Xiao Zheng turned his head and looked at Qiao Ruolan with a smile on his face.

When watching this play, all she thought about was what Grandma had said last time.

At this point, when listening to Qiao Ruolan's question, Xiao Xun naturally said: "This Lu is ridiculous! Marriage is the matchmaker of her parents, she disregards her parents' forced marriage, but is not filial. Ten years of my own bitter cold kiln, passed away a woman's most glorious years, but when he was rich and glorious, he married another flat wife, which is better than the reputation of Chen Shimei .... "

Qiao Ruolan was stunned and speechless.

But Xiao Yue said more and more cheerfully, persuaded with righteousness: "Cousin, this kind of repertoire is usually written blindly by those poor scholars or high-reading scholars. You just have to look and listen and be a pleasure That's all, but don't really believe it! "

Thinking of the first two years, a daughter of a wealthy businessman in southern Xinjiang likes to watch a show on weekdays, and finally ran away with a performer. Xiao Xun felt that his worry was not unreasonable.

Qiao Ruolan listened to the corner of her mouth, when did she say she believed it!

But she was unwilling to let Xiao Yan prevail, and retorted: "Sister, you are bad. Lu's respect is that she doesn't dislike the rich and love the rich, and marries General Li at the time of decline. Afterwards, she kept the cold kiln for ten years, but she was a model for women for hundreds of years! "

The dispute between the two girls has long attracted the attention of a few girls. One girl sitting on the left of Xiao Yan couldn't help but say, "Girl Qiao, I think the girl Xiao is right, Since ancient times, marriage has been about parents' destiny and door-to-door relationship. If children are disobedient to their parents, what a system! "

Another girl also said calmly: "Yes, Lu Zhenzheng is a virtue worthy of commendation, but Baishan filial piety first, not filial piety is a big sin! It was she who helped her downcast parents, and was also a martyr. What she did was right, she could only say that she later changed her knowledge! "

When these girls watch a show on weekdays, they are simply moved by the ups and downs of the characters in the play, lamenting the sorrows and joys of life, but they have never linked reality to these operas. Now, if you think about it, many girls think that many of the songs are better. It's ridiculous. The famous "The West Chamber" and "The Wall is Going" all wrote stories about boudoirs and their personal relationships, but in fact, the folk customs in the southern Xinjiang will be more enlightened and the girls' furniture will not be tolerated. It is not uncommon for a bowl of soup medicine to end the life of the girl's house in some strict-regulated provinces.

The girls were so excited that their voices were raised unconsciously, and the ladies sitting by the porch were also attracted attention.

Mrs. Qiao looked at Nangong with a smile and asked, "Second concubine, I feel that this Lu family is both virtuous and virtuous. When her parents and husband are weak, she will never give up. What do you think, concubine?"

Nangong Xi smiled slightly: "Aunt knows that there is a Qingmao College in Luo Yue City?"

Mrs. Qiao stunned, and did not know why Nangong Sui suddenly mentioned Qingmao College, and he heard Nangong Sui continued: "This Qingmao College is the best academy in Luo Yuecheng. There have been many scholars in the past 100 years. I do n’t know how many people. The head of Qingmao College is very kind, and every year I am relieved of ten outstanding poor students. I do n’t know if my aunt would like to choose a good one for her cousin? "

You ... Mrs. Joe stared almost with her eyes protruding forward.

Nan Gongxi looked at Mrs. Qiao with a smile, and said, "Aunt rest assured that all the students are excellent, and the head of the academy and the gentlemen can guarantee it. The cousin will marry at the moment when the male way is weak. In the future, Cousin husband Kim Bang title will remember the cousin's good! "

Mrs. Qiao's mouth opened and closed, and she couldn't speak for a while. Who doesn't know that the imperial examination is one of the ten thousand, that is, what if the young people are young, and some people are too old to win the jinshi! Her daughter has a distinguished background. Where can I find a poor show to speculate?

Mrs. Qiao took a deep breath and barely pressed the anger in her heart, and said lightly, "Thank you Shizi for worrying about Sister Lan, I have already made a marriage for Sister Lan."

Nangong Yuan took a meaningful look at her, and looked at the stage again, but didn't smile.

The meaning of that glance made the other husbands secretly think, and some whispers familiar to the neighbor, Mrs. Qiao's face was blue and white, just felt that everyone was pointing to themselves.

