Nong Zhaohua

Chapter 26

Afraid of Yan Zhaohua's stage fright, Yan Zhaoning rushed forward and said:

"That's it, my sister will start first. Let's not let you shoot one arrow at the other. Let's be more straightforward. You throw ten arrows, and I throw ten arrows. Whoever enters the pot with more mouths will win. As for the lottery..." Yan Zhaoning looked Yan Zhaohua up and down, his eyes fell on the white jade bracelet on Yan Zhaohua's wrist, and he pointed bluntly and said, "I want this prize!" , the quality of jade is as delicate as raising a fetus, so it must be of great value. Yan Zhaoning has never seen that Yan Zhaohua wears better things than her, so he said so.

Yan Zhaohua glanced down at his wrist, and answered quickly: "Okay, it's a deal."

Yan Zhaoning was overjoyed, she would be able to defeat Yan Zhaohua later, and get a treasure by the way, nothing could be happier than this.Just as he was about to reach for the arrow, Yan Zhaohua said again:
"I lost, the lottery was this white jade bracelet, and my sister lost, what was the lottery?"

Only then did everyone suddenly realize, yes, you are going to win the lottery, but will you definitely lose?If someone wins, they can't just take nothing.Some girls in the crowd have already started whispering.

Yan Zhaoning only felt that Yan Zhaohua was becoming more and more annoying. Before in the mansion, she obviously didn't dare to talk to herself like this, but in the past month, she has been acting like crazy, fighting against her and her mother everywhere. Forget it, her attitude towards her has changed drastically, she has become unfamiliar, and she has become a little out of control. Yan Zhaoning has to admit that this feeling is very bad, and said bravely:

"What does sister want?"

Yan Zhaohua looked her up and down just like Yan Zhaoning did before, and his eyes fell on the golden hairpin with sparrow head and tail emerald emerald inlaid with gemstones that she used to fix the bun on the top of her head. Today Yan Zhaoning combed a Young phoenix bun, this kind of bun is good-looking, but it is not very strong. Those who can comb their hair will know that this bun can only sit quietly and enjoy the flowers, because from the inside to the outside, it is only fixed by a hairpin , and the hairpin used for fixed purposes should not be too complicated, lest it will overwhelm the hostess and steal the style of the bun, so the person who dressed Yan Zhaoning chose a relatively simple emerald gold hairpin. There are necklaces strung with gold inlaid with oriental beads, bracelets inlaid with colorful gemstones, etc., but Yan Zhaohua doesn't want it. Without saying a word, he pointed to the top of her head with a smile and said loudly:

"I want this."

Anyone can see that what Yan Zhaohua wants is worthless, but she just pointed at this hairpin, even Yan Zhaoning was a little surprised that she would choose the least valuable thing on her body, and smiled ironically in her heart, as expected, she had never seen it before. The embryo of something good, it's strange that her mother used some cheap and inferior things to deceive her for such a long time, Yan Zhaoning didn't think at this moment that if she didn't have this hairpin on her head at this moment, her I can't hold back my black hair.

Yan Zhaohua turned around with a smile that was not a smile, and thought to himself: You are a lady, and you don't know if you look good with disheveled hair.

It's just a hairpin, it's nothing compared to the two suet white marble bracelets that Yan Zhaoning wanted for her, how could Yan Zhaoning refuse?What's more, the matter of wanting to win the lottery was proposed by her, so there is absolutely no reason to retreat at this moment.

As if afraid of Yan Zhaohua's repentance, he nodded and said, "Okay! That's it!"

Xie Xinrou seemed to see something. After hesitating for a moment, she stepped forward and said, "We're all a family and sisters, they're just playing together. Why do you want such a big prize? Let's forget it."

Yan Zhaohua looked at her and raised his eyebrows noncommittally: "It's not that I have to compare, but..."

Before Yan Zhaohua finished speaking, Yan Zhaoning rushed to say: "Forget it, the rules and the lottery have been set. If you give up now, sister Rou, will you pay me the lottery? It's rare for my big sister to let go , willing to send me something, what are you messing around with?"

