Rebirth Nunnery

Chapter 87
After saying this, Ding Jiayi turned around directly and stopped looking at them.

On the stage, the dancer was looking at Ding Jiayi with great interest, her eyes were shining with strange brilliance.

Ding Jiayi ignored her, but walked to the center of the stage, and saluted everyone respectfully.

"Broken everyone's interest, the little girl hereby apologizes to you all."

Ding Jiayi's voice was elegant and penetrating, passing through everyone's hearts like a clear spring, and the expressions of those guests suddenly became much kinder.

"I came here today to celebrate Master Dong's birthday. This comparison is inappropriate. My daughter doesn't expect Master Dong to forgive me for my mistakes. But before that, my daughter still has a dance, which I want to dedicate to Master Dong."

Ding Jiayi didn't talk about competing for talent, but only said that it was for performing. This remark made Dong Shangshu feel relieved.

You must know that it is very unlucky to be injured at the birthday banquet. If the Lord Shangshu is unhappy, they may not even be able to keep their names.

No matter how proud Yunyuefang was, it was nothing more than a group of singers and dancers. How could it be possible to resist the court ministers?
Ding Jiayi knew this very well, so she put on a very low posture, and apologized as soon as she came up.

Fortunately, this Dong Shangshu is not an irritable person. After hearing Ding Jiayi's words, he nodded slightly and said.

"Finally, there is someone who understands etiquette. What talent is there? If the performance is good, the old man will not be stingy with rewards."

As soon as Dong Shangshu opened his mouth, Ding Jiayi finally felt a little relieved, and then laughed.

"Thank you for your kindness, my lord."

Ding Jiayi slightly bent his knees and took a step back.

The dancer was invited down. Ding Jiayi didn't change her clothes, she was still wearing a white dress and a long pink gauze, standing quietly in the middle of the stage.

A piano sounded, like a light suddenly flashing in the dark night.

Stepping on the first rhythm point, Ding Jiayi took a step forward and raised his slender and straight right leg.

Her flexibility is amazing, her right leg almost touches the top of her head.

At this time, the sound of the piano gradually entered, and Ding Jiayi's legs jumped again and again, like a pink bird jumping on the branches.

The long pink veil flew away, like a pair of wings spread out, trembling slightly in the breeze.

Such a peculiar dance made the guests subconsciously stop making a sound and just look at the moving figure on the stage.

The slender legs and the graceful veil leap in people's eyes, like a light bird with pink wings, but with a noble and proud aura.

No matter where it was in the Great Wu Dynasty, singing and dancing performances have always been dominated by group dances and solo songs, and solo dances rarely appear.

After all, a solo dance tests the dancer's skills more, but it is much weaker in momentum. How can a group dance be dazzling and colorful?
But today, everyone has a different opinion in their hearts.

It turns out that dancing solo can also be so attractive!

This dance was not long, and after a few minutes, the veil on Ding Jiayi's body stopped dancing and fell slowly.

Fei Wu's figure also stopped, and the figure crossed a beautiful arc before landing in front of the stage.

Looking at the bowed and half-kneeling figure on the stage, everyone's eyes showed surprise and surprise.

Dong Shangshu's squinted eyes also opened at this moment, looked at the figure on the stage, and asked slowly.

"What dance is this?"

"Returning to my lord, this is the crane dance created by my little girl. Cranes have the meaning of longevity and dignity, and it is most suitable to praise your lord. What do you think?"

While speaking, Ding Jiayi raised his head, and his delicate face was full of respectful smiles. Although he was flattering, he couldn't hear a hint of flattery, but only made people feel sincere.

When Mr. Dong heard this, a smile finally appeared on his face.

"It's rare for you to put in so much effort to offer a birthday gift to Crane Dance. Come and see!"

With a shout, the housekeeper of the Dong Mansion came out with a few servants.The housekeeper knew Master Dong's mind best, walked directly to the front of the stage, and placed all the rewards on the tray in front of Ding Jiayi.

Ding Jiayi was not excited by this, but just glanced at the rewards, and bowed respectfully to the ground again.

"Thank you, my lord, for the reward."

Master Dong stroked his long beard with a smile, and said with emotion.

"Such an exquisite thought at such a young age reminds me of 20 years ago."

