1130: The Birthday Banquet at the Min Family 1

The Birthday Banquet at the Min Family 1

While Qing was speaking, Gu Chaoyan was observing the plum flower she had painted through the mirror. The color of the flower fell directly onto the birthmark, so those who did not know about the birthmark, would not notice it at all.0

She was satisfied by that too, but she was just happy that she had done a good job in painting, which covered the birthmark, differing from how Sword One and Qing thought.

She put the tools back onto the table, then Gu Chaoyan turned to Qing, asking, "Really?"

Qing nodded constantly.

Qing felt that her Elder Miss resembled her mother a great deal. They were both very beautiful.

She was very glad inside.

After all, her Elder Miss used to be quite lovely as a little girl, but gradually, she grew chubby and ugly, so that for a dozen years, her Elder Miss had been laughed at. Also, the Prince of the Duke Changning broke off the engagement because of Elder Miss' look, so Qing wondered if Elder Miss had been hurt by this. At least, she, as the maid, did feel hurt by this. Yet at the moment, her Elder Miss had become beautiful and no one would dare laugh at her any more!

Gu Chaoyan smiled.

She did not really care if she looked beautiful.

She was not there for some beauty contest at the Min Family, yet Qing did care a great deal about whether or not she could exceed Gu Ruxue in appearance, because she and Gu Chaoyan had been through too much bitterness.

Gu Chaoyan could understand Qing, and she was just trying to please Qing.

"Let's get ready, and set off." Gu Chaoyan said gently.

Excited, Qing went to prepare.

Gu Chaoyan smiled.

At the Crown Prince's mansion.

Zhou Huailing was already ready so he was waiting for Gu Ruxue. Men and women did not share the same table, yet Zhou Huailing was the Crown Prince and Gu Ruxue was the Crown Prince Consort, and they were going to attend the banquet together. At this moment, he was waiting for Gu Ruxue.

Gu Ruxue got up early in the morning to prepare, but she was not yet done getting ready.

It was the Min Family's birthday banquet, and a noble family like the Min Family would only have important guests, like those from the imperial family, noble families and officers' families. There might be someone else who had a high position in the land attending as well, so the banquet was very important, and Gu Ruxue paid a great deal of attention to this banquet.

Gu Ruxue had seven dresses prepared for her because she wanted to be the best dressed so she needed to pick the most beautiful one.

Therefore, Gu Ruxue had been putting them on one after the other starting early in the morning.

Only at this moment did she finally choose one of the dresses, which both Gu Ruxue and Zhou Huailing liked.

The dress was yellow, and it made Gu Ruxue, who had fair skin, look very fresh and more like a fairy, which pleased her a lot.

So she got dressed in it directly.

When she was done, Zhou Huailing nodded with serious eyes. "Ruxue, you can wear this dress, I am sure that you will be the most beautiful lady there."

Gu Ruxue looked excited, and had maids put on her makeup before heading towards the Min Mansion.

The moment she walked out, Junyi threw a look at her.
