Chapter Twenty-Three: The Good Wife of the Lower Hall Wants to Turn Over (3)
You don't need to look closely at Qi Yan to know that the woman in the middle is Yao Ruolan, she is wearing a pink gauze skirt, her hair is gently pulled up with a hairpin, and the looming veil on her face makes the pair of Danfeng eyes even more charming. She is not dressed as frivolously as ordinary dancers, but with an elegant and intellectual beauty, which is inferior to those rich daughters, and she is more able to put down her body to cater to others than those rich daughters, and she does not need to be so strict with etiquette, and occasionally showing a delicate and lively side can capture the hearts of some big men.
After a commotion, the sound of gongs and drums, followed by the sound of horses' hooves from far and near, the man at the head of the man rode on a tall horse, and exclamations continued to sound all around, even those young girls who had always been reserved couldn't help but show a crazy look, and they all sighed how could there be such a good-looking person in the world, even if he was compared to the bright moon in the sky. Qi Yan glanced at it and looked away, since she was not the object of the task, she didn't need to pay attention, she looked to the side, only to see that one step behind, there were two people riding brown horses and following the champion, the one on the left was slightly older, and the one on the right was still very young, although the appearance was only mediocre compared to Zhuangyuanlang, but the victory was in a gentle temperament, and he always had a decent smile on his face, nodding and responding to the cheering people beside him, in the contrast between the cold and arrogant Zhuangyuanlang and the older leader, it added a bit of popularity to him.
The person on the right is Wen Qiyan's husband Xu Yitang, who is twenty-three years old this year, and can be regarded as young and promising. Qi Yan looked at him, seeing him behaving like this, a trace of disdain flashed in his heart, this person and Yao Ruolan are really a couple, both of them look gentle and harmless on the surface, but they are more vicious than anyone else in their hearts! Qi Yan still wanted to make the two of them a pair in his heart, so that they would not harm others again.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please stay, today's spring is just right, Lanerte is waiting here, I am willing to dance for you, congratulations to you on the title of the gold list!" Yao Ruolan stood up and bowed to everyone, and with her movements, her slender figure revealed a perfect silhouette under the gauze skirt, which made all the men look stupid.
The music sounded slowly, Yao Ruolan and the other four dancers twisted their waists and danced together, the dress made of light yarn on her body was blown by the wind, looking beautiful, Qi Yan dared to guarantee that most of the men on the scene were not watching the dance, but looking at her figure, which is indeed a means to attract men. At the end of the song, Yao Ruolan put on a final pose and smiled, Qi Yan knew her tricks, and the veil would definitely fall off when she laughed, so that her beautiful smile could make everyone feel amazing. This incident has also been heard many times from Yahuan's mouth in Wen Qiyan's memory, and it is said that Xu Yitang and Yao Ruolan promised each other for life in each other's eyes because of that smile.
But how could Qiyan let her succeed? She wanted to see if the two would promise each other for life without that shocking glance. At this time, in order to watch Yao Ruolan dance, many onlookers crowded over, Qi Yan pretended to be squeezed out of the crowd and left Xu's mother's side, Xu's mother's eyes were on Xu Yitang at this time, and she didn't pay attention to Qi Yan leaving, Qi Yan grabbed a bird with one hand, and grabbed a handful of mud that looked like it was pulled out from under the tree with the other, and at the moment when Yao Ruolan's veil fell, Qi Yan immediately threw the bird and mud with both hands.
Everyone's eyes were on Yao Ruolan, and when they saw that she finished dancing, she was about to start applauding, when suddenly her veil fell, and everyone opened their eyes to see the appearance of this beauty, but they didn't expect a black bird to suddenly rush out, hit the beauty's face, fluttered twice, the bird flew away, but the beauty had a black unknown object on her face, everyone was stunned for a while, but some people had already begun to applaud, and they forgot to stop at this time, and some of the people who coaxed laughed and applauded, in everyone's applause, Someone still heard the hysterical screams of the beauty, which was completely different from the soft voice before!
Qi Yan chuckled lightly twice, then wiped his hands clean and returned to Xu's mother without a trace, Xu's mother's good mood at this time was also affected, as if Yao Ruolan's failed performance would discredit her son, "Really, what do you want her to perform, now it's okay, everyone will remember this joke today, and I don't know how many days to say it!" ”
Mother Xu originally heard that others were praising her son for his promising, but she was attracted by Yao Ruolan's trouble, and today was a good day for her son's scenery, but such a thing happened, what kind of congratulations is this, it's almost the same slap in the face! Mother Xu complained, and when she saw that Qiyan was stunned and didn't know how to echo herself, she was angry, "Don't learn from those foxes, now that our cousin has passed the Tanhua exam, your identity will be different, you must pay attention to your words and deeds, don't lose face to our Xu family!" ”
After Xu's mother finished speaking, she didn't wait for Qiyan to speak, anyway, she also knew that her daughter-in-law was a stuffy gourd, and she didn't expect her to say anything nice to please herself, if it weren't for her family's good reputation and her father's mentorship, she wouldn't let her son marry such a wife! Mother Xu finally squeezed forward again, hoping that her son could see herself, if her son talked to herself in front of everyone, then everyone didn't know how much they would envy her!
