The Shen Residence's grand entrance was continuously frequented by carriages, evidently all here for the plum-viewing gathering. However, whether it was the elder ladies or the young girls, they were all followed by one or two servants. Only Yang Ruxin strolled over by herself, which made her quite a unique presence.
Yang Ruxin paid no mind to the scrutiny of others and, after handing in her invitation, followed the servant guiding her into the Shen Residence.
"Are you also here to attend the plum-viewing gathering hosted by Madam Shen?" A girl wrapped in a big red fur cloak approached Yang Ruxin. "I'm Wei Yao, what's your name? Are you familiar with the Shen family? How come I've never seen you here before?"
Yang Ruxin shook her head with a smile, "My name is Yang Ruxin, it's my first time here."
"Oh." Wei Yao nodded. "Where's your maid?"
"I'm just a village girl; I don't have a maid," Yang Ruxin said with a smile.
