As soon as Yue Yutong's voice fell, Zhou Huaiyu took the lead in applauding.
The other girls applauded when they saw the Zhou girl from the Wu'an Hou Mansion, no matter what they thought in their hearts.
"It's the first time I've heard of Miss Yue's statement, it's novel and wonderful. Flowers have been praised by everyone, but how many people have seen the green leaves, just like everyone in this world only sees those who stand at the top and enjoy the results, but no one sees the workers who are silently dedicated at the bottom, so I said, the first place in today's flower arrangement is Miss Yue, can you agree?"
Originally, everyone was still a little unwilling to let Yue Yutong steal the limelight, but after listening to Zhou Huaiyu's ulterior explanation, where would they disagree.
Almost all of the girls present are from the families of low-level officials, knowing that their father is tired and tired in the court, but they are still worried about the scolding from the upper peak, but when they really make achievements, they are all promoted and rich, and they have nothing to do with their father, so their father went home to drink and sigh, and he was depressed and unhappy。
Yue Yutong received the grateful glances of many girls of the same age for a while, and she looked at Zhou Huaiyu with shining eyes.
She admits that she is not a showy person, she can become a close friend with Chen Xiran, a very important point is that Chen Xiran has a warm and cheerful personality and likes to talk, and she likes to be quiet and listen, and the two of them have become a complementary pair, so they can become good friends. And today she would make such a move, because after seeing Zhou Huaiyu appear, the way so many girls present stuttered at her made her feel dazzling and extremely uncomfortable.
There is a saying that "one will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither", and Wu Anhou was able to be made a holy marquis and get his current status, isn't it all the corpses piled up by the soldiers under his command who have died? But everyone only saw the dignity of Wu'an Hou's Mansion. And Miss Zhou, who is the concubine of the Marquis of Wu'an, chatted with the women with a "arrogant" expression, revealing her nobility everywhere, which made her feel cold for those poor women.
So she deliberately used this flower arrangement competition to insert leaves, and she also knew that her actions would definitely arouse the interest of this Zhou girl, and then use this as a metaphor for her own thoughts, of course, she didn't expect Zhou Huaiyu to understand her thoughts at all.
But on the contrary, this girl from Hou Fuyan, who could only pose in her eyes, actually understood what she meant, and said such a thing in front of everyone, she naturally would not look at her with her original eyes.
Zhou Huaiyu saw Yue Yutong's gaze and knew that she had guessed her true thoughts, and a little appreciation for this Yue girl really rose in her heart.
The flower arrangement competition ended in such a happy way, and the girls were looking for all kinds of opportunities to brush their faces because Zhou Huaiyu was able to say this, looking forward to this girl being able to know herself, so as to mention a sentence or two in front of the elders in the family, if you can let your father be promoted, it is really a great luck.
When it was time for the banquet, everyone gathered together, and Zhou Huaiyu knew that he should find an opportunity to explain today's purpose.
"Hey, it's a pity that Miss Chen prepared this sumptuous table, I can't eat it!" Everyone was waiting for Zhou Huaiyu to announce the opening of the banquet, but she suddenly raised her chopsticks but sighed and said this, and then put the chopsticks down.
The women could only put down their chopsticks, and then they all focused their eyes on her face.
Sure enough, Chen Xiran frowned and asked puzzledly, "What's wrong with Sister Zhou?"
I'm waiting for your words!
"I'm not afraid of being embarrassed, everyone should have heard about the recent events, after all, it's so big!" Zhou Huaiyu looked around with a little sadness, and where she saw, people began to avoid her gaze, because everyone knew that she was talking about that incident, and everyone thought that this matter was definitely not glorious for her, and even a shame.
Zhou Huaiyu didn't give anyone a chance to interrupt her, and as soon as her voice fell, she continued: "I and Su Rongyi, the third son of Su in the Marquis of Wenchang, were married a year ago, but at that time, how did I know that Su Gongzi and my cousin Bai Susu had already been in love, and their feelings were secretly born!" This year, I was preparing to get married at home, and Cousin Bai often came to play with me, but she never mentioned these things to me, if she mentioned it to me earlier, I would definitely go to the elders in the family and ask them to give me a refund of my relationship with Su Sangongzi, after all, I am not related to Su Sangongzi, and I am not familiar with each other at all!"
Because of this incident, everyone basically understands the relationship between the Marquis of Wu'an, the Marquis of Wenchang and Bai Susu very thoroughly, so everyone knows that the Su family of the Marquis of Wenchang is only the maiden family of the Su family, the mother of Zhou Huaiyu's mother. And the stepmother is not synonymous with good at any time, so it is reasonable that Zhou Huaiyu is not close to the Su family.
"Now that my wedding date with Su Sangongzi is approaching, who knows that Su Sangongzi and Cousin Bai suddenly made such a fuss at someone else's banquet, of course, it is also to blame that I suddenly left early that day, if I was present at the time, I would definitely immediately tell Su Sangongzi to contact the marriage contract, let him and Cousin Bai stay and fly together, and there will be no more trouble. ”
With Zhou Huaiyu's words, many girls present have begun to show excited expressions, because Miss Zhou's words prove that the rumors are still somewhat reliable, such as Bai Susu and Su Rongyi couldn't help but steal at the bamboo forest banquet hosted by Miss Xie, it is true!
Listening to gossip is a common characteristic of everyone, and even Yue Yutong, who admits that he doesn't like to inquire about things, widened his eyes, looking forward to what earth-shattering news Zhou Huaiyu will say next.
"I, Zhou Huaiyu, am not the one who beats the mandarin ducks, and now I know that Su Gongzi and my cousin are stronger than Jin, but I have to intervene in public, I can't do it, so when the matter came out, I asked the elders in the family to withdraw from the family, but I haven't retreated until now, I don't know what went wrong! I'm thinking about this matter all the time, if this matter is not solved, I don't think about tea and dinner, and I don't feel comfortable doing anything, so I plan that if it can't be solved in the next two days, I will go directly to the commander and let him, the parent official of our capital, call the shots for me!"