The words obviously meant something, but except for a few people, no one understood what he was saying.

"Little girl, would you like to stay in my Dong Mansion?"

Master Dong's sudden words startled all the guests present.

You know, this Mr. Dong is famous for being strict and meticulous. There are very few concubines in the mansion, not to mention dancing girls. Who would have thought that Dong Shangshu, who is just over forty, would accept this dancing girl in the mansion?
Everyone present had different thoughts and began to think about the meaning behind this move.

Ding Jiayi was still half-kneeling on the ground. Hearing this, he couldn't help but feel puzzled. He raised his head and glanced at Dong Shangshu. He didn't see a trace of greed or lust in his eyes, but was full of appreciation.

"The little girl is grateful to the lord for hanging the curtain, but according to the rules of Yunyuefang, you are not allowed to leave before the age of five years, and the little girl is not allowed to violate it. I hope the lord will forgive me."

Ding Jiayi's words were soft, but they had another meaning in everyone's ears.

The so-called rules of Yunyuefang also depend on the person. If you want a person from Yunyuefang with Master Dong's status, will the owner of the workshop refuse?

Everyone could hear that this was Ding Jiayi's refusal. Some of the guests were surprised, some looked contemptuous, and some looked appreciative.

However, these have nothing to do with Ding Jiayi, she just looked at that Master Dong, hoping that the other party would not be angry because of it.

Fortunately, Mr. Dong seemed to be in a good mood today. Although Ding Jiayi declined his proposal, he just waved his hands in regret.

"In that case, you should go back to Yunyuefang!"

Ding Jiayi saluted respectfully again, and then retreated.

When she stepped off the stage, all the dancers in Yunyuefang looked at her with complicated expressions.

Lingxiang's feet had already been medicated, and she was sitting by the side, watching Ding Jiayi being praised and attracting everyone's attention, her heart was filled with anger and envy, and there was a hint of injustice in her heart.

Obviously, she should be the one to accept these things.

Ding Jiayi walked up to her, seemed to see what she was thinking, and said.

"You feel unfair?"

Lingxiang snorted coldly, and turned her head away from her.

Ding Jiayi, on the other hand, stared intently and said word by word.

"I don't care what ideas you have in your mind, at least you see your identity clearly, you are so ambitious, and you are the only one who dies in the end. Your death has nothing to do with me, but don't implicate other people."

Ding Jiayi's cold words made Lingxiang's expression extremely ugly.

Thinking of what happened on the stage just now, she felt a chill down her back again.

Traveling to and from these adults' mansions, Lingxiang knew very well that she was just a plaything in their eyes, and if she really offended a senior official in the court, no one would stand up for her.

Seeing Lingxiang's increasingly pale face, Ding Jiayi sighed and walked away.

These women are either of humble status, or they are trying to gain fame and wealth, but there are very few people who really have vision and can see clearly.

Being in the middle of the game without knowing it, blindly only knowing to act with cleverness, the final outcome can be imagined.

Ding Jiayi didn't want to get involved in these things. The future of these dancers has nothing to do with her. It's just that if she doesn't show up, Lingxiang's mistake will implicate other people. This is not what she wants to see.

Ding Jiayi had performed this Crane Dance for the Qingzhou official when he was in Fengdou County, but the performance was still a bit young at that time.

These days, Ding Jiayi combined the dance skills learned in Yunyuefang with modern ballet, and gradually perfected the crane dance a lot.

However, this was originally the song she wanted to perform on the Longevity Festival to celebrate Shengshang's longevity, but it had to be revealed because of today.

In her plan, the performance on the Longevity Festival is very important, so she has been studying the crane dance recently, hoping to make a big splash and attract the attention of the supreme being on the dragon chair.

But the plan that had been prepared for a long time had to be shelved due to today's accident, which made Ding Jiayi feel very bad.

Although she didn't regret it, when facing Lingxiang, Ding Jiayi still couldn't help but reprimanded her.

Seeing the expressions of the two, the others didn't dare to speak, but they were more inclined to Ding Jiayi in their hearts.

Ding Jiayi's Crane Dance also let these dancers see her true talent, and made these girls who make a living by dancing feel a little respect in their hearts.
