Chapter 66: The Festival of Beggars

After the worship, I thought I could eat, but I had been hungry all day, and I was so hungry that my chest was pressed against my back. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

What, ladies and gentlemen, you said that I didn't eat a lot of Qiaoguo before, why am I still hungry?

Ladies and gentlemen, I am a woman who can easily eat two bowls of beef noodles on the top two seas, and those lucky fruits are not enough to stuff my teeth. And it's not a regular meal, at best it's just a snack.

As a result, the begging festival has only just begun, and my meals have become far away.

Yingcui seemed to be the host of the event, and very calmly began to preside over the first begging festival when the princess married into the prince's mansion, and it is estimated that when she was in the Zhongguo Mansion before, she should have presided over this type of activity.

First of all, the wife and three concubines of Duan Hong, the son of the world, and four personal maidservants, have to conduct a needle-threading competition, and determine this year's "needle-threading begging holy hand", and the reward is a golden hairpin.

Chang Liangren and other concubines, although they don't care about a golden hairpin, they care very much about the name of the holy hand of needle-threading and begging. And I don't care about these two rewards, before Duan Hong forced me to embroider, when my hands were pierced into a sieve by needles, but the embroidery skills have not improved much at all, but it has left a lot of psychological shadows, so far I can't help but tremble when I see the needlework. As soon as the needle reached my hand, I was already shaking to the ground and couldn't find it.

There are two of my personal maidservants, Yingcui is in charge of the work, and the peach participates, she keeps comforting me with her eyes and shaking the needle to the ground, with a look of confidence and inevitable. And the faces of the others were exactly the same as hers, and they looked like they were facing a great enemy. I thought to myself: As for it? Isn't it just a needle, a thread, how to make one by one keep up with the battlefield, ready to be generous and righteous.

With Yingcui's order, the competition of threading the needle began, I stood aside to watch the excitement, only to see that everyone put the thread in their mouths first, and then one by one they stared at their eyes into cross-eyed, a pair of hands flew up and down, and in the blink of an eye, the winner had appeared.

I was dazzled by my eyes, and when I opened my mouth wide to marvel, Peach had already raised her hand, and ten needles were neatly threaded on a thread. This little girl really came out on top, I threw an approving look at her, and she was proud and proud, just like the general who returned triumphantly, unceremoniously inserted the golden hairpin on her head.

An Ruren glared at her personal maid Ruhua, and Chen Ruren comforted her maid and said that it didn't matter, they had to make persistent efforts to win the crown of the next game. Chang Liangren's face was flat, not showing unhappiness, but there was a strong unwillingness suppressed in his eyes.

I patted Taohong on the shoulder and praised her twice, and at this time Yingcui had already announced the start of the second competition program, which was "skillful paper-cutting".

Yingcui took out a sample of a cowherd meeting the Weaver Girl on the Queqiao Bridge, and asked the contestants to cut out exactly the same paper-cut according to this pattern, to see who took the shortest time, which was the skillful paper-cut.

I can still do the work of threading the needle before, but what is the paper-cutting thing, I can't cut a little person with paper, where can I cut out what is the cowherd and weaver girl dating on the magpie bridge, even if I cut a magpie, I can't do it. And I'm really worried about what I'll do if I cut my own hand! When I was worried, the competition had already begun, I took the scissors and scratched on the paper for a long time, and when my eyes touched the edge of the scissors, I immediately gave up the idea of giving it a try.

The game of paper-cutting is Chang Liangren's personal aunt who won the crown, and Chang Liangren's personal maid is called Xuebi, which I have seen before. But in this competition, Chang Liangren came prepared, obviously wanting to use this aunt's ability to add glory to her and win the championship.

It is said that this aunt's name is Aunt Xia, and she used to serve at Chang Liangren's mother's side, and later when she married into the Shizifu, she was ordered to wait by Chang Liangren's side, and she was a calmer person like Chang Liangren, it should be said that she was calmer and deeper than Chang Liangren, and the expression on her face was not much different from when Yingcui had a cold face.

Chang Liangren smiled and praised Aunt Xia for doing a good job, as if because she was happy, she couldn't help but show off that Aunt Xia was the most agile and realistic person in her house.

Indeed, the paper-cut cut out by Xia Gu is not only fast, but also very smart and realistic, on the magpie bridge composed of rows of magpies, each magpie has a different appearance, all of them are vivid as if they want to jump on the paper and spread their wings and fly.

I'm really not very interested in these daughters' games, but if it's wrestling and boxing, I'm willing to participate. Lacking interest, I wanted to end the event as soon as possible, and when I heard that there was only one last competition game called "Carved Melon" left below, I almost clapped my hands as if I had seen the light of day.

Chang Liang and Chen Ruren, as well as An Ruren, seem to be not very interested in this carved melon competition, and it seems that the event can end soon. Crispy duck, sauce elbow, I'm here, I'll hurt you later.

