Chapter 104 Osmanthus Brewing Rewards
Bao Qi felt funny when she heard this, if it was in the previous life, she would definitely mock her mouth, "Is Miss Zhao talking about yourself?"
Of course, now she also wants to say, but the occasion is not right, in addition to the constraints of identity and status, she doesn't want to be a shrew who ruins someone's birthday, so she pursed her lips silently and didn't make a sound.
She didn't make a sound, it didn't mean that others didn't make a sound, Bao Qi immediately heard a muttering in her ear, with dissatisfaction and disdain, and even mockery, "Isn't the other person yourself." ”
Qi Zhu's voice was very small, but it was enough to be heard by a few people next to him, and the maids and ladies who were farther away naturally couldn't pay attention, as soon as this sentence came out of Qi Zhu's mouth, it passed into Zhao Wenxin's ears by taking advantage of the position.
Zhao Wenxin's originally smiling face instantly stiffened, Bao Qi glanced over, and could find the corners of her lips that twitched forcibly, and a trace of luster that was extremely incommensurate with her appearance flashed in her eyes, this qiē was only for a moment, and the smile was still hanging on Zhao Wenxin's face, soft and lovely,
"But, since we're a game, we don't have to take it too seriously, who is this osmanthus brew, it's better to make a game again, let's write a bamboo stick, don't write your name, put it in a small bamboo tube, and finally see which girl, let our sisters value it the most, how about tasting this osmanthus brew for us?"
Zhao Wenxin stretched out his little finger, not feeling rude, but adding a bit of innocence, even the ladies next to him laughed, and some people even joked to Mrs. Zhao, "Wen Xin, this girl, has always been a person with many ideas, but today it seems that it is really painful!"
Zhao Wenxin was praised by others, and no one objected to this idea when it was proposed, the girls covered their lips and chuckled, and soon a small bamboo stick and a thin pen were placed in front of them, dipped in some ink, which was quite charming.
Bao Qi smiled silently in her heart, fortunately, she had learned calligraphy for a long time. Otherwise, today, it's really difficult to do it everywhere.
The little bamboo sticks were written quickly, and the girls were also taught to read. Writing is even more elegant, the movements are natural and delicate, where it looks like writing, but it looks like a posture.
There were seven small bamboo sticks stuck in the bamboo tube, and Miss Zhao pursed her lips. Looking at the bamboo tube, he smiled and said, "Since the girls have written it, why don't you ask the ladies to take a look, this good osmanthus brew is to be rewarded to which sister, and it will make us envious when you say it." ”
Qi Zhu rolled his eyes, just facing Zhao Wenxin, Bao Qi smiled silently when he heard it, this is like someone who can't be drawn. You can't drink it, you want to drink, and no one will stop you!
Bao Qi was thinking about it, Qi Zhu moved closer to Bao Qi, and gently touched Bao Qi's hand, I don't know whether to share the same hatred or comfort Bao Qi, Bao Qi smiled at her with relief, saying that it was okay.
The maid carefully placed the bamboo sticks on the table, just so that several ladies could see them. Only then did he lower his head and step aside.
When the bamboo sticks were placed, everyone's faces were different, some were surprised, and some were smiling. Some people understand, some people regret it, and in the end, I don't know who sighed, and said half-laughing, half-true, "This result is really interesting." I'm old, I don't understand you young people~"
As soon as these words came out, the other ladies also accepted the affection, so as not to affect the whole atmosphere, after all, this is still Mrs. Ling's birthday, and it is not good to spread the blatant bad people's happy things.
In the end, the results were announced, and Miss Zhao won three votes and Bao Qi won four votes, winning by a narrow margin and receiving the reward for this wine tasting.
Zhao Wenxin thought that he would get the votes, but he didn't expect it to be three votes, which is a little unsightly, two of the votes must have been voted for by the businesswoman of the Qi Mansion, and who is the other vote, Zhao Wenxin smiled half-coquettishly, "I didn't expect the sisters to look up to it so much, in fact, even if I don't have these three votes, I have to ask the young lady for a drink." ”
Bao Qi felt funny, and at the beginning of what he said, he expected Bao Qi to lose, so he drank it if he wanted, and he begged like Bao Qi, it was difficult for him to say that he wanted to occupy this pot of wine, and he also smiled faintly and said,
"This wine was immediately invited by Miss Zhao, if Miss Zhao likes it, how dare Baochai win people's love, even if Miss Zhao drinks it, it doesn't matter, how can there be anything to say about it. ”
Zhao Wenxin babbled twice, and at this time, he came out with everyone's beautiful appearance, took away that pretty appearance, with seriousness and a little style, and first joked mischievously, "The young lady is going to play tricks, the sisters are all watching, Sister Baochai can't rely on the account." ”
"The young lady doesn't know, this osmanthus brew is the wine of Lingfu, we are fortunate to drink this wine today, but pray for Mrs. Ling's birthday, and be blessed~"
Bao Qi picked up the osmanthus brew in front of him, smelled it very elegantly, and then slowly said, "This osmanthus brew is really a good wine, Bao Chai is really fortunate today, can drink this wine, think of this name although the name is long, and the outside of the vulgar things can not be compared with the time, just smell it, I feel that it lives up to the reputation, think that if someone really makes a few noises and abandons it, it is really shallow, it is really not a good wine in this world." ”
Everyone listened to Bao Qi Haosheng praised this osmanthus brew, although there is a suspicion of patting horses, but this is someone's birthday, don't everyone come to shoot horses, who still thinks who shoots horses, it depends on who shoots well, praise is good.
Bao Qi's praise was sincere, and the tone was also sincere, it really provoked Mrs. Ling to laugh inappropriately, and humbly said that it was too good, but it was just an ordinary drink, and everyone praised it.
Everyone also praised a few words of osmanthus brewing, and since then it has become more famous, and it is difficult to find a cup for a while, which is a later story.
It's just that in Bao Qi's praise, the hidden meaning is not that everyone can't hear it, every sentence is to poke at the Zhao girl, but no one will poke it, such an obscure thing, naturally went in a good direction, the Zhao family and the Ling Mansion have a good relationship, even if everyone's status is not shallow, but they also know that no one should be offended, and they all understand it very well in their hearts.
After Bao Qi finished speaking, he bowed his head slightly, paused at Zhao Wenxin's wine cup, expressed politeness, and then gently covered his cuffs, brought them to his lips, sniffed the aroma and wanted to drink it.
"Mother, Lang'er is late. ”
In a word, Sheng Sheng stopped Bao Qi's movements, and Bao Qi was about to continue, but he heard the voice continue, "I smelled the aroma of osmanthus brew from a distance, and I heard the sisters chanting poems, I was really interested, and Lang'er couldn't help but come to play." ”
At this time, Bao Qi and Zhao Wenxin's wine had not yet been eaten, and Ling Lang had already taken the lead in making a gift to Mrs. Ling, and he smiled casually, his eyes flashed, staring at Zhao Wenxin's face.
