Chapter 855 Talking (Part Two)
Compared with the annoying Wu Hanyu, this cute little girl who is a few years younger than her is really interesting.

I don't know if it's because the people in the audience are talking too loudly. As the final decider of this competition, Mrs. Cheng couldn't help but frowned, turned her head and said to Mrs. Du who was sitting beside her: "Mrs. Wu, Ling Ai is Is it not because you feel unwell? What happened today..."

Before Mrs. Du could speak, Mrs. Jiang, who was sitting on the other side, snorted first, and said sarcastically, "I'm not feeling well, I think it's because I dare not come out to be ashamed."

The two women sitting in the middle are the wives of the Chen and Wu families in Jiangnan who dislike each other, Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Du.

Hearing Jiang's sneer, Du's nose wrinkled, and her slender and long eyebrows were about to stand up: "Jiang Yue'e, stop talking nonsense! Your daughter doesn't dare to come out to shame people! My daughter is very good, There is nothing to be afraid of!"

"Oh? Really?" Jiang raised her eyebrows and rolled her eyes: "Since I'm not afraid of being embarrassed, I took off the curtain, my daughter is standing there openly! Unlike some people, she doesn't even have her true face. Don’t dare to reveal it! I don’t know if the person inside is your daughter!”

"you!"

Mrs. Du was so choked that she simply ignored her, but turned her head and apologized to Mrs. Cheng who looked a little embarrassed: "Mrs. Cheng, I'm really sorry, Yu'er caught a cold a few days ago, it was very serious, doctor He said that it is best not to catch a cold in the wind, so as not to aggravate the condition. Originally, I wanted her to give up this competition, but, alas, this child who is addicted to embroidery insisted on insisting on taking part in the competition."

As she spoke, this Du Shi was tearful, she looked so shy, she really lived up to her Du Meijiao's name.

"Well, it turned out to be because of the wind and cold!" Du's hand was held tightly, Madam Cheng refused or agreed, and it was difficult to make a decision at the moment.

"Yes, Mrs. Cheng." Mrs. Du wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, looked dotingly at her thin daughter standing on the stage, and said worriedly: "I have tried to persuade her for many days, but it is still difficult to persuade her." , Hey, as a mother, I don't feel very well. I also ask Madam to be considerate and considerate of me, and give my family Yu'er a hand."

"This……"

After all, it is still impossible to remove the curtain fence. Mrs. Cheng looked embarrassed. If it were other ladies in the capital, she would definitely find an excuse to evade it, but now this year's emperor businessman, she even With status in Beijing, it's not good to refute Du Shi's face just because of such a trivial matter.

But without Madam Cheng speaking, someone will speak for her.

"Oh, Du Meijiao, did you forget to take your medicine when you went out today? Or was your head bumped by a carriage on the way here? You can say such things, you really have face!"

Mrs. Jiang snorted coldly, and she didn't care about Mrs. Du's face at all when she said it, not to mention Mrs. Du, even the faces of Mrs. Cheng, Ru Xiuniang and Rui Xiuniang who were listening on the side were a little embarrassed.

On the contrary, Cheng Haoxuan, who was bored playing with the jade pendant, suddenly laughed "hey", leaned over here with great interest, and added without hesitation after watching the excitement: "Then according to Mrs. Chen's meaning, it should be What can I do to keep Ms. Wu from the wind and cold and continue the game?"

Mrs. Cheng frowned and gave Cheng Haoxuan a wink, but this kid deliberately confronted his mother. Not only did he not shut up, but he pretended to be innocent and "concerned" and said: "Mother, did you also get a cold? Look at you My eyes are cramping."

Mrs. Cheng almost spit out a mouthful of old blood. Her eyes are not cramping, but her hands are cramping. She really wants to beat this kid to get back to normal!
Jiang pretended not to see the lawsuit between the mother and son, touched the emerald jade bracelet on his wrist with a smile, turned his head and said with a smile: "The Wu family is the emperor's merchant this year, don't they have any suitable fabrics for it?" Will Ling Ai solve this problem?"

Appropriate fabric?Now Mrs. Cheng didn't care to stop her son from talking, her eyes lit up. As a person who is obsessed with embroidery, she is also very passionate about rare fabrics.

But Mrs. Du scolded Mrs. Jiang fiercely in her heart. The matter of the imperial business is a contest between men. She, a woman, actually mentioned it at this time. Do you really think that she can also be an imperial business?

"Hmph, imperial merchants are men's business. As a woman, I just need to take care of the back house at home. I don't understand those fabrics, and I don't need to understand." Du raised his chin and said deeply. Practice the saying that a woman without talent is virtue.

Cheng Haoxuan curled his lips boredly, and even Mrs. Cheng lost a little affection for Mrs. Du.

Jiang sneered, and sarcastically said mercilessly: "Oh, by the way, why did I forget that your Wu family still has several concubines! There are also two sons from the original marriage, no wonder you don't have time to ask Mrs. Wu What about the fabric at home! Tsk tsk, I really sympathize with you, look at me, although I have a bastard, but he is very respectful to me, no, I went to Zuixian Tower early to set up a celebration banquet for his sister!"

The corners of Du's mouth twitched. As a stepmother, what she hated to hear the most in her life was the word original match, but this Jiang Yue'e always poked her sore feet on this matter!

Seeing the gunpowder smoke everywhere, Mrs. Cheng hurried out to smooth things over: "You two ladies, please calm down, our competition is about to start. Look, the girls have drawn lots and sat down at their seats!"

Sure enough, when the wives Chen and Wu were fighting, the twenty contestants had already drawn their lottery numbers in order from No. 20 to No. [-].

Lin Wei drew No. [-], which happened to be in the middle of the second row. For Lin Wei, who was introverted, this position was excellent. There were people around, so she would not expose herself to the eyes of everyone, and formed a unique position for her. A relatively confined space gave her a somewhat sense of security.

Lin Wei looked around and breathed a sigh of relief.

Although Tian Xuan was behind her, although she was not right next to each other, she felt more at ease when someone she knew was behind her.

The number one ranked Chen Leyao was on the side of the second row, while Wu Hanyu, who was wearing a curtain fence, was chosen to be in the first row because of a joke. Her arguments grew stronger.

Seeing that the people's anger is about to be aroused, it is impossible for Mrs. Cheng to throw away the good reputation of Jiangyan Pavilion for more than ten years just because of Wu Hanyu.She glanced at Mrs. Du, who also had an unsightly face, and her thoughts changed sharply. Even if she offended the Wu family, wouldn't there still be the Chen family?Relatively speaking, she admired the Chen family's wife Jiang Shi more.
