Halfway through the banquet, a maid ran to Mrs. Chen and whispered a few words, and then Mrs. Chen hurriedly walked out, even the old Mrs. Chen also stood up.

"Who is this here?"

Everyone looked at him in amazement.

After a while, Mrs. Chen led Mrs. Jiang and Jiang Wanying over.

As soon as they saw the person, Mrs. Chen and Chen Jiarou hurriedly greeted them.

Daohua was surprised, pulled Dong Yuanyao's sleeve, and whispered, "But did you say they were assassinated and injured?"

Dong Yuanyao: "It's been so many days, you don't allow others to be okay. But it's really rare for Mrs. Jiang to condescend to come over in person."

"I know this."

Zhou Jingwan interrupted suddenly.

Daohua and Dong Yuanyao looked over together.

Zhou Jingwan kept her voice extremely low: "I heard my grandfather tell my father that the Jiang family wants to get involved in the gold mine."

Daohua and Dong Yuanyao looked at each other, both of them tacitly agreed not to continue the topic, and signaled to Zhou Jingwan not to say more.

The gold mine is too involved, and they should know less about it.

Several people continued to eat, and before they took a few bites, Chen Jiarou came over with Jiang Wanying.

"Jiang County Lord is here, everyone will come over to welcome you soon."

Dong Yuanyao glanced at Chen Jiarou and said with a smile: "It's not that the host needs to welcome guests. Isn't it enough to have you, Miss Chen?"

Chen Jiarou's face suddenly froze.

She found that the local officials and family members didn't seem to know anything about euphemism, and they didn't save face at all when they spoke.

Even though Dong Yuanyao said that, she and Daohua stood up and greeted Jiang Wanying.

Jiang Wanying smiled and asked everyone to sit down: "Everyone, sit down, my family was late and disturbed everyone's meal."

Everyone smiled politely, said that it was okay, and ate their own food.

Chen Jiarou saw that Daohua was not enthusiastic about Jiang Wanying, and some regretted bringing people to this table. She just thought that the girls at this table were the best family members among the guests today. Who knows, they are so different. Good match.

No, she could only entertain Jiang Wanying herself.

The two had known each other when they were in the capital, and for a while, their chatter and laughter were all over the dinner table.

At the main seat, Mrs. Chen was also chatting with Mrs. Jiang enthusiastically, but her manner was a bit over the top. She greeted Mrs. Jiang while ignoring the others present.

Fortunately, the old lady Chen was still there, and she greeted others to eat with some embarrassment.

Seeing the embarrassed and uncomfortable expression on Mrs. Chen's face, Mrs. Dong glanced at each other vaguely.

After lunch, everyone retired and gathered in twos and threes in the back garden to chat, laugh and chat.

"It is said that marrying a wife is to marry a virtuous person, which is really good."

Mrs. Dong sighed at Mrs. Li, Mrs. Su, and Mrs. Zhou.

Mrs. Zhou echoed: "Isn't that right? I'm too embarrassed to say what Mrs. Chen has done."

Mrs. Dong sneered: "Chen's family can get up, just borrowed the light of old Mrs. Chen to be the emperor's nanny. Originally, the foundation is weak, and it is time to find a helpful marriage when she is favored."

"But the Chen family chose a small family with little knowledge to be the mistress of the house. Unless their children and grandchildren are good enough, it is not certain whether they can even keep their current wealth."

Mrs. Li glanced at Chen Jiarou, who was greeting the girls, and said with a smile, "This girl from the Chen family looks really good."

Mrs. Zhou smiled and said, "What's the use of looking good? Mrs. Chen is pretty enough, but you can see that she's a mess when you look at her behavior."

Her father said in private that the emperor was not as close to the Jiang family as it appeared.

As the emperor's cronies, the Chen family rushed to curry favor with the Jiang family.

Mrs. Dong smiled: "I think that Miss Chen is just average." Then, she tapped a few Dong Yuanyao who were feeding the fish with her chin, "Which one of them is better than her?"