Yan Zhaoning is also an idiot, blinded by the interests in front of her, she didn't realize that Xie Xinrou wanted to help her, she thought Xie Xinrou was speaking for Yan Zhaohua, she didn't like this cousin at all, the daughter of Dingguo's mansion What about the eldest daughter?But he is a little older than her, and he usually meddles with them, looking like an elder, I really don't know what to say.

Then, ignoring Xie Xinrou and Yan Zhaohua, Yan Zhaoning confidently picked up the five feathered arrows arranged in line, and shot them out neatly. Xie Xinrou felt that this girl really didn't know good from bad, and she was afraid that she would make a fool of herself That's what she said, but hearing the girl's tone, she felt that she was meddling in her own business, and she couldn't help feeling angry. Yan Zhaohua patted the back of her hand, telling her to be calm, and Xie Xinrou sighed helplessly. He took a breath and stepped aside.

On the other side, Yan Zhaoning shot all ten arrows, hit eight, and missed two. Although he didn't have a grand slam, this result is still very impressive. Ten times in a set, sometimes he can send Going in four or five is considered a master. Everyone just played with Yan Zhaohua, and now they can't help but feel a little worried about Yan Zhaohua. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Yan Zhaoning provoked this problem today, throwing pots This activity has always been a must-play for noble ladies at parties. Yan Zhaoning attends parties every three days, this technique has been practiced, and Yan Zhaohua doesn't come out once every half a year. Although he has some talent, But in the end, the on-the-spot experience is not enough, and Yan Zhaoning is the first to shoot. Generally, if the person who comes first in the game gets a good score, the pressure on the people behind can be imagined. Under such a pincer attack, I don't know if Yan Zhaohua can survive. .

Yan Zhaoning turned his head triumphantly and glanced at Yan Zhaohua, whose expression remained unchanged. There was even a calm smile on the corner of his mouth, and he gestured "please" to her. The ten feathered arrows prepared by the side, the first one was swung casually, but it missed and inserted into the soil beside the mouth of the pot. Yan Zhaoning sneered, and there were many pitiful gasps from the crowd, even Xie Xinrou Can't help but glance at Yan Zhaohua, not sure if Yan Zhaohua intends to waterproof it on purpose, it's fine if the people around don't know, but Xie Xinrou and Yan Zhaohua walked the closest, she can see that Yan Zhaohua was Intentionally let everyone in. Xie Xinrou is the host, and it is her responsibility to moderate the atmosphere and make everyone happy. Yan Zhaohua's behavior made her feel very caring. A smart guest is better than a provocative person like Yan Zhaoning, who destroys people everywhere. Atmosphere guests are much more welcome.

Yan Zhaoning snorted coldly and said, "Sister, if you admit defeat with me now, then this matter will be..."

Yan Zhaoning hadn't said the following words 'revealing the past' before he heard the bell on the mouth of the pot ring, and an arrow was accurately sent into the mouth of the pot, and before everyone could react, Yan Zhaohua left One step, throwing an arrow, nine pieces in a row at the entrance of the pot. After a brief surprise, all the people present looked back at each other in surprise. If it weren't for the good manners and upbringing to control these ladies, they might still be like the people of Tianqiao. clap your hands.

Yan Zhaoning's face turned green, grasping the red line that stopped, his knuckles turned white and this fact could not be undone, looking at the row of copper pots, Yan Zhaoning felt the power of heaven for the first time tease.

Yan Zhaoning patted the dandruff on his hands, pulled Yan Zhaoning back to his thoughts, turned around, and glared at Yan Zhaohua, with a gesture of impotent, eager to pounce on someone, this He looked exactly like the rumored Yan Zhaohua, arrogant and rude. People looked at each other, weighing right and wrong in their hearts. Yan Zhaohua walked up to Yan Zhaoning, didn't speak, just smiled like that Looking at Yan Zhaoning with a non-smiling, the two of them are two years apart, and also slightly different in size, Yan Zhaoning's face flushed red, and he gritted his teeth to pull out the emerald gold hairpin from his head, Xie Xinrou let out an 'ah', But when she thought about what Yan Zhaoning said to her earlier, she stopped again. Some people are like this, they can't listen to the advice of others. If they don't suffer once, they will never know how much they weigh.

