Ordinary clear day

Chapter 187 Dim Sum
Yuanning blushed slightly, and said in a low voice, "Third sister...you...you brought..." Shuning pursed her lips and smiled, seeing no one looking at her from the corner of her eyes, she reached out and shook Yuanning hand, secretly stuffed that piece of dim sum into Yuanning's hand, and said in a low voice: "I brought a few pieces, you can eat quickly."

The corners of Yuanning's mouth curled up, but she held back her head and looked around, then turned her back to eat, then turned around and asked: "Is there anything else..." Shuning smiled, and took her hand again.Yuan Ning blushed, and said: "I haven't eaten since last night, my mother won't allow me to drink water all day today..." She lowered her head embarrassedly, and turned her back again.

Shuning was surprised.In fact, she herself only ate something this morning, and didn't eat lunch. That was to avoid the need to excrete during the draft.Because this palace may not have prepared sanitary facilities for beautiful women, and even if there were, ordinary beautiful women would avoid them to prevent their bodies from smelling.Shu Ning herself was purely worried that there would be nowhere to solve it.However, I have been on a hunger strike since last night, without drinking water for a day... This is too much, a teenage girl, can you bear it?
She felt a little pity in her heart, and stuffed another piece of snack for Yuanning.What mother and sister-in-law Zhenzhen prepared for her is glutinous rice candy, which does not emit obvious odors and can satisfy hunger.

She was thinking wildly in her mind, she also stuffed a piece of candy into her mouth, before she finished chewing, Wanning woke up suddenly, and said loudly: "I want it too!" Shuning and Ai Ning were startled.Shu Ning desperately swallowed the candy, "Shhh" desperately in her mouth, and was afraid that making too much noise would arouse others' suspicion, she really broke out in a cold sweat from fright.

Wanning watched her mouth shape, her mind gradually came to her senses, and she realized that she was too reckless just now, so she smiled embarrassedly.Yuanning secretly beat her chest a few times, coughed twice, and said angrily: "Second sister is sleepy, right? Who are you grabbing something from in your dream?"

Xiunu, who was attracted by Wanning's words just now, turned her eyes away.Of course, some of them recognized Wanning, and some were amazed by her beauty, so they inevitably whispered a few words, mixed with some titters, which made the parties feel uncomfortable.

Wanning rolled her eyes at Yuanning, looked at Shuning with some grievances, and asked, "The third younger sister brought food, why didn't you tell me?" He stretched out his hand to hold Wanning's hand, and stuffed a piece of snack under her somewhat inexplicable gaze.

A flash of joy flashed across Wanning's face, Shuning whispered: "Stay away from people, don't let people see you." She nodded quickly, cleared her throat, glanced around casually, and raised her sleeves Covering your face like coughing.

Shu Ning almost rolled her eyes, stretched out her hand, turned her over, let her eat facing the wall.Yuanning looked at Wanning with a frown, tried to open her mouth a few times, but held back, turned around and looked to the other side, not knowing what to see.

Shuning asked in a low voice: "I haven't seen cousin Xuxu, where is she? She must be very hungry too?" Yuanning turned her head and replied: "The girls here are all beautiful girls with two red flags and two blue flags, Xuxu is probably in the next room here." Shuning understood, Xu Xu seemed to be the person with the white flag, and it was normal not to be in the same room.

Wanning wanted to eat even more, and held on to Shuning's hand, but Yuanning was not convinced, so she also wanted to pull, and Shuning felt a big headache.But to outsiders, it seems that among the three sisters, the most beautiful one and the less attractive one are unhappy because of the quarrel just now, and the least-looking one wants to smooth things over, but the two of them are holding on to her.The voices of the beautiful women's discussions became louder, and even people who hadn't noticed this corner turned their attention to this corner.

Shu Ning had even more headaches, and said in a low voice: "Don't pull it, if something falls out, others will know!" Wan Ning and Yuan Ning reluctantly let go of their hands after hearing this, Shu Ning sighed softly, pinched the sleeves on both sides , There were only three yuan left, and I was about to take out another piece, but suddenly I heard someone talking behind me, stopped my hands, and turned around as if nothing had happened.

It was a strange beautiful girl who appeared to be younger than the three of them. She was crisp and fresh, very shy and sweet, making people want to swallow it in one bite. It was just like the legendary "voice". The representative of loli who is soft and easy to overwhelm.She blinked her rabbit-like innocent eyes, and asked timidly: "The three sisters...are they from the Tatara family? Just... on the way here, my car... fell into a mud puddle, thank you...you guys The family... saved me..."

Shu Ning had some dark lines, what she said, if they didn't know about it, they would have thought her life would be in danger if she fell into the big mud pit with her car.But looking at such a cute girl, her face softened, and she said softly: "I dare not do it, it's just that my uncle ordered people to go, it's not our credit."