Mrs. Zhou laughed and said, "That's right."

In front of the fish pond, Dao Hua was feeding the koi in the fish pond with bait. Suddenly, her sleeve was pulled, and she turned her head to see Dong Yuanyao: "What's wrong?"

Dong Yuanyao said in Daohua's ear, "I want to go and make it easier, you accompany me."

Daohua nodded, gave Zhou Jingwan the bait in her hand, and left the crowd with Dong Yuanyao.

The Chen family specially prepared a room for the female family to change clothes. As soon as Daohua and Dong Yuanyao entered, they saw Jiang Wanying and Chen Jiarou who were cleaning their hands.

Chen Jiarou: "Miss Dong and Miss Yan, is it convenient for you to come too?"

Daohua nodded and said to Dong Yuanyao, "Go quickly, I'll be waiting for you here."

Dong Yuanyao felt a little uncomfortable in her stomach, nodded to Jiang Wanying and Chen Jiarou, and went to the inner room.

Jiang Wanying glanced at Daohua and smiled, "Then let's wait."

Daohua shook her head and said, "County lord, just go to work if you have something to do. I'll just wait here by myself."

Jiang Wanying: "Where are you busy?" After speaking, she sat down on the chair beside her.

Seeing her like this, Daohua didn't say much, she just waited.

Chen Jiarou looked at the two of them, her eyes moved slightly, and she also sat aside.

After a moment of silence, Jiang Wanying couldn't help but ask, "Miss Yan, I heard that Brother Yang often comes to your house for dinner?"

As soon as these words were said, Chen Jiarou pricked up her ears.

Daohua glanced at Jiang Wanying, without denying it, nodded: "Yes!"

Seeing Daohua, she said two words, Jiang Wanying and Chen Jiarou were stunned, is this gone?

Jiang Wanying took a deep breath and said with a smile, "It must be Miss Yan's family's delicious food, otherwise it wouldn't have attracted Brother Yang to your house every three days."

Daohua smiled lightly: "My family's meals are just average. As for why the little prince loves to go to my house, why don't I ask my two brothers and let them ask the little prince why?"

Jiang Wanying's face froze. Brother Yang didn't like to be restrained since he was a child. It would definitely be unpleasant for him to know that she was inquiring about him in private.

"That's not necessary, as for me, I just thought that Brother Yang often goes to your house, so you must know what he likes to eat, right?" After that, he smiled shyly, "I haven't seen Brother Yang for some years, and I don't know about him. The taste has not changed.”

Daohua shook her head and smiled and said, "I don't know that. Every time the little prince comes to my house, he eats in the front yard."

Hearing this, Jiang Wanying breathed a sigh of relief.

That's right, the Yan family is also a family of officials anyway, and you still understand the necessary rules and etiquette. It is impossible to allow your girls and foreign men to meet at will.

At this time, a maid came in to add the burning incense in the censer.

As soon as the spice was lit, Daohua frowned and fanned her nose with her hand: "What kind of incense is this smoking, why is it so boring?"

Chen Jia glanced at it and said with a smile, "It's just ordinary agarwood."

"Chenxiang." Daohua frowned, where does Chenxiang have such a strong fragrance, just as she was about to say something, Dong Yuanyao came out from the inside.

Seeing that Jiang Wanying and Chen Jiarou were both there, Dong Yuanyao was slightly surprised, greeted the two of them, and went to cleanse her hands with a smile.

The hand basin was placed next to the incense burner. Dong Yuanyao walked over, and even before washing her hands, she felt a little dizzy: "Yi Yi, why do I feel a little dizzy?"

Before he could finish speaking, his body swayed twice, and then fell softly to the ground.

Daohua was shocked when she saw it, she stood up quickly, and just took two steps forward, she felt her hands and feet softened, and she fell down swayingly: "Lai" just opened his mouth, and his stamina was chopped off. a bit.

Before falling into a coma, Daohua saw Jiang Wanying and Chen Jiarou also fall to the ground.

Who is it, who wants to harm them?
