Chapter 102 Little Trick

Mu Qingqing didn’t know who she met, but she didn’t care anyway, so she didn’t tell her second brother.

The weather was very good that day and a dragon boat race was being held in the capital. Manman invited her to join.

The two little girls were chattering in the front, while Master Lu Qinghe Banxia and Manman's maid were following behind, also whispering something.

Mu Qingqing couldn't help but ask Manman, "Manman, is Princess Aunt looking for someone for you?"

Manman's face was full of shyness, and she couldn't help but pinch Mu Qingqing's waist.

"My mother found a family for me. He's the eldest son of an official family. This time, my mother checked it out carefully. His character and his parents are all good!"

Mu Qingqing nodded. As long as the princess checked it carefully, there must be no problem.

The two of them were joking with each other in low voices and came to the lake, which was surrounded by people.

Manman had the servants take their seats long ago, so it was easy for her to run to the front.

There were dragon boat races, including those from the royal palace and some private individuals, wearing different costumes, and the names of various prefectures were carved on the dragon boats.

Mu Qingqing hasn't watched it for a long time. She has been busy practicing in the past two years.

The two were discussing the dragon boat in front of them when they suddenly felt their skirts being tugged.

Mu Qingqing looked down and saw a little girl about four years old, with her hair combed and wearing a pink dress. She looked very cute.

At this time, the little girl blinked and stretched out her hands.

"Sister, hold me, Yanyan wants to watch the dragon boat race."

Her voice was soft and she looked at Mu Qingqing expectantly.

Mu Qingqing's heart moved slightly, and she squatted down to look at the little girl.

"Little sister, where are your adults?"

The little girl unconsciously glanced to the right. Mu Qingqing looked over and saw only a crowd of people. She had no idea whose child it was.

Mu Qingqing smiled and said, "Your name is Yanyan, right? I can't hold you, so why don't you stand in the front? There's no one in the front, so they will definitely see you!"

The little girl pouted and immediately became unhappy, "Sister, you lied to me. Everyone told me that sister would definitely hug me."

Well, this little girl sounds difficult to deal with. The other party's brother? Why did she come to me?
Mu Qingqing coaxed in a low voice, "Be good, Yanyan, just stay in front. Look at how thin your sister is. She definitely can't hold you!"

If it was a child she knew and looked cute, Mu Qingqing would hug him, but...

Mu Qingqing stood up straight and ignored the little girl. The little girl looked at her aggrievedly for a while before turning around.

Manman was not stupid and knew that there was something wrong with the little girl. The two of them moved aside and let the maid and servants stand behind the little girl.

Soon, the race began. This was the starting point and the end point, and the dragon boat circled the river.

The neat shouts and the cheers from the surroundings were deafening, and Mu Qingqing couldn't help but cover her ears.

Suddenly, several scholars in long gowns gathered together.

"Today, how about we write a poem on the theme of dragon boat racing?"

"Okay, haha, I have two very good poems here. Today, I will definitely make you strong!"

"The tough ones buy everyone a drink!"

The voices of several people were very loud, and the people around looked over curiously. In addition, these people had a natural awe for scholars, so they quickly surrounded those people.

Mu Qingqing and the other person happened to be not far away, and they were also inside.

"I'll come first!"

A scholar shook his head and recited a poem. Although it was not particularly outstanding, everyone applauded out of respect.

Soon, one poem after another was read out. There were good ones and bad ones. Everyone appreciated them one by one, and Mu Qingqing listened with great interest.

Suddenly, a gentle voice came out, "I'll sing a song too."

The crowd parted and a gap appeared, revealing Shen Xiucai in white. Mu Qingqing raised her eyebrows slightly, recognizing him. Suddenly, she heard the little girl named Yanyan whispered, "Brother!"

Mu Qingqing looked at the scholar with a scrutinizing gaze.

Manman, who was standing by, came over curiously and asked, "Who is this scholar? He's so handsome!"

Mr. Shen's appearance is too deceptive and is most attractive to little girls who are just beginning to fall in love.

Mu Qingqing shook her head. She really didn't know the other person's name, and she didn't have a good impression of him.

"My last name is Shen. There are no seniors here, so I would like to ask you for advice."

She is gentle and polite, young and good-looking, so it is a mutual communication, so naturally they would not disagree.

At this moment, someone suddenly recognized Shen Xiucai, "I've seen you before, you are Shen Xiucai? The young genius Shen Xiucai, right?"

Others also started discussing, "That Mr. Shen? He is said to be able to win three prizes in the imperial examination this year?"

"Wow, that's amazing, you're indeed a genius, you look so good!"

Mr. Shen is a well-known figure and has a good reputation in the Beijing circle.

He lived with his widowed mother and younger sister, and was ambitious. He passed the imperial examination and became a scholar at the age of fourteen.

Such a halo is all concentrated on one person, giving people a sense of unreality.

Chu Manman had admiration in her eyes. She opened the fan and put it to her lips, then whispered to Mu Qingqing.

"It's Mr. Shen, what a genius! My father said that this man will soar to the sky!"

Chu Manman's eyes were filled with infatuation, but Mu Qingqing looked indifferent and did not comment.

Shen Xiucai repeatedly said that he was not worthy of the title. "I am not worthy of the title. I am not a genius. I just have some inspiration occasionally..."

He touched his head embarrassedly, but Mu Qingqing clearly saw the pride in his eyes.

As expected, none of them is easy to deal with. No, I have to remind Manman next time that she must not be fooled by this person’s appearance.

When Shen Xiucai looked over inadvertently, he happened to see Mu Qingqing staring at him in a daze.

"Nonsense girl," Shen Xiucai cursed in his heart.

With a snap, Mr. Shen opened the folding fan in his hand, pondered for a moment, and then recited a poem.

After it was read, everyone present fell silent. It was indeed great and there was nothing wrong with it. The words were well chosen, showing the excitement of the dragon boat race and everyone's determination to win the championship.

Hiss, someone hissed softly, suddenly came to his senses, and immediately led the applause.

"Good, good poem, you are indeed a young genius."

"Mr. Shen is indeed a genius. Any poem he writes is so good!"

Shen Xiucai looked modest, holding Mu Qingqing's arm, and murmured excitedly, "That's amazing, Qingqing, did you hear that?"

Mu Qingqing came back to her senses instantly, leaning forward to whisper in Manman's ear with a frown on her face, "Calm down, don't be tempted by that appearance. Don't forget, you're already engaged."

Chu Manman's expression froze. She glanced at Mu Qingqing dimly, muttering to herself.

"Really? Can't I just fantasize about it?"

Seeing that everyone present was congratulating him, Shen Xiucai waved his hands humbly.

Mu Qingqing looked at the person in front of her for two seconds, then looked away, intending to continue watching the dragon boat race with Manman.

At this moment, there was a sudden commotion.

"Yan Yan, my Yan Yan... Did you see a little girl? She is about four or five years old, wearing pink clothes..."

The woman's voice was tearful, and she kept asking people questions.