At that moment, the sound of gongs and drums, three-strings, and flutes on the stage stopped, and the sing of the opera was over, and the actors on the stage stepped out of the stage.

Nan Gongyi glanced at the leaking pot. Although it was just a 40% sing, but he unknowingly passed half an hour.

Nangong Yan looked around, and the husbands and wives of the house were usually in charge of the family's feedback during the weekdays. It was hard to find out that going to the banquet and seeing the theater could be regarded as relaxing, but those young girls were afraid they couldn't sit still.

Nangong sighed and proposed with a smile: "Sister Sister, it is better to accompany a few girls in the garden to take a look at it. The Xiangxiang Pavilion by the lake is also a quiet and elegant place. You young girls can also go there. Chat there and relax. "

Mrs. Tian secretly was a little funny, in fact, the world concubine was not very old, and she was not late, but at the moment, she was a bit old-fashioned.

Xiao Yan stood up and blessed the blessing and said, "Dasao said so." Xiao Xiao's temperament naturally sat and lived, but today she is the master, and she always has to show her master's style and help her. That's it.

It was said that several little girls beside him could not restrain the excitement. They could not sit still for a long time, but they were afraid that it was the Zhennan Palace, so they would not dare to let it go.

The girls stood up in twos and threes, one by one as if they were to be released from the cage, which made the ladies feel funny.

A cute voice suddenly sounded: "Cousin, rare ladies are present today. How about fighting with pictures?"

Everyone looked at the sound, and saw a young girl wearing a brocade satin green rose tight skirt looking at Xiao Yan innocently, it was Du Xinmin, the daughter of Du Liancheng.

Du Xinmin seemed innocent, but with a little provocation in his eyes. She has always had a good relationship with Qiao Ruolan, but she doesn't have a good opinion of this cold-hearted cousin, especially when sees Xiao Xiaowei's life as Nan Gongji's order is obedient, and she has a slight contempt. Thinking of that day when Xiao Yan refused to fight with Qiao Ruolan at Huanxi Pavilion, he felt that Xiao Qiao was afraid of Qiao Ruolan's talent.

This time, it is necessary to make Xiao Yan ugly!

Xiao Xun's heart didn't have those twists and turns. Du Xinmin said that it was a fighting painting, and she also regarded it as an ordinary fighting painting. She nodded and said, "Cousin Min's proposal is good, so let's go to Xianxiang Pavilion to play. All right, "she said, looking around at the girls." Girls are whatever. "

Nangong gave Du Xinmin a faint glance, and said with a chuckle, "Since there is a fight for painting, let's comment on the leader, and I'll make a good point."

Regardless of whether this thing is precious or not, Shi Zifei is always glorious. The little girls all had bright eyes, whispering to each other, full of interest. Those who did not intend to participate also developed a bit of interest, and several girls stood up and went downstairs with Xiao Yan.

After the young girls stepped down, the second floor became quite empty for a while, but soon, the actors on the stage came on stage again, and they sang "Drunken Golden Branch" again, this time singing the most lively in the drama. One-off play. Seeing the "wine strong and intimidating" Ma Maye raised his fist to beat the princess ... The ladies were laughed, and the second floor from time to time launched a burst of sharp laughter.

The play was fold and fold ... About half an hour later, there was a painting sent by the girl-in-law.

The maids spread the paintings neatly on each large case, and several ladies couldn't help looking at the painting frequently, and they whispered each other ...

When the opera was finished, Nangong Xu simply instructed Lu Ye to let the opera class stop singing for a while, then stood up and invited the ladies beside him to appreciate the paintings.

About a dozen paintings have been released at that moment in the big case. Of course, the paintings drawn for more than half an hour are naturally not brushwork, but mostly freehand landscape paintings, mixed with a few freehand flowers and birds. , Are vertical strokes, ink color flying.

These paintings are anonymous. There is no style and no poems, so after looking at it for the first time, most ladies really can't see which one is painted by their own daughter or granddaughter.

At this moment, the thrush came up holding a mahogany tray. On the tray were dozens of colorful silk flowers. These silk flowers suddenly caught the attention of the ladies.

Nangong Nian nodded to the thrush, and thrush and a few little girls gave the silk flowers to the ladies. The ladies observed the silk flowers secretly, and saw that these dozens of flowers were all different colors. The flowers were bright and delicate, and the materials were exquisite. At first glance, they were made by Shizi's own maid or needle room.

