Chapter 66 Who's ugly and who's embarrassed (Part [-])

Those expressions seemed to be contemptuous or disdainful, but people of their status would not show it clearly.

Originally, it was very common to show off one's talent in front of the wives and wives of various families, and as Princess Rongjia said, there were really not many opportunities to show off one's talent in front of so many wives and wives.

However, because of this, the thoughts of the fourth lady of the Wei family are ready to come out.

There are two kinds of dignitaries in Shangjing City. One is the hairpin tassels that have been passed down from generation to generation. They have formed a certain scale of families. To put it bluntly, one or two of these families have rebelled. Not stable.

The other is the emerging dignitaries.

What does that mean?It is that they have no family background, and rely on the imperial examinations alone to ascend to heaven, and they have jumped into the ranks of the powerful.

It is the upstart as the saying goes.

Generations of Zanying families have always looked down on such a humble official, so what if you hold power in your hands, so what if you are reused by the sage?Nei Li is just a vulgar, savage, inferior person who doesn't know how to be polite.

And the most convenient way for such emerging dignitaries to integrate into the circle of these aristocratic families is to marry.

And to be able to marry these aristocratic families who claim to be superior, one must have capital, right?Without a certain amount of capital, people are unwilling to look at you.

As a result, the gatherings among these dignitaries have become a springboard for many new dignitaries to marry with aristocratic families. As long as they can show their style in front of people from major families, their reputation will naturally rise, and men will have more confidence in asking for marriage. , When a woman marries, she doesn't have to worry about no one caring about her.

This Wei family is one of the new dignitaries, and this Wei Siniang has reached Jiji a few days ago, but she has not married yet. It is not difficult to understand that she would want to show off at this flower feast.

The only thing that surprised everyone was that Princess Rongjia actually supported her.

Princess Rong Jia is the elder sister of the Holy Majesty. She often holds such banquets. It seems that she likes to be lively, but anyone with a brain knows that there may be the meaning of the Holy Majesty behind this!
Recently, this Wei Shangshu is indeed very worthy of being used by the sage, and it is not difficult to understand that Princess Rongjia will support Wei Siniang in person.

After Princess Rongjia's words fell, a little lady in a light yellow top and a rose red pomegranate skirt slowly stood up in the guest table.

But seeing that she was beautiful and quiet, with a faint blush on her small face, and her posture was considered graceful, Yingying saluted and said: "His Royal Highness Xie Zhang Princess, it is appreciated by all of you to be able to perform piano skills in front of all wives and ladies." Guiding is my honor.

But my son's piano skills are not good, and he can't be called Xianle. I hope all the ladies and ladies will not laugh at her. "

When she made this statement, Princess Rongjia immediately clapped her hands, and several maidservants immediately brought up a Guqin and put it in an open space in the middle.

Wei Siniang went to sit behind the piano, plucked the strings lightly, and soon, the fresh and elegant sound of the piano sounded in the backyard.

Fu Shijin didn't know the piano, and he didn't have the nerve to appreciate those elegant arts. After listening to it for a long time, he still couldn't figure out why. He only thought that this song should be very helpful for sleeping.

However, after seeing the expressions on the faces of the surrounding guests slowly becoming intoxicated, and some of the wives showed a bit of admiration on their faces, she guessed that Wei Siniang really played the Guqin with a few brushes.

After the song was over, Wei Siniang stood up and bowed gracefully in the direction of Princess Rongjia.

Eldest Princess Rong Jia clapped her hands slowly, the wrinkles on her face seemed to burst out of laughter, and she said with a smile: "Good! Good! A piece of "Pei Lan", which is elegant and deep, but it does not lose Lan Shengkonggu , The far-reaching artistic conception that no one is self-sufficient!

Wei Siniang is too self-effacing, if she is not proficient in this kind of qin art, others will be even less able to show it! "

The blush on Wei Siniang's face deepened, but she was neither humble nor condescending. The corners of her mouth were slightly pursed into a smile, and she said, "His Royal Highness thank you for your praise. My son's piano skills still have a lot to improve."

Eldest Princess Rongjia said so, no matter what the other guests think, on the surface they must join Princess Rongjia in praising Wei Siniang.

There was another burst of applause and praise from all directions in the courtyard.

Suddenly, an innocent voice sounded from one of the directions, "Although Wei Siniang plays the piano well, it still seems to have less charm than Guan Liuniang's!"

