Beauty Sihuanian

Chapter 26

Wanping Ji's family's plum blossom feast is scheduled for the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month.The invitation has been sent out by Ji Wanning's handwriting. She is the concubine of the Pingyang Marquis Mansion. How can Wanping's prominent mansions miss this opportunity? It is also the old matriarch's intention to increase Ji Wanning's reputation. Since she was ten years old, she has taught her how to communicate. The letters and letters were all completed under the guidance of the old lady, and now they are quite up to standard, with precise and beautiful words, and quite a talent.

Apart from going to Ruyi Study to practice piano these days, Ji Wanyan just practiced piano in the mansion, as if she wanted to shine at the plum appreciation banquet, and the old lady also had a good eye for Ji Wanyan's rapid improvement in skills, and even praised Ji Wanyan face to face, After hearing Liu Ping's report, the third lady seemed to frown a little. The old matriarch seldom praised the girls in the mansion. Once the old matriarch could praise her, it meant that Ji Wanyan was indeed very talented.

Ji Wanyan's performance made the third lady fall into deep thought. Before, she always thought that this girl was too young to be afraid of, but now that she came out, she shined like this, and the third lady couldn't help but question her heart. She frowned and asked Liu Ping:
"Is she still secretly going to the West Side Hospital these days?"

Liu Ping nodded: "Yes. I go almost every other day, sometimes to deliver food, and sometimes to deliver quilts. Mei Mo dare not go back and forth every time, lest you say she made a fuss, but the fourth girl is really strange recently. She still avoids people, and these days she doesn't even avoid people, she just walks through the garden, no matter who sees it or not, she just goes there so brightly. Third madam, what do you think is the reason for this?"

The third lady looked at Liu Ping, and lowered her eyes in doubt, this girl's actions would definitely not be for no reason.In the past, I avoided people anyway, but now I don’t avoid people, then there must be some support, and Ji Wanyan’s support in the mansion is nothing more than the favor of the old matriarch, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that the old matriarch’s so-called " What exactly does "love" mean? It's just changing from an ordinary chess piece to an advanced chess piece.

Even so, Mrs. Zhou still kept a little care in her heart.

Until two days later, she followed the old lady to meet guests in the Songhe Courtyard, and it was Mrs. Zhizhou who came. The old lady wanted to let Ji Wanyan practice her courage, so she asked her to play in front of the guests. Of course, everyone was shocked by the result. After learning that Ji Wanyan was under Liu Sanlang, Mrs. Zhizhou praised Ji Wanyan many times. The old matriarch laughed from ear to ear and asked Ji Wanyan unprecedentedly:
"Girl, it's also your blessing. Mrs. Zhizhou praised you personally. Tell me, what reward do you want?"

Ji Wanyan left the Guqin and sat upright in the middle of the guest seats on both sides. The whole flower hall was illuminated by the light on her face. Mrs. Zhizhou couldn't help but be shocked by this girl's outstanding appearance. It is said that she is only ten years old this year. If she is older, she must have a bright future.

The old lady couldn't see Ji Wanyan's peerless youthful appearance, but she didn't want to hold back, and let Ji Wanyan show off her beauty and talent. After all, this old lady knows very well that a woman's beauty and talent cannot guarantee her nobility in life A woman's appearance and talent are important, but these things are all based on a good reputation. This is like a prostitute in a brothel, who is also beautiful and talented, but how does the world treat them?

Ji Wanyan took a deep breath, and acted like a ten-year-old girl was complacent after being praised by her elders. She rolled her eyes twice, and then said in a low voice:

"The old matriarch's usual rewards are already enough. The fourth girl dare not ask for any more rewards."

The old lady and Mrs. Zhizhou looked at each other and laughed. How can they not understand that this is a child's kind words. Mrs. Zhizhou said to Ji Wanyan with the idea of ​​cherishing talents:

"Fourth Miss, why should you be polite to your grandmother? Just say what you want, the old lady is such a kind person, just open your mouth, you are not afraid of the old lady's criticism."

Mrs. Zhizhou can also be regarded as the old matriarch who grew up watching her grow up. She and the eldest lady of the Ji family exchanged handkerchiefs. In front of the Taijun, Mrs. Zhizhou is also a kind junior, so she doesn't have so much consideration and etiquette when she speaks.

Ji Wanyan looked at Mrs. Zhizhou, and thought of her eldest aunt. In her impression, the Ji family had produced three powerful women, one was the old lady, the other was Ji Wanning, and the other was this old lady who was married long ago. Auntie, the eldest daughter of the Ji family, the old lady married her to the Duke of Zhenguo, who was still the eldest son at that time, and she was the wife of the main house. It is said that she had a good time, but after a few years, the eldest son inherited the title and became the prince. Zhen Guogong, the Ji family has also changed from the wife of the eldest son to the wife of the country. The old wife of the country wants to accept the concubine of the Duke of the Duke. The Ji family is arrogant on the surface, but in the heart, they may not be willing. When they come back, they cry to the old lady. Afterwards, her concubine sister was brought into the mansion as a concubine for the Duke of the state. It can be seen from this that this eldest aunt is also a cunning one.

After Mrs. Zhizhou's words fell, the old matriarch also looked at Ji Wanyan with a smile, waiting for her to speak.

Ji Wanyan seemed to be thinking about it, and after biting her lips and thinking for a while, she took a deep breath and said, "Since the old matriarch and his wife have said this, then...the fourth girl said it boldly, and I ask the old matriarch to forgive me." .”

The old matriarch took the orange meat that Luo's mother had peeled, smiled and said to Ji Wanyan: "Hey, what kind of good do you want, and do you want me to forgive you? Tell me, as long as you like it in this mansion Yes, no matter how valuable or not, I can reward you."
