. If Jiang Youyao is a romantic official lady in Yanjing City, this girl is more like a beautiful and intelligent fairy in the mountains. The former is suitable for the colour of flowers and clusters, while the latter is suitable for the indifference of not eating worldly fireworks.
