Flowers in full bloom

Chapter 115 Who is more beautiful

"Well, they are all beautiful! They are all beautiful!" Rong Jue looked at the pearl, then at the flower bud, "But they are beautiful in different ways."

"What do you mean by different good looks? What kind of answer is that? Don't you know how to look?" Pearl asked doubtfully.

"Well, Sister Hua looks very pretty, and very gentle. Sister Zhenzhu also looks very pretty, but... a little... naughty? Lively?" Rong Jue also seemed a little uncertain.

"Naughty? Lively? Do you want to say cute?" Pearl asked back?

"Yes, that's what I mean. It's about the same." Rong Jue nodded. "Anyway, you and Sister Hua are both good-looking."

"If they are all good-looking, there will be a first and a second. Just tell me, am I first or second?" Zhenzhu took Hualei's arm and said to Rongjue playfully.

"Okay, fine. There are seven fairies in the sky. Sister Zhenzhu, you are older than Sister Hua, so you can be the eldest fairy! Sister Hua is the younger fairy." Rong Jue jumped up and down, looking heartless.

"Pei Rongjue, you............." Zhenzhu picked up a small stone from the ground and threw it at Rongjue. "Hahaha..." Rongjue jumped lightly to the side and dodged it.

Hualei smiled and held back Zhenzhu who was trying to pick up the pebbles. "Don't get your skirt dirty. I think Rongjue is smart and cute, good-looking, with a good personality and good taste. It's so rare that she knows how to distinguish between good-looking and bad-looking things at such a young age." Hualei praised Rongjue.

"That's right, Sister Hua, let me tell you. When I was in the clan school, even the teacher said that I was smart and cute. Not only do I look good, I also dress well. Look, this light purple bodice I'm wearing today, doesn't it look good?" Rong Jue pulled the hem of his clothes to show Hua Lei.

Rong Jue wore a white brocade robe inside today, with a light purple gauze vest outside, a black jade belt tied around it, and a jade pendant hanging around his waist. With Rong Jue's fair skin, he looked very beautiful indeed.

"Well, it's really beautiful. With Rong Jue's confident and sunny temperament, it looks even better." Hua Lei praised sincerely.

Rong Jue smiled happily. Although he didn't quite understand what the confident and sunny temperament meant, he knew it was a good thing. Rong Jue proudly puffed out his belly.

"Let's go quickly, Grandmother Pei should be waiting for us." Hualei pulled Zhenzhu, and the few of them quickened their pace and walked towards Songhe Hall.

In Songhe Hall, Madam Pei was already waiting for them. Seeing the group of children coming in, she smiled brightly. She hurriedly asked the maids to bring up the prepared breakfast. Ruan also came this morning. While helping the maids serve breakfast, she glanced at her son from time to time, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.

Mrs. Pei smiled and said to her daughter-in-law, "Fourth daughter-in-law, you don't have to be so nervous. Anyway, the results are out. You will know when you go down. It would be best if you pass the exam. If you don't, you can come back next time. Don't put too much pressure on the child." Ruan nodded and stopped talking. After they had breakfast, Mrs. Pei gave them a few instructions, and then they left Songhe Hall.

Hualei and the others had just reached the main gate when Han Qingge walked over quickly from a small path nearby.

"Cousin, I'll go with you too." Han Qingge called Rong Jin in a tender voice.

Rong Jin frowned, "Cousin, the Imperial College must be packed with people today, and you can't squeeze through. You don't have anything to do, so why are you going there?"

Han Qingge glanced at Rong Jin coquettishly, "Cousin, how can it be okay? Isn't Rong Jue going to see the admission list? Although I am not Rong Jue's biological sister, I can be considered half a sister." Han Qingge made up an excuse. "I really care about Rong Jue, too. I want to go and see if he has been admitted."

"Cousin, we'll know whether Rong Jue was admitted when we come back. Why bother you to make this trip with me?" Zhenzhu spoke from the side, looking unwelcome.

"Sister Zhenzhu, you see, you are Rong Jue's cousin, and I am Rong Jue's cousin. We both care about Rong Jue equally." Han Qingge said aggrievedly. "It's natural for me to be anxious about Rong Jue's schooling." Zhenzhu rolled her eyes secretly.

It's true that Zhenzhu is Rong Jue's cousin, but you, Han Qingge, are Madam Han's niece, and have nothing to do with Rong Jue's mother, Ruan. I don't know what makes sense for you to directly call yourself cousin.

Hua Lei looked at the sky and said, "It's almost time, let's go. Miss Han is also concerned about Rong Jue, so let's go together. The carriage can accommodate everyone anyway."

Hualei was a little anxious. She didn't want to watch Zhenzhu and Han Qingge continue to argue at the gate. Anyway, she could go if she wanted to. It wouldn't interfere with anyone else's business.

Rong Jin looked at Hualei and nodded. "Then let's go together."

"Thank you, cousin. You are so kind to me." Han Qingge was very happy. Rong Jin turned away.

Butler Pei and the coachman were already waiting at the gate of the mansion with the carriage. When they saw everyone coming out, they put down the horse stool. Rong Jin helped Rong Jue and Xiao Yuan get on the carriage. He also helped Zhenzhu get on the carriage. Hua Lei was about to get on, but Han Qingge came from the side and followed behind Zhenzhu. Hua Lei calmly stepped back a few steps and gave her the seat.

"Cousin, help me up, my skirt is too long." Han Qingge shyly reached out to Rong Jin. Today, Han Qingge wore a light yellow dress, a slightly tight top, a loose long skirt, and a very large skirt, which was indeed not very convenient for her to get into the car.

Rong Jin's face turned cold, and he looked at Chun Hua who was standing beside him, "Chun Hua, what are you doing standing there? Hurry up and help your young lady get in the car. Why do you want me, the eldest son of the Marquis's mansion, to help a little maid like you do things?"

Chun Hua, who was standing by, turned pale, and hurried over to help Han Qingge get on the carriage, and helped Han Qingge put up her skirt. Han Qingge withdrew her hand awkwardly.

After watching Han Qingge sit down in the carriage, Hua Lei stepped forward, stepped on the horse stool, and entered the carriage.

Xiaoyuan and Rongjue sat side by side, while Zhenzhu and Han Qingge sat side by side. Hualei paused and sat down next to Han Qingge.

Rong Jin was the last one to get on the carriage and sat down next to Rong Jue. The carriage started to move.

"Sister Pearl, is this your new dress? It's really beautiful. Your skin is very fair, and this color makes your skin look even fairer and more beautiful. The hem of the skirt is also beautiful, like a blooming flower." Han Qingge looked at Pearl's new dress and felt a little envious. Her aunt hadn't made a new dress for her for a long time. The one she was wearing was made in the second half of last year. Some places were already untied. "Is this skirt also made by Sister Agate for you?"

Pearl nodded, "Yeah, yes, my second sister made it for me."
