Chapter 820 If You Like It

Soon, two servants from the princess' mansion came over carrying a huge water tank and placed it beside Duan Yuqi.

After the props came up, Duan Yuqi, who was standing there, saluted in the direction of the queen, and then began her performance.

It is completely different from the dancing and sword dancing of those noble girls before. When she is wielding a big knife, her movements are capable and her moves are fierce. People look extraordinarily imposing.

But there was some restraint in that stern aura, and he tried his best to let himself in the performance control the strength and influence of the performance.

After a burst of swiping with a big knife, her figure landed beside the vat like a flying swallow.

Just when everyone thought she was going to reach out to lift the big vat, they were surprised to find that...

She actually jumped onto the edge of the vat!

When standing on it, Bai Jinli could clearly hear the sound of breathing not far away.

Even she was very involved, eager to know what kind of performance she would have next.

The figure of Duan Yuqi quickly walked around the edge of the big vat with a gentle posture, then got up and made a turn in mid-air, then raised her foot and kicked on the big vat.

Then the big vat flew up, and the treasured knife in her hand cut through the sky and stopped aside, and then saw the falling big vat landed on her knife.

Her expression was still condensed, she exerted strength with her right hand, and the big vat on the knife spun a few times like a spinning top, and then she kicked it up again.

Taking this opportunity, she stretched out her left hand to hold the vat, and slowly put the vat back on the ground.

Then he put one hand on the first floor of the vat, flipped and landed in front of the vat.

Put away the knife, salute, and the show is over.

Bai Jinli was the first to applaud. For her, this performance is definitely the MVP in the competition.

Duan Yuqi's strength, expression, movement, performance difficulty, etc. are all the most prominent among them.

This performance looked simple, but Bai Jinli could imagine that it took a lot of thought and past training.

The big tank that could only be lifted by the two boys was used as a toy by her, and she would be injured if she was not careful in those difficult movements.

People with this kind of ability must have been cultivated through hard training, and they can't be trained in ten or eight years.

"Very good." Not only Bai Jinli applauded, but even Princess Heshun, who was sitting beside her, looked very enthusiastically.

"Thank you for the compliment!" Duan Yuqi, who heard the compliment, saluted slightly in the direction of the two, with a hint of joy in her eyes.

"Everyone is tired too? Our princess's mansion has prepared fresh fruit tea and cakes for everyone. There are also blooming chrysanthemums in the Qingfeng Garden not far away. You can walk around and watch them at will. After half a stick of incense, you will still meet here .”

After Yan Shi, who had received the queen's order, finished speaking, those noble ladies stood up and saluted at the same time, and watched the queen and Princess Heshun, Princess Mu and others leave temporarily, and each of them returned to their original appearance.

They gathered together in twos and threes to start a mutual praise mode among handkerchief friends.

"The dance you danced just now is really good. It's as graceful as a dragon, showing off your figure too much. How did you get to this level?"

"The song of mountains and rivers you just played is so beautiful, combined with the exquisite side face, it is simply a beautiful scenery."

"Long time no see, your complexion looks good, is there any good prescription?"

"Let's go to enjoy the chrysanthemums. This is the first time I've come to the princess mansion."

"..."

Duan Yuqi didn't feel the slightest envy when she heard the discussions beside her ears. She walked back to her seat and drank the hot tea on the table.

After taking a sip, I saw a maid walking over with new fruit tea and snacks.

"Miss Duan, you can try the fruit tea from our princess mansion."

"Okay, thank you." Duan Yuqi was not polite, and after taking it, she raised her head and drank it.

Afterwards, she picked up the small pastries that looked like jade rabbits on the table next to her and ate them.

With just one bite, she narrowed her eyes in satisfaction.

Delicious, the pastries in the capital are much more delicious than those outside.

It happened that she was hungry after playing with a big knife just now, so she unceremoniously grabbed the pastries on the table one by one and ate them.

After seeing her actions, the noble ladies on the side inevitably showed a trace of disdain in their expressions and words, and even talked about her in a low voice.

Duan Yuqi is also considered a martial arts practitioner, she has sharp eyes and ears, and she can hear what the people around her say.

It's just that she doesn't intend to pay attention to it. After all, hasn't she heard too many discussions since she was a child?
Those discussions can't do anything to her.

If you have a chance to argue with others, you might as well bow your head and eat a few more pastries. You won't be able to eat such delicious food after you leave the princess' mansion.

"You like these snacks very much?" Bai Jinli sat aside and looked at her and asked.

"Yeah, I like it." Duan Yuqi quickly swallowed the pastry in her mouth, then raised her eyes to look at Bai Jinli.

"Thank you for your appreciation just now."

"You're welcome, your performance is indeed enough to attract my attention. May I ask, how long have you practiced?"