Although the voice was not loud, it seemed particularly abrupt and out of place amidst all the praise.

Immediately, most of the people present turned their gazes to the direction from which the voice came.

Fu Shijin also looked over, and raised his eyebrows when he realized that the person speaking was the little lady in pink and blue who was with Guan Liuniang and the others just now.

Although she still doesn't know which family this little lady belongs to, but this kind of powerful family is very particular about the banquet ranking, the higher the status of the family, the higher the ranking.

Looking at where she was sitting, neither the front nor the back, it was still some distance away from Guan Liuniang's seat, so she knew that her family was not that prominent.

Looking at Guan Liuniang again, she saw that she was suddenly named, she seemed to be panicked, but there was no trace of anger on her face.

Fu Shijin understood immediately, and the corner of his mouth curled coolly.

At this moment, Yang Wuniang, who was sitting next to Guan Liuniang and the others, also spoke, raised her eyebrows at Guan Liuniang, and said, "That's right, Liuniang's piano is better! Otherwise, Liuniang will go up and play too!" a?"

Yang Wuniang sat closer to the chief seat than Guan Liuniang's, indicating that the Yang family was more powerful than the Guan family.

Guan Liuniang immediately looked as if she was riding a tiger, and just at this time, Princess Rongjia also said, "Hehe, it's rare for us to get together today, so you don't have to be restrained, let's play the piano as your own sisters. Guan Liuniang shouldn't ruin everyone's luck, right?"

Only then did Guan Liuniang stand up slowly, saluted and said, "Since that's the case, I'd rather be respectful than follow orders."

After a pause, she said softly: "I haven't made any preparations this time, and I can't think of what song to play at the moment. Otherwise, I'll play "Peilan" too."

Seeing Wei Siniang's face without a smile in an instant, Fu Shijin couldn't help but click his tongue twice.

The so-called bumping into shirts is not terrible, whoever is ugly is embarrassed, and the piano art competition is the same.

Different pieces of music may not be so obvious whether they are good or bad, but if two people play the same piece of music, the high and low are good or bad, but you can hear it immediately.

Guan Liuniang's little thoughts are really one after another, if this is not ancient times, she must wonder if she grew up watching "The Legend of Zhen Huan".

As soon as Guan Liuniang said this, there was a burst of whispering in the guest table.

However, Guan Liuniang's reason sounds reasonable. In the beginning, she didn't take the initiative to ask for a discussion. Everyone just felt a little strange in their hearts and didn't think too much about it.

Soon, Guan Liuniang took a seat behind the qin and lightly raised her fingers.

Even a person like Fu Shijin who knew nothing about guqin could clearly tell that Liu Niang played this pass much better than that Wei Siniang!
It is obviously the same piece of music, the same piano, but the timbre coming from Guan Liuniang's fingers is inexplicably clearer and more melodious, with more emotional rendering and fuller emotions.

If Fu Shijin sums it up in one sentence—Guan Liuniang's "Pei Lan" feels more sleep-promoting than Wei Siniang's!

After the song was over, before Princess Rongjia could speak, there was bursts of applause and uncontrollable praise from all the wives and ladies.

Looking at Wei Siniang standing aside, she almost lost her face.

Han Sijin, who was sitting beside Fu Shijin, also forgot to cry at this moment, let out a soft snort, and said, "It's just a woman who was born by a farmer's woman in the countryside. Is it a phoenix? Dreaming! At this moment, Liu Niang can't lift her head up at all!"

Han Siya on the side immediately glared at her, and said with extreme forbearance: "Ru'er, shut up!"

Han Siru reluctantly stopped talking, but looked at Fu Shijin with resentful eyes.

This woman, like that Wei Siniang, should make a fool of herself in front of everyone, only then will she know how much she is worth!

At this moment, the innocent voice sounded again, "Guan Liuniang's piano sound is as usual, no one can compare to it! Speaking of which, I remember that Mrs. Fu who was lodged in Ningguo's mansion before was very good. I said in public that Liu Niang is nothing special.

Ah, Mrs. Fu also came to the flower viewing banquet today, right?Sorry, I forgot..."

 Xiao Jin'er: Dare to call my name?You are very brave.

  Someone Han: Ma'am, don't be afraid, I will support you!
  Hey, thank you all for your small tickets~
