The group of people were having fun in the courtyard. They only had a hard time with Zhou Ruyun, who was sitting obediently beside the old lady.
His eyes were clearly staring straight ahead, yet he could only sit there without moving. From time to time, he would use his eyes to look at Ru Meng who was sitting behind him.
Chu Yuehua played with everyone and inadvertently saw the Duan Clan, who was sitting under an eaves.
Yet, she was smiling faintly as she looked at her husband and children. She was so beautiful that others couldn't tear their eyes away from her.
Chu Yuehua had always thought that the third wife, Lady Duan, was suffering in her heart. Although Zhou Mujiang didn't leave any concubines or rooms at home to ruin her heart, she rarely had the time to stay at home throughout the year.
She was born into a concubine and was unpopular with her family. She could not speak in front of her sister-in-law and had two young children. Such a marriage should have been a hard one.
However, her current smile made people feel very peaceful and beautiful, as if she was satisfied for the rest of her life.
Zhou Zhaokun was studying at his father's place and showing off to his mother. He seemed to be happy with the prosperity of the common people.
In a blink of an eye, the lively Mid-Autumn Festival came to an end, and the entire mansion began to prepare for the August 18th tea ceremony.
Who knew that when Zhou Ziheng returned home on the fifteenth of the eighth month, he said that His Highness the Crown Prince had heard the news and knew that a tea party was being held at the mansion. He wanted to borrow the mansion's place to gather and invite the various young masters.
This made the Yang family and Deng family, who had almost made up their plans, start to regroup.
This time, it was a completely different story. The Crown Prince coming and not coming was a completely different matter.
Chu Yuehua did not care about this. Since the matter was already handed over, she only needed to be like Chu Xuanhua and think about what she should wear that day.
Although the materials used to make the two sisters were the same, they had different temperaments and naturally, the styles of their clothes were also different.
Chu Xuohua was generous, Chu Yuehua was agile, she was a pair of beautiful sisters.
On the morning of the 18th day, the two sisters woke up with Zhou Ruyun and Zhou Ruheng to greet the ladies who had arrived.
Everyone participated in a lot of events like this, so they knew when was the most appropriate time to attend the event.
When Roland entered through the drooping flower gate and saw Chu Yuehua standing next to Zhou Ruyun, no matter how calm he was, he couldn't help but open his eyes wide.
Zhou Ruyun knew of her identity, so she smiled and stepped forward to introduce her. ”Miss Luo, this is my cousin Zhou Ruheng, and my cousin Chu Xuanhua. My cousin Chu Yuehua!”
After all, she was a young lady from the Grand Preceptor's estate. Roland quickly recovered from his shock and greeted them courteously before following everyone else inside.
In less than an hour, all the young ladies who replied had arrived.
Mo Wuji was no longer a stranger to Miss Mo and seeing that there were many who had never been here before, he helped to entertain her.
Although it was called a tea party, it was actually a gathering where a group of young ladies, who were used to being detained in the deep rooms, would come out to get some fresh air and chat with each other.