"Are you talking about knives or top tanks? For knives, it's been 11 years. As for top tanks, it's been almost eight years."

"Then you this year?"

"Are you curious about my age? I'm seventeen this year, and I just came to the capital not long ago." Duan Yuqi answered.

"It's amazing. If you like to eat those pastries, I'll ask someone to pack some and bring them back to you later."

"Really? Thank you, you're such a good person." Duan Yuqi's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she looked at Bai Jinli with a simple smile.

The person in front of her was the first one to strike up a conversation with her after she came to the capital, and there was no impatience in her tone when talking to her, and he even gave her food.

"You're welcome, as long as you like it." Bai Jinli smiled.

Those pastries and snacks are all from her snack shop, and some of them are also the latest products.

Seeing that her things are loved by Duan Yuqi, she, the shopkeeper of the snack shop, also feels very comfortable.

"I know your name is Bai Jinli. It's a pleasure meeting you. This is a gift from me." After speaking, Duan Yuqi took out an old tiger-shaped sign from her pocket.

The sign was polished iron and strung with an old elastic cord.

"Give it to me? Thank you." Bai Jinli took it with both hands, and then put it on his wrist very solemnly.

Seeing that she didn't underestimate the gift she gave her and even put it on on the spot, Duan Yuqi felt even happier from the bottom of her heart.

"Then I'll give you a return gift too." Bai Jinli took off a homemade protective sachet from her body and handed it over.

"it is good."

Not long after giving each other gifts, the ladies who went out to enjoy the flowers came back one after another.

Bai Jinli felt that she was too sleepy and felt nauseated again, so she bid farewell to Duan Yuqi, greeted the queen, Prince Mu and others, and left first.

The princess mansion actually has guest rooms, but the princess mansion has just been repaired not long ago, and the cabinets, tables and other items in the guest rooms are all newly typed, and may contain formaldehyde.

Bai Jinli was pregnant for the first time, and she was very cautious about the fetus in her womb, so she decided to go back to the White Mansion to rest.

Before leaving the princess' mansion, she squatted aside and retched for a long time. After drinking some warm water, she boarded the carriage back with the support of Xiangming.

As soon as she returned home, she went into her room and began to sleep.

After waking up from this sleep, it was already two hours later.

"Master, are you alright? Why don't I go to the medical school and ask the doctor to come and take a look?" Ling Jiao looked at her with distressed expression.

Ever since her master became pregnant, she has been in poor condition, and she is really worried.

"No, women will experience many inconveniences in the first three months of pregnancy. I just reacted a little more, so it's okay." Bai Jinli waved her hand.

"By the way, what happened while I was sleeping?"

"Oh, yes, Second Master Bai came to see you once, and left again when he heard that you were resting. After that, Young Master Xiao Ming also came to see you."

"Bai Xiaoming is here? Where are the others?"

Her second brother probably came to her because he wanted to talk to her about the improvement of firecrackers. As for the reason why Bai Xiaoming came to her, she hadn't figured it out yet.

The school has already sent people to build it, and it is almost ready to take shape now.

The library next to it is currently rushing to clear the bookshelves inside, and a new round of repairs is also going on outside.

As for the books that should be in it, she has already asked people to purchase them from various channels.

Once the library is built, those books can be stationed there.

She did a rough calculation, and the books she purchased cost her nearly 500 taels of silver.

"I was still outside just now, and the servants will go out to take a look."

"Yeah." Bai Jinli nodded and got off the bed, sat in front of the vanity mirror and began to tidy up her appearance.

Not long after, Ling Jiao led Bai Xiaoming to the guest room in Bai Jinli's courtyard.

"Nephew, did you come to see me for something?"

"Little girl, I heard that you have been feeling unwell recently, so Hui Niang made some food in private and asked me to bring it to you."

After finishing speaking, Bai Jinli put the canteen she was carrying on the table beside her.

"You guys are interested." After thanking Bai Jinli, she went to open the food box, and then saw the contents inside.

A bowl of snacks made of hawthorn, chopped walnuts, raisins and milk, and a side dish.

Not to mention, not only did she not feel sick after seeing those, but she felt a little hungry instead.

"It's good that my sister likes it."

"Sister-in-law, I still have something to do, so I'll go back first, and you have a good rest."

After Bai Xiaoming finished speaking, he turned around and walked out. Bai Jinli watched his back disappear at the door of the room, then took out the things in the food box, took the chopsticks and spoons and began to eat.

Just now she noticed that there seemed to be some scars on Bai Xiaoming's hands, and she was still wondering what happened.

But now it seems that I'm afraid it was injured when taking these walnut kernels.

Tsk, her eldest nephew has really improved, and he knows how to care about her.

"Lingjiao, tell me, has our letter been delivered by now?"
