"Sister Yao, so you're here! let me find it!" At this moment, a playful voice suddenly came. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
There are several people surnamed Yao here, and everyone is looking for the owner of the voice. I saw a little girl in a gold-sprinkled magenta shirt coming over with a smile on her face.
Yao Keqing felt that this girl was very familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it for a while.
The little girl obviously also noticed that Yao Keqing didn't think of her, and couldn't help but pout a little disappointed and reminded, "Sister Yao, we only met at Sister Ten's house a few months ago......"
Yao Keqing then remembered who she was, "It's the seventeenth miss of the Su family!
Su Qiqi immediately laughed when he heard this, "My cousin-in-law came with me today, but I got separated from my cousin-in-law, and there is no one I know in the courtyard, I just heard others talk about the two sisters of the Fang family, so I wondered if Sister Yao also came together, so I came to try my luck! I didn't expect Sister Yao to be here!"
In this way, Su Seventeen's works have also passed the primary selection, it seems that it is really a person who cannot be seen, Su Seventeen looks innocent and coquettish, but he doesn't want to have a lot of skills inside.
Obviously, the few people sitting there didn't expect that Su Qiqi, who was so young, was so capable, and seeing that she was lively and cute, they all started to tease her, and Miss An Er no longer held Yao Keqing to learn, and Su Qiqi coped with everyone's laughter easily.
Miss An Er sat for a while before she was called away by the girl, but Su Qiqi stuck to Yao Keqing and didn't rush to find her sister-in-law, Yao Kerong couldn't help but be curious, "I haven't seen your sister-in-law for so long, and I don't know when she will be able to find her?"
Su Qiqi said calmly, "It's okay, my sister-in-law will definitely be waiting for me in Jinxiu Hall when the evaluation starts later." ”
Yao Kerong thought that when she was separated from Xiao Miao just now, Miao also told her to go to Jinxiu Hall to meet later, so she didn't ask any more. Seeing that the people around him were going in the direction of the Splendid Hall, he proposed to go to the Splendid Hall.
Jinxiutang is a three-story hall, which is said to be the place where the first emperor Weifu came to listen to the play in private. Directly north is a three-zhang square stage, and at this time there are already shelves set up on it, and two rows of chairs are placed under the stage, and I think that the shelves will be used to hang the entries of each family for a while.
Xiao Miao left a girl to wait at the door, and when she saw Yao Kerong and others, she hurriedly greeted her, "Madame is waiting on the second floor!"
When he saw Su Qiqi on the side, he couldn't help but be stunned, and Su Qiqi also said goodbye to Yao Keqing with interest, "I'm going to find my cousin-in-law!"
The second and third floors are all for the powerful or familiar families, and the first floor is also some ordinary people, Su Seventeen's father is just a petty official of the sixth grade, so naturally he can only go to the first floor.
Before I sat down, I saw a group of people walking in, it was the master's family, the wives and embroiderers who participated in the review.
Walking in the forefront, the gray-haired is the biological mother of the queen, the old lady of the Funing Hou Mansion, and the eldest sister-in-law of the Queen Mother who is holding her left hand, now Mrs. Funing Hou, followed by the young grandmother of the Hou Mansion, the old lady is her nephew and daughter-in-law on the right hand, the Lady of the British Duke, the British Duchess followed her two daughters-in-law, and the British Duchess walked side by side with her younger siblings, the third lady of the British Mansion, looking at the same age as the eldest and young grandmother, the little girl who followed behind the third lady was An Yuhu.
The old lady of Funing Hou stood still in the center of the lobby, and everyone sitting quietly quieted down, and the old lady cleared her throat before saying, "Thank you for appreciating your faces, the coarse tea and light rice are not well greeted, and please bear with me!"
"Where, where ......"
"The old lady is polite......"
The guests were polite, and the old lady continued, "This embroidery competition is mainly to celebrate the happiness of the queen, and we also want to touch the joy of the queen! ”
The old lady was already a little out of breath when she said this, and the British duchess hurriedly continued, "Later, the girls will bring out your entries one by one, and among the twenty judges, if half of them give excellent or good evaluations, they will be deemed to pass, and if half of them give medium or low evaluations, they will not pass, and the approved works will be hung on the wooden shelves on the stage for display." ”
After speaking, the judges were invited to take their seats, and then everyone in the An family sat in the master's seat on the left.
A gong sounded, the evaluation officially began, two girls holding the brocade box on the stage, open the brocade box, unfold the embroidery inside to show the judges, it is a national color of the sky, the color is bright and eye-catching, the judges exchanged a few words with each other after reading it, and quickly gave an evaluation, got six excellent, ten good, four in, no down, this is passed, the girls will hang the embroidery on the wooden frame on the stage.
The girls went up and down the stage in an orderly manner, the judges made comments calmly and relaxedly, and the audience whispered from time to time, guessing which work belonged to which girl.
Nearly half of the embroidery has been hung on the wooden frame, but Yao Kerong's work has not yet appeared, Yao Kerong can't help but be a little nervous.
Xiao Miao smiled and comforted, "Sister Rong, don't worry, I see that many embroideries on that table are not as good as yours, and yours will definitely be able to choose." ”
Yao Kerong smiled and took a deep breath, but he was still unsure in his heart, his eyes staring at the stage downstairs.
Finally arrived at Yao Kerong, the girls unfolded the picture scroll, Yao Kerong was nervous to stand up, and was pushed back by Yao Keyi.
As soon as Yao Kerong's work came out, there was a moment of silence in the splendid hall, and then suddenly it became lively again, "Is this a painting?" An older lady beckoned the girls to hold the scroll closer, "Hey, this is embroidered again!"
"There is embroidery in paintings, there are paintings in embroidery, and it is rare to be able to combine embroidery and painting so seamlessly!"
"It's an embroidery competition, and it's really nondescript to be half painted and half embroidered!" the lady commented.
Yao Kerong suddenly became nervous. At this time, the evaluation downstairs has been completed, thirteen excellent, five good, two down, passed.
Yao Kerong couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and Xiao Miao whispered to Yao Kerong to say hello, "After passing this level, no matter whether you can get the top ten in the end, or whether you can present it in front of the queen's mother, it will give Yao's family face!"
Yao Kerong blushed and said, "Thank you to the second sister!"
"That's it, Sister Qing'er is indispensable!" Xiao Miao echoed.
"That's also the eldest sister's embroidery, I just did the repair work, it's really not a credit. Yao Keqing didn't want to steal the limelight with Yao Kerong.
Yao Kerong was about to say something more, but there was an exclamation from downstairs.
