Chapter 278
Wu Shoufu looked calm, walked up to the emperor, bowed and saluted, and said: "Your Majesty, today is the Shangyuan Festival, and the old minister has a suggestion. I don't know if I should say it or not."

"Wu Aiqing, but it's okay to talk!"

"Your Majesty, today is the Shangyuan Festival. The old minister thinks that we should make a trick and let these little girls show off their talents for His Majesty and colleagues to appreciate. The emperor thinks that the old minister's proposal is appropriate!"

As soon as the emperor heard Wu Shoufu's words, he understood a little bit. Presumably, the little girl of the Wu family must have learned a lot of talents at home on weekdays.Today I want to show off in front of the big guys. "In Wu Aiqing's opinion, how are they going to show it?"

"Of course, girls under the age of ten are required to participate. For the sake of fairness, the talents of the little girls in the arms can be performed by their mothers." As soon as Wu Shoufu's words came out, anyone with a discerning eye knew that Wu Shoufu was going to Lord Yanning Yes, because there are not many children still in the arms here, Princess Chengyue is one of them.

Knowing the Wu family's plan, many people secretly accused Wu Shoufu of being despicable.Because the daughter-in-law of Yanning County competed with a group of girls under the age of ten, it would be dishonorable if she won, and she would lose her face if she lost.

After hearing Wu Shoufu's words, the emperor didn't understand anything. This old fox wants to "kill two birds with one stone." One is to praise his granddaughter, and the other is to belittle Yanning Junjun. His mother has lost to others, not to mention his upbringing. out daughter.

Seeing Zhu Xiuyan's complacent expression, Yun Ran leaned over to Su Jin and said, "This bad idea must have come from Zhu Xiuyan, as the saying goes, what kind of person comes up with what kind of idea."

Su Jin just smiled and didn't say anything!Instead, Gu Chen looked at his daughter-in-law worriedly.The two have been married for so long, and apart from occasionally hearing his wife humming a ditty, he really has never seen her, and she has any other talents.

As if in agreement, Su Jin turned her head and glanced at him, and said, "Sister-in-law, you want to see what talent you can show as a wife." When Su Jin said this, Gu Chen's heartbeat began to speed up. He knew that his daughter-in-law My son never said: "Lie."

Seeing that everyone was silent, Wu Shoufu continued to speak: "Your Majesty, since everyone has no objection, we might as well start."

"Wait! Your Majesty, I have something to ask." Su Jin hugged Yue'er and bowed.

"Yanning, but it's okay to say!"

"Your Majesty, I do not agree with Mr. Wu's proposal. Among the girls present, only my youngest daughter, Yue'er, is the youngest. It is acceptable for me to show my talent on behalf of my daughters, but I am afraid that it will be unfair to these girls. Therefore, The minister suggested that after these girls have shown their talents, the mothers of these girls should jointly nominate a mother of one of the girls. I am willing to perform talents with the mother of the girl who was selected."

As soon as Su Jin finished speaking, many people turned their eyes to Zhu Xiuyan.Xin said: Lord Yanning wanted to save face, and wanted to perform talents with the mother of the girl who was nominated. The nominated person must be Zhu Xiuyan, who was once known as the most talented girl in the capital.

After hearing Su Jin's words, Zhu Xiuyan was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled disdainfully.Do you think it's embarrassing to lose to me?Then Madam Ben will embarrass you even more.

But Wu Shoufu acted indifferent. In short, if this village woman competes with anyone, she will definitely lose.He has confidence in his granddaughter, and that's because he personally instructed her to sit in that seat.And his daughter-in-law, these years, has long been famous in this capital.I haven't heard of any noble lady who can beat her, let alone this village woman.

Thinking of Yanning Junjun who has lost all his face and face after a few hours, see if you still have the face to stay in this capital, you have to go back to the countryside early.

Seeing the disdainful eyes of the Wu family, Su Jin, as always, did not give them half a look.

The talent show of the little girls is still very formal, and the order is decided by lottery.Looking at a dozen little girls, ranging in age from five to six years old, all of them came out in a regular manner to perform their own talents.There are those who play the piano, those who compose poems, those who write, and those who paint.

Only Wu Mingzhu chose the dance, and the name of the dance was actually her mother's famous work "Flying Sky." Seeing the girl dancing with her sleeves in a dignified manner, Zhu Xiuyan looked at Su Jin arrogantly.Secretly said: My son has learned my flying dance to the fifth level, I'm afraid you, a village woman, will be dumbfounded!

If only Su Jin knew what she thought.I will definitely tell her, "My dear, you are overthinking! The flying sky I have seen, I am afraid that you will not be able to catch up with ten mountains."

Finally, the talent show of these little girls came to an end. Zhu Xiuyan had already changed her clothes and stood there eager to try.She knew that no one else would be promoted where she was.Sure enough, all the girls' mothers named Mrs. Wu Shao.

It is also an honor to hear my name and be mentioned by my former defeated generals without accident.

Zhu Xiuyan was also not polite, "Since everyone has recommended me, the concubine will show her shame." After finishing speaking, she proudly walked past Su Jin and walked to the middle platform.

With her clothes on, Su Jin knew that she must also want to dance to the sky, after all, the mother and daughter were dressed in similar clothes.This has brought me some convenience. If I listen to this song again, it should be almost the same.

Sizhu Zhile remembered again that many people looked at the stage with their eyes, but their mouths were whispering, nothing more than: "As expected of the most talented woman in Beijing back then, this graceful dance is unmatched by anyone."

While dancing on the high stage, Zhu Xiuyan carefully watched the reactions of the audience.Under the envious eyes of everyone, they looked at Su Jin with even more disdain. "Villager, today I must drive you out of the capital to make room for my son."

At the end of the song, Zhu Xiuyan walked off the stage briskly, and walked past Su Jin showing off. When she walked past Su Jin, she said arrogantly: "A village woman, you still want to fight with me? Huh! You really overestimated yourself. "

Su Jin ignored her, just put Yue'er in Gu Chen's arms, got up, walked to a big drum, picked up the drumsticks and hit it, the muffled sound of the drum startled everyone.Everyone present was taken aback?
Thinking secretly: Could it be that the Lord of Yanning has no talent to show off, so he can only use "beating drums to cheer" as his talent?
With this realization, Zhu Xiuyan took the lead in laughing. "Beating the drum? That's the behavior of a rough man! Could it be that Lord Yanning wants to compete with the rough man in beating the drum?"