Nangong Ai explained with a smile: "Girls are fighting for paintings, ladies may as well help to evaluate them. If you think which one is good, put down a silk flower. Which one has more silk flowers, whoever is the chief. What do husbands think? "

When Nangong Yan proposed this, everyone in the husband listened with bright eyes and echoed with eloquence:

"Good idea for Princess Shizi!"

"Let's make fun together!"

"Oh, I watched these girls draw well, and didn't know which one to choose ..."

"..."

In fact, Nangong Yu is the concubine of the world, the highest status among the people, and it is from the Shilin family. Even if she is the leader of the painting today, others take it for granted. Nangong Yu let everyone participate, which is lively. Just a moment, everyone is happy. However, she was so careful at her young age that many ladies were thoughtful, and sighed again in her heart: she is indeed the lord of the royal seal!

The husbands held various silk flowers in their hands and commented on those paintings.

Nangong Ai sat down and drank tea. After looking around a moment ago, she already knew roughly which of the pictures might be the first.

After the ladies looked at the painting again, they saw that Mrs. Qiao had the first action, and decisively cast the yellow silk flower in her hand into a landscape painting, and then, two or three ladies also cast the silk flower. Gave that picture.

Jiuer immediately lowered her voice and said something in Nangong's ear ...

Nangong Yu slightly hooked his lips, and did not stipulate that mothers should not throw silk flowers to their daughters. Moreover, Qiao Ruolan was indeed talented.

After the ladies watched it two more times, they dropped the silk flowers one after another ... After that, the children, thrushes and thrushes went to count the silk flowers.

It turned out that it was a coincidence that two paintings had received ten silk flowers.

The girls took out all the other paintings neatly, leaving only a freehand landscape painting and a colorful freehand peony drawing.

"Concubine," Mrs. Tian suggested with a grin, "Would you rather choose the last leader?"

This proposal could not be more appropriate, and immediately attracted the responses of the female guests, and Mrs. Qiao's face was rigid for a moment, and she did not speak against it.

"I'll be disrespectful then." Nangong stood up calmly and walked to the two paintings.

I saw that the freehand landscape painting on the left painted the river with surging pen and ink, the peaks and peaks are lush, the clouds are smoky, and the layout of the painting is dense and dense, and the ink color is suitable.

And the freehand peony picture on the right, both ink and color, the bright and colorful peony is bright, but not gorgeous, the whole painting is elegant and refreshing.

These two paintings are indeed quite good, and it is no wonder that they can stand out in a good work.

The thrush took a tray and presented a purple silk flower to Nangong Yu. Nangong Yu twisted the silk flower and put it on the freehand peony picture ...

As Mrs. Qiao's pupils shrank, the words of interrogation almost came out of her mouth, but she finally managed to hold back her senses.

Finally, another lady who chose the landscape map asked a little puzzlingly: "Sir concubine, I don't know where this peony map wins? In my opinion, this landscape map is extraordinary, more beautiful than this peony map. There are many atmospheres. "

Between words, Xiao Yan, Qiao Ruolan, and other girls' homes also staggered up the second floor along the stairs. Just when they heard the lady's words, they looked at Nangong Yan with a glance and wanted to see how she would answer. .

Nan Gongxi smiled lightly and said, "I chose this peony picture. The first picture is really extraordinary, and the other is that the peony is so beautifully drawn. It must be the painter who sees it with his own eyes. Observe it carefully before he can paint. Out! "

Nangong Rong did not comment on the landscape painting any more, but the meaning is already clear, meaning that this landscape painting is not the artist's own eyes, but is it a imagination, or a copy?

The husband and wife looked at each other, and soon someone thought of it, suddenly speaking to the person next to them with ears, and occasionally heard the words of Fuchun Mountain floating out ...

Nangong Gong's eyes glanced at Qiao Ruolan's face as if at the bottom of the pot. Although Qiao Ruolan's painting skills are extraordinary, her painting is just a patchwork of the mountains and rivers in the "Fuchun Mountain Residence Map", but the beauty is beautiful, but there is no What spirituality.

Nangong yelled, "I don't know which girl painted this peony picture?"

As soon as the voice fell, a crisp voice said, "It's Hua girl!"