So Xie Xinrou planned to ignore it.Everyone also had the same mentality as Xie Xinrou. Some people also understood why Xie Xinrou stopped their competition earlier, but they were rejected by Yan Zhaoning so bluntly. Who else would dare to come forward to make peace at this moment?Not to mention that Yan Zhaoning seemed to be angry at the moment, whoever stepped forward to speak was just asking for trouble.

I thought I could continue to watch a good show of sisters stepping on each other, but I didn't expect that Yan Zhaoning's hand just landed on the emerald gold hairpin on his head, and was about to pull it out, but the back of his hand was held down by Yan Zhaohua. Yan Zhaoning looked at Yan Zhaohua in surprise, only to hear Yan Zhaohua say:

"It's just a game, my sister really takes it too seriously. This hairpin... I don't want it anymore."

After hearing what Yan Zhaohua said, Xie Xinrou secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and finally broke through the psychological problem, stepped forward to smooth things over and said, "Yes, yes, it's just a game, what do you do seriously, I I don’t want to look at hairpins and bracelets, so as not to hurt the friendship, let’s follow the previous method of playing, if we lose, we will take two golden beans as a lottery, do you think this is good?”

Yan Zhaohua put down the hand that was holding the back of Yan Zhaoning's hand, curled his lips and said, "That's good, don't take it too seriously."

After saying this, Yan Zhaohua and Xie Xinrou walked towards Fang Caitou's table, but Yan Zhaohua was hit by something behind his back, and when he looked back, a golden hairpin fell on Yan's back. At Zhaohua's feet, he looked up at Yan Zhaoning, only to see that she was staring at him angrily, gritted her teeth and said:
"You don't need to pretend to be kind. I'm willing to gamble and admit defeat. It's just a hairpin. I can still afford to lose, so I don't owe you."

After saying this, Yan Zhaoning turned around abruptly, wanting to leave, but it was okay for her not to move, as soon as she moved, the bun on her head began to loosen like a landslide, and within a moment, it was twisted into several strands His curly hair fell off, and for a moment, his appearance was somewhat similar to that of the poodle from the Western Regions, which made everyone present laugh.

Yan Zhaoning didn't expect that just by pulling out a hairpin, her bun would completely fall apart. Seeing gloating eyes from all around her, she hugged her head and hurriedly squatted down, but no matter how much she squatted down, her hair had already fallen apart. It was the first time Yan Zhaoning encountered such a shameful and reckless situation, and he had no experience at all, so he was flustered.

Xie Xinrou glanced at the golden hairpin that Yan Zhaohua had picked up from the ground, and both of them looked at each other with helpless eyes. Xie Xinrou took the cloak and put it on Yan Zhaoning's head, helped her up in fright and handed her to the servant girl, saying:

"Take Miss Ning down to freshen up."

Yan Zhaoning's heart was full of overwhelming anger, but he hated that he couldn't help himself at this time, so he could only suppress his anger and leave with the servant girl.

Xie Xinrou came to Yan Zhaohua, Yan Zhaohua sighed and said, "Oh, I still brought you trouble."

Xie Xinrou knew that Yan Zhaohua was at the last moment, but she actually wanted to let go of Yan Zhaoning, but who knew that the girl didn't know good and bad, didn't know the heights of heaven and earth, and she ignored the advice of others as a joke, and she was so self-willed. , shook his head to Yan Zhaohua and said:

"Don't say that, no matter what, I accept your love. Sister Ning is ignorant and doesn't know how to act properly. If she makes things difficult for you later, I will break it up for you and grandma."

Yan Zhaohua smiled gratefully at Xie Xinrou.

At this moment, three or four nuns with dignified faces suddenly ran in from outside the garden. I saw those nuns trotting to the body of Mrs. Gu, the wife of the eldest son, and said a few words in Gu's ear. His face changed.

"Ma'am, Mr. Xixi in the Marquis of Changning had drunk to molested Feng'er, but was caught by the second steward. In a fit of anger, the second steward stabbed that gentleman."