The show girl smiled shyly: "We should thank you..." Yuanning asked suddenly: "How did you know it was us? We didn't get out of the car at that time." She seemed to be startled, and even more timid : "I...I recognize your car...the one with the brand...I, I saw you get off the car..."

Wan Ning gave Yuan Ning a blank look, smiled and pulled the beautiful girl and said: "Don't pay attention to her, let's talk. My name is Wan Ning, this is my third sister Shu Ning, she is the fourth eldest Yuan Ning. We are cousins. What's your name?"

The show girl smiled shyly and introduced herself intermittently.Her boudoir name is Chang Lu, her surname is Nala's, she is from a red banner, and her father is a deputy governor.After talking with her in detail, Wanning found out that she and her mother, Nala, were actually relatives. They were distant aunts and cousins, so they felt more intimate.It's boring to stay in the house and wait all the time, and having new friends can bring a sense of freshness, and Chang Lu's personality is very endearing, so Wanning simply took her to chat, and even the two sisters put themselves in the same position. aside.

Shu Ning secretly sighed in her heart, and quietly listened to their conversation.Suddenly, she found someone tugging at her sleeve. Looking back, it was Yuan Ning, who whispered in her ear, "Third Sister...is there any more?"

Shuning pursed her lips and smiled, Yuanning like this is really cute.She lowered her sleeves to touch the hidden pocket inside, took out one and quickly transferred it to Yuanning's hand, Yuanning curled her mouth and put it away.

But Wanning noticed their actions, and hurriedly said: "Do you have any snacks for the third sister? Chang Lu is also very hungry." Chang Lu next to her looked over with a pair of watery eyes, looking at her timid It looks like no one can refuse.

Shu Ning was about to take something out, but luckily she maintained her last bit of reason, remembering that she only ate one piece and was still very hungry, and Wan Ning was the same, so she hesitated and said to her: "I... There is only one piece left, second sister, you..." Wanning was startled, secretly regretting that she shouldn't mention it in front of her new friends.

Chang Lu blinked her moist eyes, and said timidly: "I... I'm fine..." Shuning took out a piece and gave it to Wanning. Seeing Chang Lu's eagerness, Wanning hesitantly gave it to her. past.Chang Lu immediately rolled her eyes with a smile: "Thank you, Sister Wanning, you are so kind." Then she quickly glanced around and stuffed the snack into her mouth in an instant.Wanning turned her head, feeling that she was getting hungrier, she hadn't had dinner yet.

Shu Ning touched the only snack left in her sleeve, pulled Yuan Ning away, and walked away on the pretext of going to the window to get some fresh air.Wanning didn't care, she still talked with her new friend, she was a little tired from standing on her legs for a long time, so she would move around from time to time.

Shu Ning went to the window, looked outside for a few times, then hid in front of the wall next to her and quickly took out the piece of candy, was about to eat it, thought for a while, broke it in half, hid one half, and ate the other half up.She raised her head and found that Yuanning had just finished eating snacks, and the two looked at each other and smiled.Shuning pointed to the corner of her mouth, indicating that there were debris around the other's mouth.Yuanning hurriedly wiped the veil clean, and then she smiled and pulled Shuning back to her original position.

Wan Ning was having a lively conversation with Chang Lu, she said to Shu Ning with amazement: "Third sister, it turns out that Chang Lu doesn't live in Beijing, she came from Shandong, when she heard the emperor's order, she was still in Tianjin, But it's only one day and one night, and she galloped to Beijing on a fast horse."

Shu Ning was a little surprised, this is not easy.Chang Lu blushed and said, "Our family is very good at riding and shooting...it's nothing..."

At this time, a eunuch suddenly walked into the room and said loudly: "The show girls with two red flags and two blue flags are ready to stand up, it's your turn." The show girls in the room suddenly became a mess.Shuning clearly saw someone stuffing something into the sleeve quickly, and her mouth was still bulging.It turned out that there were others who brought food like her.

A thirteen or fourteen-year-old beautiful girl came over and called Chang Lu, who smiled embarrassedly: "This is my sister from the same clan, she..." Before she could finish speaking, the beautiful girl nodded hurriedly to Wanning three. Someone signaled, pulled Chang Lu up and left, and said in his mouth: "What time is it, my sister is still running around, chatting here and there, chatting one after another..."

Under the command of the eunuchs, the three Shuning sisters stood up according to the flag and age.The first to be called was the show girl under Zhenghong's flag, and the first one was Wanning.She straightened her chest and confidently followed the little eunuch who led the way out.Shu Ning waited anxiously, thinking that if she was not selected, what should she do in the talent assessment later?Anyway, the art of playing the piano is a little rusty, so I might as well play the piano.But what is a little strange is that this place is not too far from the main hall, so why didn't you hear the sound of the piano?Don't this year's show girls consider piano art as a competition item?

