Chapter 31

Luwan is impatient because she knows how hard the girl has been practicing the piano these days, and seeing that tomorrow is a good opportunity to prove herself, but such a thing happened again, the third girl is determined not to let the fourth The girl came out.But there is nothing she can do if she is impatient, as the girl said, even if she is impatient, those ladies will continue to talk.

Sighing, she went down to find Mother Xu who was changing the girl's clothes for tomorrow, took the money and rushed to the kitchen.

Ji Wanyan looked at the disappearing back of Lu Wanyan, closed her eyes that were as bright as stars, and returned to the back of the piano stand without saying anything, and continued to study the piano score.

In the early morning of the eleventh day of the Lunar New Year, there was an endless stream of carriages in front of Ji's house. Although the flower fair competition was held at Ji's house, it was not something that Ji's family could completely decide. Among the wives of a famous family, the most prestigious ones are the mother of the current prime minister, Mrs. Yan, Mrs. Yipin Gaoming, and Mrs. Yu, the old lady of the Marquis of Xinguo. The old lady Jun Ning of the Shangji family, three respected old ladies sit in the town, plus six other judges, this competition seems to be on a scale.

The girls gave full play to their strengths in the Jijiadong Nuan Pavilion. A stage was built in the Nuan Pavilion. Behind the stage, various musical instruments and dance equipment were prepared to meet the requirements of the ladies of each house. The ladies came on stage one by one, the old lady and the wives They all sat on the warm mats on the east side, and after one lady finished performing, they discussed the score in whispers and recorded it separately.

Ji Wanyan is wearing a spirit snake bun today, which can attract attention without complicated headwear, only a silver sparrow hairpin is inserted diagonally on the top of her head.This hairpin was bought by her ex-son by letting Xu's mother go outside. It is not expensive, only 120 yuan, and what she is wearing is also ready-made in the clothing store outside. It was modified by hand, and a cloud belt was added to the waist of the clothes. When walking, it was like a wind like a shadow, very elegant, wearing a pair of soft-soled small pearl embroidered shoes on the feet, and the whole outfit may not even have a tael of silver, but it is so, Ji Wanyan wears it Such plain clothes perfectly set off her orchid-like temperament in the empty valley, making people feel that she is like the fairy in the painting, so holy that people dare not desecrate her.

It wasn't until the sound of her piano came out that everyone returned to reality.

What Ji Wanyan played was the famous work of the famous music master Liu Sanlang. Although the fingering is not as proficient and smooth as the old man, but this kind of rhythm sounds so that people can clearly feel the sadness and laughter in the music.

After the song was over, Yan Shi, who was sitting among the judges, praised Ji Wanyan without any hesitation.Ji Wanyan stepped forward to thank her, and then Yu Shi, although Yu Shi is the old lady of Xin Guohou's mansion, she has always followed Yan Shi's lead.

Ning saw that the two old ladies gave high marks, so of course she wanted to encourage her own children, and naturally they also got high marks.Just like that, the other six judges hadn't scored yet, and Ji Wanyan was already the highest rated among all the girls in the venue.

There was an uproar.The corner of the third lady Zhou's mouth curled into a sneer.

The ladies secretly exchanged glances, some pursed their lips, some were dissatisfied, and some were seriously reflecting on where they were not as good as others.

At this moment, a little servant girl ran in, knelt down in front of the third lady in shock, and said loudly:

"Third Madam, it's bad, the west courtyard is on fire!"

One sentence shocked the audience, and the third lady stood up with an unbelievable expression and said angrily:

"What did you say? Is the west side courtyard on fire?" Concentrated eyes pondered for a moment, then turned to look at the old lady, and said, "She is locked up in the west side courtyard..."

The old matriarch's complexion was not good. Mother Luo supported her to stand up, and led the crowd to the corridor to look out. As expected, she saw the fire in the west courtyard, and said angrily:

"Hurry up and put out the fire! If the house is on fire, it will be on fire. Be sure to save people!"

Mrs. Lin went crazy and was locked up in Ji's house. It turned out that she had lost her virtue and was not a pity to die. But no one in Wanping back then knew that Mrs. Ji's life was protecting Mrs. Lin, not to mention that there was Mrs. Lin from Lingnan. , Lin is alive, even if he is imprisoned, the Lin family has nothing to say, after all, Lin made mistakes first, but if Lin died, the Lin family will always come to ask for an explanation.

No matter what it is, the old lady does not want Mrs. Lin to die at this time.

Everyone returned to the Nuan Pavilion, and after a while Liu Ping led a group of people into the courtyard, followed by two Kong Wu's powerful servants, and they grabbed a maid with her hands tied and her face ashen ashes, Ji Wanqing knew that maid, cried:
"Hey, isn't that the maid serving in the fourth sister's room? It seems to be Mei Mo, why was she arrested?"

Everyone's eyes focused on Ji Wanyan, and they looked at each other, not knowing what was going on.

Liu Ping ordered someone to press Mei Mo to kneel in the center, and replied loudly:
"Reporting, ladies and gentlemen, the fire in the West Side Courtyard has been brought under control and will not spread. Please rest assured. We caught this girl in the surrounding area. When we found her, she was evacuating furtively. She held a bag in her pocket, which contained sheep oil and flint, and after some interrogation, she admitted that she was the one who started the fire in the West Side Hospital."
