Wonderful Puppet

Chapter 35 Peony

The small mirror was not a vanity mirror used by ordinary little ladies.

With a bang, the small mirror was opened by Zhen Miao, and the glass-faced mirror revealed every detail.

"It's a diorama." The little lady who knew the goods whispered.

When Zhen Yan saw Zhen Miao take out the small mirror, her expression changed, and she strode over to hold her hand: "Fourth sister, don't be ridiculous!"

She and Zhen Miao each have one of these dioramas, which were given to them by their uncle when they were young.

The little uncle is different from the big uncle and the second uncle. He has no intention of official career and does not like to study. He likes to travel around the world. Later, he went overseas by boat.

It was two years since I left, and I came back with a full reward, bringing back many novel and precious things, most of which were donated.

The two small mirrors, according to my mother, were brought back that time, and they were given one to each of their sisters.

Only later, my uncle went to sea again and never came back. He said that he encountered a hurricane at sea and the whole ship was killed.

A few years later, for some unknown reason, the Great Zhou Dynasty issued a ban on the sea and stopped sea trade. The Western items that were passed down in the past became more and more precious.

Especially this small vanity mirror, no matter how many daughters of noble families want to own one, only royal princesses and county masters have it.

Although Zhao Feicui was a girl from Mu Enhou's mansion, she didn't have one. Seeing that Zhen Miao actually brought out such a rare thing, her eyes lit up and she had the idea that she was bound to win.

"Ms. Zhen Er, do you want to take back the things you have already taken out? It's too stingy to build the Anbo Mansion."

Zhen Miao gave Zhen Yan a reassuring look, then glanced at Zhao Feicui lightly, and without saying a word, put down the small mirror next to the three pairs of golden hairpins.

Zhao Feicui was very sensitive to this aspect. Although Zhen Miao didn't say a word, she couldn't hold back her anger. For fear that the colorful head she took out would be looked down upon, she gritted her teeth and took the exquisite jade rabbit that the Empress gave her last year. Pei let go.

Biyitai is located on a high platform at the bend of the Ripple River, surrounded by white jade railings. Because it is the Qixi Festival, it is decorated with many red silk and colorful satin, and there are large clusters of flowers.

At this time, the sky was still bright, and everyone passed by in a mighty manner. When the hour was chimed, Zhao Feicui and Zhen Miao came to the stage.

The items for the first production of Qiaoguohuagua have long been prepared.

Zhao Feicui dared to take Zhen Miao for a test, it was not completely unprepared.

She turned 13 this year. Last year she participated in the daughter's meeting to join in the fun, but this year she came with the idea of ​​getting a good ranking.

The family is starting to discuss her relatives. If she is famous today, it will be of great benefit.

So this year, the Mansion of Mu Enhou also gave Zhao Feicui a plan.

Her appearance is quite good, but her talent in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting is average. This is not something that can be learned overnight. Besides, which family girl has not been practicing every day since childhood.

On the contrary, it is to make Qiaoguohuagua, and few people are willing to spend time on it.

Not to mention the smoky ones, even if they are made, they will not improve their cooking skills much, and they will not be of much help in the future.

Zhao Feicui has made great efforts in this area this year, and is just waiting for the beginning today.

She went to the stage, first swept the items on Qingyu Chang's case, and quickly picked up the dough and kneaded it.

Since Zhao Feicui acted first, most of his eyes were attracted.

I saw her fingers flying, skillfully kneading noodles of different lengths, and then rolled them in the oil pan, and the specially made noodles swelled.

Zhao Feicui quickly picked up the yellowing noodles and put them aside to cool.

This busy, just two quarters passed.

On Zhen Miao's side, she still took a piece of dough and kneaded it slowly. The dough mixed with honey was pale yellow, and she couldn't tell what shape she kneaded, but at this time, she was already kneading the third one.

At this time, the light was full, and everyone could see everything clearly, but the two of them were half-finished products at the moment, and they couldn't see the clues, so they both held their breath and continued to watch.

Zhao Feicui picked up a bright red apple and carved it stroke by stroke with a knife, with a rare serious and focused expression.

Princess Chuxia breathed a sigh of relief, and chatted and laughed softly with the people next to her.

She didn't like to see Zhao Feicui much, the two always played together, and they were actually very active in private, but if she lost to Zhen Miao today, her face would be dull.

"Don't worry, Princess Feicui, sister Feicui will definitely be fine. Once I was a guest at Hou's mansion, but I saw with my own eyes the duckling she carved with an apple, not to mention how vivid it is." Gossip, showing the news that you know.

Sure enough, as time passed, what Zhao Feicui carved was a little duck.

The head of the duckling has been removed from the red skin, the duck head and duck bill are carved out of the yellow flesh, and the red wings are carved into feathers, which is really vivid and vivid.

Zhao Feicui looked at her work and smiled proudly.

Carving ducklings with apples does not actually require very good knife skills. The most rare thing is this ingenuity and novelty. Compared with the common painting and writing on melons and fruits, it is much stronger.

Today's performance seems to be better than usual.

The more Zhao Feicui looked, the more satisfied she became, when she suddenly heard an exclamation.

"Look at Zhen Si, what is she carving!"

"God, is it a peony flower? It's so beautiful and so similar!"

Zhao Feicui's face stiffened, and she looked up at Zhen Miao.

Zhen Miao pressed the watermelon with one hand and the carving knife in the other, carving on the watermelon like a fly.

The green melon skin is used as the leaf, with distinct veins, and layers of peony petals as thin as cicada wings bloom. The inside is bright red and the outside is pink and white. It looks natural and fresh. A freshly bloomed peony is in full bloom.

The flowers and fruits of the two have been completed, and they are placed side by side, and the maid walks around and invites people to watch.

Although Zhao Feicui's little duck carved out of an apple is good, compared with the big peony flower that Zhen Miao carved out of a watermelon, it is like the gap between a child and a master.

Without the judges, the winner is already clear.

Luo Tianxuan stared at Zhen Miao on the stage, and saw that she gently put down the knife and kept rubbing her fingers, but there was an undisguised smile on her face, which was bright and bright.

The game has come to an end, the sky is starting to darken, countless lanterns are lit, and the reflected stage is still as bright as day.

The beauty under the lamp, her beautiful face shines, I don't know how many eyes Akira has spent.

Luo Tianxuan's feelings towards Zhen Miao became complicated.

He always felt that she was not the same person from the previous life, but he couldn't see the same sign of her rebirth.

Faintly, he became a little curious about this marriage from his original resistance and disgust.
