pampering wife

Chapter 43

Of course, He Suiyu's admiration also surprised Qingmei. She paused for a moment with the brush in her hand, then calmed down, and continued to copy, but there was a slight smile on the corner of her mouth.After copying all of them, He Suiyu exclaimed: "I can't imagine that Qingmei can write such calligraphy at such a young age! I don't know who is the teacher?"

"The teacher is from the countryside. Qingmei's class is full of axes, which makes everyone laugh." Qingmei put on a modest look.As for reporting to the teacher's school, she dared not——

When they were in Wancheng, the two families had a good relationship, and when He Zimo came to teach, Yingzi was by his side, so it didn't matter.But Jingzhong's rules are much more strict than Wancheng's. If she rashly speaks out about her master's school, she may not only make jokes from interested people, but may even bring He Zimo into trouble.

He Suiyu is also a person of knowledge. Celebrities and high scholars do not want to be involved in fame and fortune. It is not uncommon for students not to be allowed to report to their masters. Of course, she would not mind it. She just praised: "It's really good calligraphy."

The handwriting on the rice paper is round and powerful, and can be turned freely and gracefully. Although it is written in regular regular script, it has the charm of cursive script implicitly.Kuang Qingmei was able to develop this wrist strength at such a young age, it can be seen that she has worked hard, so talented and willing to work hard, He Suiyu greatly appreciated it.

The people around did not expect Qingmei to be able to write such a good handwriting, they couldn't help being surprised and praised, and they were even more curious about Qingmei.This girl looks pretty and well-behaved, but she still has such a talent hidden in her body!So just now she humbled herself and said she couldn't compose poetry, could she also be hiding her clumsiness?It is inevitable that I will take a higher look at Qingmei in my heart.

Qingmei didn't know what they were thinking, she just breathed a sigh of relief, and understood the meaning of Wu Yujian's winking eyes - when Qingmei sent the wine jar to Wu Boren, she used a note to write the names of the wines on it, Wu Yujian probably just read it. After seeing the handwriting, I was convinced that her calligraphy would win praise, so I suggested that she transcribe it?

When she cast her eyes on Wu Yujian, she was also looking over, and the two of them met their eyes and smiled knowingly.Looking at Chu Hongxiu who was standing outside, she smiled faintly and didn't speak anymore, just playing with the narcissus leaves.

Accidentally saw Gu Hanying standing beside her, and seeing her looking at her in a daze, Qingmei poked her arm and said, "What are you thinking about?"

Gu Hanying came back to her senses, a trace of panic flashed in her eyes, and said: "It's nothing." Then she smiled at Qingmei.Perhaps because of her status, Gu Hanying usually tends to be distracted, and Qingmei got used to it after seeing her more often, so naturally she didn't care.

Tanying has already gone out with the transcribed poems, and they will hand them over to the wives to judge the pros and cons.A few people in the side room were talking about Qingmei's calligraphy, Chu Hongxiu smiled and joked to He Suiyu: "It is indeed a good handwriting, I am afraid I will catch up with you soon." The smile, actually did not hide the thought of provoking trouble at all.

Gu Ronghua stepped sideways to He Suiyu, and said with a smile: "Compared to Yuniang, it's still far behind, but it's also very rare. It's been a while since the transcribed poems have been sent, and the evaluation may have some results , I just don’t know who will win the championship this time.” He casually diverted the topic away.

After a while, Tanying came back and showed the results of the wives' comments to everyone.As expected, Wu Yujian won the first prize, Shen Yuemei again, Wei Xin and County Lord Shuming ranked third, and the latter few were not ranked, but each had its own advantages.

The result was decided, and it was inevitable to have some drinking and teasing. Looking at the snowy plum forest outside the window, the slight embarrassment and unhappiness before disappeared, and everyone had a good time playing.

The voice of opera singing in the attic next door came faintly, and the actor's singing voice was clear and melodious.I don't know who suggested it, and everyone put on their cloaks and cloaks and went outside to the plum grove while being served by their maidservants.

In the eyes of the wives listening to the play, this picture of a group of women competing for beauty naturally aroused some comments and jokes.

The luncheon was held in the Ruixue Pavilion, and it was also interesting to see the snow scene, because the girls were playful, it was already Shenshi after the banquet, and the banquet just ended.

Mrs. Gu took her three daughters away and sent everyone away. She was also tired today, so she asked everyone to go back to the courtyard to rest, and naturally they didn't have to go to Liufangtang for dinner.

Qingmei was a little tired after dealing with it for a long time, and after returning to the Liuli Pavilion, she simply told Mrs. Xu what happened today.Speaking of the girls' love of fruit wine, Wei Xin pestered Gu Ronghua for fruit wine before leaving, Qing Mei was very happy--fruit wine is so popular, so opening a tavern is very promising.And with the support of these noble ladies, the business will not be bad at that time.

When it comes to calligraphy, it is inevitable to mention the He family, Xu nodded her forehead and said with a smile: "See how you hated Mr. He at that time, should you be grateful to him now?"

Qingmei stuck out her tongue and smiled without saying a word.She naturally understands this truth. When He Zimo forced her to practice calligraphy, Qingmei sometimes worked so hard that she even wanted to scold him.But when she saw the progress in calligraphy, she would be overjoyed again, and to this day, she does not know how grateful she is to He Zimo.

But gratitude is one aspect, Qingmei still misses He Zilian very much: "When shall we go out again? I don't know what happened to Lianer and the others, and Huaiyuan hasn't come back for a long time."

Because of Xu Huaiyuan's embarrassing status in Gu's residence, after Xu's family sent him to Lizheng Academy, Xu Huaiyuan went to He's house to board every time the academy took a rest.Mrs. Zuo He treats Xu Huaiyuan like a parent and child, the two families are close, so it's not troublesome, but Xu and Qingmei haven't seen him for a long time, and they miss him very much.

"Counting the days, the academy will be closed in five days. You can see if you can go out of the house and visit him for me." Xu said.

Qingmei is naturally happy.Living in Gu's mansion, everything is not free, and she misses her friends in the market outside, so the desire to open a tavern is naturally more urgent.

The next day, I went to greet Mrs. Gu, and when my mother and I were gossiping, Qingmei told anecdotes about the past, which made Mrs. Gu very happy.