As a result, I was happy for less than five seconds, and Duan Hong suddenly appeared in the courtyard of the Warm Fragrance Pavilion uninvited. As soon as he appeared, Chang Liangren suddenly swept away the depression and malaise just now, his eyes were shining, and his eyes were full of skill, and from the moment Duan Hong appeared on the stage, he had been stuck to his body and never left.

Duan Hong walked up to my side and stretched out his hand to take my hand: "Concubine Ai, it's late for this palace, what show are you doing now?" “

"Carved melon."

An Ruren rushed to answer with a charming smile, she looked at Duan Hong's peach blossom eyes, constantly discharging, seducing her soul, but she didn't forget to glance at Duan Hong's hand with envy.

I was a little embarrassed and wanted to withdraw my hand, but Duan Hong's strength was very strong, and I struggled a few times, and then let him hold it to no avail. But I still can't help but scold: On the festival of a woman's family, a big man came to join in the fun, why is he everywhere, it is really indebted. I'm dizzy, why am I still so angry with Duan Hong that I came out of the Northeast.

"Today, the concubine and others are trying to carve melons, and the palace is here, so I will fill in a reward."

Speaking of this, Duan Hong seemed to be deliberately selling off, paused, and looked at me.

I'm dizzy, this guy has a bad smile on his face. I remembered that before, Chang Liangren and others played the killing game of closing your eyes when it was dark with me in Nuanxiang Pavilion, and Duan Hong later rewarded me with sleeping with me for one night, tonight, should he give the same reward again.

Chen Ruren, who had a tired face before, ordered someone to take her set of special carved knives when Duan Hong appeared. When he heard Duan Hong say that he wanted to increase the reward, his eyes were as wide as two 200-watt light bulbs, and they were glowing green. As a result, after Duan Hong showed that his extra size was a golden silk coat, Chen Ruren showed a disappointed expression, and it is estimated that she had gone with me before.

The golden silk clothes, which are gorgeous clothes embroidered with gold wire, light and thin like cicada wings, golden as the stars in the sky, are also a magic weapon to seduce men, just thinking about the appearance of the golden silk clothes on the curvaceous beauty, it is enough to make people's blood gush and bleed all over the place.

I still have no interest in it, and a garment embroidered with gold thread is less attractive to me than a gold bar in front of me. It's not that I'm open to money, but when I run away in the future, there's nothing more tangible than gold bars.

The competition carved "flower melon", only the four wives and concubines of Duan Hong, headed by the Chang family, participated, and a personal maid was allowed to play on the side. When Peach handed me a carved knife similar to a scalpel, I couldn't help frowning and complaining: The old lady is not a cook, where did she get the skill of carving cold dishes!

Duan Hong's eyes were staring at me with great interest and ugliness, and his eyes did not hide his ridicule. This pervert, if it's okay, he just takes pleasure in seeing me ugly and unlucky, and I really want to bite him to death.

After Yingcui announced the start of the carved melon competition, the three tables around me began to be busy, and I stared at the dustpan of fruits and vegetables in front of me, and I didn't get my hands on it for a long time.

With a worried urging from my side, I picked up a carrot and gestured for a long time, finally looking at the other competitors beside me.

Chang Liangren wants to carve a picture of "Queqiao Cowherd Will Weaver Girl" on the green skin of the watermelon, as long as the knife is lightly knifed, careful not to hurt the cyan inner pulp, it is not a difficult technical job. But for me, Chang Liangren's ability is already amazing.

An Ruren is even more desperate, she wants to use a few fruits and vegetables, combined together, carved into the shape of a dragon and phoenix, called "Dragon and Phoenix Chengxiang", I just looked at it, and I felt that it was so complicated that my head was dizzy.

However, there are mountains outside the mountains, and there are people outside the people. Chen Ruren, wielding her own carving knife, actually wanted to carve a huge piece of tofu into a peony flower, which was completely beyond my imagination, beyond the scope of human ability, and I was so shocked that my jaw was about to fall to the ground. This guy is definitely going to win.

My gaze was forcibly pulled back by Peach, and the carrot I was holding in my hand was covered with heat, and the corner of my eye swept to Duan Hong's sneering eyes looking at me, and finally began to move. Alas! No matter what, just carve a flower to deal with it, it's better than doing nothing, dry pestle is much better here.

However, I seem to have thought too simply, and when I started to do it, it was rare that I was sweating straight down. For a long time, I just cut the carrot in my hand into two pieces. Everything is difficult at the beginning, go down the first knife, and then it will be easy to do. However, the remaining carrot in my hand seemed to be a little too small, and I was hesitating to change it again, when I heard the sound of being finished next door, so I had to put the small half of the carrot in my hand in front of me and began to carve it with full attention.
