Chapter 44 Hu is the Rule
Hu Chengqian seemed to have discovered something extraordinary in an instant, so he went straight forward and took a closer look.

As Mrs. Su said, the aroma of milk is tangy.

As he stood closer, he became more and more surprised——

The whole carving is not more than one knife, but one knife is not less.

Exquisite!

vivid!

Even the woodcarving is a rare masterpiece.

Shen Weiluo bowed to Hu Chengqian with a smile, and picked up the knife in hand.

"Wei Luo borrowed grandma's birthday peach today and dedicated it to the adults!"

After saying that, she leaned over slightly, moved the blade, and the longevity peach on the carved table landed firmly on the blade.

The tabletop under the knife is so smooth.

Shen Weiluo carefully put the longevity peach on the blade into a plate, and presented it to Hu Chengqian.

Hu Chengqian took it, took a spoonful, and put it in his mouth.

The eyes of all the guests were focused on Hu Chengqian.

Eyes do not blink.

After a few breaths, a smile overflowed on Hu Chengqian's face, eyes full of disbelief.

"Slightly sweet taste, full of milky aroma, it melts in the mouth, it is really made of cow's milk!"

Everyone was stunned.

How can it be?

"Impossible, I don't believe it!"

A red figure instantly stood up.

When everyone looked around, they realized that it was Li Yueyang, Miss Li Yueyang, Minister of the Ministry of Rites.

Li Yueyang pointed at Shen Weiluo, and said angrily:

"I'm sure that only Shoutao is made of cow's milk, and the others, I dare say it's not cow's milk!"

Hu Chengqian's face sank, and he turned around with a flick of his sleeves.

By saying this, the woman questioned his judgment in public.

He, Hu Chengqian, has always been stingy!
Hu Chengqian immediately snorted coldly, flicked his sleeves, and cupped his fists at Song Yunzhang, the prince on the throne.

"Since someone questioned Hu's partiality, I'd like to invite His Royal Highness to come and check it out, lest someone make sarcastic remarks!"

Without hesitation, the prince immediately nodded and stood up.

He stepped forward a few steps, stood in front of the carving, bent down and looked at it carefully.

Song Yunzhang liked literature and ink since he was a child, and cherished elegant things very much.

This work is no exception.

He watched for a long time before he took the knife from Shen Weiluo, and cut off a small section of pine branch from the most inconspicuous branch of the green pine.

I took a spoonful, brought it to my mouth, savored it carefully, and couldn't help nodding in praise.

"As the teacher said, the carvings in front of me are indeed made of milk and have a faint aroma of mugwort.

It seems that Ms. Shen San used wormwood juice as a dye to show the greenness of the green pines! "

Guess, the white crane's crest is dyed with carrot juice, and the pink headdress on the boy's head is dyed with violet flowers! "

Shen Weiluo nodded in agreement one by one, and praised the prince for being wise!
Song Yunzhang looked at the beauty in front of him and couldn't help but praise:
"Such craftsmanship and ingenuity are rare in the world!"

When everyone heard what Prince Song Yunzhang said, even though they still had doubts in their hearts, they were inconvenient to speak out.

Those high-status and courageous ones stepped forward and praised the carved flowers.

Facing Shen Weiluo's exquisite appearance, she froze in place for a moment.

I'm afraid only such a beautiful woman can have such an exquisite heart!

Su Qiying stepped forward like a monkey, secretly clicking her tongue while admiring the carved flowers.

"Tsk tsk, sister Shen, your hands are too skillful! Look, the old lady's expression is too lifelike, and that boy, hey, his eyes are very similar to yours!"

Mrs. Su looked at Shen Weiluo with a smile, and then looked at Mrs. Shen.

"Old sister, this granddaughter, is really smart. I have lived most of my life, and this is the first time I have met such a smart child!"

Mrs. Shen looked at Shen Weiluo's left hand with a moved expression.

The child's left hand was always hidden in the sleeve, and when she was just holding the plate, she could see clearly——

There are cloth scarves wrapped around several fingers, the same color as the clothes.

