Chapter 100 Birthday Banquet (3)

All the ladies looked at her in surprise, thinking that there was nothing wrong with the Jiang family's legitimate daughter from the mountains and fields. Look at her demeanor, she clearly looked like a nobleman from the palace!

When Jiang Susu saw it, she snatched a handkerchief. She didn't understand that Jiang Ruan was raised in the village, but she was not very proud of her demeanor. Whenever she mentioned the Jiang family, everyone only knew her name. However, since Jiang Ruan came back, Jiang Ruan actually compared her, and even her most proud appearance could not be better. She cursed in her heart. Jiang Ruan was young, but her every move had the charm that only adult women had, which made people feel bored when they saw it.

When Jiang Ruan came forward, Mrs. Gu smiled and said, "Are you Jiang Ruan?"

"Ruan Niang has met the general's wife." Jiang Ruan smiled and saluted her.

"How do you know that I am the general's wife?" Mrs. Gu was surprised.

"I heard that the General General was a heroic and strong man with his wife and wife, and Ruan Niang saw that the sachet embroidered on his waist was not a flower or a shield, so she just made a guess. Now she saw that she had hit her by chance."

Mrs. Gu smiled and said, "So that's it, Mrs. Jiang, your daughter is really kind." Seeing that Jiang Ruan is generous, extraordinary, and smart, she likes her a little bit of love. The only bad thing is that she looks too strong. Now she is so charming at a young age. When she gets older, she thinks she is even more beautiful. She looks too strong but is not a good thing, so she may cause trouble.

Thinking of this, the other ladies in the hall had already started to talk to the eldest lady of the Jiang family who suddenly came out. Jiang Ruan saluted them one by one. She smiled gently and didn't know what she said, but she had a great time talking to all the ladies, which soon won the favor of many people. Even the most mean wife, the wife of the minister, couldn't bear to face her when she saw her.

Jiang Susu was afraid that she wouldn't bite her teeth, so she was naturally angry. After talking for a while, Caique and Du Juan came to support Mrs. Jiang. Everyone stood up and bowed. Mrs. Jiang smiled and agreed. She was in good spirits, but she did not have the slightest weakness on the hospital bed a few days ago. Seeing Jiang Ruan, there was a trace of deep meaning in Mrs. Jiang's eyes. Caique helped the old lady sit down on the main seat in the hall. The ladies present gave birthday gifts one after another.

The nanny ordered the servants to receive it aside, Jiang Quan and Jiang Dan arrived, and Jiang Chao followed behind. Seeing Mrs. Jiang, she stepped forward and said, "The grandson wishes grandmother a long life, wealth and health."

His eyebrows and eyes were flying, and he was wearing a blue straight-shot shirt. He was refreshing and cheerful, and he no longer looked gloomy a few days ago. Those who didn't know were a little confused about the previous rumors. Jiang Chao took out a small wooden box high in stool from behind and put it on: "The birthday gift my grandson gave to his grandmother."

Everyone looked at the wooden box with curiosity. Mrs. Jiang smiled and asked Caique to open it. Caique opened it as she said, carefully hugging a white jade Bodhisattva from inside. The Bodhisattva carving was vivid, with vivid eyebrows and eyes, as if it was alive. The most precious one was carved from a whole square of white jade, which was natural and worth a lot of value. Everyone was amazed, Jiang Chao said: "A grandson felt that this Bodhisattva was familiar with each other. When he looked closely, he saw that this was not a grandmother. The grandson bought it, and only wished the Bodhisattva to protect her and her grandmother was healthy."

After saying something so appealing, Mrs. Jiang laughed and scolded: "What do you think of a Bodhisattva? Jinghun said!"

Jiang Li let out an almost invisible sneer on the side. Jiang Chao was really good at pleasing Mrs. Jiang and was very good at speaking. He only chose beautiful words, but he was just a man who was born with Mrs. Jiang.

With Jiang Chao on the side, Jiang Susu also stood up and curled her lips, "Brother gave the gift so well. Su Niang is really shameless to take out her own things."

"Sister, don't say that," Jiang Chao scratched his head: "My gift has always been inferior to yours."

"Don't fight around," Xia Yan smiled and said, "Su'er, take out your birthday gift and give it to your grandmother for a look."

Jiang Susu asked the maid beside her to present a sandalwood box, which was also exquisitely made. The butterfly opened the box and spread the things in the box with the dragonfly.

It was a huge double-sided embroidery, with a hundred long-lasting characters embroidered on it. Regardless of the embroidery, even this thought and project are shocking.

Jiang Susu lowered her head and said humbly: "Su Niang's embroidery is not good, time is in a hurry, so she can only embroider like this. Grandma should not dislike it."

The embroidery is exquisite, the pattern and color matching are bright and dignified, and the handwriting is meticulous. The needlework cannot tell a mistake at a glance. Even if it is used as the entire Dajin Dynasty, it is also the best. Jiang Susu is indeed talented, and embroidery can indeed be regarded as a master in the capital. This filial piety and humility suddenly made many ladies admire him.

Mrs. Jiang also smiled: "Su'er's thoughts are much more attentive than your brother."

Jiang Chao smiled and said nothing. Jiang Susu looked at Jiang Ruan: "Big sister, what is your gift with your grandmother? Could it be that you have hidden it, let's open your eyes."

With Jiang Chao and Jiang Susu Zhuyu in front of him, everyone turned their attention to Jiang Ruan, just wanting to see what good things Jiang Ruan could take out. Jiang Ruan smiled slightly: "My gift cannot be taken out for the time being."

Everyone was a little disappointed, and Jiang Susu asked: "Why? Big sister, can't Su'er take a look?"

Jiang Ruan gently refused: "No." His tone was firm.

Jiang Chao smiled and said, "The eldest sister didn't forget to prepare gifts for her grandmother, so she said that. Wasn't that the same thing the last time she was at her grandfather's house? Isn't it the same for you? My mother prepared it for you."

As if he was unintentionally speaking, Xia Yan hurriedly said, "Chao'er!" After interrupting him, everyone had already thought about it, thinking that there was no biological mother around to teach her. Although she looked very good, her human nature was weaker than Jiang Susu.

"It made my elder brother laugh," Jiang Ruan said with a smile: "But speaking, how will my grandfather's family go to today? Could it be that because Ruan Niang forgot to prepare a gift for the door, she didn't even participate in the grandmother's birthday party?"

As soon as these words were said, Jiang Chao's face froze, and Xia Yan was also stunned. Indeed, the Xia family, as the in-laws, had a single person in the birthday party of Mrs. Jiang. Even if they didn't come, they should send someone a message to give him a gift. However, from the beginning to now, I have never heard of Xia Ren. Naturally, the Xia family could not have come because Jiang Ruan did not give him a gift, but what happened? The suspicious eyes made Jiang Quan feel dull and glared at Xia Yan. Xia Yan hurriedly said, "Your grandmother is in poor health recently and she is really working hard in the mansion, so she will go to the banquet in the future."

Jiang Ruan suddenly realized: "By the way, the last time I went to my grandfather's house, did she faint from vomiting blood? It's not healing yet."