There were not many candidates under Zhenghong's banner, and it was her turn soon.She took a deep breath, followed the little eunuch out of the door, walked down the corridor to the main hall, met Wanning at the door, saw her smile, and took a step ahead.

Shuning paused, then raised her foot to enter the door.I saw a large screen in the middle of the hall, two tables in front, one of which was piled with rosters, two young eunuchs were recording something, behind the table in front, sat a middle-aged eunuch with a round face , smiling.

Shu Ning saluted, and reported the names of the flag subordinates, Zuo Ling, and father. The middle-aged eunuch nodded and said, "Everyone else calls me Director Tang, so you can call me that." Listen to what he said about the exam.

As a result, there is absolutely no need to show talent or anything.The manager of the hall only asked two questions, one was what it meant to have friends who came from afar, and the other was how many disciples Confucius had.

Shu Ning was very embarrassing, although she told herself that if she pretended not to know, she would probably lose the election, but being unable to answer such a simple question really insulted her IQ.She was hesitating when she suddenly heard Mr. Tang say, "Can't you answer? How could it be? Aunt Ming Lan told me that you have good talents."

Shu Ning's heart trembled, and several thoughts ran through her mind quickly. Although she finally said the answer, she was still a little nervous. Her fingers involuntarily grabbed the sleeves, feeling the somewhat hard touch, her heart moved, and she squeezed hard. Crushed the sugar inside, pretended to wipe his forehead inadvertently, and shook his sleeve lightly, some sugar crumbs fell out.

She raised her eyes to see Manager Tang's reaction, but the other party just smiled and frowned, and said: "There are good things in the girl's sleeves... In fact, every time a girl is drafted, there will be such a thing. Although the rules It is not allowed, but the candidates for the show are all young girls. It is not easy to stay up all night like this. Therefore, we old people just turn a blind eye and close our eyes. Don’t worry, little girl Girl, I won't tell anyone." He looked like "I'm a nice person and I'll help you keep a secret", Shu Ning couldn't help being a little discouraged.

Manager Tang turned around and asked someone to remember Shuning's name, and then turned to her and said, "Miss Tong has already said hello, I know what to do, don't worry." Shuning watched the little eunuch write down her name, I was at a loss for a while.How is this going?Unexpectedly, both the Queen Mother and Tong Niangniang made a move.

A young eunuch came in and said: "Director Tang, the next one is coming soon, and it's Mr. Xingbao's Gege." Director Tang hurriedly called, and then turned around with a smile and said, "This one can't be neglected. Xiao Fanzi, come here Send Miss Shuning out."

Shuning followed the little eunuch out of the palace gate, seeing Yuanning looking at her in surprise, she forced a smile and left.She didn't know how many doors she had passed through, and how long the corridor had been. She didn't wake up until she returned to the Shenwu Gate that she had passed through earlier.Looking at the sky, it was almost noon, and the rain had stopped long ago.

Wanning was waiting in the doorway, when she turned her head and saw her, she said, "Why is it taking so long? I've been waiting for a long time. Get in the car." Shuning wiped off her cold sweat, and said, "Wait a little longer, Fourth Sister is very tired." We'll be there soon." Wanning curled her lips, looked at her with some doubts, and asked, "Why is your face so ugly? Didn't you answer it? No way? It's very simple." She seemed to understand a little bit, and said with a twitching corner of her mouth. : "Are you worried about losing the election? What does it matter? It's not a good thing to be selected. It's comfortable to lose the election." But I was thinking in my heart that this cousin acted so indifferent, but in fact she also cared about whether she could be selected. Just a common man.

Shuning didn't have the strength to answer, so she looked down at the ground.Yuanning came after a while, and said to Shuning with a smile: "Third sister, thank you for the snacks you gave me earlier, I almost fainted from hunger just now." Shuning smiled: "I still have snacks and water in the car , if you are very hungry, why don't you come and eat." Yuanning nodded with a smile.

The guards and eunuchs at the side stopped him and said: "According to the rules, the show girls have to take the original car to leave the palace, and the adults in the household department outside have to check." Yuanning pleaded: "It's not that I don't follow the rules, it's just Just sit in the previous car. I will answer immediately when I need to check.” But the other party refused to budge.

Wanning climbed into the car one step ahead, turned her head and said: "Rules are rules, Fourth Younger Sister is better to obey the rules." Then she stretched out her hand to put down the curtain.A trace of anger flashed in Yuanning's eyes, without saying much, she turned around and got into her car with a stamp of her feet.

Shuning sighed, got into her own car, hugged her knees in a daze.After a while, he calmed down amidst the sound of the wheels turning.

So what if you pass both primaries?I still have to go to the palace for re-election!When the time comes to stand with the two sisters, with beauties on both sides, she will definitely be ignored.What's more, there are three sisters applying for the election at the same time, those women are not fools, they will definitely eliminate one of them.

Only then did she feel better again, she opened the small wooden box next to her, and began to eat some snacks indifferently.
