C43 (1/2)
The day of the Heavy Sun Festival was the day to go to the Prime Minister's wedding banquet. The banquet would normally be held tonight, but Nangong Waner would be eating breakfast and lunch obediently at home.
During breakfast, Lord Assistant Minister and Madam Yang only coughed a few times when they saw Nangong Waner like this, but when it was lunch time, Lord Assistant Minister was a little embarrassed.
Madam Yang naturally knew why the Lord Assistant Minister was unhappy. It must be because he saw that his daughter was not dressed up at all, and was afraid that she would go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to take care of official business. Madam Yang glanced at Nangong Waner, ”Wan Er, I heard from the officials and the wives that there is a Auntie Li in Octagon Aniseed who is doing a good job. Do you need me to invite someone to do your head for you?”
Nangong Waner did not expect the Lord Assistant Minister couple to really place importance on this blind date feast. It was only just noon and they had anxiously urged her not to tidy up her clothes, she was initially just eating in silence, but after hearing Madam Yang's words, she raised her chopsticks and stood there stunned, then she immediately said to Madam Yang magnanimously, ”There's no need, Mother. Don't worry, I promise I will clean up a lot for myself.
Madam Yang asked, puzzled, ”What guarantee? Fighting for two?”
Nangong Waner patted his chest, and said clearly, ”Baobai has brought back a man for marriage, I hope he can bring back two men for marriage!”
This time, it was Madam Yang who was stunned, the water in Lord Assistant Minister's mouth almost sprayed out, fortunately he held back.
”All day long, what nonsense are you spouting? Just don't add tiles to that rotten reputation of yours.” Lord Assistant Minister seemed to not like Nangong Waner.
Nangong Waner, on the other hand, kept to what he said. After eating, he went back to his house and began to put on makeup. He did it for four whole hours until the butler came to push him on, ”The carriage has already been waiting at the door for a long time.”
Nangong Waner was still neither fast nor slow, he earnestly drew in front of the mirror, and then suddenly turned his head to look at Ju Xiang, ”Look, Ju Xiang, I feel like the sides of my eyes are asymmetrical.”
Ju Xiang was very calm, ”Your drawing is very good, young miss, let's quickly head out, if we are too late, we will become the focus of everyone's attention!” Only then did Nangong Waner slowly stand up and left the Palace.
As he stood at the door, Nangong Waner suddenly thought about the scene where the Assistant Minister’s Residence came to the banquet that day and sent a carriage over to receive him. Wan Er could not help but smile, as if it was still the day before yesterday.
Ju Xiang could not help but ask the young miss: ”What is the young miss thinking?” As he spoke, he helped Nangong Waner up onto the carriage.
Nangong Waner smiled, but Ju Xiang felt that that smile was very sweet. He only heard Nangong Waner saying mysteriously, ”I wonder if Luo Hua is sentimental or heartless.”
Recently, Ju Xiang felt that she was becoming more and more unfathomable.
Nangong Waner, who was sitting in the horse carriage, seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly stopped the horse carriage. He pulled open the curtains to take a look, and then closed the curtains again.
Ju Xiang also didn't understand why the young miss suddenly lost her interest and became so listless. She was obviously serious in dressing up a moment ago, that look was really marvelous.