If you don't look carefully, you won't be able to see it for a while.

The child has really suffered!

Su Qiying had an idea, and immediately leaned forward and hugged Mrs. Su's arm.

"Grandma, when it's your birthday, why don't you ask sister Shen to make one too, it's novel and special, it's much more precious than those jade jewels!"

Madam Su's heart skipped a beat, she looked at Shen Weiluo with a smile in her eyes.

Before she could speak, Shen Weiluo bowed and behaved decently.

"It is Wei Luo's blessing to be in the eyes of the old lady. Wei Luo will definitely make good preparations and not let the old lady down!"

Mrs. Su praised her again and again, and she couldn't hide the joy in her eyes.

All of a sudden, those prestigious families surrounded Mrs. Shen and Shen Weiluo.

Want to book early.

Those who reacted slowly also surrounded Mrs. Liu, the third wife of Shen.

How could Mrs. Liu have received such high attention, and she was embarrassed for a while.

Song Yungu sat on the seat, looked at Shen Weiluo through the crowd, and subconsciously rubbed the emerald ring on his thumb.

Xinshou picked up the wine cup at hand and started to taste it leisurely.

——Not to mention, the fine wine that the Yongning Houfu served today is really extraordinary!
Luo Qifei smiled and picked up the wine cup at hand, "Qifei respects Your Highness!"

"And I!"

Shen Qingyuan came over with a wine cup, full of vigor.

"Thank you Your Highness and Mr. Luo for the honor, Qingyuan respects both of you!"

The three pushed and changed glasses, and drank three glasses of wine in the blink of an eye.

I just feel refreshed!
As for why the three of them were happy, the three of them had a tacit understanding and didn't say anything.

Everyone finally returned to their seats, Prince Song Yunzhang pretended to leave, but Hu Chengqian kept him.

Hu Chengqian looked at Shen Weiluo, "Does Miss Shen's work have a name?"

Yes, fondant cake!

But that is a modern product!
As for how to explain "fondant", the process is too complicated to explain clearly in one or two sentences.

So, Shen Weiluo shook his head with a smile.

"Time is too tight, I haven't had time to pick a name..."

Hu Chengqian nodded and bowed to Prince Song Yunzhang.

"Your Highness, please give him a name!"

Song Yunzhang looked at it for a long time, and after a thought, he blurted out:

"It's called 'Beauty's Birthday'!"

Hu Chengqian nodded in praise, and continued:
"May I ask, Your Highness, where does this 'beauty's birthday gift' rank among all the birthday gifts today?"

Song Yunzhang subconsciously took a look at Shen Weizhi's Longevity Essay, and his gaze finally stayed on the carving.

"The number one is the 'Beauty Presenting Her Birthday'!"

Hu Chengqian nodded, fisted with both hands, and bowed to the top of his head.

"Hu has no talent, but fortunately His Majesty favored him to select talents for the Imperial College, and Hu announced——

The third lady of the Shen family, Shen Weiluo, was elected as a special recruit of the Imperial College with a good grade of No.1! "

As soon as Hu Chengqian finished speaking, the whole banquet fell silent.

The next moment, thunderous applause rang out.

The banquet was pushed to a climax in an instant.

Everyone toasted to congratulate Mrs. Shen and Mrs. Shen.

Shen Weiluo looked at the commotion in front of him stupidly, froze in place, moved his eyes from Hu Chengqian's face to Song Yungu's body, but still didn't react.

I saw Song Yungu nodding towards her, with the corners of his mouth slightly upturned.

Shen Weiluo never thought that it would end like this.

All this happened so suddenly, it was like a dream!
Hu Chengqian's decision still angered those who looked down on Shen Weiluo.

Li Yueyang stood up abruptly, eyes full of anger.

"My lord, it's not fair. To select talents, you must be excellent in all aspects. How can you only look at one side?
Also, what are the rules for the selection of adults? "

"rule?"

Hu Chengqian smiled proudly, "Hu is the rule!"