For a while, everyone's eyes were focused on a girl with a satin collar and a satin collar. Nangong Nian remembered the Chinese girl and smiled slightly at her. This little girl is indeed a little interesting, and the city gate painted in Huanxi Pavilion was also very flavorful.

The Chinese girl was a little embarrassed, but she nodded slightly in front of everyone.

Bai Hui came over holding a box of rosewood. The box was exquisitely made with detailed and intricate patterns engraved on it, and people could not help but secretly guess what was inside.

Nan Gongxi gestured to Bai Hui to open the box, and saw that there was a set of pearly South Pearl head and face, but it was just a glance. Many of the sharp-eyed ladies present saw that this was an authentic Nanhai pearl, and it was still top-quality. They can almost imagine that under the light, the pearls on the beads, earrings, earrings and other accessories will exude a moving luster like a bright moon!

This pair of Nanzhu head and face is not only valuable, but also given by Shi Zifei. It will also be used for dowry in the future.

Mrs. Hua couldn't help but show a happy look, and gave her daughter a loving look.

The girl Hua stepped forward, and thanked Nangong Yan, and took the box respectfully with both hands.

Many girls surrounded her with joy.

Behind the crowd, Du Xinmin looked at Hua Hua for a while, and Xiao Xiao for a while, and his face was not very good-looking. She proposed fighting today, hoping that Qiao Ruolan would win and Xiao Yan's face. Whoever thinks, Xiao Yan doesn't take any action at all!

Just now when she was fighting at the Xiangxiang Pavilion, she tried to provoke Xiao Yan to participate in the painting. Who knew Xiao Xiao looked at her with a strange look and said, "Cousin, I am the master, how can I compete with the guests for my grandma? What about Cai Tiao? "Xiao Yan's eyes that were" too ruthless "made Du Xinmin's face pale, but he was silent and speechless.

Du Xinmin had to admit that his cousin had really changed! Not so confused ...

At this moment, a little girl came upstairs, walked quickly to Nangongyu, and Fushen said, "Hey, concubine, big girl, Mrs. Fang, here to see you ..." The appearance of "who is not good and who is not good".

Although the second half of the little girl didn't say anything, Nangong Yu already understood it.

Everyone at the scene also heard that the banquet was more than halfway. Seeing that the party was about to end, Mrs. Fang's appearance at this time was extremely abrupt.

If she received the post too late, then she would be late for this one. She might as well not come, and choose another day to apologize; but if she did not receive the post at all, or she originally refused to accept it, then Now rushing hurriedly, naturally there is another picture.

The ladies were all looking at each other, and they really didn't leave or stay.

Xiao Yan frowned, while Nangong Yan raised her eyebrows slightly, and said with a smile: "Go and invite the mother-in-law here." Madam Fang San is expected to come, even if she does not invite her, she also I will try my best to make this scene.

After a while, I heard the footsteps coming upstairs "stirring".

A lady with apricot-colored makeup and flower-women, Fang San took a 14-year-old, beautiful-looking girl to the second floor. She looked around proudly, and then fell on Nangong's body with her head raised. Came over.

As soon as she came up, she said angrily: "Sir concubine, I always thought you were virtuous and virtuous, but I didn't expect to be so filial! Your mother-in-law is now bedridden because of a serious illness, and you don't need to sit by the bedside to help you. What a reason to host a banquet here! "

"My sister," said Mrs. Qiao, puzzled, "what happened to my brother?"

Mrs. Fang said with a sigh of sigh, "Hey, my sister, you don't know anything. I just went to see my four aunts and she was too sick to be able to get up. It was pathetic. Her daughter-in-law was so surprised. She's still having a big feast here, talking and laughing. "She said with a look of indignation," Sir concubine, if you do this, you can still have the word "filial piety" in your heart? "

Madam Qiao suddenly became angry, and asked Nangong Ai: "How can you do this, concubine?" ... When Sister Cai Lan asked your mother-in-law, it was really irritating. Han! Even if you are the lord of the county and the concubine, you should do your part! "

Nangong looked at them calmly.

The two of them sing and sing together are tacit, it is a pity not to be on the stage!

After that incident, Nangong Yu also felt that Mrs. Qiao would not come to the banquet. Unexpectedly, Qiao's post was replied the day before. Nangong Yu is not naive to think that a man with a strong desire for control such as Mrs. Qiao will pull down his face and repair with himself.

It was here to sing this out.

Oh, this is a torment, and the man is still unwilling.