However, when Xu's mother worked hard to squeeze to the front, she found that her son was no longer on the horse, she looked around and finally found Xu Yitang's figure. At this time, Xu Yitang was holding a woman in his arms, it was Yao Ruolan who was dancing before, Xu's mother's face was dark, and she could only stare hard at her son who was close at hand. But Xu Yitang's eyes are now all on the beauty in his arms, where can he still pay attention to others. Although the beauty is not like a beauty now, her face is dirty, but Xu Yitang knows Yao Ruolan's beauty, this time it was just an accident, besides, the beauty is in her arms, and what you can see is not only the face, but also the graceful body under the tulle, and the tip of the nose can still smell the charming fragrance of the beauty, which makes people can't help but kiss Fangze.
Yao Ruolan is very glad that she made the right bet, although it is different from her original plan, but now her goal has been achieved, and her relationship with Xu Yitang is closer. But thinking of the bird that flew inexplicably, she felt very depressed, and it was also very strange, and she must ask Shi An to check whether someone was deliberately making her ugly and ruining her good deeds! At the beginning, she was really stunned, and when she realized that others were laughing at herself, she couldn't help but almost reveal her true face, fortunately, she had experienced a lot of things before, and there were no problems when she appeared on stage in the song and dance workshop, so she quickly calmed down, glanced at Xu Yitang with tears, and then ran down the flower building, and when she passed next to Xu Yitang, she pretended to step on her skirt and fell to the ground, she was just betting, betting that he would be a hero to save the beauty, after all, before he passed the exam, Although she didn't have contact with him alone, when he watched her dance and sing, she would always look at him a few more times, and he always looked at her with deep affection, sure enough, she guessed right!
"Childe, Childe get out of the way, the concubine is dirty, don't stain Childe's clothes!" Yao Ruolan said the words to let Xu Yitang leave her alone, but a pair of weak and boneless hands grabbed Xu Yitang's arm and didn't let go, although the pitiful look on her face was a little funny, but her timely bowing of her head was even more pitiful.
"It's okay, clothes are things outside the body, how can I leave you alone for a piece of clothing." Xu Yitang said calmly, his appearance makes people think that he is a gentleman who helps others.
"You are not the only living person here, but there are so many people brought by the woman herself, but I want you to be troublesome!" As Zhuang Yuanlang's cold voice came, the horse he was riding also seemed to take a few steps impatiently, Xu Yitang looked up, only to see a pair of eyes looking at him condescendingly with disdain, "If you want to do more, that's your freedom, don't delay our time, I still have something to do, so I won't play with you!" ”
Zhuang Yuanlang said and looked at the crowd of onlookers in front of him and said, "Get out of the way for me, otherwise my horse won't recognize anyone!" ”
Seeing Zhuang Yuanlang's domineering side, the masses' impression of Xu Yitang immediately improved a lot, and even some people began to talk about Zhuangyuanlang's bad character, which was not as enthusiastic as Xu Yitang.
"Husband." A beautiful female voice suddenly came from the noisy crowd, the voice was not loud, but it attracted everyone's attention, the previous Wen Qiyan was not used to appearing in front of too many people, so many people don't know that Wen Qiyan's appearance is better than Yao Ruolan, she is not the kind of flamboyant beauty, her beauty is contained in her words and deeds, and she has poetry and books in her belly, her knowledge is not Yao Ruolan's kind of only can write a few poems and write a few words can be compared, their Wen family has been studying for generations, and there are several great Confucians, She has been influenced by such an environment since she was a child, and her temperament is naturally different.
Qi Yan ignored the surprised gazes of others, she learned Wen Qiyan's original posture, and helped Xu's mother to walk towards Xu Yitang's side.
Xu Yitang couldn't think of seeing Xu's mother and Qiyan at this time, but he was really a little incredulous, his mother and wife he knew very well, if he didn't write back they would never take the initiative to come, so he felt very surprised, so that his expression at the moment looked a little frightened, and it happened that he was holding a woman in his arms, so it looked like his husband was bumped into by his wife, Xu Yitang also realized that others looked at him with inquiry, and his heart became more and more unhappy, Shen Sheng asked, "Why are you here?" ”
