Zhao Ruxi excused herself politely and sat over.

"That child Ruotong was spoiled by me. He has a lonely temperament and is not very caring about others. He has not had any good friends since he was a child. I didn't expect to go to the academy to teach and get to know a kid like you."

Zhao Ruxi didn't know what Princess Zhennan meant, so she just smiled and didn't say anything.

"Ruotong said that when we meet next time, I will ask you not to call her wife. It is too unreasonable and calling her old will be in vain. Just ask you to call her sister."

After saying that, Princess Zhennan let out a long sigh: "She is crazy how many years older than you are, but she is not as sensible as you."

Zhao Ruxi always felt something was wrong when she heard this. And she couldn't remain silent for a long time.

She asked doubtfully: "Next time we meet? Master, oh, no..." She covered her mouth, "Isn't Sister Ruotong at home?"

Princess Zhennan laughed: "She went back to the British government. After you persuaded her last time, she figured it out and said she wanted to go back and give it a try. In fact, it will be fine once this hurdle is passed. From now on.

Life will definitely go smoothly."

"Yes, sister Ruotong's life will definitely get smoother and smoother." Zhao Ruxi agreed casually, feeling that Xiao Ruotong's return was not a big surprise.

From the look on Xiao Ruotong's face, one can tell that she has deep feelings for the British prince, and this is not something that can be easily let go of.

In this case, it is better to go back and give it a try.

Since Xiao Ruotong is not here, she doesn't want to stay any longer.

She waved to Qing Feng, took the flower basket from Qing Feng's hand, and said, "Sister Ruotong lacks everything, and I have nothing to give her, so I put this basket of flowers with my own hands, just ordinary flowers.

It’s just a wild thing. If it’s convenient for the princess, please pass it on to Sister Ruotong. If it’s inconvenient, forget it, it’s not a valuable thing. I’ll insert another one for her next time.”

"Oh, it looks pretty." Princess Zhennan took the flower basket, looked at it, handed it to the maid behind her, and smiled at Zhao Ruxi, "I will have someone give it to her. Thank you."

"Then if there's nothing else, I'll leave." Zhao Ruxi stood up.

"etc."

Princess Zhennan signaled to the maid next to her, and the maid immediately stepped forward, opened a delicate small box, and held it in front of Zhao Ruxi.

"Inside are four invitations to the birthday banquet of our old princess. The date is the day after tomorrow. If you are free, please come with your grandmother and parents."

"Thank you, Princess." Zhao Ruxi took it and saluted Princess Zhennan, "With that, I will take my leave."

After returning home, Zhao Ruxi went to the old lady to say hello as usual and put the box in front of the old lady: "Grandma, this is the invitation to the birthday banquet of the old princess of Zhennan Palace. Do you want to go to the banquet?"

The old lady's body was shaken. She reached for the post and took a look at it. Her eyes became moist and she said with emotion: "Our family has not received such a post for several years."

"Yes." Mrs. Zhu was also very emotional. "Back then, when the eldest sister and the second sister wanted to discuss marriage, I asked Mrs. Wei Guogong and my natal sister-in-law to help me get some invitations and take them there. That's how I got it.

Two good marriages."

This kind of banquet, to put it bluntly, is a place where noble ladies look after their children.

Everyone was eating, drinking, talking and laughing. Some young girls' personalities, temperaments, how they behave, and whether they are capable or not can be seen through some small details.

And how you are a mother-in-law will be carefully scrutinized by those who have daughters. If someone is mean, even if the husband is in a prominent position and the mother who loves her daughter is not willing to enter into such a relationship, her daughter will have to have a bad mother-in-law.

If there is someone they like, everyone will let their girls make friends with the young lady they like, form a handkerchief friendship, and invite each other to their homes. The same goes for boys. They go back and forth for a while to really understand each other's personality.

Only your temper and background will bring the marriage to the table.

Although there are official media in the capital, they will only serve as a communication bridge during marriage negotiations, engagement, and marriage.

But due to the decline of Suiping's house, no one in the upper class took the initiative to send them invitations. Suiping's house wanted to marry girls to prominent families, so it lost a very important channel.

Now Princess Zhennan is sending an invitation to Zhao Ruxi. To put it bluntly, she is giving her a good marriage. With her promotion, if Zhao Ruxi performs better and is noticed by the ladies, the chance of becoming a candidate for her daughter-in-law will be greatly increased.

.

Zhao Ruxi understood this and refused directly: "No, I don't need to discuss marriage now. I just returned to my grandmother and mother when I was young. I want to stay at home for a few more years. I will consider this when I am seventeen or eight years old.

It’s a question.”

"Nonsense." Mrs. Zhu laughed and scolded, "You are already an old girl at the age of seventeen or eight. If you discuss marriage at that time, what kind of good family can you find? You can only fill houses for others."

"Uh, isn't it?" Zhao Ruxi felt sad for the young woman from Dajin.

A girl is eighteen and a flower, which is when she is most youthful and beautiful. But in Jin Dynasty, was she already despised by others?

"Usually, we meet someone when we are fourteen or five years old. After seeing each other for a year and a half, we choose a good match, and then we reach fifteen or six years old. At this time, we have to go through the process of accepting, asking for names, accepting, etc.

After the process is completed, the woman will be seventeen or eight years old, just in time to get married."

The old lady nodded and agreed with her daughter-in-law: "No. Which daughter of a good family doesn't choose a husband from thousands of families? If it goes well, that's fine. If it doesn't go well, you can't choose one for a year or two.

Wouldn’t it be a mistake to get the flower letter? The same is true for boys. Good boys are basically settled at the age of sixteen or seven. Those who are not engaged at the age of seventeen or eight have something wrong with them."

Zhao Ruxi: "..."

As a single person who was nearly thirty years old and had no plans to get married in her previous life, she felt very complicated after hearing these words.

"I don't want to get married." She stated her position. "My good life has just begun. I have to serve other people's big family, set rules to serve my mother-in-law, look at the man's face, and have to have sex with my concubine to steal the man. Yes.

Is the food in our house not delicious, or is there not enough room to live in? Do I have to go out and make a fool of myself?"

Before the two of them could scold her, she said another harsh word in spite of the old lady and Mr. Zhu's shame: "If you force me to go on a blind date and get married, I will buy a house and move out."

These words shocked the old lady and Mrs. Zhu...it's strange.

Mrs. Zhu slapped Zhao Ruxi on the arm.

"You silly kid, what are you talking about? What grown-up girl talks so openly like you? And if you move out, your wings will be hard on you?" Mrs. Zhu said while winking at her daughter.
