Chapter 968 - 819, Adultery
In the gentle warmth of the spring in March, flowers bloomed all over.
Within the Hundred Flowers Garden of the Prince Residence, the blossoms were in full splendor, radiantly vibrant and densely packed. The Princess Consort of the Ma Family had extended invitations several days earlier to the ladies of the royal family and the nobility, inviting them to the Prince Residence to enjoy the flower viewing on the third day of the third month.
When a Princess Consort extended an invitation for such a banquet, people felt obliged to attend, and thus, on the third day of the third month, they arrived early at the Prince Residence.
Accompanied by Luo Qiong, the Princess Consort of the Ma Family greeted everyone with a warm and cheerful demeanor, yet no one was sent to summon Daohua, as if she had been forgotten entirely.
Inside Pingxi Hall, the maidservants and elder female servants, under Wang Manman’s strict supervision, went about their duties in an orderly manner, paying little attention to the lively events taking place in the main courtyard.
Within the main house, Daohua was engrossed in calculating the various expenditures of Pingxi Hall.
Having married into the Prince Residence for three months, she had gradually grown accustomed to her new life and had settled comfortably into the role of a wife.
Daohua cared little for the Princess Consort of the Ma Family’s deliberate disregard for her presence and even found her absence from the bustling activity a welcome respite.
